I left my iPhone connected last night so it could update while I was asleep, but when I looked this morning it had still only downloaded. Probably it was waiting for me to click OK to something and timed out.

My iTunes is refusing to recognize my network connection. When I try to go to the iTunes store, update my iPhone, or even go to help, I get the following error -

"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes (Store/Help/Update). The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, then try again".

I have rebooted, bounced my router, downloaded the most current version of iTunes... I'm out of ideas.

The status is NOT quo.

Suzi, fwiw, I was having those issues too, but the second time I plugged the iPhone in I told it to download only and not update, and now it’s working fine. I told it to update after it had downloaded.

How did you get to where you could download? I can't even look at the iTunes store or do anything that requires iTunes to go through the internet.

Huh. Sorry, Suzi, mine saw the store once I’d ejected the phone and started over again.

...May the iForce be with you?

Thanks le nub. It is downloading now. I still want to figure out why iTunes can't see my network connection. But one step at a time, right?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I can't even look at the iTunes store or do anything that requires iTunes to go through the internet.

It took me a couple of tries. I think they are experiencing much volume.

I updated my phone tonight only because I can now personalize my text tone. So it was worth the wait. I am a simple girl with simple needs.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

it looks like with iOS 5, we can have custom ring tones for voice mail and text message alerts! Bout time! My Razr did that YEARS ago. Thank you Apple!!!

Hallelujah! Of course, I have always said that have always been able to do it and they were saving that feature for when they needed to do an update and didn't really have anything :)
