I'm trying to update my iPhone with the new update. Using Macbook Pro, Lion software. It keeps saying "connection error timed out". What's my problem?

Trying to get the update. Appreciate assistance!

Disable any antivirus and firewall software installed on your computer. They can interfere with the update process.

  • I updated my iPhone with the new update..and afterwards it turned off and instead of turning back on it tells me to plug it into iTunes..then iTunes tells me my phone is in recovery mode and I need to restore it..is there anything I can do w/o restoring?

    I updated my iPhone with the new update..and then it turned off...instead of turning back on it tells me to plug it into iTunes..and when I do iTunes tells me that my phone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored..is there anything I can do without restoring it?

    Same thing happened here ~ tech guy at a local authorized Apple repair store said it had something to do with improper backup from which the restore would be made. Still have a phone that asks to be connected to Itunes but won't do anything else . . . frustrated.

    Try taking it to the nearest Apple Store. They should have computers there that they can use to get your iPhone out of recovery mode. Make an appointment first.

  • HT204150 I updated my iPhone with the new iOS6 & ALL my contacts were deleted! WTH?

    I recently updated my iPhone with the iOS6 update & all of my CONTACTS have been deleted? What gives?

    Restore from your backup. You do have a backup from prior to when you performed the update, right?

  • HT4865 i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • ITunes will not open on my iPhone with the new update 10/18/13

    iTunes will not open on my iPhone after the new update 10/18/13. It opens on my iPad that also has the new update; just not my iPhone.

    OK, so what troubleshooting steps have you taken?  Have you taken the ones recommended in the User Guide?  Exactly what HAVE you done thus far to help solve your problem?

  • Every time I try and update my iphone 4 to ios 7.1 in iTunes 11.1.5 it says "connection reset" even when there is no problem with my connection

    I have an iPhone 4. I use iTunes 11.1.5 on my Mac. I am trying to update to ios 7.1 through iTunes, but every time I do that, I get a "connection reset" error, even when I know there has been no problem with my connection.
    The exact error message is as follows:
    "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "Anne's iPhone". The network connection was reset.
    Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."
    I have checked several times. There is no problem with the connection, and I have tried to download the software several times today.
    Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

    Just managed to successfully download the update, having retried five or six times. I did unplug my phone while the download was taking place (had asked iTunes to download only, not to update) -- suspect this had no bearing on it whatsoever, and that persistence is the only way here.

  • My phone will not restart after updating it today with the new update provided by apple. My carrier is verizon

    What do I need to do to fix this problem. I tried to install this new update and now my phone is frozen with the white apple symbol on a black screen and doesn't do anything

    Updates cannot be uninstalled.
    Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore via iTunes.

  • How do I get my data reloaded after updating my iphone with the new IOS 6.)/

    I downloaded the IOS 6.O updated for my iphone.  It backed up my data, but I can not get it to restore it.  My music and apps were removed.  When I try to sync it in itunes an error comes up that this iphone is not allowed to sync.  What do I need to do?

    Music and apps are not part of the backup that itunes performs at all.
    You should be transferring all purchases to your computer regularly.  Did you fail to do this?
    If you failed to put your music on your computer, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    What exactly does the error message say?

  • I went to update my iTunes with the new update, but something went wrong..?

    Alright, so... I opened iTunes and saw that I had an update available for iTunes. I think It was 7. something, but now I kind of forget. Anyway, I downloaded and installed the update, but in order to complete it I had to restart my computer.
    So, I restarted the computer and when it loaded back up, I was surprised to see that it took me to the "Mac OS X Setup Assistant" window, where it said:
    "In just a few steps, you can register your Apple product, set up your computer, and sign up for a .Mac membership, which includes a powerful collection of software services specifically designed for your Mac."
    And then it asked me what country I lived in and yadda yadda yadda. So basically, it's asking me to re-setup my computer from the very beginning.
    I tried filling in all the information to setup my mac again, but when I was done everything and all of the information was filled in and I pressed the "Ok/Done" or whatever you want to call it button, it took me back to the beginning to fill out all of the information again...
    Can someone please tell me what is wrong with my Macbook?!

    Hello Lazyboy7,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you are getting an error message from iTunes when trying to manually backup with your USB cord.
