impossible (Period)
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wasted 3Gigs of a 10 Gig Bandwidth cap to failed attempts
I have Cisco and COMPTIA Certifacates in Networking and I tried (and KNOW I tried em' right) all the troubleshooting tips provided.
open the firewall, turn it off, uninstall the security programs, run netsh commands, try on another computer, done tried without a router, straight through our modem,
I came to Rankin Inlet Nunavut, from Arviat Nunavut, trying to get my new business going in Tech support, EVERYTHING is fine but this.
one of my customers, a trustworthy lady with her young boy's itouch who locked his new bPresent, I told them it would be easy I've done it many times. BEFORE ios F'EN FIVE.
Someone please give me a work around to unlocking this itouch without have to spend another $30 dollars to buy an Extra Gig of bandwith to get 2 more failed attempts on a usless 750MB update.

I forgot my password and am trying to reset my ipod, but it won't work.It says that my ipod is in recovery mode and that I must restore it. I click ok, and then click on restore and update. Then it says connecting ipod software update server and a screen pops up with ipod software update on the top and iOS 5.1. It lists a bunch of stuff this update contains and on the bottom it says next, which I click and nothing happens, it just goes back to the ipod restore page. Help, what am I doing wrong?
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: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > 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. -
my ipad is in recovery mode and eveytime i go to restore and update a message comes up saying error has occured 3194
Yes, I'm having the same problem. My iPad Air worked great on OS 7xx but since updating to 8.01 and now 8.1, the display went crazy. Now, I'm also stuck in the restore loop and the iPad is useless. Oops, it finally looks as if it is going to restore as I'm writing, we will see what happens. All my data was erased as well.
All for nothing, itunes says the device has been wiped but it will not start (the screen glows and that is all.) -
iphone in recovery mode,i'm restoring and updating to itunes but download cannot be completed...
my phone wont open, i can't even turn the power on.
what to do? pls help
(iphone 4 and iphone 4s)So I just did this on my iPhone 4 and it worked like a charm it unlocked it immediately. My phone was put into recovery mode and I know that not all data is deleted it just puts the phone into a sort of hibernation in order for the files to stay uncorrupted. I went to http://www.recovery-ipad.com/iphone-stuck-in-recovery-mode.html downloaded the software it unlocked my phone in a matter of minutes. Calls, messages, photos, apps, and voicemail was all there as if it never happened If you leave it unregistered you don't have to pay for it works for either windows or mac. Hope this helps!

When trying to restore and update my ipod touch it comes up with an error message saying: "The ipod can not be restored this device isnt eligible for the requested build" How do i fix this?
I am having the same issue. I just had the battery replaced at a third party store. The battery powers the ipod up but it needs to be restored. It is saying it isn't eligible for rebuild. I am running MAC OS 10.4.11 itunes v. 9.0 and I just want it to be restored. I need help. Oh and its an 8 gb ipod touch.

We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten. Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ? Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?
Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences. -
ok - my ipod touch is stuck on the itunes screen. Have tried shutting it off, plugging it into my windows computer, and it does recognize that it's there. it goes to restore mode, then immediately goes to restore and update. then back to restore mode, then an error message. don't know where to go from here, any suggestions?

thank you very much ...but can not be unlocked
If the phone was NOT unlocked, it can't work or be activated with any other carrier than AT&T. It CAN'T be used with Tigo or Movistar.
Your post makes very little sense. Maybe you can get some help with English. -
I tried to do an update. Was prompted to do a restore and update. I am getting an error message. It will not restore OR update. I have tried all of the troubleshooting and it won't work now!
Disable your firewall/security software.

TS3297 Did a "Restore and Update" now I can't activate my iPhone 4s
When I saw that iOS7 was finally avaible to download, I immediately clicked on it to start it however it said I needed at least 3gb of memory to do so and I did not have that. I looked on my usage on itunes and I saw that I had 3.6Gb of "other". I wasn't sure why I had that much "other" data on my phone so I searched the web and found that that much "other" data usually corresponds to corrupted data and the solution was to do a restore to the phone. I then did the "restore and update" on itunes after backing up my phone then found that when iOS7 had been put onto my phone but it wouldn't let me activate it. When I tried to do so over wifi it said "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes." My phone was already connected to iTunes during the first time but when it tried to connect to my phone I got an error message from iTunes saying: "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was reset. Make sure your network connection is active and try again." My network connection is active so I don't know whats going on. I've gone through the activation process a number of times and even tried restoring my phone again by holding down the lock and home button for awhile. I've looked over the apple support page a little bit but I'm pretty sure there is nothing there that will help me. Someone please help fix this problem, I need my phone back. Thank you in advance for your feedback and for your time.
I also have the exact same problem you have. My Iphone 4s is also stuck and won't activate. I've looked through the Apple forums and see that many other people have the same problem. Supposbly Apple is having problems with their servers. So I guess we have to wait

Ok I need help. I went to use my phone, put in my passcode, emergency dial came up, then the phone said I didn't have an imei #. I hit the back button and then I was told I needed to restore and update using iTunes. I tried several times to do this and my phone is still not working. It acts like it's updating, but once the bar reaches the other side of my phone, iTunes tells me there was an error. I used all the ports on my pc, changed cables, restarted my pc, and still nothing. Can anyone please help me. This phone is my life and I can't afford to get another one.
Sounds like you might need to take it to an Apple Store but if it is an iPhone 3G it would no longer be under warranty.
Looking at the Apple Store online you can get an iPhone 3GS from $49 on AT&T if it comes to having to get a new one. Your other option is second hand. -
I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode, however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again? I have updated and restored 5 times! When connected to itunes it only shows the summary page saying ipod in recovery mode.
Fixed it!
1. Made sure itunes software was up to date
2. Pressed and held 'home' button and 'on-off' button at the same time for about 10 seconds till ipod reset (I hadn't done this step previously)
3. Connected to itunes
4. Pressed restore and update ipod
Update successful and ipod taken out of recovery mode
