Facebook froze so I deleted it and tried to upload it again but I do not have ios5. My iPad does not have a software tab under settings. Help!
Do you sync with iTunes? If you do, your Facebook app should be in your iTunes library and you can simply sync the old version back to the iPad.
If you want to update your iPad, back up first and sync first and you should have no worries.
You only have the option in Settings if you are already running iOS 5. If you are trying to update the iOS, you have to use iTunes on a computer to update the iPad.
From iOS 4 or lower - Here are the instructions.

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 are updating using wifi, locate your iPad close to your router so you don't get a wifi dropout (can cause update corruption).

I have an iPad 2 and I want to ugrade the sftware to iSO5. When following the instructions I am told to go to Settings / General/ Software Upgarde to then down load the Update. The iPad 2 does not have Software Update under General so how do I install iSO5?

HT4623 My iPhone does not have "software update" in Settings under General
Hi,
I have an iPhone 4. It has the software it came with - iOS 4.3.3 I believe. I want to upgrade it to iOS6 but I'm not sure how. First, in my settings under general, there is no "upgrade software" section. Second, do I need to upgrade to iOS5 first before I upgrade the phone to iOS6? Also I ended my contract with AT&T months ago & they still have a "no sim" message on my ipad2 (successfully upgraded to IOS 6 after I upgraded using the macpro laptop computer I have to upgrade it to iOS5 it took forever to upgrade to 5 and only 20 minutes to upgrade to 6) anyway, back to my iPhone 4 - I use it on my wireless network at home. I do not use it as a phone and don't plan to. But I use it for so many other things around the house (stay at home mom) like calendars and email and a book. Can anyone help me with the questions I have about upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS6 without losing the newborn baby photos of my 7 month old?
Thank you!!Only iOS 5 and later can be updated "over the air". If you want to upgrade your iOS you will need to do so using iTunes.

HT4623 My iPhone does not have software update.
I have an iPhone 3gs. It's current version is 4.2.1. I have tried to update it through iTunes, I have also tried to update by my phone but can't find software update anywhere on my phone. It is ment to be under "Settings" - "General" - "Software Update". Can anyone help me with this please? Does the iPhone 3gs even update to the latest version out?
That feature is only available with ios 5 or later.
You will need to update as always. open itunes, connect iphone -
I have a tower running windows XP, using Firefox 3.6.23. I have a new laptop running windows 7. I have just downloaded firefox 7. Now I want to bring the bookmarks form my old tower computer using firefox 3.6.23 to the new laptop using firefox 7.0. I got the instruction on how to sync the two computers, but I cannot find the sync tab under options in the firefox 3.6.23 computer. Will upgrading the tower's firefox to a newer version give me the sync tab under options?
With firefox 3.6 I think you may have had to use sync as a separate add-on. If so try finding and installing that. Alternativly export your bookmarks from Firefox 3.6, then move that file, using any suitable method (eg removable media, email atacchment, computer network) to somewhere the new laptop can access it and imprt the bookmarks. Remember
* back up your bookmarks (on both machines) before doing anything
* importing standard firefox bookmarks overwwrites existing bookmarks
* (if you just have a few bookmarks on one machine, consider exporting as HTML, when you import those they will append, instead of overwriting the existing files)
See
* [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
* [[backing up your information]]
* [[importing bookmarks and other data from other browsers]] -

HT4623 My IPhone does not have software update button.....
I would like iOs 6 and ICloud installed to my IPhone 4 but I don't have a software update. How can I get iOs 6 and ICloud??
You must upgrade through iTunes. That feature requires iOS 5 or later which you apparently don't have. So see:

2. iPhone Support
3. iPod Touch Support
4. iPad Support
a. Updating Your iOS to Version 6.0.x from iOS 5
Tap Settings > General > Software Update
If an update is available there will be an active Update button. If you are current,
then you will see a gray screen with a message saying your are up to date.
b. If you are still using iOS 4 — Updating your device to iOS 5 or later.

my iphone 3g does not have software update..... Go to Settings > General > Software Update ...... NOT THERE
No. It doesn't. That is only present if you are already running iOS 5 or higher.
Since the iPhone 3G can NOT run anything higher than 4.2.1, you will never see it on that phone. -
