  • HT4623 How to update iOS when your iPhone 4 doesn't have the update icon

    Hi, I am using an iPhone 4 but i have been unable to update the operating system. i am still using iOS 4, as I can't find the "software update" function in my phone - it is not found under 'General' as listed. Updating via iTunes syncing to my macbook doesn't seem to help either (again, i cant find the 'look for updates' function).
    Can somebody help me out with some pointeres please? Would really appreciate it.

    " i am still using iOS 4, as I can't find the "software update" function in my phone - it is not found under 'General' as listed. "
    Correct.  This is only a feature of ios 5 and higher.
    If you have the latest itunes version, then you should simply open itunes and connect your iphone.  It will liekly prompt you to update.

    Please let me know how I can return to the original look and feel of the iPhone surface I bought my phone for.

    You had plenty of time to look at screenshots on the internet and read various blog posts about iOS 7.

    Plug it into iTunes, Control-click on the iPod in the left frame and select "Restore from backup." Should put it back like new.

    MY i phone lock & unlock i don't no ?
    which place bye this phone
    <Edited by Host>

    With the IMEI number I was able to check your iPhone's simlock status, it is locked. If it's jailbroken and you are updating the phone to a higher iOS you will lose your unlock and jailbreak status. As for updating the iPhone, you can plug your iPhone into a computer via USB and run iTunes, it should then automatically scan for a newer version of iOS.

    but how the iTune install it on my phone
    That means you phone is not an iPhone 3G - probably a 3GS, which can run iOS 6
    Identifying iPhone models
    Most likely your phone was previously hacked to carrier unlock.  When you updated/restored your phone in iTunes, the hack was removed and the phone re-locked to its original carrier.  It will now activate and operate only with that carrier, using their SIM card.

  • After updating iOS 7 my iPhone 5 is not able to find my BOSE music system Bluetooth. Kindly help

    After updating iOS 7 my iPhone 5 and 4S is not able to find my BOSE music system Bluetooth. However, my iPad can identify. How to solve this issue?

    Try resetting network settings at Settings > General > Reset.
    This will erase all saved wi-fi networks and settings for all previously connected wi-fi networks along with erasing all paired Bluetooth devices.

  • How to update ios 6 to ios 7 without updating straight to ios 8

    how to update ios 6 to ios 7 without updating straight to ios 8? I am still running on ios 6

    You can't. If your device qualifies for the most recent iOS version (your iPhone 4S does), that is the version that will be installed. If, on the other hand, your device was an iPhone 4 (not the S), the device does *not* qualify for iOS 8 so iOS 7 would instead be installed.

  • HT1338 How to update ios 7?

    Can help me how to update iOS 7?

    Hi, how are you going about it at present? Are you trying via Wi-Fi or by linking your phone to a computer and using iTunes?
    There is a massive, massive demand for this at present so if you've started to download the software and then get an error message, close 'Settings' and retry again. The same is true if you're seeing a massive time for download displayed, 20+ hrs.
    Keep trying at different times, I had about 5-6 attempts before it worked for me last night on both my iPhone and iPad.
    Regards,
    Steve

    How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

    Here are more details on my situation which should help clarify things...
    I purchased three iPhone 4 models back when they first came out (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library.  The problem is (as I understand it) that I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct without wiping out the separate contact lists, etc. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates and still be able to manage separate contact lists, etc. If I go this route, I assume we will lose all the apps on phones #2 and #3 that we have been "sharing"... correct? Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, one of you can help me??
    we have 2 iphone 4's synced to the same itunes account for apps and music since the day we bought them, but each has a different icloud acct. they have both been updated on the same itunes account with every update that has come out since we bought them in december of 2010. nothing on either phone has ever been lost or duplicated. having said all that, maybe i'm missing something here, but we have had no problems. we do have itunes setup to sync manually. i do believe i'm a piker compared to lawrence finch, but i'm just telling you what happens in my house. maybe check with apple? is there a store near you?

  • I have never updated ios on my iPhone 4.  I am currently running ios 4.  I tried to update yesterday to ios 6 but many hours into the backup I got an error message saying that continuing would cause all of my phone contents to be lost. What should I do?

    Why, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
    At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards.

  • How to update iOS 6 in IPOD 2nd

    Please Help Me,
    How to update iOS 6 in IPod 2nd generation , i cant any app download

    You do not. The hardware in the 2G does not support higher than 4.2.1
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    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.
