How to fix iTunes error 3014 when upgrading iPhone firmware

Please helpme with this error. I purchased my iPod touch months ago and configured it perfectly. I decided to update it with my latest purchases from my iPhone 4G. I synced my iPhone successfully. When I went to sync my iPod Touch it just shows a picture of the USB cable pointing to iTunes. When I try to restore I get the message above. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!

  • Encountered error 6  when upgrading Iphone 5s from 7.1.2 to 8.3

    I encountered error 6  when upgrading Iphone 5s from 7.1.2 to 8.3
    I've tried upgrade iphone on three computers , the results are all the same.
    One of the computers successfully upgrade my ipad to 8.3.
    There are 2GB left on IPhone 5S before I perform the upgrade.
    It should be enough for iTunes to finish the process, right?
    But in the log, it says  "copier_file_error: /mnt2/mobile/Library/PreinstalledAssets/com_apple_MobileAsset_Font.cpio: No space left on device"
    why is that?
    Any way for me to continue the upgrade?  it seems it's almost done.
    Thank you
    the end of the log  is as below:

    Hello there, Kenduck.
    It sounds like you are trying to update your iPhone 5s to the most current version of iOS and are getting an Error 6 message. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great information in regards to that very error message:
    Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    Particularly:
    Check your security software
    Errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006.
    Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't blocking a connection to the Apple servers.
    If you still see the error message, check for USB connection issues.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Kind Regards,
    Pedro.

  • ITunes error 17 when upgrading/restoring?

    Every time I try to restore or update my iPhone 5s in iTunes (using my Windows Vista) I get the message "The iPhone/iPod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured (17)", and my iPhone is stuck in recovery mode. (I have a program to "kick" it out of recovery mode so I can still use it without needing a restore.) I'm not sure what is causing the problem, but it's really anoying and I would like to get it fixed ASAP. I have already tried restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, disabaling my firewall, and uninstalling my antivirus, but nothing has worked. I am positive that the problem is not being caused by the iPhone because I have tried to restore / update my old iPod 4g, resulting in the same error code... One more thing, I was getting "error 3004" earlier, but that turned into "error 17" whenever I disabled / uninstalled my antivirus (McAfee from Bell)... Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

    Hi,
    I've just had the same problem with iPhone 5s and because I have a Windows PC and a MacBook Pro, I tried on both side: with the same error : unknown error (17). I found a post here on the apple community, about how to fix this error on Mac OS X (https://discussions.apple.com/message/24051676#24051676) and it worked for me. I tried, after fixing the problem on OS X, to see if there's any similar fix for Windows and I found this (http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netsysm/article.php/991281/Net-Tip-etc hosts-for-Windows.htm).
    In theory, in /Windows/System32/drivers/etc there's a file named "hosts" that looks like the one on Mac OS X.
    I haven't tried yet but maybe if you delete from that file all the *.apple.com entries, it should work again.
    Let me know!

    In the article Resolve iOS update and restore errors this is what it says about error 1:
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • How to fix runtime error R6034 when using Microsoft Vista on an HP computer.  Started with the last itunes update.

    Problem started after loading last itunes update.  Uninstalled itunes from my HP but still getting error message when I start up the computer. Is there a new update on itunes?

    Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    (The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
    Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?

  • Does anyone know how to fix 'itunes could not backup the iphone an error occurred'?

    Tried absolutely everything suggested to remedy this very annoying Iphone 4s backup problem, wish Apple would just get round to fixing the problem that a lot of people seem to have for some time now, 'iTunes could not backup the iPhone because an error occurred' refuse to part with £25.00 to be told they don't know how to fix or they are not aware of the problem being so talked about on their support communities. Please please help, its been 4 months now and I have tried absolutely everything out there.

    You really tried EVERYTHING in that article? I'm impressed, it's a long list.
    The most common cause is a currupt current backup. Deleting the current backup should fix it if that's the problem. You need to delete it in iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. But with Windows unfortunately that isn't always enough. You need to use Windows Explorer to make sure the backup is completely gone, as the system call that deletes a folder sometimes fails to delete it completely. So open Explorer and make sure it's gone, and if it isn't delete it using Windows. The location is:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7/8:  \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.
    There have also been reports that some apps prevent the backup from completing, probably because they create files that the backup program doesn't recognize. The most common offender reported is iZip.

  • How to fix itunes 11 crashing when opening songs or videos?

    Please help me? After itunes 11 upgrade, itunes keep crashing when trying to open songs/videos?

    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 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.
