Please check if file is checkout or locked , and if not then checkout it and then try to update -
$url= $webURL + $item.File.Url;
$file = $web.GetFile($url);
if($file.CheckOutType -eq "None" -And $file.LockType -eq "None")
$file.CheckOut();
also please try these option, may help -
1. Allow unsafe update at web
$web.AllowUnsafeUpdates=$true;
2. try systemupdate
$item.SystemUpdate($false)
