Difficulty in updating to iOS 5

I have difficulty in updating the iOS to version 5. It takes too long, and the connection would time out. This may not be a problem on Apple's side, but can you guys help me out on how to prevent the connectiong from timing out?

  • I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app.  I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect.  Hotmail works fine on Mac.  Has anyone had this difficulty

    I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app.  I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect.  Hotmail works fine on Mac.  Has anyone had this difficulty and been able to resolve it?

    Did you try deleting the mail account, then adding it back?   I've read a lot of times that is what needs to happen in order for it to work properly.

  • After updating to IOS 6 in both iPhones and iPads I have difficulty to update applications, since I cannot switch from US store to my ID store which is in Greece.

    After updating to IOS 6, I cannot update apps, it produces a MSG you cannot use your ID in the US store. my apple store is in Greece how can I change this from iPhone/ IPad?

    I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming.  So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on.  But the ipad is a different story.  I have the music and artist but not one playlist  I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this. 
    Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
    I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z.  Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac.  Which I do talk highly of all the time.  But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
    I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not.   Any ideas?
    Thanks Al

  • My iphone 4 won't update to ios 7

    Dear Apple,
    The saturay after ios 7 came out I tried to update it over wifi on my iphone, but I got an error message. So I gave up and told myself to try again later that week and so yesterday and today I tried and on my phone it said I did not have the correct amount of space, but I did and I had just deleted somethings to make room anyways. So today I tried on my Macbook Pro, and it said I did not have the right build and so now I am here writing to you.
    Sinceraly,

  • Since updating to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4S...

    Since updating to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4S my iPod app runs very slow and crashes a lot. Once playing I can switch songs and what not with little difficulty, but if I go back to the list of songs/artists/etc it freezes or force quits. I don't know what to do as this is the only problem I've had. Any help would be appreciated.

  • IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

    iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open.  So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

    Maybe. See:

  • Home Sharing is not working following update to iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6

    First, the problem:
    I am not able to see any shared libraries  when using the Music and Video apps on my iPhone 4.
    Next, the specs:
    iTunes 10.6 on MBP running Mac OS X 10.7.3
    iPhone 4 runinng iOS 5.1
    Wi-Fi connections for both MBP and iPhone 4
    Both connect to same network using same SSID with static IP addressing and UPnP enabled.
    MBP connects using 5 GHz N-Only anntena.
    iPhone 4 connects using 2.4 GHz NG-Mixed antenna. (Hopefully next iteration of iPhone supports 5 GHz.)
    Third, what I have tried:
    Everything in "Troubleshooting Home Sharing" (KB Article TS2972 - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972).
    Re-entering my Apple ID credentials for both Music and Movies in iOS Settings.
    Re-entering my Apple ID credentials for Home Sharing in iTunes.
    Setting up Port Forwarding for both the iPhone 4 and MBP in my router for the relevant TCP and UDP ports (just in case). However, this did not help.
    Finally, what I have noticed:
    My Remote app on the iPhone 4 works without issue and can control iTunes running on my MBP.
    My Air Mouse app on the iPhone 4 works without issue and can control my MBP.
    My wireless printer connected to the network via the 2.4 GHz antenna (it only supports 802.11g) is usable - I can print to it and access its embedded web server management tool.
    So, in the end, Home Sharing no longer works on my iPhone 4 after updating both IOS and iTunes (all other apps and software updates are current for both the phone and the MBP). I believe I have ruled out any issues with which antenna is being used for which device. I am out of ideas on how to get Home Sharing to work again.
    Any suggestions or possible solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you gurus in advance!

    Spoke to a "senior advisor" in the Apple TV department.  Her suggestions:  change channel in router to minimize/eliminate wifi interference from other users; move router away from any metal - i.e., DVD player, phone modem, etc.; keep router away from wireless 2.4 gH phones, which are "notorious" for crashing wifi routers.  So she confirms that the problem is one of connection to router suddenly dropping out.
    My own feeling is that none of these fixes will do the trick, because it seems pretty clear that there is a hardware component here - the timing of the drops seems like an overheating issue.  It takes 35-40 minutes for the box to warm up enough for the first drop; then each consecutive drop happens quicker than the one before, as it heats up more.  Each time it drops, its tiny brain gets a little more scrambled; last night it finally wouldn't start up again at all.
    My suggestion is that everyone who is experiencing this problem, please call Apple tech support and ask to speak to a senior advisor in the Apple TV department.  Make them aware of this problem!

    Hi,
    I have exactly the same issue as everyone above. I only get sound through the slider on the ringtone in settings and through my headphones. I do not get any sound anywhere else at all.
    I Have tried:
    - Updating to iOS 6.1.3
    -re starting the device
    -checking that the device is not muted. My slider switch is set to mute rather than lock and is unmuted.
    -going into general settings and reset all settings
    -the device reset several times (waiting until I saw the all important apple logo)
    -removing the last few apps I installed.
    Nothing at all has worked, please help!

  • "No sim installed" error after updating to iOS 5.1

    A notification popped up this morning asking me to update to iOS 5.1 so I updated it. Once I downloaded and installed it, it said "no sim installed". I have rebooted my phone, taken out and put back in the sim but the error message remains. I can't make calls or message, but my internet works. Anything else I can try?

    i have the same problem with the 4s.  I have a (cutdown) sim from virgin (in the UK), who do not offer the iphone, but it worked perfectly until this upgrade (to ios 5.1).  The phone was bought unlocked from apple.  now i have the no sim error.  I am trying a restore and have booked a genius bar appt for later today.  I have a very expensive touch at present.  The sim is working fine in my old nokia, so it is not the sim that is faulty.  What is going on here, why would i want to upgrade if this just creates problems.  I have been up since 5am now trying to sort this so i have a phone again.

    BSNL is not a supported carrier. Personal Hotspot requires carrier support and provisioning of the account to enable it. iOS 7.1 disabled the ability to manually configure Personal Hotspot on unsupported carriers.

  • IPHONE 5 RUNNING IOS 6.1.4 WON'T LET ME UPDATE TO IOS.7

    Hi, I have an iPhone 5 running IOS 6.1.4 and was wanting to update to IOS.7 wirelessly but when I go into Software Update it tells me this software is up to date and doesn't give me any option to update to IOS 7. I know the software has been released from today so was wondering why I can't update.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    I feel silly now, I just looked it up and it won't be released until 6pm my time.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? How can this problem be solved?

    Dear all,
    I am new to this community even though I have been a Apple user for years, so please forgive me if this question is not in the right section.
    Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? I've always been happy with these two products until the update - now the battery life is considerably shorter which is extremely frustrating.
    How can this problem be solved? Is there any way to go back to the previous version?
    Thanks for your help.

    If you update using iTunes the phone is first wiped clean, then the new OS is installed, and finally the backup is restored. After this finishes if you sync your music should be restored. Music is not in the backup, because it is already on your computer and duplicating it would use up a lot of hard disk space.
    An OTA update just patches what has changed; it does not disturb content.
