I've got the iOS5.1 update notification directly in my phone settings

've got the iOS5.1 update notification directly in my phone settings but neither I want to update my phone nor I want that little "red 1" displaying on my screen!! How do I get rid of it? There's no option in the settings... pls help!
P.s: isn't weird that only I got that notification directly the settings while my friends didn't? (mine is an American iPhone 4s while my friend's is from the UK)

Okay I have a stupid question but I am new to IPhone and appreciate you experience...if I update the software will I lose my text message, photos and songs and have to dowload them again from ITunes? Or, is it just like a software update on the computer where if updates without effecting anything?

HT2188 Ever since I got the new software update my iTunes on my phone is grey and does nothing!

Has anyone had similar issues?

Hey Sandeejackpot,
Thanks for the question. If you haven't already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPhone:

If the issue persists, you will want to reinstall iOS:

Since I got the iOS 7 update my safari won't work on my iPad 2

My iPad was completely fine until I got the iOS 7 update and now my safari will only let me go on the suggested sites eg Apple Disney espn and yahoo. I don't know what's wrong it's not my internet or the iPad

Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac.
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

I just got the ios 8 update but now my ipod 5 wont turn on

I just got the IOS 8 update but now my ipod 5 wont turn on.

If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

I still didn't got the iOS 7 update.

Yes it has - to developers. It is not for general consumption as of yet (this fall), and you seriously do not want to attempt to download it and install it now. It is not yet ready for public use.

When I got the prompt to update my iPod Touch 4th generation, the update claimed to have over 200 new features including Siri. Is there going to be another update that would make this a true statement?

Is it possible to restore to ios5 after updating to ios6 when my phone returned to locked state to unlocked state. Pla help...

Is it possible to restore to ios5 after updating to ios6 when my phone returned to locked state to unlocked state. Plshelp...

Sounds like your iPhone was hacked/modified/jailbroken to work
with wireless carrier other than the one it was purchased from. The
update has relocked it to the original carrier. Contact the original
carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify - only the
carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
Be advised that the previous modifications to change from original carrier
to your current Carrier may have rendered the software unable to be
officially unlocked and may prevent future updates.
Reverting to a previous version of iOS is not supported. Even it it was,
such reversion would not solve your problem because the iPhone has become
relocked to the original wireless provider and that status will not change
no matter what iOS version is installed.

I have a Iphone 4 and after the last software update iOS.0.4, my phone is no longer connecting to the wifi at my house.

I have a Iphone 4 and after the last software update iOS.0.4, my phone is no longer connecting to the wifi at my house.
My MacBook Air is connected and my roommates phones are also connected, but my iphone that always was connected to the same network is no longer connecting to the wifi.
The network is shown on the device but I can't join it.
Whats going on? Does someone know how to solve this issue?
Thank you!

Problem persisted after fixes were done so wife called apple today. Their fix is to turn cellular off when in the house and turn it back on when she leaves- the 4 doesn't keep the password so she has to enter the password too... This wasn't a fix ...it's just resolving the connection problem... They also said that they made ios6 have security features so nobody can hack into the wifi without having the password and it has to be entered to use the wifi. My 5 and the iPads stay on with no problems. It's just the 4. So far so good...she's had wifi all day when home. It's inconvenient but it's either completely reboot it with iTunes (which doesn't work for her) or buy a new phone and she won't do that either.
So...Apple is saying that she didn't have to do the updates either and could've stayed with the previous iOS but !!!too late now!!! We've updated because we think our phones will run better but the ios6 just made it a pita for users
I wonder if the hackers of the world are having as many issues as the peeps who are just trying to use their wifi??

You have to be running iOS 5 in order to update via the iPad settings. You are running 4.3. You will have to update via the latest version of iTunes on a computer. After you update to iOS 5.1.1, you will be able to do OTA updates from the settings on the iPad.

Has Apple got the new snapchat update?

Has Apple got the snapchat update, because when it says 'double tap to update' I do it and it doesn't update

I don't think the question was posed to Apple directly, diesel, and the update is live for some and not for others. So the question posed is snapchat upgrade availble for only Android users, and no iphone users. Or do some apple users have it availble and some do not. So we are not as capable of checking other apple users, other than posting this question in support.
The only person whom I've asked about it has an android and it's up and running for him.
I'm very excited for the update, so I've been online for a long time trying to figure out if it's an Apple thing, a my personal phone thing, or a snapchat thing.
I too am expecting at least an apology from Snapchat.

Acer Aspire m5-583p: I got the new windows update, now computer is stuck on the boot page. Help?

The title says it all. Last night I got the update and it restarted and went to the "Acer 'explore beyond limits'" boot page. After about an hour of looking at this I fell asleep. I woke up and it's still on the same page. Does anyone have this problem?

That is why you don't turn on automatic updates... Do you know the KB number of the update? If you do, then you can google KB###### Rescue Disk, and most likely you will be able to find a rescue disk Microsoft made to fix it. You could also try that old rescue disk for KB2 something that was from a year ago, I've used it a couple days ago to rescue a bricked system. Or you could try pressing ALT+F10 at the Acer Explore Beyond Limits screen (before the Windows boot thingie comes up) to enter recovery and then select Troubleshoot>Advanced Options>Command Prompt. Then follow the instructions: http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/38624-uninstall-specific-windows-updates-via-cmd-or-batch-file-in-windows-7-8-and-server-2008-2012. But this only works if you know the KB number. If you don't know the KB number try booting into Safe Mode (press ALT+F10 at POST, Troubleshoot, Advanced Options, Advanced Startup Settings, Press Restart, and then press the key 4 on your computer). From there you can uninstall the update and/or find the KB number. Please Kudo if this helped
