Is there a way to download iOs7 without having 2.9 gbs free?

I've an 8gb iPhone 4 and currently only have around 400mbs free on my phone but if I only had to download the size of the update I could simply delete some songs. However as it is I'd have to delete over 50% of my music. Is there some way I can just download the update file without needing 2.9 gb free? Would it be possible to take all my music off my phone, download iOS7 delete the stock OS and put the music back on the device?
Any answers to the above questions would be greatly appreciated as would any space saving tips!

So A1332 corresponds to the GSM model from the US.

Based on what I see here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone), I believe that the 3,1 is the one you want. I think the 3,2 was for China.

  • Any way to download IOS7 without needing 3.7GB free space?

    I'm currently using an iPhone 4 that has just 1.1GB free space. I want to download IOS7, but I can't as it says it requires 3.7GB free space.
    I previously tried doing it when I plugged into iTunes, and I clicked update on the computer. However this didn't wory and sent me into recovery mode, meaning I nearly lost all my data. What did I do wrong? Was it because of my lack of space?
    How much room does IOS7 actually take up once downloaded?
    Is there any way to download IOS7 without having to delete all my stuff?
    Thanks.

  • I bought used iMac 2007 with Mavericks installed but iPhotos was missing. I reinstalled Mavericks but didn't get iPhoto. Now if I want it I have to buy it? Is there a way to install it without having to pay for it?

    If you own any verson of iPhoto '11 then there is a free update to version 9.5.x in the App store
    If you own a previous version of iPhto (iPhoto '09 or earlier) then as always an upgrade to a new version (in this case iPhoto '11) is a paid upgrade and you purchase it in the App store
    and no OS update/upgrade contains a version of iPhto - it is a seperate program and although it is included as part of every new Mac it is not a free program and never has been sinve version 1 or 2 (I forget when it changes)

  • Is there a way to download while also having a hard copy of the product?

    I just recently bought Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium Education Edition for one Mac. I have another Mac that doesn't have a CD-Rom drive. Is there a way to download the same copy from Adobe online?

    The quickest method would be to copy the install files to a USB drive on a computer which does have an optical drive.
    You are certainly welcome to download the trial from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=designweb_premium.  You can then enter the serial number for your copy of Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium.

  • I had pages installed on my mac but then my system crashed.  When it was recovered the pages application was gone.  Is there a way to recover it without having to pay for the app again?

    I had pages installed on my imac but then my system crashed.  When I got it recovered the pages application was gone.  Is there a way to recover it without purchasing the app again?

    I have the same issue with pages/keynote and numbers (iWorks).  Came preinstalled when I bought the macbook air back in 2010 (Out of warranty). It crashed a couple of months ago so I took it to Apple but when I got it back the iWorks was no longer there.  I cannot go back to Apple for a few months as there is no Apple store where I am currently.

  • Is there any way for downloading LION without recovery tool? macbook air (mid 2011) ?

    I recently bought a macbook air(mid 2011) and I am using ADSL internet services which needs couple of hours to complete downloading of LION. but when I come back to see what happened few hours after download started, I found myself in Lion Recovery startiting page !
    seems that I am in a endless loop !!
    In addition, Its not possible to download it from app store, since it shows that the application has beed installed already. is there any suggestion ?
    I guess I should first download it using speed download and then install it !

    Have you tried holding the Option key down and then clicking on "Purchases" in the App Store interface? If this works, then you'll see "Install" instead of "Installed" against Lion. Download Lion then -- it will go to your Applications folder -- and do not give your password for installation to execute. You should then have the full Lion installation package in your Applications folder. With "Show Package Contents", in "Shared Support" find InstallESD.dmg. If you burn that to a blank DVD you'll have a Lion Install disc. But since you have a MacBook Air, you could use a (not less than 8 GB capacity) pen drive to store the installation without having to do the full download every time.

  • Macbook pro fan making loud noises and going really fast. Now the fan doesn't work at all and my computer gets extremely hot almost instantly. Is there a way to fix it without having to pay a ton of money to have someone fix it for me?

    I've had my Macbook pro for about 3 1/2 years now. It has worked great until recently. A few months ago I noticed that the fan would always run really fast when I was doing simple tasks. After a few weeks/months, the fan was still really fast but it also started to make these loud noises. Now, it only occasionally makes the loud noise if I move my computer after its been stationary for a while. The fan no longer works at all and my computer gets exceptionally hot almost instantly when I turn it on. Is there a way to fix this problem without having to pay a ton of money to have someone fix it for me?

  • Itunes didn't update install or uninstall is there a way to ininstall itunes without having to re-install windows?

    Will not uninstall, install or update now what windows 7

    I've just (finally) managed to fix this problem today. I checked the Apple Support forums, and it seems a lot of people are having the same problem.
    I rang the Apple Support line, and the very helpful man (thanks Alan!) talked me through it stage by stage. If you go to the following page on the internet:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376   it takes you through the process. WARNING - it takes a little time! The main purpose of this is to remove any trace of the old version of iTunes from your computer...
    Basically, the first thing you have to do is go to your Program Files and double click on your iTunes folder. There'll be a number of files with the suffix .dll - you need to move all the .dll files from that folder to your desktop - you can simply click and drag them on the desktop..
    Next, uninstall iTunes - go to Control Panel / Add/Rempve Programs and when the list comes up remove iTunes. This will take a few minutes... Then reboot your computer.
    Next, go back to Control Panel / Add Remove and Remove - IN THIS ORDER -
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot again!
    Next, check in your Program Files that the iTunes folder is completely gone - if it has, great: if it hasn't, right-click on the folder and press Shift and Delete - it will say "Are you sure you want to completely remove the folder "iTunes"? Click on "Yes".
    Reboot!
    Then go to the iTunes download page and voila! It should download iTunes without any problems... well it did for me.... Good luck!

  • Is there any way to email photos without having to use the themes?  I just want to send them from my email the way you used to be able to without all this "new and improved" nonsense.

    In the old iPhoto, if I wanted to email pictures, I would select the ones I wanted, have them sent as "smaller" to make them easier to process, and iPhoto would open my mail and I could type the names and I wanted and off they'd go.  And, I'd have a copy saved in my "sent" folder.
    Now, you have to deal with these ridiculous themes and in order to get a copy of your sent, you have to blind cc yourself.  This is definitely not an improvement in my mind.
    So I ask, is there any way around this or am I stuck?  I really like iPhoto, but this is enough to send my back to Picasa.

    Never mind gang.  I started seaching through some other support questions, and actually stumbled across the solution to my problem.
    Thanks to "John".

  • HT5449 Is there a way to use this without having to have a constant internet connection?

    I dont always have a live connection but would still like to use the product.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Dictation requires an Internet connection in OS X Mountain Lion, so you can't use Dictation without an Internet connection. Instead, use an app like Dragon Dictate.
    It's a feature that a lot of users have requested and it's possible that it will be included in future Mac OS X versions
