    Check the console app to see if there are any error messages. I had one app showing an issue (Pet Hotel) the error was (truncated):

    I manually snyc'ed that particular app and then re-ran the restore and am now the proud owner of a working iphone. Not sure it is the same problem or app but looking in the console was the key!

  • Updated iPad 1 to IOS 5. When trying to restore my iPad from my backup it gets half way through and the iPad reboots and iTunes says "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-1)"

    Updated iPad 1 to IOS 5. When trying to restore my iPad from my backup it gets half way through and the iPad reboots and iTunes says "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-1)"
    I have tried to restore my contacts and company data at least 20 times and every time half way through THE iPAD REBOOTS! When it boots back up it is at the brand new iPad screen.
    This makes me angry as I do not use the iPad for fun and games. I use it for business. My company data and records for the last year are gone. ALL of my out standing customer invoices are gone. ALL payments received are gone! ALL Business contacts and emails ARE GONE! All my company, personal email accounts and settings ARE GONE!
    What am I supposed to do now? In 6 hours I have to get on the road and conduct business with a empty blank factory out of the box iPad. How am I supposed to know who owes me money or who has paid their bills Apple? All of my meetings and calendar dates are GONE!
    Everything was supposed to be backed up and restored after the update!
    Question???WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS UPDATE WIPE OUT ALL SETTINGS AND APPS ON THE iPAD??? All the other updates left everything on the iPad intact and ONLY upgraded the IOS,and when it was done everything was still there.
    Yes! I have done everything. Rebooted computer, checked for updates, Hard booted iPad, Factory restored iPad to ios 5 twice, tried every usb port I have, unplugged all other usb components.
    Everytime half way through "Restoring iPad from backup..." The iPad turns off shows a spinning circle then shows the Apple logo and takes me to the brand new iPad setup screen.
    Apple, you have no idea the level of stress you have created today.....

  • HT201274 I am trying to restore my ipad, my girls forgot passcode and when I hookup to itunes nothing comes up because I don't have any itunes on ipad, what can I do

    In case this doesn't show up....I am trying to restore my ipad due to the fact my girls forgot passcode....when I hook up to PC and try to incorporate itunes, it will not come up maybe because I have no itunes on my ipad...can anyone give me any suggestions, as of now I have disabled the ipad trying for a passcode...

    You do have iTunes on the iPad. You need to have iTunes on the PC because you need to restore it now.
    You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
    Try this ..... You will have to use recovery mode

  • I recently did the 5.3 update to my Apple TV and now it is running sluggish and things keep freezing and then pictures are loading on top of each other. Then I did a hard reset today and now the WWDC app is gone. Anyone else having these issues?

    I have been having problems with my atv 3 not transmitting/receiving 5.1 surround. Whether I stream from my computer or watch movies, I am getting no 5.1 audio. The atv won't even show the option for surround. I tried to restore and reset the device but it didn't help.
    I haven't had any problems with missing apps or freezing or anything similar to what you are experiencing. This update has many bugs. Other threads have reported even more problems. Hopefully I can go back to the previous update.

  • Ipad won't start; trying to restore thru itunes, but get the message - can't restore because ipad is not set up.  What do I do now?

    Ipad won't start; trying to restore thru itunes, but get the message - can't restore because ipad is not set up. It was set up and has been in use for about a year.  What do I do now?

    I Have seen people report this issue when they try to sync their devices but in never seen it when trying to restore an unresponsive iPad. I would sguggest trying recovery mode now.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    This procedure will totally erase the iPad so I hope that you have a backup that you can restore from....assuming that it works, that is.

  • Ok I am ready to throw my S3- it drops calls constantly- sent it back, got a new one, now is doing the same thing- HELP???

    OK ok I am ready to throw my S3- it drops calls constantly- sent it back, got a new one, now is doing the same thing- HELP???- I know others have had this problem , is there a permanent fix or do i switch phones?

        Hi kiz,
    I also have the Galaxy S3 and I have not experienced any issues with calls. I want you to have the same experience! As indicated by Ann154 (thank you!), the coverage in your area may have something to do with the quality of your calls. Please provide us with your ZIP code and we'll check the type of coverage in your area. We can also replace the SIM card to ensure that this issue is not SIM card related. If you have not requested a SIM card replacement yet, please follow me and send me a DM with your account number and I will follow up with you to order a SIM card replacement.

  • HT1414 when trying to restore my ipad gen 1 it hangs on "Verifying ipad restore with Apple" then returns an error 1602

    I have tried to restore my ipad gen 1. When it gets to the Verigying ipad restore with Apple" it seems to hang then returns the error 1602. I have the black screen on my ipad so cannot get to the shut down bar. The ipad has not been tampered with or jail broken. it suddenly would only show the apple symbol for 5 or so seconds then go to a blank screen and then 30 or so seconds later show the apple symbol again. This only happens when plugged into its factory charger.

  • TS3694 error code 3194 when trying to restore my ipad?

    error code 3194 when trying to restore my ipad?

    Hey bfcjamie,
    Thanks for the question. Error 3194 usually occurs when iTunes is unable to communicate with the update-and-restore server. The following articles may help to resolve your issue:
    iOS: Restore error 3194 or 'This device isn't eligible for the requested build'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4451
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com
    Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
    1. Install the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Check security software and ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow these steps for assistance with security software.
    3. Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow the advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting steps to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information."
    4. Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    5. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
