What will the new carrier update (version 5.1) do to my iphone 4s? is it safe? will it delete any of my data?

I am a new to the iphone world don't really understand the new carrier update and any insight would be highly appreciated

What new carrier update?
Carrier updates are provided by your service provider.
Are you talking about the ios update that Apple provides?
If so, then:
iOS 5.1 Software Update
It should delete nothing, but you should always have everything on your comptuer and backed up just in case.
Why would it not be safe?

  • When will the new software update be avaailble for...

    I have a 5800XM and i have updated its software to v 51.0.006. but now there is a new update v 52.0.... but my device as well as the nokia software updater says there is no new update available..?..when will it be availble for me..
    Im from Sri Lanka (in asia)  and my service provider is Mobitel .

    If your phone is branded or locked to Mobitel or another serviceprovider, it might be that they haven't approved the update yet, as they are entitled to. It might also be that Nokia hasn't yet released the update for that region for all I know.
    There are also special edtitions released wich may never get any update. Eg. Ramadan version.
    In any case, it's a matter of waiting. And it seems that it's totally random if Nokia announces updates, though they have done with some of the bigger updates (n97 v20) or the big update comming for the N8.

  • When will the new itunes update come out?

    when does the itunes update come out? because so many people are having problems with it and the fixes only work for a few people so it would be nice to know when a new update will come out

    Apple is the only one that decides that.

  • Iphone 5 new carrier update problem or glitch?

    A few hours ago I decided to reset my phones data and settings. I haven't done this since I got it last year and it was acting a little slower than usual and I thought it would help the perfomance of the phone, I had downloaded a lot of apps. Anyhow I went into itunes to backup my data to icould and my computer. An update popped up saying there was a new update for the carrier. I went ahead and said okay and continued to sync my phone to itunes. Once I had reset my phone and continued to restart I went through a few setting as far as launguage, wifi setting ect ect when a Sim Card Inavalid warning popped up. It reads:
    "The SIM card that you currently have installed in this Iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware isue with the iphone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information."
    I can't get into my phone at all now all I can do is make an emergency call, start over or go back to wifi settings. I tried calling AT&T and they weren't much help. All I was told was that I could order a new SIM card. Both my parents updated their phones with the new carrier update and everything went fine. Maybe its because I went and decided to do a factory reset on my phone? Anyway I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem at all and what can I do about it? I cant go into AT&T or Apple until tomorrow seeing as it is two late but my phone is not working at all now and it makes me quite sad =(

    Personally I would take it to the Apple Store cause the iPhone is still under warranty. You should try your carrier first if your not near an Apple Store and then go from there based on what help or lack of help they provide.
    Best of luck.

  • I have forgotten my password to my Ipod. Everytime I try to restore it, back it up or update it to the new 6.1 version of Itunes, it won't let me. What do I do?

  • HT5568 Will the new update uninstall any Java applications I am currently running?

    Will the new update uninstall any Java applications I am currently running?

    Safari?  Removing your existing Java applications?  No.  That won't happen.
    What will happen is the Java run-time and the Java plug-ins that were part of Safari.  You will be using the Oracle web site, and you'll be downloading and configuring and operating and managing the Java environment and the Java plug-ins for Safari and other browsers more directly, and usually with downloads from Oracle.
    Apple deprecated Java a while back, and they're now finishing the work and the transition of support over to the folks at Oracle, and of securing OS X from attacks against stale versions of Java.

  • Have iTunes version 10 .3 but do not understand cloud in iTunes 11.03 can someone explain it and also how do you find duplicates in new version and will the new version sync with my iPod Classic which I have had for 4 years

    I have iTunes version 10.03 which I love but my iPad Apple mini has iOS 7 but I don't understand the new iTunes what is the cloud shown next to the music and how can I find duplicates can anyone help me navigate the new iTunes and will the new version sync with my iPod Classic which is 4 years old

    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
    View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views
    The cloud icons give you access to stream or download any qualifying past purchases that you don't currently have downloaded to the library.
    Regarding duplicates, things haven't really changed. Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
    Yes, iTunes 11 will support your iPod classic.

  • How do I manually transfer music with the new itunes update for Windows?  I don't want to sync my library and lose all of my music for what I have in my current library.

    How do I manually transfer music with the new itunes update for Windows?  I don't want to sync my library and lose all of my music for what I have in my current library.

    The same way it was done in every previous version.
    Connect the device to the computer.
    Right click on the device in iTunes and select Transfer Purchases.
    Why would you lose any content by syncing with iTunes?
    Is this not the computer that the device is normally synced with?

  • I installed the new 5.0 version and it keeps telling me I have to resart my computer. But it wont finish the install after it resarts. What is wrong and how do I fix it?

    I installed the new 5.0 version of Firefox and the thing keeps telling me i have to resart my system to finish the install of an old version. I resart and it doesnt do anything. What is wrong and how do I fix this. I have been using firfox for more than a year now and have never had trouble till this issue came up

    If the toolbar installed something into the rest of the system, you will see an entry in the Control Panel in the software uninstall applet which should be removed. You might need to make a new profile if you cannot find an extension that has something to do with the toolbar.

  • HT5534 I down loaded the new  iwork update. Now when I create a document in pages save it and try to open it later some times the message comes that You need a later version of pages. Some times I don't have that problem.

    I down loaded the new  iwork update. Now when I create a docume

    I hate the new 5.0, and am having the same issue. Because I created or opened and saved several documents in the new 5.0 before I realized how bad it is, I had to figure out how to make them usable again.
    I have both versions of Pages (5.0 and 4.3) in my Dock for now. If a document tells me that it can't be opned by 4.3, I opn 5.0, open the document, EXPORT it in 4.3 with the same name, and overwrite the old document. That usually (big dog willing and the creek don't rise!) gives me access to my work.
    Once I am sure I have no remaining 5.0 douments around, I'll take 5.0 out of the dock.
    It truly is a pain in the ***. Here's the comment I left for Apple –
    I am now attempting to uninstall Pages 5.0 so I can go back to using Pages 4.3. The designers of 5.0 took away (or hid) so many of the functions that I've come to know and trust that I am appalled.
    It is now a kindergarten version of the workhorse I knew and loved. IT EVEN LOOKS like a dumbed-down app now, with cartoon buttons that reflect its audience – people who don't need a sophisticated, customizable publishing tool, who just need simple  icons they can point at LIKE A FAST FOOD CASH REGISTER.
    I'll be using either 4.3 or Word for Mac from here on out.

  • What are the new features for the latest version ...

    what are the new features for the latest version of N6300? can you cite me the newest features?

    The latest update was just bug fixes and improved stability, no new features. That is nearly always the case with series 40 phones like the 6300.
    Nokia do not make the changelogs available publicly but often they do appear on unofficial sites. Searching google may provide you with more detailed info that cannot be posted here.

  • What is the new features of asha 311 version 7.36

    Can anybody tell me what is the new features in new software version 7.36 of asha 311 ????..........

    ^ I've only noticed updated apps. You get new mail, new chat, twitter with push notifications, updated notifications app, added some pre-installed games from gameloft and EA. That's it. UI or menu saw no changes. One change is the volume too loud note when earphones are plugged in.
    Sad thing is that the chipset won't allow you to downgrade. So update only if you're ready to get those updated apps

  • I am unable to open certain pages on sites. I have to switch over to IE because the new Firefox update is not accomodated on their websites! When will this be fixed... sites included Ameritrade, FAFSA, and others...

    Question
    I am unable to open certain pages on sites. I have to switch over to IE because the new Firefox update is not accomodated on their websites! When will this be fixed... sites included Ameritrade, FAFSA, and others...

    First and foremost, you should update to 3.6.17 because the version you're running at the moment is insecure and exposes your system to attack. Update via '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates'''.
    That may even fix the problem since several minor bugs were also fixed in later versions.
    Similarly, after updating, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update those which are necessary.
    If the problem persists, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
    I didn't experience a problem myself accessing any of those sites you mentioned. See screenshot.

  • Will the new version have capability to allow me to use Fingerprint for username and password entry?

    I need to HP SimplePass Identity protection. This use of fingerprint technology allows sign in to websites by swipe of fingerprint and supports multiple users. Firefox supported that technology at one time but dropped support. Will the new version support it again? I quit using Firefox when the support ended and will not use it again until that functionality is restored.

    HP Simplepass never stopped working for Firefox. I'm using it on Nightly 31.0a1 and it's working fine. If it does stop working, then it's HP's fault for not pushing an update to their extension.
