How do i resolve error 21 on an iphone4

I have an Iphone 4 that keeps having an error 21when trying to restore this device. How can I resolve this issue?

Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • How can I resolve error code -54 in iTunes? I am using the latest iTunes. No new updates are available.

    How can I resolve error code -54 in iTunes? I am using the latest iTunes. No new updates are available. I'm using iTunes 11.3 on a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8. I can't save my library in iTunes, the message just keeps popping up.

    From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Although there is no formal list of OSX error code some of the old codes still apply to OSX .)
    First, try simply restarting your computer.
    Try quitting iTunes, then deleting the .xml (not .itl !) version of the library file in the iTunes folder (iTunes will generate a new one).

    How do I resolve error 5011; "Attention: unable to retrieve shared information" on Time Magazine app?

    Dear Goteamjosh,
    When you bought a subscription through iTunes you shouldn't have to login seperately using the sign in which asks you for your timesubscription data (this is only when you are a paper subscriber, in that case your iPadsubscription is complimentary). The login should be automatic if your iPad is logged in to iTunes, if not ,you will see the familiar iTunes loginbox in which you use your regular iTunes data. If the app asks you your credentials with a Time-loginbox, then there is still something wrong with the app. As you can see above, a lot of people have been experiencing problems, which they now seem to have resolved (my app is working OK again, no login data requiered).
    Update: I just checked, and my app is not working again either! Back to square one. As we can see above, there is some time-app bug (or server problem or whatever). No use trying to solve it ourselves. I am sure they are aware of it and working on it, i guess we just have to be patient (again!).

    As Jeff already hinted at, try a different browser. Such issues almost always are local problems on your end. Something is either changing or blocking the HTTP headers used for forwarding (could be your router, a desktop firewall or other security tools) or a JavaScript is not running/ being blocked.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    How do I resolve error message R6034 when trying to access itunes

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
