  • HT4623 Can I update 3 iPhones with the latest software update that are all on thr same iTunes account?

    I kept all my iPhones after I upgrading to the latest one each time my 2 year contract was up so I have an iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 & iPhone 4S. I actually still use all 3 phones for different purposes. My iphone 3gs is not activated, but I still use it for apps among other things when connected to wifi. My iphone 4 & 4s are both activated with 2 saparete phone numbers, but I have all 3 devices on the same iTunes account. I never noticed this to be a problem until just recently when I was thinking about selling one of my iphones since I'm now due to upgrade again to the iPhone 5.  Well my problem is that when the latest iphone software update came available I noticed that all 3 iPhones had a notification letting me know that there was a new update available & I didn't want to update my iphone 4 & 4S until I had a recent back-up on my pc just incase anything went wrong like once before. Referring to the last time I updated my iphone 4s for some reason right in the middle of the update it lost connection. So I had to restore my entire phone from scratch & because I didn't check to make sure that had a recent back up right before I updated I ended up losing a lot of important information. So anyway since my iphone 3GS I knew had a recent back up & plus it doesn't have a lot of important information stored on it I chose to go ahead & update it first. Then later on when I went to update my other two iPhones I noticed the notification that was there before on all my phones to let me know the update was available was now gone & it would not give me the option to update either of my other two phones. I don't know if this is true or not, but I was later told that Apple will only let you download the free update software on only one device on each iTunes account & since I have all 3 devices on one itunes account I could only choose to update one. I didn't know this beforehand so I used the update on my 3GS which I barely use except to play with on wifi & now my other two iPhones which are the main ones I use are both activated now function very slow & constantly crash. Also if I was to choose to sale one of the iPhones without the latest software update on it does that mean that the new owner will not be able to get the latest update meaning the phone would be out of date without having that latest software installed? If anyone knows how to help me fix this or give some advice I would really appreciate!!

    That's utter non-sense.
    Just connect your 4 & 4S, iTunes running, & hit the "Check for Updates" button, or you can update directly on the phones(if running iOS 5.0 or higher): Settings>General>Software Update.
    iOS 6.1.3 is the current iOS version for both phones.

  • TS3694 I tried updating my iPhone with the latest update.  It downloads the update to my computer fine, but when it tries to update the phone, I keep getting a fault code of 3014.  I've tried it four times.

    Try taking it to the nearest Apple Store. They should have computers there that they can use to get your iPhone out of recovery mode. Make an appointment first.

    i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).

    It could be the fact that your hosts file is directing itself to gs.apple.com Cydia not gs.apple.com Apple,

  • I updated my iPhone with the new update..and afterwards it turned off and instead of turning back on it tells me to plug it into iTunes..then iTunes tells me my phone is in recovery mode and I need to restore it..is there anything I can do w/o restoring?

    Same thing happened here ~ tech guy at a local authorized Apple repair store said it had something to do with improper backup from which the restore would be made. Still have a phone that asks to be connected to Itunes but won't do anything else . . . frustrated.

    Well, you're timing is perfect then   Are you eligible for any upgrade pricing from your service provider?
    I skipped over the iPhone 4s, and I am eligible for full upgrade pricing in almost exactly one month from yesterday, so I will be moving to an iPhone 5 next month.

    Your only hope is to place your phone in to DFU mode and restore it using iTunes (if iTunes allows you to).
    Search in Google "Force iPhone in to DFU mode" and follow the instructions precisely.

    Hello JBH 1162
    Check out the articles below to get your iPhone to show up in iTunes so it can be restored. Start with the first one to see if you can make any change to show up in iTunes and if it does not, then pick either the second or third article for the type of computer that you have.
