Iphone 5 syncing error, code 1156?

I am getting an error message that says cannot sync, an unknown error occured, (1156).  I've already restored the iphone 5 twice. its brand new.
anyone have a clue what this code means?

Reboot your computer. If it doesn't help, try this:
Sign out of iTunes Store
Disconnect iPhone and switch off ‘sync over wifi’
Close iTunes
Shutdown and cold re-start computer
Start iTunes
Dock iPhone and allow sync to take as long as needed (10 mins+ for me)
Force new sync and watch steps flow through
Sign in to iTunes Store

  • Iphone syncing Error code 1156

    I sync my iphone every other day or so and have never had a problem.  But today I am getting an error message.  What happened?

    Do you have Parental Controls enabled?

  • Sync error code (-54)

    I get the following error code when attempting to sync my 5s on my HP computer running Win 8:
    -The iPhone 5s cannot be synced.  An unknown error occurred (-54).
    I purchased AppleCare when I bought this phone and after multiple phone calls with AppleCare the last contact I had, I was told "We will review the diagnostic files you uploaded, and I will call you back."  That was three weeks ago, and after sending two follow up emails, now the supervisor at AppleCare has not and does not call back to resolve. (I think AppleCare is no longer the value it once was).
    Has anyone else had the sync error code (-54)?
    How did you resolve it?

    On the Windows version of iTunes, error -54 means a general IO error occurred that can be caused by many different things: a file is corrupt, a file is locked, or an .m4a file could not be converted to a lower bit rate.

  • HT201210 iPhone 3G restoring error code "1015"

    I am getting the error code "1015" and this webpage is not helping me AT ALL.  Any help? I get the code when trying to restore my iPhone 3G.

    This Error Code is indicative of the Device being jailbroken / Hacked...
    Sorry... But...

  • How to restore iPhone 3gs with error code 1015 ??

    How to restore iPhone 3gs with error code 1015 ??

    The only advice we can give is to try and put it into DFU mode and restore. If that doesn't fix it, buy a new phone.
    There is a reason that Jailbreaking isn't supported. You have just been kicked in the donkey by it.

  • IPhone 4 Internal Error Code 28 07

    While using my iPhone 4 (running iOS 6.1) that I recently bought second hand from ebay, an error message will randomly pop up saying "Internal Error Code 28 07" with the option to either accept or cancel. No matter what I select it will always take me back to what I was doing and nothing will be wrong. I have read a lot about this error being to do with being stuck in restore mode, not being able to sync etc, however none of these apply for me. At the moment it is not so much of a problem as nothing is actually wrong with it, however it would be nice if anyone knew a fix for this because it is quite annoying. I was considering taking it to my nearest apple store this weekend to see if they have anything to say about it, however it is about an hours drive away so decided to post here, and many other places, first.
    tl;dr Internal Error Code 28 07 keeps coming up but nothing seems to be wrong. Anyone have a simple fix?

    That's probably due to a problem with your SIM card. Talk to your carrier about it.

  • Error while downloading iphone firmware update (error code -3254)

    Hey guys,
    I am using the German versions of iTunes and the iPhone. When I connect the iPhone to my machine, iTunes starts up and proceeds to inform me that a new firmware update is available. After the license agreement is confirmed, nothing seems to happen for a few sceonds. Then, an error message pops up which tells me that "an unknown error has occured". The error code is -3254.
    I searched Google and these forums for variations of this problem, but couldn't find anything suitable. The error code is not mentioned anywhere.
    My iTunes version is 7.6.1.9 (running on Windows XP)
    My iPhone has firmware version 1.1.3 (failed while upgrading to version 1.1.4)
    I found out that similar errors can be caused by firewall misconfigurations, but the built-in iTunes diagnosis tool didn't report any connection problems (I also temporarily opened all of my router UDP ports, didn't help at all).
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm having the same problem. The download finishes and then it says an unknown error occurred. It says it has something to do with my network connection, but I don't think that's the problem.
    Did you find a solution yet?
    I tried to reinstall iTunes but it didn't work.

  • Iphone 3g sync error

    I have been trying to sync my iphone 3 for months. The only way I get it to sync is to restore it to the original settings. Everything goes fine till I get to step 4 of 4 and I get the message "Itunes could not back up the iphone "iphone" because an error has occurred". I have tried everything and nothing seems to work. Itunes has the most current version and my phone is up to date. Can anyone please help me?
    Amanda

    I found the culprit. I was logged in to my account, with my wife's account active in the background. Her account had iTunes open. When I logged out of my own account (having closed iTunes) and went back to hers, her iteration of iTunes popped up a bunch of notices about trying to sync my iPhone.
    Thus, I quit iTunes under her account (and made sure no other accounts were active), logged back in to mine, opened iTunes, and am now successfully syncing. Problem solved.

  • IPhone not syncing - error 1139

    Since recently I receive the following message from iTunes when I'm connecting my iPhone to sync with it. Does anyone know what I can do about it?
    The iPhone "name" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1139).

    I am getting the same error. In iTunes, when I highlight my iPhone and click on the "photos" tab, my phone is trying to sync all photos and albums. The choice of "select albums" is there but is not available to select as it had been in the past.
    So anyone know why we can't select that option anymore?

  • TS3694 Can't update iOS7 to Iphone 4 with error code 3004

    Hi Support,
    I can't upgrade my iphone 4 OS to iOS7. Please advise what error code 3004 means.
    Regards,
    Alex Man

    From the article that the question was posted from:
    Network connection or download errors
    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes can't contact the update server (gs.apple.com)  on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software isn't interfering with ports 80 or 443 or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow these steps to troubleshoot security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (go to "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you're using a proxy, try again without using a proxy.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.
    Error 3004: If you're using a Mac, you may be able to resolve an error 3004 by quitting iTunes and using the following command in the command line: dscacheutil -flushcache.
