Keep getting error, "Network Connection cannot be established". I thought last night was possibly do to,
server being busy. But at 06:30 this morning same error. MY info: Itunes 10.6, Iphone 4S 5.01 Connected directly to my Macbook and internet connection is fine. Does anyone have or had same issue or ideas?
THANK YOU!!!
As always with these issues, I'm amazed so many of us have the problems, and that the kind people here can so frequently bring success. Thanks again, to all involved. Phones had no problem, iPad just would not find the server. Changed DNS, and no more problem.
worked beautifully, too bad Applecare doesn't know about this...would have saved me a lot of time today monkeying around with them and finally being told by a supervisor that I might have to wait a month for the network to open up for downloading!
I have similar issues with updating Ipad 2, 4g Itouch and 3g Itouch. All three devices I tried to update to IOS 5.1 on 3/13/2012. They would not update via OTA or direclty thoughy my Mac Book. They only way I knew that there was an update available is because I take my 4g Itouch to work and it connected to the WiFi at work and told me to update to 5.1 and it did update at work. I went home to update my Ipad and 3g Itouch via OTA on my home WiFi. I got a network connection error on both devices. I attempted to hook both up to my Mac Book and update through Itunes. I received the same type error. I did have the most recent version of Itunes.
I looked on several Apple forums and found the the DNS settings could be a problem. I changed the DNS settings on the Ipad and Itouch 3G to 8.8.8.8. and was not able to update OTA. I changed the DNS on my Mac Book to the same and attempted to update via Itunes. I got the same network issues and was not able to update to 5.1. Today (3/14/2012) I took my Ipad2 to work and was able to update to 5.1 OTA with no problems with orginal DNS settings. I recently had my cable modem/WiFi replaced by Charter Cable. This is the first software update I attempted to do on it with these mobile devices.
In a nutshell I was able to update my Ipad 2 and Itouch 4g at work. I was not able to update any of these devices on my new cable modem/WiFi Charter Cable installed system at home regardless of the DNS settings. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Good Question. I left them changed at first.
Then, when we watched " Moneyball"
the HD quality was really fuzzy. When I deleted
the new DNS's and it reverted back to the default
ones, the movie quality was immediately
HD quality.
I probably could have gone to www.roku.com
and put the new DNS #'s there.
But this worked.
