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

if itunes can no longer pickup your ipod, and you cant even do anything to your ipod, your best option is to either call apple care, or just take it to the nearest apple shop. i had a similar problem, mines currently at apple care repairs and they might just end up giving me a replacement.

Thanks for the update and clarification. In researching the issue it seems that the 2003 error code may have something to do with the USB connection. I would use this section of one of the above articles:
Get help with iOS update and restore errors
If the USB connection between your device and computer is interrupted, you might not be able to update or restore.
To narrow down the issue, you can try different equipment:
Use the USB cable that came with your device, or a different Apple USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port directly on your computer. Don't plug it into your keyboard.
Try a different computer.
Solve other issues with the USB connection, then with your security software.
If you still see the error message, check for hardware issues by following the next section.
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
These errors mean that your device or computer might have a hardware issue that stops the update or restore from completing.
Check that your security software and settings aren't blocking 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.
Make sure 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.

That error sometimes indicates a hardware problem. See 2nd link below.

Typically this indicates a device that has been hacked to be unlocked or jailbroken.
If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

I am running Aperture 3.1.2, and trying to install the updates (3.1.3, 3.2.2, 3.2.3), but after opening the .dmg image, installer says I need to have Aperture 3 installed, which I have. Any help would be appreciated.

I am running Aperture 3.1.2 and trying to install updates, but the installer cannot "see" my application and won't proceed with the installation.

Read another entry and solved the problem. I had changed the application's title to read Aperture3, instead of its orignal descriptor "Aperture." Sorry to have used the space, but thanks for the help.

HT4623 I'm upgrading to ios 7, and I'm getting a message saying "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server could not be reached" I've gotten this now 10 times and have even tried activating it through iTunes which also did not work.

I am trying to upgrade my phone to iOS 7, I restored it so it would download the new software and now it is telling me that it cannot be activated. How do I get around this?

unfortunately no, a million people are attempting to update their phones right now, and thus activate them. Patience will have to suffice.
For the future, I would recommend not updating essential work devices on the launch day

Iphone could not be restored....

I am trying to downgrade my iphone 4 from ios 6.1.3 to ios 6.1.2 but always failed to do that. Two days ago i was not having any type of error using itunes. But since two day i am facing error in using itunes with my iphone. Whenever i try to downgrade it first of all error 3194 comes, somehow i fix it and try again then it say that iphone could not be restored because iphone update server could not be conected or temporarily it is down.... I use to fix it with tinyumralla then i try again and another error 1600 is faced by me..... I am very upset what is happening... Plz give me good suggestions so that i would be able to use iphone with itunes without any errors..
Some additional information: uninstalling itunes and then again install is done by me many times. I also restored windows 7 to factory settings... No jailbreak
Thanx plz help

You cannot downgrade an iPhone. Period. That is why you get an error when you try to downgrade.
Oh, yes; the reason that you get the message about the activation server is because you used tinyumbrella. It corrupts the network database on your computer. If it were possible to ban a program it would be high on the list.
