Cannot download updated software for I Phone 3GS

When I try to download iOS5 software update to my I Phone 3GS l get a network timed out message . Does anyone have an idea why this happens?

Disable the antivirus and firewall software on your PC. If you are running kaspersky, you may have to remove it entirely. It can interfere with the update process.

No. The post you responded to is nearly 7 months old. At the time, 4.3.3 was the most current version for the 3GS. As of now, 5.0.1 is the most current version for the 3GS.

The desktop software is the desktop software...it does not care the device model you have. Download it from the same location:http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.htmlGood luck!

Cannot Download Desktop Software for PC - 404 Error!

Hi All - I have tried to use the Feedback option for the Web Admin but my emails keep bouncing because the RIM system seems to think my feedback does not fit via email. So, here is the message I was trying to send in to RIM to help get to the bottom of this. Anyone feel free to pipe up and let me know what is going on or offer some suggestions... I'm totally open to anyone's help at this point. Thanks!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Interesting...well, I am downloading it right now with no 404, which would I think rule out a problem at the RIM webisite end. So, the only thing I can think of is that there is something in your internet routing that is somehow blocking it. Maybe you should start over from this point:
http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:bboftwareesktopSoftware&lpos=us:bboftware
I was also going to comment that RIM does not yet support Desktop Software 7.x, but that seems to have changed sometime today!
Good luck!

Just downloaded new info for I phone 3gs. I need to download my information from desktop to phone. how do I get started?

I am trying to retrive my addrress book from disktop to iphone. just updated info from website and msg comes up. Itunes is not my default player and do I want to correct it. when I get into the place, all the itunes are already checked.

10.5.8 is Leopard, not Snow Leopard. Leopard ran on both PPC and Intel Macs, but Snow Leopard runs only on Intel Macs. iTunes 11 will run on Snow Leopard, though I'm not sure whether iOS7 requires a higher system (Apple seem to specify only itunes 11 and not an OSX system so you may be OK). However if your Mac is a PPC you cannot proceed; if it's an Intel one you can purchase Snow Leopard in the Online Store (search for Snow Leopard to find it quickly) - it's not expensive. It's not possible to roll your phone back to iOS6.

Update Software for 6280

Hi
Can anyone ou there help!!!! I have just got my phone back after having my yet again repaired. Reinstalled my last update only to get the same problem back again, being unable to send Multimedia messages.
I have traweled through the Nokia website to find update software for my phone and have been unable to find anything. I really do not want to take the phone back again.

Did you get the settings from your network?
this doensn't seem to be a phone related issue .

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

I have a hard time understanding why I can't contact support about THEIR problem. I plugged my iPhone into my pc. iTunes came up. It said there was an update available for the phone. I accepted that. Clicked on the "download only" because I didn't have the time to install it at that point. It downloaded but didn't stop. It continued to the 'backing up your iPhone' segment then froze. I waited at least an hour with no change. Finally I unplugged my phone..iTunes wasn't responding.I rebooted my pc then tried the same thing again. Same outcome even though I let it "Back Up" for 7-8 hrs while I slept. Same Story............... iTunes 10.4.0.80 is the software I'm using. When my phone is 'plugged' in what I see on it's face is "Sync in Progress".....for hours!

For error -50: See error 13 and 14:
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:

IOS 5 on 3Gs iPhone,There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone

I have attemepted to update my iPhone 3Gs 8-10 times now over the past three days and keep getting the following error message:
There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone " My iPhone". The network connection timed out.
Make sure your network settings asre correct and your netowrk connections are active, or try again later.
This is after i wait 45-60min for iOS 5 to download each time.

Hi,
I am having the same problem as eimaj311 - and I dont have Kaspersky. I would like to believe that the error is not even related to network speed. I understand there would be a high demand on the servers - but this would have been anticipated and addressed - if so why the error message. I think downloading 700Mb would have been easier if iTunes can save whatever was downloaded and resume from that point in the event an error occurs.
In the mean time I am doomed - looks like the timeout error messages are there to stay.

Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

Why can't I update my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1? Every time I try it gets all the way done downloading it; however when it's processing the file the page tells me "There is a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. Network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. or try again later." and next to the file it has err = -3259. I have tried this 17 times and it won't work. My iTunes is completely up to date. I have made sure that my connection is fine and I have tried turning my firewall off with no avail. This has happened to me before but usually the update will go through after 2-3 tries, never to this extent. I don't know what to do. Help!

Error -3259 is a network timeout error, usually. This article might help:

Hi Robertfrom Denver.
Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?
