Can't restore iPhone 4 from IOS7.02 error 3014

Hello all,
Familiar topic for many.... Can't restore iPhone 4 after trying to update to IOS7.02 and keep getting error 3014 whenever it tries to restore firmware halfway through update process.
Have read all of the discussions and done the following:-
- tried it on another (proven) network
- Tried it on another identity on my machine
- deleted and reinstalled software update file several times over
- tried different USB cables
- checked that there are no ports blocked.
- looked at the host file and there is no reference to gs.apple.com on there
- Phone is not jailbroken
- turned off security software.
Any more suggestions?
Grateful and expectant,
ZNZB*
P.S. Nearest Apple Store is about 3000 miles away, before anyone asks.

Itunes is updating ALSO today
Endless countless millions of people are trying to authenticate AFTER downloading the new IOS.
Download servers and Authentication / Activation servers are slammed right now.
Give it some time.   
download servers VS. authentication servers
If you've downloaded but can yet activate, you can wait till later and Activate your Iphone (or Ipad also) without any worries
Iphones , Ipads, and Itunes are ALL being updated today, so server traffic is enormous.

  • Can't restore iphone 4s after ios7 update, pc keeps eating hd memory, but not restoring?!

    I have an iphone 4s and just updated to ios7. However after the update, when I tried to restore my old settings from the backup (which is on my pc), the iphone started eating hd memory until I was left with 28kilobytes of free space. Naturally, I got the low disk space error and the process stopped. Now I can't restore my settings on the updated iphone and I have no memory left on C:\
    Please help!

    Iphone 5 locked into an Apple screen this morning.
    Followed like 5 different suggestions from this forum, regarding connecting to Itunes and restoring.
    All attempts on Windows and MAC, Itunes is up to date.
    Itunes extracts the software, contacts apple for verification, an then " Notification of error 40".
    I have tried this like 15 times now, and nothing is working.
    Any real help, beside following an article that I probably already attempted would be appreciated.
    thank you

  • Can't restore iPhone 4s from old backup?

    I did a backup on my iPhone 4s on ios 6.1.2. a week ago. My backups size is 6gb. Then I restored to ios 6.1.3, but can't restore from the backup.
    The picture is in danish, but notice how it can't find the backup ''Gendan sikkerhedskopi''.
    When i'm locating my backup in Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup, it shows me 3 folders?
    Can I get my files back? Thanksss

    Your screen shots are not appearing for me.
    As long as the backups are from the same iOS or an older iOS that you currently have on the phone, you should be able to restore from the backup. You cannot restore a newer iOS backup to an older iOS device until you update the device to the same iOS as the backup.
    I don't know if the screen shots were visible if it would help, but it sure couldn't hurt to see what you are seeing.

  • How can I restore iCloud files from my lost iPhone

    I backed up my files to icloud. But I lost my Iphone last week. How can I restore my files from icloud to my macbook ?

    Are you using Photostream?  If yes, then you will be able to see your 1000 most recent photos on your Mac in iPhoto.
    All your contacts, calendar events, emails, etc. will still be on your Mac as part of iCloud.
    If you didn't import your videos from your iPhone to your Mac, then you've lost them unless you can restore your cloud backup to another iOS device.

    How can i restore my documents from icloud on my iphone if i have already gone through the setup process??

    Back to the beginning...
    What do you mean by "documents"?  Word or Pages files, spreadsheet files?
    Also, on your device, in Settings>iCloud, you have to have an on/off setting for Docments&Data.  If not what kinds of entries do you have on that screen?

  • How can I restore deleted pictures from an iPhone 5  without back up?

    How can I restore deleted pictures from an iPhone 5  without back up?

    If you've previously synced the pictures to a computer (as is generally advised to archive them), then they are gone, unless you have backed up the device to itunes or icloud.  If so, you need to perform a restore:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your phone.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
    Note that you cannot restore just one file, it's all or nothing.

    Can I restore text messages from a destroyed iPhone 4 if I didn't backup in the cloud?

    If you backed it up using iTunes on your computer, then you can restore it from there. If you didn't back it up at all, then no. There is no place to restore it from.
