  • HT201210 Unable to restore iPhone 4S - iTunes server not responding

    I have recently brought an iPhone 4S. First the Receiver stopped working, then the phone blacked out and started emitting heat.
    It just got worse, when after a lengthy chat with the customer care (do they really ????) folks, decided to restore the iPhone from iTunes. I am receiving an error stating that the iTunes server is not responding and that I should try again later.
    Please assist.
    Thanks
    Anand

    Sounds to me like your computer is out of disk space. You're going to have to free up space on your hard drive before you can restore your phone.

  • Email address hacked via iphone. iphone locked home screen displaying my email password! and has been reset. now unable to restore iphone, saying i do not have permission

    Email address hacked via iphone. iphone locked home screen displaying my email password! and has been reset. now unable to restore iphone, saying i do not have permission

    If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

    I had the same problem.  To fix it, I first tried a different computer and different USB cable.  When the error still appeared on the different computer and different USB cable, I unplugged the USB cable from the iPhone, opened up the iPhone and disconnect the battery from the iPhone main logic board (three screws).  I left it unplugged for a few hours.  Plugged back in the battery connector and then restored in iTunes.  Hope this works for you.
    Um, no.  Opening up the iPhone voids all support from Apple.  Do not make recommendations on this forum that will violate Apple's policies or procedures.

    restoring an iphone 4 in iTunes comes up with error -1 what to do

    Hi there Roger,
    If you have as yet been unable to restore your phone, I would use the troubleshooting in the following article about that very subject, named:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
    If the issue persists, you should use this section of the following article that mentions that exact error number, named:
    Get help with iOS update and restore errors
    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.
