HT4972 why it dosent let me update my iphone to iso5

i need to update my iphone it dosent let me get apps cuz i need the iso5

Apple only supports the Update of iPhone 4 today to iOS 6.0.1. This is the only iOS supported, Apple does not support using iOS 5 for Firmware Updates anymore, not even iOS 6.0, only 6.0.1
If you would like to Update your iPhone to iOS 6.0.1, then use iTunes 10.7 or 11 on computer to Update or Restore.

HT1414 I dont know why bt ever since I updated my iphone 3gs 16GB to the new 5.1.1 firmware I am unable to activate it with my any sim card, so is there any way to fix this. Im from India

I dont know why but ever since I updated my iphone 3gs 16GB to the new 5.1.1 firmware I am unable to activate it with any sim, so is there any way to fix this please? Is there a solution to activating my Iphone 3gs on this firmware? I purchase this iPhone from USA and Im using it in India. Please help me...

This means the iPhone was hacked to be unlocked. The 3GS was not sold in the US as officially unlocked.
Restoring an iPhone with iTunes that was hacked to be unlocked or installing a firmware update on an iPhone that was hacked to be unlocked re-locks the iPhone to the carrier the iPhone was sold as carrier locked when new. In this case, re-locked with ATT.

HT4972 why dont I have an update facility on my ipad

Why dont I have an update facility on my ipad

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
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 antivirus 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 7.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
 Cheers, Tom

HT4972 Why cant I see software updates in my setting?

why cant I see software updates in my settings?

Because your iPhone 3G cannot run any version of iOS higher than 4.2.1, which came out before the "Software Updates" was added (in iOS 5).

Why no 6.1.1 update for iPhone 5 ?

So 6.1.1 is out for the iPhone 4S. Good I hope it works and sort out the issues those people are having. Now what about us iphone 5 users? Are we supposed to just swing for it? I sincerely hope Apple is working on a seperate update for this as I sure would like to use my mobile Internet again, that'd be swell. Public statements once in a while wouldn't hurt apple

i have the same problem with cellular call... so where are waiting for the new update for iphone 5 to solve these problems.

My iPhone4 can't sync to Itunes after I have updated the iPhone to ISO5.0. now my iPhone can't play music. whenever i go to play my music on my iPhone it just reverts back to the playlist. hopeless! ISO5.0 is as bad as Microsoft stuffs.

I have recently updated the iTunes in order to update both my iPhone and iPad to ISO5.0. unfortunately, after the updated, my iPhone is no longer playing any music. whenever i go to play music on my iPhone it just reverts back to the playlist or it keeps running through song to song. But still, no music is on.
I tried to re-sync the music library, error mesage prop up,
"The iPhone 'xfdsarw' could not be synced because the sync session failed to start"
I delete the iTunes and download it again. Then, I restore my iPhone to the version before ISO 5.0. After, I do the updated again. However, the problem still exists. What should I do? Please advise. I cant believe that iPhone cannot play iTunes!!!!
How come, apple acts like Microsoft? I saw this problem had existed in the developer stages back to the past summer. Then, you guys didnt fix it before the release of ISO 5.0. Hopeless. As being a life-long apple fan, I am so disappointed! Wordless ....

My music can be played in my iMac and iPad itunes, but not my iPhone4.
i did what you have suggested to unsync the music and then re-sync again. should i try to cancel all the music in the library and then restore them again. can it work? i dont want to bet coz reloading so much music is very trouble.

Why wont itunes let me update my ipod touch 4g. to ios 5

itunes has a message pop up whenever i try to update saying it "could not be restored, an unknown error occured. (3194)". how do i fix this?

The first thing to check is that you have the latest version of iTunes. Running an older version is the most common reason to get a 3194 error.
If your computer is running the latest version or upgrading doesn't fix the problem, try the steps listed in the section headed "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in this support article:

Hope this helps.

Why do my attempts to update my iPhone 5 to iOS 7.0.6 repeatedly fail?

I recently downloaded the iOS 7.0.6 software update to my iPad and my wife's iPhone 5 without any difficulty at all. However, when I try to update my own iPhone 5, I repeatedly get a "Software Update Failed...An error occurred downloading iOS 7.0.6" message. Please help. Thanks.

I reset my iPhone 5 but was still unable to download the iOS 7.0.6 software update. If I were to install iTunes on my PC, as suggested above, what would I do after that?
As I mentioned previously, I was able to do the download directly onto another iPhone 5 and an iPad without any problem. This, I find the whole thing kind if confusing.
Thanks in advance for your help.

HT4972 Hi guys! i just updated my iphone 3gs OS, but unfortunately it's has refused to recognise my sim card. how can i correct this?

I need help with my iphone 3gs?

No. It won't. You can NOT activate an iPhone without a SIM. There are no exceptions. If the OP is getting a message that the SIM is not valid, not present, or not recognized, it will NOT activate.

Why is there no later update to iPhone 3G, than iso 4.2.1????

I can't do anything with it!!! No cool apps, no clouds, no nothing!!! It should be an easy fix to provide ios 5 to iPhone 3G!

Apple tests the new versions of iOS with a variety of hardware, and, as you have seen, they determined that iOS 5 would not run acceptably and thus has not been provided.
You will have to upgrade to a new phone if you wish to take advantage of those features.
