I've recently started doing encrypted backups with iTunes before updating my 
iPhone.


Thanks,

 Would you recommend this process before or after downloading IOS 7.1?
 Is there a chance the new download could fix the memory issue?
 
 Thanks.

Updating with iTunes [was "Re: Cleaning Up Memory on iPhone 5"]

2014-03-11 Thread Christopher Chaltain 
I'm using Windows 7 with NVDA. I just plug in my iPhone, launch iTunes 
and then tab over to the message that says there's a new update for my 
phone and I tap the space bar on the download and update option. I then 
sit back and wait. Occasionally I'll tab around a bit just to hear the 
updates scroll by. Note, you may need to select the iPhone button to get 
the status of the software on your iPhone.
