I get the"download iPod updater"message &downloading the updater won't help

Here's what happened:
I plugged my iPod into my iTunes to put music on it.
It says "Do Not Disconnect" like it alwasys does, but this time doesn't go away. It stays for 45 minutes. IN an act of desperation, I disconnect.
I lose everything.
"Not a big deal" I think, because I can just put the stuff on my iPod again.
I connect the two, I get the "download iPod updater" message. I download it. Same thing.
I uninstall and reinstall about 3 times.
Still same thing.
PLEASE HELP.

im having pretty much the EXACT same problem with mine. tried the "5 r's" yadda yadda, completely useless. this is my second ipod, i had a 4G that died a few months ago, which had the same problem, but about 6 months after i bought it. my 5G is brand new, got it for xmas like most people, next day i plug it in and BAM, its been blinking that **** little red circle for days and ive tried everything. im just gonna make use of my warrenty and send it in for repairs. ill post if i figure something out before then.

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.

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.

Problem since I downloaded Ipod update

Since I downloaded the latest update of the Ipod software, It is not recognized by my computer anymore... The windows explorer & itunes can't find it.
I tried to reinstall it with the Ipod updater but it fails everytime:
either it says there is no ipod connected,
or it says it is used by another application(!!)
Does anybody know how I could repair that or return to the older ipod software version??
Thanks!

Looks like Apple did the same thing with Lion that Microsoft did with Vista. Brought it on the market before it was ready.
I run a MacBook Pro and upgrading to Lion caused me two days of trouble and computer crash. Router settings removed and router blocked. Dongle not recognised, you name it.
In the end, I gave up and using my Snow Leopard installation disk and a Time Machine Backup finally got my computer up and running again. Thanks to Lion, I think I'll stay with OS X 10.6.8 at least it's reliable.

Direct download ipod update

I am having trouble downloading the new ipod update. Everytime I get near the end I receve and error. I was wondering is there a direct download to the ipod update, so that I could not go through itunes until it is already on the computer. or be able to pick up when it said that it was a network timeout at the end? If anyone has any suggestions please help me. I have already tried googling the problem and looking at other discussions.
Thanks In Advance

First, tell us what error you receive. Second, check your console log at the time of the error to see what it tells you may have happened. Also, check the CrashReporter log.
Also, this might be a good idea:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Error message while trying to download Ipod Updater

Help! I am about ready to lose it. When I plug my mini into my computer it says that Itunes does not recognize it and that I need to restore it to factory settings. That is fine but in order to do that I need to launch Ipod Updater. When I try to download the file I get an error message saying "Error during setup intialization". Any ideas?

Interesting.
Okay, let's try some general principles troubleshooting with this one, then.
(1) Do you currently have a copy of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package installed on that PC? If so, try downloading the following security update:
[Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=766a6af7-ec73-4 0ff-b072-9112bab119c2&displaylang=en#filelist]
Does iTunes install for you after applying that update?
(2) If no joy there, head into your Windows Update and click on the Update History. Have a lot of Updates also been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on the entries for the failed updates to bring up more information on each. What error codes appear for you for the failed updates? (Precise spelling, please.)

What happens after downloading iPod Updater-after clicking restore?

I have a problem with my ipod that's a bit complicated and can anyone just help? See what happened was, my ipod was in a scan mode, so my cousin tells me. After the battery died, I recharged it, hoping it would stop but it didn't. The next day, all the songs in my ipod are gone and now, I downloaded the ipod updater and plugged in my ipod and clicked restore, and now I don't know if it's ok now. It still says Do Not Disconnect. Should I or shouldn't I? what the **** is up?

It could probably be in the Hard Drive mode. If its not, I would recommend resetting.
Turn on hold, then turn off. Then hold Menu, and the center button at the same time for about 6 seconds, should make the apple logo show and it should fix it.

Trouble with iPOD Updater's "Restore" option

Hi,
I bought a 30 GB iPod with Video on 13th Jult 2006. While checking out the "Restore" option on the iPod updater Software,I have got stuck. The iPod "Restore" is going on since last 2 Hours ! Is it correct ? I am getting "Do not Disconnect" screen since last 2 Hours !
Even the the iPod updater software is showing the following message since 2 Hours ---
"Can't Interrupt restore process. Application will be closed when the restore process is complete." And, both the "Update" & the "Restore" buttons are grayed out.
What should I do now ?

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.

Troubles downloading the update for iphone

When I try to download the update, it goes fine until 95% then it stops. The error message is something about lost connection, but there's no lost connection. And the firewall doesn't stop it either. I need to update it because I bought some apps, that doesn't work properly without the update. I checked if itunes was in the exception list, so the antivirus doesn't stop it, and it is. Any clues? Do you think it would download properly by cable instead of wireless internet?
I downloaded some other stuff on the computer and it doesn't stop..

Hi,
If you're having problems downloading iOS 4.2.1, and get an 3259 error, try this:
For a 3GS, download the iOS 4.2.1 IPSW package
http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/061-9895.20101122.Cdew2/iPhone2,14.2.1_8C148aRestore.ipsw
It's better to use a download manager, like Free Download Manager, GetRight, etc.
Once you have the file in your PC, open iTunes and connect the iPhone.
Now, hold the Shift key on your PC keyboard and click on Update.
A file dialog will appear. Locate the IPSW file you downloaded and follow the regular update instructions.
I hope this solves your problem.
Cheers.

Is anyone having trouble downloading the update

i see that there is no posts on people not being able to get the update. this confuses me because i can't get the update unlike everyone else.

Apple's servers are getting bombarded by people trying to download the update. The only option at the moment is to delay downloading it for a while, perhaps the middle of the night in the US, when hopefully the servers will be less busy.
