Please help have error code 1013 and can not restore iphone 3gs

i have tried every thing i can find to restore 3gs and no luck
tried 4 different computers and 3 cables and all the usb ports on the computers
i have even tried the gs.apple.com fix and no go.. am at a loss on what to do next any help
would be great thank you all

Every time I restore I get a different code last 2 times I have gotten code 1002
And 1013 a few times.
Error 1002 usually means a hardware problem. If you've tried several known working cables, the problem is likely in thte phone itself.
+"Error 23, 28, 29, 40, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1611: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article and also attempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. If the MAC address is missing or the IMEI is the default value (00 499901 064000 0), this can also confirm a hardware issue."+

Well I spoke too soon.
The update was successful, but now I cannot connect to the 3GS data network.
Cannot get email and cannot open a page in Safari.
+"Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding."+
+"Cannot Get Mail+
+THe mail server is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings."+
Email and internet work fine on WiFi.........no data using 3GS network.
Looks like I will have to revert back to old OS.

Phone stuck in recovery mode error code 40 and would not restore

My Iphone 3GS stuck in recovery mode error code 40 and would not restore.I was with AT & T.Please help!

Hi there...
Actually I was stuck with this situation yesterday. Here is what I did to overcome this issue: I hope it helps.
To start with, here are few things to you should make sure of:
1- You have the latest version of iTunes. You may try to uninstall and reinstall iTunes.
2-Restart your Windows.
If still no luck, try editing the Hosts file, here is how;
1- click on RUN then copy and paste the following:
notepad c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
2- look for gs.apple.com
3- if there are numbers infront of it just delete them or just type # before the numbers.
4- Save the file and try restoring again.
Note: you should have administror access to edit the Hostes file.
put your iphone in DFU mode before restoring.
I hope this helps. It did for me

Lost "Encrypt iPhone Backup PW and can not Restore iPhone from iTunes?

Late LATE night attempt to Reset iPhone via USB connection to iTunes ened up insread with me Erasing All Content and Settings from iPhone directly after encrypted back up of phone to Macbook then attempting Restore from Macbook to iPhone. Lost most of my iPhone contacts and still cannot remember or find copy of pw for encrypted backup UNLESS that is because my Macbook is now encrypted with FileVault. I put a copy of the password for encrypting iPhone Backup in my 1password app and am positive it is good is only being rejected because Macbook in now encrypted. All I want is my iPhone contacts. So I am de-encrypting my Macbook now. Kind of in a pickle when you loose the only copy of you resonal contacts. Can anyone help sort this mess out? My level of computer competence is really lacking.
If they would just stop spying so much these things (encryptions, FileVault etc) would not be nessaccary.

The syncing is happening through the cell network not the wifi so it didn't help to turn off the router. Here's what I ended up doing that finally worked:
I restored the backup. Before I could use the phone, it takes me through a few steps. On the icloud step, I actually skipped it, so I didn't enter my password. At that point the phone was usable again so I went to settings>icloud and turned off Contacts. I double checked and my contacts were still on my phone. THen I went to settings>icloud and entered my password and the turned contacts back on. At that point it asked me if I wanted the contacts merged and I said yes. A few minutes later my contacts were still on my phone and I checked my icloud account online and the contacts had been syced there as well. Finally! It worked!

Make sure it's charged using a will charger. If it still won't turn on try resetting it (hold on/off and home buttons simultaneously for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple logo, release and wait for it to restart).

Hello mftoby,
Error 9 occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes.
This issue can usually be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
iOS: Troubleshooting USB connection

iTunes: Troubleshooting security software issues

Note: For best results and the fastest resolution, it may be best to try the restore on a different computer. This will help isolate if it is an issue with the device or the computer itself.
Thanks,
Matt M.
