TS3694 Error Code 40 problem.

The other day my dad's iPhone 5s went into recovery mode for some strange reason and every time I try to take it out of recovery mode a error code pops up (error code 40) and I have no idea how to fix it. PLEASE HELP!!

What happens when you tried steps listed in the Support Doc. where you posted you query ?

    error code 3194 when trying to restore my ipad?

    Hey bfcjamie,
    Thanks for the question. Error 3194 usually occurs when iTunes is unable to communicate with the update-and-restore server. The following articles may help to resolve your issue:
    iOS: Restore error 3194 or 'This device isn't eligible for the requested build'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4451
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com
    Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
    1. Install the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Check security software and ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow these steps for assistance with security software.
    3. Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. Follow the advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting steps to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information."
    4. Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    5. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Thanks,

  • TS3694 error code 6?

    I receieved an error code (6) as I was updating to IOS 7.. what do I do?

    Hey oysta81,
    Thanks for the question. The following article outlines error 6:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Errors related to third-party security software
    Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 1000, 9006
    1. Follow the steps to troubleshoot security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    2. There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    3. Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    4. Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or phobos.apple.com isn't blocked by a firewall or other Internet security setting.
    5. Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under "Advanced steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)" below for file locations.
    6. Restore your device while connected to a different network.
    7. Restore using a different computer.
    Thanks,
