Dealing with error code 53 on i-phone 6 , tried restoring but it stops 1/2 way due to unecpected error 53

Doing some research I found that there are many complaints that have to do with error code 53, mine happened with my new i-phone 6+ during an update and restore process. The bar below the apple during on my screen during the update filled in 1/2 way and then the stopped telling me on my MAC-BOOK "unable to update i-phone due to unexpected error 53". And the phone now is stuck with the screen showing that a cable needs to be plugged in and connected to i-tunes.
Is there a fix that someone recommends ?
Thank you.

Greetings gillisfrompasadena,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with your device. You may want to consider restoring your device to factory settings to adress the issue:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Use recovery mode
You might need to use recovery mode to restore your device in these cases:
iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's in recovery mode.
You see the Apple logo onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
You see the Connect to iTunes screen.
Learn what to do if you see the progress bar onscreen for several minutes.
To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes. 
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again. 
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup. 
Get more help
Learn what to do if you don't see your device in iTunes for OS X, or in iTunes for Windows.
If you put your device into recovery mode by mistake, restart it. Or you can wait 15 minutes and your device will exit recovery mode by itself.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

  • Firefox will not start and I get firefox.exe Application Error with the code 0x00000000, I've tried reloading but always get the same error message!

    Firefox will not start, I've tried opening in safe mode, no joy. I get the firefox.exe application error 0x00000000
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

    uninstall and reinstall
    there is a complicated way to work with just the mobile device support but its simpler just to uninstall itunes and related components and then reinstall itunes
    ur music will be fine, u will just lose the playlists. but ur mobile device support will be working again.

  • HT201210 I am getting an error code when it's trying to verify the firmware of -1

    I am getting an error code when it's trying to verify the firmware of -1 when trying to restore my IPHONE 4 using ITUNES and it's stuck in recovery mode and won't let me out now.
    I have the ITUNES logo on the black screen with the USB cable?

    Error -1 is a very bad hardware error of the baseband. Restore your iPhone on a different computer with iTunes 10.7 or 11. If on another computer you still get Error -1 then most likely there is no fix. If you have Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

  • Error code: 213.19 when trying to us Premier Elements 11.

    First, I got the error code: 213.19 when trying to us Premier Elements 11..  I uninstalled and tried again...still getting it.  From what I have read on this forum, it is a licensing issue.  Any suggestions.

    wiiman
    From what you wrote, you are not seeking to deactivate a Premiere Elements serial number from crashed computer. So, the chances seem slim to none about Adobe Chat helping you with a non current version issue. That does not stop you from finding that out for yourself, but I just wanted to prepare you for that possibility.
    Have you tried to troubleshoot the issue yourself in ways other than uninstall reinstall?
    Have you gone through the Adobe document for Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements on this issue? If not, please review the following Adobe document
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/licensing-problem.html
    Please review, consider, and let us know the outcome.
    Thank you.

  • I have error code 2330 when i tried to download itunes 10.5, how do I fix the problem?

    I have error code 2330 when I tried to download itunes 10.5. Different sites I have visited give different solutions and most seem to indicate removing the current itunes program then reinstalling the new 10.5. I did try to remove the program but it took a long time and I had to reboot the computer. Has anyone had the same issue and how did they fix the problem?

    I was having this problem with my wife's computer today so I did a Check Disk from the command prompt. (start/run then type chkdsk) let it do its thing then restart windows and it does some other BS on the start up. Relaunch itunes and then retry to download. I went to the apple website and click on the download and saved the file to my desk top then ran it from there. Let me know if you have the same luck. -Mike

    You may have to follow the slightly more detailed steps in whichever of these two applies to you.

    HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Rebooting into safe mode may be needed to delete any folder the instructions say you should remove. You may also find this Microsoft Fixit helps to remove stubborn components. It has taken some people several attempts to completely clean iTunes and supporting software before they have been able to successfully reinstall it.

    i am getting an error code of "0" when trying to buy an in app purchase. what is this error?

    In your first post you wrote
    It is telling me I need 6MB of additional free space
    And in your second post
    Importing to internal hard drive 6.85GB available
    Even assuming that the GB was a typo and should be MB you're still on the hairy edge.

  • I have cs4. Had to rebuild my mac OS after malware infected it. Now getting an error code 150:30 when trying to open PS. Can this be fixed or do I have to upgrade to cs6?

    I have cs4. Had to rebuild my mac OS after malware infected it. Now getting an error code 150:30 when trying to open PS. Can this be fixed or do I have to upgrade to cs6?

    150:30 means licensing is broken. It's a common CS4 error. On Macs it usually happens when Photoshop is retrieved from backup or migrated from another Mac. Photoshop is never meant to be moved that way. As advised, you should uninstall and reinstall from your discs.
    Sine reinstall only apply the base install and the CS4 Help > Update function is outdated, you will have to manually download and install your updates from here:  Product updates for Bridge and Photoshop.

  • HT201210 My Ipod has an error code of 1604 when trying to restore.  I have followed all recommended instructions...any ideas.??

    My Ipod has an error code of 1604 when trying to restore.  I have followed all recommended instructions...any ideas.??

    If you did all of this
    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
