  • HT1414 How do I download iOS 5 Software update?

    Please how do I download iOS 5 Software update if I'm not ready to update via iTunes?

    I have a job, so I don't hang your every word as soon as you post a reply to a thread in which I've participated. Now I've read your other post correcting the fact that I put 6.0.2 as the latest version of iPhone software I won't refer to the version specifically any more.
    So, is iOS 5 available for download?
    I find you very aggresive in your approach and if it continues, I will more than likely only ask questions on here rather than trying to assist others.
    I have better things to do and I'm just trying to help.

    Here's how to reinstall iTunes:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Depending on your iPod model and iOS you can also update "Over the Air" by going into Settings/General/Software update. You'll need a Wi-Fi connection to do this and your iPod has to be connected to the adapter.

  • "Files shared by these updates has no valid signature" How can I download I-tune software update

    I have a problem with installing the version 5 of the I-Pad software. It says "Files shared by these updates has no valid signature. It will not be installed.
    Thanks,

    Which "software updates" are you trying to download?  For iTunes?  iPod Nano?  Did you download the Windows version?

  • I can't download the Ipod software update

    I've been trying all night to download the software update and it keeps giving me error -3259 saying my network wasn't working properly. Well that's not true since I've been browsing the web while downloading and playing xbox live all night. I know that I can connect to the internet just fine but it just keeps saying I can't download the update. I have the newest version of iTunes I just downloaded it tonight so I know that is not the problem. I have no idea what else to do. Anything you guys know that would help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for all the help!

    I did. Itunes isn't blocked by windows firewall. I'm trying to see if I can unblock it under Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 but I haven't been able to find out how yet.

  • Help downloading ipod Software Update

    My sister plugged in my new ipod nano to a PC and reformatted it halfway before she unplugged it. PC's won't recognize it, and my Mac says its windows formatted. I think restoring it is my only option. Unfortunately I live on an island and the internet is really slow (it says 10 hours downloading time for the 58MB of the ipod Software Update even though I pay the equivalent of 75 dollars a month for a cable modem!). I'm patient and wouldn't care so much if it weren't for the fact that the internet gets cut off every half hour or so, and the download starts back up from scratch each time (someone's got to tell itunes to incorporate a download manager!!!). I've been trying to download it for three weeks now and still have 0Mb of the download. Is there any way that I can download whatever software I need to restore the ipod through a download manager--I wrote Apple support about this but got no solution. I really don't know what to do. I will NEVER be able to download 58MB here. Please, please help.

    That is what they call broadband in Easter Island, the regular telephone connection is 15 hours (we should all protest but that's another story). Anyway, I have a download manager called iGetter, I just don't know how to get iTunes to do the download from there since there is no web address to copy. Thanks for the free download manager web address though...any idea on how I get it to do download the ipod software update or any other kind of ipod nano restore software. Still, I read elswhere that you can only restore through iTunes, could that be true? I looked at the Apple Support Downloads section and there are updaters you can download but they don't support my 3rd generation iPod nano. I'm an Apple fan, I am!, but really, why does it have to start the download from scratch each time? I think more than just 1% of us would be happy if it the download started from where it left off, especially concerning heavy downloads.

  • Problem with video after installing ipod software update 1.2

    I recently downloaded the ipod software update version 1.2 for my ipod. It seems to have changed the video screen output as some of my videos now do not play full screen and instead have black boarders down each side of the screen while playing.
    At first I thought switching off the widescreen option in the video settings screen would fix the problem but doing this cuts off a large portion of the picture at the top and bottom of the screen. I can only assume this change in screen ratio came with the update and was wondering if anyone knows of a way to fix this problem or if it will be fixed in the next ipod software update with some kind of option to switch screen ratios in the video settings menu.
    I would like to keep updating my ipod but have since reset it so icould get full screen video playback and have been avioding the updates incase it happens again.

    hmmmm. were those videos that you converted yourself
    with QT Pro, alg2? if so, it might be worth checking
    on the possibility from this document:
    QuickTime Pro: DV format movies may require
    adjustment for iPod
    (if the source files were DV PAL, that can produce
    the "bars down the side" effect ... unlike NTSC where
    you get the "bars along the top" effect shown in the
    graphic in the document.)
    I did convert them myself but but not with quicktime pro will this solution still apply if were to purchase QT Pro or should i contact the company i bought my programme from.

  • PROBLEM: iPod software update

    I have been on the website numerous times to download the iPod software update and every time the process seems to go through all the steps successfully, until I try to sync my iPod with iTunes and I get this error message:
    SOME OF THE SONGS IN ITUNES MUSIC LIBRARY WERE NOT COPIED TO THE IPOD BECAUSE YOUR IPOD SOFTWARE IS TOO OLD. GO TO WWW.APPLE.COM TO GET THE LATEST IPOD SOFTWARE UPDATE.
    I got to the website to download the update every time I get this message, reboot the computer as prompted after the download, and then I try to sync and I STILL get the error message. Please help!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    After you downloaded the iPod software updater, you need to install the updater, then run it. Attach the iPod when you are told, and choose update. Then the software on the iPod will be updated.
    By the way, do you have an iPod AC charger? I am not sure but you may be required to plug the iPod to the charger to complete the update.

  • I just downloaded a new software update to my ipod touch and now my ipod is frozen with a screen picture of music round blue symbol and an arrow displaying a cable connection. I received a message saying that the download was not successful.

    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

    Can I still download iPod software updates?
    Yes, assuming they're compatible with that iPod model. iOS 4 can't be used on the original iPod touch.
    iPod is out of warranty.
    This only affects how long Apple will freely provide technical support, repairs to, or replacement of the device.

    Well, can you access the iTunes store sucessfully, or not?
    First, try restarting your computer. I know it's probably an issue deeper than that, but sometimes it's just a small glitch that a restart could cure.
    Also, try switching your firewall and internet security settings to OFF, then try updating your iPod's software again, and see what happens.
