Error 21 trying to update. HELP!!!

So, i have an iPhone 4 and i just tried to update to iOS 5, but i keep getting an Error 21 saying it cant be restored.
I did a little research and people seem to say to put it in DFU mode (holding the power/home, then releasing the power), but that doesnt work.
I updated iTunes thinking that might resolve it, but it didnt.
I tried my other USB port also, to no avail.
Can anyone out there help me out??
Not that it needs to be said, but ill mention it is NOT jailbroken.
Thanks for any help!!!

DFU mode is correct.
Check your hosts file in HDD/etc/hosts.plist (this is a hidden file, so enable hidden files and folders)
Make sure the following is NOT in your hosts property list: #74.208.10.249.gs.apple.com
* You may need to change your permissions to save your hosts file.
If that line is present, server communication in iTunes fails, causing 21 in DFU and 1600 in Recovery or normal mode.

  • Error while trying to update to ios 5

    I keep getting an error while trying to update to iOS 5. I update iTunes this morning to the lastest version so I know that isn't the problem. I have tried restarting both my computer and my phone, but contine getting "The iPhone could not be restore. An unknow error occurred (3194)." PLease help! Thanks in advance

    I am also getting the error 43 when the update tries to back the phone up. Im using the latest version of itunes. This is on an iphone4, I am in the UK.
    I tried deleting all of the historical backups to see if a fresh backup folder helps. It did not.
    Ive tried running iTunes in 'administrator' mode on my Windows 7 machine. This made no difference.
    Ive tried putting the phone in airplane mode. No difference.
    I tried getting it into restore mode just to see if it worked on a iphone4. However it did not seem to want to do it.
    Im not not too sure about proceeding with this update as I done want to loose any of the apps I have. (or 3 my 3 stars in every angry birds level on all 3 versions of the game!!)
    Please someone, HELP !! !!

  • Errors when trying to update cs6 13.4 (I think) on Mac osx 10.8.4

    Errors when trying to update cs6 13.4 (I think) on Mac osx 10.8.4.
    I have a purchased copy. Downloaded patch which also does not work. Very frustrating.

    is that photoshop cs6?
    if yes, and you're trying to update to 13.1.2 from 13.0.1.2, uninstall ps cs6.  reinstall using adobe application manager.  close aam immediately after ps cs6 completes its installation.
    open ps cs6, click help>updates and select 13.1.2. do not update to 13.0.1.2, first.

  • Error when trying to update or download any app

    I'm getting an Error when trying to update or download any app from Mac App Store
    Every time I try to update xCode to version 6.2 but I get this error :
    The server gave an error during download: 503 Service Unavailable.
    So I tried to download a random app from the App Store but I got the same error message.
    So any advices ?

    Hello HusseinAlBehary,
    Sorry to hear your troubles updating and downloading apps from the Mac App Store. Based on when you were doing that, it looks like the Mac App Store was experiencing difficulties. It is not currently so you should be able to upgrade with out issues now. If you experience this in the future, look at the page below to start you on figuring out if it is something on your end or Apple’s end.

    Hope you are having a lovely afternoon today! I'm about ready to go bobo....I have an early meeting, and I don't want to oversleep! The nice part is that I work remotely, so I only have to wake up 15 minutes or so before the meeting.... I don't even use an alarm clock anymore (really, my iPhone alarm, which is much more pleasant), unless I have to get up at 6:30 or something....

  • HT201210 Error when trying to update my ipad

    I got an error when trying to update my ipad saying it could not be updated and gave an error 6.  Has anyone else had this happen and how did you rectify it?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.
