Assuming you are not a Developer registered with Apple you are using pirated ( stolen) software
Not a clever idea to ask for help onthe Apple hosted forum

HT4623 I have attempted to update the iOS to 7 on my iPad currently on iOS 5.1.1 When I select general software update, I get the message my iPad software is up to date and does not give me an option to update to 7. How do I resolve?

When attempting to update my iPad from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 7, I continue to get the message my software is up to date instead of getting a download prompt for iOS 7. Anyone else experience similar issue? If so, how do I resolve?

You can't resolve the issue, because the original iPad can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1 and no further.

Your iOS version is probably too old to support software update. You must update using iTunes on your computer.
Make sure your iTunes on the computer is current. Plug your iPhone into iTunes. Let it sync. Then choose "Check for Updates..." from the iPhone's summary tab in iTunes. That should od it for you.

HT201342 How can I find out if an address is available. I current use bullet12@. I would like to change my address to bullet@

How can I find out if an address is available. I current use bullet12@. I would like to change my address to bullet@

The only way to find out is by trying to setup a new iCloud account using the address you want, or creating an email alias in your current account.
See: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
It's highly unlikely that such a simple address is still available after over a decade of Apple letting people sign up for @mac.com, @me.com and @icloud.com addresses.

Go to Settings > General > About and see what iOS version you are running. If it is lower than 5, you won't find the software update button. It was added when iOS 5 came out. The current iOS is 5.1.1. To update to the current OS, you'll need to connect to the computer you sync with (this is important - do not connect to a computer you do not sync with as you will lose you apps) and update the software in iTunes. Once you have updated to the 5.1.1, the software update button will be in Settings going forward. Make sure you have a lot of time. Updating from below 5 to 5 or higher is a somewhat lengthy process.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

IPhoto just stopped working. It loads pictures, but then goes into rainbow wheel forever. Then I try to force quit it, and then the whole Mac hangs up (had to power cycle it to get it back). I am using OS 10.5.8, and when I run software update, it assures

iPhoto just stopped working. It loads pictures, but then goes into rainbow wheel forever. Then I try to force quit it, and then the whole Mac hangs up (had to power cycle it to get it back). I am using OS 10.5.8, and when I run software update, it assures me I have up to date software. I have not added any photos since the last time I used it, probably less than a month ago. What gives?

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Does iOS 6 beta 4 is the final official iOS 6?? i am not getting any update for my mobile (which is running iOS 6 beta 4 ) to update to official iOS 6

Take your backups and copy your photos off, then put your device in DFU mode to do a restore.

HT1338 do we get software updates if you are using a different apple id from the one used to purchase os x mountain lion?

Is it mandatory that the same apple id used for purchase should be used to get software updates? What happens if os x was purchased using one apple id and you use another to check for updates?

I think the operating system is the one exception to the rule that usually the purchase is linked to the Apple ID rather than the machine, but with operating systems (Lion, Mountain Lion) the purchase is tracked on the machine instead.

If I currently have iOS 6.1.3 installed on 4s, can I update to iOS 7.1.2?

I have downloaded iOS 7.1.2 from the apple website (http://appldnld.apple.com/) and I'm getting the following error when trying to update:
"The iPhone '...' could not be updated. This device isn't eligible for the requested build."
Is this because it is no longer officially possible to update to iOS7 or may there be some other reasons?

Believe what you want, I can assure you it is not an Apple website. You have to be very careful with internet sites, there are very many that impersonate the authentic ones to confuse the user into downloading malware and other non desirable things.
You cannot upgrade to iOS 7. Apple´s policy is that only upgrading to the latest version of iOS is acceptable. That is why you cannot update the software through the legitimate Apple website except to the latest version. This is currently iOS 8.3.
My advice is not to use the file you have downloaded. Of course it is your decision.

HT4623 How do I upgrade to iOS 5 as I do not have the software update handle in thecsettings.

How do I upgrade to iOS 5 when there is no software update handle in the settings?

You update via your computer's iTunes, the Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

I need to update to iOS 5 but my phone doesn't have "Software Update" in the "General" menu. What should I do?

When trying to update my phone I realize that the line "Software Update" which is supposed to be found between "About" and "Usage" in the General menu simply isn't there. Is there some way to fix this problem or to go around and update to iOS 5 in some other way?

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

Still getting "Software Update Failed" when attempting to download iOS 7 on iPhone 4S.

I've tried countless times now to download iOS 7 on my 4S which is currently running iOS 6.1.3. It downloads completely then in the "Preparing Update..." stage it gives me an error box saying "Software Update Failed. An error occurred downloading iOS 7.0." The same thing happens every time, I've rebooted and reset my pone several times as well as logging in an out of my Apple ID all with no success. It's not like it takes an unusual amount of time downloading or anything, and once it finishes downloading it shows less storage in the "About" section in "Settings" but goes back to where it was once it gives the error message. Just a note, I was able to download iOS 7 on my iPad 3 the day the software was released without a long waiting period or any hassle. I appreciate any input. Thank you.

Thanks for the response. I have 16.5 GB of available space at the moment. I've tried it connected to a wall charger and connected to my wifi, my schools wifi, and my gyms wifi all with no success. I have not tried it from iTunes but after posting this question a few suggestioned discussions came up, one of which recommended backing up to iCloud or iTune and then performing a complete restore. I'm in the process of doing that now, whether it works or doesn't work I will get back to either way. Thanks again.

I can't update my iPad iOS from version 4.3, there is no software update menu in the settings panel

I can't seem to find a way to update the iOS version on my iPad. It is at version 4.3.3. There is no software update menu option on the settings screen. The apple download page does not let me update it from there either.

You do not have iOS 5 on your iPad and so you don't have Software Update in the Settings. You have to update by using a computer via the latest version of iTunes. You can connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under the devices heading. Click on the Summary Tab on the right. Click on Check for Update.
After you update to iOS 5 or later, you will have Software Update in you settings and can update via WiFi OTA. But .... If you are using the original iPad you can only update to iOS 5.1.1.

When I'm restore my iphone ios 6.1.3 itunes shows error iphone software update server is temporary unavailable or can not be contacted

When I'm restore my iphone 4 ios 6.1.3 itunes showed an error you iphone can not be restore at this time because the software update server is not contacted or temporary unavailable.

Probably because the phone was hacked to unlock it. The update has re-locked it. You'll have to contact the carrier it's locked to and see if they will unlock it for you.
