TS3694 error 3194 in itunes when trying to restore iphone?

My iPhone 4S is stuck in recovery mode which occured whilst I was trying to update it today.  iTunes no longer recognises the phone and only says that it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored before it can be used with iTunes...so having found that I had definitely backed up the phone today prior to it going into recovery mode, I decided to go ahead with the factory restore and would then safely be able to restore it from backup, but, as I went to do the restore, it came up with an error message saying, 'iPhone could not be restored, unknown error occured (3194)'. 
Has anyoe got any tips or advice as to what I hould do next???  Thanks in advance :-)

So after much searching on google, I have managed to fix the problem...
See this link if you require help with the same thing, it has worked for me anyway

Once I did this, I was able to restore my iPhone from the backup I did yesterday, everything is back on my phone exactly as it was yesterday...happy days!!!!!

  • What does error code 1015 mean , when trying to restore iPhone mean?

    I'm having trouble restoring my iPhone 3G . I accidentally did a full upgrade on a app , I think it was cydia. It totally messed my phone up. Now when I try to restore it on iTunes it shows a 1015 error code . Does anyone know how to fix it?

    I am getting error message when trying to restore iphone 3gs

    If this is your phone, it appears that you had either loaded the iOS 7 beta on it and it is now expired or you are not trying to restore the phone correctly. Did you attempt to update using something other than the standard procedure in iTunes? You cannot install a custom iOS file.

    My Ipod has an error code of 1604 when trying to restore.  I have followed all recommended instructions...any ideas.??

    If you did all of this
    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.
    make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    You saved my life. I tried everything, even manipulating the host file on your PC, but still failed with the restore. Tried on 3 different PCs, at least 20 times, all in vein.
    Then, as u suggested I turned off the firewall, and it immediately solved my problem,
    Now my iPad has been restored, thanks to you. I was about to take it to the service to have it repaired, but now I don't need it.
    Thank you again.

  • TS3694 Keep getting a 1015 error when trying to restore Iphone 3g

    Hi,  I have a problem with my old Iphone 3G, I upgraded to a Iphone 4 ages ago and just kept my old phone in a drawer, now I want to give it to my niece, so decided to plug into Itunes to reset it ready for her, it said it needed to update and download, it did that, but failed and said to restore it, but I keep getting 1015 error when it goes through the restore.
    Any ideas and options other than going to Genious Bar ?

    error usually means you have a jailbroken or a modified iphone.

  • HT201210 I have got error number 11 on itunes when trying to restore my iphone 3gs, please help.

    Please help, I am trying to restore my iphone 3gs, but i keep getting errors like 11 which is not listed in this site and i alos get error 1 and -1. please help.

    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!
