Ios update for 3560-C : WS-C3560CG-8PC-S

Hi
I plan to buy WS-C3560CG-8PC-S (Catalyst 3560-C) for my home lab. I just created a new account on cisco.com (I did not register any equipment or contract for that new account). I was able to download ios 12 and 15 for that switch.
- Will I be able to flash one of these versions when I will have the new switch ?
Cisco warranty for these Switchs (Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty, www.cisco-servicefinder.com/warrantyfinder.aspx) says NO OS Software Updates included. Does tha mean that I can download ios updates but won't be able to flash the device or use it ?
- Do I really have to buy Smartnet support to be able to update ios for that switch ?
Thanks by advance

Hello just to answer some of your points.
- Everybody with an cisco account and without contract can download universal ios. The universal ios file can't be used without an proper license. So it doesn't matter
Maybe this is the case, may just come with a base feature set. Ip base or LAN base?
- 3560CG comes with an IP Base license and can't be upgraded to IP Services
It can be upgraded to ip services. You need the correct image or license, depending on which major version you go with, I.e. 12 or 15.
12 you can download the correct firmware with the feature set, with 15 you need a license.
- So I suppose that I will be able to update 3560CG with any universal ios version and "stay" at IP Base level
Depending on what feature set the universal image has without licenses. I assume its base.
- Smartnet is required if you need support (TAC) or quick (4, 8 hours) hardware replacement
Yes I believe so, although I think the thing you call smartnet, I call Cisco service support contract..?
- Smartnet is not required for normal (days) hardware replacement as 3560CG warranty is lifetime of the product (except power for 5 years)
This information should all be in the service support contract.
Hope this helps.

    will there be an ios update for ipod 2 gen ?

    I doubt it since it has been over a year since Apple released an update for the 2G iPod. A 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
    A 1G to iOS 3.1.3.

    Hi, hoopsnut34. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    The most common cause for the screen not rotating would be the Screen Rotation Lock button is enabled.  Here are the steps on how to disable this feature.

  • IOS update for ipod touch

    Where can I find IOS updates for my Ipod Model number MA623LL?

    You have the original iPod touch. It can only go as high as iOS 3.1.3.
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

    how do i get iOS updates for my ipad?  I never received an automatic update for it.

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • How do I get a iOS update for my iPod Touch 2nd gen.? Where's the love for us?

    How come no updates for iOS for 2 gen iPod touch owners like me?
    Where's the love for us?

    Did you think that your ipod would get software updates forever?
    Really?  This is noting new or unusual at all. 
    The older hardware in computers/ipods/iphones/televisions/dvd players/cars/etc does not support any and all new software that ever comes out.
    Your ipod touch operates as it always has - with several updates from the original software.  However, the newest software is not available for the 2nd gen.

  • Phone call function for Ipad mini & iOS update for Iphone 4

    Hi,
    Why isn't apple doing phone call on the Ipad Mini. I understand being exclusive but i've been an apple user for over 2 years now and i like using apple products. I've notice samsung has incorporated these features in their Galaxy Tab 2. By doing so, Apple is loosing it's edge against its competitor. Hope that these funtion will be incorporated in the next iOS update.
    On another note, why isn't siri included in the iOS 6.0.1 update for iphone 4. I'm not sure why android based phone could enjoy each of the new features that they release and apple can't do the same. I can understand from a business point of view but it will also affect customer's satisfaction. Appreciate if the team could consider giving the same treatment to all the apple products in terms of it's software updates and new features. 
    I'm not sure if the team is aware that apple products cost a BOMB in Malaysia. For an Iphone5 16GB, it's retail price is at RM 2,199.00 ( not inclusive of call & data plan ). Taking the cheapest call + data package from a telco provider could be as much as RM100/month ( RM1,200.00 per year ). The rational of changing an iphone is not appealing because of the huge cost. 
    As such, apprecaite that apple could at least extend all new features in it's iOS releases to all apple products.
    Thanks,

    Hi Andrey,
    I think I have figured it out. It has to do with my iCloud account. After a lot of reasearch I found a bunch of people with the same problem, and the fix for now is to COMPLETELY DELETE your iCloud account. Simply turning everything off does not work. I immediately did this on my wife and my phones and everything went back to normal.
    It appears to be a bug, because mine was only supposed to be updating my "notes" which shouldnt take 30 megs a day. Hope they fix it soon.

  • IOS update for iPod 4th generation

    Will there be an update for iPod 4th generation? Or is Apple forcing us to buy a more recent product to get the ios7 update?

    No
    As Apple announced in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod touch
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • Does this mean that ios 6.0.1 will be the last ios update for ipad 2 and iphone 4s?

    With the release of ios 6.0.2, which is only available for the iphone 5 (and ipad mini) does this mean that ios 6.0.1 will be the last software update for the 4s?

    As that was only a bugfix update specific to those devices, no.

  • Issue with iTunes view for podcasts with the latest iOS update (for my Macbook Air, Sept 21, 2013)

    I just got the latest update for iOS for my Macbook Air - and now all of my previously deleted podcast episodes are showing up as available for download from the cloud - which is clogging up my iTunes display.  How can I get these previously downloaded, listened to, and deleted episodes off of my podcast view/list?

    "Not only did it download a new version of itunes, but it also downloaded MS Word updates, and other software that required updating."
    MS Word is not an Apple product so it could not've downloaded with all the Apple software updates.
    "I clicked File > Check for Updates"
    What program were you running to do that?
    In any case boot from your OS installer disk and run Repair Disk from Disk Uility.
