[iPod Touch 4g] Cannot restore

Nearly a week ago I jailbroke my iPod so i could mimic the look of iOS 7 on my iPod Touch 4th Gen running iOS 6.1.6
After plenty of use. I have decided that I would no longer like to use a jailbroken firmware.
So I decided to restore it back to an iOS 6.0 firmware file i downloaded to save time. And everytime I try to restore it. It turns off my iPod. Enters recovery mode for a very little amount of time and then starts back up again on the Apple boot logo. I look on itunes and it gives me this message: The iPod "******'s iPod touch" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (3194). I have followed every help thread i could find. I have redone my hosts. I have allowed iTunes through firewall. All while in adminastrator. I have ran diagnostics on Network Connectivity and it tells me this:
I have tried everything and I just cant get it to work. I really wanna get rid of my jailbreak so my iPod will work faster.
Please help.

  • My iPod Touch 4 cannot see Wi-Fi connections . . .

    My iPod Touch 4 cannot see Wi-Fi connectionsit located before, but others can still see it and it is working.  Other Apple products see it.  Not all hot spots but only AAFES.
    I have done a complete clean and reset - taking it back to factory, but no good. 
    I also keep dropping passwords on sites I am using when I never leave that site.  Sometimes it will be ok and other times i will be asked for my password over and over within a few minutes.  This usually happens on car repair forums as well as some Do It Yourself sites.  This never happens with other computers I use.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Maybe it is just a loose wifi antenna connection.

  • HT1977 I purchased a game on my ipod touch. I restored the device to factory settings last night and when I synced all the apps back, the game is now in the demo version. How do I unlock it ? I hope I don't need to pay for the full version again.

    PES 2012 is no longer available in the US App Store and only on the British App Store currently.

    That (an app no longer available) happens sometimes.
    Your only way is if you have the appt on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case move it to your iTunes library and sync.

  • Ipod touch won't restore, turn on or update

    My ipod touch will not restore.I use it only for music and my 6 year old plays the games. It was dead flat after a long trip yesterday and when I tried to charge it nothing happen. I then plugged it into the computer and a msg came up that it was in recovery mode and needed to be restored. When I pressed restore is comes up with another msg to say "software for this Iphone is not currently available update the latest version of itunes and try again" I checked to make sure I have the latest version of itunes which I do. It comes up as an Iphone which it isn't. My husband has the iphone and can plug his phone in no worries. I thought it wasn't because I don't plug into itunes very often and my ipod was behind the times in updates but when I rang Apple they are saying I have a version of the software to advanced for itunes ***!!!! Have no idea how that happen Help

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

  • My Ipod touch 8GB cannot turn on

    My Ipod touch 8GB cannot turn on even when I press the home button and sleep/wake up button together as instructed. It keeps on showing the sign whereby need to connect to Itunes. However, we connected it but it still does not turn on and the home screen never came up! >_<

    My iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well...

    Thanks for this... I actually wanted to pair my iPad with my iPod touch so I can use the keynote remote app in my iPod touch to control my keynote presentations... I was able to control my presentations through wifi... I wanted to use the bluetooth since internet connection is quite slow.. The app tells me I can connect through bluetooth with my iPad but sadly, it can't... I've been trying to pair them but the can't discover each other... :(

  • My ipod touch has entered restore mode, but when I attempt to restore it I get the error code 1604.

    My daughters ipod touch has entered restore mode, but when I attempt to carry out a restore I get an error code 1604.
    Any easy solution to this problem?

    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). 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 error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone 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.

    I can't open my iPod Touch - tried the restore message and then error mewssage 3014 - iOS problems???

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
