tried to update my iPhone4 from 4.3.3 to 4.3.4(i think) about 2 months ago..............

when you went in iTunes it said there was a new version available - click here to download and install it

tried several times - each time it'd crash and say Network connection lost after 30 or 40 minutes - exactly at the point when the download of the software had completed.......... so gave up

Since then - got a new iPhone4 under warranty - and now i've installed the new iTunes 10.5 software.......... and am trying to download and then install the new iOS5 software

............... but it still spends 30-40 minutes downloading it and when the bar gets to the end - it crashes out and says something about network connections............

Whats wrong???

It does take up to more than an hour downloading it.
I cant really tell what the main solution is but it should ask you if you want to
1) download the software
2) download the software and install it

I did the second one without any problems but it does take 1 hour to download the software and another 30 minutes to install it.

well the gist seems to be disable Windows firewall and your antivirus and then it works

......... will try it tomorrow!

Thanks

Yes its your firewall. I had the same problem when I was running Zonealarm, but i swapped back to Windows firewall and havn't had any problems since.
