Can not restore my 3gs. error 29.

i`ve re-downloaded itunes, plugged in the usb cacle into my pc, as during the day the phone kept switching itself on and off, and since now, it`s gone into recovery mode, nothing i can do now but chucking it away. 11mths old. some advice is good, never took out insurance from orange. keeps saying error 29 and download restore, but it wont.

If your iPhone 3GS is 11 months old as you say, it falls within the 1 year Apple Warranty. Make appointment with Apple Genius and take it to Apple Store for Warranty replacement.

  • HT201263 What does can not restore iphone unknown error occured (3005) mean? is it dead?

    I have an Iphone 3.  Yesterday it was working fine then Itunes said it had an update.  The update was unsucsessful and it said the phone needed to be restored.  I went through the restore steps and recieved an error.  Any suggestions?

    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443. 
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

  • Please help have error code 1013 and can not restore iphone 3gs

    i have tried every thing i can find to restore 3gs and no luck
    tried 4 different computers and 3 cables and all the usb ports on the computers
    i have even tried the gs.apple.com fix and no go.. am at a loss on what to do next any help
    would be great thank you all

    Every time I restore I get a different code last 2 times I have gotten code 1002
    And 1013 a few times.
    Error 1002 usually means a hardware problem. If you've tried several known working cables, the problem is likely in thte phone itself.
    +"Error 23, 28, 29, 40, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1611: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article and also attempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. If the MAC address is missing or the IMEI is the default value (00 499901 064000 0), this can also confirm a hardware issue."+

  • Can not restore iPod touch -error #1604

    So here is the situation:
    I have a 32GB iPod 2G and two days ago I tried to upgrade the software to 3.1 and because the backup was taking so long I let it run overnight. Yesterday morning I noticed an error showing (can't remember what it said exactly) saying the update failed.
    Ever since my iPod is only telling me to connect it to iTunes which is telling me that I have to restore my iPod but trying so always fails and iTunes tels me that error #1604 occured (all the time!!)
    I already tried every last advice I found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275 including using a different PC ,other cables / ports etc.
    I would be grateful for any help

    I had this exact same problem. I was able to solve it by connecting to one of the USB ports on my Mac instead of using the powered USB hub that I had been using. I notice you say you've tried different ports, have you tried on of the ports directly on your Mac (or PC)?

  • HT201263 iPhone 4 is in recovery mode but iTunes can not restore it.. Says unknown error occurred  (21) HELP!

    I've just got back of holiday and while there my phone decided to turn itself off, it would not come back on unless I plugged it into the wall charger, it said that I had to connect it to iTunes, but being on holiday I couldn't.
    So when I got home yesterday I plugged it into my laptop and the Apple logo came on, and then went off again, then back on and off again, it was doing this untill I unplugged it. So I put it into recovery mode and it said Connect to iTunes, so I did. It then said that the phone needed to be restored, iTunes started this process, 'extracting software' it said, and then once that was done it said 'preparing iPhone for restore' but then my phone disconnects itself from the laptop and then connects again then disconnects again. Then iTunes comes up with a message saying 'iTunes can not restore this iPhone 'iPhone', a unkown error occured (21)'
    I have tried over and over again to try and do this but it keeps coming up with the same.
    Does anyone know what's wrong with my iPhone and how I can fix it?
    Thanks

    And what did the error message say?

  • After updating my 3gs to ios 5.0.1, I can not restore my phone from my pc. It says session failed. It appears to be a backup available.

    After updating my 3gs to ios5.0.1, I can not restore my phone. It says session failed after about 20 seconds. It appears to be a restore point available. What should I do?

    Hi all,
    I work for an Enterprise with around 30 devices so far, 5 of them have been upgraded to iOS 5.01 and we are having this issue, the steps below are appearing, these are both on iphone and ipad 2's with exchange 2003:-
    - Exchange Calendars not sync'ing, but Yahoo account working fine.
    - Create an appointment on the ipad / iphone and this sync's with Exchange.
    - Close the Calendar and re-open the appointment disappears, but stay's within Exchange.
    - Meetings created within the Exchange Calendar do not synch with the iphone / ipad.
    This is starting to cause a lot of issues.
    Thanks
    Keith

  • TS1372 I replaced the hard drive, motherboard, and battery but now can not restore my Ipod 5th gen?  Error code 1416, any help?

    I replaced the hard drive, motherboard, and battery but now can not restore my Ipod 5th gen?  Error code 1416, any help?

    When I did a Google search on "1416 error ipod 5th," there is some discussion that the earlier version of the logic board only accepted 30 and 60 GB drives (or words to that effect), but the later "5.5" version did allow larger capacity drives.  If that info is true, the question is, do you have a compatible combination of logic board and hard drive?

    When I want to restore my IPhone 3G, it can not restore & show an Unkown error (1015). What can I do now?

    Please see the quoted text below, taken from the Apple article you linked.
    "Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state."

  • TS3694 i can not restore my i phone 3g an error is 1015

    i can not restore my i phone beacuse an error is 1015

    All you can do is to update your iTunes to the latest version.
    Connect your iPhone to the computer and open up iTunes, put your iPhone in DFU mode. Here is the instruction video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofpinyGlQ8I
    Then as your phone is detected in recovery mode in iTunes, (which is actually DFU mode), hit the restore button, there it will download the latest iOS which would be (4.2.1 in your case), it might take a while to download it depending on your internet speed. Then it will be restored automatically!
    Then you are good to go!
