You can update it wether its unlocked or not.
The update does not care where you are, or the state of phone.
Just go to Settings->Software Update 
If it was not officially unlocked, then updating will restore the phone to which ever carrier it was locked to before it was unlocked.
If it was purchased from an Apple Store in the US, and was requested as unlocked from there then it is officially unlocked.

  • Im having Iphone 3GS purchased from USA right now im in India so if i update my ios from 4 to 5 will my phone get locked..? if so can how to unloack that? i want to update the ios 5 please help

    im using iphone 3GS with ios 4.1;the iphone is purchased from USA and unlocked;I live in India so if I update to IOS 5 will my phone get locked? if so how to unlock in that case? please help

    No 3GS sold in the US was ever unlocked officially. Any attempts to update a hacked or un-officially unlocked iPhone will likely result in it being relocked to the original carrier.

  • IPhone 3GS - Purchased from Vodafone Egypt

    This is a question directed towards Apple employees. I would have preferred to use a support email address, but having browsed Apple websites designated for several different countries I have still not been able to locate such an e-mail address. Therefore I think this forum is the most appropriate place for this question.
    I have a question which relates to an iPhone 3GS which was given to me as a Christmas present 6 months ago. As my family and I are temporarily living in Egypt the iPhone was purchased from the leading local operator, Vodafone. The phone is locked to this network, which while I am in Egypt is perfectly fine.
    However, as our temporary living in Egypt has come to an end and we are moving to Saudi Arabia I would like to be able to use my iPhone in Saudi Arabia. I have been in touch with Vodafone Egypt with hopes of being able to untie my phone from their network, but they have said that they will not be able to help with this.
    I have a hard time believing that Apple would sell a product like this and have it tied down to one country. This in effect renders their products useless for people who frequently move around. I would certainly like to continue using this product and I it certainly does not make sense to me that it will be rendered useless simply because I am moving to a different country.
    My question therefore is if there is any way to remove the network lock on this iPhone in order for me to be able to use it when I move away from Egypt?
    I hope someone within in Apple will be able to answer this question or at least provide an explanation as to why a product would be sold in such a manner.

    Sorry, but as it says in the Terms of Use, Apple does not provide technical nor customer support here. So you will not receive any official answer to your question from any Apple employee. The only responses you will get is from we your fellow users. Apple also provides no email customer or technical support.
    The only answer anyone here can provide is that neither of the cell carriers in Egypt that sell the iPhone provide unlocking. That is the cell carrier's policy and Apple has no power to override it. So no, there will be no way of unlocking your iPhone. Even if you could it would be inadvisable to try and keep it when you move to another country since the warranty and support for an Egyptian-sold iPhone would only be provided in Egypt, requiring you to send the iPhone back to Egypt should it ever need service.
    I'd suggest you just sell your Egyptian iPhone when you are ready to leave the country, and buy a new one, if you wish to continue with the iPhone, when you reach your permanent residence. The iPhones sold in Saudi Arabia are not locked to the local carrier.
    Regards.

    I am not sure what you mean by "Flash Player for steam"; the only Flash Player installers I know is the ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and the plugin (for other browsers); you can find both at http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header

  • Hello , I have iphone 4 , its from austrellia , i have unlocked it using IEMI no.

    Hello , I have iphone 4 , its from austrellia , i have unlocked it using IEMI no. but it shows SOS only.
    i am not getting whether my iphone is unlocked or not. n also when i inset any sim card it shows message like sim failure. SO, can anyone tell me how to resolve these problems ??

    The only way you can unlock the iPhone via legitimate means is by contacting the carrier the phone is locked to. Unlocking using "unlocking services" via the web or IMEI or any othert means will not work, and usually brick your phone.
    Most of these sites are scams and you probably have been a victim of one. Contact the carrier the phone is locked to for an unlock.

    Thanks in anticipation.

    You will need to contact Support in your country to get the security questions reset (these are user-to-user forums) : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security (if your account's password has been changed then they should also be able to reset that for you)
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to change the rescue email address to an account that you have access to, for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses

  • Trying to Import music i purchased from old account to new & can't remember old account info

    Trying to Import music i purchased from old account to new & can't remember old account info nor does it exsist.  what to do???   thanks

    This isn't really an iTunes Match questions but I'll give it a shot.
    Unfortunately, you must remember the username and password for that account. If you can't you won't be able to play that protected music. There's really no way around this.

  • HT4914 I had 1235 songs on my iPad 3 I subscribed to iTunes Match and it deleted all of my songs except for 79 that I had purchased from iTunes Store. How can I recover my lost songs???

    Hi,
    If the tracks were not in your iTunes library on your computer when you subscribed to match, I am afraid that they are lost. Do you have a separate back up of this music?

    I synced a movie from my laptop 2 my iPad but lost some music video I purchased from iTunes store. How can I get them back ? Thxs

    Sorry, but movies cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

  • HT4972 my iphone is not installed sim card.so I can't update my iphone.

    my iphone is not installed sim card.so I can't update my iphone.

    That's correct, without a supported SIM card you can't set up the phone.
    If your carrier supports unlocking, you can use any SIM after your phone has been unlocked by the provider:
    iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features
    iPhone: About unlocking
    Follow the instructions in this article to unlock your iPhone for use with different carriers.
    Follow these instructions to initiate the unlocking process for your iPhone:
    Check if your carrier offers unlocking. Only your carrier can unlock your iPhone.
    Contact your carrier and request an unlock.You may need to meet certain requirements to qualify for unlocking. After your carrier submits the unlocking request, it may take up to seven days.
    Once you receive confirmation from your carrier that your iPhone unlock has been processed, proceed to the next section.
    If you have a SIM card from a carrier that is different from your current carrier, and you've received confirmation from your current carrier that your iPhone is unlocked, follow these steps:
    Eject your SIM card and insert the new SIM card.
    Complete the setup process.
    If you do not currently have another SIM card you can use, follow these steps to complete the process:
    Back up your iPhone.
    Erase your iPhone.
    Complete the setup assistant and restore your backup.
    Additional Information
    If you experience issues or receive the following error message displayed in iTunes or on your device, follow the steps below:"The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please insert the SIM card that came with your iPhone or visit a supported carrier store."
    Restore your iPhone.
    Contact your carrier to verify that the unlock was applied in your carrier's system.

  • I bought over a Mac Book Pro from a friend. I can't update iPhoto and other apps as it seems like these are tagged to the previous owner's account. Pls advise.

    I bought over a Mac Book Pro from a friend. I can't update iPhoto and other apps as it seems like these are tagged to the previous owner's account. It basically requires me to sign in to my fren's account which is absurb! Because iphoto comes with mac isn't it?

    Contact your "friend." Have him set up the MBP for your with your own account, settings and passwords. You are not running IOS 5.1. That is for iPhone and iPad users. What OS are you running? Did he give you the OS installer disks?

    You were probably using the Release Candidate version of camera raw 8.7, which one gets from Adobe Labs.
