Everytime I go to get the iOS 5 download, I click "Check For Update" and everytime it says (4.2.1) is the current version. What's up with this?

Hate my iPod

You could always manually download the IPSW file:

I'd recommend holding off on updating though since the activation server is just being hammered and is signing about half it's request... in english that means you have about a 50% chance of successfully updating to iOS 5. Wait until tomorrow and I'm sure you won't have any problems.

  • I cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet".plz help

    i cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet". But i checked my internet on both my pc and iphone and tried again but it still says the same thing. plzz plzz help

    Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
    Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.

  • Trying to install the latest version of iTunes and when it is being installed I get the message "There is a problem with this installer package. A program quired for this install could not be run. Contact your support personel or package vendor."

    I am trying to install the latest version of itunes and when the install begins I get the message "There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program required for this install could not be opened. contact your support personnel or product vendor". I ran a troubleshooting diagnostic on my computer and nothing flagged as a problem. I uninstalled iTunes and tried again and now I don't have any way to sync my ipod touch. Please help with any suggestions!!!

    Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.)

    Repair your Apple software update.
    Go to START > ALL PROGRAMS > Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
    If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
    START > CONTROL PANEL/ > Add n Remove Programs, highlight ASU and click CHANGE then REPAIR

    No I have not tried those things. I don't even know what that means I suppose I have the newest version of aperature; I just bought it 4 days ago.

  • How do i programmatically get the current version of a file?

    I asked this same question in the SP2013 forum and I haven't been able to determine the solution. So I posting this here, to maybe get more eyes on this issue. 
    ...I am basically trying to programmatically get the current version of a document in a library, then determine if its a major or minor version, in code. I have tried doing this, to get the current version but I keep getting an empty string returned.
    var versions = item.File.Versions;
    string currentVersion = string.Empty;
    foreach (SPListItemVersion version in item.Versions)
    DateTime lastMod = version.Created;
    foreach (SPFileVersion fileVersion in versions)
    if (fileVersion.IsCurrentVersion == true)
    currentVersion = fileVersion.ToString();
    Does anyone know what am doing wrong, and how to get this resolved? I really appreciate the help. Thanks

    Why not just get the SPListItem and look at it's Version property? That'll be the latest version.
    No need to go into the Versions collection etc. When you get a list item you get the current version as standard.

  • Whenever I try to update iTunes to 10.5 I get the message 'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.'

    Whenever I try to update iTunes to 10.5 I get the message 'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.'
    I then uninstalled iTunes to try and reinstall it but I still get the same message for both 10.5 and previous versions, please help!

    My situation:
    - get error when updating iTunes from 1041 to 1050 or above: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
    My system: XP SP3 with all latest updates.
    Found out that the 1051 update fixes a major intrusion possibility during the update process, so I want to get iTunes upgraded to 1051.
    Did more research and the following worked (not known if all steps outlined were necessary) (I do not guarantee success nor any more issues as a result):
    - ran: MicrosoftFixit.ProgramInstallUninstall.exe (did JUST the patch option).
    - ran: Windows Installation Removal Tool.exe (uninstalled JUST the iTunes program installer folder) (this does not remove the actual program).
    - removed all apple software update registry entries.
    - removed: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple\Installer Cache\(JUST the software updatefolders) (hidden folder).
    - removed: C:\Documents and Settings\current user\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\(JUST the software  update folders) (hidden folder).
    - DID NOT need to restart
    - downloaded latest iTunes update (1051)
    - opened using WinRAR
    - extracted all files
    - ran JUST the apple software update MSI
    - it succeeded
    - ran JUST the iTunes MSI
    - it succeeded
    - normally I then uninstall the apple software update program, but DID NOT this time
    - DID NOT need to restart
    Hope it works for you.

  • Can I get the Java version of mobile tv with the r...

    I would like to know how to get the Java version of mobile tv with the removed mobile tv application, so I can view the Sky EPG programme guide on my E90.
    Can anyone tell me how I can get it please. The version from sky will not work but reading other posts on here suggests that the java version might.
    Please help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Sky have made it near impossible to get this application on current phones.
    Luckily for you the java version is available for download as part of this useful guide.
    The instructions are for the N95 but should work on an E90. I've got it working on an N82 and N96 at the moment.
    Just a note about the java app: It says it's for a sony but it works perfectly on a nokia. Not sure how it will look on the E90's big screen so if it doesn't work try the front screen.

  • I'm trying to update my software to iTunes 10.5.2.  I click on the install button, click the Accept button, the software checks for updates, and then I am back at the original download screen.  I can't seem to get past this loop.  Any suggestions?

    If I go through the setup that you suggested, won't I screw up the existing software on my system?
    No. The iTunes installer will first uninstall the existing version of iTunes and then put in the new one. (That's actually also what happens when you use Apple Software Update to install a new version ... it just doesn't show the uninstall phase like the iTunes64Setup.exe or iTunesSetup.exe does.)

  • My iPad 5 will not charge, I get the message " CHARGING IS NOT SUPPORTED WITH THIS DEVICE

    I get the message " CHARGING IS NOT SUPPORTED WITH THIS DEVICE. I've checked different cables and chargers ( from our other iPad 5, and cleaned the port, but it won't charge plugged into the computer or ghargers.

    If charging will not work with valid cables and chargers and the Lightning port is clear, there is likely a hardware issue.  Take the iPad to an Apple store genius bar and have it tested by the techs.

  • I have installed itunes 10.7 several times.  All goes well.  After reboot, I go into itunes and check for updates and it says I need to download the update 10.7! (And so cant sync with my Iphone)

    I have installed itunes 10.7 several times, all goes well. After reeboot, I go to check for updates and it still wants to update to version 10.7! I cant sync to my iphone4 because I get an error message saying I need version 10.6.3 or later. Help

    Thank you for getting me started on the track by mentioning "Revo" Uninstaller.  The results of "Revo" spoke volumns on why a successful install of ITunes is so difficult to achieve.  It is the evil "BONJOUR".
    I then tripped upon the following site by Apple and the detailed directions (I read, printed, re-read and followed the instructions.  It was intense) brought a successful ITunes, Quick Time and the lovely Bonjour home.  Thank you for the start JD42.
