I get error 23 when trying to restore my iphone 4

I tried to update my iPhone 4 to the latest software and it got stuck on the store screen...whenever i plug it into itunes it will go through the process up till it says verifying with apple. Then error 23 comes up and I am not able to do anything with my phone...this is urgent my phone has been broken for 2 days!
thanks

These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

HT201210 why do i get an unknown error when trying to restore my Iphone 3GS,

i was informed (by app store icon i had apps that needed to be updated ,
i said ok to the 2 updates ,
the phine then asked me (as usual) to insert my pass word
it said i had used wrong pass word and re-enter it which i did
this then set my phone to keep switching itself on and off repetedly
i tried to switch off the phone using the power button butg at first this did not work,
i then pressed reset (power button and home button, as requested in the user guide
my phone then came back on with the itunes and usb logo tgelling me to connect to itunes to do a restore ,
after the phone tries to update itself with the download
although the phone trys to reboot and use the down load it just keeps disconnecting fron my computer
and itunes come back with an error message telling me it cannot make contact with the phone
there are no other fixes on your site
so now my phone is out of warranty it is now useless
i had though of upgrading to an iphone 4S but am now thinking do i want to do that now this has happened
maybe its time to go back to android also recently bought an IPAD touch which up to now is fine
but not sure if i should keep this as ive never had this happen to me before and the phones are so expensive
my old galaxy android phone still works fine , so ive now put my sim card in there and works fine after 5 years continuous use
what would you suggest i do now
what will you do to make me stay with apple ????

Have you tried to download anything else?

HT201210 I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?

I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?

Did you manage to fix the issue?
I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update!

When trying to restore my iphone 3 i get error 1015, please help?

Hi,
When trying to restore my iphone I got an error 1015 and it says the iphone cannot be restored. What should I do next?

This Error is often received when the iPhone has the iPad baseband installed. So iTunes sees a higher number in your iPhone and gives downgrade Error 1015, because iPad baseband is numerically higher than iPhone 3G baseband. You will have to search the Web for the complete fix which in now available.

Hey there ejs11201,
I see that you are getting an error code when attempting to restore your iPhone. Here is an article that addresses that specific code with some troubleshooting steps and will help you resolve the issue:
Check your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't blocking a connection to the Apple servers.

HT201210 what is error (1618) when trying to restore an iphone 5

what is error (1618) when trying to restore an iphone 5???

Try uninstalling iTunes, restart your computer and re-install iTunes.

Keep getting sync service error when trying to connect my iphone 5S.

Keep getting sync service error when trying to connect my iphone 5S. It freezes itunes and I can't do anything else. I see that there is an update for my phone and I need to back up, upload new apps, etc before installing. I plug my phone in and get this error every time. I am using a Win 7 SP1

Howdy Susie48825,
It sounds like you are getting an error that mentions the sync services when you connect your phone to your computer and so you cannot sync your device. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article that mentions an error regardign the sync services named:
iTunes for Windows: "Unable to load data class" or "Unable to load provider data" sync services alert
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2690
Start with these steps:
1. Check that iTunes is up-to-date
Ensure that you have updated to the latest version of iTunes.
2. Reset Sync History
Resetting your Sync History is a simple step which may resolve some syncing issues. If this works, iTunes will prompt to Merge or Replace the information on your device when you next attempt to sync. To reset your Sync History:
Disconnect your device.
Open iTunes.
From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
Click the Devices tab.
Click the Reset Sync History button, and then reconnect your device.
If this resolves the issue, and you know all of your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your computer:
Reset the Sync History again using the steps above.
Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" select Contacts or Calendars.
Click Apply.
If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
Click Apply.
There are additional steps to use in the article if needed, but these will get you started.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Currently using Flash Pro CS5, getting error when trying to open CS4 file. Error is "Slides and Forms documents are not supported in this version of Flash. Please open in previous version.

Currently using Flash Pro CS5, getting error when trying to open CS4 file. Error is "Slides and Forms documents are not supported in this version of Flash. Please open in previous version. Has there been a fix or patch to this issue or do I have to convert back to CS4 to open the file?

Having the same problem in CS6. I can tell you that converting back to CS4 will NOT solve the problem. It seems when support for backward compatibility is discontinued, there's just no way to get
any help at all? Absolute failure to provide any user support so far...
