Can't Restore and Update iPhone 4
When I'm trying to restore, the restore bar on the iPhone goes until the very end and then iTunes gives me a message with the error code 3004. I tried it three times now, and for some reason it just can't restore my iPhone. The reason why it's trying to restore in the first place is because it "failed to back up" earlier, and it left my iPhone in recovery mode. Anyone got any ideas/suggestions/help? Thanks in advance.
Lol, actually kept trying and it eventually worked. But that wasn't the only thing I did. According to directions on the Apple error code support page, (if you have error code 3004), you should quit iTunes, and then go to Terminal and type this: dscacheutil -flushcache So yeah, that's what I did, and I kept terminal open while trying it again, and my phone got restored and updated. Though I did here that one person's iPhone was updated but didn't have all the features of iOS 5, so I'll have to double check on my phone.

Could be a hardware issue:
Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

Error 29 When trying to restore and update iPhone 4 ios7
I had a shop recently replace my screen on my iPhone 4. After a few days my phone would keep rebooting after 2 minutes every single time. I closed all the apps and turned everything off, including cellular, 3G, roaming and it still keeps rebooting... So i decided to do a restore via iTunes. Now Every time i do a restore and update I keep getting Error 29 in iTunes. I read that error 29 usually means a bad or incompatible battery. I tried batteries from two different iPhone 4. Both were original batteries. I also tried different computers, different cables and I during the update process it gets 3/4ths done and I'm getting error 29 on iTunes. The phone is back on recovery mode..... I can't get it out of recovery mode and I can't get it to update.....
Could the screen replacement cause this error 29. ? Is there any other way to get out of recovery mode or update my iPhone ?I had a shop recently replace my screen on my iPhone 4.

okay, so lately my iPhone 3GS has been telling me i have no service what so ever for the past two days. But today when i was on the bus going home from school, i had perfect service and everything until i got close to my house (to clarify, i live somewhat far out from the center of town, and my school is right in the middle of town.. didnt know if that would affect anything). So then i asked my Dad about it and he reccomended restoring and updating my phone to see if it helped because im a couple updates behind. So i plugged it in, backed it up, and began to restore and update it. All was well until it got to the "verifying the restore with apple" stage. I was watching the rose bowl and not paying attention while it was on, but remembered that it started that stage at the beginning of the game. Now the game just ended 5 or 10 minutes ago and lasted a goood hour, hour an a half, and its still verifying!! i dont know what to do... HELP!
Did you check the security software settings? iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the update process: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

Please help. I simply connected my iPhone 4s to my Dell laptop (Win 8) which connected to iTunes automatically (which it normally does) and was told that I needed to update my software (I believe for both iPhone OS and iTunes). I tried to update and now my iPhone won't work at all. I just keep going in circles trying to restore and recover and I keep getting the error message: The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (14). All I see on my iPhone 4s screen is a cable connector, a little up arrow, and an iTunes symbol--and nothing else works.

TS3694 error 1015 !! how i can to restore and update ??
I tried again and again that the fairest his program but it appears erorr 1015 for iphone 3G
If you don't have a sim card in the phone, you won't be able to activate it. You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim itself need not be activated, but it must be valid & present.

Can't Restore Or Update iPhone 3G

btw i didn't jb or sth else!
is there anyway to fix it or it's f'd up?!Personally, I would keep it at 3.2.1 due to performance issues
When you have the phone plugged in to iTunes, are you clicking "restore" or "check for update"?
You can also try downloading the firmware: http://appldnld.apple.com/iPhone4/061-9853.20101122.Vfgt5/iPhone1,2_4.2.1_8C148_ Restore.ipsw
then hold down the option key on your mac keyboard while you press restore, then navigate to the file you downloaded. -

When i try to update my iPhone 3gs with new IOS and it won't restore and update
i Tried to update my 3Gs with the new IOS 5 and now it has the plug into itunes sign. I plugged it into itunes and it told me its in recovery mode and it needs to be restored. when i click restore i can only restore and update it but once it is don extracting the software and preps it for restore it tells me it has an unknow error. when i hit ok it tells me to restore it again. i tried all the troubleshooting steps none helped. Any ideas?
I have spent the better part of three days on this. Yesterday I took it to the Apple store and they looked at it and tried to DFU (hold the lock button for 5 seconds, then press the home button along with the lock button for 10 seconds, THEN, let off the lock button continuing til the 'connect to itunes' symbol.
They say that my phone has a bad memory module or logic board. Funny, it worked fine up until I updated. Seems to big of a coincidence to not be related.
The only thing that seemed to get access was using redsnow unlocking tool (my phone is NOT unlocked). I was desparate to try anything. I tried to load a different firmware but still no luck.
I have a blackberry through work that is paid for, so I guess its time to get rid of my iphone plan. -
iphone in recovery mode,i'm restoring and updating to itunes but download cannot be completed...
my phone wont open, i can't even turn the power on.
what to do? pls help
(iphone 4 and iphone 4s)So I just did this on my iPhone 4 and it worked like a charm it unlocked it immediately. My phone was put into recovery mode and I know that not all data is deleted it just puts the phone into a sort of hibernation in order for the files to stay uncorrupted. I went to http://www.recovery-ipad.com/iphone-stuck-in-recovery-mode.html downloaded the software it unlocked my phone in a matter of minutes. Calls, messages, photos, apps, and voicemail was all there as if it never happened If you leave it unregistered you don't have to pay for it works for either windows or mac. Hope this helps!

We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten. Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ? Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?
Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences.
