I cannot update my iPhone 4 with iOS 6

Hi I tried to update my iPhone 4 this morning but it;s saying I need to restore it but this keeps coming up now "this device is not eligible for the requested build." I have been browsing through YouTube videos and mostly all of them say, go to folders etc and then go to hosts and edit the last line of digits with (gs.apple.com) # but I don't have gs.apple.com as a line at the end. Anyone know what I can do to resolve this problem?

Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com
Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
Install the latest version of iTunes.
Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
