HT201210 Ipod could not be restored.  The device cannot be found.......WHY?

While doing a sync on my ipod, it asked me to update my software from Version 4.XX to Version 5.1
It failed giving me error 37 which was correcected and the as I continued it gave me error 1604.
Since, I cannot restore my ipod  I get "Ipod cannot be restored.  The device cannot be found"
At least if I can get it back to its original or factory setting.
Suggestions?

    1) Make sure you are running the latest version of itunes.
    2) Make sure you have no pending software updates on your computer.
    3) Make sure you are running on a usb 2.0 port.
    If all else fails, you can always restore on another computer with itunes.

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reboot the computer
    - Try another USB port and cable.

  • The iPhone iPhone could not be restored. The device cannot be found.

    Hello,
            Just tried to update software on my Iphone4 and it failed now whenever I try and restore it
            It comes up with this message "The Iphone iphone could not be restored.The device cannot be found"
            Ive had a look on the web but cannot find any HELP!!
            If you can help me, a few nudges in the right direction would be very well recieved

    Ok,
           The Phone is now restoring, looked everywhere for an answer, tried the holding down of the home/standby
            buttons, started the recovery ,extracted the software, then it would say "the  iphone iphone could not be                restored .The device could not be found" done this about 4 times
           The solution!!!  gave it to a friend who put it on his PC (I have an Imac) and he reset it, then plugged back            into Mac and it restored it back to the last restore
           one point i did notice you have to take your pin off, it said something like insert pin free sim
           Hope this helps somebody

  • HT201210 Every time i try to restore my iPod it says "The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An Unknown Error occurred (28) why is this happening??

    Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

  • HT201210 the ipod could not be updated. this device isn't eligible for the requested build. what is this? what to do to update my iPod

    the ipod could not be updated. this device isn't eligible for the requested build. what is this? what to do to update my iPod ?

    This device is not eligible for the requested build (Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194")
    Update to the latest version of iTunes. Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) users may need to download iTunes 10.6.3.
    Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, followTroubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
    Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate 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 do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
    Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

  • HT201210 I have an error....The iPod 'iPod' could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (2003)

    I have an error....The iPod 'iPod' could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (2003).
    Please can someone help?

    Maybe this:
    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.
