Updating to iOS 5, getting error 1602 message...

Hey all,
as like many i've been having trouble updating my iPhone to iOS 5.
I've been getting the error code 1602.  I've read online that everyone is getting error 3200 resulting from overloaded servers.
Is the 1602 error happening because of the servers or is this a different error altogether?
Anyone know how to get around this? My phone is currently in Recovery Mode...updates continue to get the same error 1602
Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks!

I have the same problem, error 1602, when trying to update to the latest iOS 5.
I have a Macbook Pro running Windows 7 64-bit, running Kaspersky anti-virus, the new iTunes (12 October 2011), and an iPhone 4 (32 GB).
1) Last night the first problem I had was a failure to backup the iPhone, so I gave up.
2) Today, I managed to backup the iPhone, but then it froze in the Recovery Mode (see image #4 in the 2nd article below), and was unrecognized by iTunes.
- I disabled my Kaspersky anti-virus software (which has caused problems always in the past with all other iPhone iOS updates and downloads)
- I restarted iTunes twice, but it failed to recognize the iPhone
- I did a forced restart (holding the home button + on/off button) and it managed to finally get it recognized, and then it asked to restore, which it is doing.
- It restored to factory settings, and it is now recognized in iTunes again and it is restoring from the backup (5 mins +/-).
- Now it has rebooted and is finalizing the Restore (very long and vague amount of time, depending on the size of data (music, apps, etc) to transfer.
I have clicked through these Apple Support articles already for guidance:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275 - The first support I read, but I knew my USB wasn't the problem.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1602  - The most helpful so far
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - This is what I then tried, by doing a forced restart
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 - Additional resources if needed
This seems to have worked for now, it is still copying over the content from the backup. I hope it is iOS 5 on it!
Good luck, such an annoying process, I really hate installing the new iOS, there are ALWAYS problems.
DMR.

  • Whenever I update from Windows 7 get error 1602, iPod shows USB connection to iTunes, but iTunes will not recognize the device. None of the Apple documentation helps.

    Whenever I update from Windows 7 get error 1602, iPod shows USB connection to iTunes, but iTunes will not recognize the device. None of the Apple documentation helps. The Apple Mobile Device driver is loaded and operating. The anti-virus software and firewall are not at fault (were uninstalled, and made no difference). The iTunes on my older machine running Vista does recognize the inoperative iPod (iTunes has detetced an iPod in recovery mode) and allows me to restore the device. Can anyone help to resolve this problem on the Windows 7 PC?

    So yu tried all of this:
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error:
    Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
    Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
    This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    If you had then time for an appointment at ther Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS3694 trying to update to ios 7 getting error msg.  any suggestions?

    trying to update to ios 7, and after partial download getting message "you do not have permission to access the requested resource" any suggestions?

    All of Apple's servers...including the activation servers are pretty much flooded with users like you doing the same thing. Be patient and keep at it...or wait till the traffic to them has decreased and then try again. Coming back to it tomorrow  (if that's a viable option for you) will likely increase your chances of not having issues.

  • I can't update itunes. I get error message can't find "itunes.msi". What can I do?

    What can I do to download updated itunes. I get error message can't locate "itunes.msi." folder.

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • After update apple tv 2 on itunes and get error 1602 i start my apple tv and see no contents or any programs there just i see settings and computers?

    after update my apple tv 2 and get error 1602 on itunes, i start it and found no content showing there only settings and computers?
    please any answer.
    my itunes is the latest.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, a number of users appear to have encountered this problem. Some of these users have reported that the problem just disappears the following day or shortly after. Other users have found various other solutions to this problem.
    Firstly, are you receiving any date and time errors when you turn on your Apple TV?
    Check that you are properly connected to the Internet, by ensuring that you have a proper IP address and not one starting with 169. Also check that your location for the iTunes Store is set correctly, if so you might try changing it and then changing it back.
    If the problem persists try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router, or if this doesn't work you might like to try a restore.

    I updated to I0S6 but when I go to update my apps I get error message that I need IOS5! Why am I getting that message after already updating to IOS6?

    The Apps are probably a bit behind and have not been updated to work with iOS6 yet.

  • How do you download when you keep getting error 7 messages?

    how do you download/upgrade itunes ? I have tried downloading from the web page and automatically download off computer. I keep getting error 7 messages.
    What can be done?

    So, the article suggests this -
    Configure your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Did you go to the next security software link, update the time and check the ports?
    An easy quick fix you can try without running throuh the security software article, is try restoring from another computer or uninstall the security software on your computer.

    Hi wdriver,
    It seems like due to some unknown reason permission from the Licensing folder is removed. Please try launching any of the apps by right clicking and select Run as an Administrator, it should fix the issue by doing that.
    Please let us know if it helps.

    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
    Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.
