HT201210 iphone cannot be restored error (2003)

Hi
i have tried to restore my i phone using I tunes but on last i got a message stating that i phone cannot restore error (2003) can please help

See if it helps
Error 2001 - 2009
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. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.

Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

iOS: Unable to update or restore

When I'm trying to restore my iPhone 3g, it says "The iPhone cannot be restored. An unknown error occurred (10150

when I'm trying to restore my iPhone 3g, it says "The iPhone cannot be restored. An unknown error occurred (10150)"

If the Error is really 1015, it is most likely due to your iPhone having the iPad baseband. If this is the case, you will have to search the Web for tools to use Custom Firmware. These cannot be discussed on Apple Supported Forums.

TS1538 the iphone cannot be restore at this time because the iphone software update could not be contacted or temperarially unavailable

the iphone cannot be restore at this time because the iphone software update server could not be contacted or temperarily unavailable....
this error has been occred

"Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care?"
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.

Cannot be restored, error (-1)

Very unhappy with my iPhone 3G thus far, last year's model was MUCH more reliable... Anyway, I keep getting this message whenever I try to restore (due to my iPhone constantly crashing): "iPhone cannot be restored" followed by "error (-1)" So now what? Anybody? I called the help line, and they said it needs to be replaced. Since there are no appts available in my area, I would like an alternate approach.

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

Help! error message 'The IPod cannot be restored' error message 1418

basically the last time I tried to sync my ipod i had run out of memory. I went back and deleted some of the playlists and then why i tried to sync it wouldn't let me because some of the playlists had changed.
I then restored the settings on my IPOD and realised how to change the settings in ITUNES.
Every time i connect my ipod it says cannot sync re the playlists when I go in and then change them and click on sync it doesn't seem to be able to pick up the connection.
when i tried to restore to factory settings got the message cannot be restored error 1418... Any ideas anyone?
Many thanks

HT201210 I'm trying to restore my phone and it keeps saying that this iphone cannot be restored at this time because the iphone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable

I've been trying to restore my phone the whole day and every time that's about to finish the extration this message comes up " The iphone cannot be restored at this time because the iphone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable"
Do anyone know if there's a way to fix this? It's in DFU mode so I can't do anything with it anymore, i have no phone.
Please help.

Windows user? Maybe you should check your HOSTS file to make sure nothing is stopping you from contacting Apple's servers - though if you're not looking to update you might still be out of luck. Also, maybe disable IP blacklist apps like PeerBlock just in case they're interfering with your connection to Apple.
