There is no "software update" option in my iPad settings So how can I update to IOS 5.1.1?

You only get the Settings > General > Software Update when you have iOS 5+ installed on the iPad - if you are on iOS 4 then you will need to do the next udpate via your computer's iTunes.

  • HT4623 I do not have a software update option under my general settings.  How do I update to ios 4.0 to get free apps???

    I do not have a software update option under my general settings.  How do I update to ios 4.0 to get free apps???

    ... and the option to update the software from the iPod using Settings/General is not available on iOS 4 or earlier.
    You can get free Apps with iOS 3.x - providing they will run on the version you have. That's dependant upon your model of iPod. So before anything else, which version of iOS do you currently have on your iPod and do you know which model you own?

    I don't have the software update option in my settings. How can I update my phone so I can download apps?

    Are you referring to updating the iOS? Software update for the phone has nothing to do with downloading apps. The only time the OTA software update for the phone iOS was after iOS 5. If you are looking to update applications, then go to the App store and select updates.

  • HT5457 I do not have software updates on my iPad 2. How can I update

    I would like to update my iPad 2 to iOS 6 but there is nothing in settings for software updates. The support site shows that there is an icon under general just below "about" but this does not exist on my settings. How can I update if I don't have this feature?

    From iTunes on a computer.

    You can't. iOS 5 requires an iPhone 3GS or better, or a third generation or newer iPod touch.

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
    You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • HT4623 I don't have a software update option on my iPad 2. How do I install IOS 6?

    How do I install? Also how do I get the software update button to appear in my settings option?

    If you are running an iOS version under 5.0 you will not have the update software option show up in settings>general. You will need to download the newest version of iTunes from iTunes.com and install it on your computer if running Windows, if using a Mac you need at lest OS X 10.6.8 to install the newest iTunes from the software update. Once you have iTunes installed on your system just plug in the iPad and it was let you know that an update is available for download and install to the iPad. Make sure you do backup/sync your iPad before updating to the newer iOS.

  • Can't update Firefox from version3.0.10. Firefox option is NA under automatic update. Check for updates is NA under Help menu. How can I update?

    On my Windows Vista 64 bit laptop, I have Firefox version 3.0.10.
    I want to update to the most current version but all update options are grayed out.
    On the automatic update screen under Advanced Options tab, the word FIREFOX is grayed out, so I can't select it.
    Under the HELP Menu, the CHECK FOR UPDATES is also grayed out.
    Somehow, something has happened along the way & now my Firefox can not/will not update itself.
    I do NOT share this computer with anyone & I am the Administrator.
    How can I get it fixed so it will automatically update Firefox again?
    And how do I find out what the latest version # of Firefox is?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Firefox won't update - tho I have OSX 10.5.8 it keeps saying I have too old an OS. The auto-update for Firefox is greyed out. How can I update?

    I have a Mac Powerbook G4, running OS X 10.5.8. I'm getting messages from Google that Firefox is an old version and needs updating - so I went to the Firefox website and the message said that "Unfortunately the latest version of Firefox isn't compatible with your computer's operating system. Learn more." When I click Learn More, it says that Firefox only works with OS X 10.5 and 10.6...The auto-update box for Firefox is greyed out and un-clickable in Firefox preferences, there's no manual download that I can find - how can I make Firefox recognize my OS and allow me to upgrade? Many thanks.

    PPC Macs aren't compatible with Firefox 4.0 and later versions.
    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ <br />

    Or use Firefox 3.6.22. <br />

  • Adobe Updater for Acrobat Pro 9.0 FAILS - how can I update??

    My company has about a dozen machines that run Acrobat 9.0 Pro on Windows XP sp3, or Windows 7 sp1.  In the past few months, I've had to reinstall Acrobat 9.0 on these machines for various reasons.  Every single one of them is still at the 9.0 version because Adobe Updater fails to upgrade.  Adobe Updater is trying to download Adobe Acrobat 9.2.0 (CPSID_50026) and fails with "This file cannot be verified"
    I've also tried downloading and installing AcroProExUpd910, AcroProStdUpd910_T1T2_incr, AcroProStdUpd910_T3T4_incr, AcrobatUpd920_all_incr, AcrobatUpd930_all_incr, AcrobatUpd940_all_incr, and none of them will install.  They fail with an error a windows installer error indicating that the path to the program may be missing or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. 
    Is there any simple way to fix this so I can update these individual installations???

    All of the updates are available at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows. Looks like about 14 updates (lot fewer than all the security updates for Windows though). As I indicated there is a process for combining them into a cummulative update, but that is only something I can mention so that you might look in the old Acrobat forums that is read only and see if it is there. In the enterprise topic they give a link to http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobatitinfo to help in this regard. If you are only doing a few cases, it may not be worth the time to combine, but just put them on a memory stick and go around and install them. Most of them cannot be skipped, but must be installed in order. You should be able to get away with out rebooting between versions and simply wait to the end. That would save a bunch of time.
    If the update does not work from the help menu, then the download is your next option as I have indicated. If it works from the help menu it may save you a lot of time, but apparently you are not going to be that lucky.
