I have been trying for weeks to download update 10.7.5 and cannot do so. I do get a message at the end - "connection reset by peer". Can anyone shed any light on why I cannot download this update and what the message may mean? Thanks.

I have the same problem with my iPad mini. I have done almost all updates of my iOS devices OTA.
I never update issues before.
Also iPad 2 and iPhone 5 just worked fine.
Only now my iPad mini struggles with the update. Did a factory reset too.
And now have iOS 7.0.2 (11A501) on an iPad Model MD543FD/A.
World prefer OTA instead of iTunes.
Thank you for any help. -
I'M TRYING TO UPDATE TO IOS 6 BUT I KEEP GETTING ERROR MESSAGE sOFTWARE UPDATE fAILED: AN ERROR OCCURRED DOWNLOADING IOS 6
I Tried for three days to download iOS 6 and kept getting error 1403. I finally went to the apple store and they couldn't figure it out either.
I finally got it to download and all I did different from the other 100 times was I went into settings and on the Bluetooth setting I put NO. Not sure if that's what did it but that was the only thing different that I did. -
Software Update Failed. An error occurred downloading iOS 6.
I have been trying to get the latest software update on my iPhone 4S 16GB for a few days. All of my apps are closed, iTunes version is current, and no other apps need updating. I am on WIFI and I just backed up my phone again; however, the software update will not work. The "estimated time remaining" fluctuates by random amounts as it tries to update as well (it may say 1 minute, then 15 minutes, then 2, then 8 - regardless of what the blue progress bar shows).
Here is the error message I receive: "Software Update Failed. An error occurred downloading iOS 6." Throughout the day today, I've also received a message stating, "cannot find update" - or something similar (I can't recall it verbatim).
What is causing this? Please help with detailed instructions. Thank you.Same problem...

Software Update Failed An error occurred downloading iOS 8.1.3
I can not get the phone to update the OS? I tried different wifi points, and still no luck. I tried this at least 6 times with the same result. It looks to download, and then says it is 'preparing' for a while, and then it pukes out the message "Software Update Failed An error occurred downloading iOS 8.1.3". Anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks!
I've made a blog post on this error "

Software update failed An error occured downloading iOS 8.0
I still trying to update my iPhone5S and iPhone4S but to no avail
What to do after receiving error messages:
A. via mobile:
"Software update failed
An error occurred downloading iOS 8.0"
B. via iTunes...won't even proceed... saying my connection Timed out
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone*** 's
The network connection was reset.
Make sure your network settings are correct
and your network connection is active, or try again later."
Note:
- My connection was working perfectly well during those numerous attempts (probably more than 50 times).
- iPad was updated after 7 attempts
Question:
How can I update the 2 iPhone?
How can I proceed?Same issue here with iPad Mini. What should I do??

I am having difficulties in downloading iOS 8.0.2 to my iPhone 4. It is giving me the following message: software update failed. An error occurred downloading iOS 8.0.2. Please help!
very good. You also had posted originally on the Using Apple Support Communities forum (dedicated to "How do I use this forum and find My Stuff in it?"). I had already asked our gracious Hosts to move it to Using iPhone where it now resides and will likely get more prompt attention. In the meantime, you might consider browsing and/or searching Using iPhone for similar issues as your own.
best luck

Why I cant update my iPad3 to iOS 6? Its always : "an error occured downloading iOS 6.0.1"
Why I cant update my iPad3 to ios6? It always says: "an error occured downloading iOS 6.0.1"
Is this bcoz of wifi connection or what? Ty!Did you try updating with the iPad directly?
You need Wi-Fi connection and power supply from the wall socket.
Or through the computer iTunes?
If computer iTunes, make sure your anti-virus and firewall are off before you try. -
