Tried to upgrade to ios4 with 3G...get error message

when I tried to upgrade to iOS4 on my 3G, it told me that it could not complete the restore. I didn't seem to lose anything but everytime I plug the phone in now to charge I get the same error message....it asks if I want to complete restoring...I click yes and the error comes up with a number. Is there a fix to this??

I read on this forum to do a restore from a backup before updating, and all worked fine with my 3G but it took about two hours, so have patience.
What I did was download the update without installing. I then did a Restore From Backup, which then backed up everything and did the update with the restore. A couple of things I had to do for a couple of apps, but otherwise all is well. I will probably get an iphone 4 in August or September.

Trying to upgrade an itunes download and getting error message "windows installer did not finish as expected. contact person or vendor"

trying to upgrade my ITunes for my Iphone and cannot access content. During upgrade getting message "windows installer did not finish as expected..contact vendor"

Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

Many thanks.
the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable
click ok to try again or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package itunes64.msi in the box below
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Hey santhosh.pv,
We have a few articles that can help troubleshoot the alert message in iTunes you see when you are trying to restore your iPhone 4. You can resolve many restore issues using the troubleshooting steps documented here:

Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad. Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad. Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad. If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad. Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space. The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

When trying to connect to Airplay speakers I get error message "The network connection timed out" although some sort of connection is made as the speaker is turned on. Same thing with Apple TV. Is the distance from my speaker/ TV the problem?

I recently did the latest update. My Ipad 2 would not turn on, and then the screen with the apple logo started flashing. I tried the recovery restore, but I kept getting error messages. What should I do?

I recently did the latest update, and then I charged my Ipad 2 afterwards. I went to use my Ipad 2 days later, and it would not even turn on. Then after a couple minutes, the apple logo appeared as if it were loading. It continued to do this for a few minutes, and then the screen starting turning on and off. Then 5 minutes after that, my lock screen appeard and froze. Then it shut itself off again. I tried plugging my ipad into Itunes to do the recovery restore, but I kept getting error messages.

Trying to install iOS 7.0.4. get error message each time

get error message each time i try to install new update

If you are trying to update via wifi, don't.
Turn wifi off and connect to computer, update with iTunes. This will allow you to create a full backup to computer first, which is a VERY good idea.

I am trying to re-install itunes.
I removed all Apples software, and restarted.

Thanks so much. This definitely worked. I'm sorry I did not think of using IE. I use Foxfire exclusively so seldom even think of IE as an alternative.

HT201210 Trying to restore ipod and keep on getting error message: the ipod software update server could not be contacted. the network connection was reset

Hello can someone please help? Trying to restore ipod and I keep on getting error message: The IPod software update server could not be contacted. The network connection was reset. Make sure your network is active and try again.

Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:

HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
You may be required to boot into safe mode to complete the folder deletion process.
