    If it is a 3GS you cannot update it to 4.3, you can only update it to iOS 6. Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer, connect the phone, click on its name on the left, then click the "Check for Updates" button on the right.
    If you can't connect to your home WiFi try rebooting the router.

  • HT4623 How do you update iphone 4 ios version 4.0.1

    My Facebook app was crashing so I deleted it and tried to reinstall it but it says that I have to have IOS 4.3 to install.  I tried getting on FB through Safari and it still crashes there.  How do I update IOS on my iPhone 4? It doesn't have a place to update in the General section.

    You cannot update your operating system to anything other than the current one, which is iOS 6.0.  The safest way to do that is to download it in iTunes on your computer.  After the download is complete, you can connect your phone and update it.  Allow a number of hours for each procedure.

  • I update my IPhone4 to IOS6 from IOS4.3.3. My all songs are missing in the Iphone4. How to get those songs into my Iphone from ITunes. Even after sync also not coming to IPhone.

    I update my IPhone4 to IOS6 from IOS4.3.3. My all songs are missing in the Iphone4. How to get those songs into my Iphone from ITunes. Even after sync also not coming to IPhone.

    The iphone is not  storage/backup device.
    The sync is one way - computer to iphone.
    The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

    Do you mean that you want to update your iphone that currently has 4.2 to the newest software 4.3.2?
    If so, then update it as you always do, via itunes.  Click Check for updates.

  • How do I update IPHONe 3

    How do I update Iphone 3G please

    In my  point it's not even  worth  upgrading too IOS 6 on a IPhone 3GS.
    But if you really want too  then connect your  iPhone 3GS  too iTunes.  Then start the upgrade.  
    Note there is no going back. Too IOS  4.2  once you have upgraded 
    All so there is no youtub app and  and google maps is now call this appele maps
    When  you upgrade I would set your iPhone 3GS up has a new  so you can get a nic clean start
    Make sure you back up with iTunes. 1st
