Cannot download iOS5 firmware, saying software corrputed at 100% download

upon finishing download, itunes says "the software for the iPhone(iPhone) was corrupted during download, the software for the iPhone was corrupted during download"
same for my ipad.
and this happened like 6 times since i always try to re-download the firmware.
some one help?
btw, i just uninstalled and reinstalled all the apple product on my win7 yesterday, so it shouldnt be the itunes's problem. And I dont really have a firewall blocking the download.

im having the same problem. i talked to a friend of mine who is basically a genuis and he said it probably is Apple's server...that so many people are updating and its causing this. i havent found a true answer yet, i tried to call apple support, but that was hopeless. i thought maybe restoring my phone or something, but i dont want to do that and then realize that if i waited til tomorrow or so that i didnt have to. but im stuck just like you guys!

    Assuming you've done a system wide search for it including the Applications folder and it's not there......
    I think you will need to address this with them - did you pay them for the application? Or was your purchase price to include it? And the question(s) to ask them:
    If the app store states that it has been downloaded, ask them where it is and which Apple ID they used. (the store keeps track of Apple IDs and machine IDs on everything you download).
    I have absolutely no faith in their advice; however, in this case, it's not so much technical advice, but an answer to your questions: you paid for something and it appears not to be there.

    Cancel your storage upgrade
    If you upgrade or renew your storage but no longer need it, you can cancel. If you cancel your storage plan within 15 days of an upgrade or within 45 days after a yearly payment, you can contact Apple for a full refund. After this period, you can downgrade your storage for the following year.

    Since I purchased about $70 worth of movies and books and they won't load onto my iPad, do you think iTunes will refund my money?
    If you make more room on your Device perhaps you can View/ use the purchases...

  • New iPad . Cannot load ios5.0 says network connection timed out.trying to sync with a pc

    Just got a new IPad2. First time Apple user.  Need to upgrade to ios5 but get an error message saying network timed out.  Tried removing firewalls on my pc and disconnecting my anti virus.  Did not help.  Any suggestions?

    Download iOS 5.0.1! apple servers will not allow you to install iOS 5 as there is already a later version available.
    If your itunes is acting up, download the iOS from another site then hold shift button and click RESTORE button in iTunes and select the iOS 5.0.1 ipsw file you just downloaded and voila!!

  • Ios 5 won't install.  Error message says software was corrupted during download.

    I've tried multiple times.  I've disconnected and reconnected.  I've restarted.  I've turned off the firewalls.  Nothing works.

    Thanks!
    (3) And I do not believe I have Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 installed on this computer, as I just tried to install it and I received this error message: http://i45.tinypic.com/a3m7bc.png
    Okay ... that rules out one possible treatment. Sometimes people with the redistributable installed can get past this by applying a security update for it ... but it looks like the same sorts of problems are preventing it from installing.
    (2) And last time I checked my History I had several failures I believe, however now I only see one failed update, that being Update for Windows (KB944036). The error code listed 8000FFFF. Apparently it's an update for Internet Explorer 8.
    The other primary strategy we (I?) have for dealing with these is to attempt to treat any underlying issues on the PC that prevent Windows Updates from installing. Although I have a sneaking suspicion that your 8000FFFF is related to your IE being uninstalled, I think we'd probably better try following up on the following document:
    [Error when you download updates using Windows Update or Microsoft Update: 8000FFFF|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946414]
    After applying those measures, do your Windows update and/or iTunes installation failures clear up?

  • Can't download updates from either Software Update or Apple Downloads

    The update (whether of iTunes 8.2, Security Update 2009-002, or QuickTime) appears to be downloading completely but then I get a red exclamation mark, an "unspecified error" message, and a failure to install. I've run Disk Repair from Install disk, which says disk is fine, and have run extended Hardware Test from Install disk, which says computer is fine. Does anyone else have this problem? Please help! Thanks. -Elroc

    *" When I went into Preferences, though, I noticed nearly twenty empty folders with nonsense names like v0ê)∂øˇ‘–†(A. Could that reflect a problem somewhere?"*
    Yes it could. Delete any files like that. They could be old preference files from software you don't use anymore. Delete them and restart your Mac.
    Don't see the Genius Bar just yet.
    Check the hard disk for errors. I know you said you did this but make sure just in case.
    Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    If the hard disk appears to be ok... see if you can download and install the 10.4.11 combo update which contains fixes for 10.5.1 up to 10.4.11 available here.
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eintel.html
    If that doesn't work, if it were me, I'd back up my important data and try and Archive and Install.
    Instructions here. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710 This does NOT erase the hard disk but restores your system software.

  • My iBook app won't let me download books, it says that they are already downloaded but to also go to purchases, could someone help please?

    I have recently got an iPad two and I love it, one problem however is that when I try to download books they don't appear on the bookshelf. When I go to purchases to download them, a message pops up that says I have already purchased this item, please go to purchases and select Download! If anyone could help that would be amazing! Many thanks!

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Are you doing this?
    You have to sign in and download each iTunes account individually.

  • How can I download iOS5  for my iPAD2?

    I can´t download ios5, it says, open itunes and follow instructions???

    You need to connect your iPad to your computer and update the software in iTunes.  Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and your iPad should be recognized when connected and it should let you know there is a newer version of iOS available for download.  Going to iOS 5.0.1 is a lengthy process.  Make sure you have turned off any Firewall/Anti-Virus software before starting the process.

  • My iPad won't download any music.it says download error. I have 100 downloads stuck on my downloads at the bottom of the page on itunes

    My iPad won't download any music. It says download error try again. I have 100 downloads stuck on my downloads in iTunes store.

    Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
    If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected.

    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
    to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
    updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
    Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version)
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back. For detailed instructions, see

  • I cannot get the updates for ipad to download. when it gets ready to process the file an error message pops up saying the software was unable to download and the network timed out. any suggestions...

    i am trying to update the software on my ipad from 4.2 to 4.3.3 but i cannot get it to download. I get an error message that says the software was unable to download because the network timed out.  I have tried to download it 7 or 8 different times and still get the same message.  I cannot restore the factory settings either.  The same thing happens.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  It did this when trying to update to 4.2.  I don't remember how we were able to get the software to update.  Thanks.

    Thank you King_Penguin!  It worked beautifully.  I had turned the firewalls off but not the antivirus.  You are great!  I am new to this apple community thing so it looks like I cannot mark your reply as "correct answers", but it was.  Thanks a ton!
