Update iPhone without wifi

My wifi had been greyed out for a while and I need to update my Phone. Is there any possible way I could update my iPhone without Wifi?

Yes, you can connect it to iTunes on the computer you sync with and update it that way.
If you are updating the iOS, be sure to back it up first.
Cheers,

How to update software without wifi?

How to update with cellular 3G connection ?

You cannot upgrade to iOS 7 via a cell connection. The upgrade is far too large. If you can't use Wi-Fi, you'll need to upgrade via iTunes on your computer. See the section titled "Update your device using iTunes" in this support article:

If I buy a movie on iTunes will I be able to watch it on my iPhone without wifi?

I'm going on holiday to France next week, and would like to buy a movie (The Breakfast Club) to watch during the journey on my iPhone. Will I be able to watch it without wifi? Or do you have to have wifi to watch? I would have thought that as soon as it's downloaded you can watch it without wifi but I wanted to double check in case I bought the film them couldn't watch it. Thank you!

Once the movie has completey download, having an Internet connection is no longer necessary. It would be wise to test the movie before you leave, though, in case of glitches.

My mac is telling me i have no software updates available, but i do! i don't have the most recent ios software and i cannot update itunes or sync my recently updated iphone without it. help!

i am currently on the osx 5.8 operating system. I just downloaded the new iphone 5 software and cannot sync it with my itunes on this computer because it doesn't have the most current version of itunes which i discovered i cannot download without an iosx oeprating system. I have run software update 10 times, started and restarted the computer and the program. help! what do i need to do to switch over to the ios-x operating system....or whatever the most current version is called. if i have to pay for it, that's fine. i have just been routed and rerouted through the apple store trying to figure it out. can someone help me please!

Hello,
There are two different things here, an OS update and a software update.
Mac OS X 10.5 is the version of OS while the .8 at the end is the software update (release patches)
The most current software update for Mac OS X 10.5 is 10.5.8
No more software updates available. You would need to upgrade the OS, which would be to Mac OS X 10.6
Your new iPhone 5 would require iTunes 10.6 which is only available for OS X version 10.6.8 or later.
Your would therefore need to upgrade your Macbook to this version of OS.
It maybe brought on DVD via Apple directly (Contact Apple ) or using any good online vendor like Amazon.
Best of luck

Since updating iphone 5c wifi has been off, it's gray and I have tried everything. I can not finish the iOS 8 upgrade. Help

I have an iPhone 5c version 7.1.2. When trying to allow the upgrade for the "iOS 8.1.3 , everything appeared to be upgrading except for the wifi. my Wifi stays turned off now and will not come on. In my Setting applications , general it states I need to do the "iOS 8.1.3 upgrade but will not allow me to continue because I do not have Wifi. I have googled this issue and tried some of the options on there, I do apologize. I can not remember specific right now what the few were. I have MS and some cognitive issues. This is very frustrating at this point , I am also having the same issue with my iPad 2. Any help is appreciated

Want to conncet a mobile printer to IPHONE without WIFI

No, you can't do it that way. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356

Windows iTunes never finishes updating iPhone without bricking it...

So, I work at a mostly PC (Read: We only have two Macs - This kills me) job. The head of the company recently purchased an 8GB iPhone (2nd Gen), when the 3GS came out. Every time a new iPhone software revision comes out and he chooses 'update,' it grinds and whirrs until it gets to a point where on the screen it shows a progress bar and says 'installing software.' The iPhone shows a progress bar with the Apple Logo. They then sit there for, literally hours, as if displaying a screen shot.
The only solution, since I can't restore the iPhone on the PC (laptop running XP, btw) is to take it into the Mac room, have the latest iTunes install itself, restore the iPhone, THEN have it download the new iPhone software, RESTORE again and before it syncs, disconnect it and take it to the Boss' Laptop and have it restore from his backup. This works. But, it's an extremely shoddy way for someone to have to simply update their soft/hardware. This is also my first experience with syncing an iPhone via windows as I use nothing but Macs. The Manichean juxtaposition between the two processes is jarring.
Today, my IT (the only IT guy) guy tried to update HIS 16GB 3GS and EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM happened. And, he's currently reinstalling on the Mac so he can restore from backup on HIS laptop (XP). He says there's no ubiquitous software (other than Norton) on the machines and they both have admin rights... so, please help so we don't have to dance like this every time Apple releases a new update AND so we can maybe we can get new Macs in here (my logic is that if the iPhone keeps screwing up, they will then get a 'reverse-halo' effect - that would be terrible).

Upgrading the software has nothing to do with whether it's locked or not. Contact the cellular provider. They are the only ones who can help you with a locked phone issue.

How do you update apps without wifi

I have an iPad but no wifi at my house. I went to a friends and used their wifi to update some apps. But I had to leave and now I cannot use the apps because they have waiting.

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

How to update iphone without deleting itunes library

My old computer crashed- I started using a new MBPro but never copied over itunes- now I have 2 separate itunes libraries & want 2 update my phone but it says it will delete everything on my iphone/comp if I want 2 continue with the update- is there an alternative??
I really dont want to have any of my old or new music/movies deleted. Can anyone help- I am really not good with computers and feel like this should not be this difficult even for me- and yet it is!
Please help! Thanks

Sorry to hear about your macbook.
Others have reported that if you have at least on contact and calendar entry on your new computer when you sync, then it will not erase you iphone, it will simply merge the two. While that makes perfect sense, I have not tried it myself.
As for the texts, I don;t think you can get those back.
Music can only be synced to one library at a time, so the music will be gone. However, in Itunes you can "transfer purchases," at least putting your itunes purchased music on your computer.
It is always a good idea to have a backup. I use an external hard drive. Then you will have a complete backup if anything happens to your computer.
Good luck. I hope it works out.

Is there any way I can access pictures on my iphone without wifi

My phone was stolen and I really want the pictures I took from that night

If the phone was connect to wifi before it was stolen, the photos may have been added to your photo stream. If so, they can be accessed from a different iOS device or computer that is signed into your account with My Photo Stream enabled.

How to download a movie from iTunes to iPhone without wifi

How to download movies on iTunes without wifi

Short of moving to the U.S. (so you have a U.S. billing address) and getting a U.S. based credit card (billed to the aforementioned U.S. address), you can't. And is it really worth trading decent health care for a few movies?
