When updating to iOS 5.0.1. get the err -3259, thus unable to install new iOS. The message I receive goes: "THE NETWORK CONNECTION TIMED OUT.  MAKE SURE YOUR NETWORK SETTINGS ARE CORRECT AND YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION IS ACTIVE, OR TRY AGAIN LATER."
Does anyone know how to solve this tiresome problem, please!?? The update is downloaded upto 723.5MB, and is required upto 723,6MB, then the error message pops out! Tnx.

I have a quick wifi connection (Mac shows it as about 35 megabits) but I couldn't get the 5.0.1 OTA to work, I had to do it via cable to my computer's iTunes - and as I was already on iOS 5 it was only a small download, basically the same size as the OTA size.
As the original poster is talking about a 730 meg download then I assume that they are still on iOS 4.3.5 or below and can therefore only download via their computer's iTunes - you need to be on iOS 5+ before you get the OTA option.

  • Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later; Have been trying to fix for ages.

    Hi Everyone, been struggling all day to restore my settings on my ipod, as my little brother has put a restriction password in place and made me not able to get into Safari, iTunes, Camera which I really need. I have tried everything, resetting my proxy settings, turning off the firewall, changing my network location, ran diagnostics. Everything seems fine on that, I post below my results. I also tried restoring from the device, but with the restrictions code in place I can not do so. And everytime I am dowloading the software update before the restore it comes up with 'Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later'. I have been using google for ages and am not sure what I have missed.

    I am having similar issues except that the store starts to load, then stops, then I only get iTunes Store in gray letters on a white screen. I can access playlist and the other stuff. Like flamesgirl, I contacted them and they just keep sending me links of stuff to try which I had already seen on the Apple website and nothing works. I posted the question on another forum I belong to and one responder said her husband was in an Apple store and asked about this problem as he was having the same issue. They said an update would be coming out soon as they were aware of the problem. Who knows.

    Try rebooting your router and or cable modem. Unplug it/them for about 30 seconds and then plug back in. See if it works then.
    Reboot your iPad as well.
    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.

  • SSO- Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all....

    Hi All...
    I configured SSO Between EP6.0 and BW 3.5...By following this tutorial:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/84/30984076b84063e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
    every thing is working fine...  when i trying to check the preview for an iveiw (it is invoking BEx in the BW
    System) it is again asking BW System username & Password. I already done user mapping between the
    portal user with the BW user.
    After i reviewd my entire work i got one problem at:
    System Administration --> System configuration --> Portal content --> opened my created system object ->
    Selected Connection Tests --> Select Connection test for Connectors --> Click on Test Button --> Here i
    got the following error :  Retrieval of default alias successful
                                       Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all connection parameters are correct.
    I checked the usermapping area and connector Parameters those all are correct according to the document.
    I was stuck at this place from 4 days please advice me what are the causes for this error
    Best Regards
    Abhi...

    Have you tested the SSO setting by running the program "RSPOR_SETUP"?
    Yes Rajesh I tested by running the program RSPOR_SETUP in BW System.
    It is saying connection is success to communicate with RFC Server.
    The problem is comming from the portal side when i test connector properties for System object.
    But it is saying WEB AS Connection properties are success for System object.
    The exact Error Message is :
    Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all connection properties are correct.

  • IPod Touch 4gen disabled "The iPod Software update server could not be contacted" Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active or try again later.  Please help!

    My daughter forgot her passcode.  Her iPod Touch 4gen is disabled.  I've tried everything I've read online.  I get to the "Restore" part on iTunes and then I get the message, "The iPod Software update server could not be contacted.  Make sure your network connections are correct and your network connection is active or try again later."  How can this be so hard to do?  Why isn't there a simpler solution.  I live 2 hours from the nearest Apple store.  Any advice you may offer would be very much appreciated.

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
