how to download ios 5.0.1 instead of ios 5.1?

If you are past 5.1, there's a good chance you can't go back.
If you're on 5.0 or before, you will need to place your phone in DFU mode, get a manual copy of iOS 5.0.1 for your phone (correct model), and install it by holding down Shift (Windows) or Option (Mac) when restoring your phone in iTunes. It will prompt you for the specified .ipsw file.

  • How to download and install friends 2.11 on ios 6.16

    Hi there
    Having an IPOD (IOS 6.16) I need to reinstall "FIND FRIENDS" but the AppStore offers a version for IOS 7 only.
    Any suggestions ?
    Cheers
    Theo

    This way will likely work:
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

    how to download it iphone 3gs which is having iOS 3.1.3 and now i want iOS 7.0.4 in it.

    The latest iOS avialable for the iPhone 3G is 6.1.3.  7.0.4 requires an iPhone 4 or later.
    To update your 3GS to 6.1.3, use iTunes.  See this:

  • Update current iOS 4.2.1 to iOS 5.1.1 only instead of iOS 6.0.1

    I have an iphone 4 with iOS 4.2.1, I wish to update to iOS 5.1.1 instead of iOS 6.0.1, may I know any way to do this with or wihout itunes?

    You can only update to whatever is the latest version of iOS supported by your device.
    You do not get to pick and choose.

  • A lady at Best Buy erased everything off my iphone 3gs, now when i try to download facebook app it said it requires ios 4.3. I have hooked it up to itunes and everything but nobody knows how to get the ios 4.3 on this phone. HELP someone plz

    I need help on how to download the ios 4.3. to my iphone 3gs. My mom was using it and everythig was fine but when she upgraded the lady erased everything so it would be like new and now when i try to download a app like facebook it says it requires ios 4.3. and i have asked people at phone places and i have hooked it up to itunes and still havent been able to..when i go to settings then general it doesnt show up any software updates, that whole part is erased. someon eplease help me!\

    What version of iOS are you running? I'm going to bet that you do NOT have a 3Gs. You have a 3G. The highest version of iOS that can run is 4.2.1.
    If you did not save a copy of the older facebook at that could run on 4.2.1 on your computer that you can sync back, then you're out of luck. The newest version (and the only one available in the app store) will not run on 4.2.1. 
    You will have to resort to using the mobile web page in Safari or find a 3rd party app that will run on your phone.

    As already provided, if you don't have such in your iTunes library, on your computer, then there is no way to put it back on your phone. Apps are DRM protected, so even if you found a copy somewhere, you wouldn't be able to use it.

    You don't. This thread is over 1 year old. If you need to upgrade, connect your phone to iTunes and check for updates. If you have iOS 5, you can go into settings - general - software update.

    how to download new version of ios 5.0 in my ipod ? i cant download new apps and i cant connect to itunes store.?

    Only with iOS5 or later you can update/upgrade directly from the iPod/iPhone.
    When your version of iOS is lower than 5, you must connect to iTunes and then update.
    It is best when you update iTunes to the latest version first.

    You posted in the OS X 10.3 forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    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).

  • Hi all,,i don't know how to download ios 5?can you tell me how to download it? Thank you

    Hi all
    How i can download ios5? I dont understand how to download it?
    Is there any requirements that i need to download ios 5?
    Thank you

    Launch iTunes and look under the "About iTunes". Where that will be located will depend on what operating system your computer is running. On a Mac, it's under the iTunes menu. On Windows, it's under the Help menu, I believe.
