Trouble downloading and updating new os 4.2.1

I don't know if anyone else has had this problem. It has been weeks of trying to download and update my iPhone 4 with the new os. When it is just about done downloading, it will pop up a screen saying "error, it has timed out. please check your internet connections." FYI I'm plugged into wall. I didn't have a problem updating the previous os. I've also uninstalled all Apple programs and reinstalled and it has changed nothing. Any suggestions on what to do?? I can't restore my phone either b/c it requires me to d/l the new os and I CAN'T!!! Please help!!!

If firewalls or security software has been ruled out, Go to http://www.speedguide.net:8080 to see if there are any network setting issue.
If you have another computer available, you can do a restore and update on it and then come back to sync your info back to this computer.

    Hi John
    iTunes Support wasn't of any use to me.
    I have also been having another problem - with BBC iPlayer and other video streaming not working due to insufficient bandwidth, despite my overall download speed being consistently around 50Gb.  This is also affecting AppleTV downloads
    I am using Virgin Media as my ISP, and was wondering whether you do as well.  This might be the common thread.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    if that fails, uninstall ps, clean (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6) and reinstall.  then use the manual updates.

  • Download and update vs download then update?

    I plugged in my iphone last night and it told me there was a new software update for my phone.  I saw the option to choose download only or download and update.  In my memory was a suggestion to always back up before updating so I chose download only, as I had to make a call and thought I'd download it, attend to my life and then sync before updating.  So I started the download.  I tried 3 times and the download stopped every time, saying it lost connection with the server.  I use airport with comcast cable (live in the PNW of the USA) So I plugged my ethernet directly into my imac and started the download.  It gave me the same message that the download was dropped.  So I checked on the community to see if maybe Apple was having trouble attending to what was possibly a lot of download requests for a new update. 
    Long story, I do not know what the issue is/was.  I tried again tonight after work and it gave me the error message.  I tried again and kept itunes open, and just kept my hand on my track pad, keeping itunes active and the computer awake.  My sleep is set at 2 hours and my display was at 10 mins.  Maybe the display sleep was dropping the download.. I'm not sure, but while I kept the track pad active, the download completed itself taking several minutes, it was 666 mb. 
    So I just plugged in my ipad, got the same message for the software update, started it and got the dropped server message.  I had chosen download only, thinking of the trouble I'd had the past two days, and was worried that if the update was dropped during download AND update, it might cause a lot of trouble.
    So, so most of you choose download only, or download AND update?  And have others found this current download to take so long that your server drops the download?  I had the cable company out today, and they tested my download and said it was 19 MB so it should be ok.
    Thanks for your thoughts.
    Michelle, who will download only the ipad update, using the track pad tao keep itunes awake.

    disable anti virus software if installed. Then try logging in.
    And try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store and try logging in.

  • My iPod touch is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour.

    My iPod touch 4th gen 32gb verson 4.3.1 is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour. I just got it a day ago and I backed up all my apps music and pictures and videos from iTunes. Few months ago I had an iPod touch but I lost it and it was working fine. Luckily before I lost it i backed up everything to iTunes so now everything that was in my old iPod is now in my new iPod. Anyways, When I first bought it I straight away backed up everything and saw that i had many updates on my apps. I started updating it all at once but even the first one was not loading at all and mty ipod was hanging many times during the updates so i cancelled all the updates. i even tried it on my computer and it was taking forever but my laptop does updating and downloading apps slower than my ipod so that doesnt matter. Even when I download an app on my iPod now its take more that an hour. So i was wondering, is my iPod slow cause I backed up too many things when i just got it . I have about 120 apps 150 plus photos and 70 videos and I backed it up all in one night on the day i got my ipod. So now I'm restoring my iPod and updating it to IOS 5 and see what happens. Hopefully it will be faster then but I still need to know what is main problem of m iPod hanging and slow updating/downloading. Need a reply ASAP. Thanks

    Still you can switch it off while syncing.
    You can also do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

    Hi Robertfrom Denver.
    Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
    I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
    I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?

  • Having trouble downloading adobe update on safari

    I am having trouble downloading adobe update on safari on my desktop, running maverick, and and older macbook running snow leopard

    Probably Flash. If so, get the DMG installer here.

    Don't think this is what you mean, but after downloading it must be installed--with all browsers closed.

  • HT3281 How to download and update iso 6

    I would like to learn how to download and update iso 6 in my iPad

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Since 2012 I have Photoshop Elements always worked without any problem, however now the language is suddenly German how can this be changed, removed the program and re-installed, not working. Program is downloaded and updated via the apple app store?

    I've done some research on the SQLite database. Whenever Aperture hangs up (like during auto-stack or opening the filter hud) there are thousands of SQLite queries happening. These SQLite queries cause massive file I/O because the database is stored on the disk as 1kb pages. However, the OS is caching the database file; mine's only 12MB. I'm trying to track down some performance numbers for SQLite on osx but having trouble.
    It's starting to look like most of the speed problems are in the libraries that Aperture uses instead of the actual Aperture code. Of course, that doesn't completely let the developers off the hook since they choose to use them in the first place.
    Oh, and if anyone is curious, the database is completely open to queries using the command line sqlite3 tool. Here's the language reference http://www.sqlite.org/lang.html
    Hmm, just found this. Looks like someone else has been playing around in the db http://www.majid.info/mylos/stories/2005/12/01/apertureInternals.html

I closed my laptop, not shut down. I re-opened the laptop a few hours later, and it wants restoring?? Whats going on?! i want my iphone back! PLEASE HELP. I'M LOST!!! (I synced my iphone to my computer if that helps at all).

    Yes, and, I try to restore. I have the T-Mobile sim card in it just to clarify. It will not let me get passed that, it does not accept the t-mobile sim card. i tried restoring it using wifi, cellular, and i cant get i tunes. I am scared that if i take the tmobile sim card out and put the at&t one in just to complete the restoration process that the iphone will lock again and not read the tmobile sim card, then all my hard work has gone for nothing. ( this whole process was caused by me trying wanting to empty my pictures onto my computer because i did not have any storage space left). <--- that may not be as important, but i included it just because.
