When I check for an update my I pod says, "An error occurred while checking for a software update."

When I check for an update my ipod says, "An error occurred while checking for a software update."
   I have tried,
-Rebooting my ipod
-Hard rebooting
-Deleting some apps to get more memory
-Resetting network settings
-AND WAITING, but it still doesn't work
    CAN YOU HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????

I had a jailbroken ipod touch 4th generation, 8 Gigabyte model with about 150mb left of free storage. I tried checking for an update on my ipod touch using the OTA A LOT OF TIMES but it said, "an error occured while checking for a software update." I finally backed up my ipod to iCloud and iTunes and updated my ipod using my desktop PC. I now have an UNJAILBROKEN ipod running IOS 5.1.

  • HT1338 when I click on software update it says ''An error occurred while checking for updates.'' Why does it say that?

    So I bought a Powerbook G4 from a pawn shop and yes, I did check to see if it was still good. everything works fine but I need an update because I have OS X 10.3. So I connect to the internet and then I click on ''Software Update'' and I wait. But then a message opens saying ''An error occurred while checking for updates'' And I don't know why. HELP!!!

    Something temporarily wrong with your internet connection?
    Be aware that this is a very large file to download, it needs a strong consistent internet connection.
    Have the iPhone on the charger cable too.
    In the meantime read the threads in this forum about the visibility item and some other possible issues on the 4 and 4S (although a large number of people have these issues, it is still a minor percentage, but anyhow, be aware).

    my ipad says an error occurred while checking for software updates
    my ipad while trying to install updates has stalled it says installing but it is unable to download content??

    Try rebooting your iPad and then see if you have any success updating.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    This device does not have a sim card in it. Could this be the reason or am I missing something when I am trying to update.
    Yes. You can't update or restore any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim card need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. If you want to update, you need to get a sim card.

  • "software update"  "An error occurred while checking for updates"

    When I click on "Software Update", an error results, "An error occurred while checking for updates".  It is definitely connected to the internet.  I was gifted a G5 and I installed a new hard drive and loaded the OS, OS X 10.3.5.  That version of Safari does not display pages correctly.  E.g., support.apple.com/downloads just clocks on the righthand side of the page.
    Because cannot access that link, cannot manually update the OS - I was thinking this version is "old" and as a result, unable to connect to apple's update server.  Thanks.

    Thanks,  I upgraded with your info.
    Ultimately, I am trying to access mail.google.com but receiving  the following error with opera v9.5.x: Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version.
    Safari gives the following: Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version.

    Go to Wifi    Settings and then select your Wifi Network. Tap the blue arrow to go into Wifi settings and then select the DNS tab.
    Set the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and then go back to the software update page.
    This time it shall work.
    I tried it on an iPad 1 running iOS 5.0.1 but I am sure this shall help.
    Do rate me and reply if it works.

  • I cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet".plz help

    i cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet". But i checked my internet on both my pc and iphone and tried again but it still says the same thing. plzz plzz help

    Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
    Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.
