HT4623 how to cancel software update to ios6 on iPhone 4

Hit update software w/o realizing it was going to update to ios 6. How do I cancel the download? Have it paused by suspending wi fi connection currently.

Good evening  everyone who is having this problem  listed as "How to stop the software update on iOS". Software update of iOS starts downloading in background if the iPad or the iPod or maybe the iPhone is connected to a WiFi network and is charging.If you just tap "Download and Install" and having any kind of problem in downloading the iOS update or your carrier is charging too much for that limit of data or the update is too large for your data plan and you by mistake tap the "Download and Install" and the downloading started and you switch off WiFi and again switch it on but the downloading resumes.It is very easy to cancel the iOS update.You can just fill up all the memory with any thing you want like Photos,Videos,Games,Apps  and when the memory becomes less than the size of the update the update will be cancelled automatically  and display an error message saying "The update was cancelled due less storage available please free up some storage". Thank You for asking your problem.

    I am using ipad 2.. And accidently update the software.... I am on the road.. How to cancel it,,,,.????

    It's never a good idea to interrupt an iOS update. If it has already started, I would let it continue until done. If it's still *downloading* the update, there *may* be a point after the download finishes where you may be able to cancel it but I'm not sure about that.
    If it has already been updated (downloaded/installed), then no, you cannot go back to the previous iOS version (if this is what you are wanting to do).

    i dont have the 'software update' option in my iphone 4 menu so how do I update the IOS?

    If you never upgraded to iOS5 then you won't have the option to upgrade your phone "over the air".  To do an upgrade, connect your phone to iTunes and select the phone on the left menu bar.  You will see an option on the main page to Check for Update.  Select that and your phone will update to iOS6.
    It is recommended that you do a full backup of your phone before you begin the upgrade process.
    Hope this helps.

    Several users are reporting a server problem with Software Update. Why not wait and try again later today or tomorrow to see if the problem is resolved.
    If the problem is on your computer then give this a try:
    Fix for Software Update
    See Troubleshooting Automatic Software Update in Mac OS X.
    Delete the following files:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.xxx.plist where "xxx" is a number.
    /Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate/ (delete entire folder)

  • How do i software update?

    How do i software update im stuck on OS X 10.5.8 and i cant update and when i click on software update it says im up to date in software,
    what do i do to get it moving?

    Snow Leopard should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
