  • How can I update backup of iPhone at iCloud without wifi?

    Hi Expert, Can anyone suggest how can I update backup of iPhone at iCloud without wifi? Wifi stopped working on my 4s after upgrade to iOS7. I have iTune backup but want to update at iCloud. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.

    You can't. iCloud backups can only be done over wifi.

  • I have about 200 pics that I downloaded onto my iPad 2 from a folder on my computer that crashed recently.How doI update and back up my iPad without losing those pics?

    I have about 200 pics that I downloaded onto my iPad 2 from a folder on my computer that crashed recently. How do I update and back up my iPad without losing those pics? Pics of my 4 beautiful kids... do not want to lose these!

    What would you have done if you didn't have an iPad?
    Photos on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data. The iPad is not designed to intended to be a backup storage device.
    The transfer of photos from a computer to an iOS device via the iTunes sync process is a one way transfer only - from the computer to the device. Photos are optimized for viewing on the device the photos are being transferred to - the original resolution of the photos is changed, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported.
    There are some 3rd party paid utilities that support transferring these photos in the opposite direction.

  • How do I update my 3GS to iOS 5?

    How do I update my 3GS to iOS 5? I've tried the update on iTunes but it says my phone is up-to-date with version 4.2.1

    That suggests you have an iPhone 3G, not a 3GS, which can't run an iOS version newer than 4.2.1. If you're sure you're using an iPhone 3GS, ensure that iTunes is up to date.

    I have an iphone 3GS, I went to back it up / update apps through my itunes. I did this, but a certain app I download wouldn't work on my phone as "my iphone software needed updating". So I did, now I can't restore & my phone shows itunes logo with plug?

    Happy to have been of help. Hope all goes smoothly.
    BTW, for the sake of others who may help you here, it's usually most polite if you mark the post that answered your question as being the one that "solves" it, not your own post. That's how people get points here, if a questioner marks their post as either "helpful" or "solving". It's not an issue for me, but for those just starting out in the forums it may be important to them. See:

  • HT4623 How can i update my 3gs so I can download apps like facebook and instgram?

    How can I update my 3gs so I can download apps like facebook and instagram?

    Your 3GS can happily update to the latest iOS 6.1.3.
    Unless it is actually an iPhone 3G, in which case it bottoms out at 4.2.1.

    I did the update to my iPhone 4 and I loose my voice memos how can I recover them?

    Once it's in recovery mode, everything on the phone is already gone.  If you've been backing it up and syncing on a regular basis, it should restore just fine.

  • I can't update my 3gs iPhone through itunes as it says I need to download latest versions which I've done so I'm in a loop. I'm using a Macbook Pro 10.5.8

    I can't update my 3gs iPhone through itunes as it says I need to download latest versions which I've done so I'm in a loop. I'm using a Macbook Pro 10.5.8

    Ahhh, the mysteries of software updating...glad it is working for you now.  Sometimes you just have to be persistent until iTunes figures out you aren't going to go away.
    So, are you now updating the iPhone to iOS 5.0.1?
    If you already have 5.0 and a wireless connection you don't need to use iTunes to update to 5.0.1...the wireless update only means a file of about 38 MB, while via iTunes it is the entire iOS and about 730 MB...big time difference.
    Hope all goes well for you.

    How is the Updating of the iPhones Software done?
    Does it update the software automatically, if I have "Sync Automatically" turned on in iTunes? Or will it "Ask Me"? (using Mac OS)

    It will let you know there is an update and ask if you want to update.

  • I updated my 3GS iphone to 5.0.1 cannot receive calls or messages.

    I updated my 3GS iphone to 5.0.1 yesterday.  I can make calls and send messages, but cannot recieve calls or messages. I called telstra as I instantly thought network problems.  My friends and family who are also on telstra have not had network issues.  I thought it was strange that this has only occurred after updating my software??  I have restored my phone, reset network settings and still nothing!! Is anyone else experiencing anything similar?
    Thanks,

    i have since inserted my sim card into an old phone and then put it back in my 3gs and just received 40+ messages.. not sure why its working now, but it is so I'm happy
