I keep getting error 1603 when I try to restore my iPod why?

I keep getting error 1603 when I try to restore my iPod why?

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1603
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.If you do not want to remove the IPSW in the original user, try restoring in a new administrator user. If the issue remains, Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

  • I keep getting ERROR's when i try to restore ??? help!

    Whenever i try to restore i get error, and i keep getting them.
    i have the latest itunes.
    And my iphone is stuck in recovery mode, i cant use it
    please help.

    Use a smaller, more realistic font... the current posting comes across as screaming.
    Help yourself, google the EXACT error message or post it here.
    No one can offer help without specific details of the issue.... well beyond, throw the darn thing at a wall.  That would certainly eliminate the current problem.

    Look at this article, but agree with josh, always check your security software, and turn off your firewalls temporarily just in case.  Also make sure you are connecting to a good 2.0 USB port and not a hub.

  • I keep getting "Error 5002" When I try to buy an album. What do I do?

    I keep getting "Error 5002" When I try to buy an album. What do I do? I already reinstalled iTunes... not sure what this error means or how to be able to buy this album.

    There's some info on your error message number in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

  • I keep getting error 8003 when I try to download tv shows on itunes...how do I solve it?

    Help...I keep getting Error 8003 when I try to download TV shows I've bought on itunes. It says to check I have an active connection. I do! I can watch iView and SBS on demand with no problems. I had the connection checked by a technician.
    What can I do?

    Error 8003 is described here.  The article is a bit dated, but I suspect the writeup is still valid.

  • I keep getting error (-9808) when I try to download a podcast or song

    I keep getting error (-9808) when I try to download a podcast or song. I have searched the discussions & help section, but cannot find this error code anywhere. How do I fix this? Thanks. Jeff

    OK, you turned off your filewall, but did you disable Norton Internet Security completely? For some issues just disabling the firewall is not enough. I once had a connection problem with Gracenote that went away when NIS was disabled, but turning off every element of NIS individually and together did not work.
    Some people have found adding the following to trusted domains helped:
    phobos.apple.com
    phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net

    Occasionally flushing the DNS Resolver cache helps:

    Are you able to connect to the store normally with just downloading affected, or is there a general store connection problem?
    The other thing is have you run your network diagnostics from the iTunes Help menu? Posting the result might help.

    i keep getting error 3194 when i try to upgrade my iphone4 on ios 5.1.1 to ios6.what should i do?

    From the page which you posted your question:
    Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com
    Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 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:
    Install the latest version of iTunes.
    Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

    If you use a mac
    Press Shift+command+g in finder
    type "/etc"
    find "hosts" and drag it to your desktop
    delete it from etc
    restore and once your idevice is restored put it back
    if you use a windows
    Press windows button+r
    type "system32"
    go to drivers > etc
    find hosts and drag it to your desktop
    delete it from etc
    restore your idevice and put it back
