DFU mode is also good to try first if Recovery Mode has not worked, (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.
If DFU mode fails to work, here is the more tedious resolution -
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!
is there any thing else you can do i have tried a new cable, three diffrent computes, putting it in dfu mode, and getting rid of my security alltogether. when i try to update my iphone gives me the new apple logo then a spinning wheel at the bottom then turns itself off. when it comes back on it gives me the battery symbol like it is completely dead and needs to charge even though it is fully charged. once it comes back on it gives me the old apple logo then takes me back to the connect to itunes screen. thats when i get the error code 4013.

  • Who knows how to fix iphone 5s blue screen of death and itunes error 4013?!

    Hi
    Last day, dec 14th, a blue screen of death appears on my iphone 5s, aparently because I was installing facebook app.
    After that, the iphone remains restarting over and over non stop, until the battery shutoff.
    I try to press home and power/sleep buttons for 10 secs, but stil continuous with the blue screen.
    After that, with battery charged, I tried to hold the home button and simultaneously connect to an usb cable (the cable is in perfect conditions) to start itunes.
    Its worked, but now, everytime shows an itunes message: error 4013, "the iphone cannot be restored".
    What can I do now?!
    Thanks

    Hi Tks777,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you see an "error 4013" when you try to restore your iPhone, try these troubleshooting steps:
    Error 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, and 4016
    After you perform each step, try to restore your device.
    Restart your computer.
    Disconnect all your USB devices from your computer and connect to another USB port.
    Use a different USB cable.
    Uninstall third-party security software.
    Try restoring using an alternate computer.

    Hello Sean,
    It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

  • HT201444 My iphone 6 screen suddenly turned red and collapsed into a black screen, I can't restore or reset it, error 4013 appears on itunes

    Last week I bought my iphone6 and today, when I was using it, a red screen appeared and it collapsed into a permanent black screen with an apple in the middle... I restarted it a few times and tried to connect it to itunes and restore it, but it doesn't work, it starts the restoring process but after a while it fails and error 4013 appears on my Mac's screen. I don't know what to do, please help me I really need to use my phone right now.

    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 another cable                                                       
    - 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.

    So I was updating  iPAD and while updating it stopped and gave me a typical error message but with error 4013. It worked fine before and is now stuck in the "connect to itunes mode" recovery mode. I have tried updating and no luck. I have even tried updating in DFU mode and no luck. Anyone git any solutions

    Are you following these instructions?
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

  • Iphone recovery blue screen and error 4013

    Been trying to recover my iPhone 5S which just started rebooting itself and freezing a few days ago. It has taken me 3 days to down load the update software from Apple site as the phone was on 7.1.1 Now in recovery mode and cant change it. I was getting error 9 then managed to get the software restored to the phone which now has the recovery logo in red which I see as progress. But it crashed while doing the firmware update from iTunes.Rebooted my PC to see if it would help but now get an error 4013. My PC has let the latest iTunes updated on it and tried another cable, still no joy.

    Thanks, looked through that document already and tried to a raise a support call but out of warranty so on my own unless I want to pay for support.
    If it is determined that it is a hardware issue, then you should be able to get the support payment refunded.  Of course, in that case, you're looking at a $269 USD + tax out-of-warranty replacement cost.
    Or you can go to an Apple Store for free assistance to determine if it is a hardware failure or not.

    I try to connect it to itunes but when it tries to install the software again it appears error 4013. i tried changing the usb port anda the connecting cable buit it doesnt work. what shall i do??

    Did you already check these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

  • Can't restore my bricked ipad getting error 4013

    HELP. My Ipad has been stuck in a reboot loop. Have tried to restart and resore but keep getting Error 4013. Ipad now useless.
    Please help.

    Hi,  error 4013 could not restore ipad/iphone
    I had the same issue as you what I did to reslove the issue was to:
    1.   Make sure the ipad is in DFU recovery mode (waiting for you to plug into itunes symbol)
    2.   Use an original ipad cable that came with it our from another ipad
    3.   Do not use any type of extension cable between the ipad and the pc/mac
    4    Before you plug in your cable to the ipad move it to another USB port on your pc/mac one that you have not tried before or normally use
    5.   start itunes by right clicking on itunes run as administrator.
    6.   when itunes detects in recovery mode start the recovery.
    7.   Your pc/mac now detects the ipad hardware again and installs the driver properly again.
    8.   sit back and voila.
    hope that helps.
