Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Error 1015 might happen after making unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
Resolve communication issues
Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, 3000, 3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3015, 3194, or 3200. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build."
Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.

  • It says it needs to be connected to itunes and restored.  when i do that, it goes through the whole process then comes up with "iphone could not be restored. unknown error code (-1)".  Please help

    My brother gave me his old iphone when the touch screen went out on mine.  It's in great shape but when I received it, it says that it needs to be connected to itunes to be restored.  I have done this and it goes through the whole process then says iphone "iphone" could not be restored.  unknown error code (-1).  There is not a -1 code on the list and I have tried most of the suggestions.
    Does my sim card need to be in when I am doing this?  And any other suggestions?

    I did put it in DFU mode but its still not working, although everytime it shows your iphone needs to be restored. Kindly help.

  • Internal rpc error (error code:2).  Please help.

    Our Oracle database is on Solaris 9. When we do stress testing on database and server. We have got this error message.
    Monitor name :UNIX Resources. Internal rpc error (error code:2).
    Hint: Check that RPC on this machine is up and running. Check that rstat daemon
    on this machine is up and running (use rpcinfo utility for this verification).
    Details: RPC: RPC call failed.
    RPC-TCP: recv()/recvfrom() failed.
    RPC-TCP: Timeout reached. (entry point: Factory::CollectData). [MsgId: MMSG-47197]
    The error appears randomly when number of users querying database increases to high number.
    Please help me to figure out the reason and solutions. Thanks in advance.

    consider the following
    not for copying
    but for studying working code
    to help clarify ideas
    import java.io.*;
    list items and count of each item
    in a list of socks
    file has list of socks ...
    4
    red sock
    green sock
    blue sock
    green sock
    the first line is n = count of socks
    if no socks match, there are n items
    for example : 3 items in ...
    3
    red sock
    blue sock
    green sock
    if all socks match there is one item
    for example : 1 item in ...
    3
    red sock
    red sock
    red sock
    if socks come in pairs, there are at most n/2 items
    for example : 2 items in ...
    4
    red sock
    green sock
    red sock
    green sock
    program does not assume that socks come in pairs !!
    public class Socks {
    public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
    String[] socks = new String[1000];
    int numOfsocks;
    String[] item = new String[1000];
    int[] count = new int[1000]; // initializes each count to zero
    int totalcount = 0;
    int i;
    int j;
    boolean ifound;
    FileReader fr = new FileReader("test.txt");
    BufferedReader inFile = new BufferedReader(fr);
    numOfsocks = Integer.parseInt(inFile.readLine());
    for (i = 0; i < numOfsocks; i++)
    socks[ i ] = inFile.readLine();
    inFile.close();
    for (i = 0; i < numOfsocks; i++) {
    ifound = false;
    for (j = 0; j < totalcount; j++) {
    if (socks[ i ].equalsIgnoreCase(item[j])) {
    ifound = true;
    count[j]++; // increase count for matched item
    break; // exit "for j loop"
    } // for j
    // sock not found so add it to item list ...
    if (ifound == false) {
    item[totalcount] = socks[ i ];
    count[totalcount] = 1;
    totalcount++;
    } // for i
    for (i = 0; i < totalcount; i++)
    System.out.println (item[ i ] + ", count = " + count[ i ]);

  • Error code -43 ?  Please help-

    I've picked up a few items in my hard drive that I can't seem to get rid of. Whenever I try to move these folders to the trash I get "The operation cannot be completed because one or more required items cannot be found. (error code -43)." What gives? Thanks in advance.

    -43 fnfErr File not found; Folder not found; Edition container not found; Target not found.
    That is strange because if that is true of a visible or broken file it should either no longer be visible or should let you move it to the trash. Can you give us any more details about what kind of file it is and where you got it from?

    This means that either your firewall/antivirus is blocking access to Apple's servers, or you have used your computer to jailbreak an iDevice in the past. The link above tells you how to resolve this issue.

    cannot activate my viber after i update to 6.1.3 iphone 3gs..can u please help me...the the code is ok but if i activate...its being error.

    @theViberTeam .
    I'm having trouble with Viber.
    A few days ago, I accidentally uninstalled it on my IPhone 4, and reinstalled it later on..
    When I tried sending the activation code using the same cell phone number I had on Viber before It got uninstalled, I receive the code but when I try to put it in it keeps saying that I entered the wrong activation code, I click on the no code feature on the top right corner of Viber, it gives me a code, but when I put that code in it says the same thing ,that I have the wrong access code please try again, and so I researched on the internet and came up to this post, It said to uninstall viber and wait 24 hours to install it again, I waited 24hours and tried it again, but it STILL does the same thing. and... I even tried entering my other phone number, yet it does the same thing and shows me the same message that I entered the wrong access code....It is getting frustrating! May you please Help ME?! What can I do??

    You might try reading the entire help document you linked from:
    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:
    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. FollowiTunes: 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.

    Go elsewhere. JB voids the Apple warranty and means you will get no support from Apple, including from this Apple forum.
