Hi Shady_,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you are getting an error when trying to update. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
Check your computer for software or settings that might cause communication issues between your computer and Apple or between your computer and your device.
Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" - Apple Support
Restore or update on another computer
Try to restore or update on another computer with a different Internet connection. This will help rule out other issues on your computer that might stop iTunes from communicating with the update server.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Mario

  • Trouble with activation after upgrading to iOS 7.0

    This is ridiculous. Still having trouble with activating my phone after upgrading to iOS 7.0. How does Apple expect us to make / receive phone calls???

    It may take a while becuse millions of people are doing it at the same time. Patience young grasshopper. Try restarting the phone and then try activating again. It took mine a good long time before the activation completed successfully

    Im having trouble sending messages from my iPhone 4..ever since i upgraded to iOS 5, its giving me this problem. It says your SMS mailbox is full. Delete some messages to recieve new messages. 
    I've deleted around 10 huge conversations, rebooted it, restored it, done a soft and hard reset too. What should i do?

    my boyfriend restored his iphone as a brand new phone and still had this problem, he deleted all his text conversations except mine and his best friend's conversations still nothing, i told him to delete OUR conversation since its a 2 year conversation that he has NEVER deleted ..... he said YES!! we tried to delete it and the phone freezes as soon as we click on the CLEAR CONVERSATION button!!!! we tried about 5 times and this happened everytime we tried!!!! ....is like the phone doesnt wanna let go of our conversation!!! every other conversation he deleted the phone was fine except for when we try and delete ours!!
    so yesterday he left his phone alone around 4 pm since we have the apple appointment today at 130pm.......around 11 pm last night his phone went NUTS receiving all the text messages i had sent and never received!!!! and now the phone works just fine!!! ...... CONFUSED?????? yeah we are too!!!
    but we're still going to the apple store to see what they can tell us!!!

  • TS3899 I have trouble keeping emails on inbox after upgraded to ios 7.

    I have trouble keeping emails on my iphone 4 inbox after upgraded to ios 7.
    It kept disappearing every week. Even though "Flagged" shows 7 mails, I can only view 2 of them, and cannot view rest of the 5 emails.
    It had never happened on ios 6.
    My setting is the POP for incoming/SMTP for outgoing.
    Tried to fix the problem, I deleted my e-mail account(Shaw), and recreated with Exchange server, but it didn't work.
    So I recreated my e-mail account with POP/SMTP again.
    And set on"Never" delete from server.
    It's very frustrating and please give me some solutions!

  • Having trouble downloading contacts to phonebook on sync system in my car since upgrading to IOS 6.0

    Since upgrading to IOS 6.0 I'm having problem downloading my contacts from my iphone to the phonebook on my Ford Sync system. I can make and receive calls but the phonebook is empty even though the system tells me it has downloaded phonebook.

    A new Outlook Identity will most likely solve your issues. If you have any data under "On My Computer" folders, see this link:
    How to move your data to a new Identity
    BTW, how much free space on your drive? Use Disk Utility in Applications/Utilities to find this info. You need a minimum of 10% free but 15-20% is recommended.
    Outlook gets very sluggish when you are low on disk space. If you have a bunch of older Identities from previous rebuilds you can delete these to help free up space.

    * We try to connect, but after 5 mn fail.
    * sound drops or get scrambled
    * lag in conversation. 4 second delay while talking
    I switched to Skype wich have a worse image quality but I connect
    8-(   not happy about IOS 8

    Hi Glenn,
    Follow the below instructions to address the wifi issues that you are seeing :-
    Navigate to Privacy - Location Services - System Services ( at the bottom ) - WiFi Networking.
    By default Wi-Fi Networking will be on .. turn it off.
    It worked for me, hope it will work for you too :-).

  • TS1398 After upgrade to iOS 6 i am not able to use wifi.

    Connected, but no wifi traffic (at home).
    After upgrade to iOS 6 i am not able to use wifi. I am connected to my home wifi but no trafic is coming through (safari, skype, twitter, app store). I have even tried recovery of my iPhone 4S using iTunes as well as using iPhone. But without effect.
    Can not connect at all (at work).
    Thank you for helpfull advice.
    Vladimir
    Please do not give me advice like:
    switch proxy to auto
    turn the flight mode on and off
    turn the iphone on and off
    release the ip
    recovery the network settings
    recovery firmware
    I have tried all these, but did not work.
    PS to apple:
    I really did not expect this kind of trouble. If I would want to waste my time "repairing my device", I would buy an android phone!!!!!!

    This helped me solve the problem:
    I have changed the security from TKIP to AES and now my wifi works fine /sofar/.

  • Since upgrading to iOs 5.1.1 and iTunes 10.6.1.7 my phone gets a sync failure message whenever I since thru the cable. I have no problem syncing with my iPad

    Since I upgraded to iOs 5.1.1 and iTunes 10.6.1.7 my phone will no longer sync with outlook or iCloud. I have no trouble with my iPad. I get a message "iPhone could not be synced because the sync session failed to start. Any suggestions?

    Is your iPad recognized by iTunes when connected to your computer via USB?
    If so, does Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi remain selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes?

  • I upgraded to iOS 8.1.3, and now I can't get mail on my iPhone 5s

    I have an iPhone 5s, and yesterday I upgraded to iOS 8.1.3.
    I didn't notice any trouble with my mail app yesterday, but I didn't try to use it much either. Today, after my phone charged overnight, my mail app keeps shutting down on me. When I open the app, sometimes it will display some mail, but other times it shows "No Mail". It will load my messages, but then when I try to read them, the screen goes black and the app closes. And then, we have to go through the whole process all over again. It doesn't matter if I have just opened the app (and had it close itself) or not: sometimes the messages that it just loaded are not there and have to be reloaded.
    Sometimes I can read a message or two before it closes, and other times the app closes right away. I have tried the same messages multiple times, and it does not seem that the message is the trigger. I can't determine any pattern to when the app closes.
    Any thoughts on a fix for this?

    Hello bookwyrm42,
    It sounds like your Mail app is just closing on you when you try and read your email no matter what you do. I would start by quitting the Mail app outright:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

  • I have an iphone 4 that I recently upgraded to IOS 7, and now I cant drag music to it.  It says "preparing to update" eternally.  Weird thing is... I have an iphone 3s that is IOS 6, and it takes new music all day.  arg.

    I have an iphone 4 that I recently upgraded to IOS 7, and now I cant drag music to it.  It says "preparing to update" eternally.  Weird thing is... I have an iphone 3s that is IOS 6, and it takes new music all day.  arg.
    I have tried direct connecting the iphone 4, via wifi, everything.  I hate itunes with a passion, but it seems to be a necessary evil.  I dont know why I would have no trouble with my iphone 3.  I am using the same technique for both phones.  Find the music I want in the library and drag it to the iphone.  Works on IOS 6, not IOS 7.
    WHat else should I try?

    Hi jeffmbellucci,
    If you are having issues dragging music to your iPhone 4 after a recent upgrade to iOS 7, you may want to verify that the phone is still set to "Manually manage music and videos." You may find the following article helpful:
