Oh I'm really sorry.

When you select you iPhone in iTunes, click the check for update button.

Then it'll mostly prompt you to download the latest firmware.

*If the download is complete connect your device and update it

#If you already have the firmware, then that's much better.


If none of the above work clean restore your iPhone:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414


and then restore from backup.
