Unable to Download iTunes update

Folks,
I am unable to download any Updates for iTunes. I get the following error message
"The update "iTunes" can't be installed. A network error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001). Make sure you are connected to the internet, then try again"
I can confirm that I am connected to the internet and am surfing without any issues. Has anyone seen this error before and have any work around?
Thanks
Kevin

and then it just stops
Im having a similair problem when I try to install the new security update 2008-005 - it restarts the computer and then just hang not doing anything
Please let me know what I can do - thanks

you will also have to update your operating system to 10.4.11 with these updates in this order:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1048updateintel .html
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1049updateintel .html
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10410updatev11i ntel.html
i hope those work!
NOTE: you will have to install these before the security update. don't install them if your operating system is already at 10.4.11. you can check your version by going to the apple menu and choosing About This Mac.

Temporarily disable/turn off your anti-virus and firewall software and try the download again.

Should the advice above not fix things for you...
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

I am unable to download iTunes (10.5.2).

I am unable to download iTunes (10.5.2).
When I attempt to download I get an error message which reads:
"Apple Software Update
Errors occured while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools>Download Only and try installing manually."
I have done the Tools>Download Only and tried installing manually. When I do this procedure I get an error message which reads:
"Apple Software Update
iTunes has an invalid signature. The download has been removed."
I went to the "Trouble installing iTunes or Quicktime for Windows" help section and deleted Temp folder and restarted the computer, but I am getting all the same error messages.
I hesitate to uninstall iTunes and reinstall because I am afraid that I will loose all of my music, podcasts and pictures.
My iTunes also will not download my most recent podcasts.
Can you tell me what to do to correct these problems?

I never had to uninstall iTunes to reinstall a new version, that included 10.5. What happens when you try to download iTunes 10.5?
How are you trying to download it? From the Apple website or the iTunes/Apple software updater?

Unable to download iTunes 10.7 on my Macbook (using OSX 10.5.8). Thx

Unable to download iTunes 10.7 on my Macbook, hence, cannot use my iphone 5. How could I upgrade my OSX?( apart from buying a new Macbook, thx)

You need OSX 10.6.8 at least. Read the link below on getting 10.6 at least, then update online to 10.6.8. Depending upon your model computer you might be able to go beyond 10.6.
Kappy 08/2012 post on upgrading to Snow Leopard, then Lion or Mountain Lion - https://discussions.apple.com/message/19401628 - including how to get Snow Leopard and Lion since Apple removed them from their online store.
In the future do not buy new devices until you are sure you can run them on your computer. Read the 8 point medium gray print on a light gray background Apple uses to tell you on each box what system requirements are for each device.

I am unable to download itunes on 32 bit Vista home premium

I had an older version 9 of Itunes on my Vista 32 bit home premium windows pc and has acquired the latest ios 6 Ipod touch but Itunes dows not recognise it and I was unable to sync it. The itouch driver installed on pc and a message comes comes up shortly that Ipod touch need to download Itunes versin 6.3,1 but i am unable to dowanload it onto Ipod touch itself as it needs to be sync with Itune on PC, but it does not recognise devices. I tried installing update but it does not want to complete and I followed online instruction to uninstall all Itunes and related software which i had done but now I am unable to download Itunes at all. Is there anyone who has a solution to this problem?

I am unable to download iTunes on my second Windows 8 computer (64 bit). I got it fine on my first one and have used it quite a bit. After downloading the program and installing it on the second computer, I keep getting this error message: "Apple Mobile Device Failed to Start." This happens when when my IPhone 5c is connected via Wi-Fi and I have clicked on "Trust This Computer." (I have tried to install several times-- It gets hung up when it reaches"Starting Services.")

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

How to download itunes update on to pc

hi unable to download new update on to my pc

Do you get an error message when you try to install iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

TS1702 Unable to download or update apps can some one help

Unable to download or update apps can some one help

Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.
For iOS 6 only ....Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

HT5318 unable to download iTunes 10.6.3

I am unable to download iTunes 10.6.3. I get this message:
The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.
Can you help?
Thank you

Hi Tidy,
So there are two words being used here - Update (which my laptop won't let me do
The word "Update" indicates to me that you are talking about installing a "Software Update", using the Software Update application provided as part of the Mac OS X system. This can be accessed in a variety of ways, including from the Apple Menu or from the System Preferences Software Update Preference pane.
updates) and Install - using the 10.6.3 I have just downloaded - so are you telling me to
The word "Install" here is used by you to indicate running a package installer that is bundled (wrapped) in a disk image (.dmg) file.
The short answer is, regarding the installation of the software update, is that these to ways of installing an update to a particular Apple application are identical in terms of what you end up with for that application. It doesn't matter which mechanism one uses to install the update.
The details of what the Software Update application does are something like this:
- it checks a database of what is installed on your computer system against Apple's database of what versions of applications are current for the version of Mac OS X installed on your computer, and the computer hardware itself
- it then offers to the user/system administrator, a list of available updates
- when an available update is chosen, such as iTunes 10.6.3, the Software Update application downloads either the same installer package contained in the disk image, or the disk image itself - I'm not 100% sure which.
- in either event, it then runs the installer package. This is the same installer package you run if you mount the .dmg disk image and run the installer package manually.
- the target application, located in the /Applications folder, is then updated.
in this case, the application iTunes would be updated from version 10.6.1 to version 10.6.3. There are none of your personal iTunes database files included in this application bundle, unless you have done something out of the ordinary and manually dropped files into the app bundle (unlikely, I think).
Your iTunes files are located in your home directory (folder), in the Music folder. These are largely unaffected by the upgrade of the iTunes application, except for the occasional new information that may be stored in your iTunes database that arrises from new functionalities of the iTunes application.
double click on 10.6.3 and install it in my applications folder - which will presumeably overwrite my 10.6.1 itunes?
So, as stated above, none of "your" iTunes stuff is located in the Applications folder. None of your music, movies, or settings are stored in the Applications folder.
cheers,
Roy
