I have moved to the country where my internet speed is slow. I am running some auto updates that keep timing out half way through. Can the time out be shut off to complete the update?

I'm not sure about that. But what you could try is to set the Update Preference to "Manual" and try updating at a time when the Network may not be as busy, like late at night or early in the morning.
Just an idea. -
IPod Touch won't update ("Network Connection timed out")
My iTunes will not update me or my brothers 4th gen. iPod Touch's or another iPod Nano (the new touch screen one). It says that the network connection timed out. How do i fix this. (Trying to update to 4.3.3)
Disable your computer's security software such as the firewall and antivirus. Also try rebooting your computer. modem and router. Some say using a wired connection between the computer and router helps.

Iphone 4 Won't boot up, keeps timing out
Yesterday I installed the latest software update and now my phone won't turn on. The apple comes up, then eventually it times out and turns back off and then back on showing the apple then timesout again. Can't get it to completely turn off or boot up.
Google "iPhone DFU mode". Restore it in DFU mode to force a reinstall of iOS.

I loaded software updates to Settings and now my lock button won't work. I was told to do a Restore but it keeps timing out. It says it will take 58 minutes to do the restore. I disabled my virus software but that didn't help. Any suggestions so I can do a Restore?
Try the Manual Install discussed here:

Ok so I'm trying to update my iPad, and it keeps "timing out." I got to the actual update process, and it failed and asked me to restore my iPad, but I just can't lose all of my apps and photos! I payed for a lot of my apps, and my photos are just too important. Someone please help!
If rhe apps and photos are that important you made sure that you took the steps in order to keep them safe in an event like this didn't you?
You did backup the iPad before you decided to update the iPad correct?
And you did transfer all of your apps and other purchases into iTunes before you decided to update correct?
If you did, just restore the iPad and then restore from the backup at the end of fhe process and follow that with a sync with iTunes and you will lose nothing,
Now if you didn't do any of the precautionary steps .... -

I am trying to update my ipad off of my PC, but it keeps timing out.
If you are getting a network timeout when downloading the update then try temporarily turning off all your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.

I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.
Maybe this will help:
Troubleshooting
As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data. -
Download of 2.1 keeps timing out and won't complete.. somethings missing?
When I am trying to download iphone update of 2.1 my computer keeps timing out. I got an error message that some component was missing...please assist

The error message came when i was dnloading itunes 8 that an important component was missing and warned that if i continued with the install there might be problems. well the installation completed but when i went to download the iphone 2.1 update the download interrupts and i get a "timed out" error. i turned off anything that could possibly start. screensavers etc but don't know what could cause this firewalls
Try doing what dynamite said by installing itunes 8. Maybe do a google about the error. Ring microsoft or last resort is a reformat. -
Update available for firefox 3.6.12 but won't install;says connection timed out
I've had firefox 3.6.12 for a couple of months. it says an upgrade is available, but won't install. says connection timed out. I tried it from IE 8 as well, same result. Took me a half our just to get to mozilla.com I installed IE 8 2 days ago, and since then, my monitor flashes the page when i'm in gmail. Also flash videos won't play worth a crap. I just installed K-lite Mega 6.6 to try to fix that.
I wonder if it's not some of the newer technologies like HTML 5 that the other browsers support. I have the same problem, and the sites load fine in Opera. I still have 3.6 (whatever's latest), and haven't upgraded to 4 yet because of all the extensions I use. I'm waiting until it's more stable and my more important extensions are usable. I use Hulu's desktop viewer and Opera to make up for it, currently.
Adding screenshots of my experience with it. The text will load, but no video or images. That's why I thought it might be some new language / protocol. -
