How To Update to iOS 5 Through iTunes
Step 1: Connect your device to iTunes using the USB cable.
Step 2: Once iTunes has detected your device, click on the device name in the left hand menu and click on the “Check for Update” in the device description box.
Step 3: Apple will show you a popup message as seen above if an update for your device is available. Click on the “Download and Update” button.
Step 4: Apple will download the iOS 5 update and install it on your device. It is important that you DO NOT disconnect the device from the computer during the process. It is also recommended to keep your computer plugged in to the power outlet during the process.
That’s it. The process might take around 10-30 minutes depending on how long it takes to download the update to your computer and install it. Once iOS 5 is installed, iTunes will sync your device and you can use it again.
Apple Store Volume Purchase Program
Phillips High School can purchase apps in volume from Apple then distribute the apps to multiple devices. The program also allows app developers to offer special pricing for purchases of 20 apps or more.
Compiled by K.C. Boyd, M.L.I.S.7
How the Program Works
1. Apps are purchased using the App Store Volume Purchase Program Portal
2. The codes are received and distributed to all end users (teachers)
3. End users will redeem codes and download apps.
