New Updated iphone software causing problems

Ever since the update last week of the iphone software, my "other" category is using 6.42 GB. Is anyone else having an issue with this?

I am having the same problem, with 6.26 GB attributed to Other. I am reluctant to Restore because I don't want to lose data that is not synched to my Mac.
I only sync with a G5 iMac. All my software is up-to-date, and I am concerned.
I cannot say it is due to my iPhone update. It just started today, well after the iPhone update.

  • Having problems updating iphone software to version 5.0

    I currently have version 4.3.1 and finally decided to update iphone software to version 5.0.  It goes through the 6 minute process, but then I get the error message:  "There was a probem downloading the software for the IPhone -----.  The network connection ttimed out.  Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active or try again later."
    I've tried several times and keep getting the same message.  My network connection is active and I've just the firewall and made sure it allows itunes updates.
    Please help!  Any other suggestions?  When answering please be very specific - I'm really clueless with the computer. 
    Thanks in advance!

    try this,
    Plug in, click update software, and click download ONLY.
    Let the ipsw file download complete,... then click update.
    This way is much better. If you keep having error message, its either your internet connection is inconsistent or Apple's server is inconsistent... usually more likely the former.

  • ITunes not recognising network connectio to update iPhone software

    Installed new iTunes on iMac. Trying to update iPhone software.  iTunes says network connection could not be established.  All other network connections are working fine.

    Correct, and read the other 100 posts about this today.  You and the owners of a couple of other million i-devices are all trying to update at the same time and you're encountering a traffic jam.
    Some have said changing DNS servers helped, or maybe it is snake oil.

  • When I updated Iphone software and synchronized with MacBook, newest calendar entries were deleted. Other experiences with this? If so, how do I prevent this? I have Iphone 3G

    On at least 2 occasions, when I updated Iphone software and synced with MacBook, my newest calendar events were deleted. The information in Ical and on IPhone reverted to an older version of events instead of defaulting to the new information. I know of at least 1 other person who experienced this; is this a common occurrence? What is the reason for it and the remedy? How do I prevent this from happening in the future?

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • I am updating my iPhone4s with the most recent OS7.3software update and its been almost 3 hrs now and it has not completed its update. It is still " verifying updated iPhone software. How long does it take for the update to be completed. Thanks

    Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
    The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
    Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
    Good Luck

  • "Verifying updated iPhone software" message for 4 hours now, please help!

    I'm trying to update to 1.1.1 for 4 hours now, and after downloading and extracting the "Verifying updated iPhone software . . ." message doesn't disappear, nor does it advance or anything.
    my phone has never been hacked in any way nor have there been any 3rd party things installed. I signed up as a new at&t customer on day 2 of the iPhone release and never had any trouble till now.
    I'm currently overseas and won't be back for the next month. so I've been using me iPhone as an iPod and mail device (wherever I have wireless access) since at&t isn't working here.
    could that be why it is not verifying the software and "stuck" in this mode for more than 4 hours now?
    I haven't gotten any of the error messages that are mentioned in the other threads, but I'm afraid to disconnect it, as I'm not sure what's going to happen.
    Please help!

    never mind. I disconnected it, had to restore it to factory settings, but it all came back and now it's working with the new udpate!

  • While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error message that Iphone cound not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

    While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error that Iphone could not be updated because the firmware file not compatible.
    Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

    Using iTunes 10.5.2.11 on a PC running 64 bit Windows 7
    First did a full back up of  iphone using iTunes
    Put iphone into Recovery Mode ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 ). Erases all user data and settings!
    Disconnected USB cable from iphone
    Powered off iphone by holding down Sleep/Off button until slider appeared, slid to off, waited until screen dark
    Pressed and kept holding Home button while plugging cable back into phone
    I still saw the graphic on the iphone that said to plug into iTunes, so I unplugged and re-plugged cable. (I may have released the Home button too soon)
    Recovery Mode alert came up in iTunes.
    Followed all iTunes prompts to restore phone - it downloaded and sucessfully installed iOS 5.0.1
    iphone did not appear in iTunes due to missing pairing file (that made me nervous)
    iphone was now at factory settings. I followed prompts on iphone screen to start reactivation process
    Eventually the iphone asked if I wanted to restore from a back-up (whew!)
    A window opened in iTunes and I was able to select my previous back-up file for the restore
    A full restore from back-up then occured
    I also allowed a carrier settings update to occur when prompted (not sure that happens in all cases)
    When the restore was done I had to re-enter some passwords, but everything was there
    iOS is now 5.0.1 (9A406). The whole process took about an hour.

  • I've downloaded the ios7 to my iphone but it didn't verify so I connected my iphone to itunes and updated it .. it's now stuck half way through saying 'updating iphone software' it's been like that for 40 mins .. should I be worried?

    I've downloaded the ios7 software to my iphone but it didn't let me install it over air so I connected my iphone to itunes and updated it .. it's now stuck half way through saying 'updating iphone software' it's been like that for 40 mins .. should I be worried?

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

    attempting to update iphone software via pc. itunes engaged. back up does not appear to have occurred.  device now locked. requesting restore action.  anyway to save photos in this status? or restore after?

    it was just the biggest mistake of today, not my life :P
    restoration steps i took were:
    1. connect the dead phone to another pc with itunes turned on
    2. follow the notifications on that itunes
    3. restore the phone
    4. disconnect the phone after the restoration without clicking any buttons of that itunes
    5. connect the phone to my own pc
    6. my own pc can recognize the phone and itunes will try to restore the backup of my phone
    7. restore from the backup on my pc
    8. sync everything (tick all the apps in itunes manually since there is no such button to select all) and reorganize all the apps
    9. after ca. 25 min, the phone is back to the previous sw version

  • I can't update iPhone software - it is telling me that I am not connected to the Internet - I have checked my connection

    Can anyone let me know what to do - I am connected to the Internet but iTunes is telling me there is no connection when I try to update iPhone software? Thanks

    If you are using a Windows based computer, could be security software and or the firewall preventing the update process.

  • Why won't my Creaive Cloud find new updates for software?

    Why won't my Creaive Cloud find new updates for software? For example, I know Illustrator 17.1 has been released with cool new features; however, my creative cloud seems to be oblivious to this update and any other updates and I do not know how to make work properly again. Creative cloud hasn't prompted me to update any software for over a month and so it is likely missing plenty of updates; however, it is the Illustrator update I want most.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Lee

    Lee if you remove and reinstall Illustrator do the new updates get applied?  If not then please review your installation log files for the error which may be preventing the update from being applied.  You can find information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  Please feel free to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.
