Update to iOS 7 Right Now – How to

With iOS 7 release yesterday, everyone of us wants to update to the latest iOS. The official
release date doesn’t come any sooner than the September 18th, but you
can update your Apple device to the latest iOS final version following
these steps. We hope there won’t be any issues but do take a backup of
your device in case something goes wrong. Also, since iOS 7 requires a later version of iTunes so you might not be able to use it after the update – install the beta if that happens.

How to update to iOS 7:

Required files: select the required download file from the links shared below – remember this is not an official posting so files might become unavailable.

Open the disk image (.dmg file) and find the iPhone Software Update file (.ipsw) for your Apple device.
Drag the ipsw to the desktop, or any other folder of your choosing. For those on Windows, use a tool like 7-Zip to do this.
Next open iTunes and connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer.
In case your device doesn’t get automatically selected in iTunes, select it and go to the Summary tab.
In OS X, hold down the option key; use the shift key in Windows and click the Restore button. Locate the .ipsw file that you downloaded and select it. Wait for the update to be finished.
If you want, restore your Apple device from backup and sync with iTunes.
