  • Unable to update to iOS 5 (Error Code 3194)

    I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.1 (8G4) according to my Settings.  I just tried to update to iOS 5 in iTunes (on Windows 7), but I got error 3194 when it tried to contact Apple's servers (Verifying Restore). 
    Now, before you ask, I have already:
    -Upgraded to iTunes 10.5 (newest version)
    -Disabled/Uninstalled my firewall and antivirus temporarily
    -Restarted my computer
    -Attempted to restore my iPhone without updating
    -Rebooted my modem and router
    -Unplugged other devices (webcam) from other USB ports
    -Tried a different USB port and my USB 2.0 Port
    I tried everything Apple's KB told me to do, but nothing is fixing the problem.  Suggestions?

    Not really.  I suppose you could try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as described here: windows xp, vista/windows 7, then reinstalling the latest version of iTunes to see if that fixes it...but I'm just guessing at this point.

  • Unable to update my  iOS on my iPad and iPhone.

    I am unable to update my iOS on my iPad and iPhone. Though I have had these devices and have been updating for over a year, the issue just started with this new release (iOS 5.1).
    When I connect my Pad and Phone to iTunes (Windows PC with Vista), I am told that an update is available. When I update, iTunes tries to connect to a server. Then I receive the message, "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad. The network connection could nopt be established."
    When I try to update the devices iOS using WiFi directly (not connected to iTunes). The devices say, "Checking for Update..." and does not connect. It says, "Unable to check for update...An error occurred while checking for a software update...Cancel or Try Again"

    I solved this by downlading the iOS update via wi-fi at another location other than my home. I would still like to know why this download did not work at my home as it has for over a year. I have made no changes in my firewall or security settings.

    What happens when you connect to computer and update via iTunes?
    The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows
    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    You need itunes 10 or later and that requires OSX 10.5.8 or later
    You have a 2G (vi the SN yo provided) and that can go as high as 4.2.1
