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?
I am also having problem update my iPhone 3GS from iOS 5.0.1 to iOS 5.1: "Contacting the iPhone software update server..." this message just never succeeds. I am based in the UK.
I also tried last evening and again this afternnoon with no success. I also got prompted to download a number of Apple Apps (keynotes, pages, numbers) which are now not being updated as they are the wrong version.
Sorry this is not a solution but we need this problem sorted out quickly
Hi,
I'm having the same problems with "network connection cannot be established" when trying to update my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 to iOS 5.1
I took my phone to a friends house and used thier wireless connection (installing the update from the phone) and it installed ok, I'm going to take my iPad to their house tomorrow and see if I can update that as well.
As far as I am aware my internet connection is working perfectly, so I have no idea why it won't download for me using my connection.
I have pointed my DNS to OpenDNS DNS servers and this has resolved my problem it would appear that some ISP DNS servers are not ver good.....

I wish i knew what that meant, and how to do it. 😕
worked wonderfully!
Edit DNS and search domain settings
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mh14127.html
Means go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES>NETWORK>ADVACED>DNS
change DNS by adding ( + )
208.67.222.222
then
208.67.220.220
click okay/apply after. then try the update. after the update, just delete the two open DNS server numbers. should revert back to your old one.
Thanks a lot, its downloading now, stupid question, but do I just leave those settings I have just put in when I've downloaded the update???
That is upto you I have left mine in you might find it wil iprove your internet experience.. 😉
Thanks, the update has downloaded now and is installing, I'm looking forward to intstalling iPhoto.
Do I try that from my computer and then try the download on my phone or do the download through itunes?
I downloaded it through itunes
Worked perfectly! thanks!
I keep getting "Network Connection cannot be established" when attempting to download the 5.5 update just like everyone else. Nothing helps so far. Like to go back to pencil and paper records.
