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

When I updated my ipods touch os version it wiped out all my software I had paid for, my pictures, music, videos, contacts everything. What a rip off. I would just go back to my last version, but I'm sure that wouldn't help. What a racket, make people buy software then put out a new version and wipe there system so they have to buy the software again. Anyone have any idea's?
You can redownload iTunes pruchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
The iPod backup that iTunes makes during every sync and and as the a early step of an USB update does not contain synced media like apps and music. It has aloways been that way. If rhe synced media is not in your iTunes library when you do the restore it can't be synced to the iPod during a latter part of the update. See:

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...

Anyone know how to fix this problem..... I am trying to update and download the latest version for my phone and it gets all the way to the end and says network timed out error 3259 or something. I have tried a so many times and get the same answer. I have restarted the computer, internet, etc. NOTHING. HELP!!!
Are you doing this over a wireless network. This happened a long time ago when we had DSL. I got sick of it and went to broadband thru our cable company.
If you are using wireles router, use a cable and connect your computer via the cable to the modem or wireless router if you have a location for the cable upon the wireless router. I think it is a cat 5 cable that connects the computer to your modem or wireless router. This way you Internet should not time out.
I hope this helps you. It is hard to identify the issue not knowing your Internet connect setup. Some modems and wireless routers have more Port options. -
Unable to update my software version on Nokia 5800
Hello Friends,
Ever found yourself in a situation where you are unable to update your software version...???
My current software version on my 5800 is v 20.0.012 and the software version date is 26-01-2009. I am unable to update it when I try to - It checks for updates, but then, it says no updates available - Kindly help
Thanks in advance!Is your phone network branded? Firmware updates for network branded phones have to approved by the network before they are released. Some networks are very slow to approve them and sometimes they don't bother unless someone chases them, So if your phone is branded, ring your network and give em hell.

Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Also when I try to sink my mini with my iTunes account it says you cannot sync because the sync session failed to start.
It sounds like to me you're trying to sync using the computer.
Try these things and see if it helps before you try your next syncing session. If none of the things below work then you might consider trying to sync using iCloud only.
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

My sister and I each have an ipod touch. We use the same computer and itunes but each have our own apple id. Everytime I want to update an app on my ipod it asks for my sisters apple id login!? help!
When it asks for another ID on an App Update, it means that the application was purchased under your sister's ID but downloaded to your device from the iTunes library that you share. Even though you both have your own Apple IDs, since you are syncing on the same computer, you are using the same iTunes library.
Whoever purchased the app is forever tied to it, and you can only have one version of a particular app in a single library....
Does that make sense?
Cheers,

I purchased a refurbished iBook G4-Version 10.4.11 and everytime that I try to purchase anything on iTunes or change something in my account, I click "done" and it says that I have timed out, when I'm on there for less than a minute. Hence, none of my purchases have gone through.What could be causing this?
You need to use a newer Mac OS X version. A G4 can be upgraded to 10.5.8(if desired, buy a retail DVD from a source such as Amazon or eBay), but you'll likely find it more cost-effective to buy a secondhand Intel Mac.

UNABLE TO UPDATE NEW SOFTWARE VERSION IN MY NOKIA ...
Please help me!i would like very much to watch online movies via youtube but i cant,when i search for new software updates on my phone,it says no new software update available.what should i do,i once updated a new software of xpress music on my nokia and i was surely watching movies on youtube before it was attacked by some viruses,when i flashed it,it came to its original software and now i am unable to watch online movies!please help me what should i do to enable video streaming on my phone?
The Nokia 111 is unfortunately not capable of playing streaming video from the web, so it will not play YouTube videos.
If your phone reports no available software then it means that you already have the latest version. Series 40 phones like these have a simple Java-based operating system into which changes cannot be made without the user's explicite consent, and so they are not subsceptible to viruses
