I have a dumb phone I am trying to update my operating system but don't have the software update under general setting. I've tried to do this on line but nothing! Help

I have a dumb phone not a smart phone. It doesn't have the software update under general setting. I tried to upgrade online but nothing! Currently, I cannot get many apps because I need the upgrade. Help

That's because you don't have iOS 5 or higher. See the following:
Connect the phone to your computer. Open iTunes. Select your phone from the sidebar under Devices. Click on the Summary tab in the main window. Click on the Update button.

  • HT4623 I don't have the Software UpgradeTab under General Settings to Push and then auto upgrade?

    I don't get a "Software Upgrade" Tab under General Settings.  So I can't figure out how to upgrade my IPOD.  It's two years old and its' never been upgraded, so I don't even know what version  of Software it has on it right now.  Please advise.  Thanks.

  • When I try to install Itunes, I get this error: (translated from Norwegian) There was a network error while trying to read from the file: C: \ windows \ installer \ iTunes.msi I have tried many times to reinstall, but nothing helps, please help me.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Today  my iPod touch 4 generation was dropped. now it just has a white screen. i tried reseting it by clicking the home and lock buttons but nothing helped. what is my problem and how do i fix it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • All downloads from either app store or icloud keep on freezing. Have tried restart of wifi, ipad, iphone and nothing helps. What can i do?

    I keep on getting download problems from both app store as well as from icloud.
    I have tried to reinstall some programs but they keep on failing to download.
    I have this problem for both my ipad 2 as well as my iphone 5. I currently live in italy and have checked whether i have problems with local router but everything checks out.
    I have tried both resetting iphone and ipad, restarting them both etc but nothing helps. Do you know whether there are any issues with app store or icloud in the last 4days.
    Thanks for any help on the matter

    In case anyone is having the same problem, I thought I'd post an update.  I realized there was an Apple store on my way home from the trip I was leaving for so I decided to stop in.  I waited 20 minutes for the next Genius so I wandered the mall and played with the iPad.  No big deal.  It took less than ten minutes for the person helping me to confirm there was a problem and swap the iPhone for a new one and send me on my way.  I got home, connected it to iTunes and restored from the last backup (after uploading the photos I'd taken since then to my Mobileme account!).  No problem whatsoever.
    I'm really glad I decided to go that route instead of taking it to Verizon. 
    It's been two months and I've not had a single problem since.

  • Very frustrated with my LG G2. My screen freezes all the time when texting. This started after the upgrade. My husband's phone is doing the same thing. We have reset the phones, deleted off pics and videos but nothing helps.

    Very disappointed in my LG G2. My screen freezes all the time especially when texting. This started after the update. My husband's phone is doing the same thing. We have done a hard reset, deleted pics and videos to clean up the phone but nothing helps. Any suggestions? Our phones are new.

    Lots of Frustration.  In some cases the LGG2 is rendered useless even as a phone.
    Here is what I did.
    Got replacement Phone.
    Same problems but I shut down all apps that I purchased even though they worked before KitKat.
    Found that If I have both WiFi and LTE Data on at the same time battery chewing stops. Do Not know why.
    Then I got 2 CM free utilities.  The Clean and Wash utilities. Run them and find the culprits grinding CPU
    cycles and running down the battery.  Number One is the Verizon Voice Mail service constantly turning on and off
    and retrieving data not there.  Turn of the extra Voice mail and use the old access with the *6.  Unless you have
    100 messages a day for business your hosed until this KitKat issue is fixed. Get the CM battery utility.
    YOU can see the battery suckers and shut them down when not using automatically.
    Start putting back one application at a time you used often and see it they work and if the utilities will tune them
    down if they cause problems.  The LG will get better but with some limitations.
    LG and Verizon have a problem with what was a great phone.turned bad overnight.

    I don't have the software update option in my settings. How can I update my phone so I can download apps?

    Are you referring to updating the iOS? Software update for the phone has nothing to do with downloading apps. The only time the OTA software update for the phone iOS was after iOS 5. If you are looking to update applications, then go to the App store and select updates.

    I'm not sure what turning off your Mac has to do with this unless you are using Internet Sharing on the Mac for the iPad to connect to the Internet. In any event, have you tried, Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings?

  • So I just bought a used MacBook from Amazon with OSX 10.5.8.  I am trying to install new software and operating system, but I don't have the passwords to the Users set up in the computer.  What do I do?

    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.
