Restore error message: "There was a problem downloading the iPod software"
I am trying to restore my iPod and keep getting this message when I try: "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod "iPod". The requested resource was not found." HELP! What do I do next???
Windows XP
Hi BigIRv,
Actually, a "requested resource" error message (which I believe you are getting) most of the time has to do with iTunes having a problem with connecting to your iPod, rather than the iPod software update server (although a more rare possibility of this error message could occur in that sense).
See my post here, which contains a couple of things to try if you have that error message:

HI, i'm having this error message [There was a problem downloading the software for the iphone "banster's iphone". An unknown error occurred (-23)] when im doing the upgrading to IOS 5. anybody know how to slove it? Thanks
Yep, me to exactly the same problem, the error message keeps telling me to check my internet connection or try later. Nothing wrong with my internet connection. Is it an apple server problem?

I am trying to update to iOS5 on my iPad 2, but after the download completes, and file processing starts, I get an error message "There was a problem downloading the software ... the network connection timed out." Diagnostic tests check out OK. Any suggestions?
Temporarily disable your firewall and security software and see if that helps.

I am trying to update my iPod touch & keep getting this error message: There was a problem downloading the software for the iPod. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. Help!
Temporarily disable or turn off your Firewall and Anti-Virus software and try the download again.

I keep getting an error message saying my network connection has timed out when I try to download the iphone 5 software to my iphone 4 while it's connected to my laptop. Then it says make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. The download gets all the way to the end (takes about an hour mind you), and keeps timing out. It's error 3259. FYI, I have the latest version of iTunes.
Security software on your computer/router is the usual cause of this. Turn off/disable or uninstall all anti-virus software & firewalls. Try again.

Most of the times your security software is the cause for the network time out: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

Am trying to update to 5.0 from 4.2.1 and keep getting an error message "There was a problem downloading for iphone. The network timed out. What do I do ?
This is asked and answered many times each day. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
Disable your firewall/security software and try again. -
I have an old iPhone 3Gs with software version 4.3.5, I am trying to use it again, and it works fine, but I have not been able to update the software. Every time I try, I get the following message:
"there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone, the network connection could not be established". This happens even though I have a working internet connection.
Besides that, all the other functions work properly, even synchronize apps and library.
Will I be able to update the software?look around the forum tons of people repport that they can't update
makes you suspect that apples update servers can't meet the depand of too many users

Excel won't open and error message There was a problem sending the command to the programe
Hi there
I'd be grateful for your help.
I've just bought a new laptop and installed Office 2013. I used Excel 2013, did what I needed to do and saved it. This was 5 days ago.
Today, I've tried opening the file from my desktop and get the error message 'There was a problem sending the command to the program'.
And when I try to open Excel to do the DDE fix, which seems to be the best suggestion, I can't open Excel at all. I've tried to get into it from the Apps screen.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
ThanksDon't seem like this can be fixed so I went back to version 6.0.2 which works good.
I have Chrome now as my default browser and will not use fire fox until they fix it!
Chrome works great! -
I cant seem to be able to update to iOS 6.1 through my PC for my iPhone 5...The error reads: 'There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone 'Thomas Honiball'. You do not have permission to access the requested resource".... please help!!
Only developer's have access to iOS 6 now. Thus, if you are a developer you have have access to the developer's forum for iOS 6.
Otherwise you have a bootleg copy and are on yur own./ -

@sjpierce - I don't believe that this is a Firefox-specific issue, but it does sound like you have some sort of malware on your machine. What was this innocuous link that you clicked on? A lot of viruses and malware make their rounds on Facebook.
Regardless, what I would do is this ( I assume you're running Windows):
* Download the Free and awesome Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) via [http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/ http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/]
* Next update MSE and do a full system scan to ensure you don't have any existing malware on your machine. If so, clean it off and reboot. Keep doing this until you come up clean.
* Refer to this article on SUMO [[Profiles|Profiles]]
* Delete your old Firefox profile, create a new one and launch Firefox 4 again using the new profile
You should be back to normal at this point.
If you are running an OS like Mac OS X or Linux, it's unlikely that you have malware and you should probably clean your Firefox profile and start over again. -
Itunes podcast error message - "There was a problem downloading..."
Itunes cannot access any internet services - Podcast, store and radio don't work, but my internet connection is fine. I seem to remember disabling a network preference or a firewall config related to the itunes store (at the time I wasn't interested). Now I have a new Ipod and would like to listen to podcasts. Any idea how to help itunes connect to the internet?
Maybe it's permissions on some parent folders.
When you get a podcast, what itunes does is create a temporary folder named Podcasts in a folder named Downloads. When the DL finishes, itunes does some rearranging by putting podcast in the final Podcast folder and deleting the temporary Podcast folder.
So look at permissions on the Download folder - read/write isn't enough, you need create/delete for that temporary "Podcast" folder, too. Full control over the entire music folder & subfolders should fix it. -
Anyone??
Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and try again...
