HT4097 im trying to update my ipad i have all backed up and am ready i start it last about 30 min and tell me that it is timing out on internet

I've been trying to update my ipad all day, and it keeps stopping with an error that reads, "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad 'Becki's iPad.'  The network connection timed out." My question is, how can I prevent this from happening again? My ipad is currently running on 4.3.3 software version.

If using windows...
Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and try again...

  • HT201210 I tried to update my iPad 2 with the iOS 6.0.  Now I am stuck in restore mode and keep getting an unkown error 3014 and sometimes -1.  What in the world can I do?

    I tried to update my iPad 2 with the iOS 6.0.  Now I am stuck in restore mode.  I get "unknown" errors 3014 and sometimes -1.  Any ideas?

    Try a hard reset: hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

  • I have been trying to update my iPad to IOS5 ALL DAY LONG!

    It stays on "backing up" for hours. I've cancelled and started over 4 times since 10am. Help! It took overnight to update my iphone 4 to the ios5, but it's not moving past "backing up" for the iPad at all.  It is now 11:51pm, 12 hours I've been trying to update my iPad. After I cancelled, I rebooted the computer each time then started over. It's getting ridiculous. I hope someone can help me with this! Please and Thank you.

    Um, this makes no sense.  The binary is already on the device, it came directly from Apple so I'm not sure where the hold up is.  I guess it depends on what is exactly "Verifying update ..." is.  I always believed it was about checking to ensure the binary was proper; not sure why it has to call back to Apple servers in that case.
    It's super annoying.  Apple really needs to fix this problem.  Especially when one has to leave and needs to take their devices with them...
    Last time this happened, all I had to do was connect to iTunes and the issue cleared out immediately and updated.

  • I am unable to update my software version on my iPod touch. It gets to the very end and tells me that my session timed out. What should I do?

    Every time I try and update my software version for my iPod touch from version 4.2.1 to version 4.3.5 I get within .5 MB (409.5 of 409.6MB) to the end and an error pops up telling me that my network connection has timed out so that the update could not be completed. I start the nursing program next week and need to download books onto my iPod, but it will not let me download the updated versions until my software is updated. I have tried restoring my iPod but when I restore it it says I have to download new software at the same time, therefore I can't even restore it. I just tried resetting my iPod and erasing all data as well as uninstalling iTunes and downloading it again and it still wont work. What do I do? I need to update it so it is ready for school in a week. Any advice? I have tried calling but as I understand I would have to pay for anyone to help me and I really don't want to do that until I have to.

    Hi Jen.  My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse.  Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too.  Now to the problem at hand.  I have the same problem.  I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade.  Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade.  But I'm sure other factors are involved.  Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem:  What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it.  Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade.  Hope this works.   Charlie

  • I have tryed to download adobe flash player and it tells me that it is timed out,what do I do?

    Can some one help me with my question? I have been trying to download it for 2 days. My kids can not even get on our world.

    If the download is hanging/timing out, I'd recommend download and installing the appropriate stand alone installers that you can get here:

  • TS3274 after updating my iPad i have no sound

    after updating my ipad i have no sound

    Do you get volume in any apps e.g. in Music and Videos but not in other apps and notifications ? If you do then have you got notifications muted ? Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If you don't get sound in any apps then have you tried a soft-reset to see if you get sounds after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. If that doesn't fix it then do you get sound via headphones - if you do then you coul try inserting/removing headphones and see if the fixes it

  • I was trying to update my ipad operating system and I thought it was done but when I unplugged it from my computer the ipad has the apple logo and a long hollow oval under the logo and I can't get anything to work.  Any suggestions?

    I was trying to update my ipad operating system and I thought it was done.  When I disconnected it from my computer the ipad went blank then the apple logo appeared midscreen with an elongated oval across the screen under it.  Now nothing on the ipad works.  I think it was backed up on my computer but I can't find anything that will allow me to sync the two or regain functionality on my ipad.  Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    I would put the ipad in recovery mode and redo the update, once that is done you could restore the ipad from your backup and you would not lose any data.

  • HT4972 Problems when I tried to update my IPAD 1 to iOS 5.1.1

    I tried to updated my IPAD 1 to the most current iOS 5.1.1 update and now my IPAD has frozen.  I even restored the IPAD twice and it never goes back to the startup screen.  It is just locked up showing the apple and the progress bar which did not move in over 8 hours of waiting.  I am not sure what to do next since I try to reboot the IPAD and it just goes back to the screen with the Apple and the progress bar that doesn't move.  Does anyone have an idea of what to do?  Now I can't do anything with it.
    Thanks!

  • When trying to update my iPad 2 to iOS 7 I keep getting the message that it has stopped because the file is full.  There is plenty of room on the iPad.  It also says to check the settings.  What do I do now?

    When trying to update my iPad on iTunes I keep getting a message that the download has stopped because the file is full.  There is plenty of space on the iPad.  Also, the message says to check the settings.  What am I supposed to check in the settings?  What do I do now?

    I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
    Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
    No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.

  • 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.
