Hey there ejs11201,
I see that you are getting an error code when attempting to restore your iPhone. Here is an article that addresses that specific code with some troubleshooting steps and will help you resolve the issue:
Check your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't blocking a connection to the Apple servers.

    Yep, me to exactly the same problem,  the error message keeps telling me to check my internet connection  or try later.  Nothing wrong with my internet connection.  Is it an apple server problem?

    Nope, you'll have to restore.
    Hope you have a backup to restore to.

  • TS1436 I keep getting unknown error occured(4450) when trying to burn a CD...running Windows Vista, any help would be appreciated

    I keep getting unknown error occured(4450) when trying to burn a CD, running Windows Vista...any help would be apprciated.

    I had this issue to when trying to burn discs recently. I went into the CD creation settings in iTunes and I "unchecked" the option to "Include CD Text" and after I did that, the disc I had been trying to burn several times with error, actually burned without fail. Give that a try and see what happens.

  • Unknown error occured (310) when trying to connect to itunes store

    Unknown error occured (310) when trying to connect to itunes store

    This is probably due to a connection error.
    I fixed this by navigating this route:
    Control Centre > Network and Internet > Internet Options > Connections Tab > LAN Settings > Untick proxy server box (if ticked).
    Hope this solved your problem!

  • HT201210 I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?

    I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Did you manage to fix the issue?
    I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
    This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
    I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update!

  • Unknown error occurred (-23) when trying to update to ios 5

    When I tried to update my iphone to ios5, I get the error message: There was a problem downloading the software for the iphone. An unknown error occurred (-23).
    I have already updated itunes to the newest ver 10.5 already and I never had any issues updating my iphone 4 to the newest IOS previously.
    Anyone has any idea how to resolve this issue? Thanks.

    I just got off the phone with an apple support assistant pertaining to error -23. For myself, it is due to internet settings that my ISP provides that prevents the upgrade. (Are you in Singapore with the ISP Singtel? The apple support assistant specifically mentioned Singtel users as having the -23 error.) The apply support assistant adviced me to wait out for 2 business days and then see if I can upgrade. I hope this is the case for you too.
    Otherwise, error -23 means either a hardware error or improperly configured settings, which shouldn't be the case if you have itunes 10.5 and the latest osx build.

  • An unknown error occurred (-1) while trying to restore Ipad 3 new

    Happy iPad users, I may need some help from you please.
    I’ve got a problem with my iPad new 32 GB WiFi + 4G LTE.
    I bought it just recently in China and was using it for nearly one month without any issues.
    Then at some point i started getting synchronization problems with iTunes and applications that I have downloaded did not run properly or simply won’t start on my iPad. Then I’ve lost cellular signal.
    Trying to resolve the issues I had to reset iPad to factory settings and after that I could not register it with apple. I tried many times with no success.
    Then I went through some internet articles and decided to restore my iPad and finally I’ve got my almost new iPad stuck is restore mode!!!
    I cannot get it out of restore mode and I cannot get it restored.
    When I try to restore it I get the following message:the ipad "ipad" cannot be restored. An unknown error occurred (-1)the ipad "ipad" cannot be restored. An unknown error occurred (-1)
    The ipad "ipad" cannot be restored. An unknown error occurred (-1)
    Here are the things I’ve done so far trying to restore it
    Tried to restore in on Windows XP – no luck, same message
    Tried to restore it on Windows 7 – no luck, same message
    Tried to restore it on MacBook – NO LUCK, SAME MESSAGE
    Tried to use recovery fix option on redsn0w. Did not help. I tried different versions of this program with no success. Maximum what I had is my iPad was entering “white apple mode” after clicking fix restore button.
    Tried to restore iPad from DFU mode both on Windows XP and Windows 7, no luck, same message (error -1)
    I suspect that my iPad may have a hardware issue however I still hope it can be fixed with your help.
    We don’t have an official apple support centers where I leave and I would like to try all the options before I send it to abroad apple support center or to a shop where I bought it.
    Please can anybody help me with advice on how to fix my iPad?
    Thank you all in advance.

    I am facing the same issue, have you had luck getting it solved?

  • An unknown error occurred (-1) when trying to update my iPad to iOS7.

    Last night I attempted to update my iPad 2 to iOS7. At some point during the process, the iPad locked up and I was presented with a screen instructing me to plug into iTunes for a system restore. I did so and after approximately 10 minutes, I received the following message, 'The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (-1)'. I have since re-tried about a dozen times to restore and keep ending with the same message. Is this just a case of the servers being overwhelmed? Should I try again in a few days when things calm down? Or has the update killed my iPad? Do I need to take it to the Apple store?
    Thanks Apple... Frustration level is off the chart.

    I am facing the same issue, have you had luck getting it solved?
