iTunes could not update the carrier settings...

Im getting the same error........I wonder if the server is getting killed. Im in central Florida btw

Are you connecting via a hub?

just a wireless router connected to my home network......kinda strange, still getting that same error message. Anybody else getting this?

Hi,

Try deleting the carrier settings update file mentioned in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1970 and then click check for updates/install the update again.

The carrier update files are stored in the following locations.

In Mac OS X:
/Users/[Username]/Library/iTunes/iPhone Carrier Support/

In Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\[Username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Carrier Support

In Windows Vista:
C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Carrier Support\ in Windows Vista.

Thanks. Gave it a try, but no luck....

Have you installed any 3rd-party software that may have modified the iPhone OS?
Can your computer connect to the iTunes Store and download something, like the FREE Single of the Week?

If you haven't already, try restarting your computer and/or testing on another computer.

I'm having the same problem 😟

What model of iPhone do you have? The Original iPhone does not support MMS (only the iPhone 3G and the iPhone 3GS do) - just reaching here, but that may be the issue. I actually just updated my carrier settings, worked flawlessly.

why when i receive an MMS message i get a text saying
"One or more of the message components have been deleted by mms Adaptation...."

what does it mean??

I'm getting the same error message as everyone else in this thread. I tried deleting the carrier file Jason mentioned but no luck at all. Is there any word on a fix for this problem?

Ok ...So I fixed this problem. After doing a factory restore I then reset my network settings. This is found under settings/general/reset/reset network settings. This may or may not work for everyone...I would suggest trying just the reset first as the restore takes a awhile:) Good Luck.

I was also getting the "cannot update carrier settings" message. I was about to hit the restore button in iTunes, but decided to try one more things first. With the message on screen asking me if I wanted to update the settings, I hit the home button on my phone and then the slider to unlock. With the screen now on, I hit the update button on the computer. Voilá, it updated! Maybe just a coincidence, but much easier than restore. Could it be possible that the phone has gone to sleep and updating the carrier settings doesn't wake it up?
