first go to the firewall and make kies connect to net
and when you start kies start as administration "right click and run as administration"
or you can update through odin.

You need to make sure that usb debugging is off. That being said, Kies sucks big time. If you want to use Kies try the wireless version seems to be a bit better.
There's a update to Kies available. I went to use it last night & a big update came through ?
Phone not syncing to kies in the 1st place!!
My phone doesn't want to connect to kies, it's written connected on the phone but still gives the connecting to device msg on kies on the PC, kept waiting and waiting, but nothing!
I tried with usb debugging method, the storage medium could be read. But no way with Kies!!!
What's wrong?? Please advice me what to do?
Install latest Kies .

As has been suggested try the wireless version also make sure the phone is connected before you open Kies.
Is there some setting in your phone preventing Kies from connecting.
I've only got my S2 a few days so I'm not really into it yet.
I find that Kies is very very slow in connecting.Seems to take forever but it was quite fast over Bluetooth.
I'm also havin same problem but in my case I cant upgrade firmware via Wifi...
Actually I lost my data cable (though ordered a new one today) but yesterdar a new version of kies came and when connected via wifi ... the upgrade firmware window popped up...
but when I tried upgrading it downloaded some components (Preparing firmware ...) and then on my phone I saw tht its already disconnected n after a few sec an error came up (in kies) saying "FirmwareUpdate has stopped working" .... Interestingly kies application keeps running after this error but disconnected... I've google a lot on this but no luck (I thnk most of d ppl pref to upgrade it via usb and not wifi) ...
Also tried reinstalling kies and "factory reset" phone but no avail.
Plz help as i deadly need this upgrade (as my battery's draining very heavily on wifi.. may be this upgrade improves smthng... )
Hi can somebody help me , how to connect SGS2 to Kies via wifi ? ( not the Kies Air one ) , but there is an option on " wireless and network " setting,it supports synchronization with kies via wifi . thank you in advance. help
So why dont you use the Kies Air there nothing wrong with connecting to computer via this mode...
I may be wrong but I think this is the way you connect using the KA.
The thing is I just want to try it out since we have this function so why not use it ?, I think it's not the same as Kies Air , anyway thank you for your suggestion .
You start Kies, then you go to your phone and start "Kies Wifi", your computer asks you to accept the connection ... that's it.
speaks for itself I think.
I've tried many times before and it's said " No Device " but with kies air no problem , is it just me or anybody having the same issue ?
those two are completely different!
Kies Air gives you access to your phone's internal sdcard letting you copy/move/delete/whatever files via the (!!) webbrowser!
Kies WiFi establishes a connection between the phone and Kies Software on your Computer via WiFi. You start Kies on your computer, start Kies Wifi on your phone, wait until it shows your computer in the list (assuming you are in the same network), click on the computer in the list and then accept the request on your computer. Kies is recognizing the phone and you are connected.
No device means there is no connection. Make sure you are in the same network, otherwise it won't work!
Thank you for your suggestion , but everytime I tried to connect to kies via wifi nothing happened except it just show me only my network name ( see the attachment below ) and yes both devices connected to the same network.
i have the same problem and did not get any solution yet and by the way do u have any wifi problems like u r connected to the wireless network but there is no internet data transfer please any one help
I've had the same problem, scanning for devices and the computer doesn't show up.
Try'd turning wifi off and on, restarting phone and it still didn't work. Computer has no firewall running at all, so its not getting blocked.
Try'd it a day later, it worked again :/
not helpful but just make sure your computer has been restarted recently, just to make sure the 2 (i think) kies process's are running in the background
can anyone upload a copy of kies wifi backup plzzzz
i uninstalled it by accident using titanium backup, from my wife's SII :s
Here is a step by step walkthrough and video http://www.careace.net/2011/05/03/how-to-download-and-use-kies-air/ for the Samsung Captivate; should work similarly for the GS2.

Hi,
I own a galaxy S2 that i bought in India. I had some issues connecting to KIES on my PC. I somehow resolved those issues with some help. Now when i connect using KIES i get a pop up stating that there is a Firmware Upgrade available. Firmware details attached. After taking the backup when i click on "Start Upgrade" it says "Preparing firmware upgrade components and then immediately i get an error stating that "Firmware upgrade stopped working". Attaching the file for reference.
It would be really great if experts here can help me out with this. I do not want to flash using ODIN.
Thanks,
Gokul
Probable culprits internet connection firewall AV PC stuff working in the background .

Hi Everyone,
i know most of Samsung users had to face this problem YES the Kies connection problem,
it been posted many times already and i have read almost all of them and they share different methods and all end up with Completed failure
i am posting this with hopeless feeling that my issue wont be solved and wont able to restore a back-up file that is very important for me,
"Kies" such a name make me wonder about the people who is behind this application and what kinna developers compile such bug-full software 'anyhow' my problem have no end till this moment and i would like to start to explain all the methods i have tried and you guys can tell me which one i have missed
Environment
Windows 7 SP1
Rooted GS3 GT-I9300
Android 4.1.1
Kernel "Siyah-1.7"
Original Samsung USB Cable
1st.was the "classic" re-installing way
2nd. Full Uninstalling > restart > install > restart > connect = not connecting
3rd.Re-flashing the phone to original stoke kernel and Official ROM
4th.Install older Kies PC Suits kies1.1 Connects but doesn't support GS3, kies 2.0 not connecting and have no restor option
5th."Drivers" old and new
6th.Running Kies as Administrator
7th.Changing USB Ports
8th.Wi-Fi and Bluetooth never connects
After all of that i came with conclusion which is that Kies is having Bugs symptoms which is not allow the software to function even after recognizing the device
so guys if anyone out there knows a method which i still didn't try and its useful share with me please or at least a way to restore my backup which i create with kies and restore it without kies.
excuse me for my English because its not my first nor second language
Hey Guys!
I recently tried to connect my Galaxy s2 to Kies over WiFi instead of USB-Cable. It accepts the device and tells on the mobile screen the device has been connected and can be synchronized. But on Kies the connect-button doesnt go away...I know its a very common problem, but i havent found a solution anywhere ;__;
Is help possible? All drivers/firmwares are up to date and i already tried to reinstall Kies.
Its no firewall related problem and ive already checked the ports and shut and firewall down. Kies Air works flawlessly...but i need the outlook sync options >.<
