I have the iPhone 3 (iOS 4.2.1) and I cannot update to iOS 5.
I have the iPhone 3 (iOS 4.2.1) and I cannot update to iOS 5. iTunes tells me my current version is the latest version. I have the latest version of iTunes.
Any advice?
The iPhone 3G came out about 4 years ago, and the hardware they had at that time can not support the latest and greatest iOS 5.

When i delete photos from photo stream in iphoto .. The pictures are still there on my iphone's photo stream. They are both connected to the same i cloud account.. And i cannot update to ios 5.1 on iphone.. Any help ??
1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores. -
I have an Iphone OS 4.3.3 and need to update. I have not done so since the first Itunes library used to setup my phone was done on a friend's computer and is not longer available for me. Loading to a different library requires me to erase the contents before updating. I have already come to terms with the disappointing reality of losing my media, however, will my text message history, phone contacts/numbers, notes saved in the basic built-in notes app or ANYTHING else be effected or wiped during this process? Does the backup function secure this data even though I'm using a different Library?
Hoping there's anyone with a promising answer to this concern.
Thanks in advance,
MSApp content will not be lost as long as you back up the phone to the computer you plan to restore it from. See this for advice on how to deal with your situation: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

Why does my iPhone 4 gets very lag and unstable after updated to iOS 5.1?
I have been using iOS 5.0.1 previously without any problem and smooth, however after i updated to iOS 5.1, my phone is getting unstable.
Every time when i unlock my screen, it may lag for a few seconds. This issue does not happened when i'm using iOS 5.0.1. I did restore my phone using iTunes but the issue is still there. Anyone able to help me pls?Try restarting your iPhone 5 by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo. Then give it a try.

My ipod touch 3,5 gen works on 4.2.1 softwear version and need to update to 4.3 so I can run my app Numbers that I've just bought yesterday.It doesn't update automatically. I'm in Portugal. What can I do to solve this?
What model iPod do you have? A 2G only can go to 4.2.1. The 3G and 4G can go to the latest. 4.3.3. Identify your iPod here:
Identifying iPod models
What computer OS and version do you have? What version of iTunes is installed? -
I have the iPhone 4. Whoever I call, people cannot hear me.
It seems to me that there is any hardware problem because when I make a call, no one can hear me...
Are you using a protective case on your phone? If it's not made for your exact model of iPhone it can cover the microphone.

I have an 1 phoe 3gs and need to download newer version of IOS but when n settings , general - there is no Software Update option - how can i update to a leter version of IOS ?
THANKSUpdate it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.3.

It still charges in the wall, but when it comes to putting songs or pictures on my iPod, it won't connect to iTunes or charge while plugged into my computer.
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. iOS 7 made the iPod/computer more sensiteve to cable problems
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

It is annoying, but there is NO way in **** that I am going to uninstall and install all over again.
And what might those errors be? We're not mind readers.

Why not? That's essentially all the install does, removes the old version and installs the new version. -
I have a new macbook pro running lion and want to update to ios 5 on my ipod touch. My old macbook only has 10.4.11 and can't be updated to lion - and won't update my ipod touch to ios 5. But the message on my new macbook pro says I have to update on the computer I normally use for syncing or my music will be lost. Is there any solution for this?
try exporting your iTunes libary from the old computer to the new one
take a look at this from apple

I am not sure you have home shareing with 10.4.11 but if you do it works very nicely

I have the iphone 4 and just updated to iOS 6 and all my text messages are gone. Can I get them back?
Group messaging simply puts all replies in one conversation in Messages. It doesn't prevent the behavior you experienced.
My suggestion which would be much easier in my opinion, is rather than do a text, send out an email and use bcc: , which will keep the audience hidden from each recipient.
Otherwise, if you're determinted to do only texts, the only way is to send your message to one person at a time. You can of course copy/paste your msg each time which might be helpful. -
