Iphone could not be restored.  Device could not be found

Try making sure the iPhone is off, then try the following.
Hold down the sleep wake button until the Apple logo appears. While still holding down the sleep wake button, also hold down the home button. When the Apple logo disappears release the sleep wake button and continue holding down the home button for an additional 10 seconds. iTunes should recognize it again and restoring may work this time around.

  • TS3694 iphone could not be restored. an unknown error 1015 has occured.. what to do now??

    My iphone could not be restored. it shows that an unknown error has occured (1015). How to restore my iphone from a recovery mode?

    If you're getting an error 1015 then either it's jailbroken or the computer you're using was used to jailbreak or attempt to jailbreak an iOS device.
    If you are NOT getting error 1015, then you are NOT having the "exact same problem".

    Error 1015 might happen after making unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."

  • Is it possible that the thief already reset my iPhone that's why the device can't be found in find my iPhone?

    While I'm monitoring my iphone, I left it for a while. When I reload the page, "No Devices" is already written. I'm not really sure if it has been reset by the thief or i accidentally deleted it without knowing.

    When you iPhone is not connected to the Internet either through 3G/Wi-fi or because it is off then you cannot track it.
    If FindMyiPhone is enabled, even if the iPhone is off or not on wifi/3G, it will still show in FindMyiPhone under Devices, though it cannot be located.
    If it is not showing No Devices, FindMyiPhone is not enabled.
    If it does show in Devices and shows Offline, FindMyiPhone is enabled but it is off or not on wifi/3G.
    This is one way to remove the activation lock if you do not have the device. Delete it from FindMyiPhone in iCloud.

    You can also take a look at this information from this support document: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    This device is not eligible for the requested build (Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194")
    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. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
    Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your 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.
    Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

    This means that either your firewall/antivirus is blocking access to Apple's servers, or you have used your computer to jailbreak an iDevice in the past. The link above tells you how to resolve this issue.

            If you can help me, a few nudges in the right direction would be very well recieved

    Ok,
           The Phone is now restoring, looked everywhere for an answer, tried the holding down of the home/standby
            buttons, started the recovery ,extracted the software, then it would say "the  iphone iphone could not be                restored .The device could not be found" done this about 4 times
           The solution!!!  gave it to a friend who put it on his PC (I have an Imac) and he reset it, then plugged back            into Mac and it restored it back to the last restore
           one point i did notice you have to take your pin off, it said something like insert pin free sim

    This is normally a hardware failure but it can also occur if the phone has been jailbroken or the iOS version rolled back or you are using a computer that was used with a jailbroken device. Try another computer.
