I can't update my ipad2 to ios5. After 2 hours of what looks like a successful download and processing is about to begin, I lose connection and get message network timed out check network settings and connection, but I am still connected via wifi. Any ideas?

If you are using windows...
Try temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus software and try again...

Ever since I updated what looked like iTunes 10.6.1 my computer has been corrupted with Malware, which has filled up all available space on my hard drive. What do I do to get rid of the Malware?

First, reboot. That will temporarily free up some space. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB free for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data.
Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.
Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root.
First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. No matter what happens, you should be able to restore your system to the state it was in at the time of that backup.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal.

HT201210 I can't update my IPAD2 to IOS 6, it fails and I get a message "could not backup the IPAD because the backup could not be saved to this computer--I have tried different computers? Please, anyone have this same issue and figured out a fix? Thank

I can't update my IPAD2 to IOS6. I've tried through ITUNEs. I get a message after IOS6 is downloaded and extracted, to the effect of "could not backup the IPAD2 because the backup could not be saved to this computer." I've tried directly from the IPAD, and by connecting through ITUNES to two separate computgers. Can anyone help? Thank you.

However after part of the Itune update completed a message came up on the screen
saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.
Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

Remove Admin's pass request on Network Settings...any idea?

Hello,
I am going mad with this question/problem!
I need to have one user account that has access to network setting without being asked for Admin's credential.
Now, i am using Parental Control to limit this standard user just to see Display & Network settings, but, while with the Display Setting there is no request with Network Settings there is!
I installed also the Server Adminstration kit, i saw that with Workgroup Manager i found many useful thing like adding user to differnts groups but nothing about "suppress" this passwork request.
ANY IDEA???
Please!

sorry, I'm not a big expert on modifying /etc/authorization as you can really mess things up there.
*You don't want to do this* because you need to change system.preferences right in /etc/authorization. This affects not only the network preferences but some other preferences like sharing, security and startup disk. Do you really want to do this? sounds quite dangerous to me. I definitely wouldn't. I don't think there is any way to change the right for network preferences only.
as to how to modify this right, as i said, I'm no expert but the following will work.
First, I suggest you make a backup of the existing /etc/authorization file. Then
open /etc/authorization with TextWrangler. modify the section
<key>system.preferences</key>
<dict>
<key>allow-root</key>
<true/>
<key>class</key>
<string>user</string>
<key>comment</key>
<string>Checked by the Admin framework when making changes to certain System Preferences.</string>
<key>group</key>
<string>admin</string>
<key>shared</key>
<false/>
</dict>
You can change admin to staff.This will let any user on the system to unlock system preferences. Or you can make a new group. Include yor main admin user and the user you want to give extra rights to. then put the name of that group instead of admin in the above.

Why I can't update my IPAD2 to IOS5? I just brought it from computer centre/...

Had the exact same issue with an iPad 1 running 4.2 and not willing to upgrade to 4.3.x, not 5.0. Here is what AppleCare recommended and worked for me:
1) Try downloading iTunes directly from the apple web site -- do not use the 'check for updates' option within iTunes.
2) If you are presented with repair/remove, then you are running the latest -- run repair anyway.
3) Connect iPad, select iPad in iTunes, and try 'Check for updates'
If still no luck, do the upgrade manually:
4) Make sure iTunes is logged in to same account used on iPad. Transfer all purchases.
5) Do a backup.
6) Download iOS 5 manually to your desktop: http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/041-8357.20111012.DTOrM/iPad1,1_5.0_9A334_Rest ore.ipsw
7) SHIFT-RESTORE in iTunes and point to the downloaded file. After installed, restore your most recent backup.

Hi Jason
I was getting the same behavior after Apple support had me delete some plist files to get Airplay going. I was also getting the following error:
the error occurred while processing a command of type 'writesettings' in the plug-in 'server vpn'
I went into ~/Library/Preferences/ and /Library/Preferences/ and deleted every plist contating the word server. I had to re-set up my server (meaning walk through some intial steps) but all of my settings were still there after that and everything started working again.
Just a thought, obviously try at your own risk but it worked for me.

Today Firefox auto-updated; thereafter, secure websites have displayed a screenfull of what looks like code, and for some websites (MS Outlook web app), the site is overwritten with code text.

It looks like a display issue.

Starting with this, you have errors in your CSS code.

HT4623 I haven't got an option for software update? How can I update my ipad2

I haven't got an option for software update? How can I update my ipad2 to ios5.1

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Help! Just updated my Ipad2 to IOS5 and have now lost 90% of my music!

I updated my Ipad2 to IOS5 by linking up to my itunes on my Windows pc. It appears that all music I'd uploaded to itunes from CD's over the years has gone, all purchased items are still there though.
I've lost about 10,000 tracks - is there any way I can retrieve these? I've tried to restore from a previous backup but all the files have disappeared from previous itunes libraries too!
HELP!

The tracks are showing in iTunes on my pc but won't play - it says it can't locate the file. When I check in my system iTunes folder, none of the cd import files are there.
Have tried syncing to iPad again but only purchased tracks will sync. I get an error message which says 100+ songs could not sync as file cannot be found?
Any ideas? I'm stumped!

Were the apps on your computer's iTunes when you started the update process ?
As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your backup and see if that restores them and their settings/content - a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings, so for the restore to work fully iTunes needs access to the apps so that it can restore them.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

HT4972 Can I update my iPad to iOS5

Can I update my iPad to IOS5?

Any iPad can be updated to iOS 5. You need to use a computer and iTunes - the latest version of iTunes is advised.
What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings - along with other items - so make sure you backup first.
If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
Transfer purchases.
