Ios 7 update keeps failing, how do i stop it from failing?

I recently got an iphone 5 like 2 weeks ago but it came with ios 6, i've been trying to download ios 7 but it keeps failing halfway. So, I tried doing it from itunes and it still failed. I've tried about 10 times and it's still failing. How do I stop it?

Hello alyssa268
If you are getting an error code when trying to update, check it against the article below to resolve it, as it could be an issue with security software or even a USB connection issue.

When updating Flash Player, how do I stop McAfee from installing?

Flash Player updates automatically reinstall McAfee and as this conflicts with my own security system I don't want it to automatically install but don't know how to stop it. Can someone help?

There's a checkbox BEFORE you download Flash Player, that prevents the download and install of McAfee. Uncheck it and it won't download.

How can I update iTunes when the update keeps failing?

It could just be that there are a lot of people trying to download at the same time Judith, I had a similar issue when iOS 7 was initially released - it took me about 4-5 attempts to download it.

Why updates keep failing since 10.9.2 to 10.9.4 (blank screen)?

I'm IT manager with 60+ Apple computers (mostly iMac and laptops) all running Mavericks and since 10.9.2, the automatic system updates keep failing on a few of my computers (10-12 computers out of 60). Users launch the system updates when they leave office by the night and when they come back next morning, login screen is black and there's only a moving cursor! No matter if you reboot, safe boot, verbose or EVEN reinstall OS (I tried it once), it's still the black login screen.
This problem is highly discussed on the web and there's an easy fix to force update to continue and succeed... but as IT manger I am very tired to fix manually several computer every time Apple release a system update!! For people who's wondering, the fix is to power off computer, restart in safe mode (shift key), then type your admin account, hit TAB and type your password within the black screen then after a few try the display will light up and update will continue and succeed after a final reboot.
I am just wondering why updates keeps failing since 10.9.2, also in 10.9.3 and still in 10.9.4... it's not happening on specific Mac model/year and my computers are not "ghosted" (restored) from disk image on each other... there's no link between the computers who's failing and those who succeed to update!! They are in different department of the business and they are not having same software installed. Few are for office work (Ms-Office) and other are graphic design (Adobe) or video. Almost all users are non-admin but a few are admin and both admins and non-admins are failing!
If you have some hints for me, I'll be very appreciated since I lost so much time to manually relaunching the update. Thx!!

The article is quite interesting. Quite a Mea Culpa from Apple!
Translated, the article says -- if you get any of these errors, iTunes and/or IOS have corrupted your device to the point where it cannot be recovered. You must reinitialize (i.e. restore from backup) your device. -- excetp that the first step "Copy your backup" is less than informative or useful.
Under OSX, the mentioned location contains nothing but a bunch of files named with a string of digits.
Yes, I know what they represent and how to translate them -- howver, I pitty joe-user with no experience with OSX.
The bulk of the article is for Windows systems. Very little information in that article applies to OSX.
The funny, but sad, thing is the first thing they tell you to do is to update OSX and iTunes and security software -- when in fact that is what cause the problem in the first place. Granted the articles pre-date the OSX/iTunes updates which caused the problem.
However, all of that blather ignored -- the article does NOT address my problem.
Unless it really does.
I have no issues (apparently) with successfully backing up my iPhone. At least iTunes claims that it is being successful.
What is failing is the second half -- the Sync.
OF course, that is if you belive iTunes -- which, according to the /Library/Logs/MobilBackup/MobilBackup.log, has in fact NOT happened now since January!
Very interesting.
Thanks for your suggestion.
However, I continue to hunt.

Since updating to ios 6 messages that are being sent to me are also coming through on my husbands phone. how do i stop this from happening?

since updating my iphone 4s with ios6 messages that are being sent to me are also being sent to my husbands iphone4. how do I stop this from happening?

Do you have separate apple Ids? If not, set up a new Id for one of you. Ios 6 uses the apple Id to send messages across devices, that may be the issue you are having.

IOS 7 Mail keeps crashing when I try to open a new message. How do I stop it from crashing?

In the last 24 hours after switching to iOS 7, Mail has crashed on me 3 or 4 times when tapping on the mail icon in the tray. How do I stop this from happening. I have an iPad 2 16GB.

All the suggestions posted were valid ideas, but they didn't help in the end. I finally had to restore the iPad. First, I tried clearing up space, and that didn't work, then I deleted all my e-mail acounts and that didn't work. So, in preparation, I deleted all e-mail accounts, then I turned off photo syncing from iTunes (from my iPhoto account where I had about 10 GB of photos synced), then I backed up this configuration to my iMac via iTunes. Then I followed procedures in this kb article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 except I restored from the backup when asked. I manually re-entered all my e-mail accounts (I have a lot) and Mail was working perfectly now. Then I re-synced a limited subset of the photos I had synced before, and all is fine. I think the only problem I really had was a corrupted iOS Mail app, and luckily I was able to solve the issue with a only factory reset and restore from backup!

How to keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod
Another Easier Alternative:
While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys in Windows (CMD + Option keys on a Mac). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes. The iPod will then appear in the iTunes source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto-sync and then you can release the keys. This action may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
You can then right-click on the iPod icon in iTunes source column and select iPod Options, then check the box that says Manually manage songs and playlists. You can now manage your library without losing any songs on the iPod.
If connecting to a
i different computer
than the iPods Home Computer, iTunes will ask you if you want to update your iPod and give you an opportunity to opt out. This will not happen if you connect to the Home computer iTunes will auto-sync without warning!. Best to know the difference.
Then: Transfer music manually

You might want to update Safari to 3.12. I would empty the safari cache. (Safari>Empty Cache). Then quit Safari. System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>TCP/IP. Insert the following into the DNS Servers box;
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
then hit apply. Now launch Safari. You should also try powering down modem, router and Mac and power up in 2 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.
