Cant download software updates

When I run software update the update downloads but wont install,I get the message
NSURLErrorDomain-1005 networking error please check internet connection and try again.
I have evdo with a sprint broadband card and a phobeus router.

Welcome to Apple Discussions, vboost.
Hmmm... there was a bug report filed on this back in May '06. First I've seen of it though.
Try deleting ~(yourHome)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist also com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist, in the same folder.
then try again.

Cant Download Software Updates, Random app needs update

I have two problems with the Mac App Store. The first one is that there is an app called "CodeBox" that i have never downloaded or used that is available for an update on an account that I've never seen. The second is that I havnt been able to install software updates since I downloaded Mountain Lion. The notification for a software update pops up but the only update I can see is the CodeBox app.

Uninstall the CodeBox app using this free utility > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
re: the softwrae updates..
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy/paste:   ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the trash.
Same:   ~/Library/Preferences/
Click Go the move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
Same:   ~/Libray/Cookies
Click Go then move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to to the Trash.
Try the App Store.. see if that made a difference..

Cant download software updates past 10.6

For some reason I cannot update itunes or os x past 10.6 due to some sort of security update not bing located. Does anybody have a suggestion or how to fix this issue?

Try running this update: Your profile states 10.6.7, this will update to 10.6.8, you should then be able to download the iTunes, App store, etc...
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
This is a large update, reboot after installation.
Then run software update, one at a time till there are no more updates available

ITunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution?

iTunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution? And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

It would help to know versions here. I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed. Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago. If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses. Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

Can't download software updates in iTunes - error message "network connection timed out"

I'm unable to download software updates for my iTouch 4.1 in iTunes. I have iTunes version 10.5, Windows 7. i've tried numerous times in the past and always get the same error message. I'm now experiencing problems with some of my apps. and I've attempted 4 times in the past 2 days to upload version 5.0. It goes thru the whole download (761.61 MB), says "processing file", then closes out and I get the following message:
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPod "xxxxx's iPod". The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are current and your network connection is active or try again later. Err = .3529."
I ran diagnostics and it said everything was fine.
Also not all the apps. on my iTouch are in my iTunes library even though I've synced my iTouch numerous times since I've purchased the apps. with my iTouch. All the apps on my 2nd screen are on iTunes, but none of the apps. on my 3rd screen of my iTouch are in iTunes.

Did you check your security software settings? Troubleshooting security software issues
iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the download of the software and the update process.

Apps cant download or update

i cant download and update my apps. Can someone tell me why and how to fix it? Thank you.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Download on computer and then sync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

While downloading software update for Itunes, getting message saying detecting Ipad in recovery mode and telling us to restore Ipad to original settings, which we don't want to do. Also cannot turn on Ipad; shows Itunes symbol with connector. Help!

No promises but a System Reset is worth trying:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.

Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

Download software updates

Please help me to update my software to iOS 5.1 as my ipad2 doesn't have software update how can I download software update?

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, as your tagline indicates that your iPad is on iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
You can only update a device to the highest iOS version that it supports, which for an iPad 2 is iOS 6.1.3

Download software updates using Wi-Fi or hard wire

What is the fastest way to download software updates or the new Mountain Lion? Wi-Fi or cable? Is cabe much faster?
Thanks.

I do understand download speed depends on my internet conneciton speed. But when I plugged in the hard line the download speed increased quite significantly - as in from 12 hours to 47 minutes. Normally Wi-Fi is fairly quick but when it comes to downloading - not. That's why I asked the question. Maybe I need to change the settings on my MacBook Pro.

Either your phone is broken, or it was jailbroken. You can try a DFU restore.
