HT1222 This update stuck after 4 hours of "preparing" and "downloading". Why?

Why is this download update to my iOS 6.1 ipad 2 taking so long?  It seems stuck!

If you are doing this over WiFi, try using iTunes on your Computer.

    Finally got through to tech support and found someone who seemed to know what was going on, he walked me through and using appleid.applesupport got me to a point where i could get a new password for the apple id that kept showing up. 
    I think you were on the right trail and I want to say thanks for your help.  Much appreciated

  • Hi this message appears after 2 hours downloading Mavericks : an error occurred while extracting files from the package "mzps4135638417199433253.pkg"

    Hi this message appears after 2 hours downloading Mavericks in App Store :
    an error occurred while extracting files from the package "mzps4135638417199433253.pkg"
    Same with "CMD + R"
    Help...

    It sounds to me like your Internal Hard Drive is failing.
    I recommend you buy a new one, that is a good candidate for replacing the old one, but install it in an External enclosure and Install a fresh Mac OS X on it from the DVD. You can boot your Mac from any attached drive.
    The new System can be used to get some work done, check your emails, and takes the pressure off resolving this immediately. You can also attempt to salvage files off the old drive if needed.
    Once things seem to be working, then move the new drive inside the computer. Failures at this point may be due to bad cable, which has been a problem in some of these MacBooks.
    Use security erase, write Zeroes, one pass, to re-write every block on the old drive. Any block discovered to be bad will be replaced with spares the drive holds in reserve for this purpose. If more than 10 blocks are pared on one pass, "Initialization Failed!" will be the result. Although you can try the erase again, there is some question whether you want to trust this drive with your precious data.

  • Downloading Mountain Lion on Mac Book Pro with max RAM and after 20 hours only 1.50Gb downloaded of 4.37GB. What gives?

    I have a MAC Book Pro with maximum RAM added and tried to download Mountain Lion and after 20 hours only 1.50GB downloaded of 4.37GB. Very slow and set my machine not to sleep overnight or anything. Should I give up and stick with my snow leopard?

    I think that since Apple just released the Mountain Lion 10.8.2 Update and iOS 6, their download servers are being somewhat overloaded.  It may pay to try again in a day or two after things calm down a little.  It also depends on where you live and how fast your ISP download speeds are.
    Hope this helps

    "Unlike".  iOS 7 doesnt display well on my 4S. iOS 6.1.3 should still be supported for older hardware.  I think I shall me moving to Samsung Galaxy now.  Was really hoping hte new iphone would get a bit larger.

  • Stuck with black screen with Apple and download bar approx 1 quarter done. Downloading Yosemite. It has completely stopped. I can't access anything. Please help

    Stuck with black screen with Apple and download bar approx 1 quarter done. Downloading Yosemite. It has completely stopped. I can't access anything. Please help

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

    If you have access to this site you have access to the documentation: there's a link from the OTN home page. For your convenience, here is the link to the DBMS_JOB docs: http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/appdev.920/a96612/d_job.htm#999107
    You don't say which version of the database you have - this the 9i docs, but the 817 docs are also on OTN. Besides, I don't think DBMS_JOB has changed much.

  • Firefox automatically crashes after 4 hours of use and only when a textbox is being used - problem now daily and getting worse

    This has been going on for a few weeks and started of it's own accord. I have not recently installed any new plugins or scripts, and my PC is protected by two antivirus products and so my system (WinXP) is malware free.
    I can browse firefox for up to 4 hours, and then it crashes. No matter what sites I am using, what I am doing or even if I'm at the PC... so long as there's a text box on the page then firefox will crash if the 4 hour time limit expires. I can be just about to save an hours worth of photo captions and lose all that work due to the crash, or can be in the middle of a background download but it'll still crash... daily.
    I thought this was a plugin issue, as I have disabled all plugins for javascript handling, flashgot, etc, but still it crashes. (previously on startup Firefox would hang for 5 to 10 minutes and the system would "bing" at me if I tried to click on the firefox window... eventually a 'non responsive script' window would appear relating to a flashgot script). The crash used to go whereby suddenly the page would freeze for a few seconds, followed by a minute or two of safe working, then 2 minutes of freeze and 30 seconds of safe working, with the ratio of freeze-tim:working time working in 20 seconds increments until firefox crashed... now though there is no warning, the page freezes and then it's gone. I have updated firefox several times and still the problem persists. On a previous computer, Firefox degraded to the point where it froze for 4 minutes on any page with a Flash application... now on this computer it has degraded by itself to the point where it crashes after 4 hours of use.
    I'm presently using Internet Explorer to type this question because firefox crashed again and I'm not going to sit waiting for it to reload just to get a few numbers from an information screen... therefore further info like crash ID's etc will be update in due time....

    Cool, I'll try using the wall adaptor just as soon as I get a convertor for it to convert it to our socket type. It's nice to hear that someone else has experienced the same issue.
    I am not using it as a phone in Australia, just the ipod and wifi.

  • Can't update from version 2.0.0.9 and downloads newest version. Can't get on MZ webpage

    OS XP, using Internet explorer, Can't get on MZFF site to get to Help to check updates then download newest version of MZFF
    I am a novice at computers and since I had to uninstall Yahoo, my
    daughter told me to get Mozilla Firefox for a browser.

    Where are you trying to get Firefox from? Have you tried this site - http://www.mozilla.com
    There is a download link for the latest version of Firefox on that page.

  • I tryed to sync my brand new iPod to update it after I had everything setup and the iPod froze up and is stuck on the "Syncing with iTunes" screen and will not update, so now it won't do anything. What do I do?

    This really confuses me

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Belle Update "stuck" after the "Restore" step

    I've gone through the Belle update on my Nokia N8, and got as far as completing the "Restore" step. The on-screen menu says "please wait while the phone is restarted", but nothing is happening.
    The phone says "Phone will restart"    and it seems to be waiting for me to click on the "OK" right below it.
    I know I'm not supposed to touch the phone, but what do I do?  The update program hasn't changed in 15 minutes now.
    Did I just turn my phone into a "brick", or should I click the "OK" on the phone screen, or ???
    Any help would be very much appreciated. 

    Problem seems to be solved, thanks to Pablo:
    Possible solution for "Connection failed. Access denied" message after Belle update
    If you get a message "Connection failed. Access denied" and can´t connect to any access point (wireless - mobile) the reason could be that you installed an application that use a sniffer plugin to monitor your data usage, like SPB Wireless Monitor. 
    If you had installed SPB Wireless Monitor before belle upgrade and after the upgrade you lost the network connectivity, try this:
    close Nokia Suite (file->exit)
    Connect your phone to computer with USB cable in mass storage mode (Notification bar->USB->mass storage)
    In your computer, go to (phone drive letter):\Private and rename or delete these folders:
    20042D1D
    101f7989
    Close explorer, eject the drive and remove the USB cable.
    Reboot the phone.
    Configure your wireless network or try to connect using your mobile data plan. Should work now.
    Now you can open Nokia store and reinstall SPB Wireless Monitor
    If you have Symbian Anna and want to update to belle, uninstall any data monitor like SPB Wireless Monitor before updating.
    Pablo
    This might explain why someone suggested formatting the memory card - if SPB Wireless Monitor was installed to the memory card, formatting it would have fixed it I guess - but in my case I installed it to the "mass memory".
    THANK YOU PABLO ---  and to Nokia, I know it's not your fault, as it wasn't your code, but maybe you should suggest that people un-install SPB Wireless Monitor (and others???) and re-install only after the Belle update is completed..

  • IMac screen goes black after 1+ hours of use and we can't get out of this.

    I have a mid-2007 iMac.  When anyone is on the computer for approximately 1-1.5 hours, the screen goes black and we cannot get out of this.  There are no time restrictions or power-saver settings on.  Can anyone help me with this issue?

    You cannot do anything with the iPad until you do as instructed by the iPad and connect to iTunes on a computer.
    You probably need to restore the iPad and the only way to do that is via iTunes on a computer.
    Take it to an Apple Store and ask for help at a Genius bar or take it to a friend's house that is running iTunes on their computer and try to restore it.
    You will lose all of your data and settings now because you never backed the iPad up in the past.

  • Updating modem after many hours

    So my kin two has been in the "updating modem do not remove the battery" screen for a day now and doesnt seem to be doing anything.  I took out the battery, tryed the sync and nothing has worked. I took it to the store and they said there was nothing they could do and only option is to get a new phone.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? I think is **bleep** to have to pay for a new phone since we dont have insurance and they sold a defective piece of C%$p phone.

    Hello ihatekintwo,
    Thank you for sharing your concern with the community. I would like to investigate this issue further for you. May I ask that you send me a private message with your full name, mobile number, and a brief description of what happened before you had this error message on the device. I appreciate you patience and understanding on this issue. 

  • New software update is saying 23 hours to go and that it is 895MB.  Is this correct for the 6.1.3?

    Extremely slow software update is happening for my iphone.
    The software is 6.1.3 and it is 895MB.
    Time remaining is 23hrs - Is this normal?

    The size is correct, but the time is not.
    I assume you are trying to update over WiFi - this is not a good idea.  Plug your phone into your PC and perform the update via iTunes.
    Your WifI is probably a very slow link.
