IOS 5 update failed Error 1. How do I fix this?!

I've tried to restore my phone at least ten times and get error 1 every time. I've googled ways to get around it but none of them work. Anybody else have this problem?

I had exactly the same thing and after numerous calls to apple support I was advised to uninstall iTunes, uninstall myafire wall / virus software (I had AVG installed) download and install iTunes again then try to restore again and Voila, it took a while but perfect first time and I just reinstalled AVG afterwards.

  • "Can't connect to iPad Software Update Server" Error. How Can I Fix This?

    I keep getting an error saying, "The iPad cannot be updated at this time because the iPad software update server could not be contacted or in temporarily unavailable.", whenever I try to update to 3.2.2 or restore my iPad. This has been happening for a couple of months now. Can someone please help me!? Apple only addresses this issue for Windows. And have searched all of google and can't find anything.

    Ahha! I have just overcome this problem myself.
    Being a highly tech savvy I immediatly assumed that this was a most complex and difficult problem to overcome. So naturally I started looking at things like port 80 and internet proxy options.
    But alas, it was my anti-virus which caused this error! A most dispicable fiend.
    Solution:
    I have Avast anti-virus so I will tell you how I disabled mine.
    Open up the program and its friendly user interface, go to Settings at the top. In the newly opened Settings window go to the left and chose Troubleshoot from the nice little list at the bottom and then in the check box area that has appeared uncheck the Avast defence module. Now hit OK / APPLY.
    Now you may close Avast completely. (Since exitting out only hides it in the background)
    Hit control+alt+delete and open the Task panel.
    Scroll across from programs -> processes,
    Now find the AvastUI.exe or something along those lines and end that process.
    Avast! It is now closed! and you may Restore/Update at will!

  • I am unable to update any add-ons at all. Every time I try and install an add-on or even the new "show hidden add-ons" add-on, I get a server error. How do I fix this?

    You may have triggered some intermittent database issues but it should be running smooth by now. Let us know if you still see server errors.
    Also, if your addons appear to go missing after updating there is a workaround http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/09/28/issue-discovered-with-firefox-add-on-upgrades/ And there is a 7.0.1 fix on its way.

    If the reset does not work
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • On my iPad 2 I can nolonger view maps.  It says there are JavaScript errors.  How can I fix this problem?

    On my iPad 2 I can nolonger view maps.  It says there are JavaScript errors.  How can I fix this problem?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

    My computer is saying it can't find the file 'iTunes64.msi' when I try to update or redownload iTunes how do I fix this? I've tried just about everything I can think of. I am using a dell laptop running windows 7 and have tried changing the file location to run the update in all of my iTunes files as well as when I've tried reinstalling it.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I got a new apple iD so when i try to update my apps it wont change the last one that i had so i cant update my apps. How do i fix this?

    I got a new apple iD so when i try to update my apps it wont change the last one that i had so i cant update my apps. How do i fix this?

    - Go to Settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
