First, make sure you are using the latest version of the Nokia Suite . When you get the 'connection restored' message wait for 3-4 minutes and see if the process contineous on its own. Do not touch the phone or click any tab on the PC.. just wait .. See what happens ..

Something more I can suggest is Re-boot both PC and Phone and try again .. Also disable any Firewalls / Anti Virus running on the PC before starting the update process ..

No..Thats not possible..but just saw one old thread ..and you may try the solution mentioned there in..
First back up your data thru' Nokia Suite..Then disconnect the phone and Soft Reset it. (Dial *#7370# followed by 12345 (Default code unless changed by you) when prompted. This will erase all data from the phone memory. Now connect the phone again and try the update ...If you are successfull, restore the data from the Back-up which was taken separately and not the one which automatically does it before the update ..

My local computer repair shop suggested Turn of firewall while in nokia suite and then try to download I did and it worked but dont forget to turn back on again My system is windows 7
Hope this works for all who are having problems with nokia suite it did for me
