Trying to Download IOS Update via ITunes

Hi.....I have an IPhone 4. Im not able to download the most recent IOS7.0.6 update via wireless and am trying to update via ITunes.Phone is plugged in to PC. I have verified that I have the latest version of ITunes. However, when I go to file-devices, Backup is greyed out and the only option is "Restore from Backup". What am I doing wrong??

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

Unsuccessful update via iTunes. It asks to restore to factory settings.

I was trying to update via iTunes and it said unsuccessful update. Why I do not know i didn't do anything while it was updating. Didn't even touch the computer. It says i have to restore the phone to factory settings. Is there anyway I can keep this from happening? It says iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this phone before it can be used with iTunes. Then when i try and restore it it only says restore to factory settings. I will lose all data, photos and videos on there.

Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help. Thanks Apple for such a crappy update! I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone. Sheesh! If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
Restore your device while connected to a different network.
Restore using a different computer.

I had tried and restore again and again via itunes and it said the same answers. My donwload was corrupt.

For now, my iphone still in recovery mood and the logo connect to i tunes appear when i switch on. I tried use another usb, another computer and another port to restore this but all method was failed. What the problem? Help me.

Hi there besiburuk,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.

Check USB connections

If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

IOS update via iTunes vs via WiFi

Just for my curiosity. What is the difference between updating the iOS with iTunes vs WiFi?
the reason why I am asking this because I read somewhere that sometime users have issue after the update their iOS over WiFi. Same user that update to the same iOS via iTunes does not have the same issue. I am talking about Battery Life, or Wifi Problem, or BlueTooht Issue, or Software Bug.
It is possibile that there is a minimum differece in software when the updated is maded over the WiFi vs iTunes?
Thank you

The OTA updates provides a delta update only while iTunes provided the whole build.
Some users have issues after installing the whole build with iTunes as well. If there is a problem after installing the delta update OTA, restoring the iPhone with iTunes to install the whole build for the update may resolve the problem.
I have installed all iOS updates OTA since the option became available and I haven't experienced any problems after doing so yet.

Iphone 5 doesn´t work after an ios 8.2 update via itunes

I was updating my iphone 5 model A1429 via itunes on my windows 7 computer,
it was extracting the software when my computer died and it was showing the apple icon and a grey progress bar on the iphone.
When I turned on my computer again, the itunes said "unexpected error occured, couldn´t update the phone" or something like that and that´s it.
Since then itunes doesn´t recognize my device and on my iphone there is still the apple icon and the grey progress bar.
What can I do?

Data update via iTunes with 2 iphone.

Hi there,
I would like to ask if there is 2 iphone available with only one PC in the house available for doing updates using itunes, does that means it's impossible to have difference data in both phone? as it's 2 difference person owning an iphone they can't be having all the same data in their phone, like music, photos etc..
I would like to know how can I solve this problem, can it be done if using 2 difference user acct in the same PC?
I hope someone can help, I'm sorry if my question sounds dumb as I'm not very knowledgeable in IT stuffs.
Thanks u so much.

Yes, you can sync multiple iPhones to the same computer. You can:
1) Sync to the same user account, selecting different playlists, etc., to sync - if using Outlook, this can become a problem to select different contacts/calendars for each device
2) Sync to two different user accounts on the same computer. In that case, it's best to share the iTunes music library across those user accounts, as described here:

Can iPhone apps be updated via iTunes v download from home network?

I thought that by connecting my iphone through itunes on my laptop I could get all updates for my apps through itunes via synching and it would go very fast. I have 27 apps currently updating and it has taken nearly 35 mins and the app updates are still downloading. It's fine I guess when I'm home but I just updated apps a few weeks ago outside of my home network and AT&T had a field day with the amount of data I downloaded, especially since I couldn't cancel the updates.
Also, is there any blessed way to cancel the updates (yes I know they are meant to be there for a reason, but if I don't want them downloading via a cellular network, can I cancel or pause until I am into my home network?
Thanks,
Bill

First of all, your profile above indicates you are running OS X 10.6.8. Is this true? If so, realize this is the oldest version of OS X that supports the current iTunes (11.2.2). So once the next version of iOS is released, it seems likely that you would either be required to upgrade your OS X or no longer be able to sync your iPhone.
Given you are running an iTunes version that supports your iPhone, open iTunes on your computer, click the "Apps" tab, then click "Check for Updates" in the lower right. After you have done that, syncing your iPhone using iTunes will cause the latest versions of the iOS apps to be downloaded to your iPhone from your iTunes.

I'm trying to update my iphone 4 to IOS 5.0.1 but there is no space to backup on drive C so i can't continue updating via itunes

iTunes requires about 11 GB space when there is only 500 MB free on local disk C and its all windows stuff i can't delete. how can i update ?
my current IOS is 4.3.3
thanks

You can't, you need to offload some of your Windows stuff, or possibly look into getting a remote hard drive to copy some of your content. Bottom line, if all you have is 500MB of free disk space then you need to free up some space or get more.
Good Luck!

My iphone 3Gs has gone into recovery mode after updating via itunes..help..

I plugged my iphone 3gs into itunes yesterday and it started to update the software - presumabley to 10.5? - came back to it an hour later and it was displaying an image of a usb cable and itunes symbol which i now undertand means its gone into recovery mode.
I tried to restore it to the factory settings as advised but it won't work. Its telling me "This device could not be restored, it is not eligible for the requested build"
Please help - this phone is not jailbroken!

Ok, after 2 nights searching forums and trying different things I have managed to find a solution. I had to add a '# ' at the begining of the host directory. This means nothing to me and I had to follow the steps in the following link but it worked perfectly -
