iOS 5 Now Available [Download Links]
iOS 5 has just been released by Apple. The hotly anticipated update brings a variety of major new features to the iOS platform, including Notifications, iMessage, wireless syncing, iCloud support, Twitter integration, Reminders, in addition to over 200 overall feature updates or enhancements.
You can update to iOS 5 through iTunes, plug in your device and launch iTunes and you will get an update notification. Be sure to backup your existing iOS installation before proceeding.
Download iOS 5
Other than updating through iTunes, you can also download iOS 5 IPSW directly from the links below and install the firmware manually.
- iPhone 3GS
- iPhone 4 GSM
- iPhone 4 CDMA
- iPhone 4,1 (4S?)
- iPad
- iPad 2 WiFi
- iPad 2,2 – GSM
- iPad 2,3 – CDMA
- iPod touch 3G
- iPod touch 4G
- Apple TV2
Build number is 9A334, these links are hosted on Apple’s servers, if you are having trouble downloading IPSW, right-click and choose “Save As”.
Apple TV 2 has also been updated, but is technically on iOS 4.4 with a custom build of 9A334v.
iOS 5 is compatible with iPad, iPad 2, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 CDMA & GSM, and iPod touch 3rd and 4th generations. iOS 5 also marks the first time that the CDMA and GSM builds of iOS are the same version. All new Apple hardware including iPhone 4S will ship with iOS 5 pre-installed.

How do I update it after downloading it?
Hi there. I wonder if anyone can help me. I’ve been trying to update my iPad (first gen) and iPod with the new ios 5. It has taken several hours of downloading with my iPad attached when the whole system crashed. I am attempting the same thing with the iPod, to no avail. The device has been plugged in overnight. The “download” process was over and “backing up” had begun but after an hour or so, the laptop just switched off (crashed). This has happened twice now (not counting the episodes with the iPad).
Can someone advise me on what to do?
Thanking you in advance.

I used iTunes 10.6 , it is still giving the same error . How can I resolve it ?

Hi everybody,
I have updated my iphone 4g from ios 4.3 to IOS 5.0.1(9A405) , modem firmware 04.11.08. and after that it becomes ipod and not picking my sim . does anybody has an idea that how can I repair it?
my iphone carrier is AT&T.
Whenever I try to update the ios using the file, it keeps saying that the firmware is not compatible even after I typed .ipsw after. Help?
Too many dumb people here…
Updating ios 5 is so simple like that…
I only need one hour to do this all home work.
Too easy for me
to change the zip file to ipsw u need to go to my computer then go to tools folder and options (for windows xp) for vista and windows 7 u may go to organize and folders and search option. then go to view, search for “hide extensions for known file type” untick this. apply and ok.. u may see the download firmware will show .zip change this .zip to .ipsw
hope this help sorry for my bad english.. :)
I did but the answer now is the firmware file is not
compatible
Hello! I have just learned about this site and I have finished downloading the file. It’s in .ipsw and I know the steps: go to iTunes, connect my device, hold Shift and click Update, then locate the installer. But it doesn’t work. Always error 3002 or 3149.
Do I still need an Internet connection while installing it?
Cydia is just a white box that won’t open

Hi Folks,
there’s something i dont understand.
When doing a restore (via shift,restore) itunes searches for a ipsw file,but the files i can download above are dmg files. How the heck can i do a restore then? And more strange; why does nobody mention this and just heads on saying you can do a restore wich you just can’t with a few clicks? I know dmg files are apple files but i just cant find any program that can work with them since im on windows.
Sorry for my “angry” mode but im stuck in a restore and i can’t get out of it ;) (because of the dmg files)
Thank You So Much!!
hi i downloaded for my gsm network and previously when i downloaded with idm i got a zip file and with zip file we can not proceed by changing extension and downloading again with idm still didnt work dnt know why may b due to some error but it didnt work. then i tried the mozilla and downloaded without idm so it downloaded .ipsw file and it worked.
setup started manually by pressing shift button and clicking on restore restore stared but i had an error 1630.
could not check for carrier setting :(
please do help me i m tired with this
Hi, My son has an iPad2 for school and they removed the iTunes. The only computer I have is from work and will not allow me to download iTunes. If I download the Update from this site, do I download it to my computer? or straight to his iPad2?
If it is downloaded to the computer, how do I get it updated on the iPad2?
Without iTunes you can’t update, you need to install iTunes.
YOU ARE MY SAVIOR!!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!
I wanna say thank you ,,
how do you know if your phone is cdma or gsm?
AT&T is GSM, Verizon and Sprint are CDMA. It’s just the network you use.
ahhhh thank you so much!
once youve downloaded the file how do you get it to update your phone
Is there any reason you’re not updating directly through iTunes? It’s much easier than manually updating with IPSW files.
everytime i downloaded the file or tried it at the very end when it processing the file it gives me error internet connection timed out and i turned my firewall off and still did the same thing
Finally! It works!
Thank you so much! ^^
i want to update my itouch 3 generation im running ios 4 and i would like to switch for ios5 i wanna make sure if is works fine before i made the update please someone help me ….!!

thank u Aaron ur tip worked for my ipad
So I waited a year to get my new iPad 2 and was so excited to get it last week!…until I went home and realized I bought a computer that needs a computer(annoying) and so it was super hard to find a computer. When I did I then got my iPad started and bought a iTunes gift card to get iMovie which I NEED tomorrow ( because I promised my friend a year ago I would edit a video we are making) and it says I need iOS 5. And so then I didn’t know what it was so I looked it up and it brought me here, now it says that safari can’t download the file! I’m tired and annoyed and my friend is mad at me and won’t talk to me! PLEASE HELP ME!
I suggest you plug it into iTunes and click on “UPDATE” when it asks you to update to iOS 5. A new iPad 2 should have shipped with iOS 5 included though.

Hi am relatively new to the concept of updating..
I have an Original iPad and want to update it to iOS5 using the ipsw provided here..can any body tell my if the ‘ipsw’ s provided here will jailbreak my device or will actually load the official firmware onto my ipad will all the restrictions of apple.
It is very important for me to know this as i do not want to jail break my ipad.
So would be highly obliged if a reply iz provided to my query.
Simply upgrading to iOS 5 has nothing to do with a jailbreak, these updates are from Apple as the article states. You would be best served by updating directly through iTunes if you do not know what to do with IPSW files.
So I still cannot get the iOS5 to download on my phone. When I open iTunes and the message there is a new 5.0 version do you want to install it.. I have clicked download and update and it took four hours but said it has installed onto my computer, but it will not update on my phone. When I tried to do the shift, update it brings open a browser to my computer, but it is not in any files. Help!
Hi, plz help. I download the file as a .zip but when I rename it through explorer in Vista to .ipsw, Vista simply adds the .ipsw ext to the filename so I still can’t see the file through the update box e.g.C:\IOS5\iPhone2,1_5.0_9A334_Restore.ipsw.zip
Any idea how to get rid on the .zip extention is Vista?
Download it in firefox or chrome. Not Internet Explorer, otherwise it makes it a .zip file and you can’t easily change it to .ipsw
Thanks guys…

It does work!!! I tried 5 times yesterday via iTunes to update my iphone to iOS 5 but got the same timeout message everytime after I downloaded it for hours. I was so frustrated and mad. However, this manual updating method does work and only took me about 1.5 hours to complete everything and started using my new iOS5. Thanks so much!!!
All who experienced ERROR 3002
Simply after downloading ios 5 copy it in download folder.
then open itunes attach your phone it will show i phone.now keep shift button pressed and right click over restore.follow it with a right click on updates.all along this procedure keep shift button compressed.
Guys i managed to update my iphone 4 to ios 5 this way without any problem.it was pretty quick,swift and accurate so far.

Help!?
Are you downloading the correct firmware file for your iPhone?
iOS 5 is not compatible with iPhone 1 or 3G or iPod Touch 1 or 2G
Wow I am so excited that I finally got iOS 5 installed on my iPhone 4!! Been trying in-itunes download but it is extremely slow so I decided to update via the download link.
To those who still haven’t update your iDevices, here’s some tips:
1. Backup your iDevices before doing any updates!
2. ‘Shift’ + ‘Restore’ instead of ‘Shift’ + ‘Update’ (this is why backup is important since you have to restore your device and ‘Restore’ can solve error 3002)
3. Be patient! But for me, it takes only 3 hours to done with update to iOS 5!
Good luck to everyone!
Thanks, I clicked on your link and found info:
1) Connect your iOS 5 compatible device
2) Right click device on updated iTunes.
3) Choose ‘Backup’ and wait for all your files to backed up
4) Download iOS 5 iswp file
5) Hold shift and click restore, locate the iswp file
6) your prompted to restore after backup – click restore
Jobs a gooden
Error 3002 – manually dl tried update using shift key. Starts to extract resulting in error 3002. Have carried out many dl’s from Itunes and from this site with no luck. Run a diagnostic check using itunes and it states that current user is not an administrator, which is strange as Im the only user set up on it. check under users in control panel to confirm this which states I am. What do I do now???? I have also disable my firewall and internet security. ANY IDEAS ANYONE?????

Hi. Have iPad2 Wi-Fi, non-jailbroken. Running iTunes 10.5 on Windows 7 PC. Downloaded iOS5 manually with DAP. Copied file iPad2,1_5.0_9A334_Restore.ipsw to … \iTunes\iPhone Software Update, held down “SHIFT” key and clicked on “Update” (tried it with restore too). Message: “This iPad could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible.” Rebooting iPad (while connected) didn’t help. Please help.
Make sure you download the correct IPSW file for iPad 2 Wi-Fi model, don’t use Internet Explorer, and do right-click “Save As”
http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/041-9618.20111012.Zxb22/iPad2,1_5.0_9A334_Restore.ipsw
Try saving it to your desktop and selecting it manually rather than moving it to the iTunes folder.
Hi M,
Thanks for the info. Was excited about the link, as it is the first time in days that I could download (without an accelerator) the full file without disrupted connections.
Followed it through, but it still renders “This iPad could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible.”
I definitely have an iPad2 Wi-Fi. The old version on it confirms such: iPad2,1_4.3.5_8L1_Restore.ipsw
Again, thanks for your trouble.
I’m having the same issue. I tried repeatedly to update from within iTunes and got failure after failure. I used the published links to download the appropriate file for my iPad 2 WiFi. The downloaded file is .ipsw format, per the Properties info box.
I did as instructed – held down the shift key while clicking update within iTunes and navigated to my downloaded file, which I left right where it had landed. iTunes seemed to like that fine, but then gave me the 3002 error. I tried a few times and got the same result. Now what do I do?
There is no such folder at \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates. In fact, mine ends after Users\ and then just shows my documents, music, etc.
What can I do?!
I’m on Windows 7, a pretty new and hearty machine.
I am getting an error 43 when I try and update to iOS 5. I want to do a manual update and have backed up but I want to know what information I am going to lose. Will it keep text messages, music, contacts, notes etc. I don’t want to update if I am going to loose a lot of info on my iPhone 3GS.
Thanks.

I tried to upgrade the operating system to IOS 5, But when i clicked into iTunes, It only shows 4.3.5, Is there another way to upgrade the system?
You need to update your iTunes to 10.5.
Why am I being told that my firmware is not compatable? I have a factory unlocked iPhone 4 but this is the message that i’m being told…Any help would be greatly appreciated
im having the same problem
Connect your iPhone or iOS device to your computer
Select the device in iTunes
On a Mac, hold down the “Option” key and then click on “Update”
On a Windows PC, hold down “SHIFT” key and then click on “Update”
Select the IPSW file you downloaded and click “Choose”
Let the iOS device update as usual
You can also click on “Restore” and select an IPSW instead but you will lose the existing files and settings on your iOS device.
Is this Instructions for Jaibroken iphones or just regular.

I updated my 3gs to ios 5 and it worked great until the end where it had a sync issue with one thing. It asked do I want to sync with my Address Book or Tim’s Iphone. I checked my phone and it updated to ios 5 and still had my contacts so I clicked the button resolve later. Anyone else see this? And also if I sync my phone again and it happens again, which one should I choose? I don’t understand what it’s asking. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim
Ok. This is a dumb question, but i am not a super computer person so after i download it what do it do?
Downloaded the update for my 3GS using the links posted here. Connected by phone, fired up iTunes and clicked on shift+update, choose the downloaded file and hit ok. Approx 10 mins later I have iOS5.
Worked without a hitch.

i have installed ios 5, and having problem with caller ID. can anyone help me here? thanks
I have the same problem. Facing the caller id issue with some contacts only not with all. Although all my contacts numbers are saved with international code prefix, some are showed correctly, and some are not. Usually the calling process should recognize the number either with adding the prefix code or without. But not anymore after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.
Any help?
Thanks,
@courtney – I had other folders in my Photo app that I created via WinXP Explorer. The update deleted all of those folders, but didn’t delete the main Photo folder – Camera Roll
Did the update delete any of your contacts in your address book?
No – it didn’t appear to delete any contacts, but everything has been moved to the iCloud. I am thinking that iTunes is defaulting everything to my macbook as the source when syncing with the cloud. I’m going to switch it back when I get home and see if my calendar comes back from Yahoo.
Thank you
It deleted my contacts off of my phone, but they are on my macbook pro, so I can get them back on… somehow. ;)
I was just wondering that if I downloaded the 5.0 update will this delete my pictures, contacts, or songs off of my phone?
Updating though iTunes will not, manually updating with the IPSW will restore the phone to a blank state with which you must then manually restore from your backup.
Just be sure to backup your iPhone beforehand in either case.
I have an iPhone 4. Always updated/synced my calendar/contacts/etc with Yahoo via iTunes. Updated to iOS 5 last night and turned on the iCloud service. Today I noticed that my Calendar on my iPhone is empty. It appears that the update is no longer using my Yahoo calendar, but using my OS X calendar (which I don’t use). Do I need to turn iCloud service off to get my calendar back?
Did you get any answers on this? The iOS 5 did the same thing to my Yahoo calendar on my iPhone 4. Oddly enough the calendar info is still fine on my iPad 2 but the calendar on my iPhone is completely empty. It won’t even let me select the yahoo calendar when I’m in the calendar, even though I have the yahoo calendar turned on in settings. Someone please help! My life is on that calendar. Yes, I had it on my iPad but I need it on my iPhone. Ugh.
No replies yet. I think it is gone. I think that during the set up of iOS 5 when I selected the iCloud option, it wiped out any type of selection for syncing with Yahoo. What I am doing as a work-around – is sync my Mac calendar with Yahoo. Then that syncs with iCloud and my iPhone. Only problem is that with events set on Yahoo, you can’t alter/delete them on the iPhone. And if you create events on the iPhone, they don’t get synced back to Yahoo.
Now I am investigating bad battery life.
Not a happy camper
Battery life seems better today. I read somewhere that it is the Locations Services, specifically for the Weather app, that is causing the problem. So I went in to Location Services, and turned it off for a number of apps that I don’t use regularly. Battery life has lasted more like normal.

Hey..I just updated lion to 10.7.2 and iTunes to 10.5. I plug in my 3G iPod touch and hit update, and it says my 4.2.1 (jailbroken) software is up to date.
Am I missing something? Do I need to restore since it is jailbroken? I’ve unplugged and plugged in the iPod a few times.
no issue at old this model of ipod id too old and doesnt have any new upgrades to download. 4.2.1. is where your version got off the bus.
sorry that was kind of confusing to me, i am also having the same problem as tim. i have a 3rd gen iPod touch which is supposed to be compatible with iOS 5 right? but it still says 4.2.1 is the current version.
Looks like it is true. If your ipod touch “3rd generation” is an 8gb, it is still considered 2nd gen. Check back of your ipod.. search the model number “a1288” — 2nd gen.
WHAT DOUCHES!
>If your ipod touch “3rd generation” is an 8gb, it is still considered 2nd gen
Are you kidding?? that is just bull
so this means my 3rd gen 8Gb ipod touch will never get ios5? :( :(
so not fair!
Apple site says ipod 3rd and 4th gen are compatible.
The site also says that iPod 3rd Gen. is not available in 8 GB Variants. Look here :
“http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1353”
is this beta version??
No, this is the final release.
after downloading is05 from mentioned apple server,how to upgrade ipad2 for ios5 ? is it required to place ipsw in ..AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPad Software Updates ?
Leave the ios folder alone. All you have to do is shift restore and click on said file. This will resolve.
Hi I am running iOS5 beta 7 on my device how to get the released version on iOS 5 on my phone . My Itunes does not detects the update when i connect my phone.
you have to manually remove itunes and then completely reinstall. By doing this is will not recognize and will allow restore. Enjoy!!!
You can either restore back to iOS 4.3.5 or you can just manually update to iOS 5 using the IPSW.
I went for a different method:
1.) Download iTunes 10.5 and install over 10.5b7 (not necessary to remove old iTunes first)
2.) Download the appropriate IPSW from the links above and install.
3.) Enjoy.
This is the way I’m going. Hope it works.
Thanks! worked well for my Ipad iOS 5.0 upgrade
anyone else have problems trying to connect to a wifi connection?
I have problem connecting to internet using wifi after updating to ios5..anyone can help?
same here. My ipad 2 just acts like it’s trying to connect continuously. Any ideas?
I am having this problem too when I was going through the set up and then when I gave up and went to settings- it finds my home wifi, looks connected on the top bar but it definitely isn’t connected to anything. When trying to set it up, it just continuously spins next to the wifi name and never ticks it. My wifi is fine with my laptop.
Same problem….
I have this problem too, any solutions? My macbook air is fine..
Ryan- even though itunes says update 4.x.x is available, click update and it will open another box that states 5.0 is available.. I had the same issue….
Hey People!!Some problem here..please check lion recovery software update and OS update(@Software update on your computer)!Did that now its fixed…
I have an iPhone 4 with older iOS 4.2.1. Do I need to be upgrading to 4.3.5 before getting iOS 5? iTunes keeps prompting me there is 4.3.5 update rather than 5 until now.
I dont think you’ve updated itunes to 10.5
Another tip, if you’ve already downloaded the update via iTunes, you can use that to update your phone. Just search for the .ipsw file on your computer. I found it at C:\Users\myname\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iPod Software Updates\ (I have an iPod Touch). Just shift-click on restore, and use that file.
Dear, If I download it from another server , shall I unzip the file and rename it ? or just rename it ti .ipsw ???
The file is not zipped, it simply needs a .ipsw file extension
thanks it worked
Hey, what’s the difference between iPhone 4 GSM, iPhone 4 CDMA, and iPhone 4,1 (4S?)? I’m using an iphone4, which of the three should I be downloading?
Sir
GSM , and CDMA are the way that the mobile provider give it to you , you can check your freinds which one you are on .
GSM= ATT
CDMA = Verizon
CDMA vs GSM depends on the carrier. If you use a SIM card like with AT&T or T-Mobile, it’s a GSM provider. CDMA’s are like China Telecom and Verizon.
what if i don’t have a sim card in my iphone? can i still upgrade it?
The option to hide the sms message on locked screen disappear. Hope Apple will fix this rapidly.
Finally, that option is moved to the “notification” section.
I tried to update my iPhone4 through iTunes. I got the error 3002. I tried to solve this by following the link provided by iTunes, which was restart your mac, and know iTunes won’t even show that my iPhone is connected to the my mac. What to do?
My iphone is also jammed, because I can’t even shut it down at the moment…
Help!!!
I am not jailbroken but the jailbroken apps and stuff ar still on the iphone is that a problem ?
!! I tried to update but then a message came with a red cross in a little box failed to restore or something??? Help please
You must download iTunes 10.5
will this wipe my iphone 4 if i try to install manually with the restore option?
Yes, you will need to then restore from a backup
This may be a really dumb question, but how do I know which firmware to download. I have an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2.
If you have At&t download the GSM option, Verizon with the other
Not a dumb question you will need the iphone 3,1 5.0 and for the ipad if ATT then youeither have wifi or 3G. The 3g ipad is 2,2 and the wifi is 2,1. Hope this helps. As always download firmwares from FELIXBRUNS.de
Downloaded the IPSW for the iPhone4 from the links given above because the download through iTunes 10.5 was painfully slow.
However, hitting Option+Update / Restore and browsing to the file returned an error. So copied the IPSW to the “~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates/” (without quotes) folder. Restarted iTunes and hit ‘Update’. Even that did not work.
Re-downloading through iTunes now…
Hey Rash,
How do you re-download through iTunes? I can’t find the option to do that. Whenever I hit update, it think its already got it downloaded and I get error 3002.
i tried rename it ending with .ipsw so i update via itune hold shift look for the file but how come the file that i just rename .ipsw, it became .ipsw.zip thus give me the 3002 error
Make sure the file is just .ipsw, sometimes Windows will attach a .zip during the download process. Saving As and checking the name can usually prevent that.
matt i downloaded the ipsw pls tell me how to update it
Ruh Roh.
Didn’t update. Got through the d/l, backup & sync, iPhone is trying to restore and…
kaput.
This took 2 hours.
sounds like there’s either a corrupt download, or bad interaction between iTunes/computer/iphone.
bummer
I am also getting the error 3002 when attempting the update on my iPhone 4 – threw the error when I tried both “update” and “restore” options…
Any advice?
From iTunes, try clicking “Restore” while holding down Option (Mac) or Shift (Windows), rather than update. I put together a quick walkthrough:
https://osxdaily.com/2011/10/12/fix-error-3002-during-ios-5-update/
Also, be sure to check your hosts file and unblock any Apple servers, if you have used them in the past for jailbreaking purposes.
so it will delete all the files?
i recieved that error too. I then told itunes to “download only” when i hit update the next time. it downloaded fast and update worked fine!!
someone can help me i got an erron 3002, when trying to update i got the same code with mi iphone, ipod and ipad , some advice? thanks
Just want to confirm, this is the version that was released today, correct? Seeing that it’s got “_Restore” in the name, want to make sure that it won’t erase my iphone.
[…] iOS 5 update – for iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch […]
Hi, can you please help me, I’m encountering error 3194, after donwloading the IOS5 in the itunes and clecking the update after a few minutes it says Error 3194.
how can I fix this? what is the cause of this problem?
Thanks
jap, I’m getting that error too. Apple recommends that we disable any AV or Firewall software, which I’ve tried 2x with no luck. I tried pulling down the IPSW file via Firefox, and that crashed as well.
Do a restore to original first, it is because you have jailbroken that this happens. Happened to me too, I restored to original and it worked. If you have jailbroken you get this error on upgrading on some devices.
could you please tell me how to restore to original please?
You should try putting it in DFU or recovery mode to fix this error. I had the same error too.
To put it into DFU mode make sure the device is off. Hold the power button for three seconds, without releasing the power button hold the home button for 10 seconds. Then release the power button but not the home. Wait for iTunes to say ‘iPod in Recovery mode. You must restore before it can be used.’
Recovery is easier. Make sure your device is ON and PLUGGED IN to your computer. Hold the home button and power button together until you see the startup sign (apple logo) then release the power button and keep holding the home button until it says connect to iTunes.
Hoped this helped.
mustafa pls how do i update it i have already downloaded it but not through itunes through one of the links so pls can u teach me how to update it
Local IPSW File Locations
Any iPhone IPSW files that you have already downloaded from iTunes are stored locally on your machine. You can access these directly at the following locations:
Mac OS X: ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
Windows Vista & Windows 7: \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates
How to use IPSW files
You can use IPSW files on Mac or Windows, both require iTunes.
Connect your iPhone or iOS device to your computer
Select the device in iTunes
On a Mac, hold down the “Option” key and then click on “Update”
On a Windows PC, hold down “SHIFT” key and then click on “Update”
Select the IPSW file you downloaded and click “Choose”
Let the iOS device update as usual
You can also click on “Restore” and select an IPSW instead but you will lose the existing files and settings on your iOS device.
please help1.. my iphone 4 is nos down.. tried to restore since i got an error while updating ioS5.. but then i also got error 3259 when i click the restore button.. what will i do now?..
can u pls help me.. Iphone 4 now down.. got error 3259 when i clicked the restore button.. i cant use my phone anymore.. :-(
after many failed attempts it was really frustrating. but when i read your advice and followed everything, updating was a breeze. thank you so much!
I tried this and now my ipod no longer works at all.
This happened to me. Found out it was because I’d previously rolled back to an older f/w and i’d left the saurik server ip in the hosts file. Just google ‘restore hosts file to default’, microsoft have a fix program for it ;)
i have downloaded the ios 5 but not through itunes through the link but how do i update it?
Hold option (mac) or shift (windows) while you click “restore” in itunes after plugging in your ipad. A file selection window will open and you can select the file you downloaded.
can i use redsnow
thank you .
ipad 2,2 is GSM
ipad 2,3 is CDMA
Thanks, updated accordingly.
matt how did u update it, i have downloaded the update but not through itunes the ipsw,but i dnt know how to update it
@jacob
Connect your device and go to the summary page.
you’ll find an update button.
press “SHIFT”+”Update”. iTunes will ask you to browse for the file
I Had download with IDM but when I’m trying to update (Shift+Update) cant update, errors (3002)

[…] iOS 5 is out now! You can download iOS 5 here or through […]
Thanks, itunes was painfully slow and the network time out thing is also annoying! thanks again!
I have tried all morning to download but get the time out message after 15 minutes and have restarted again. What do I do to get it downloaded and continue after it downloads instead of saying it timed out
SAME PROBLEMS: I had the same problems many times last night because Apple’s server was
overloaded with millions of people trying to download.
SOLUTIONS: You can trick
their server like this: while downloading iOS 5, try to surf around
their iTunes store. Hence, Apple’s server won’t time you out. Make sure
you click frequently. Don’t stay idle more than 15 seconds.
The best way is try to watch a
free video tutorials from iTunes U. Because it is streaming, so the
server keeps keep you connected. You will complete downloading in about 30
minutes (in my case). Good luck!
My phone is doing the same thing. It did it when i had to update to the 4.3.5 version as well. You have to download it from the apple site not from iTunes and make sure it comes in as a ipsw if u download it using safari it will automatically do that for you. if you are using internet explorer it will want to download it as a zip fire if it does then u can rename it and change the fire from being a zip to an ipsw. once its downloaded save the file then open I tunes put your mouse over the restore button hold the shift button click the right mouse and then click your iOS 5 update and it will up load that way .
thanks very much for that tip! It finally worked, after one too many attempts :)
how do you download it from apple
brilliant advice – works perfect thanks
all you need to do is download which ever version you have the GSM or CDMA then save the file. then plug your phone in and instead of trying to update it through iTunes hold shift then click restore. then it will bring up the open box select the update then then click open and it will manually install the new iOS update. just make sure u back up your phone before you do this. my phone did this to me on the 4.3.5 update and again now for the iOS 5 update.
error 3194 any solutions?
Use the search in the upper right corner

Hey, thanx man, it really did work… I tried to download off here with google chrome, it would do about 100mb, then just stop for some reason, so I tried you internet download manager, an my speed was going at about 440kb/s like on average, was done very quickly thanx (:
PS everyone… IT WORKS
I am one lucky guy, I guess. I needed a break from the occasional catastrophic update hickups. Blech!
I started my update to iOS5 at 12:30 p.m. Pacific and thought it was finished around 4.5 hours later but it didn’t really finish the restore apps back in to the phone ’til about almost 9 p.m. :-) What an update! I have about 1,200 apps.
In all, done! No timeouts or lag from the usual in-iTunes update. Now to update the apps to be iOS5 compliant via OTA.
Tip to the updaters: BE PATIENT. DON’T DISCONNECT THE PHONE UNTIL ALL APPS ARE RESTORED BACK IN TO THE PHONE and that CAN TAKE HOURSSSSSS!
FAIL! Itunes says that there is an error 3002 with this download.
Me 2
and me
For any 3002 errors, try hardwiring your computer instead of WiFi.
Tried and proved here when one system had no grave errors since it was hardwired to the router/network.
The one that was WiFi kept failing during the download and getting errors and timeout and can never complete the download and install process BUT once it was hardwired, all went well and finished -still taking about 4 hours for the whole process, depending on the number of apps, music or other data that needed to be re-synced back into the phone.
BELIEVE ME, IT WORKS! Drop the WiFi and go hardwired for now, for the love of…!!!!
me two….. error 3002….
I downloaded it but still getting the error when Apple is verifying the update… please help? Should I connect my lap top to the router instead of using wifi?
i have the same problem error 3002 and im connected to a router
All who experienced ERROR 3002
Simply after downloading ios 5 copy it in download folder.
then open itunes attach your phone it will show i phone.now keep shift button pressed and right click over restore.follow it with a right click on updates.all along this procedure keep shift button compressed.
Guys i managed to update my iphone 4 to ios 5 this way without any problem.it was pretty quick,swift and accurate so far.

I think the problem is that this download doesn’t work to update, you really have to restore! I tried to update it first and it didn’t work, then I tried to restore and never got that error!
I hope I was helpful! CYA
I tried do all the above, restore and update with shift key but it still didn’t work. I have the file downloaded but I still can’t update to ios5. Before that I got Errors 3002 with update button and another one ( can’t recall) with the restore button.
Something is wrong ..please help.
update –>> error 3002
restore –>> error 3194
FAIL -.-

Hi…I m experiencing the Same prbm, after downloading full latest version of ios5 via itunes it showing an error saying check your internet connection & try again, Do u hve any solution for that…
Someone gave the solution. go onto the itunes site and watch video’s or click away in their so it doesn’t time out
i downloaded the IOS5 and followed intrustions but it did not work and has wiped my hole phone clean and now i cant restore old settings what has happen to my phone?? and more inportantly how do i fix it???
i downloaded the one for iphone 4 cdma and it downloaded as a zip file and itunes cant find it when i shift and left click it wont pop up as an option
Read comments above… Rename the .zip to .ipsw
In windows you may have to turn on show file extensions.
I have downloaded successfully and extracted – but iTunes does not recognise the file format – how do I now initiate the firmware upgrade?
BTW Work has prevented iTunes from automatically upgrading iOS – so when you press Check for Update it looks to the hard drive.
i have the same problem how do i bypass it thanks

You don’t know what you’re doing that means you should update through iTunes instead.
YES! Okay i finally stopped getting 3002, 3200, and 3194 errors and was able to update my ipod touch 4g:
1. I turned off my internet security software (kaspersky) AND windows firewall/defender.
2. Then i plugged in my ipod, selected it in itunes and clicked “update” like you normally would.
note: this was for a iOS 5.0.1 update
same here i restored my iphone 3gs cuz i cldnt set a home screen n it didnt give me the option to update to ios5 hopefully this wrks!!!!!!
