Unknown error (1630)

Hello,


I have just upgraded my iphone 4 to iOS 5.

I did this on my Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard (10.6.8 latest version).


Now whenever I connect the iPhone to my laptop and click 'Check for Update' in iTunes I get the following message:


iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iPhone. An unknown error occured (1630).


I am currently based in Algiers (Algeria) but never had this issue before using local sim cards (Carrier DZA NEDJMA).


When I switch Airplane Mode to ON and Check for Update it works but it might be a bug that needs fixing in iOS 5 especially as it used to work under iOS 4 without having to turn on Airplane Mode.


Has anyone incountered this issue? Any solutions?


Many thanks,


T

iPhone4, iOS 4, Macbook Pro
