  • HT4972 Why cant I update my iphone 3G from iOS 4.2 to newer version

    Can't load any apps to my phone, not even ones I've had on before. tried restoring to factory settings etc.

    If you have the apps you downloaded before in your computer, you could sync your iPhone 3G and get the working apps back in your iPhone.  Since the 3G's hardware does not support the latest iOS and many app developers have updated their apps to use the new features of newer iPhones and newer iOS, those updated apps will not work on the 3G, but the older versions will and you can still sync them to your phone if you have those olders versions in your computer.

    I have an Iphone 3GS and I'm trying to update it to IOS 6 but its not letting me upgrade it. Until I upgrade it I cannot add any apps onto my phone. Someone please help.

    Hello Hana-Morris,
    I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone.  If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this:

    As always, it is a good idea to create a backup before hand:

  • HT4972 why cant i update my sons iphone 3gs to ios5 from ios4? it wont let me download him any apps?

    my sons iphone3gs has ios4 and it wont let me download any apps i need to update it to ios5 but dont know how ?!?!

    IF you actually have a 3GS, follow the instructions in the article from which the question was posted and you will be able to update to iOS6.
    If you have a 3G, iOS 4.2.1 is as high as it can go.

    why cant i update my apps

    One thing to check is to see if you have any items waiting to download in iTunes (on your iPhone).
    The most recent time I had this problem, I checked there and found 5 items that hadn't downloaded properly.  Once cleared, things started updating again.
    It looks like there's a system-wide download queue, and, unlike the non-iPhone versions, it will only download one item at a time.  So, if one item gets stuck, the others wait patiently behind it until its their turn, like polite people on an escalator.  Pausing or deleting the troublesome download will allow the others to continue.

    why cant i update to os 10.7.5?

    If you're still running 10.6.3, you'll need to update to 10.6.8 to get the App Store. Since you didn't supply any information about your Mac, Lion might not be a good match for you.
    After you have the App Store, Lion can be ordered here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion

    why cant i backup my iphone with itunes or icloud it keep giving me error * iphone cant be backup because sesion cant be start* -_-

    Delete your most recent backup in iTunes (iTunes Preferences>Devices, click on the backup, click Delete Backup), if using a PC click Reset Sync History (also in Devices), then close iTunes, restart your device, connect your device again, open iTunes and try syncing again.
