Upgrade my 4s to ios 7

Hi, I am still using ios 6 on my 4S, should I upgrade to the newest ios?
Will it slow the phone down?
Will it use the battery faster?
Thank you

This seems to be a case-by-case thing. Some phones are slower, some use more battery, etc. My 4S was fine - I loved iOS 7 on it (I have a 5S now) My battery was fine, I was able to use it all day, and listen to music on it for 8 hours each night at work, and still have 30-40% left when I got home.

  • ITunes wont upgrade my iPhone 4 iOS software.

    Hi. I recently updated my itunes to ver 10.2.1
    I am now using a 16GB iPhone 4 but i used to have an iPhone 3GS.
    I didnt have any problems with my 3GS but for some reason I can't download the iOS 4.3 software using my iTunes for my iPhone 4.
    I tried using other iPhone's with my PC but it seems that the iTunes in my PC is the problem because the other phones can download the iOS 4.3 using other computers.
    I tried reinstalling iTunes but that didn't solve the problem.
    So what I did to upgrade my phone's iOS is I downloaded the iOS from a website and then i held the SHIFT key before clicking update in iTunes.
    Now my iPhone is running iOS 4.3 but I would feel a lot better if someone can tell me how I can get my iTunes to download the iOS directly from Apple.
    I did the network connectivity diagnostics test and this the result:

    Either you missed some antivirus/antispyware software you have forgotten, you have some other software monitoring disk/internet usage, or your ISP is interfering with your net usage.

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.

    it has worked fine no problems till i updated it i tried restoring itwith my old backup but it doesnt move the ios back so it just keeps on craching when i try to unlock it

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Can't upgrade ipod touch to ios 5 beta 2?

    Hi everyone! I recently tried to upgrade my firmware from ios 5 beta 1 to ios 5 beta 2 (I have a developer account, paid the $99 and everything).
    The upgrade to beta 1 from 4.3.3 was pretty much flawless. When I tried to upgrade to ios 5 beta 2, it seemed to work until the last step, at which point the ipod touch was off and could not be turned on. When connected to a computer, it said it was stuck in recovery mode. I couldn't switch my firmware in Organizer any more, not even back to beta 1.
    I restored down to 4.3.3 again cause I figured it would wipe the whole thing and let me upgrade back to beta 1 at least. That much worked, I have an ipod with 4.3.3 on it.
    Now when I try to upgrade back UP to beta 2 or even beta 1 again, I get this error: "Could not allocate buffer (file exists)" and the ipod goes back into recovery mode, and I must again restore down to 4.3.3.
    What file is this, how can I delete it, and how can I upgrade again to beta 2? This ought to be the last time I need to upgrade with a wired connection, since all updates from Beta 2 onwards are OTA as far as I know.
    I was quite fearful of "bricking", but a friend who is far more familiar with the inner workings of the ipod touch than I am has assured me that since the computer detected it in recovery mode, it wasn't a lost cause.
    I was originally attempting the install from a slightly older version of Xcode, which is probably the root cause of this problem and I am now kicking myself.
    Thanks for the help!

  • HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. MY question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this aren't working

    HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. My question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this, such as using turning off the SMS preview under the "passcode lock", well that option no longer exists, or if it does, I'm somehow missing it.
    When I go to the "messages" setting under settings on my phone, I still don't see an option of turning it off.
    If I can just get the name of the person sending the message, as I had it before, I'd be happy.
    Help!

    That option still exists in Settings > Notifications > Messages > Show Prview (OFF) and View in Lock Screen (ON). Here's how to configure your Notifications and Notification Center for iOS 5: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html

    Go to your home screen, and then press the volume down or up button. It should say Ringer instead of volume. If it doesn't do that, try going into the clock app and try it there.

  • I upgraded iPhone 6 to IOs 8.1.3 and I can no longer pair with my 2015 Toyota Highlander.  Upgraded to 8.2 and it still doesn't pair

    I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 8.1.3 and can no longer pair with either the phone in my 2015 Toyota Highlander or my Jawbone earpiece.  Upgraded to iOS 8.2 and still no resolution for the car, but now my Jawbone will finally pair with the iPhone.   Is this a known problem or do I need to get a different phone?

    Hi. You can reset the connecting system on your car to try or make sure if password's verifying is needed to connect.

  • I upgraded my iPad to iOS 7 and cannot restore missing apps.

    I upgraded my iPad 2 to the latest iOS 7 and lost several apps. Some of which I paid for, like Pages and Numbers. With that, I lost all the documents buried in iBooks, Pages, Numbers, etc.
    I tried to sync with my computer, but one thing Apple does not tell you is that you must have the latest iTunes 11 to sync iOS 7 devices. I do not. I tried to up date my iTunes and learned that the operating system on my desk top does not support iTunes 11. And my desk top does not support the latest operating system. My desk top is working great and no reason to replace.
    Next try was to re download the app from the App Store.  iBooks was a success, everything came back, no charge. I had to pay for Pages, it appears to be an upgraded version made for iOS 7, no documents were restored. I do not see the older version available.  I did not waste time and money on the rest of the missing apps.
    Any suggestions.

    Yes, I did back up my iPad to my computer before upgrading to iOS 7.  However, since upgrading to iOS 7, my iPad will no longer sync with my iMac.  You must have the latest iTunes 11 to sync iOS 7 devices. I do not. I tried to up date my iTunes and learned that the operating system on my desk top does not support iTunes 11. And my desk top does not support the latest operating system.
