Error 9006 - Update to iOS for iPad

I have been trying to update my iOS software to 4.2 for my iPad and keep getting the error 9006 and have to start the procedure all over again. Sometimes it gets to 200mb complete, sometimes just 20mb.
I have searched previous forums and cannot find any information to help. I am using Windows Vista with iTunes 10.1
Can someone please help!

Ok! Eureka! I think I've got it!
Quick background. I live in CPT and my parents in DBN. I have an ipad and iphone 3Gs and have had NO problem with downloads. Its important to note though that I have the Telkom 4Meg DSL line that is called their 'fastest - 4096kbps'. My parents have the 'Faster' which is 512kbps -or middle of the road. My dad has been unable to get the updates AT ALL since he got his equipment. Anyway i tried for 2 solid weeks to do the updates on both iphone and ipad to no avail. Kept getting error 9006. We have since discovered that DSL line that they have at home is not operating to even a 1/4 of its supposed 'faster' marketing. In fact when my mother tried to upgrade they said she couldnt because they dont have capacity to do so...yet they still pay the price! Anyway, when I got back to CPT i updated both my dads ipad and iphone in 15 mins and with no error. Thats what made me think its a speed and line error for the area you live in. You need to check if the line is stable and fast enough to do the update. Check that here [if you are in SA] http://www.telkomsa.net/ and go to speed test. My download speed is 1.68Mb/s. So if you want the update, do it in a place that offers the fastest DSL, its a Telkom issue. Hope this helps

  • Error 3259 updating to IOS 4.3.4 (iphone4) and 4.3.5 (ipad)

    I got error 3259 updating my iphone and ipad to the latest IOS releases. i tried many times. It cant be coming from my end, my connection is good, and tried downloading sessions using my browser, which works just fine. My broadband connection is also fine, im using GPON fiber, high speed.
    It seems that Apple's update servers TTL (time-to-live) settings is off the right scale.
    Apple and users, please help.

    Did you click on the link just below that that says:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    You have to read the entire support article and follow the subsequent links if the first solutions do not resolve the issue....

  • IOS for iPad 3.2.1

    What is so critical about this update? Why not wait until iOS for iPad 4.0 is released in 3 - 4 months?

    It corrects a lot of little bugs. I'm quite happy with the update.
    What bugs have you seen corrected?
    Also, it corrected the formula for displaying bars of signal for 3G, so it's similar to the iPhone 4.
    Not for me - I have a WiFi only version.
    Finally, you don't know when the iOS 4.0 for the iPad will be out. It could be delayed.
    Well, since APPLE said that iOS for iPad 4.0 would be released in the Fall (Northern Hemisphere) of 2010, and since said FALL runs from ca. 22 Sep to 22 Dec, that is my basis for saying 3 - 4 months. However, you are correct; I should have said 3 - 5 months.
    I figure that before iOS for iPad 4.0 is released, we'll have already seen iOS for iPhone 4.1 come out.

  • After the new IOS for Ipad the words with friends app will not let me sign on (it says item I wish to buy is no longer available????) I uninstalled it but when I tried to install it still repeats (item you wish to buy...)  Help

    After downloading the new IOS for Ipad I cannot use Words for Friends from Ipad.  I uninstalled it but when I try to reinstall it pops up with "item you wish to buy is no longer available". 

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

  • Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. Any suggestions please?

    Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
    Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

    As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

  • Will there be an update in Pages for ipad that will allow for sub scripts and superscripts

    I am a chemistry professor who loves to work on the ipad. The problem I have is that the mathematics I use and chemical equations is use in my writings need both super scripts and subscripts. I would love to use my ipad for this, but presently, the only way I can do this is with a third party app that allows me to create the formulas and the paste them in the document I am working on. Will there be an update to Pages for ipad that will allow subscripts and super scripts. I would love to move away from my Office 2010, but the support is not there yet.

    We cannot speculate about future Apple products. We know no more about this than you do at this time.
    You can suggest it to Apple at Apple Feedback.

  • Why can't i update the ios for my ipod? I'm stuck at 3.1.3. Please help.

    Why can't i update the ios for my ipod? I'm stuck at 3.1.3. Please help.
    I have itunes updated but it doesn't show that an update is available for the ipod.

    Probably because yu have a 1G iPod that can only go as high as 3.1.3. To identify your iPod:

    If you have a later iPod, what version of iTunes do you have on your computer and what computer OS and version?

  • Is the iOS 6.1.3 update worth it for iPad 2?

    I have iOS 4.3.2, so it would be a big jump. I don't like the fact that I'll lose the YouTube app (I use it, I've never really used Google Maps app, though), but it's nice to be able to update my apps and download apps that require a higher OS.
    However, I have heard/read a lot about connection issues for the iPad after updating to iOS 6.1.3. For me, losing the Wi-Fi would be like losing the iPad. I've also read that it "breaks" the ability for the device to connect to the Internet? I don't want permanent damage...
    Do you think there will be an update 6.1.5 that will fix the Wi-Fi bug before iOS 7 comes out?

    Many people using iPad 2 have the Wi-Fi problem: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5014501?
    I would just like to know if they were unlucky or if you were lucky...
