HT4623 i have an iphone 4 but when i go to general n settings there is no option as software update . pls help
i have an iphone 4 ios 3.1.3 which is outdated . i went to settings , general but there was no software update feature . its on all other phones same models which myfriends have . can anyone help.
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.

Correct.
That is a feature of ios 5 and later.
Since you do not have ios 5, you do not have that feature. -

how can I update my iPad 2. I go to Settings>General but Software update is not there
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

Can't figure out how to update software to os5 on my iPad. When I go to general there is no option to chose download software. Help. What do I do?
Thanks!The option to update from device was only brought in with iOS5, so as stedman1 says you'll have to connect to computer and use iTunes.

My iPhone has backed up to iCloud but when I open iCloud on my PC there is no option for photos.
My iPhone has becked up to iCloud but when I open iCloud on my PC there is no option for photos. I have no idea where they are saved. Help?
You can't view pictures on icloud.com, and you can't view anything in your backup without restoring it to your device. If you want to view pictures on the web, you have to add them to a shared stream with the Public Website option enabled (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). This will give you a private url to view them from your browser.

how can i get ios 7 in my ipad 2? i have tried to update it but in my setting>general there is no icon for software update.so help me please!
If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

I have a mac but am experiencing the same prompt? "iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server because you are not connected to the Internet. Make sure your Internet connection is active and try again."

Trying to update my LG G2, when I go to Settings, About, there is no option for Software Update..
I am trying to update my LG G2, when I go to Settings >> About >> there is no option for "Software Update" .. what else can I do?
4.4.2 was the last update. Now, in the same section look at Build Number. Mine says VS98026A. If yours ends with 26A, you are current. The last update was for HD Voice called Advanced Calling 1.0. Our next over the air or OTA update will be sometime next year, probably near March. The G2 is already getting 5.0 Lollipop in Poland and is rolling this way. We will get it, but even though Google has released the source code and update to manufacturers, Verizon still has to test, add to it and approve it, then roll it out over the course of a few weeks or months.

I use 2 accounts, one for work and one for personal.
I have Microsoft Office, in my applications, and I can find it in my work user account, but when I try to open it, it keeps doing start up for Auto updates. and wont open the application. It works fine in my personal (Admin) account which is where I did migration when I bought the laptop. And I've looked on here for similar problems, and everyone says if it's in your applications it should work, but I can't open mine.
Anyone know what I can do?Go to the main Library folder and look for a folder called Application Support / Microsoft.
There are a few folders in there, and you may have to do some digging. In one of them (mine is called MAU2.0), there should be a file called Microsoft Autoupdate. Open it.
It looks like this:
check the button for manual updates.
That should let you open the apps without triggering an automatic update. -
