DOWNLOAD IOS 5 IMPOSSIBLE

I am not able to download IOS 5 as i have the message that the file is corrupted. Does someone knows what to do ? THanks in advance. Elsa

This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting.  Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
Change DNS Servers
Settings -> Wi-Fi
Click the blue arrow on your connected network
Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Try again
If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
On your Mac
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
You can use OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
or
You can Google Public DNS if you want
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

  • Finishing synch on iphone 4 After downloading iOS 7.0.3 - Is it impossible?

    After downloading iOS 7.0.3 when I try to sych my iphone 4 it does everything up to 'finishing synch' which takes forever and I had to shut down ofter leaving for 4 hours. I tried again, did an upgrade and sync  bbut two hours in it's still finishing. 

    Hello there, CollinG123.
    You may want to first try restarting/resetting your iPhone following the steps in this Knowledge Base article:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, the steps for iOS devices, in this article, may also help:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Particularly:
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Downloaded iOS 7.0.2 and one of my apps (ultimate history quiz) changed size. It is so large I am not able to play the game because most of the print is off the screen on my iPad. Help!!!!

    Had an app (Ultimate History Quiz) that I played frequently. It came up on the screen in the smaller iPhone version. Then I downloaded iOS 7.0.2, and now the app is so big that the printing goes off the screen, making it impossible to play. I checked the app sore to buy another one, and it is no longer available on there.  WHAT CAN I DO TO RESTORE THE GAME TO ITS ORIGINAL SIZE???????

    Wait for apple to tweak things....or talk to the app developer. they haven't updated since the update and unless APple happens to fix whatever the issue is, then the burden is on history to make their app work with the iOS

    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Restore “...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If necessary Place the Device into Recovery mode...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
    You may need to try this More than Once...
    Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
    But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

  • I downloaded a book to my Ipad and when I went to sync with Itunes on my PC- it removed the book from my Ipad, but shows it on the PC.  I have it "checked" to be synced but it still does not show up on my Ipad?  This also happened after I downloaded IOS 5

    I downloaded a book on my Ipad and after syncing to my PC, it was dropped from the Ipad, but shows up on my PC?  I have it "checked" to be synced but it will not come back onto my Ipad.  This is also after I downloaded IOS 5.1 for the Ipad.  Does anyone know why it would be dropped from the Ipad?

    Sometimes simply restarting your iTunes, the computer and the iPad is all that it takes to correct an issue like this so try that. Quit iTunes, reboot your computer, and restart the iPad. Then try the sync again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Just downloaded IOS 6 and it disabled my favorite game, Bubblets Tilt, and it won't let me reload this game I originally bought through the Apps store because it says it is no longer sold in the US. I tried to download off website and same. Help!

    Just downloaded IOS 6 and it disabled my favorite game, Bubblets Tllt. Restarted and no luck. Tried to download new app and it is gone. Tried to download from website off Safari and message it is no longer sold in the US. Please help. Apple owes me for the cost of this app. Plus Google Maps is infinitely better and that the download kicking it off makes me want to buy an android. And I am not alone is resenting this meddling in my right to keep what I originally purchased. What are they thinking?

    hi Bern 
    Firstly welcome to Crowd Support  
    The Australian Communications Industry Forum (ACIF) Credit Management code states that Telstra must perform s credit assessment when a customer is applying to us for credit.   
    For our Credit Assessments to be passed there are many factors of information considered to determine if the Credit Assessment is satisfied. 
    There are many reasons why a Credit application may be declined, and one of the most common is due to the new Customer not having any previous history with Telstra.
    While this may be frustrating for you, in the circumstance of a Mobile Phone contract being involved, we really do need to be sure that we have the correct billing information, up to date contact details and also viability to pay bills on time. 
    There is a process where this decline decision can be disputed, and I would be more than happy to lodge this dispute for you if you could provide me with some information. 
    I will send you a PM so that we can work together offline to lodge this dispute.

  • My iPhone won't allow me to download IOS 5

    When I download IOS 5, a message appears and says, iPhone will not take IOS 5. When I try to update my apps, it says that the apps are not compatible on this devise...?

    If you're already running iOS 5.1.1 that is the most current version.  As such, no issue exists.

  • Hi I am just after downloading ios 5 to my iphone but now the apps on my phone won't open or work? Any ideas as to why? thanks.

    Hi, I am just after downloading ios 5 to my iphone but now the apps on my phone won't work, even the free ones. Have tried deleting and reinstalling but it asks for credit card details even for the free apps. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks

    If it is asking for account details then it might just need you to confirm your account before it lets you proceed. Maybe the terms and conditions changed since last time or something like that. Try signing into your Apple account in iTunes on a computer first to check that. Then restart the phone and try again.

    What iOS are you currently running?
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • Trying to download iOS 7.1 and I get a "Network Error" message. How can I fix this?

    Hello. Today iOS 7.1 came out and I want to get it.  I currently do not have 2.5GB of free storage on my iPhone 5s so I wanted to use iTunes to download and install iOS 7.1.  The problem is that every time I try to download iOS 7.1 I get a "Network Error" message (screenshot provided).  The alternative I tried to use is downloading the IPSW file directly from the internet but I also get a network error (screenshot provided).  I was able to download anything and everything else I wanted to download today but only get this error when downloading an Apple IPSW file.  I downloaded iOS 7.0.6 less than a week ago through iTunes and didn't have an error but with iOS 7.1 I am having many difficulties.  I disconnected my internet and tried again but still no success.  Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this problem?  Any input will help!  Thanks so much!
    The error through iTunes
    The error through Google Chrome

    Try directly from your device. I had the same problem but it updated when i tried from the device itself.

  • I can't get iOS 6.1.1 on my 4th gen ipod touch. It says "Error. Unable to download iOS 6.1.1" Help?

    My iPod 4th Generation does not let me download iOS 6.1.1...
    The reason I want 6.1.1 is because I want to download kik and a load of other apps but I need 6.1.1. 
    The message is "Error. Unable to download iOS 6.1.1" or something, and I have no idea what it means or how to fix it because I know barely anything about the apple software things.
    I've read a few things about it and discovered that this issue is common, but I can't get the answer I need, and the other posts about this issue were made like two years ago. I've got enough space, definitely, and last night it was downloading it so I put it on the charger and went to sleep, when I woke up it said "Cannot download. Internet connection is required." something like that. I had no issues last night, but now it's saying it cannot download.
    Can someone please help?
    I've not updated my ipod for a year or so now, but I'm still not sure why it's not working.
    Thanks so much!
    PS: I currently have ios 5 point something.

    You have to have an internet connection, either wireless or through a computer with iTunes.  When you choose Software Update you can only update to the latest version for your iPod Touch, iOS 6.1.6
