    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

  • HT4623 I keep getting error code 3194. How can I fix it?

    I started my update to iOS 6 wirelessly. All went well until I plugged my device (an iPhone 4) into my PC and opened iTunes. It prompted me to restore, and I accepted and was subsequently met with error code 3194 and a message saying that my iPhone couldn't be restored. I'd appreciate any help and insight that can be provided. Thanks!

    Sound like you're using Windows, am I correct?
    If so, sounds like a host file complication.
    Do a Google search, lots of solutions.

  • TS3694 trying to restore to factory default by keep gett error:code 3194 please help

    need to know hoe to restore to factory default ....keep getting error 3194

    Hi ratcat14!
    I have an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

  • Iphone 3gs in recovery; needs restore; but gets error code

    I have a new 3gs Iphone.
    I installed the newest version of ITUNES- 9.something.
    I start the SETUP IPHONE PROCESS.
    I am told that I need to upgrade to new Iphone OS.
    It takes 2 hours to download.
    I get an error
    I try to reconnect the iphone - GET MESSAGE that the phone is in recovery and needs to be restored.
    I start restore - i get an error. I start again. It shows all the green bars as completed but then freezes. I restart the computer.
    ITUNES tells me again that Iphone is in recovery and needs restore.
    I start restore. I get a message: The Iphone could not be restored. An unknown error occured (14).
    I don't know what to do.

    I have had this same problem, and you'll find out it will eventually work, but then after that your phone wont even start up and wont be able to connect to your computer! it's only allowing me to make Emergency Calls
    This new update has really peeved me, i need my phone for work.
    Try another computer, updating itunes, or different ports, restarting computer. Only thing i can think of sorry.

  • IPhone 4 new update. Keep getting error code 3194

    I recently bought a iPhone 4 from a friend and activated the phone today. It works fine but will not update to 5.0. I get an error code of 3194. So I read about that error code , installed the latest verion, and when i try to update i get the same error. I have reset the iphone and tried again. still same error code. My only other guess is that the phone was jailbroken, and if so can it be restored so i can make this new 5.0 update!?  If anyone has any suggestions please let me know! Thanks!
