Hi!
It looks like there might be some security settings or software on your laptop that's preventing the restore process from working.
Check out this article in Apple's support. It shows you the steps you can take to try to get around error 1611.
Like diesel vdub said, a DFU-mode restore might give you success where a regular restore might not, so maybe you can try that.
What you need to do is put your phone into DFU mode, which is a low-level mode that helps the restore process get a little more done, or it can help iTunes get around certain roadblocks (hopefully like the one you're experiencing!). Your computer will install special DFU-iPhone drivers for it, and then iTunes will see it as a phone that needs restoring.
To get your phone into DFU mode:
Plug your phone into your laptop.
Turn the phone off.
Press and hold the power/lock button. Keep it held in, even after the display turns on and you see something on the screen. As soon as you see something on the screen, start holding the home button as well as the power button, so that they're being pressed together.
Keep both buttons pressed down for 10 seconds.
After 10 seconds, release the power button, but keep holding home until the laptop sees a new USB device. Once you see that, you're in DFU mode, and you can let go of buttons. Your iPhone screen will be blank during it all, even though it's actually on, in DFU mode.
Now your restore should work!
If your phone shows the Apple logo or anything else while you're trying to get it into DFU mode, then something went wrong. Try the steps again. If it suddenly starts up normally again, try reducing the time to a bit less than 10 seconds--try reducing it by about a second at a time. It should work!

HT1212 asked to connect with itunes but it wont sign in

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

IPod Touch can't stay connected to iTunes

I just bought an iPod touch but when I try to connect it to my WinXP laptop, it won't stay connected for more than a few seconds. I hear the iPod make a sound when it sees that it is connected to my laptop and it appears in the iTunes list for 10-30 seconds before disconnecting. After several tries to stay connected, sometimes iTunes claims that it can't connect to the "iPhone" and gives me an error 0xE8000001.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. No success.
I tried different USB ports. No success.
It seemed to work fine for the first few days after purchase but now this problem has come up

Hi, DJSchmike.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are experiencing issues with iTunes disconnecting your older iPod nanos automatically. This can be difficult to troubleshoot and you have already processed some great steps with no resolution. The next step would be troubleshooting USB connections and security software conflicts. Here are some troubleshooting guides that I would recommend going through.

When i try to download an app it says that Its imposible to connect with iTunes

When i try to download an app from the App Store i Get a Message that says that it si imposible to connect with iTunes. And it wont ley me download. What should i do

So the exact message was 'si impossible'?
Try rebooting the iPad by pressing and holding both the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen,then let go.

I've downloaded the past 2 updates for my iphone 5s and now it keeps asking me to trust my own computer and it wont even connect to itunes!

I've downloaded the past 2 updates for my iphone 5s and now it keeps asking me to trust my own computer and it wont even connect to itunes! I am current with software on both my computer and my iphone 5s. Now when I hook it up to my computer it still keeps asking me if I trust the computer and it won't connect to Itunes?

DFU mode? How do I do that? So far the only thing I can do is hold down both buttons to power it on and nothing is on the screen and it wont reconize on my computer....

Blocked my computers connection with itunes/apple...?

This has given me a headache and a half. Techies, please take the time to read through this. I know its complicated...
So, my old ipod was jailbroken. It stopped working so i was determined to unjailbreak it so my warranty would not be voided. I followed this guide to restore it.
http://hackstor.blogspot.com/2010/03/restore-with-saurik-method.html
I have windows, and this guide told me to select start, and then run, and type this in C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
The guide told me to open the file up through notepad and add this to the bottom of it 74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com
I did this.. and it then told me to open up run again (terminal for mac users) and type in cmd.exe and the following commands:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns
I did this and succesfully restored my ipod touch. I then got a new ipod touch but when i tried to sync it with my computer it wouldnt work. i decided that its because i forced my computer to recognize the jailbroken software, and not apples software. I tried to reinstall itunes. Itunes was reinstalling and the status bar was filled up all the way, as if it was done installing.. but it stayed like this. I decided that its because my computer was still trying to recognize the jailbroken software. I took the line "74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com" out of my hosts file and went back to cmd.exe and typed in ipconfig /flushdns and ipconfig /registerdns thinking that it would solve my problem, but now when i go to apple.com and click on download itunes, the link that normally says "DOWNLOAD NOW" is not even there.
Here is a screenshot of my problem
I have somehow completely blocked my computers connection with itunes or apple. I have a new ipod waiting to be synced but i cant even download itunes.. and if i do itunes might not even properly connect with apple. Yes, i made sure my warranty was not voided by restoring my ipod.. but it doesnt help if i cant even use it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please read the guide i used to restore my jailbroken ipod so you can understand what i did. I am running windows xp.
Thank you.

IPod Touch doesn't stay connected to iTunes

I have two 4th gen iPod Touches. They are both running iOS 6.0.1. I have them connected to iTunes 11 wirelessly on my MBP (OS X 10.8.2), which is also connected wirelessly. Everything goes through my Apple Time Capsule, which has a built-in router. I also have an iPhone 4 and iPad 3rd gen connected.
For some reason, the iPods have a difficult time staying connected to iTunes on the MBP. One in particularly will usually drop off before the 24 hour mark. The other will hang around for a few days and then drop off. When I check either iPod, I see the wifi icon in the top left. Rebooting them causing them to appear back in iTunes on the MBP.
I did a complete reset/restore as new last night on one of the iPods and this morning it is goes from iTunes. This is the one that usually drops off earliest. Is there something particular to iPods that causes them to drop out of iTunes?

Since not problems with the other network that would temd to indicate a problem with Optimum network. You can try:
Do other devices now connect OK to Optimum?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem that indicate the Opitmum network is the problem

Ipod wont stay connected and icon disappears from finder

I have a new 80g video ipod, have had it for about three weeks. Up until today all was fine, but now it won't stay connected to itunes after updating files. It connects, shows up on the desk top for a few seconds, updates any new files and then just drops out. It keeps the do not disconnect screen for a few seconds, then the red warning logo disappears and after that i can not do anything with the ipod in itunes. The ipod music list is greyed out and I can't add any new photos or change anything. The only thing I have done differently since it was last working ok was I connected my camera using the camera connector and uploaded some pictures from that.
I have done a reset and now a restore but that hasn't helped.
is the problem with the ipod or itunes? What can I do?

Sorry, this may be a case of "always read the manual first"!
I think that what I thought was a fault with the ipod was in fact due to the default preference for auto syncing being enabled. As I had my previous ipod set to manual update I was used to being able to make changes to the ipods lists whilst connected, but as my new ipod is still set to automatically sync I now realise that this is why the ipods list was greyed out. In this mode it appears that it is usual that as soon as you connect, itunes updates any changes and then disconnects and the red "do not disconnect" screen on the ipod goes. If there were no new additions or changes to playlists made since the last time you connected, the sync will only take a few seconds and then the ipod screen goes back to the menu list. Also, because in auto sync the ipod will be updated with a copy of your itunes contents, the ipod's list is greyed out due to the fact that you are not able to make changes independently from your itunes list. (i.e. you have to make the changes in itunes in order for these to be replicated on the ipod).
In order to keep connected and be able to alter things on the ipod list you have to have the preference set to manually update. Then the ipods contents are not greyed out and you can add, delete and change playlists without doing this in your main itunes on the computer.
So I think I have answered my own question, unless I am still misunderstanding something here, and the moral is, download and read the manual properly before worrying that there is something wrong with the machine!
I still think its a bit weird that the ipod icon disappears from he desktop though as I thought it would be at least recognised as being attached even if not in disc mode. Should it still show in the finder anyway?

Wifi wont stay connected

i just got iphone 5 and wifi wont stay connected,ive noticed lots of comments about this but no solutions?? does apple read these comments and if so why do you have no bloody soloutions for them in the discussions page,very frustrated

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

HELP!! Macbook wont stay connected automatically to wifi? why?

I live in apartments with tons of wifi signals. I have a secured wifi and no matter how many times i enter my password and everything my macbook wont stay connect automatically to my home wifi.
I have to use diagnostic assistance every time to connect to my wifi. It wont work. I have read some of these other forums but the suggestions don't work. Tried adding unsecured wifi signals to preferred and move to bottom and mine to top. no luck. I don't understand the DNS option so i didn't try it. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE, ANYONE
THANKS!

When you live in an area with lots of wifi signals you are in a situation that may cause degradation to your own wifi network.
When the 54g channels were created it turned out only 3 of those channels can be used, 1, 6 or 11.
all the other channels bleed.
So you should use a wireless sniffer such as air radar
Then look for the 3 strongest signals that are close to you. Then change the channel your wifi is broadcasting on to channel number 1, 6 or 11.
Unfortunately you may find that no matter what channel you use you are going to be close to someone else on the same channel.
The solution is to upgrade your network to a wireless N network. Using the 5ghz high band channels you have many more channels to use.
regarding your network diagnostics dont list any other network other than your own in the preferred networks. Regarding DNS your router should automatically assign a dns server.
