I'm trying to update from version 4.1 and it shows device not elligibleAsk your question.

I try to update from version 4.1, but it shows in ITunes device not elligible. I have the latest version of ITunes, but it seems the phone is a problem. None of the aplications work properly, Facebook and Safari cut off....

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

    Latest version is 6.1 now. Try a direct download of the IOS file and load that via iTunes. Mentioned on some of the other threads here.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

  • IPad 2 will not update from version 4.3.5 (8L1).

    I got an iPad 2 from work and it will not update from version 4.3.5. There isn't even a software update option in settings. I have reset and erased it a few times, and still no update option. I have plugged it into my computer to try to update it that way and every time iTunes prompts me to download and update the latest version, it loads for a few seconds and then I get an iTunes message that says "The IPad software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your newtwork connection is active, or try again later." the network connection IS active, I can use safari, and I have "tried again later" and still no update. PLEASE HELP!

  • I am trying to update from 6.0.2 to 7.0 and it keeps saying Firefox must be closed first. but NOTHING else is open except the Install window.

    I have windows XP and am trying to update my version of Firefox. I currently cannot open Firefox at all from my shortcut or directly from the program list. i had to go in through Safari to open it and then tried to update the version.

    Hi kshikuma. This happens to me sometimes, as well.
    To solve this issue, open the Windows Task Manager by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del.
    Go to the "Processes" tab and see if a process named "firefox.exe" or "plugin-container.exe" is opened. Close any and all such processes by right-clicking them and selecting "End Process".

  • I have a Iphone4. Trying to update from 4.3.3 to IOS 5 or 6.  There is no 'Update Software' button under Utilities/General. Tried updating using Itunes but it comes up 'The Iphone software update server cannot be contacted' ????

    iOS 4.3.3 doesnt have the "Update your Software" tab so you will need to go to itunes and back up your iphone then restore your iphone and it will download the latest iphone software (6.1.4) if you dont want 6.1.4 download your current version and hit shift on your keyboard (alt if your on Mac I think) and click restore iphone and find your downloaded software 4.3.3 then download iOS 5 or 6 and do the samething after your phone boots up from restoring it to 4.3.3.

    What do you mean you're in the process of "downloading the installer for 10.7.3"? If you mean the software update combo, you won't be able to use that to go from 10.7.4 to 10.7.3. The only way you could do that is to reinstall the whole OS from the App Store IF that version is 10.7.3. I don't know if the App store Lion installer includes 10.7.4 already, but if it does, you can't get to 10.7.3 at all.
    As for what you do about your slow machine, there are tips all over the internet. I wrote up some of the basic one's to try here:
    http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/12/05/why-is-my-mac-running-so-slow/
    Other possibilities not mentioned there are either a corrupt install of Lion (solution; re-install from the Recovery disk) or hardware failure (old hard disks and other hardware components can sometimes give out there last after the strain of a new install).

  • My iPhone will not update from version 4.1

    My iPhone will not update from version 4.1, everytime I try to update on the iTunes iPhone screen, the response says "your iTunes version is current"....I am not trying to update iTunes, I just want to update my iPhone. How do I fix this?

    You must purchase 10.5.8 from an Apple store, either in person or online. You can also update to 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) if you have an Intel Mac. The current version is Lion, (10.7), but you must have Snow Leopard installed to upgrade to Lion. You also need an Intel Mac.

  • Update numbers from version 2.1, App Store shows no update

    Hi!
    I have numbers '09 version 2.1 installed on my macbook. Now I would like to get an update in order to use it within the icloud. I tried to buy it using the MacAppStore, but I alway get the message : You habe numbers installed, use the Update in the MacAppStore. But there are no possibilities shown to update the program.
    Any Ideas what can be done.
    Thanks!

    H,
    Have you run "Software Update" from the Apple menu? It would be quite odd for the Mac App Store to find your copy of Numbers and for Software Update not to find it. Software Update should download the update itself or invoke the updater in the Mac App Store. One way or the other, the program should update to version 2.2 and the update should be free.
