Updating my i tunes on my Mac , checke for updates but couldnt connect to i tunes server ? Internet working fine ? Any ideas

Just updating my Mac with latest itunes , but it says check your connection to internet as cannot connect with itunes server ? Any ideas

What modem and what kind of service do you have, ie cable??
Some modems are not playing nice with the TC.. the Motorola in particular.
What model TC do you have?
What firmware is it running??
Firmware matters in some cases. The problem is more on the later firmware.. so 7.6.3 or 4 mostly with Gen1-4.. or any firmware on a gen5.
Reset for the models is slightly different although all can be done like this.
Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Note..
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

    Reboot the device and see if the error happens again. Updating through iTunes is usually optimal, but the file size differs via Software Update on the device and iTunes (50MB vs ~800MB)

  • HT1338 when I click on software update it says ''An error occurred while checking for updates.'' Why does it say that?

    So I bought a Powerbook G4 from a pawn shop and yes, I did check to see if it was still good. everything works fine but I need an update because I have OS X 10.3. So I connect to the internet and then I click on ''Software Update'' and I wait. But then a message opens saying ''An error occurred while checking for updates'' And I don't know why. HELP!!!

    Something temporarily wrong with your internet connection?
    Be aware that this is a very large file to download, it needs a strong consistent internet connection.
    Have the iPhone on the charger cable too.
    In the meantime read the threads in this forum about the visibility item and some other possible issues on the 4 and 4S (although a large number of people have these issues, it is still a minor percentage, but anyhow, be aware).

  • Updating apps in iTunes 11.0.3 "check for updates" missing?

    Hi, I've just updated to 11.03 and when I look at the apps listing I know longer have a "check for updates" button. Does anyone know where its gone?
    Sorry found it now - new menu item.
    Duh.

    Open iTunes. Your music library should be front and center, with the "iTunes Store" button in the upper-right and the "Music" button in the upper-left. Click on that Music button in the upper-left, and select "Apps" from the drop-down menu. Now along the center of the top area should be six options, "All", "iPhone/iPod touch", "iPad", "iPod Games", "List" and "Updates". Click on Updates. From here you can either click the "Update All Apps" button that finally appears in the lower-right corner, or click on any app individually for the option to manually update just that app.
    The "Check For Available Downloads..." option you can select from the "Store" menubar item serves a different purpose entirely; while I've used it for downloading music I had already purchased but been unable to initially download, it does nothing for downloading new updates to apps already in my iTunes App library.

  • Checking for email but not connecting

    When I check for new emails it continuously checks but doesn't pull them up

    Did you try the Apple suggestions of turning off "Ask to join networks" and turn screen brightness down? This helped us with most of our WiFi issues. Interesting though, is that I have the opposite problem. My Internet access is fine, but I can't get email with the iPad email app. I took it to the Apple store and my email worked great, got back home and just "spinning" with no response.

  • HT4623 after updating to IOS 7 my phone is "freezing", I have to re start the phone to get it working again, any ideas

    after updating to IOS 7.0.4 my phone is "freezing", I have to re start the phone to get it working again, any ideas

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If the issue persists...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

    NO sound from speakers after update only headphone jack works, speakers work on FaceTime
    many thanks Mark

    Reboot the iPad and see if that helps.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • For those who run Windows 8 with bootcamp: Do you update windows 8, with windows update? I have the latest bootcamp drivers, and never checked for updates on windows. Do you normally update windows 8?

    Windows 8 has been running very well after installing it with bootcamp and its latest drivers.
    I just have never updated Windows 8 itself, (windows has never checked for updates), and just has been
    using it bare. Do you update windows 8 to the latest updates with windows 8, and have any problems
    with the updates? Just curious before I start updating it for once.

    You have to update Windows to the latest version with Windows Update and keep it updated, because this is a matter of security. Microsoft provides a lot of security updates and you have to install them even if you have got an antivirus. Then you can find other updates, and if you want to install Windows 8.1, just install all updates with Windows Update, and then go to the Windows Store and download Windows 8.1.
    Apple says that Windows 8.1 is not supported by Boot Camp, but people say it works without any problem with the most recent drivers, so I do not find any risk after upgrading to Windows 8.1.

    Hi ,
    First of all ,I would you suggest to check the status of the "Windows update "services " and "Background Intelligent Transfer service".Run "Services.msc" to open the services manager.
    Someone has tried the following methods to resolve the similar issue,please have a try :
    1.go into Windows Update and change the settings to "Never check for updates (not recommended)", click OK, and then change it back to "Install updates automatically".
    2.Turn on the Windows Defender and update it .

  • How to check for updates on SCM packages?

    Hey guys,
    I wondered for some time now how to check for updates on SCM packages, i.e. -git
    or -svn ones. Updates for binary packages are automatically updated by pacman,
    no problem there. Checking for updates on non-SCM packages from the AUR is
    easily done with one of the various helper tools available (personally, I use
    slurpy).
    However, SCM packages can change without their PKGBUILD changing, so I'm not
    notified that I should recompile and update them.
    Is there a "proper" way of doing this? Am I missing something?
    Thanks in advance!

    If your system is booting then u can say that your bootblks are installed.Usually BootBlks are present in 0 & 1 slice of UFS Filesystem
    /usr/platform/platform-name/lib/fs/ufs
    directory where ufs boot objects reside.
    An x86 FDISK partition for the Solaris software begins with a one-cylinder boot slice, which contains the partition boot program (pboot) in the first sector, the standard Solaris disk label and volume table of contents (VTOC) in the second and third sectors, and the bootblk program in the fourth and subsequent sectors. When the FDISK partition for the Solaris software is the active partition, the master boot program (mboot) reads the partition boot program in the first sector into memory and jumps to it. It in turn reads the bootblk program into memory and jumps to it. Regardless of the type of the active partition, if the drive contains multiple FDISK partitions, the user is given the opportunity to reboot another partition.
