Iphone won't restore after last update error -34

AFter this last update, my 3GS won't do a full restore. It keeps saying that iTunes was interrupted and gives error (-34). Any help please??

I just got the iPhone 4S today, and previously had the 3GS. I started my iPhone as a "new" one in the store, but then I lost all my app data. So, I thought I'd restore it and backup from a version of my old iPhone. Before it would restore, it had to download 5.0.1. As it restored (and this has happened twice), the progress bar in iTunes made it about 99% of the way across, and on the phone it stopped at about 2/3rds. I checked the trash and the 5.0.1 file wasn't there (just 5.0 from my old phone). What can I do?

    My iTunes won't open after last update. Can anybody help me?

    I had similar problem this time and last time when I upgrade/update iTune, and subsequently solved the problem through the help of this person. You may give it a try and see if this works for you. It works for me now and then. Good luck.

  • IPhone won't restore after update to iOS 5

    I recently tried to upgrade to iOS 5 on my iPhone 4 but whenever I do, I receive the message: "iTunes was interrupted while restoring the contents of the iPhone “Thundercracker”. Would you like to restore this iPhone again now?" I've tried several times, with no interruptions, and can not get the iPhone 4 to restore from backup. The last backup was made immediately before the update and the iPhone was pretty full before upgrading.
    Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas on how to get my information back?

    When I tried to update to ios5 it gave me an error as well and stayed on the iTunes screen saying the device is in recovery mode along with an error number. Now,I had gone to apple store previously with this issue when tryin to restore my iPhone only. They said that sometimes the software might be crashing because of an app. The solution is to restore it as a New Phone. Then Put everything back manually. So when I was on the process of installing the new iOS 5 the error seemed to be similar and apple gives you all the troubleshooting codes and fixes. I had to put a command before proceeding. I did that and it seemed to work for one of the iPhones, I was updating 2 iPhones at the time. Then for the other one when it stayed on the iTunes screen I just disconnected and connected the USB cable again and instead of doin update I did restore first and then update and that solved the problem. After restoring it will automatically update and put the information you had before the update back to your iPhone .

  • IPhone not syncing iCal after last update

    Hello,
    I just recently started having trouble syncing my iPhone 5. I think the trouble began after I updated the OS to 7.1. The sync issue seems to be with events that I've added to iCal on my iPhone that are not being synced with iCal on my MacBook Pro (10.7.5). iCal sync works the other direction, i.e. events I've added on my MacBook will show up on the iPhone.
    I've tried doing Wi-Fi sync and USB cable sync, no difference. I walked through the steps in the Advanced troubleshooting article for calendar syncing, but that doesn't seem to have worked: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2481
    Any ideas?

    I have to say that is a completely stupid thing Apple has done - they have solved a problem that didn't exist.
    I plug my iPhone into my laptop and - bam - everything is synced.  No fuss, no muss.  To force everyone to (1) use iCloud or (2) use another syncing service is inefficient and pointless - not exactly the Apple way which I thought was the whole point of Apple's/Jobs' vision. Perhaps Apple is competing with Google to try to get as much information about us as possible?
    Just called Apple at 1.800.694.7466 and they told me the issue isn't with Mavericks per se but with iTunes 11.1.5.
    According the helpful woman I spoke to, no one at Apple knows why Apple decided to remove the ability to sync everything via USB.  She hears complaints about the change and knows it makes life difficult for folks.
    She also recommended contacting www.apple.com/feedback about the change.  She says Apple does in fact have a group of people who do read the comments.

  • IPhone won't restore after attempted os4 upgrade

    Like everyone else, I started updating last night (well this morning, at 1am) and after an hour of nothing happening, I impatiently unplugged the iphone, and wiped the phone, in an attempt to speed it up (at this point I hadn't read that other people were having similar problems)
    After 7 hours of sleep the phone had still not restored successfully. The iPhone itself is stuck at 2/3 complete and iTunes says "Restoring iPhone software" and was stuck at what looked like 95% complete.
    After an hour, it became stuck at around 97%. iTunes still works as I can use it to play songs using the keyboard controls and it does not offer me the option of force quitting (unless I use the force quit menu). I tried unplugging the phone again, and trying again, in case something somewhere had frozen.
    The phone then asks to be plugged into iTunes, where it attempts to restore back to factory settings. It quickly restores until both phone and tunes get stuck at the exact same position.
    I'm over an hour away from an Apple store.. Any suggestions?
    And while I'm asking, will o2/carphone warehouse accept this phone as a trade in on Thursday when I go to buy the iPhone 4, or will they only accept fully working phones?
    Thanks in advance.

    Finally it updated to iOS5.
    But EVERYTHING has disappeared off my iPhone. Music, photos, movies, podcasts, all installed apps.

  • Ipod won't restore after software update

    I was updating my daughter's iPod Touch last night with the new OS update. Everything downloaded smoothly, but when iTunes tried to restore her iPod, I got an error message that said there was a problem restoring the iPod. I have tried every single troubleshooting tip I could find and no luck. Is there anything that can be done without having to buy a new iPod? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Just some more information: I keep getting the "Connect to iTunes" screen on the iPod, and when I try to connect to iTunes, the iPod is not recognized at all. I have also tried the trick of holding in the Power and Home buttons at the same time; no luck.

  • IPhone won't backup after iOS5 update

    I recently updated my iPhone 4 using a friend's computer to get the new iOS5 update. Long story short, my computer has ruined 2 iphones attempting updates, therefore I used another computer. I had to delete all of my data in order to receive the update from a different computer so when I brought the phone home to put all of my data back on the phone, it froze on step 2 out of 8 (backup). I've even left it plugged in all night and that doesn't work. I have talked to the apple support line three times already. They've suggested that I disable antivirus (didn't work) and also completely uninstall iTunes and reinstalling (also did not work). Someone please help me! An iPhone that won't hold my own music, apps, videos and photos anymore is 100% WORTHLESS!

    If you are using a Mac, go to Settings>Software Update ... check for any updates, and update all.
    Chances are you are not using iTunes 10.5, which is required to sync iOS 5.
    If youare using a PC, suggest you uninstall your iTunes, download fresh iTunes 10.5 from Apple.com/itunes and install it.

  • Firefox won't open after last update on a Snow Leopard Macbook Pro

    Hi there,
    I just updated Firefox and it now bounces in the dock and then stops bouncing and the little dot below disappears. I've tried restarting the machine and downloading Firefox again. There's no error message given. Does anyone have any ideas ?
    Thanks,

    I had the same problem. I took the advice to start in safe mode and tested out my two add-ons (Greasemonkey and AdBlock) to see which was the problem. Firefox started perfectly when I disabled Greasemonkey. Hope that helps other people with this same frustrating problem.

  • Past iTunes purchases won't play after last update

    Since the last Apple and/or iTunes update, the majority of songs I purchased on iTunes now have a red square with a thin red circle around it next to the song and will no longer play. I've tried resyncing but it didn't work. I've got close to 1700 songs in my library, but only a couple hundred will play.  I've checked the forums and have tried the various suggestions, but nothing has worked.  In fact everytime I try to fix the problem, more red squares appear.   I really don't want to do a factory reset.  What's up with this and what is the permanent fix? 

    Compatibility Flag was all 0's and I double checked the Value and it was definitely 0
    I am not aware of any malware found by either MBAM or ESET. How should I check that?

  • Have a error code 4013. iphone 4s wont restore after update.

    my iphone will not restore after update. it is stuck in recovery mode. i get error code 4013 everytime a try to restore but i cant find anything on error code 4013.

    DFU mode is also good as stated above, however the instructions for DFU mode are below (please note this is not the same as recovery mode) -
    Plug your device into your computer.
    Turn off the device.
    Hold the Home button and 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
    Make sure the device screen is blank and no logos are present, device screen should remain black.
    Error 4013 is due to security software issues. Uninstall all security software completely, try again, if the issue persists I would either recommend another computer or calling AppleCare tech support at 1-800-APL-CARE (for US customers).
    Note- this is even if your device worked fine prior to iOS 7 update with your security software. The change in the operating system on the device can cause compatibility issues with these other programs.
    I hope this helps it worked for me!
