  • HT201210 CAN U APPLE TELL MW WHY I GET ERROR 1015 WHILE TRYING TO RESTORE MY IPHONE 3G

    PLEASE I NEED HELP
    Why I cant restore iphone 3g I always get error 1015??
    I need HELP RIGHT NOW

    Thx BUT =as-said, I've tried ALL the suggestions - including reading through the link you just suggested/posted (but just for good measure, i've just re-read thru it again!). I noticed from this list the first time i read thru it, that Error 23 didn't appear anywhere on this list of various (numerous!) error numbers. So/ergo, i still don't know (a) what exactly this error IS, (b) how to fix/get past/resolve it.
    I don't have an Apple store anywhere near me. Even if I did, I wonder whether they would (a) be willing to (b) able to fix it @ the so-called Genius bar? Any thoughts on this? (Obviously, if there were an Apple store nearby, I'd go there & try; as-is, it would entail an extra trip & an expense costing as much as buying a new iPhone!)

  • Error 1015 when trying to restore old iPhone on Mac iTunes

    Hello,
    Recently my mom's iPhone was freezing up. She says she tried to restore it by following some sleazy directions on the internet using her PC. The phone keeps acting up, so we connect it to my MacBook Pro, which we've never connected it to before. We run an update and click restore.
    We get a dialog box that says 'Error 1015' and now her phone permanently has a picture of a USB cord with an arrow pointing up towards the iTunes logo.
    I have been at this for two hours. I have been on every forum, downloaded every program, hit every wall from expired download links to programs that only work for PC.
    I am running Mac OS X 10.7.4
    I don't even know what generation this iPhone is. It seems ancient. I would go so far as to say this is probably one of the first iPhones released.
    If anyone could help me out whatsoever it would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.

    It sounds like your mom ended up jailbreaking her phone.  That's what an error 1015 means.
    There is no help to be had here. Sorry.
    Discussing jailbroken phones is forbidden by the terms of service.
    You'll need to look elsewhere for assistance or buy a new phone.

  • TS3694 What is the cause of "error 1015" when trying to restore and update an iPhone 3gs?

    What is the cause of "error 1015" when you're trying to restore and update an iphone 3gs? My iphone is currently in recovery mode and can not get out of it. All the information about my iphone shown on itunes is only marked as- N/A. How can I get my iphone out of recovery mode and get it to recover and update?
    Thank you,
    MacQuestioner3

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1015, which says:
    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.
    In other words, either your phone is jailbroken and you are sadly out of luck or you are trying to downgrade iOS.

  • I'm getting an error message when trying to restore my iPhone

    I'm trying to restore my iPhone 5 because it's been having a lot of problems. I had it connected to my Mac, and it says it's not apart of the iPhone developer program. I have no idea what that it. Please help me, how do I bypass it.

    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.

  • I get error 23 when trying to restore my iphone 4

    I tried to update my iPhone 4 to the latest software and it got stuck on the store screen...whenever i plug it into itunes it will go through the process up till it says verifying with apple. Then error 23 comes up and I am not able to do anything with my phone...this is urgent my phone has been broken for 2 days!
    thanks

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Error -48 when trying to restore my iphone

    I tried to update my iphone to software version 1.02 and was told my phone needed to be restored. I am tryint to update on my g4 sawtooth desktop which I normally dont sync my iphone on as my macbook is out for repairs at the moment. The g4 synced my information ok but when I tried to update I was told I would need restore my phone. After iTunes downloaded the restore image I get [+There was a problem downloading the iPhone software for the iPhone "iPhone". An unkown error occurred (-48). Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later.+] Obviously I am on the internet and my internet connection is fine. My desktop is connected to the airport base station with cat5 so I know its not a wireless connectivity problem. Anybody know of a way to resolve this?

    I took my iPhone to an apple store and had it restored. Now I get +iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "iPhone" because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000025).+ I can no longer get my iphone to sync with my computer for the life of me. I've restarted the phone, deleted the itunes preference lists, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and still get the same error. So what has been an almost perfectly beautiful experience up until now has turned into frustrating beyond description.

  • I received an unknown error (1) when trying to restore my iPhone 4. What do I do now?

    I tried to upgrade my iPhone 4 with iOS 6 through wifi but the phone locked up. I tried to restore it on my Mac but an unknown error (1) popped up and won't let me restore it. Any advice?

    Same problem here and I did everything Stefane did (except trying it on all those different computers ) and I'm still stuck. I keep trying to restore it hoping one time it will work. I'm lost without my phone!
