IOS 6.1.3 needs to be updated.  But is it necessary????

My facetime is not working, am connected to Internet, so am wondering if I have to update from 6.1.3 to 7.  Am concerned with all problems with updates.  Any help will be appreciated.  Thanks BJZTX

Do you have to update?  No.  Do I recommend you update?  Absolutely.

  • An app I downloaded is no longer showing up on my screen. The app store shows thar it needs to be updated, but the update bottom is colored light, not dark.

    I downloaded Pandora a while back. My 12 year old nieces were playing with my iPad and now the Pandora icon is not on my screen. The app store shows that it needs to be updated, but I can't do it. What can it do to recover my Pandora program?

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, my query is not so much about the sale of the company and the dream. I agree with you on that point. Good for them. My frustration is that this old app has now caused a glitch in my Apple App Store icon. I have a red badge with one update and it is referring to the old app that has been sold that needs to be updated. When I try to update the app it says no longer available for purchase. So I have since deleted that app in hopes that it would resolve the red badge issue. It has not. Somehow, that old app and the new app with the same name but by a different company has caused the glitch. I have reset all settings on my iPad, I have rebooted, I have deleted the app and still the red badge with the one update for the old app is there. Hmmm. . . I guess I need to take this into the Genius bar or wait for ios 7 in hopes that it will fix the glitch. Thanks again for your help.

    The original iPad can be updated to iOS 5.1.1. All more recent iPads can be updated to iOS 6.1.
    If your iPad is running an iOS version prior to 5.0 you must update the iOS by connecting the iPad to your computer.
    Start iTunes on the computer you normally sync with and connect your iPad.
    Select your pad in iTunes on your computer.
    Select Summary from the row of tabs presented.
    Scroll down under Summary to find Check for Updates.
    Follow the prompts. You might also disable virus protection software on your computer while doing the update. You can turn it back on when the update is complete.

  • Trying to update my software (iPhone and iPad) it says my iTunes software needs to be updated, but it is already is. I try this over and over again. I've already reinstalled iTunes and have shut down and restarted my Mac several times. How can I fix this?

    This is what worked:
    "In iTunes, I signed out of the store. I exited itunes and restarted it, logged back into the store (with my apple id), then I pulled down the iTunes menu in the menu bar and selected Check for updates.
    At this point it said that iTunes 11.1 was available and I'm downloading now " Quoted from a fellow user.
    It fixed my problem.

  • Hi i have an iphone 4 that needs to be updated but my phone is using the cellular company simple mobile via gsm chip and my phone isnt jailbroken will this mess up my phone.

    hi i have an iphone 4 that needs to be updated but my phone is using the cellular company simple mobile via gsm chip and my phone isnt jailbroken will this mess up my phone.

    If your iPhone is truly unlocked - purchased as unlocked through Apple
    or through wireless provider that sells unlocked iPhones or unlocked
    by a wireless provider, then the update should not mess up your iPhone.
    If your iPhone was jailbroken or hacked to change wireless providers,
    then the update will relock it to the original wireless provider if you are lucky
    or turn it into a useless brick if unlucky.
    Back up first to protect against glitches or other problems.

  • Ever since i downloaded Lion i cant open my photobooth, it says it needs to be updated but i dont know how without opening it

    After downloading the new Lion, my photobooth doesnt open. I click it and it bounced on my dock then a screen pops up basically saying it needs to be updated but i dont know how to update it without opening up the app. What do i do?

    Saturday, from inside my pictures folder, I opened PhotoBooth for the first time since installing Lion.  The same message was given to me.  I said OK, or something, and it updated with the new app., icons etc. with no problems.  Wish I could help you more but I am a bit mystified as to why it didn't update with the Lion install in the first place?

  • The App Store says I have 3 apps that need to be updated but when I go to update no apps show up

    The App Store says I have 3 apps that need to be updated but when I go to update no apps show up

    I have a similar problem and have had this before.
    I rang Apple the first time and they said because I had 2 Apple ID's this can happen so I cancelled one Apple ID (which is another problem and drama in itself) and that resolved the issue.
    I now have the problem again with only one Apple ID so I've transferring purchases from my iPhone and iPad to iTunes. Then I synced again and hoped for the best. Unlucky! Didn't work. Time to call Apple support again...

  • What can I do when iPhoto says it needs an software update but can't find it??

    Hi there,
    I had issues with the HD from my old Mac mini.
    So I installed Mac OS X snow leopard on an external HD.
    Next step was installing iPhoto from a cd.
    When I try to start it, it says it needs a software update.
    Only when I search for it, it says it can't find a software uPdate for iPhoto??
    What can I do to solve this problem. I always enjoyed iPhoto and it ***** that I can't use it now
    Thanks in advance

    Back up your iPhoto library and Download the 9.1 iPhoto update and install it

  • IPod and iTunes say there are two apps that need to be updated but when I click into it it says all apps are up to date. Has anyone else had this issue??? And is there anything I can do to fix it??

    iPod says two updates but says all apps are up to date

    Hey Eric,
    Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
    Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated.

  • The iOS device software needs to be updated,but APP Store Update page appears as a blank page.

    Need help.Thanks!

    You don't update an iPad's iOS version via the App Store app. If you are already on iOS 5+ then you should have a Settings > General > Software Update option for direct update on the iPad. If you are on iOS 4 then you can only update via your computer's iTunes.
    To update via your computer, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

  • My computer says that my iPhone version of iTunes needs to be updated, but I cannot find an update for my phone

    How do I update my iTunes on my iPhone manually?

    Not positive here, but if your iPhone is using iOS 6, I think you need iTunes 10.7, which isn't available for Mac OS 10.5.
    My new iPhone 5 isn't compatible with my iMac G5, fortunately I have a MacBookPro that is compatible.
    Sorry.
    Good luck.

  • My ipod touch is saying that I can't connect to itunes because i need the latest update but when i hook it up to my computer it says i have the latest update. where do i go from here?

    i just got an ipod touch secondhand. when i try to go to itunes its says "request cannot be completed" then when i search for apps on the internet and try to download them it say I need to update my itunes, but then when I sync my ipod to my computer its says I have the most recent update.

    I think that the message is telling you that you need a newer version of the iOS on your iPod.  If the computer has iTunes 10.5 installed then your iPod is maxed out.
    - A 1G iPod can go to 3.1.3 and you get that here:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    - A 2G to 4.2.1
    - A 3g and 4G to 5.

    That option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you are on iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off it via File > Transfer Purchases (you may also want to copy photos off the iPad as well) and then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.

    You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.
