Other bits of Software for the iPhone
Hi,
Can anybody advise if iPhone can run a spreadsheet package on it and also a basic bank account package with debits and credits for example?
TIA
Unless you can access this over the web, then no, the iPhone won't run any packages apart from what is on the phone itself.
In other words, it is only a very limited PDA device at present.
See the following webapps for the iPhone which might be of some help to you:

Note that you don't download these, but use them online.

Hi there,
If you have have this error
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iphone"iPhone username". you do not have permission to access the requested resource.
when trying to update you iphone then try to switch to airplane mode and retry (after updating windows and itunes as advised on other threads but did not resolve the error)...it worked great for me. (picked up this tip here https://discussions.apple.com/message/19619175#19619175)
cheersHi Guys,
I have the sam problem just upgrading to iOs6.0.1. iTunes returns the following error:
Ive tried updating via my device (New iPad) and same problem.
I started downloading the update last week but stopped it for reasons I cannot remember. Now it seems that Ive clogged my system.
My iTunes is up to date. I have however not run any Quicktime or iCloud updates cause i do not use the software. Will it make a difference.
Also my Windows updates might be a bit outdated, say about a month or so.
Please help, very frustrating!
Also sorry but while Im here I have another question. A while ago the brightness level of my iPad adjusted by itself (not Auto Adjust). Its like it dimmed via Auto Adjust and did not "un-dim" and now Im forced to run brightness at 100% and consequently is hard on battery life. Any ideas? -
Why can't I update my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1? Every time I try it gets all the way done downloading it; however when it's processing the file the page tells me "There is a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. Network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. or try again later." and next to the file it has err = -3259. I have tried this 17 times and it won't work. My iTunes is completely up to date. I have made sure that my connection is fine and I have tried turning my firewall off with no avail. This has happened to me before but usually the update will go through after 2-3 tries, never to this extent. I don't know what to do. Help!
Error -3259 is a network timeout error, usually. This article might help:

Hi,
I tried to downgrade my iphone4s os from ios6 (beta 4) to ios 5.0.1(factory settings).
but all the time i am getting the following error.
"there was a problem downloading the software for the iphone "rams's iPhone" "
pls help me to downgrade my device.
I am from india, ios6 maps are not at all working for india so i want to go for old version so that i can have google maps.
Regards
RamYou couldn't go back to 5.0.1 even if you wanted to, it would have to be 5.1.1 but if you had a signed copy of the iOS 6 beta on your iPhone I don't believe you can go back.
You can try Google to see if you can find a workaround. Despite the map issue, if you are a developer don't you need the Beta on your iPhone? -
I tried to update my ipad air from IOS 7.0.4 to 7.1 on iTunes. I clicked download and update, it started to download normally but when download finished iTunes shows error that "The software for the iphone was corrupted during download".
How can I fix this error ?I had the same problem. In the end I downloaded it manually. Here's the steps assuming you are on a Mac and have an iPad Air (Wifi). If not you can find other restore links here.
In the terminal (it kept failing to download in Safari):
curl http://appldnld.apple.com/iOS7.1/031-4521.20140310.D2Ydl/iPad4,1_7.1_11D167_Rest ore.ipsw >>~/Desktop/iPad4,1_7.1_11D167_Restore.ipsw
Once the file has downloaded, move it to ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates/
Quit and relaunch iTunes.
Should now work for you. -

"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone....An unknown error occurred (-23)." What should I do?
i have the same problem:
I have an iphone 4s and I have been trying for months to update my phone from iOS 6.1.3 to the new one.
I recently got a new computer (my old harddrive crashed and will not work at all) and I just now copied all my music and photos to the computer.
Now I have been trying to update to the iOS 7.1 both on iTunes and on the iPhone but neither one work. I keeps saying "unknown error" .
I am wondering if I restore it to factory settings and then update it will the install work?
also since i have backed up to the iCloud and my computer..will i be able to recover my music, contacts, notes and photos???
thanks in advance. -
I cant seem to be able to update to iOS 6.1 through my PC for my iPhone 5...The error reads: 'There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone 'Thomas Honiball'. You do not have permission to access the requested resource".... please help!!
Only developer's have access to iOS 6 now. Thus, if you are a developer you have have access to the developer's forum for iOS 6.
Otherwise you have a bootleg copy and are on yur own./ -

IOS 5 on 3Gs iPhone,There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone
I have attemepted to update my iPhone 3Gs 8-10 times now over the past three days and keep getting the following error message:
There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone " My iPhone". The network connection timed out.
Make sure your network settings asre correct and your netowrk connections are active, or try again later.
This is after i wait 45-60min for iOS 5 to download each time.Hi,
I am having the same problem as eimaj311 - and I dont have Kaspersky. I would like to believe that the error is not even related to network speed. I understand there would be a high demand on the servers - but this would have been anticipated and addressed - if so why the error message. I think downloading 700Mb would have been easier if iTunes can save whatever was downloaded and resume from that point in the event an error occurs.
In the mean time I am doomed - looks like the timeout error messages are there to stay. -
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone"
I'm in iTunes 8.2 with my iPhone 3G connected. I click "update" and I get a message saying that "iTunes will update your iPhone..." I click update and I get "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "Steve's iPhone 3G". The network connection could not be made."
I'm not seeing anyone else posting this error. I assume it means Apple's servers are busy, but everyone else seems to be getting the update fine.
My internet connection is strong (22M down / 5M up) and I can access everything else out there, including the iTunes Store. Any ideas?Agreed, I had the same problem but after reading your post I decided to keep trying and it eventually worked. Thankfully for me at least it worked on about the 10th attempt!
Thanks! -

I am trying to download ios7 onto my iphone 4s through itunes and keep getting the message "the software for the iphone was corrupted during download. Disconnect and reconnect then try again. Make sure your network settings are correct and network connection is active or try again later."
Try force quitting the app...
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the app quits.
