An iPhone 3G can run up to iOS 4.2.1. To update:
- Ensure that you're using the latest version of iTunes.
- Connect your device to your computer using the included USB cable.
- After iTunes opens, select your device when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
- Click "Check for Update" in the Summary pane to check for available updates.
Regards.

  • 2 iPhones each with there own Apple ID, can we share the same iCloud Keychain, how?

    Do we need to each use the same Apple ID in order to share the keychain? 

    Not quite.  The account you have in Settings>iCloud (and also in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars) is your primary account.  You will need to share this primary account to sync the same keychain to both devices as iCloud keychain does not sync with secondary accounts.  To implement this one of you would do the following:
    Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll
    Go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone and provide the password when prompted.  The account and data would only be removed from the phone, not from iCloud.
    Sign back in with the other person's iCloud ID to share this as their primary account.
    Turn off any data they do not wish to have on their phone from this shared account, such as the other person's contacts.
    Add their original account back as a secondary account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with their orignal iCloud ID.
    Turn on Contacts syncing in the secondary account to sync back their contacts to their phone.  Secondary accounts, while more limited than primary accounts, can also sync Mail, Reminders, Calendars and Notes so all of this data could be synced back from the original account and turned off in the primary account if you want to keep these separate too.
    Only the primary account will support iCloud bookmarks, photo stream, documents & data, iCloud backup and Find My iPhone and iCloud Keychain so you will be sharing all these services.  Your backups, for example, would both have to share the same 5GB of storage in the shared primary account.
    I'm not sure if you feel that all these trade-offs are worth it to share the same keychain but at the present time that's what would be required to do so.

  • I have an IPhone 4,with IOS 4.2.6. I just got an iPad which has an IOS 5.1.1. I want to update my IOS on the phone but the computer I use no longer has Internet access. How can I update my phone? Also, what iTunes version should I have for the updated IOS

    I have an iPhone 4 with IOS 4.2.6. I recently received an iPad with IOS5.1.1. I want to update my IOS on my phone but the computer I use is no longer hooked up to the Internet. What do I need to do? Also, does my iTunes need to be updated? It is whatever was available last July. Thank you for your time and courtesy!

    To update your phone requires using the latest version of iTunes, on your computer, as well as Internet access. The update to iOS 5.0 or higher is an erase/restore deal, so you not only have to make sure all of the content, currently on your phone, is on your computer and accessible, you need to update iTunes first, have Internet access, then update your phone. There is no way around this fact. You could go to an Apple store or use another computer, but you run the risk of losing all of your data it you do that.

    What version of iTunes do you have installed? If you are trying to update to iOS 6 you need iTunes 10.7 or later.

    If your phone isn't being recognized by your computer, you need to follow the steps in this article to resolve that
    Also, some basic isolation needs to be done. Does it show up in itunes on any other computers? do you have other cords you can test with to see if it might be the cord? if the phone doesn't show up on any computers, it's likely your phone has a hardware issue
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US is the article to use if you want to concentrate on trying to get a particular computer to recognize your phone

    As RG said, you cannot determine solely from the model number whether an iPhone is unlocked or not. In what country and from what dealer did you buy this iPhone?

    When you watch the progress bar trying to sync, can you see at what step the sync is stopped?
    If it does not get beyond step one (backup) delete the latest backup in the list in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices and try again after that. To be on the safe side, copy the backup folder to a safe place before you start. It is located here:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

    Hi, I have an iphone 4 with my itunes library on a Windows XP computer. My spouse (who has now passed away) had an itouch with an itunes library on an IMac. here is the problem, I bought an new iphone 6 and wanted to sync with my windows xp library and of course my itunes version is out of date and I need to update it...well I try and update the version and it will not update the Itunes library and when I researched it I would have to upgrade from XP to Windows 7...r they kidding me...first of all my computer is old and a pain in the *** but I have my itunes library on it.  Sp to get my phone working I sync'd it on the IMac and my spouses Itunes library has been sync'd to my iphone and I don't know how to get my library on it...After thinking about it I want to combine the libraries after all there are some purchases on each one.
    I have done some research and you have to buy a 3rd party piece of software...this is not the way I want to go...I do not think i should have to buy one and also when I do a goole search there are a ton of them out there and I am sorry i do not trust the comments as some of them do identify that they will get a kick back.
    Can someone help, i should be able to export my itunes library from my iphone 4 to the itunes library by appending/importing it...it is not rocked science on what I want to do and I cannot find out any process...
    Can someone help ?

  • HT4972 i have an iphone 4 with ios 5.1.1 and i want to upgrade it to the latest ios 6 and not 7 because its too heavy for iphone 4 how can i do it

    i have an iphone 4 with ios 5.1.1 and i want to upgrade it to the latest ios 6 and not 7 because its too heavy for iphone 4 how can i do it?

    You cannot. When you upgrade, you will get the latest version of iOS 7.

  • I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1.1. Want to upgrade to 6.1.3

    I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1.1. Want to upgrade to 6.1.3 because some apps only work with this version. I only get the option to go directly to 7.0.4 (iTunes) which is a bad idea for an iPhone 4 as everyone knows. I should have the right to choose which version I want to upgrade to, it makes no sense to have iOS 7 on iPhone 4. Please advise.
    Thanks in advance!

    Many people who have the iPhone 4 running iOS 7 have no performance problems, and a number have posted in these forums to say so, and they mean the entire iPhone, not just phone calls. So it is by no means predetermined that you would have performance problems should you upgrade.
    But regardless, as tonefox said, you have no choice. You either need to stay with iOS 5.1.1, or you'll need to accept the upgrade to iOS 7.0.4. There is no way to upgrade to any intermediate version.

  • I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

    I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

    The version of iOS is irrelevant to 4G connectivity.
    The iPhone 4S supports HSPA which is considered 4G by some carriers, it is NOT an LTE capable device.
    If you want a device that supports LTE, you will need to upgrade to an iPhone 5 or newer.  LTE capability requires hardware that does not exist in the 4S or older iPhones.
