IOS 4.2 Upgrading Question

I sync my iPhone 3Gs to my Macbook running 10.4.11 so I can't update to the latest version of iTunes and therefore cannot update my iPhone to 4.2 using that computer.
What will happen if I use another computer, that is has the latest iTunes on it, to update my iPhone to iOS 4.2? Will I lose information? Will I still be able to sync the iPhone and my Macbook?

Well when i got sl for 29 it was licensed as a upgrade to leopard.
But it's the full sl install DVD. So perfectly plausible to upgrade from any version with it.
But I had leopard so no bad feelings here of stealing.
The retail version costs ~159 (that's euros, usually same number in dollars), and includes iLife,(iWork?).
But sure licens may have changed for the 29$ sl.
I don't think leopard should be free for tiger ppc users, but full retail prize is too much today, should be on a discount. But anyway for old Mac users that love the Mac way and feel for file associations snow leopard is a bitçh. Leopard was the last version that did this the good way. Mac OS 9 was the last one to do it interrially correct way.

  • I noticed that Find My iPhone on iCloud hasn't worked since iOS 8 came out. My device uses iOS 7. My question is: do I need to upgrade my device? If not, what should I do? I do not wish to upgrade my device.

    I noticed that Find My iPhone on iCloud hasn't worked since iOS 8 came out. Whenever I try to use it, it always says "All Devices Offline." This is regardless of whether I am in a good Wi-Fi zone or not.  I like to use Find My iPhone to remotely track my battery charging status whenever my phone is charging in a different room. That's been really handy, which is why I really need to get this fixed. No matter what computer I use, the problem is always the same.
    My device uses iOS 7. My question is: do I need to upgrade my device? If not, what should I do? I do not wish to upgrade my device, especially considering the bad things I've heard about iOS 8.
    Feedback would be welcome ASAP.

    You don't need to update to iOS 8 to use Find My iPhone.  If you haven't already tried, go to Settings>iCloud>Find My iPhone and turn it off, then reset your phone (hold the sleep/wake and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release).  After it restarts, turn Find My iPhone back on and see if it works properly now.

  • Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    And Apple won't tell you. All they will tell you is what countries are supported for LTE right now. You can express your interest to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    but you will not receive a reply. It may be waiting on Telcel to approve. They may not feel that their LTE network is robust enough to handle that much load yet. But I'm just guessing. We'll just have to wait and see what develops.
    Regads.

  • Security upgrade question - Getting 6.1.6 downloaded to iphone.

    Security upgrade question - I have a 4S phone v6.01 with an upgrade to IOS 7.04 already downloaded and ready for install.  I would like to install the 6.1.6 security upgrade instead. How do I delete the ios7 in the queue or have the 6.1.1 pushed as an option to the phone?

    You can't install iOS 6.1.6 on that device and must update it to 7.0.6.

    Hi
    I am experiencing wireless connection problem on 4s after ios 8.1 upgrade. The wireless icon appears showing that it's connected but webpages do not load. I have checked my internet connection with other devices and seems to be alright. what to do?
    I have tried reseting the network settings and forgetting my wireless connection and re-connecting to it. I even backed up my phone on itunes and restored it, factory reseted it. Nothing seems to work.
    Also after my upgrade to ios 8.1 my personal hotspot option under cellular data has disappeared.
    Would you please help me out? I would really appreciate it.

    Hi..
    Restart your router then restart the iPhone to test.
    If that doesn't help, try this support article >   iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • Ipad 4 retina display is slow after iOS 8, also upgrade the the iOS 8.0.1 i think and safari is slow, animations are slow, and i can't restore it to iOS 7, there it was great.

    ipad 4 retina display is slow after iOS 8, also upgrade to iOS 8.0.1 i think and safari is slow, animations are slow, and i can't restore it to iOS 7, there it was great. i mean its like my iphone 4 with iOS 7 in its best days. i hope no to get stuck again, i mean please let me go to the iOS 7)).

    Upgraded my ipad4 from ios6 to iOS 8 because the new WSJ app required it. HUGE MISTAKE!!!!!!! I can maybe understand some apps being slower but not Safari or Chrome. Apple must be throttling back the ipad4 processor even more with ios8 to force an upgrade to the next gen iPad whenever it arrives.

  • Sound problems after iOS 4.2 upgrade

    Experiencing very poor sound quality after iOS 4.2 upgrade. Bad eq, left channel dropping out, sounds like heavy reverb. Exists with iPod and pandora apps. Tried adjusting eq in settings. Any one else having problems?

    Yep I just upgraded to new OS 4.2 on iPhone 4 and I get this static buzz sound when talking to people it's really annoying and sound quality is terrible. What happened? I went back to the shop and they said it's the upgrade and that there is an issue with it. They also said there is no point leaving the phone with them as they can't fix it that it's upto apple to release a patch for the problem. Can we get a fix for this soon before I damage my ears?

  • Dictation problems after ios 8.2 upgrade

    I rely heavily upon dictation.   2 problems occur (at minimum) after ios 8.2 upgrade to iphone 6. .
    1. I wasnt going to add this dictation bug (feature ;-)) b/c couldnt reproduce the seemingly safari bug when got home, but as I was dictating my first sentence for defect here, it happens in this text box on any line. :-(.
        1. Problem is as soon as dictation types in word Or words, when I hit done, it erases what was just dictated!  Happens on even just ine word. (So having to manually type all of this n I stink at typing ie, time consuming).
        2. I can paste characters from noteoad into here...so must be dictation relateD...it seems.
    2.  In the calendar textbox, when I dictate a new event (doesnt happen in location textbox) and the last character before it fills up the end of textbox (just before the "x"), it automatically does "done" for me (the beep sounds), it stops dictating, but more annoying is it will no longer allow me to continue dictating in that new event's top textbox.  That means I HAVE to type n I stink at that. To reproduce I simply:
    1. press the microphone.
      2. Type in only numerics 1 thru 17....it will dictate to look like this:  123 456-789-1011 1213 1415 1617
      3. "Beep/dong" noise because it hits the end of characters alowed it seems n decides it is "Done".
      4.  press the microphone
       5. "Beep/dong" noise because it wont let you dictate any more of anything said.
    I Couldnt find the entry where google shows someone with what looks like same issue/bug/defect/feature # 2, so entering this.
    I Have warranty but cant figure out how to get phone support for iphone (only mac ...last year).
    I don't seem to have this problem using i notepad in phone when he gets to having to wrap. :-)
    I Have not trieddictation on my mac...yet.
    CAn someone help on these issues please? Thanks!

    Hey Markwoody,
    Wow! That definitely sounds frustrating, but good job so far isolating and troubleshooting the issue. We have a few more steps that we can try in an attempt to resolve this issue:
    First, it sounds like you have tried restarting your phone. Let’s try a reset instead:
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/ht201559
    How to reset
    - You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    - To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    If the issue persists, we’ll want to restore your device to factory settings and test once more. You can backup your device, but be sure to restore it as new first for isolation purposes, as restoring a backup can sometimes restore the same issues that you were experiencing before.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

  • My iPad 2 is updated to iOS 6. My question is, can it take panoramic pictures? I tried looking around to see if i could figure out how, but no luck. Help please.

    My iPad 2 is updated to iOS 6. My question is, can it take panoramic pictures? I tried looking around to see if i could figure out how, but no luck. Help please.

    When you look at how they distribute apps it seems that iPods/iPhones are deemed more portable, which is why they have the better camera features, stuff like weather and passbook and stocks, while Apple doesn't seem to plan for the iPad being used as peoples cameras or being carried around with them on a daily basis....and I know evidenc is to the contrary. I've seen people using their iPad as a camera in national parks and at disneyland.

  • Since iOS 8.3 upgrade school iPads need to reset very often

    Since iOS 8.3 upgrade school iPads need to reset (holding down home and power button) very often as they do not turn on. iPads are charged at the time.
    Anyone know how to fix this? It is making life at the school quite difficult.

    I take that back, music is messed up too!  Some of the "default" playlists, such as "recently added" , "Recently played" and "Top 25 Most Played" are listed on iTunes and were always on my phone... but since iOS 8.3... they are gone... Still in iTunes, but not on device.

  • IPad ios 4.2 upgrade debacle

    I was on the phone this morning with a level 1 Apple Care tech, who basically told me that my sudden lack of all internet connectivity is caused by problems with my router/firewalls, and has nothing to do with the ios 4.2 upgrade.
    This is my first Mac purchase and I am not familiar with how quickly Apple puts out patches. Do any of you experienced Mac users have some sense of timeframe? Are we talking a week or two or next April (as someone on another thread in this forum mentioned.)
    <Edited by Host>

    An iPad bought a few days ago connected fine to a Linksys (Cisco) router, then yesterday refused to negotiate a valid IP address via DHCP handshake. No amount of resetting, restarting, or rebooting--even restoring--either the router, cable modem, or iPad resulted in success. (This included forgetting networks and renewing leases.) All other devices in the network connected and re-connected flawlessly; conversely, the iPad would connect to other wi-fi networks.
    The router was put through several changes, including choosing only 11g devices, and changing transmission channels & SSID names. Finally, what worked a mere seconds ago, was changing the security protocol from WPA2/AES+TKIP to WPA/TKIP (only). That kickstarted the iPad into a valid IP address. In a fit of impulsivity, I changed the security BACK to WPA2/AES+TKIP and then to AES (only), and the iPad continues to connect appropriately, even after awakening from sleep mode.
    I'm not sure what happened, but my guess is that the IP lease expired, and the iPad refused to negotiate a new address with the router, until the security change forced something loose. In any case, this seems to be a prevalent issue, judging from the number and breadth of threads clamoring about this issue in many forms, so this just a note of what worked for me. (I posted this in the discussions, as well.) Ciao.

  • IMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade! Feedback pls

    iMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade, anybody experiencing this as well? Feedback please......

    You shouldn't have to hard restart and it shouldn't have anything to do with your router.  If anyone else runs into this problem try resetting the network settings on your phone.  All the steps to do this can be found here http://tekshot5.com/ios-5-1-imessage-fix/
    Edit: Some of us don't have the option of resetting our DNS servers.  I run my own for example for caching purposes.

  • Unable to install IOS 4.3 Upgrade to new IPAD2/32G/3G

  • Since upgrading to 6.01 iOS the app upgrades are locked up and will not download

    Since upgrading to 6.01 iOS the app upgrades are locked up and will not download.

    My wife's phone had similar symptoms, at least with the text notification alert not working.  I have narrowed it down to happening after we use the new navigation feature in the Maps.  When we power the phone off and back on, the alert sound seems to return.  I haven't tried just "killing" the Maps app after we use it...perhaps that would work as well.
