Been trying to update iTunes to 10.6 for days now, got 2 machines and both of them can't do it. Seems to be a problem with the Apple Software update itself, rather than my machines or my internet (as my BB speed is the same speed as ever).

Anyone else having a problem?

Seems OK for me.. just brought down about 580MB of Aperture update at pretty much my ADSL speed..

You could try downloading iTunes from the apple website and installing?

The iTune update wasn't to bad for me but the iphone update seemed to take for ever when I did it.

Just trying that now... Will see how I get on.

Surely though the Software Update should just connect as quick as ever? Usually takes 20-30 seconds to have a browse, see what needs updating on my machine, then asks me to click and away I go... Been trying for the last 3 days to update, and each time I click software update it will spend maybe 30 minutes having a look, before timing out! 😕
