HT4623 i want to update my iphone3

i want to update my iphone3

as in update the software?
if yes, basically you connect it to your comp and open itunes. usually it'll prompt you to update the software, or else just follow the instructions on the screen. but i'm unsure if you'll be able to update your iphone3 to OS5 cos sometimes apple's newest OS is incompatible with certain older models. hope this helps!

    Try runing iTunes in admin mode. That fixed the issue for me. You can either right click on the shortcut on your desktop and choose to run as an admin each time you launch it or go to the advanced tab under security on the program itself and click the run as admin every time.

  • HT4623 I want to update my software over 3G

    My wi-fi doesn't work ,i want to update my software over 3g,,
    What should i do?
    Thanks,

    Sorry, but I don't believe you can. The iOS updates are almost always too large for the limits put on downloads over a cell network. If your WiFi isn't working and you can't get to a place, such as an Apple Store, where it will work, you'll need to update through iTunes on your computer. See the section titled "Update your device using iTunes" in this support article:

  • HT4623 I want to update my iPad

    I want to update my iPad to the current operating system from 4.3.3. When I go to settings and then general I don't see an update option. Please advise. Thanks

    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.

    You have to be running iOS 5 in order to update via the iPad settings. You are running 4.3. You will have to update via the latest version of iTunes on a computer. After you update to iOS 5.1.1, you will be able to do OTA updates from the settings on the iPad.

  • HT4623 I want to update my iphone4

    I haven't updated my iphone4 since ios 4.3.1, can i now update to ios 6.1?

    In any version of the iOS prior to iOS 5.0 you must connect your device to a computer running iTunes. You might also, at this time update your iTunes to the latest version which is iTunes 11.
    Start iTunes on your computer and connect your device. Select your device in iTunes and select Summary from the row of tabs presented. Then scroll down to Check for Updates.
