Can't restore Iphone 4 HELP!!

Water was spilt on my phone and after leaving it in rice for a few hours it went into recovery mode, now i cant get out of it
I click restore Iphone and it says extracting then it makes a noise like its unplugged and my phone screen goes dark with no apple sign while Itunes says waiting for iphone after a while it comes up with an error message
Ive tried all the steps apple suggests including using another PC but it didnt pick up the iphone at all
Im using Windows btw
any help appreciated

I did brought my phone to Globe (my carrier) and they restored it successfully. It was a huge relief. They told me that it could have been a problem with my computer or USB port or even my sync cable. I thought my iPhone is forever stuck in recovery mode. Thank God the guys at Globe revived and I only have to wait in less than 10 mins.

  • Error 3014 with iOS 5, can't restore iPhone HELP!

    Basically as the title suggests. Downloaded and tried to update iPhone 4 with iOS 5 and it didnt work. Needed restoring but that comes up with the 3014 error. Happened to my iPad aswell. Redownloaded iTunes and that didint work as well as restarting. Dont know what to do.

    same exact problem.
    After trying a number of times and checking all items listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1275
    and here
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3014
    I have same error -
    on a whim, tried to do it via a Windows iTunes install that was a new install -
    i got the idea from an Apple page that asked if i was trying to "upgrade from my home machine or not"
    it repeated locked the Win machine to death - figures - until i had to hold the button down.
    Anyway, i see this reported elsewhere - I am going to the Genius bar tomorrow - 

  • Can't restore iphone 4s

    Switched the phone off as the camera had frozen and now it won't come back on!  Tried to restart, restore etc.  Itunes has error message saying can't restore.  Help?!!

    Open current iTunes on your computer. Connect iPhone to your computer with the USB Cable. Hold both the home and power buttons for about 20 seconds, until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If it Restores great. If any Error Messages are given write them down so you can look up the cause and solution.

  • 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 5 using itunes, what to do ???

    Can't restore iphone 5 using itunes. It asks for update of ios 7.0.4 while it is in the latest ios and once I start the update using itunes it doesn't complete. Stucks with lots of errors like, 3253, 9000 series. What to do???

    "1- suddenly my iPhone 5 lost mobile company signal and word searching appears instead but no signal for the hole day so I changed the sim with other provider and since it gave me the same result I searched the web and the seems no solution other than restore.
    I did restore and update to iOS 7.0.4 but at the restore takes at the last 1% in the last moment of restore it will take loooong time then gave me error 3. And now for more than a month the iPhone stuck with recovery logo. Almost I tried every trick in the book . Change USB cable, port, PC. PC with other OS . Even freezing the iPhone as I read here noooooo result the same happened again and again."
    I have exactly the same problem with my iPhone 5s!

  • HT201442 can not restore iphone please help

    Can not restore iphone

    You have posted from a Support Article about Error Code 3194...
    If Error Code 3194 is your issue and that Article did not resolve it... then you have a problem.
    Perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
    Be sure to make an appointment first...
    Note:
    That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.

  • Secure link to iTunes Store Failed, Can't restore iPhone.

    Good day,
    Am hoping to get some help please. We recently upgraded our desktop from Windows XP to Windows 7. Re-installed all the software as well as iTunes 10.
    All has been working fine, up until yesterday. The playlist which we where syncing with the iPhone 3G, had been changed and we wanted to sync the changes to the phone.
    When preforming the sync, it got to the point where it said "Finishing Sync" in iTunes, the phone said "Sync in Progress" and iTunes froze completely. (Not Responding) Left it for about 30mins, after which it still said the same. I rebooted the machine and the phone, and tried again with the same error. I then tried removing all music and videos from the phone. Same problem.
    My last resort was to attempt a restore of the phone. It started the restore and eventually got to a point where iTunes came up with the error 2003, unable to restore iPhone, the phone was now stuck in restore mode with the iTunes Logo and USB plug on the main screen.
    So off to the iStore to get it fixed. The phone was reformatted/restored there and was working fine but I did not have any contacts/messages or photos on the phone, so I attempted another restore, so I could get my info back. It came up with the same issue again. Error 2003.
    I then started browsing around and found out the iTunes diagnostics, it fails every time on the "Secure link to iTunes", iTunes has been added to the Windows firewall, I have tried un-installing my AntiVirus software and trying it with again but same result. I have checked the ports are all open. I have tried to reset my hosts file. I have reset my internet explorer settings, but nothing is working.
    Can anybody help me out with this please.

    The results show that you have a proxy server set and this can often cause problems with iTunes.
    The proxy setting can be accessed in Internet options>>Connections>>LAN Settings.
    Try un-checking the proxy server check box.
    It might also be a good idea to run a malware check if you didn't know you had the proxy server set.
    You can download a free version of an excellent scanner- Malwarebytes here:

  • 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.

  • Can't Restore Iphone

    Hello,
    I have read a lot of the threads in this discussion and have tried almost everyone's advice but am still unable to restore my iphone and continue to receive the error message (6). Long story short I was trying to update my iphone to the latest version in itunes (2.0.2) AND IT FROZE WITH THE ITUNES SCREEN ON THE PHONE WITH THE USB CABLE POINTING UP TO ITUNES!
    So I did what the discussion page said to do and held down both buttons for 20 to 30 seconds....I first get the apple screen then I believe it turns off. I have also done what the discussion page says to do.....hold down the home key while plugging it back into the computer......tried different USB ports.....I updated all my software....all of that... If I reset it, it goes to the plug into itunes screen. Fine. It tells me i need to restore. Fine. I try to restore and itunes tells me it could not restore---error (6).
    So at this point in time I have no phone....I can't receive calls or make them. I have restarted, rebooted, upgraded, updated, tried different ports, different wall outlets, you name it and all I get is an error message (6).....any advice will help as I am out fighting fires and need a phone asap!!!! Thanks!

    I'm having the same thing. I was trying to do the same exact thing and have pretty much bricked my phone. It gets 1/3 of the way through "restoring iphone software" and throws the iphone could not be restored, unknown error occurred (6).
    I followed all of the Apple advice, including the article above. No dice. I've got a bricked phone now to start the workweek.

  • 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
