Where do you live? I live in Abu Dhabi, in the UAE. I’m wondering if this problem is related to the internet service provider here – Etisalat is its name. I tried one proxy, but it doesn't work.

I'm trying to update my iPhone 4 through iTunes but says I'm not connected to the internet when I am.

Hello everyone,
I have the iPhone version 4.3.3 and I want to update to the latest iPhone software. With this version, I can only update through iTunes. When I plug in my phone to my computer and select the update option through iTunes, it sends an error messsage reading that I need to be connected to the internet to update my phone. My phone and my computer are both connected to wifi at the times I try to update, so I don't understand why I keep getting that message.
I've talked to my phone company and they said it probably has to deal with iTunes, but they were not sure. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but it still didn't work. Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on and also what I can do to update my phone?
Thank you so much!

If you are using a USB hub, don't. Connect directly to the computer. Disconnect all other USB devices except for keyboard and mouse.

HT4623 Has anyone had trouble installing 7.1 wirelessly on an ipad mini w/retina? I downloaded the update, but when I attempt to install, I get an error message saying that I am not connected to the internet when I know that I am!

It downloaded fine, but when I attempt to install it won't verify, saying that I am not connected to the internet when I know that I am! Tried on several wifi connections while plugged into power source. Any advice is appreciated!

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 drooping 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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Why does the "find my iphone" ap say i'm not connected to the internet when i clearly am?

I can see web pages, update facebook status, tweet, etc. but this ap says i'm not connected to the internet (wifi and Verizon LTE). Also, why does the podcast ap say its unable to authorize to automatically update my podcasts (which automatically download to my mac book pro every day without a problem)?

Go here:
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
and confirm that it's set to the correct country for your account. If it is, try signing out of your account and back in.
Hope this helps.

I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

Why is iTunes telling me I am not connected to the internet when I definately am connected. I cannot authorise after I downloaded iTunes??

After I downloaded iTunes and i requested me to authorise, it kept stating that I was not connected to the internet. I was and am connected to the internet. Why would this be happening?

Hello Hpenny,
This may be due to iTunes being unable to connect to the iTunes Store.
The following article provides information and troubleshooting steps that can help restore iTunes' connection to the iTunes Store.

Why does iTunes say it is not connected to the internet when the connection is active?

No problems running iTunes on Windows XP machine with Norton Internet Security.
Moved to new computer with Windows 7 - still running Norton Internet Security. iTunes does not start when iPhone4 is connected with USB cable. Worse problem is that all internet activity (check for updates, activate this computer, etc.) is halted with message that computer is not connected to the internet... but it is. All browser and email activity works right.
Do I have a Windows 7 setting problem, a Norton Internet Security setting problem, an iTunes setting problem?
Thanks in advance.

For the device connectivey issues try Andrei Cerbu's post here or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.
I suspect Norton's firewall is blocking iTunes. I can't tell you offhand where to look to tweak things.

My iPad mini won't download the 7.0.4 security update...keeps saying I'm not connected to the Internet. How do I fix this?

My iPad mini won't download the 7.0.4 security update. It just keeps telling me I'm not connected to the Internet. It's doing this to my gf's Ipad 2 as well. How do I fix it?

"7.0.4"? The current version of iOS is 7.0.6. Version 7.0.4 can no longer be downloaded or installed.

My Itunes say's im not connected to the internet when trying to update my iphone?

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

Why does Safari keep saying "it can't connect to the server" every time I try to access any sites?

I have the latest safari update for os x, which was working perfectly fine up until 3 days ago. Everytime I would try to access any site, safari would tell me it couldn't connect to the server, and I would have to refresh the page at least 5-10 times until I can access the site. I checked my internet, and it seems to be running perfectly. I also tried using Chrome and it had no problems accessing sites, too, so I know it's not my internet. :/
Is anyone else having the same problems?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

IPhoto 11 Version 9.2.1 Places does not work. Says I am not connected to the internet when I am!

Wanted to see if anyone could help with this issue I am having. Did a few searches but most of the problems I found related to older versions of iPhoto. When I click on Places it says that I am not connected to the internet when I clearly am connected. Anyone heard of this or have a solution? Thank you!

I'm afraid I don't have much to add other than to say this is happening to me too. However, it is not consistent. Sometimes I get iPhoto Places to connect and show location, and other times (on the same photo with gps tag) it will say not connnected. I too saw the earlier reports of this problem, and also that it was fixed in v8.0.1 of iPhoto.
Currently running iPhoto v9.2.1, and connecting via wifi.

☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list. Post the messages from the last installation attempt, starting from the time when you launched the Installer or Software Update.
