OTA install for ios 6 to 7

We are preparing for support in the day of launch of the update. I have test devices ready to go from a clean ios 6.1.3 (iphone 4 and 4s) so I am looking to figure out if they will be able to get iOS 7 via OTA on wifi.
If not I will also need to prepare an itunes environment to get the install on launch day from the office locations, this is the main reason it would be helpful to know limitations and restrictions for iPhone 4x devices to receive this OTA wifi

You should be able to do the update over wi-fi but before you do that please back up all the devices. If you lose the wi-fi connection or internet connection at the time of updating the phone you can lose everything off that device. While it goes into recovery mode.

  • Adobe flash impossible to install for iOS

    Hi All, do you know if there is any program for iOS which is replacing Adobe Flash?

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
      1. Puffin
      2. SkyFire
      3. Photon Flash
      4. Browse2Go
      5. Swifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."
    Download the Facebook app from the iTunes Store. Sign in with your Facebook ID and Password and you won't require flash to play videos.

  • HT4623 Update has installed for ios 7 - why can't I install it??

    Hi There
    Can anyone help, Keep getting message that the software update is unavaliable?? HELP!!
    Thank you

    The "unavailable" may have nothing to do with the setup on your end. The servers are crazy busy right now (everyone and their brother seems to be updating right at release, not sure why), so it could just be that it's having problems establishing a connection. May want to try it again later tonight or tomorrow.

  • HT201210 My download for iOS 7 was interrupted, it has downloaded but not installed. it goes through routine Terms & Agreements and everything, but when i try to update it tries to verify the update then says that the update is not available.

    I dont understand, when i try to update it will go through routine apple stuff, then it it will say " Software Update Unavailable (under) Software Update is not available at this time. Try again later." The thing is that i was downloading it and my wi-fi had restarted for some unknown reason and it downloaded onto my phone but not installed. and at the moment it is really bothering me because I have waited a long time for iOS 7 and I am not being allowed to update my phone to it and i just wanted to know how to fix it. Thank you.

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to download it right now. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • HT6162 My phone will not let me download the most recent update for iOS 7.1. It says I need a wifi connection and will not allow me to push the 'Download & Install' button, even when I am at home and my wifi is on. How do I fix this?

    Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
    The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
    Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

  • I have a 4th gen ipod touch. I deleted soundcloud to reload it but now i cant install it cause its only for iOS 7 when it used to have a iOS 6 version. Any idea on how i can get soundcloud on my ipod? cause it sure wont let me now

    Basically when i try to reinstall it says its only for iOS 7 or later and that I cant install it. Ive tried everything at this point.
    someone help

    Use this method:
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
