Iphone won't update to new 8.0 operating system

MY iphone 4 says that it has the latest version operating system but it doesn't.
I have tried:
deleting apps so as to have enough space.
syncing the phone.
updating through i-tunes.
I am trying to update to the new 8.0 operating system. Ideas?

You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8. The highest you can update iPhone 4 is IOS 7.1.2.
If you want IOS8 you need iPhone 4s or later.

  • IPhone 4 - tried updating with new software and now it's asking me to plug it to iTunes. The problem is that my laptop is dead. Is there anything I can do now? Thank you for help!

    iPhone 4 - tried updating with new software and now it's asking me to plug it to iTunes. The problem is that my laptop is dead. Is there anything I can do now?
    I Don't know if I can turn it of or do I just leave it and take it to service?
    I'd appreciate some advice!

    Same thing happened here ~ tech guy at a local authorized Apple repair store said it had something to do with improper backup from which the restore would be made. Still have a phone that asks to be connected to Itunes but won't do anything else . . . frustrated.

  • I updated my IPhone 3GS to the new 5.1 operating system and have since had a range of problems with not only my phone but also my IPad.

    I updated my IPhone 3GS to the new 5.1 operating system and have since had a range of problems with not only my phone but also my IPad.
    Programs (Safari, mail, messages) keep crashing, mail will not delete properly (some will keep popping into my inbox again for no reason!!!), slow, settings lock up etc. etc.
    This only seemed to become an issue once I updated to ios 5.1 and funnily also affected my Ipad even though i hadn't updated the software yet. I have since updated the software on my ipad thinking it might help too but that only made things worse!! So I am not sure if it's an ICloud issue, but when i try to disable ICloud my devices lock up as well.
    The battery life is also shocking!!
    I have hard reset both devices, restored both devices, reset the setting and tried a whole host of other suggestions (like closing background programs) on this forum buit nothing works and i am tearing my hair out.
    I looked in the phone and ipad log and there do seem to be low memory reports though i don't know why these are occuring now when they never have before??
    I don't know if I can restore the old operating system (If I can please let me know how). The phone or ipad are not jailbroken.

    but you should have a backup in itunes.
    Every time you sync your iOS device iTunes creates a backup. go check if its there, iTunes Preferences >Devices. and there you should see if you have a backup, and in case from which date the backup is.
    And ofcourse you can get your icloud data back by just logging in with your Appleid under icloud in settings on the iphone.
    But anyway, if the iPhone works when you restor it as new: try adding your backup, and see if the issue comes back. And experiment with your backup and try to work out what is causing the issue, my guess is that its some app!   Good Luck!

  • Does iTunes Connect Christmas break mean apps won't update with new folios over Christmas?

    I have 2 folios that are due to be released to my app this Christmas - both fall within the 22nd-29th window iTunes have chosen to close down.
    So even though I can publish my folios through DPS over Christmas and pre-plan my app description in iTunes accordingly - before the 22nd - will those published folios not appear in my app?
    Thanks.

    You mean updating a paid folio... don't know if that needs approving, too.
    Maybe someone else can chime in here (I have no exp in that)

    iPhone won't update to iOS 6.1.3

    I've rebooted the iPhone 4 several times (holding the home+power buttons down for several seconds. I've re-installed iTunes and finally got the IOS 6.1.3 update.
    The whole process took over 5 hours.
    Now, if only iTunes would not give me an error message trying to connect to my iPhone - i may be able to restore my apps...   :-(

  • My 3G iphone won't update from 3.1.3.

    My 3G iphone won't update from 3.1.3. Was running iTunes 10.2.1 and had to turn off wireless for iTunes to recognize the phone. Have installed iTunes 10.4, but now it doesn't open right away. When it finally does, it recognizes the phone and reminds me it needs updating. I can back up/sync normally, but when I try to update the software, I get the back up status bar for 24+ hours. It never installs the software. As a result, I have not updated the phone's software.

  • Since I upgraded to the new iOS 7 operating system for my iphone, I can no longer adjust the volume on my alarm. No matter what setting the volume of my phone is my alarm is always full blast. Since I hate being startled awake, what can I do?

    Go to your home screen, and then press the volume down or up button. It should say Ringer instead of volume. If it doesn't do that, try going into the clock app and try it there.

  • So I just bought a used MacBook from Amazon with OSX 10.5.8.  I am trying to install new software and operating system, but I don't have the passwords to the Users set up in the computer.  What do I do?

    So I just bought a used MacBook from Amazon with OSX 10.5.8.  I am trying to install new software and operating system, but I don't have the passwords to the Users set up in the computer.  What do I do?

    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.

  • 3rd generation ipod touch won't update to new OS

    I have an ipod touch, 3rd generation, 64G, model no. A1318 that has given me headaches every time there is an OS update. I usually end up with an ipod that needs to be restored and then upon restore the OS is updated. This time however, nothing is working. I get different error messages (this time it was error 1602 and then upon restore it was 3194). I really want to update my ipod as I use it a lot and this is driving me nuts. This time I can not reload apps that I has previously (like ibooks) because I need the update but it won't update. Can anyone give me any helpful suggestions please. I have read other threads and YES I AM POSITIVE it is 3RD GENERATION. Thanks

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
