Will Apple update iPhone 3GS to allow music uploads to other devices?

I have read that the iPhone 3GS can only receive music files from iTunes and is not capable of uploading that content to other devices.
Most computers or integrated car stereo HDD's can receive uploads from other devices that use flash drives or USB cables, so why did Apple not add this feature? Does anyone know if they ever will add that feature?
P.S. I'm not referring to transferring purchased music either, I am well aware of how to do that, I'm referring to transferring audio files from the iPhone 3GS to other devices via USB/Bluetooth/Apps or some equivalent...

No one on these user forums can say what Apple will do.

ITunes will not update iPhone 3GS to 4.3.5

I asked this question in the iPhone Hardware discussions but after reading around the support discussions it seems my iTunes is the trouble. I have an iPhone 3GS and when I hook it up to iTunes there is a message stating that there is a new update for the iOS from my current 4.1 to 4.3.5. When I click on the update button, a window pops up stating that iTunes version 9.1 is the latest version but there is nothing about the update to the iPhone. Any ideas?
Thanks

Oh how I love maccies sense of sarcasm.
No other phone wipes itself out upon update again and again.
This happen to me twice before (3 to 4 anf 4.1 to 4.3)
Yet it reamains to see
If Immortality unveil
        A third event to me,
So huge, so hopeless to conceive,
       As these that twice befell.
Apple control is all we know of heaven,
       And all we need of ****.

iPhone will not communicate with any other devices on Bluetooth. It can be used with A2DP enabled headphones, or can be used with other devices when personal hotspot is enabled.

Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on itunes, how do I move them back to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.

during a update of apple my iphone 3GS crashed an now the operating system wont load up..ive tried to reset the phone to the factory settings using itunes it took 4 hours and completed but my phone still wont come on..what can i do to fix the problem? please help #

In trying to include what information all that I could I should have specified I DON'T KNOW THAT IT WAS DEFINATELY JAILBROKEN when I took it to the apple store they told me there's no way for them to tell if it was jail broken or not. I'm only going by what ppl have told me COULD HAVE BEEN DONE TO THE PHONE. With that said the only thing I know for sure is that the apple tech at the Genius Bar told me that someone took control of my root menu in February & I've had no control of my phone since. I asked him how to regain control & how he knew his exact words were "oh that is out of our scope of capabilities here at this level & you would need an apple engineer to fix it". I said ok then how do I get an apple eng then? He laughed & said you can't!!!! To which I was furious I came home & called apple requesting to speak w/the fraud dept to file a report they said we don't have a fraud dept!! So after a 45 mn phone call again I left w/no answers.
@TJBUSMC1973-
I DON'T HAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO SPEND HIRING AN ATTORNEY & Although I appreciate your suggestion I fail to how an attorney would be able to facilitate in any way since there's no suspect. I cannot prove that it's him doing it so I certainly can't pursue legal action w/no proof & no money. :'((
Again I thank you for your advice but I don't think that will help.
I was looking more for a TECHNICAL way to avoid this happening w/a new phone should I buy one or trying to get them out of my phone now! Such as installing some kind of software protection?? Someway to clear out the entire phone (other than factory reset which was done 10 x's w/no success, etc. if this person got in then there HAS TO BE A WAY OF GETTING HIM OUT, right????

HT4972 in terms of performance: do you recommend to update iPhone 3gs to os5 or os6?

If you update your 3GS, iOS 6.0.1 will be installed on it...you don't have a choice, as that is the only iOS currently signed by Apple, that is available for your phone.

Iphone 3gs wont allow me to enter password

My iphone 3gs wont allow me to enter my password. the graphics on the phone seem to show the basic framework - ie boxes around the numbers etc.

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Will syncing my iphone 3GS more than one time daily wear out the battery?

Will syncing my iPhone 3GS more than one time daily with Outlook 2007 wear out the battery? An Apple Care advisor said I should only sync it one time per week, but I need to do it daily as I use the calendars and notes for work.

How do you update iphone 3gs to the latest software?

I really want to update the software of my 3gs (currently running ios 4.1). If anyone knows how to, plz reply asap.
Thanks

Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.6.
