As I just mentioned, Apple rolled out their first software update to the Apple iPhone tonight. The update fixed several issues within Safari as well as Webcore and Webkit. I thought I’d quickly show you snapshots of the update process - just in case you’re a little hesitant in performing the update. To get the update, simply dock your iPhone to your PC or Mac and start up iTunes. Once docked, you’ll see something similar to this within iTunes.

iTunes will notify you that there is a new update available to the iPhone. If you’re ready for the update, press the “Update” button and iTunes will download the update to your computer. Once the update is downloaded, a setup wizard will start up. Here are snapshots of the wizard from within Windows (Vista):

For anyone curious, the first link points to iPhone related manuals.

Here’s the link to the PDF version of the updated user’s manual. One tidbit I didn’t know about (but I’m sure you probably did). The SIM card within the iPhone can be used in other GSM phones.

Once you agree to the update, the software will be automatically installed onto your iPhone.

Once the software is installed, the iPhone will restart and then the update is finished. That’s it!
