Iphone 5 has long delay 15 sec or more when typing message. recently downloaded new software update
i bought a new iPhone 5s in November. a few days ago I was asked if I wanted to upgrade my software to 7 something, I dont have my phone so I am unable to give you the specific number of the new software. Now I am unable to type unless I wait at great length for each character to show. I will take me three minutes to type a 3 word sentence, in both Text messaging and email. I saw a post from google that I should use reset button. I gone to general settings opened and selected reset all after that I did not have any success. Phishfry60
Please excuse some of the typos. It's late and the browser shut down on a me a few times.

How can I download new software without the mac app store
I have tried to obtain new software since lion came out and have not been able to do so because I do not have the mac app store on my mac book pro. There is no hard copy of the new software so I find myself pretty much stuck. Is there anyway i can get around this?
You need 10.6.8 or later to access the App Store. Start with:
Snow Leopard General requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
If you need Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay -
The problem is that im getting an error saying time out!!! and when i start downloading again it starts from zero!!
Their alternative option is for you to bring it into the store
You could google and look for some download helpers (presuming they still exist, haven't used them in years) but they're freeware or adware that caches your download to help you recover from timeouts.
the timeout is possibly caused by your ISP, if they regularly cycle routers or the such it 'burps' your connection causeing it to cut out.
You might try taking your laptop to your local library which may have wifi. Or, as the others have suggested, a friend's house with cable internet. -

Slow downloads and software updates despite fast internet connection
Hello,
I'm running Leopard 10.5.8 on a 1.25Ghz iMac G4. I have an 0x14E4, 0x4E Airport Extreme card, and can connect to Safari quite quickly.
My only trouble is with software updates and downloads - with software updates, the download speed gets ridiculously low and comes virtually to a standstill. When downloading from the internet, the download speed is slightly better but still very slow.
I have tested my connection on speedtest.net, and results say my download speed is of only 0.5 Mbps, whilst a more recent Macbook Pro connected to the same wifi network achieved 10.2 Mbps.
I had posted this in the G4 section and was told to post my issue here, another user having sugested that this might be coming from my ISP's DNS assignments.
Any idea what this might be coming from?
Thanks,
Kieran.Hi,
Thanks for your answer. I upgraded Safari and my download speed has improved - Speedtest gave it 1.43Mbps - but this is still far from the 10.2Mbps other computers on the network have.
Could this have anything to do with my Airport card? Would my connection be faster if it was using an ethernet cable rather than wireless?
Thanks,
Kieran -
i downloaded ios5.1.1 to my phone, but i dont like the new software. The face detection used in the camera jut isnt for me. So, i would like to know if there was a way to undo the update and go back to ios 5.0.1. My iphone is not jailbroken or unlocked.
The face detection used in the camera jut isnt for me.
Try a different camera app. Camera Plus is a good one and there are many others. -
I just downloaded a new software update to my ipod touch and now the ipod and screen are frozen. I received a message that the download was not successful and now my screen is showing the blue round itunes symbol with an arrow pointing to the symbol and shows a cable below it. I have tried the restart of pushing the two buttons together and waiting 10 seconds for the apple symbol which appears and then go backs to the same stuck symbol. My computer is not recognizing the ipod either and will not connect. What needs to be done? Thanks.
Try manually placin the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.
Next try DFU mode and restore

I am unable to download itunes software onto my PC windows 7. the progress bar stops at around 80%. If my security (Spyware is blocking it then I don't know how to 'temporarily' disable it, or then get it back?
I've been unable to research a reason its trying to go to a directory that does not exist. It leaves me with out any way to sinc tunes onto my iPod.

I just downloaded a new software update on my I-phone5. As part of the process I was asked to sign in to iCloud and enter the password for an ID that I've long ago deleted with Apple. Anyone know why my new apple ID isn't coming up?
No. The problem is that when you changed Apple IDs you did not update your Apple ID to reflect the change, so your phone is still associated with the old ID. You will need to un-associate it. The process is the same as what you would do if you sold the phone. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661

I have a Macpro Book and I just downloaded new software to my ipod touch(3rd gen). Now it does not show up in itunes nor does it turn on. I believe it just downloaded the software and never updated it. What do I do?
You appear to have a second generation iPod touch, not a third, and those can't be updated past 4.2.1. Apple sold 8GB second generation models at the same time as the third generation ones.

I have just upgraded to Windows 8 and my scyning and upgrading my phone with new apple software fails, Itunes looses connection with the device (phone), cant backup the phone or download new software, is this an issues with Windows
Hi, stig2013.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps.
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
Cheers,

I want to download a software update. How do I do this? I went to settings into general and the icon wasn't there! I need help immediately please!
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You will only find the Software Update option if you have got iOS 5 or newer, and you say you are using iOS 4, so first you need to use iTunes to update your iPad to the most recent version, which is iOS 7.1 > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623
