I'm trying to download iOS 5.0.1 and my connection times out

I use Windows 7 with my iTunes and I've gotten this error with my 4th generation iTouch as well as my wife's new iPhone 4S.  For the iTouch, I've gotten this error ever since this new update has been available.  Not sure how to fix.  I have updated my iTunes to 10.5.
Thanks.

disable your firewall/security software.

    Your Device is in Recovery Mode and needs to be connected to the Computer you Usually Sync with.
    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    See Here  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    You may need to try this More than Once...
    Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps..
    Once you have Recovered your Device...
    Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Upgrading iOS 4.0 to 4.1 (Connection time out error)

    Hello any help will be highly appreciated..
    I currently have a 3rd gen iPod Touch 32gb, with iOS 4.0.2 installed and working perfectly. I am now pestered to download and update to the newest version 4.1 every time I sync my iPod, which I have no problem doing..
    Problem is every time I agree to download this update iTunes downloads the update then when it has just finished downloading (remains in the "downloads" in itunes folder) appears that it is processing the download, after about 4 minutes of it finsihing downloading and appearing to be processing it gives me an error saying there is a connection time out issue, to check my internet connection and try again.
    I have tried at least 1 dozen,or more times to do this. It has done the same thing every time.
    It won't let me restore my iPod because when i try to do so it asks me to "Update and Restore" which it cant update! so its pretty frustrating.
    The iPod works fine no problems, it just comes to when trying to download this update.
    Is there anything I can do? Would I be able to try and update it on another computer?
    Thank you for any assistance, im just sick of seeing the "a new ipod update is a vailable, download now?" pop-up every time I plug in the iPod.

    Hello!
    Been encountering the same problem for two days, drove me crazy! Tried everything, including disabling the firewall and antivirus but nothing worked, so here is what worked with me:
    *If you use Internet Explorer, do the following:*
    *First close iTunes then go to Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Advanced Tab and then scroll until you get to the ''Security'' section, uncheck the box that says: Check for server certificate revocation* and now launch iTunes and try again.* Hope this works for you as well!

  • Tried to download iOS 8 but failed and now phone won't go on stuck on plug into I tunes screen

    Trows to download iOS on the laptop but said failed and keeps failing but phone won't do anything now stuck on plug in to I tunes help please

    hey guys I was in the phone to apples for over hour and a half and he couldn't fix it, so I took it to my local stormfront shop and he plugged it in and it restored straight away and had the iOS 8 on it, it's very common he was telling me and sometimes windows interacts with the download for apple updates and causes the phones to go into basically limp mode, best to plug in to an Apple Mac etc

  • My IPAD2 failed to download ios 8 via wifi and itunes

    I tried to download IOS 8 via wifi and I got an error message that the download failed.  I tried to download via ITunes and got the error message network failure. I did this numerous times both ways.  My Iphone 5S downloaded fine via wifi.

    I have similar problem on an iPad. I have FIOS with 83 meg download speeds. According to apple my download will take 32 hours. They are having a problem and are not addressing it. This is the third day I have been getting this problem. How do we get apple to tell us what is going on. I am willing to cooperate but need to know what to do.

  • HT1620 I have been trying to download iOS 6.1 on my ipad.  It takes between 6-8 hours to download and after about 4-5 hours it send me an error message and cannot download. How can I delete this downloa? it will not let me download any apps

    I have been trying to download iOS 6.1 on my ipad.  After its been downloading for about 4 hours, I receive a message that there is an error and cannot download.  How can I delete this download from my settings?  I tried downloading other apps, but it will not let me unless I download iOS 6.1

    What iOS are you currently running?
    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.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    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).

  • I tried to download ios 7.0.3. my phone has a picture of a cord and itunes telling me to plug into itunes. when i did it wouldnt let me do anything. i tried to reset it and it wouldnt. what do i do

    I tried to download IOS 7.0.3 to my iphone 4 and a screen popped up that shows a cord with an arrow to itunes. i connected it to itunes and a little screen popped up with my phone on it. The only option on their for me to click was cancel or reset. I decided to reset it and when it said it was finished a screen popped up on my computer that said that something was preventing the download from happening. I did this 3 times. Nothing has worked.I unplugged it and held the lock and home button together and an apple came up, so i did it again and it told me to plug into itunes again. Its been like this since yesterday so please help me.

    it says " itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes" so i restore it and after it gets finished it says " the iphone :iphone" could not be restored. the device cannot be found" but ive used this itunes since i got this phone.

  • My iPhone will not get past the connect to iTunes screen. I tried downloading iOS 8.0.2 and it downloaded but then cancelled because of an error. My iPhone will not do anything at all.

    So my iPhone 5s will not let me get past the connect to iTunes page.
    Thursday night I went to go download iOS 8.0.2 and it said I needed to connect to iTunes. So I plugged my cord into my laptop and it opened up iTunes and proceeded to tell me that I needed to update and restore. So I clicked it and it began updating. After over a day, and many different attempts, it finally downloaded all the way through and then said it was processing the item. After this, there was a said error and I had to restart the update. I haven't been able to use my phone at all and it will not let me get past the connect to iTunes page. Please help.

    I was able to restore my phone!!!
    I called Apple and they said there was nothing more I could do. I called my carrier Verizon and was able to get my computer to recognize my device after trying this-
    Solution:
    After trying EVERYTHING this is the ONLY thing that worked-
    I took the USB connector cable out of the USB port it was in, and tried another one on the otherside of my laptop and iTunes was able to discover my phone in recovery mode. My phone was reset and everything is fine ( thank gosh for backup copies!)

  • For the past few hours I have been trying to download ios 7.0.4 from itunes onto my iPhone after trying many times it would give me a error saying network failed! then i tried to download Ios 7.0.4 manually and then put it on but it keeps failing?

    I venture to say you have a Windows PC.
    If so, before beginning the download try temporarily disabling your antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required with the insecure OS your computer is running.

  • Trying to download ios 6.1 on ipod touch but i get error -23

    Can someone help me ?
    Just got my ipod back but its running ios 4.1 and im trying to download ios 6.1 but I get an error -23

    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
