Why can't I connect to the update server? If I manually download SW, how do I update phone or ipad since it is not in iTunes?
Thanks

I assume all of your network connections are OK, you can get to the internet and that you aren't blocked by something like an enterprise firewall. Are those assumptions correct? . My experience has been that from time to time, the update server get's "maxxed out", and if you try later it will work.
