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.
If you don't want to go through the security software issues article, you can just uninstall the security software on your computer, test again, and reinstall it again afterwards.

  • The iPhone cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1723).  iPhone 4S & Yosemite

    Since upgrading my iPhone 4S to 8.1 I have remained happy.  Apple wants to shove the iCloud Drive stuff down my throat but I'm not ready yet.  Just upgraded iMac to Yosemite.  Now iPhone won't sync when plugged in.  When it's transferring photos, it stalls out and gives the error message "The iPhone "mine" cannot by synced.  An unknown error occurred (1723)."  Also, I now have no more ability to sync my numbers documents with my iMac.  I chose NO for iCloud Drive on the iMac and was happy for an option.  But as it turns out the option was no option.  Apple is really saying "Switch to iCloud Drive or we won't let any of your **** work anymore for syncing."  If I leave it all the old way on all devices it should continue to work the old way.  I stayed synced with my Wife's iPhone 4 and can't update my iMac and 4S and leave her phone in the cold because we share all our contacts and everything.  If this is all affected too with this iCloud Drive stuff, the I'm just screwed all the way around until buying 2 new phones.
    Hope someone has a solution for the syncing problems I'm facing right now.

    This fixed my 1723 error.

  • How do I replace the battery in an iPhone 3 and how much does it cost?

    I have a 2yr old iphone 3 that needs a new battery - how do I sort this out best?

    iPhones are not user servicable.
    Apple does not sale parts.
    Apple will replace the battery for $79US, but frankly, replacing that ancient device would make more financial sense.

  • How to fix this error "The error occurred while processing a command of type 'setState' in plug-in 'servermgr_netboot'."

    I received this alert while configurating the OS X Server. But i don't know how to fix the error.
    Thank's

    Hope this helps.
    I have been messing around with Mt Lion Server last day or so. Different than Lion Server, more refined, more sreamlined.
    I got this same error message when trying to enable and setup NetRestore / NetInstall.
    Looks like when one is using Wi-Fi as the network interface, you get this error. I suspected this.
    Not sure if this is a bug or Apple wants people to use Ethernet only, if so why give a choice, probably a bug.
    I have succefully used NetRestotre Lion server on a 2011 Mac Mini, worked perfectly. Then I remembered, I was using wired Ethernet, as I suspect most servers would use a wired network connection.
    MT Lion Server NetRestore / NetInstall works if you use Ethernet, and turn off Wi-Fi. Ethernet will actually show up as a selectable option under Access > Settings > Enable NetInstall Setttings On.., and you click Edit, and can check enable Ethernet.
    Once I did that the error went away. Then you get another message, if you do not have a NetRestore (in my case) image in the proper path, which you can set. I always like to do this away from the the boot volume, saves space, etc.
    You have to manually copy the .nbi folder you created with System Image Util. It seems Apple could have gone the extra step and included that in the Server GUI.
    No more Workgroup Manager, Server Admin, and the other dozen apps it tooks to admin server. Some are complaining. I for one like it very much. Always thought it was somewhat stupid and lazy of Apple to have that functionality across several apps. It was always un Apple like. It should be One App. I like what the Server app is now.
    Managing users, groups, shares, services is so much better, and refined, consolidated. Makes so much more sense.
    (Local User, Local Network User), you actually know clearly what type of user you are loooking at. WGM was IMHO a nightmare to navigate, it was schizophrenic (left over from NeXT I surmise).
    And of course one can go to the CL for all sorts of deep things like dns, changeip, dscl, odutil, etc. It's all there.

    Hi
    Thanks this has helped me solve the problem.
    I used the Outlook Anywhere connectivity tester you suggested. Selected Outlook autodiscover.
    It told me that it could not resolve things on any of the 4 tests.
    I saw that using the last test "Attempting to contact the Autodiscover service using the DNS SRV redirect method", was the only one likely to work in my case.
    I had already changed 3 entries in dns to point at my DDNS address but this had not worked, from the errors I could see that it was just the certificate name not matching so I changed the DNS entries for Autodiscover, autoconfig and _autodiscover._tcp
    to be webmail.domain.com which is a CNAME to my ddns address for the broadband router, which in turn forwards ports 80 and 443 to the exchange server for owa and activesync access. I got an error message saying that I had an illegal entry in my SRV record
    as a CNAME is not allowed, but it saved the change anyway.
    I reran the test and it worked.I can now make new outlook clients attach teo exchange.
    Thank you, after 8 hours yesterday of trying to reolve this I suddnely got it to work on one laptop but the other still would not and had lost track of what I could have changed so had no idea what actually made it work.
    Thank you for your suggestion.
