I just backed up my phone in iTunes and then did a restore and at the end of the restore I got a popup that said an unknown error has occurred and now my phone is dead. Shows a pic of USB with arrow to iTunes... iTunes says phone in recovery mode

HELP!!!

Try DFU mode:
Plug your device into your computer.
Turn off the device.
Hold the Power button for 3 seconds
Hold the Home button without releasing the Power button for 10 seconds
Release the Power Button but keep holding the Home button
Keep holding the Home button until you are alerted by iTunes saying that it has detected a device in Recovery Mode
NOTE: Make sure the device screen is blank and no logos are present

    Looks like I fixed it., thanks to another post I read.  I went into my Norton Security.  Under Settings. Chose Firewall. Program rules. changed the itunes setting from "auto" to "allow"  This also fixed my error (-3212) which would not allow me to connect to the iTunes store.

  • PLEASEEE HELP ME! "serious error has occured" and now it wont open

    So I have been working on a video for youtube, and as always Adobe being a peice of crap shuts down every 5 minutes or so when I am doing a lot of effects or text, but pretty much it doesn't bother me anymore. Until last night I had been working on a project (it is saved because I click the save button every minute or so) and it said " a serious error has occured and we shut down immediatly, your project will try to be saved" or something like that. It has done this once or twice before so I was just going to open it back up. But now when I go to open it it does the little "im loading thing" for like 2 seconds then doesn't do anything..I gave it time to see if that would help. no. I also tried opening it up from another spot (not the desktop) but from my documents/adobe/4.0/ then my project, does it work? no. I am sooooo mad at it since I have had so many issues with other movie makers and other computers recently being soo stupid like this.  and I thought this one was actually gonna work. but no. BTW it is Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0, if that helps. If ANYONE can give me a suggestion that DOES NOT involved rebooting and losing my current project which has taken me SEVERAL HOURS of VERYY specific effects almost down to a different one every second please tell me....and I would be DEVISTATED if it was gone! So pleaseeeeeeeeeeee help me if you can. Thanks so much.

    If it's a piece of crap, why are you trying to fix it?
    Otherwise, how about telling us more about your system. Like which operating system you're using, how fast your processor is and how much free, defragmetned space is on your C drive?
    Also, what kind of camcorder did your video come from and how did you get it into your computer? Which project settings did you select when you set up your Premiere Elements project?
    Version 4 was a very stable build. But we can try to figure out what's up with your system if you give us some details.

    Sign Out of your Account... Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    Same problem here since latest update.  As usual poor support from Apple with no answer or fix for this bug.

  • TS1424 I am having issues downloading music from iTunes, it comes up saying an unknown error has occurred - please check your network connection. Now I can connect to iTunes store and have itunes as an exception for downloads so don't know what else to do

    Hello, I've started having an issue downloading songs and apps from iTunes to our PC which has Windows XP Professional installed. We also use Karspersky Anti-Virus and Firefox as an internet browser. Have never had this issue before, it comes up with "An unknow error has occured and downloads are stopped with an error 8003. Also says please check your network connection" We have no issue connecting to iTunes store or the network so not sure how to fix this. It is very frustrating. Have checked Windows Firewall and iTunes is an exception, can't think of anything else why it won't work.

    I sounds as though you need to start again. The following article tells you how to completely remove iTunes and Quicktime. If you didn't actually install iTunes you wont find it in add/remove programs so you can't do that bit, but still delete the iTunes folder in Program Files as advised in the article.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
    Once you have got rid of them, try installing the latest version of iTunes. There is a link to it in the article.
    Itunes wont move your music for you, get iTune sgoing then ask again.

  • IPod will no restore shows unknown error has occured with code 1429, how do i fix this probem?

    Ipod classic 80G will not restore, says "An unknown error has occured, error code 1429" how do i fix this problem?

    This has just happened to me today. I have an iphone 5 on Verizon. I was using the internet on the device normally when it started. It couldn't access any online data even though it had 4 bars of service and LTE. I restarted it and it would be stuck "Searching for network". I tried wiping the phone with no luck. It gets stuck at around 99% of the firmware restore process and hangs there for about 25 minutes before itunes gives me the error described above. I tried the recover-mode restore with the same results.
    I need a working phone ASAP, this is extremely frustrating!

  • The iTunes Library cannot be saved an unknown error has occurred (-48)

    Every few minutes, I get an error message from iTunes that says:
    "The iTunes Library cannot be saved an unknown error has occurred (-48)"
    Quitting and restarting iTunes doesn't seem to make the error go away.  All of my music and movies seem to play just fine - not sure why the error keeps popping up - any clues?
    - iTunes library is located in it's normal spot (~/user/music/iTunes/)
    - OS 10.8.2
    - iTunes 10
    - iMac 27" early 2010

    Thanks again for the gracious response UV.
    You've pointed out a problem...there are a lot of WAV files that I have like unreleased live shows of bands like the Beatles, Neil Young, Miles Davis etc that I've gotten off Bittorrent trading. When I look at the "get info" part of the song in iTunes the details that I've hand entered (dates, venue, song, musicians,etc) does show up.
    But when I go back to the actual file itself, many are simply tagged something like "track 1" and the only way I currently keep track of all this is how I organize my library ( Musician or Band folder \ Album folder \ indivual tracks). There are literally thousounds of songs that I've entered data for on these WAV files.
    Besides getting my current error problem fixed, has anyone who trades live shows come up with an easier way to organize their music. I understand that I may be in the minority with all my WAV files and that many users simply upload CDS, or mostly buy tracks online which is easier to simply grab the data back if they need from some database. I feel like I'm missing out on something big. Maybe I just need a different program for my particular application (archiving & playing music). ANy ideas from other bittorrent traders of unreleased material?
    I am learning more and more about how this all works by the minute, and have taken your advice UV about copying all my current library info and putting it somewhere safe. Hopefully this means everything I've entered up until a few days ago will be fine. Still, I have plenty music waiting for me to hear in FLAC files that need to be decoded into WAV files; but I want to wait to do this until I can be certain all my hard work entering data won't go to waste and my error problem has been fixed.
    thanks for all insights - Sonny

    Please help.... cannot get into the ITUNES account. It says unknown error has occured. Is there a problem with ITunes?

    Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help.  Thanks Apple for such a crappy update!  I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone.  Sheesh!  If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

  • I rented a movie via Itunes on  my PC but half-way through the download recieved a "An unknown error has occured (-50)" notification. This is not my first rental, and I have verified my network and all connections to be good. Will I still be charged?

    I rented a movie via Itunes on  my PC but half-way through the download recieved a "An unknown error has occured (-50)" notification. This is not my first rental, and I have verified my network and all connections to be good. I have rebooted Itunes and resumed the download of the movie only to receive the same error code. Has the movie file been corrupted? Can I recover the rental even though the time has elapsed? Will I be charged?

    Did you figure this out?  I haven't rented a movie in this new iTunes yet and saw one tonight I wanted to rent.  Same fricken thing is happening to me.  I hate this new iTunes, and I really hate that there are problems like this....why the heck do they have to fix something that isn't broken and break it?  This just really stinks.

  • I was installing a new update on my MacBook Pro. With only 20% left it said "an unknown error had occured, please restart your computer." Now that I've restarted - I can't log in!

    Ok, my MacBook haven't had any issues earlier, until today. At first Safari was acting kind of weird in that sense that a lot of letters were missing when you went on certain webpages, so I thought of updating since an alert-window popped up and notified that new updates were ready to be installed. So I opened up App Store through my Applications-folder and selected update.
    First it asked if I wanted to connect my Mac to a powersource but since I had charged the battery to 79% I didn't think it was necessary. So I continued, computer restarted and began installing the updates.
    Everything went fine until it was approximately three minutes left. An error message popped up and said something like "An unknown error has occured. Please restart your computer and try again". I pressed OK, rebooted my computer and when it asked for my password I typed it in. After I pressed OK, the computer indicated it was the wrong password. I tried multiple times and sometimes with different passwords... so now I can't simply log in! What's the problem?
    TL;DR - Updated mac, failed after five minutes and now I can't log back in since "I have the wrong password"
