I will say though that once the update is at least downloaded (not installed,) it will give you no choice but to update it in full because that download's just sitting there eating three gb of space. I'm sure eventually there will be no choice but to update, but there's no way for it to happen accidentally or at the very least, without the terms and conditions being agreed to. Although... If you're running the latest iTunes and want to back up your phone, will it only allow you to update to iOS7? I'm running it because there's no reason not to, so I'm not sure how that would work... I know itunes recognizes that your software is out of date, but unsure if you can proceed with doing a backup without upgrading to the latest. Sadly though, regardless of how it happened or what the cause was, contacting disability services wil likely be an exercise in extreme futility, since once you've upgraded, you're running it whether you want to or not; from what Apple has told me anyway... *shrug* Nothing disability department can do one way or the other since it's not an accessibility or disability related issue.

A couple of weeks ago somebody also posted that iOS 7 installed on their phone automatically and I mean "installed" not just downloaded and there is just no way it would do so because you just have to double tap I Agree and then double tap it a second time.

That is strange because I have not heard of that happening to anyone. There were 2 people at our meeting last night who had not upgraded and they didn't have that problem. Lots of luck!
