HT4623 Upgrading IOS

Was installing an app that required an upgrade so I did the upgrade to the latest version without backing up and now it is locked up on "Updating iCloud settings." If I do not constantly tap the screen, it times out and stops. How do I get past this

Thanks for the help, it's interesting, I held them down for over a minute and nothing happened. After I released them the logo popped up and then it guided me through the rest of the setup questions. Like many people who have not upgraded their phones for the same reason, I am not a fan of the new look. Is there a way to "dumb it down" and install an earlier version. I need to upgrade but not all the way to 7.
Regardless, thanks again. It worked.

HT4623 Upgrade ios

I have the first version of the ipad and it has ios 4.2.1 - I'm trying to update it and can't (I am not very technically smart!)
I dont' have a software upgrade icon - that would sure make it simple!

See
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

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).

HT4623 The "Software Update" feature is not available in my Ipod 2nd Generation unit while the upgrade option in iTunes keeps on hanging while downloading the upgrade iOS (time out error). So, please tell me how I can upgrade the iOS.

The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5. The 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
Try disabling the computer's security software during the download and update.

Yes, you can upgrade iOS 7 for your iPhone 4.
Apple has been announced the beta 2 version, if you would like to use it,
register as developer and your device will be granted to use the beta iOS 7.
For your information:

Hope it would be helpful for you.

I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate. iPad 2, iOS 8.3

This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum.
Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled? It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing.

I have upgrade ios 6 to ios7 on my iphone 5. I do NOT like it at all. I want to come back to the previous version. why is it so complicated? Why can I not find the instruction strait from apple? This is the worst possible upgrade ever. It make me think of when ericsson got sold to Sony....drastic PC change.
I would like to have simple instruction on how to downgrade.
It feel like a change that I did not ask for , ok I push the upgrade buttom, but really this is the worst update aver!

How to upgrade iOS on iPhone when disk iTunes is installed on is virtually full

I'm trying to upgrade iOS on my iPhone. The PC that I run iTunes on is old and as such the C: has only a 40GB capacity and us virtually full. I have a symlink set up which points the default iTunes backup folder at a secondary, larger internal hard drive and I can back up my iPhone without any issue and not rake up space on C: (thanks to the symlink). However, when I try to upgrade from iOS 4.3 to the latest, iTunes complains that I have no free space and the I should free up 5GB which I can't do! I've got 1TB of available space on my network but iTunes only looks at the local disk when upgradin, giving me a scary "you'll lose all you data" type message when I try to progress. What are my options here? Uninstall iTunes and reinstall it somewhere with more space? Back up my iPhone, let iTunes wipe my data then restore from backup? Get Apple to fix iTunes? Sell everything and go and live in a commune with no electricity? Anyone got any idea? Thx

OK, I took your advice and tried to delete some of the 'crap', uninstalled a bunch of things, got Windows to 'Compress old files' and woohoo I now have 8.3GB free.
Tried the upgrade again and there's no diskspace warning, however, iTunes throws a 1303 error when trying to backup and gives a 'Continue and you'll lose everything' message.
I can backup without a problem using the Backup Now button in iTunes, but when it tries to do it as part of the upgrade it fails.
So I'm back to square 1 really after hours of harddrive 'optimisation'. Any idea how I celar the 1303?
Thanks

My 4 Gen with IOS 4.2.1 cannot connect iTune and I want to upgrade IOS.

My 4 Gen with IOS 4.2.1 cannot connect iTune and I want to upgrade IOS.
Q1) What's wrong with my touch that iTunes cannot detect it? What should I do?
Q2) Is there any method to upgrade IOS without connect to iTunes?

Have you lokked here. Do not omit the Addition Information paragraph if you have OSX 10.6

Does it charge?

After a backup, clicked on upgrade IOS via Itunes. Upgrade failed and now IPAD is locked, showing a graphic of a cable connector, an arrow and an Itunes symbol. Ipad is locked there. How to restore IPAD?

Upgrade my IPAD from 8.1.3 to 8.2 via Itunes (from Windows Computer)
First I backed up the IPAD via Itunes on my Windows laptop.
Then I click upgrade IOS to 8.2 on Itunes.
Later got a upgrade failure pop up window.
Now IPAD is locked with a blank screen showing a cable connector and an arrow pointing to Itunes symbol.
The IPAD does not boot, and the Itunes does not recognize the IPAD.
turning on/off the IPAD does not change the display.
How to restore or reboot the IPAD?

I rebooted the computer and tried once again using a different USP port. This did the trick!. I was able to run the IOS update and it stuck and timed out while the Itunes was indicating that it was verifying the IOS installation (on ipad I could see a grayed working bar). After it timed out the IPAD completed the task, and now it is working again.
Thanks!

I want to upgrade iOS from 5 to 6, but when I go to synch everything in preparation, it tells me I will lose all my stuff on the iPhone and iPad which is unique. How can I backup or do a "real synch" (both sides have same data) and then upgrade?

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

Why missing personal hotspot in my iphone 4s after upgrade ios 7 ?

why missing personal hotspot in my iphone 4s after upgrade ios 7 ?

I'm having the same issue (iOS 7.0.3 on 5s).
Had Sprint add Wi-Fi Hot Spot to my account today, went to set it up, and there's nothing in Settings for "Personal Hot Spot." Apparently it should appear underneath "Cellular" but it's just not there.
Resetting network settings didn't help. And Sprint doesn't know why it's not there either.

The backup that itunes performs does no include any itunes content ( apps/music/vids/etc).
You should have transferred any purchases to your computer.
If you failed to do this, then you will have to redownload:

haha, so now i'm thinking. I'm learning the terminal as fast as i can but there are several lines of codes and commands in there that throws up red flags to me that i don't fully understand. It just looks fishy too me. It would be highly appreciated if someone could just check this out just to tell me that i don't need to worry about it. Or point me in the right direction. I just feel un easy about this. ha.
