I pressed “not now” on the carrier update on the iPhone and now the the update is not available. I am not able to receive or send messages.

I got the notification for the carrier update but pressed “not now”. Now my data isn’t working but when I go to settings-general-about, there is no option for an update even though I know there is one as I pressed “not now” earlier today.

Hi LD_04,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!


We are happy to help with the issue you are having with not being able update your carrier settings after pressing "not now". If you dismiss the installation notification, you can manually update carrier settings by following the steps outlined in Manually update your carrier settings on your iPhone or iPad. If you did follow these exact steps, trying restarting your device and trying the steps again.


Hope that helps!
