Download of ios 7.0.6 takes 50h?

The download of ios 7.0.6 projects 50h for download from the Apple server. It looks like Apple closed down their server in Hong Kong. Is there an alternative download location I can chose?

It could just be that there are a lot of people trying to download at the same time Judith, I had a similar issue when iOS 7 was initially released - it took me about 4-5 attempts to download it.
Regards,
Steve

  • I want to download the iOS 7.1.1 for the iPhone 4. It says I need 3.8 GB of storage to download. If I make space on my iPhone for the download, once downloaded, will it take up the 3.8 GB of space needed on the iPhone and will I lose that space?

    I understand that the new iOS is only 1.1GB, but I don't understand why I need at least 3.8GB of free space on my iPhone to download the new software. I also don't want to lose space on my iPhone from downloading the new software, because 3.8GB is a lot of precious space.
    Cheers guys, I would appreciate it if anyone could help me out.

    The 3.8 GB is needed to create space for the installation process and saving your data.  In the end 7.1.1 replaces the existing iOS and doesn't take up much more space on the phone.
    If you lack the download space requirements, update by using iTunes, not over the air.

    To download the iOS 7.0.4 does it take away yr GB

    If connected to Wi-Fi, use the "Over the Air" update feature in Settings/General/Software update/
    If iOS 7.0.3 is installed, it's only 16MB to download.
    If you're updating using the computer, the old version of your iOS will be replaced by the new one, and after the update you can dump the old version, which will be placed inside the waste bin.

  • HT5437 how long does it take to download the ios software

    how long does it take to download the ios software

    Depends how fast your internet it and the size of the update - used to take 10-15 mins for me on around 4 Mbps but I could sear some updates have been faster recently so maybe they've been incremental update not the whole software package.

  • How Long Does It Take To Download The iOS 8.0.2 Update?

    How long does it take to download the iOS 8.0.2 upgrade?
    I'm downloading it now through iTunes and it's been about 1 1/2 hours so far and it says there's another 2 hours to go.

    Maybe there are some server problems: Can't restore iOS 8.0.2

  • ITunes update dumped library; now re-download of IOS update is going to take even longer?

    To put this in a better perpective, I thought I had updated iTunes so I tried to install the new IOS update for iPad earlier (it only took about an hour to download) but it kept giving me an error saying I needed to update itunes in order to install... So, since I thought I already had it installed I uninstalled iTunes (since that's worked for me before) and tried installing it again, but that dumped my library (not a big deal since it's pretty much all on my computer)
    The only problem is when I plugged my iPad back in to update again it started re-downloading the IOS file that I already downloaded earlier with hours to go. Do I really have to wait for it again, or is the file I already downloaded still there? (It's okay if it's not, or there's no way to use it... I can wait for the download, I'd just rather not find out I don't have to do this twice)

    just like to correct: im on iOS 4.3.1 
    also additional info:
    - secondly i have restarted my phone and restarted itunes many times  & i have the latest version of itunes
    - restarted everything again. i synced my phone for the fun of syncing hoping that might help although i didnt have anything to sync but anyway now its reduced the time & said "8hours remaining" but in the space of 10minutes went up to "11hours remaining" seriously? please help .
    thanks

    If you're doing the full update it's almost a gig of data, take a bit to download that. It usually comes down to your internet connection.

    My iPhone 4s hasnt been used in over 6 months. Everytime I plug it into my computer and iTunes, it says it requires a restore and update. It then comes up with an error after completing the download for the restore and update (takes around 10 minutes).Someone help me as I'm using the original iPhone 3 at the moment and it won't even take an ios 7 update!

    Just to confirm on the screen of the iPhone do you see the itunes symbol with a cable pointing up to it?. If you do then your iPhone is inrecovery mode and would require you to restore it.
    Now first you want to make sure iTunes is up to date and the cable you are using is not damaged. You also want to make sure iTunes is up to date.
    Now if you get an error message then follow the article below to find out what causes the issue:

    In terms of the iPhone 3G that is definitely not able to update to iOS 7. Only the iPhone 4 and larter can update to iOS 7.

    Hi Eric Ferguson,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    Hi!
    It looks like there might be some security settings or software on your laptop that's preventing the restore process from working.
    Check out this article in Apple's support. It shows you the steps you can take to try to get around error 1611.
    Like diesel vdub said, a DFU-mode restore might give you success where a regular restore might not, so maybe you can try that.
    What you need to do is put your phone into DFU mode, which is a low-level mode that helps the restore process get a little more done, or it can help iTunes get around certain roadblocks (hopefully like the one you're experiencing!). Your computer will install special DFU-iPhone drivers for it, and then iTunes will see it as a phone that needs restoring.
    To get your phone into DFU mode:
    Plug your phone into your laptop.
    Turn the phone off.
    Press and hold the power/lock button. Keep it held in, even after the display turns on and you see something on the screen. As soon as you see something on the screen, start holding the home button as well as the power button, so that they're being pressed together.
    Keep both buttons pressed down for 10 seconds.
    After 10 seconds, release the power button, but keep holding home until the laptop sees a new USB device. Once you see that, you're in DFU mode, and you can let go of buttons. Your iPhone screen will be blank during it all, even though it's actually on, in DFU mode.
    Now your restore should work!
    If your phone shows the Apple logo or anything else while you're trying to get it into DFU mode, then something went wrong. Try the steps again. If it suddenly starts up normally again, try reducing the time to a bit less than 10 seconds--try reducing it by about a second at a time. It should work!

    Hello douraid,
    Start with the article below to get your iPhone to take a charge. Once you get it powered back on, you will want to sync again to make sure nothing was lost during the attempted sync.

  • Ever since I downloaded the iOS 6 update, my car stereo no longer works like it did before

    My Pioneer car stereo worked exactly like it was supposed to with my iPhone 4s. By syncing to the car stereo, I could listen to all of my music on my iPhone and receive Pandora in the car.  Since I downloaded the iOS 6 update two weeks ago, my car stereo has basically become inert, no longer syncs to my iPhone and has turned my expensive car stereo into a glorified CD player.  I googled this problem first and noticed many other people had the exact same problem that I have.  Since I can't undo the iOS 6 update (****, I wish I could), is there anyone out there with a similar problem and is there anything to remedy this problem. I will never download an Apple update again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Would love to see an update on issues like this.
    I have the pioneer avh-3400bh.  Prior to iOS6 on my iphone 4, everything worked as it should.  Upon updating to ios6 on the 4, and now also with the iphone 5, my head unit will play BT audio, but it receives no track/data information.  Using USB, I can no longer use my phone to browse songs, I can only use the head unit control.  the phones tell me that an accessory is connected and won't allow me to do anything.  Same for the pandora app
