Error message when trying to update ipod.

Sorry but this has never happened to me before. I had accidently deleted everything off of my ipod when doing a re-format of my HD. I re-formated the ipod thinking it was a ill-created partition of my HD.
Now when I go to put in the new software update it says it cannot mount ipod. This is the message I got after using the "restore" button for ipod updater. as it would not just allow me to update. What is happening and do I need to find firmware for the ipod?

Okay.
See if you can do any of the steps listed here or in the related documents...
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation point
I doubt that you will be able to without getting the Can't Mount iPod message, but it's worth a try!
If it still won't work, your iPod may need service...

Error message when trying to update ipod software

I have OS 10.3.9 but am getting the following message...,
You cannot install this software on this volume. This update requires OS 10.2.8 or higher. Please advise. Thanks.

If you're trying to install the updater onto your iPod directly, you can't. Instead, install the iPod updater onto your hard disk, and then open the /Applications/Utilities/iPod Software Updater folder. There should be one or more copies of the iPod updater inside this folder; double-click the most recent copy. Once the iPod updater has opened with the iPod plugged in, click the Update button and then follow the onscreen instructions to complete the update. If you get a message telling you the updater couldn't find a firmware image, choose the Update iPod command from the Options menu to continue with the update.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
While normally it is much more accurate to search with the accurate and complete error message, including all punctuation and error codes, in your case here is a KB that discusses that error:
KB28188"BlackBerry App World is having trouble connecting to the BlackBerry App World server. Verify your network connections and try again. (Error id: 40820) " error is displayed when opening App World on the BlackBerry smartphone
Hopefully it contains something useful! There also are multiple existing threads on this site that discuss that exact error...your review of those might prove useful, and a search of this site, using the error message, error code, or symptom, should reveal all applicable existing threads to you.
Good luck and let us know!

Macbook pro - iPhoto keep prompting to update after Yosemite update. Error message when trying to update -This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was cancelled

macbook pro - iPhoto keep prompting to update after Yosemite update. Error message when trying to update -This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.

I only have 1 apple ID and the same was used to set up this early 2011 macbook pro and iPhoto app. I don't want to loose out on any photos. I tried logging out of app store and back in but no luck. PLEEAASEE HELPP!!!
This problem has been reported by quite a few forum members, who skipped the update to iPhoto 9.5.1 while running Mavericks. In that case try to purchase iPhoto again instead of updating.
After making your backup try the following:
Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the applications folder, but do not empty the Trash.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your AppleID.
Open the main page of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support, as Niel pointed out: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/

On My Mac Pro Getting an unknown error message when trying to update apps

On My Mac Pro Getting an unknown error message when trying to update apps To Perchase Mountain Lion

Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
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.
Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I keep getting "the network connection could not be established" error message when trying to update my iPads and iPhone to iOS 5.1

I keep getting "the network connection could not be established" message when trying to update my iPad, iPad2 and iPhone4 devices using either my iMac or MacBook. The Macs and iOS devices are apparently working correctly otherwise. Problem started about a day ago when I connected one of the iPads to my iMac and iTunes notified my of an update for the device. I tried and got the above message. Tryied other iPad2 and iPhone4 and get the same message. Also, get same message when trying to update using the MacBook. My system SW is 10.7.3 on the iMac and 10.6.8 on MacBook. iTunes is version 10.6. Have gone thru the check list of things to check and have re-started. Would appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

Another user named Springbk posted a fix that worked for me as I was having the same problem today:
I Changed my DNS settings to OpenDNS
On a Mac go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES>NETWORK>ADVACED>DNS
change DNS by adding ( + )
208.67.222.222
then
208.67.220.220
click okay/apply after. then try the update. after the update, just delete the two open DNS server numbers. should revert back to your old one.

HT201210 keep getting error message when trying to update iOS to 5.1.1

I have had no trouble updating the several iPads under my charge at work, however can't update my own. Am using iOS 5.1 currently on original iPad. I go to settings and it looks for any updates available and I click install to 5.1.1 but keep getting error message saying there was an error when trying to update. I am on my home wifi on my iPad. Have done same procedure with about 5 other iPads with no trouble. What can I do?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

Unknown error message when trying to update or download Apps?

Hello! I have had no problems till now, and have been happily downloading and updating for 9 months. Yesterday I received an unknown error message when I tried to update an App on my IPad 2, and have since been unable to update or download. Have tried closing down and restarting, changing password, and usual things. Any good ideas? Does this happen often? Everything is working, I simply can't download from App store. Thank you for any helpful suggestions.

Error message when trying to update Leopard 10.5.1 to 10.5.2

I was happy when I switched from PC to Mac a year ago. But since upgrading to Leopard I have had so many problems that it reminds me of my (bad) experience with Windows... Where I live in dark Africa there is no support at all, so I hope some of you have a solution for my problems.
Since upgrading to Leopard I have had a lot of minor problems, which are quite irritating. But now it is getting serious, as a number of updates have failed. I just bought Aperture 2, which needs OSX 10.5.2. And now I can't upgrade form 10.5.1 to 10.5.2!
First I couldn't run the Security Update 2007-09, downloaded through Software Update. The error message said: The update "Security Update" can't be installed. The installer could not validate the contents of the "SecUpd2007-09" package. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
I then tried - in vain - to install the 10.5.2 upgrade: The error message says almost the same as the above mentioned, but mentions "MacOSXUpd10.5.2Patch".
I then tried to follow the recommendations and downloaded the MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.2 file. 343,4 MB through my 64 kb/s connection (!!!). Imagine the nightmare, when the error message appeared: "Checksum Invalid".
Maybe I should add that when trying to update Quicktime the error message said something about that the operation failed because there was tampered with the file...!
Thanks guys

William,
In fact I have tried both the normal software update a couple of times AND downloading the combo installer. The message, when trying to install the latter, was "Checksum Invalid". Is it possible that the files get corrupt during download? I am getting crazy - I need the upgrade to 10.5.2 in order to upgrade Aperture 1.5 to 2.0, which again is necessary in order to download images from my new camera... :((

I get an error message when trying to update quicktime player

why do i get an error message when i try to update quicktime player that says "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable", and further states that "click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'quicktime.msi' in the box below".. when i try to locate the file quicktime.msi, i am unable to locate it anywhere on my pc, which then will not allow me to complete the installation, nore will it allow me to uninstall the application.

"the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable", and further states that "click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'quicktime.msi' in the box below"..
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?
