Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. 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 the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device 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 pod touch wont sync or backup as states backup is corrupt?

    My I pod touch wont sync! I understand from other communities that I can do this manually using a drag and drop method but how do I turn on manual management. It will no longer back up as it states that the backup is corrupt.

    - Try deleting the existing backup (iTunes>Preferencs>Devices. select the backup and click on Delete).

  • HT1923 i-pod touch wont work!

    My i-pod touch has a USB connection pic as well as the i-tunes logo on it and it wont resent in anyway. Is there a way to fix this? It doesnt show up in i-tunes, nor does it show up in windows explorer. I have re-installed i-tunes, but that hasnt made any difference.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Hey i HAVE/HAD the same problem but right in THIS moment i solved it! And i'm gonna tell you how:
    1) You have to uninstall ALL the programs that are from Apple.
    2) Go into control panel if you are on a windows and delete everything that says Author (Apple inc.)
    3) Here is a list of every thing you have to Uninstall:
    Apple application support
    Apple mobile device support
    Apple software update
    Bonjour
    iTunes
    Quicktime player
    Safari
    4) After that just go to Apple.com and download the lastest version of iTunes!
    5) Install it and sync your iPhone/iPod Touch out of Recovery mode.

  • My 4th Generation Ipod Touch wont restore.

    My Ipod starts to restore and it and then it says there is an error. I have done this numerous times and it keeps doing the same thing. Before it started doing this, it wouldn't even connect to my computer so I had to download Itunes on another laptop. Now it is doing this. This is my second iPod touch that I have had trouble with. If this does not get fixed I will never buy anything  in the Apple brand again. I should not have to deal with this.

    Why are you telling us?  Perhaps you should call Apple.  800-275-2273 in the U.S.A. and I think Canada.
