HELP!! error 1013 when trying to restore!? PHONE HAS DIED!!

i tried udating my iphone 3GS with my itunes and it failed asked me to restore my iphone and now wont restore, i just get a message saying "unknown error 1013, unable to restore"?!
would be very grateful for help as id like to go to sleep!

First delete all .ipsw files on your computer. In OSX they are located here:
~/Library/Application Support/iTunes/iPod/iphone Firmware
If you have your firewall turned on, disable it. Then see if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Also, any reason why you have not updated to 10.6.2? You might try updating to 10.6.2 FIRST & also make sure itunes is up to date, version 9.0.3.

  • Ipod nano gets unknown error -48 when trying to restore

    Hi All
    My Ipod nano gets unknown error -48 when trying to restore and download the software update. Specifcally, when I connect my ipod, I get a message saying itunes cannot access the ipod and that I should restore it. I go the the ipod tab, hit the restore button and the download begins (approx 16mb). The download completes, and then I get this message :
    There was a problem downloading the ipod software for the ipod "ipod". An unknown error occurred (-48).
    Please help !!!!!

  • Getting error -34 when trying to restore my ipad

    I am getting an error (-34) when trying to restore my backup to my ipad after update to ios 5.  Seems to be the same issue as:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3374362
    I have plenty of free space on my 64gb ipad but the settings keep getting defaulted to not downsample my music to 128kb.  that would over fill my device. I have been on the phone with apple for over an hour with no end in sight.  I have lost many data files including a recorded meeting from this week.
    If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them.
    Thanks,
    RA

    Configure your security software
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Common errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.

    I am getting error message when trying to restore iphone 3gs

    If this is your phone, it appears that you had either loaded the iOS 7 beta on it and it is now expired or you are not trying to restore the phone correctly. Did you attempt to update using something other than the standard procedure in iTunes? You cannot install a custom iOS file.
