TS1424 Downloading software update unsuccessfully on iphone 4 for over a year. Error 9006 appeared this time!!

I have been trying to update the software on my iphone 4 forever. Today at least I got an error message (9006). Any ideas?

I took it to the Apple Store and they actually made it worse. It is stuck in an endless cycle of switching to the settings screen then to the home screen saying it needs activation. Luckily I took it to ATT and they are replacing with an iPad Air 2 since I've never used my mobile insurance protection, woo hoo

After having my iphone 4 for over a year, the front screen cracks :(

So after having my Iphone 4 for over a year and purchasing the apple CARE protection plan, apple is acting as if they do not care about me and my phone. I have never traded in my phone and never had a problem with it until now. My screen is cracked and when i tried to go to the store to get it fixed, all they tell me is sorry you have to get a new phone for $199. My husband and iI are a huge apple fans. We have a mac book, mac mini, ipad 1 and 2 and 2 iphone4s. We are very loyal to Apple, but after this experience, I don't see how i can continue to be. I purchased the apple care plan and thought i would be able to use it since i never had a problem with my phone but they proved me wrong. I didn't want to have to purchase a whole new phone with the iphone 5 coming out because i plan to purchase that in the first shipment. I'm so disapointed and heart broken. I don't know what to do. I wanna cry right now. When it rains it pours. Just disapointed that this had to happen with APPLE!!!! and now i'm reading some of these responces and learning that some people have gotten their phones changed for FREE?!?!?!?!?!? What's up with that? I feel apple should give everyone one OOPS clause. and after that then you have to fend for yourself especially if we have to pay for a protection plan that we will not use or will not transfer to another phone.
So disapointed

Apple Care is an extended warranty, NOT an insurance plan. Ford isn't going to fix your car for free when it gets wrapped around a tree.
With the advent of the iPhone 4S and AppleCare+, the geniuses at the Apple Stores lost the freedom to replace damaged phones at their discretion.
There is no "oops" clause in the warranty. If you've paid for Apple Care, that coverage will transfer to a replacement phone, provided you pay Apple for the out of warranty replacement.

Why are messages in my outbox and not being sent on my iphone 5. I have had the 5 for over a year and never had this problem before.

HT1620 I have a software update in my iPhone r for iOS 7.1.1 but it asks me for a 4 digit pass code I don't have one does anyone knows what that is?

I have a software update on my iPhone but it asks me for a 4 number pass code does anyone know what this code is as never been asked before and don't have one

Hopefully, you use a passcode to unlock your lock screen. It is that passcode that is required to update IOS. See Settings > Passcode.

I have had an iphone 4s for over a year and have had no problems sending emails in hotmail but now I cannot send them. What do I need to do!

I am having problems sending emails in Hotmail on my 4s. It has worked fine for a year but now I can't send them.

It will be your SMTP settings see this doc to troubleshoot

often adding the password and user name for the carrier helps ,despite it saying not needed !

I bought my iPhone5 on Wed, now on Sunday it no longer works (black screen, can't see any indication it is recharging). I had a iPhone 4 for over a year, so I know how to turn it on and it worked yesterday. Could it have been deactivated?

The question is in the title...what do I do now?

Try resetting it: push both the power/lock button and the home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears

I downloaded a software update on my iPhone. Now it's asking me to connect to iTunes, but I don't have my computer with iTunes to connect to and won't be able to for a few days. What can I do to use my phone now?

Hi,
Thank you for your reply, I did go to my general settings, but for some odd reason I don't have a restrictions setting, or a reset setting. I thought I could reset all the setting to see if it could be that, but as I said there aren't any.
My husband also has the iPad 2, and also did the software update and hasn't had any problems at all. I took both iPad's and compared the settings thinking maybe there could be a setting that could have been changed when the update was done.

HT1222 how do I download and install the software update on my iphone?

Hello,
I would like to know how do I download and install the software update on my iphone?

wireless upgrade is possible with iOS 5 or later I think

When i did a software update of my iPhone, my contacts were changed to .olk14 Contact file type. So I can't open them in any program, help!

When i did a software update of my iPhone, my contacts were lost. In my notebook they changed to .olk14 Contact file type, so I can't get tem in any program (outlook and others). Please helpme!

try downloading another free app that you've never purchased.. Seems like a weird idea, but sometimes this actually does the trick.

HT4623 haven't got software update on my iphone to update

haven't got software update on my iphone to update to latest version

On your phone go to Settings > General > Software Update.
Your device will check to see whether there's an update. If there is, it will report what it is and what it adds. Tap the Download and Install button at the bottom of the screen to begin installing the iPhone software update.
Make sure you are connected to WiFi before you do this.

How do i remove a downloaded iOS8 update from my iphone 4s

how do i remove a downloaded iOS8 update from my iphone 4s

I Have discovered that if you want to delete the update and have not installed it yet then you can do it. Just go into settings then go to general and under storage wait for it to populate with all the apps. The software update will be there. Select it and delete. Thats it

"The iphone software update server could not be contacted. An unknown error occured (-23)"

FYI,
Iphone 4 - iOS 4.3.3 (I would like to update to iOS 5)
Currently in DFU Mode, connected to my Lenovo (Windows OS) laptop.
Now the itunes asked for:
- Remind me later
- Download and update
- Download only.
I try to download and update, after i back up my iphone; when i click update, It's warning from ITUNES
"The iphone software update server could not be contacted. An unknown error occured (-23)"
Anyone can help me regarding this problem?

error 23 indicates a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The mac address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. out of date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.
