I am trying to down load 8.1.3 for my Ipad. The download through my PC is shown as needing 37 hours. I have a decent broadband connection so this seems wrong. Any ideas?
I am trying to update by Ipad through my PC. I have connected but it is so slow.. The predicted time is 37 hours for 1.3GB which is ludicrous.
My Broadband speed is over 7MBs so something is wrong.
I also tried to download ITunes 12.,1 through iTunes but this was also slow so I did it through the website which was 3 minutes all in.
My conclusion is a bad setting in iTunes somewhere. - but how to fix???
Thanks to you all.
Hi Travelling fool 101,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you were able to update the iPad but were eventually able to. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update - Apple Support
Download takes a long time, or you can't reach update server
iOS updates require a persistent Internet connection, and the time it takes to download the update will vary according to the size of the update and your Internet speed. You can use your device normally while downloading the iOS update, and iOS will notify you when you can install the update. To improve the speed of the download, avoid downloading other content.
Cheers,
Mario

Mail is set up and I can send e mails but since 1st of June I cannot receive, I have tried connection doctor everything seems fine, any ideas?
There are two entirely different paths involved here; SMTP for send and either POP or IMAP receive. Check your receive path. Confirm username, password and the POP or IMAP server identity. Also check directly with your mail provider, and ensure the POP or IMAP server is functioning and online, and the provider hasn't changed their particular POP or IMAP configuration requirements.

Hi I have mac os x 10.6.6 and need to update however keep getting the message " software update server ( 172.22.13.4 ) is not responding". My internet connections are all working. Any ideas how to solve this?
If you have enough room on the boot drive, head to System Preferences > Accounts and create another Admin Account, log out and into it and try your Software Update again.
If this doesn't work, connect a Ethernet cable to the router or modem (power off/on) and try again.
If this doesn't work then run through this list of fixes.

I have gotten results from, the down load will not start, to I get over 500MB of the 780MB than it stops and I lose it all. I have tried to do small blcks and pause, but whenever I pause the download it starts from the begining again. According to Itunes, my phone and Itunes are up to date. Does anyone have any ideas to help break up the download so I can get it in pieces and eventually have the full update to restore to?

Not to my knowledge...
If you are using windows... try this...
Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and try again...

My question mark and forward slash key have suddenly stopped working. Have I pressed something I shouldn't have. Any ideas what to do.

If they do nothing at all, double check system preferences/speech and make sure they have not somehow gotten set as the trigger for Text to speech or speech recognition, etc.
Also try an external keyboard. If it works ok, then your internal keyboard is probably damaged and needs repair or replacement. -
I have wi-fi in my home and it has always worked fine with my iPad. Then I went to Ireland and used the iPad there. Since I have been home, it won't work in my house. I can't get my wi-fi connecton. I took it to anothe location where I have logged in in the past, and it worked perfectly. Any ideas as to why I can't get a connection at home?
Thank you.Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

We are trying to down load apps and we keep getting an error after we put password in that we need to update date and time ?
I have checked calendar is correct and time on top of screen is correct?Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On. If that is set correctly - try a reset.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -

For some unknown reason, my Apple ID Password does not work when trying to down load IBooks, Nook books, or new Apps. Everything else seems to work. Any suggestions out their???
I appreciate the info and realize that the Nook App is not related to my Apple account but this too has stopped working. My situation first started with the Nook App not down loading and then has now spread to my IBook and new app downloads. I have checked into my ITunes account and the ID and password are correct and at times when I am asked to submit my Apple password such as setting up this Apple Support Community the ID and password work. My problem seems to be just with trying to use my ID and password when wanting to download new books or apps. I can go into the IBook, Nook, and App stores and seemingly download an item but when clicking on the new book or app nothing happens and I get a message that states it can not get into the ITunes store and it wants me to either try again or cancel. This message appears usually ten minutes after I have tried to make a purchase. At other times when I attempt to download a book or app I lose the screen and the IPad goes into the opening screen. Short of redoing my Apple account or deleting an app and attempting to reload the app (but this won't work because the App store won't load new apps) I don't have a clue what to do.

I am trying to down load I Tunes 11.1.4, but get error 7, windows error 126, MSVCR80.dll, i tried re install, any ideas?
Hello trilobyte8,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update. I recommend following the steps below:
Resolution
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
I understand that you have already uninstalled iTunes, but when you get to this step, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step. You can find the full article here:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open

TS1702 I am trying to down load EARs but the down load sign is off
Hi friends...I am trying to down load App EARs but the down load sinfn is off. Any solution.Thanks
It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

My five year old grandson was laying Temple Run and tried to down load extra Coins. The IPAD froze up so he kept hitting the button to get his coins. I ended up with a forty dollar bill for coins. Is there any way of geting this corrected?
In app purchases can be restricted in Settings/General/Restrictions.
For all other things, try to contact iTunes support, maybe they can help.
