HT4623 I want to install an app that requires iOS5 and my iphone is 4.2.6 How do I Update my software for my iphone 4?

I want to install an app that requires iOS 5 update. How do I update the software on my phone when I do not have the icon in settings for update software? Please help!

Connect your iPhone to iTunes, and find Software Update in the main interface pane. It should prompt you to install iOS 5.1.1.

HT4623 My original iPad is running OS version 5 and update tells me it's up to date, but I want to install an app that requires OS 6 or higher. what can I do?

My original ipad is running iOS 5 but I need 6 or7 to run an app I want to install. Software update is telling me that it is up to date and does not offer 6 or 7

Click here and follow the instructions. If you can't get a compatible application version, you need a newer device.

I just made a new account and i placed the account in my ipod but now its asking me submit a payment method which i do not want to place because i do not want to purchase any app that requires money. how can i use my account without giving a payment metho

now asks me to put in my payment method. i do not wish to place it in because i am not looking forward to purchase any app that needs to be paid for. How can i use my account but not give in my credit card data?

Create a NEW account/ID using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

HT1338 I have version 10.5.8, but want to install new printer that requires 10.6 or higher. It states my software is up to date. I have tried to download higher updates, but says not compatible. Do I have to buy new software or can I update?

I have version 10.5,8 and want to install a new hp photoshop 5520. It states I need 10.6 or higher? Can I download or do I need to buy snow leapard or mountain lion?

If you're using a PowerPC Mac, it's already running the highest OS version it can.
If you're using an Intel Mac, phone the online Apple Store and order a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.

IPod touch Gen3 cannot download apps that requires iOS5.

but when im going to update the software of the iPod the error 3194 or unknown error occur. i read the apple support instruction but for me it was so complicated. is there any simplified way to resolve this problem? thank you

Are you sure you really do not have a 2G iPod? Those can only go to 4.2.1. If you try to install an latter version you will get the that error.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

I'm afraid your Posting does not make sense. Can you restate it and give more details as to exactly what it is you are trying to do or want to do?

MMy credit card has no money right now but I still want to install free apps, how can I do that?

You are going to have to get a different credit card, or purchase an iTunes gift card.

HT4623 I've installed several apps that won't rotate to landscape. Lock rotation is off in settings. Is it the apps that don't have the ability to rotate or some setting on my iPad3? Thanks, CH

Not all Apps offer that feature...

HT1414 How do I get apps that require iOS 5 on my Iphone 4S with the latest version of 6.0.1 currently installed on it? I cannot install many of the apps I want to use and am not sure what to do. Thank you.

I am not very good at navigating the Iphone so please be patient. I have an Iphone 4S with the latest 6.0.1 and I would like to be able to download some of the apps that require iOS 5 on my iphone. How do I do that. When I look for the iOS 5 update it is no longer available. I found that it is supposed to be available on Itunes. I have not found it on Itunes. All help is appreciated. Thank you.

Well, no. It's because that the iPod 4th Gen has iOS 6 and the apps need iOS 7. I suggest that you get the new iPod 5 because it has iOS 7. Also the iPod 4 does not have enough CPU or RAM. The new iPod 5 has enough CPU and RAM to store iOS 7 apps.
Thanks!

I can't seem to install some apps that i downloaded for my iPad from my Mac. i have tried syncing them but they still don't appear on the pad. how do i go about this?

These are iPad apps correct?
Do you have restrictions set on the iPad? Settings>General>Restrictions>Installing apps>Off or Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content?
Are you sure that the Apps are selected to sync from the Mac to the iPad?
Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.
Click on Install next to the apps that you want to sync.
Click on the Sync Apps Heading to select it
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
If you do not see the sidebar in iTunes 11 - go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu.

HT4623 Twice I have connected my IPad to my computer and requested the upgrade to IOS 5.01 and twice I have not for some reason received the upgrade. What is going on and what am I doing wrong? I can't get some Olympic apps that require it.

I do not seem to be upgrading to IOS 5.01 correctly - twice I have connected to my computer and received notification that all current upgrades are being added but when I try to download apps that require 5.01 I am told that I do not have a system that is upgraded for this. What is the problem and how do I remedy it?

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

How can I tell where an app was installed? I share my iTunes account with family And wanting to install an app and it shows I've already installed if.

If you are seeing "Installed" in the Purchased section of your iPhone, then it only means that the app is installed on your device. Is that where you are seeing the "Installed"?
