    That option is only available after upgrading to iOS 5 or higher. Prior to that you will need to connect to your syncing computer and use iTunes.

  • HT4623 After I went to Settings General there was no software update button, any suggestions as to what I should do?

    Has this happened to anyone else? The "Software Update" button was gone and I'm trying to update my software, is this common? Where could I find it? (
    My laptop isn't working well so I'm avoiding it)

    This feature is ONLY available when you are running ios 5 or later.
    You would need to update as always - open itunes, connect iphone

    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.

  • 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.

  • How do I remove Facebook contacts from my Contacts list on my 4S???  I've already gone into iCloud settings and Facebook is not even an option to turn off and I've gone into "Groups" in my contact list and Facebook is not there either.  How do I stop this

    How do I remove Facebook contacts from my Contacts list on my 4S???  I've already gone into iCloud settings and Facebook is not even an option to turn off and I've gone into "Groups" in my contact list and Facebook is not there either.  How do I stop this??

    Hmmmm...maybe try deleting them again (I know it's a pain) and then doing a manual icloud backup (unless you already did this). Icloud may be putting them back on there. I never allowed FB to put the contacts on my phone lol. Also try going into Privacy and Contacts...make sure FB isn't on in there. Might be a few other spots to check under settings to make sure too. And...you might want to try deleting the FB app, do a icloud backup, and then reinstall FB

  • I have an older version of Firefox 3.6.6 I believe I am having an issue with one of the websites I sign into. Is there any way to update to the newest version

    I have an older version of Firefox 3.6.6 I believe I am having an issue with one of the websites I sign into. Is there any way to update to the newest version. Without losing all my bookmarks and saved pass words?

    Hello johngervais, the latest firefox version is 26.0 (today 4 Jan 2014).
    note that [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-some-versions-windows-xp Firefox no longer works with some versions of Windows XP], if you have '''xp with sp2 and above''' you can update to latest version, see : [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/26.0/system-requirements/ Firefox 26 System Requirements]
    if you are able to update to latest version then see : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36 Common questions after upgrading from Firefox 3.6]
    see also : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-just-updated-why-it-asking-me-update-again Firefox just updated - why is it asking me to update again?]
    Don't worry you won't losing bookmarks and passwords after update firefox.
    thank you

  • HT4623 I go to Settings but there is no Software Update option.What should I do?I really need to download Ios6

    I am trying to download ios6 for my Ipad2.I was told to go to Settings and then software update.my problem is that there is no software update option ...what can I do now?

    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.

  • HT4623 My iPad does not have the automatic software update and I do not know how to download IOS if under settings there is no software update button available. Do I have to reset my iPad and lose data?

    My iPad does not have the automatic software update and I do not know how to get IOS 6 onto it. When I go into settings there is no software update button.

    If you are really on iOS 5 then look in Settings > General > Software update.
    Otherwise:
    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).

    Probably because you haven't updated iTunes to version 10.7.
