    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot 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 the 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

  • The iphone could not be restored error 23

    **Hello to all I have a iPhone 3gs 3.1.3 Suddenly went Network and i Switched off the devices and turn it on again prepared But not open network and mark appears cable & iTunes And worked restor but an error message appears the iphone could not be restored 23 .**
    **The iPhone still does not function with the flag whenever two devices the same problem .**
    **Please help**
    *thankss*

    Error 23 is generally a hardware failure. If under warranty, make an appointment at an Apple store or contact whoever handles warranty & support where you live. If out of warranty, google third party repair shops in your area. You will not be able to restore with a hardware failure. To confirm, try restoring on a known good computer, if you get the same error message, you have a hardware failure.

  • Iphone could not be restored error 1669

    Instead of my network provider, my iPhone displays 'Searching...'. I tried to reset through my iTunes and my phone but could not due to Find My iPhone, so I went onto Find My iPhone on my computer and erased my phone thinking it would be like a factory reset. I have tried restoring the device but everytime I try I get Error 1669 and the restoration crashes on 'Restoring iPhone's Firmware' I was just wondering what I could do to get the phone back to before I erased it. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

    Hello, KBAKA. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Error 1669 can be similar to error 1.  Try the troubleshooting steps for error one as outlined below.
    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm yoursecurity software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.

  • Iphone could not be restored error?

    Trying to do routine update on my iPhone 4.  Then was prompted to restore my phone to original settings. Went through 3 hours of that, then an error occured saying unable to restore the phone.  Now, I can't do anything with my phone.  Tried disconnecting from iTunes and restarting both my phone and mac book pro. No luck.  Tried to get help on the apple support website, but the only options were to speak to somoeone over the phone- which can't happen right now since it's not working right now. Freaked out and phone less.

    From the support document that I provided you earlier:
    Error 1 or -1
    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • TS1424 when i try restore my iphone 3G, 8GiG, i get an error message, " iphone could not be restored, error 1015"

    hello:
    i have an ATT sim card in the phone, then i get this error message, Error 1015

    I got the same error as well, and what people say to me is that error 1015 is most likely caused when you have your phone hacked/unlocked unauthorized in other words like jail breaking or trying to downgrade or upgrade with means OTHER THAN  or not through upgrading through itunes or however appple authorized procedure

  • "the iphone "iphone "could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (6)"

    After trying to download a few applications and being told I needed a more up to date operating system on the iPhone I decided to plug it into iTunes on my PC (running Vista) and update the operating system.
    As the process was trying to do a restore the iPhone following error message appeared:
    "the iphone "iphone "could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (6)"
    Now the phone will not turn on it just shows the iTunes symbol, the USB cable with pointing to the iTunes symbol.
    I’ve tried:
    1. re-booting the PC (same error message when doing a restore)
    2. changing USB port (same error message when doing a restore)
    3. Uninstalling and re-installing iTunes (same error message when doing a restore)
    4. I tried to put the phone in recovery mode following some steps seen on another forum (holding the power and home button then releasing the power button after 10 seconds) but it does not work as expect the phone is seen instantly. Then the restore just says the same error message.
    Other info:
    • I bought my iphone just over a year ago so the warranty has just expired.
    • This is the first time I have plugged it into my PC since activating it and what’s more this PC is not the same one I activated it on (got a new PC).
    • It is a 3G phone.
    • I have not attempted Jailbreak or anything like that.
    Any help would be greatly appreciate a my phone is effectively broken, I have nearly a year left on the contract and no warranty.

    Hi
    I followed this guy's instructions and it worked:
    http://evsiphone.blogspot.com/2009/05/iphone-iphone-could-not-be-restored.html
    I did disable the security (AVG and Zone Alarm) when I tried on my own PC. My wife's laptop which eventually got it working also uses AVG and Zone Alarm but on an XP O/S whereas my PC is Vista - maybe this is why.
    Cheers for you help.

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.

  • 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.

    i have an apple 3g, tried to upgrade it to a 4.2 version, (previously it was 4.1). it wasnt successful, the computer asked us to restore it to the version which was last operational, and while restoring an error message appeared "the iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured

    "This error is caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file.

  • The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (3). How do I fix this?

    I had a problem with my iPhone 5 connecting to my service provider (verizon) and also to the internet just minutes after I had used the internet to browse before work this morning.  I tried soft reset, hard reset, and connecting to my computer, but nothing worked to get it back to normal.  I decided to do a system wipe and restore it as well, but I get that error: "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (3)."  I googled that and searched for literally 7 hours without any luck.  Any and all help is appreciated.  Thanks!

    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!
