I'm getting this error message after the install progresses to the point it verify's the file with Apple.

Also, I get the same error message on my iPad 2 update to iOS5.

iTunes, iPhone4 and iPad2 software is the latest versions.
 
A LOT of people are finding that one of two things is keeping them from upgrading.

Error 3200 with is being reported by Apple as an overloaded server.

Your error which seems to require a reboot of the computer to fix.
 
I updated my itunes, restarted my pc, plugged in my iphone 4 and nothing happens. All I see is my iphone in the list in itunes and a little blue circle with arrows next to it which has been spinning for the last 30 mins.....and still nothing!

Any ideas???
 
When was the last time you backed it up? Because if you haven't done so in a while, it has to back up a LOT of information before it installs the new version.
 
Not sure, o thought it backed up automatically everytime I plugged into itunes. So the spnning blue circle is normal? Nothing is showing in the phone, no sync message, nothing!
 
Then you might want to try rebooting your PC and then replugging the iPhone back into the PC.

Some users that updated iTunes that didn't reboot got very odd behavior or error messages.
 
Listen guys I just did it. My IPhone 4 has the new IOS with ICloud. Just keep on clicking ok and let the phone to try to re-store. It will eventually work. It took me like a little bit over 15 times. The servers were down due to the fact that too many people were downloading this. Just keep and trying. It is no your phone neither the computer that you are using. Just make sure you have the latest microsoft window update if u are running xp like me and the latest itunes software in your computer. 10.5
 
I think the problem was due to an overloaded server. Both were successfully updated (after 6PM EST) but it sure takes a long time to reload all apps, music, videos, etc.
 
That error is server overload I suggest delay upgrade until tonight although it seems to be getting heavier. This is the biggest iOS upgrade ever and also a world wide release so just be patient once upgraded you will be smiling.

Regarding Apps etc keep in mind it will take a while first time through then after that it is just updating.
 
I downloaded the IPSW from the web and copied it to the update file directory for iTunes. I already had the latest version. I then plugged the phone in and it asked me if I was ready to install. I said yep, and it backed up and installed without any error at all. First try. I run Win 7 x64 Professional. I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not. Only took about 25-30 minutes from beginning to end.
 
Hi all. So to give you a background on my phone, I got my iPhone 4 back in April and jailbroke it over the summer. Last night, I decided to un jail break it by restoring and following all the instructions. I thought it was all good but when I went to download iOS 5, an error message showed up (in photo attached). I don't know what to do! Someone told me to take it to the apple store and just don't tell them that it was once jailbroken but can they tell??? Also, anyone knowing how to get rid of this error, can you give me some direction?

thanks!
 
Wow!

I've been reading MANY postings here and there about the new "update" and all the problems people are having with error codes, Restore not working, overloaded servers, etc., etc... Seems like Apple would be more customer-friendly and provide more online "explanations" with those error codes and server timeouts and "spinning circles."

Hey, I'm at iOS 4.1 and all's perfect. Don't even need iCloud, but thanks anyway!
 
I have not left this laptop and I am now absolutely going CRAZY!!! First all I have tried 4 times and EACH time it took 2 hours to JUST back up, and I have read ALL posts trying to help myself and I have tried every trick and nothing works. I right click back up FIRST and that back up takes 2 minutes then I hit update and that back up takes 2 hours. I have reboot my laptop 5 times. I have my iphone 4 in airplane mode. After the back up I get "unable to connect to servers" or something of that nature. I understand having to try a few times in order to get through to the servers, but come on a 2 hour BACK UP!!! I am officially pulling my hair out, my husband might just divorce me and I will be up all night until I get this right and might just call out for work tomorrow! The actual DOWNLOAD of the IOS only took 60 minutes!! its the install that I cant do! And I am no newbie as I have been jailbroken in the past, currently running Verizon 4.2.10 stock now.

Thankls in advance for the help....PLEASE HELP ME!!!
 
First time I got 3200 error now I got a 3194 error no jailbreak. OK I waited a total 6 hours just to get this STUPID error. IS the file anywhere on my computer so I dont have to sit waiting to see if I'll get an ERROR?! what a MESS
