This is true.
All of your content should be on your computer in itunes. If it is not, then transfer it there, so you can sync it back.

I am trying to restore my iphone and it keeps telling me that the iphone cannot be restored. It also tells me that the iphone cannot do the requested rebuild, or something like that.

Open a terminal window and enter:
sudo   vi   /etc/hosts
You will be prompted for your login password, then you will see the contents of the hosts file in the vi editor. It should look like this:
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1       localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost
fe80::1%lo0     localhost
If there are any lines that contain "gs.apple.com" you must delete them. If you are not familiar with the vi editor:
press <return> until the cursor is on a line that contains gs.apple.com
type "dd" (without the quotes) (you won't see the dd as you type)
repeat until all of the gs.apple.com lines are gone
type ":wq" or "ZZ" (note that :wq is lower case and ZZ is upper case)
