    how do you solve a error 1015 when restoring a iphone from recovery mode?

    This error is generally exhibited when someone tries to downgrade iOS. See this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    This is the part you are looking for.
    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed. Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported. 
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

    I have the latest iTunes 12.1.2.27. However, I am unable to restore my iphone4s. iTunes was able to detect an iPhone in recovery mode.
    The error is something like "Unable to restore the iphone. Make sure you have the latest iTunes and try again." This is the latest version that exists currently.
    I am using MAC OS X 10.7.5.
    Please advise.
    I have tried all the steps in the apple support.

    There is nothing to backup.
    If the device is showing the Connect to iTunes screen, there is nothing on the device to backup.
    The first step in the update process is a backup... restore the device using that backup and try again.

  • HT4061 When proforming the new iPhone update I received an error message-iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.  You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.  If I choose to restore will i get everthing back.  Like my photos et

    When performing the new iPhone(IOS6) update I received an error message - iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.  You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.  Will I lose everything if it goes back to factory settings.  Right now my phone wont do anything.  It is just showing a cable, an arrow  and the iTunes logo.

    If you restore from backup.
    You should have made sure that everything was on your computer bef ore updating anyway.  Did you fail to do that?
    All pics taken with iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update/restore/etc.  Did you fail to do that?

  • Help iPhone 4s could not restore (error 1) - stuck in recovery mode

    I thought I had successfully converted from iPhone 3g to 4s could not connect to att phone service.  To reinstall, I reset to iPhone 4s to restore factory settings. software downloaded successfully, but after install completes I get a message that iPhone 4s could not restore (error 1).  Followed by message that iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode and that I can restore original setting bu clicking Restore.  Doing that reats the problem  After 10 attempts, I am frustrated.  Itunes no longer shows capacity, software version or serial number for iPhone .  Lists those as n/a.  Need help

    Unfortunately the restore did not solve the connectivity problem, but it made it even worse. The phone was not connecting to the carrier at all, constantly showing "Searching...". I tried another restore, this time it failed on three different computers (one of them was a fresh iTunes installation)... Strange, that it worked once.
    @Unshaven: Multiple combinations of Power and Home button did not work either. Seems to be bricked now. I think I have to return it to Apple ...
    Btw. Windows iTunes showes some log errors like 'getenv radio-error' failed and DoesDriverNameMatchDeviceID failed.
    Any ideas welcome also regarding the issue of loosing connectivity to the carrier...

    You have to restore the iPod, no ifs, ands, or buts...
    After iOS is installed you will be asked if you what to set it up as a new iPod or if you want to restore from a backup.
    If you have a good backup you can restore that and you're good to go.
    If you don't have a good backup, then you end up with a "clean" iPod....

  • 4.2.1 update downloaded to my imac,but has put my iphone in recovery mode!!

    Hi,as the title suggests yesterday I downloaded update 4.2 to my imac and when it finished downloading I got the message,"itunes detects an iphone in recovery mode.You must restore the iphone to be compatible with itunes." So I clicked on the restore icon and after a couple of minutes I get the same message about being in recovery mode.
    I've been on the support site but nothing,checked out a couple other sites aswell,downloaded Recboot,iRecovery,tried on another computer to restore,but nothing is happening.
    Love my apple products,but so p#####d off that when something goes wrong it's a nightmare.
    Please can anyone give any advice that I haven't already tried.
    Cheers

    What happens when you try to restore, does it give you an error?
    I had a similar problem. Went to update from 4.1 to 4.2(.1) and every time it failed and left my iPhone stuck in recovery mode. Usually it failed with the error 1013 or 1004 - which according to Apple are hardware issues. THEY ARE NOT.
    There is a simple fix for this: If you are on a windows PC:
    goto:
    C:\windows\system32\drivers\ect\
    and if there is a file called: hosts.umbrella (or something very similar) then delete it.
    There should also be a file called: hosts (or something very similar) - Open that with your favorite text editor and remove any line which has: apple.com
    Then save the file, restart your PC and begin the update again, all should work fine.
