Trying to update iphone 4 from software 4.3.5 to 5.1.1, have tried this twice, but each time I receive an error message telling me that the phone can't be updated because the firmware file is not compatible. I called Apple Support who advised me to restore and update and said this would work. I tried this but after 45 mins that didn't work either, wouldn't even restore, I just got the same error message.

Apple really screwed me up! Did an update to iOS 8.1.2, got stuck in the white restart screen. Recovered the phone via DFU for like 6 times to get the phone start up correctly in factory settings only to find I am unable to restore my backup due to "corrupt backup or incompatible device"!
How can I recover my backup to my iPhone 6?? I really need the photos and messages...
what does 'firmware is not compatible' mean? What do I do to solve it?

I've recently purchased an iphone 5c and was told it was unlocked. Unfortunately this wasn't true. I've had the phone unlocked 2 days ago, and was told by the company who did it that it could take upto 14 days to actually unlock and download to the phone... they said that i will have to plug the phone into itunes, restore it, and when its done a "congratulations" will come up in itunes.Â
The problem i have is how do i know that the phone is unlocked when itunes and set up won't take me any further that "sim not compatible"
Trying to transfer all my data from the 4s to the 5s. Made a brand new backup from the 4s and it just says that its corrupt or not compatible when I try to restore the 5s. I have deleted all the old backups and made a new one each time.

Never jailbroken my phone, never wanted to. Just wanted to put some songs onto my iPhone 4 and it said some of the contents cannot be read and I needed to restore. So I clicked restore and it started to download the 5.1.1 update. Once this was done the error message:
"The iPhone iPhone' Could not be Restored Because Firmware is not Compatible" appeared.
So, I remembered I had been reminded on my phone that the 5.1.1 update was available through Settings on my phone, so I updated it that way. Successful update. I plug my phone back in and the contents still cannot be read, so I go to restore the phone again. Once again, "The iPhone iPhone' Could not be Restored Because Firmware is not Compatible."
