Can I restore back to IOS 5.1?

It sounds like you have a hacked/unofficially unlocked iphone.  When you update, it will indeed lock it back, as it should.
The ONLY place that can legitimately unlock an iphone is the carrier to which they are locked and no U.S. carrier does this.

    Contacts are NOT part of the iTunes backup.  If you had read the User Guide when you got your phone, you would have learned that Apple recommends you synch your contacts for safekeeping to your computer (Outlook, Address Book) or a cloud service.  Using the phone as your only source of your contacts is foolish as the phone can easily be lost, damaged, stolen, or the data become corrupt.
    If you've been using your phone as strongly recommended, your contacts are safe and sound on your computer or cloud service ready to be synched back to your phone.  Of course, you should be backing up your computer regularly as well.
    If you haven't been doing this, your contacts are likely gone.

  • HT4623 update my iphone 3GS with iOS

    Tried to update my iphone 3Gs with ios6.  Went to settings, tapped General but don't see Software or anything else that will help me download the new software.  Want to do this to set up iCloud for my iphone, ipad and macbook.

    open itunes - plug your phone to your computer - itunes should automatically read that your phone needs an update.
    You should do a backup of your phone before you update.

  • HT4972 i tried to update my iphone 3GS with IOS 6 and lost EVERYTHING! Help!

    I tried to update my iphone 3GS with IOS6 and the update was incomplete.  It then said retry so I did and it synced with my daughters ipod touch causing me to lose ALL of my information.  Is there any way to retrieve my previous information or reset my phone to what it was?  Unfortunately I dont thing I backed up my contacts, pictures, etc.

    If KiltedTim is correct I agree with him. If the phone is not hacked try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall that may be blocking access to gs.apple.com. See also this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3194

  • Is it a good idea to update my iphone 3GS with the new io6 software?  I did it with my iphone 3G and the io4 software ruined it really!

    Is it a good idea to update my iphone 3GS with the new io6 software?  I did it with my iphone 3G and the io4 software ruined it really!

    Your plan is generally OK, but I would suggest a different approach, since you're so frazzled by it.
    1. Update iPhoto first; check and backup the iPhoto Library;
    2. Upgrade to Yosemite; This will prompt you to migrate to Photos, but you don't have to do it, so don't!
    3. iPhoto 9.6.1 will remain in your Applications folder and you can continue to use it;
    4. Learn more about Photos, it's features and how iCloud Photo Library really works (for example, once you turn it on, you won't need to download manually);
    5. When you do feel you know enough about Photos, only then launch it to migrate your photos; after migration your iPhoto Library remains fully functional, in case you want to revert to using iPhoto, so that part should not worry you.
    Thet biggest issue you have is the small amount of free space. You might want to address tha first, or locate your new Photos Library on an external drive as well, and only move it to your local drive when it's been optimized (or keep it on an external).

  • I have 2 point security for AppleID. My iPhone 4S is listed as my trusted phone to text. No tel. no. is given. I am updating to iPhone 6Plus with same tel. no. Do I need to change anything for the sign in verification?

    I have 2 point security for AppleID. My iPhone 4S is listed as my trusted phone to text. No tel. no. is given. I am updating to iPhone 6Plus with same tel. no. Do I need to change anything for the sign in verification?

    Of course You can also add your iPhone telephone # as a trusted device.
    This way when you insert your SIM card into any phone, Apple will automatically recognize your cell phone # as a
    trusted device (may be handy if iphone breaks but you insert SIM card into another phone).
    HOWEVER:
    Having also your iPhone as a trusted device, is convenient if you travel and use a different SIM card
    at destination. This way you can still use the iphone for verification, even though you are using a different
    phone #.
