Restoring/downloading error?

My phone keeps telling me to plug into itunes and restore. When I do it says update and restore. When it finishes downloading nothing happens. SO I press it again and it downloads the update again and doesnt restore.

Google search produced lots of results. Have you done this?

    Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.

    Same here.
    My biggest problem with the download isn't the space it's occupying. It's that it asks me for my account password every 5 min.
    I've been thinking about a factory restore but seems like a drastic solution, there should be an easier way to delete it. Like swipe deleting it like all other downloads.

  • Partial Duplicate Downloads (Error 8003)

    One evening I set a TV series to download on my ATV. The next morning I noticed that episodes were down loading on my iMac. When that had finished, I had a complete series (and nothing else) on my Mac. However, when I return to my ATV as well as all the complete episodes I also have some partial duplicates shown. These files are listed in the downloads menu as 1% complete with the message Download error 8003.
    What I think happened is that my wireless connection was interrupted over night so the episodes could not down load to the ATV. Before this happened, however, the ATV synced and put them in my iTunes down load queue, where they happily downloaded and then were synced back to the ATV.
    I have all the episodes so its not a big problem, but I have all this junk showing on my ATV (so a series is listed as having 12 episodes when it only has 8: I have episodes 1 to 8, plus partial duplicates of episodes 1 to 4).
    Any ideas how to erase the junk from my ATV (it doesn't appear in iTunes)?

    Click the AppleTV device in iTunes to get the tabbed sync menus - if there aren't many tabs you may need to select to 'custom sync' on the ones available. My sync computer has failed so I can't check the exact option.
    There are several posible ways to sort this, some more time consuming than others.
    Those items which directly downloaded to AppleTV may have a trash can icon next to them when they're the current scrolled to item - if so you could just delete them direct from AppleTV.
    Other alternatives would be to remove the sync computer from AppleTV Settings>Computers which will delete all synced data in preparation for a new sync library - it may not remove direct AppleTV downloads though - quick to try but you'd need to add the library agaim with the 5 digit code from this menu and resync stuff. Another alternative would be a factory restore, update software then add back the sync library but this is a last resort in my opinion.
    Did the duplicates sync back to iTunes? If so deleting them from there may remove them from AppleTV at the next sync.
    Oh, how I wish you could drag and drop files to AppleTV in iTunes, and delete/recover content from it in the same way!

  • Download Error with iTunes 10.2.1 "source file could not be read"

    I recently had to restore my iPod due to some issues I was having. After it was done wiping the iPod, a message on my computer told me that after my computer restarted (automatically), I needed to keep my ipod connected so it could re-sync with my backup file. When it restarted, I waited awhile for my ipod to show up in itunes, but unfortunately it never did. I then went to the support page for this, which I have had to do in the past, and I learned that I had to completely reinstall itunes. This is the second time in the past month I have had to do this. I deleted all of the necessary files mentioned on the support page and then restarted my computer. I then went to the itunes download page and clicked download iTunes 10.2.1, the latest version, which is the same version I had before I uninstalled it.
    _*THE ERROR:*_
    About 30 seconds into the download, I get an error message that reads:
    "Download Error
    /Users/Berry/Downloads/iTunes10.2.1.dmg could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"
    This did not happen last time I had to do this re-installation process.
    Thanks in advance for any help and sorry for the long post.

    Whats the problem with this thing?
    One thing i can tell is that i changed some settings in Micromedia Flash, because i learned that they where spying on US, then boom no more download. It stops and tell me it could not be read from the server. Dont remember if it started right after i changed the settings, but its driving me nuts

  • Download error when renting a movie off the iTunes store app

    Hi, I tried to rent a movie off the iTunes store app today(I have rented before with no problems), but when it was in the processing stage it started saying Download error. Tap to retry. Now its taken up 1.3 gigs of space but it never finish processing so its not there. Very frustrating and i cant fix it.

    Apple Tech support doesn't respond here. This is a user-to-user forum.
    You can always restore your Touch to get the memory back. And as, of course, you have everything properly backed up (you do, right?), you can just reload when you're done. I don't know as there is a faster solution.
    Best of luck.

  • Movie Download error on iPad

    Have 1 one stuck on my downloads that keep reading download error every time I retry . I have reset my network setting, deleted some video space , reset all setting except content. I download amtv show and goes though just fine. The movie I want to download is stuck on this download state and can't seem to reset the download list . It downloads fine on other devices lie my iPad 2 or iPhones

    Hi chachirims!
    You have gone through some great troubleshooting steps, but if the download is still stuck after the options you have tried, then we might need to go ahead and restore the iPad. You will want to make sure you have a good back up of your data, and you can find instructions on how to do that here:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    You will then want to follow the instructions in the article below in order to restore your operating system on your iPad:

    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

  • Download error on iPhone...

    Okay, I buy apps from both the itunes store on my computer and on the iphone 3g. When I purchase from the iPhone 3G I keep getting this silly error that the program has not completely downloaded and that I will need to go to my computer. The problem is, the program has downloaded in its entirety and is completely useable. Sometimes there's a ghost file icon still left, but it's completely there and useable.
    When syncing back to the computer, it works as usual. By the way, this downloading "error" never occurred until the update.

    You're welcome.
    Data created and stored by a 3rd party application is included with your iPhone's backup - which is updated if needed as the very first step during the iTunes sync process.
    If you are getting the same problem with all apps, try a reset first, which is done by pressing and holding the Home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release, ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so.
    If a reset does not resolve it, the next step is a restore with iTunes. Before restoring, be sure to sync your iPhone with iTunes to update your iPhone's backup if needed.
    There may be a problem on your iPhone that is also stored with your iPhone's backup and if so, restoring from your iPhone's backup will restore the problem. If restoring from your iPhone's backup does not resolve it, the next step is restoring your iPhone as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
    Restoring as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup will remove all settings, email account setup info, SMS messages, notes, recent calls, call favorites, and any photos that were captured by your iPhone.
    Before restoring from your iPhone's backup or as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, you should import any photos that were captured by your iPhone or that are available in your iPhone's Camera Roll followed by a sync.

  • Download error. Tap to retry.     Why? I have a wifi and still the same message?

    Download error. Tap to retry.... Why? I have a wifi connection and still the same message, and even connected to desktop the same for ipad. Help :-)

    I'm getitng the same thing.  I'm beyond sick of this iPad.  It's a third generation Retina Display and it turned into a pile of cat turds after iOS 7.  It got so bad I restored it and used iCloud. It was still god awful.  I restored it and didnt use the iCloud backup and hoped that whatever was wrong would be avoided....nope.  IF I can get a download going it nearly kills my entire iPad.  I will open the cover and wait over 30 seconds just for the screen to light up.  I will hit the home button to close an app and wait nearly a minute in some cases for it to actually close.  Then to top off all the annoyances it just fails and loops over and over. 
    I bought Apple products to avoid stuff like this.  Very unhappy.

  • Download error. Tap to retry and syncing problems!

    I can't sync music to my iphone 4s, i tried so many times to sync music to it after managing and adding music to my itunes library then dragging them to my iphone, but when i go to my Iphone Music app, only "No content" appear inside the app, no tabs appear.
    In itunes, i synced music to my sisters iphone from the same library and it worked perfectly fine, so i think the problem is in my Iphone!!
    because i also backed up my iphone contents to Icloud, erased everything and started my iphone as a new, when i synced to it, it worked, but when i restored from icloud my contents, i had the same problem.
    I also can't download music from itunes store, it just says (Download error. Tap to retry)
    What's wrong??? I have uploaded three screenshots here.
    A week of suffer! Someone help me please!

    I am finding that iTunes and iCloud are still recognizing my new iPhone 5 as my iPhone 4s... even though I do not own it anymore. I think there is a glitch in there somewhere. I have traded out my new phone once... erased it several times... backed it up... restored it... still no luck.
    I am going to keep trying, but perhaps there is some inherent old soul in the iPhone 5 that is really a 4s... therefore... your 4s won't give up its library? Have no real answer for you... just thought my problem might be in the similar realm.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Itunessetup.exe couldn't be downloaded error message for for vista.

    itunessetup.exe couldn't be downloaded error message for for vista. Couldn't get the update so I uninstalled itunes and still get the error message. I tried reconfiguring the start up components with no luck. anybody know how to fix this?

    I actually had started on this before your post but you are right. My luck created some issues but after I got around that it worked. I uninstalled everything in the order it needed to. While I was doing this windows had an update. When I restarted something must have went wrong with the update and it crashed on the start up. took me a while to restore it but when I was done it brought back the programs in their damaged state.
    So I did the uninstall process again. restarted. and reinstalled and it all works now.
    Thank you for the help.
    For those reading this the order to uninstall goes as:
    iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, Apple Application Support, iCloud, and finally MobileMe. Skip over any you don't have installed. Then Restart then reinstall itunes.

    A video I paid will not download. I keep getting download error. I have an iPad2 and I have downloaded other movies since buying the one that won't. Please help.

    I would restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod on your computer and start over. It appears the iPod is associated with another account.  Any media that came with the iPod does not belong to you and di not transfer with the iPod hardware.

  • "Download error" when getting songs from iTunes on iPod touch 2G

    Hi all. Recently I've been getting a "Download Error. Tap to retry" message when I'm downloading songs from iTunes on my iPod Touch. It doesn't always happen, but seems to happen most if I leave the Download screen before the song is done downloading and processing. Even though it says "Tap to retry", when I do that, it just errors again. This continues, with frequent pop-up prompts asking for my iTunes password, until I connect my Touch back to iTunes.
    I was curious if other people had the same problem and if there is a fix for this or if I just need to stay on the download screen until the song is done.
    I have a 32gig iPod Touch 2nd Gen with the latest OS.
    Thanks for any info.
