HT4623 while restoring my iphone, an itunes msg pop up saying that "the iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1015)". What are the problem?

what is the error 1015? msg pop up while restoring my iphone.

This usually means the iPhone has been hacked/jailbroken and it may no longer work as a result.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1015
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

  • When I attempt to upgrade an app in iTunes for windows, I get an error:  "Could not purchase.  An unknown error occurred (11111).  There was an error in the iTunes Store.  Please try again later"

    When I attempt to upgrade an app in iTunes for windows, I get an error:  "Could not purchase.  An unknown error occurred (11111).  There was an error in the iTunes Store.  Please try again later"
    I am running the latest iTunes 10.7.0.21 for Windows 7.
    This error occurs if I try to either update the app or if I delete it and attempt to redownload.
    I have an iPhone and an iPad.  I am unable to update the apps or install the apps from within the App Store on iOS.
    I do not have an AOL ID, as is a common issue with this type of error.
    From what I can tell, my Apple ID account seems fine.  I logged in, changed some information, and ensured my credit card is valid and updated.
    I can download new apps just fine.  I am unable to update or install apps I have purchased in the past.

    After 30 minutes this morning, no resolution. Then another tech support call this afternoon, 15 minutes in, was escalated to a Tier 2 (Senior) advisor. He said something similar to the above ("this is one of the strangest things I've seen"). He was chatted with iTunes guys and took all my info into the case and was escalating it over to engineering. Said they would be in touch.
    So, no solution...yet.
    Just to clarify:
    iTunes on Windows7: trying to update an existing app, or re-download a prior app, gives the (11111) error. Downloading a new (free) app worked fine.
    App Store on iPhone5, iOS 6.0.1: click on UPDATE, switches to INSTALLING...for a second, then switches back to UPDATE. No error message (and nothing in Diagnostic data).
    App Store on iPad 3, iOS 6.0.1: same as iPhone 5.
    Definitely account related.
    I have cleared the store cache, signed out and back in, deleted the credit card data, and re-added, rebooting PC and iPhone...nothing works.
    Will post if I hear anything back from Apple.

    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.

  • Itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error occurred (13010)

    Using iTunes 8.

    It just shows that it tries to run in the Processes tab in the Task Manager. I get the error then the pocesses stops.

    I created a new user account and iTunes opens fine...
    Can anyone help.??

    I too am having the same problem. I have followed the above advice - I followed this advice http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421 to no avail. For what it's worth, It appears to be isolated to my user account. I also tried uninstalling and deleting all apple software including the itunes folder in my music folder plus deleting the registry keys before reinstalling. I also tried to move th Genius files onto my desktop as per the above suggestions. Any advice?

  • The itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error occurred (1301

    I launched iTunes 9.0.1 today and got this error:
    "The itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error occurred (13014)"
    An archived tip on the iTunes for Windows forum that suggested deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb. That didn't work, I also had to delete iTunes Library Extras.itdb. (For the record I renamed them instead of deleting, but the original post suggested deleting).
    Anyway, I thought I'd pass that on in case anyone else experiences this problem.

    I had the same error and I keep my iTune folder on an external drive due to size. I tried to create a sub-folder to temporarirly hold the itdb file(s) and give it a try. The system wouldn't let me create the folder, at which point I remembered I had left my mac on but unplugged to find the battery drained in the morning. Upon plugging it in, it came back but then told me I hadn't exjected my external disk. So, I figured there might be a correlation. I tried to eject the disk and it wouldn't let me though no programs were running. So, I went ahead an chose to "Force" the eject via the option it presented me. On the un/re-plugging the disk, I tried to created a subfolder and it worked. Before moving any files to it, I tried starting iTunes again and voila, it worked. So, I suspect the comment above about files being locked is what bit me. Hope this helps...

  • ITunes could not copy...unknown error occured (-50)

    Hello.  I'm getting the unknown error (-50) when trying to sync or copy songs to my ipodtouch.  Part of my troubleshooting was to upgrade to the latest iTunes and the latest iOS. Both actions were completed today.  Firewalls and security are turned off.  Only certain songs have this error.  I can copy other songs.  I'm wondering if there is something in the mp3 file that is preventing this?  I'm running Windows XP.
    Thanks for the help!

  • The Itunes Library File Could Not Be Saved A unknown Error Occurred -1450

    I keep getting this error message since I updated to this version of Itunes. Ver. 7.0.2.16. I had absolutly no problems until this update. I have removed and reinstalled twice..and I mean removed all files ccleanered the whole PC the whole she-bang, re-ripped my music, new ITL library,XML every thing, over five thousand songs.
    I noticed while importing songs I would get this 1450 error if I tryed doing to many songs at once, looked like a resources issue even though the memory and processer usage was showing plenty of headroom..?? But now its popping up while just trying to play songs in ITUNES. It says its unable to save the file etc. and causes stutterring in the song but amazingly song counts etc. show up in the times played and date played columns. The ITL file also shows as having last been changed/modified at the same time the error message says it couldn't be saved...anyone know what's going on here???
    Tried running with no virus checker running, no firewall etc. Ran a tweakIU routine ...a fix suggestion that I found on a google search, reset the file permissions etc.
    I also get the insufficent privilages message error when trying to set ITUNES as default audio player....(I have ADMIN priv.)
    I'm apparantly not the only person experiencing this, a Google search gets a lot of hits on this 1450 error message.
    HELP PLEASE
    ASUS CUSTOM   Windows XP Pro  

    Well I believe I may have found the solution to the -1450 error at least for my situation.
    While pouring over settings I noticed ITUNES runs in a protected memory space. Well this along with the symptoms displayed (being unable to update the library file if a large number or files are changed/edited added etc.) led me to examine my virtual memory settings under the Windows/control panel/performance/advanced/Memory usage tab and I noticed that for some reason memory usage was selected as optimized for "System cache" VS "programs". I changed this to programs and also while in the same area disabled the EP "execution prevention" feature of the INTEL processor.
    I can now import change/files listen to music etc. without this -1450 error presenting itself.
    I'm not sure which of the two steps solved the problem but I suspect the Memory optimization being set for "system cache" was the problem.
    While I never had any problems running other apps.(I do have a lot of memory)I think ITUNES was having a problem with this setting when writing to and from temp files and the ITUNES.ITL file.
    I have no idea how or when or why this setting was as it was as all my other PC's are set for program performance optimization.
    Hope some one finds this helpful.

  • I am getting the following error message - the itunes application could not be opened - an unknown error occurred (-50). Help!? It won't even open up.

    I reinstalled iTunes because it stopped opening up and now I'm getting this error message when it refuses to to open. Help?

    If you right-click iTunes and Show in Finder, is it located in the Applications folder?
    Try trashing the iTunes plist files from ~/Library/Preferences/ and relaunch iTunes (all of the fies that have com.apple.iTunes in the name).
    If that doesn't work, try following Apple's document -> Removing iTunes for Mac OS X.
    WTH.
