Problem downloading new Classic software.

I plugged my iPod in a few minutes ago to discover that a new software download was available for my iPod Classic. When I click 'download and install', a pop-up window appears, telling me what's contained in the new software. From here, I click 'Next >' and immediately, Windows alerts me that iTunes has stopped working and has to close. I have tried several time to download the software, with the same result each time.
Can anyone help?

Possible fix for "problem downloading the IPOD software.." error

I have a click wheel IPOD and after dropping it was forced to restore to factory setting. When attempting to restore, Itunes nor my computer recognized my IPOD and when it finally did I got the message
"These was a problem downloading the Ipod software for the Ipod "Ipod." The requested resource was not found."
I did the 5 steps repeatedly over 2 days with no luck then today I combined advice from a bunch of postings and it worked!
Here's what worked:
1)Bought a new USB 2.0 connect cable.
2)Deleted the folder containing the firmware files: see
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304309
3)Delete Ipod updater
4)Restarted computer
5)Download updated Itunes
http://www.apple.com/ipod/start/
When I ran the exe file it asked if I wanted to "repair" or "reinstall" I choose "repair".
5)Reset ipod
6)Opened itunes, connected ipod, it took about 10 minutes for itunes to sync with the ipod.
7)Choose restore.
After that it went as normal.

Restore error message: "There was a problem downloading the iPod software"

I am trying to restore my iPod and keep getting this message when I try: "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod "iPod". The requested resource was not found." HELP! What do I do next???

Hi BigIRv,
Actually, a "requested resource" error message (which I believe you are getting) most of the time has to do with iTunes having a problem with connecting to your iPod, rather than the iPod software update server (although a more rare possibility of this error message could occur in that sense).
See my post here, which contains a couple of things to try if you have that error message:

Unable to Retore! Error -48 Problem downloading the iPhone software

I was having trouble with Safari (reseting all the time) and wanted to try restoring my iPhone from scratch.
Each time I select "restore" I watch the download activate and when it's complete, I get the following error:
There was a problem downloading the iPhone software for the iPhone "My Name iPhone". An unknown error occured (-48).
I'm at a loss. Has anyone else seen this or have an answer?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Before you 'restore', you may wish to read this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304893
It addresses that error for the ipod. I myself might play around with the time zones first before I try restoring -- are they the same in the mac and the iphone? -- maybe temporarily switch to Pacific and see if the problem goes away.
You can also search for that error by putting it in quotes: "(-48)". You will get hits for the number 48 too.
Normally Macs don't have this issue. It seems as if you are running on USB 2.0 -- it probably should not be going thru a hub.
Hope this helps.

Computer running slow, and problems downloading new software

i have a powerbook g4 and it running slow at times. my dad bought a new one and gave me this one and my powerbook runs half of the speed of his. this is my 1st mac and i am trying to figure it out. my mac tends to freeze up sometimes when i am online. my cursor indicates that it is loading, but it takes a long time to load. most of the times i just force quit safari and try it again. also, when i try to install software off of the net, it ask me to pick a software to use to open it. i have tried almost every software on the computer and i have yet to run the installer. my email account is on hotmail, and my mac will not allow me to go straight to hotmail.com to retrieve emails. hotmail tells me that i have to download new software to be able to retrieve my mail, and that brings me to the above problem with downloading software. my mac runs on mac OS X version 10.3.9 if that is any help to you, thanks

Welcome! You bring up a lot of issues but most suggest simply a need for some routine file maintenance. One of the best resources is here:
http://thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
There are a lot of articles; focus on those with titles about maintenance, tuning, and freeing space on the hard drive
It would be helpful to know a little more about your PB, like the processor speed and the amount of RAM installed. Both are available by selecting "About the Mac..." from the blue Apple menu at the let end of the menubar.

Have you disabled any firewall and security/antivirus programs? This seems to have helped the vast majority of people who have posted the same problem in this forum.

Email Problems with New Lion Software

I have recently upgraded my computer to the new Lion Software. My email now longer works and is constantly in freefall sending and receiving emails. Since I downloaded the software this problem has happened on and off but now its a permanent problem. I know its the new software that affecting my emails as all my other devices, my iphone and ipad pick emails okay. As a small business owner this is a huge problem.

Hi!
After the new upgrade of software, my iPod Touch has not been able to retrieve any emails from the different a/cs I hv, Yahoo, Starhub, Singnet. All I see is the 1st few lines preview & when I click on that same email to open, its totally empty. Never had this problem b4 the upgrade.

HT1725 my itunes wont open since downloading new ios7 software, what do I do :(

since downloading the new ios software my itunes store will not open, it does for a split second then disappears my apps store and everything else opens HELP please would be greatly appreciated

Have you tried closing the iTunes store app via the multitasking bar and seeing if it works when you re-open ti : double-click the home button to open the bar and then swipe the iTunes app up from there and off the top of the screen, and then click the home button to close the bar
If that doesn't fix it then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

Mac OS 10.5.8 too old for HP deskjet 2514 driver and I can't download new Mac software. HELP!

Hi,
I have an older Mac with the OS 10.5.8 system. It's too old to download to 10.6 the new Mac software because it's not intel-based so I can't download the driver for the printer.
I've been trolling the hp support boards and there doesn't seem to be a solution. So is my printer essentially useless with my computer?
Please help =)

hi, you would need to state what make and model the printer is for anyone to help

I downloaded new desktop software and try to sync with 8530 but wont sync to outlook contacts and calander

i had blackberry desktop manager on my work computer and use to sync with outlook perfectly. 2 weeks ago i did a backup then sync as normal. i lost over half of my 600+ contacts and alot of calander listings on my phone. tried to sync again from computer to phone and lost more contacts and calander listings. so i tried to restore from the backup and lost more data. i reinstalled software from the cd i recieved last year when i purchased the 8530. the desktop software would not find outlook and would not sync. i deleted softwaqre and just downloaded new blackberry desktop software. it still will not find outlook on my computer and will not sync.
any suggestions what i may be doing wrong on getting software to find and sync with outlook?

Hey Bryanw,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
First check your default services on the device under Options, Advanced Options, default services.
If the default services are configured correctly I would suggest try creating a new MAPI profile as outlined in this article http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02083 and then reconfigure the Desktop Software as shown here http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17022
Thank you.

Downloaded new iOS software. Email showing unread messages but I don't have any unread messages anywhere - I checked! How do I fix this glitch?

Downloaded new iOs 7 software. Now my email shows unread messages that arent there! I can't fix it.. Help!

Close mail and reboot the iPad.
Double tap the home button to get to the open apps. Then swipe up on the mail app from the multitasking display to close the app.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My thunderbolt screen flashes when hooked up to macbook pro after downloading new lion software

does anyones monitor flash when using new lion software and thunderbolt monitor

You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

Problem downloading windows support software -- boot camp

Attempting to download windows support software on MacBook Air 13.3" running version 10.7.4. The download is just hanging up. I was able to install Windows 7 with the boot camp and now don't have any drivers in the windows environment.

Thanks for the response. I had been attempting the download for 6-8 hours. A bit after the last reply was posted, the download started to make progress and eventually completed. I successfully installed all the drivers.
