Updating of software
why is there an error "The network connection timed-out" when i update my ipod software to IOS 5.0.1
Disabling the computer's security software during the download and update usually resolves that error.

I have a new laptop, and have copied over my existing itunes libary, but when i connect my ipad, and go to update the software to the new version it warns me that it will wipe all my apps etc..... How can i stop this from happening and make my new laptop the "home" for my ipad??
Any help gratefully received! :-)Macs use an application called Migration Assistant to copy material from the old Mac to the new one. The macs are connected together and each runs Migration Assistance and the user chooses what stuf to copy onto the new Mac.
Unfortunately I do not know how to do this between pcs or between a Mac and a Pf or even if it's even possible. -
I have a macbook pro, and am trying to update my software. I recently bought an iphone 5, and my software is to out of date to sync my phone with itunes. I currently am running 10.5.8 and I need to update to atleast 10.6.8. Just wondering if I need to purchase it from apple or if there is an easy/free way to update it.
you need to purchase it: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It is only on a disk, not in download form.

I updated my software in my iPad, can't connect to App Store or iTunes, It says that I have to change to US account, right now I'm in Mexico, how can I change it to my US account
Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist. -
My iphone 3g does not work after updating the software through itunes
Some days ago I made a security copy of my iPhone 3G at iTunes. Today when I conected my iPhone to iTunes I had a message saying I had to update the software of my phone. I accepted and after around 30 minutes of update I got another message saying there had been a problem restarting my phone. The screen of my mobile was showing the iTunes icone and the USB icone and I can't access to the content of it. So I disconnected the mobile from iTunes and connected it again and I got another message saying iTunes has detected a mobile phone in recovering process and it says I have to restaure the iPhone to be able to use it in iTunes. And, by the way, before all this when I connected my phone to iTunes the iTunes recognized the name of my mobile. It doesn't anymore, it just says "iPhone" on the left column.
My question is: Should I restaure the iPhone? Will I be able to recover the security copy I made some days ago? Where can I access that copy?
Thank you so much in advance!
BYou're welcome.

When restoring the iPhone with iTunes, the iPhone is completely erased first folllowed by the current iOS version being re-installed. After iOS is reinstalled, you are prompted to restore from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. The other available selection is to restore as a new iPhone or not from the backup. -
I currently have a mac version 10.4.11 (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo), and I am unable to download the new version of itunes or sync my iphone with this. How do i go about updating my software? My computer says no system updates available.
You need to purchase a retail disc. 10.5 Leopard is expensive and hard to come by. If your machine meets the requirements for 10.6 Snow Leopard, I would jump right to that. Here are the minimum requirements to run Snow Leopard:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
See here for more info: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Call you local Apple store if you live near one and ask if they have any retail copies of Snow Leopard. if they don't you can order it from Apples website: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A -

How do I update the software on my Airport Express?
Hello everyone,
I have an Airport Extreme base station acting as WDS and an Airport Express station. I recently upgraded the security on the Airport Extreme base station from 128-WEP to WPA (Personal), but I don't know whether I have to do something to the Airport Express base station. It's green light is on. Do I need to do something? Also, how do I update the software in the Express? Whenever I open the Airport Admin Utility, the only thing that comes up on a scan is my Extreme base station. Any advice would be most appreciated.yes you need to update your Airpost Express. I just went through this last week with two of my Airport Expresses. I updated my Base and my Remote's light was green but was unable to view it in Airport Admin Utility. So this is what I ended up doing and it works great.
First bring the Airport Express you are working on in the same room as your computer......just the ease of seeing what is going on with the Airport Express. Next you need to reset it.....take a paper clip and push in the little button next to the Audio port and hold in 10 seconds. Then unplug the unit wait 10 seconds and plug it back in. wait about 3 minutes and then you will need to use Airport Set Up Assistant. You will need to make sure you have WPA Personal on your Airport Express too.
don't forget to make sure you have the update firmware too.

I hope this helps.....

How do i update the software on my ipod touch? i went to settings, then general, but theres no option called software updates.
You needing to be running iOS 5 or later in order to do a Software Update from the device. To run iOS 5 you need a 3G or 4G iPod Touch. So if you really have a 4G iPod Touch, connect it to iTunes and you should be prompted about an update to its version of iOS.

How do i update the software on an ipad provided by the company without syncing to my itunes?
I have an iPad2 provided by my employer based out of Arizona. I want to update the software to the most current available. I do not have access to the iTunes account used to set up the device, and if I use my iTunes, I will loose the apps and data installed on teh device when it was issued to me.
