Trying to restore my iphone 4 but i keep getting an error (2001).
The phone will only stay on when it is plugged in and it is the screen that says to plug in to itunes. I get the error 2001 when it begins to restore and sets me back to the beginning. ive tried to hard restart it but i cant unplug it or it turns off.
From:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. -

The next article is the companion of the more general article above. Follow the above article first. If, after following that article, the issue persists, continue with this article:

my iphone 4 i bought was jailbroken to ios 6.0.1 redsn0w but i tried to restore the iphone and now it keeps saying connect to itunes but when i connect and try to restore an "unknown error" occurs and it will not boot up whatsoever. please help!
If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Trying to restore my iphone 5c, but it says i have to turn off the 'find my phone' option in icloud. when i try, it brings up the wrong apple id. I reset it under itunes & app store in settings but still not working...frustrated!
Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, click Restore button of iTunes on computer.

I am trying to restore my iphone 4s, but encountered 3194 error code. Would appreciate any suggestions.
Possibly something is blocking Apple through iTunes from approving your iPhone Restore. Sometimes this is due to your computer Hosts File redirecting your request away from Apple. Seach your computer for Hosts, open this file with Word Processor program. If there is any reference to gs.apple.com this is the problem. This name and the number with it needs to be removed.

Hey Leonard,
If you are having an issue with being unable to restore your iPhone, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes - Apple Support
Should the issue still be present, use the steps for that error code in this article -
Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
In particular the section titled Check your security software -
Related 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.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
