I see you have iPhone X as your device, which wont work, as mentioned all others on this thread. If this is not the case, then go by the following....


Updating an iPhone to iOS17:


Update Using a Computer:

What to Update: Installed apps and the iOS.

How to do so...


A. Verify Compatibility:

Identify your iPhone model. The first thing that comes to mind in incompatibility being the culprit. So, confirm the model of your iPhone. If iPhone model is incompatible with iOS 17then it is because you iPhone does not meet the hardware requirements for this iOS version(s).


B. If Compatible...


1. Back Up First:

IMPORTANT: If you have an option to update, however, then be certain you backup your iPhone first. That way, you will have something to restore your iPhone from should anything go wrong with the update


then...


2. Proceed with the Update:
