Software won't update on old phone

Trying to use my old iphone as an i-touch but having trouble syncing the apps that I want because they require a newer software version. Each time I try to update the software, the phone freezes up. I am concerned about putting my current sim card in the phone and then updating the software...will it erase any of my current data? Is this what I need to do to make the software update so I can download the apps?

It takes Mac OS X 10.5, a newer version of the operating system, to use iTunes 10.
Check out the software requirements at the bottom left of the download page:

My ipad1 won't update and doesn'tshow to update software

Hello 3512931312,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have an iPad (1st generation) and would like to update the software on it. The latest supported iOS version available to the iPad (1st generation) is iOS 5.1.1. If your iOS version is lower than that and you would like to update, I would suggest attempting the update with your computer using the instructions located Update your device using iTunes section in the attached article.

Have a great day,

Aluminum Keyboard software won't update

Leopard notices that I need an "Aluminum Keyboard Firmware Update" 1.0
I click the box, then, install, and I get the following screens...
1) Updates were installed successfully.
2) Software Update is still Active... Quit Software Update and click continue.
Whatever I seam to do, the software does not update. Any suggestions would be VERY helpful!

I had the same problem. Actually, I did not know it had not updated properly until I ran the software update application again the next day and noticed that I still needed the Aluminum Keyboard Firmware Update. So, again, I selected install software. This time though I closed the software update installer application, as instructed. Then I pressed continue to install the update. The bar ran across my screen showing that the software was updating. It installed successfully.
After the install, I noticed immediately that I can now move my keyboard further away from my iMac. I love the smaller keyboard. It is perfect for working from my lap. I am glad Apple made a wireless keyboard without the 10-keypad for people like me who never use the 10-keypad anyway. Thanks Apple!

Went from 8320-8310, now my desktop software won't see my new phone?

Hey guys,
I recently had my 8320 (t-mobile) stolen and bought an unlocked 8310. I got a new sim card, went through that all and now I am trying to connect my phone to my desktop software (4.7) and it won't recognize the thing. The phone also says it isn't getting sufficient current to charge... I have tried resetting my phone, restarting my computer, switching cords.... any ideas how I can fix this? I want to restore my contacts and other info to my new phone.
Thanks,
Sean

My next suggestion would be to disconnect your BB and USB, and reboot the PC from powered off.
Do the same with the BlackBerry device.
Then, reconnect the BB to the USB, and THEN, try to connect.

OS X Server Software won't update to 2.2.1

Hey everybody,
since a few weeks we get a notification from the App Store on our Mac Mini Server, that there is an update available for the OS X Server (current version: 2.0.23).
The OS X Server software was purchased with the Mac Mini (which is a Mid 2011) and runs without any problems.
But as soon, as we want to update we get the message, that we don't have the "extended license" to update the software. Now that wouldn't be a big problem, if we would get the chance to actually BUY that extended license.
Now we tried most common things you try if something like that happens:
- restarted everthing
- tried different Apple-IDs
Do you guys have any clue, what we could try additionally to solve this "problem"?
Thanks up front!
Tim

I have an original day 1 phone. I am attempting to update to 2.1 and after downloading the software, when I connect to iTunes I first get an message "waiting for iPhone" and then after about 1 minute it gives me this message " The iPhone cannot be used with iTunes because the information required for activation could not be obtained from the iPhone." I have checked that the SIM is inserted correctly and it is not PIN - locked.
I have restarted the phone, computer and coffee pot.
Any help would be appreciated...phone in emergency only mode.

ICloud email won't update on my phone

My iCloud account on my iPhone keeps using my old email (I updated my apple ID) , I can't delete the account from my phone because it requires a password but there isn't one for that email anymore. Its driving me crazy because I cant update anything propery because it keeps asking for the password for a nonexistent account, then says my login is incorrect. All my other devices work fine and the apple id on my phone is correct. Seems to be a glitch I cant get around!

Delete ICloud Account then log back in put in the correct Apple ID & Password
If that will not work go to APPLEID HELP Apple.com

My time won't update on my phone

my iphone 5c will not keep the time and date updated. i've reset phone and it is still doing it. What can i do to fix this?

Are you connected to cellular? If you go to Settings>General>Date & Time, is it set to Automatically? Date & Time information when the device is set to Automatic comes from the cellular carrier's towers.

Software won't update

This may be operator error but I'm new to this. My blackberry pearl 8100 was operating on a VERY outdated version (like version 4.2.0.73 or something of that nature). I downloaded the desktop software version 4.6, plugged in my blackberry and went to the blackberry website and hit the update button. It went through the entire download, then at the very end told me the digital signature wasn't valid and stopped the download. It has done this 3 times!!! What am I doing wrong? Help!!!!

Hello,
You should follow this procedure and reload your OS.
Good luck!

Adobe software won't update

Since getting a new computer I've never been able to run Adobe software updates. I just uninstalled and reinstalled in safe mode and am still getting the same error stating that the software (update) didn't download. What can I do to fix this?

Hi Kevin,
Im having a hard time getting a good answer but, Im upgraded from 5.5 to 6.0 and need to quickly add my custom mapkey setting from one to the other.
It was very frustrating to find out that from 5.0 to 5.5 that I had to recreate them all as a power editor and in Final Cut Pro we were able to export or find them very easily.
My biggest pet pee is that I have been told that I need to look for a .kys but, on my MacPro searching on SPOTLIGHT is doesnt exist anywhere.
I urgently need ADOBE to make this more evident because its is really a key root feature that needs to have some attention too.
Im a part of the Bay Area Professional Video Association in San Jose and this is a basic need to be able to export or find my custom mapkey file for PPRO5.5 for 6.0.
