    This usually occurs if your iTunes vesion is out of date, when your device has been hacked in attempt to downgrade the iOS or you used hacking software such as tinyumbrella that altered you computer hosts file.

  • TS3694 What is error 3004

    I am trying to restore my phone but keep getting this error code.  There is no index of what the error is.

    Just what it says in the article you attached:
    Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes can't contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
    Check that your security or firewall software isn't interfering with ports 80 or 443 or with the server gs.apple.com.
    Follow these steps to troubleshoot security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (go to "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
    Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you're using a proxy, try again without using a proxy.
    Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.

    Nevermind.  I didn't click far enough on the error posting to "find" it.

  • TS3694 what is error code 40?

    What does error code 40 mean ? What do I have to do to fix my phone? it will not restore and I keep getting error code 40

    Everything we know about it is in the knowledge base article you were reading when you posted the question.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error40
    Basically, it says that your antivirus or firewall is preventing iTunes from updating your phone. Try disabling them. It may also be necessary to delete the possibly corrupt .ipsw file. That's described under Advanced Steps in TS3694.

  • TS3694 What is error code 1667?

    What is error code 1667? 

    The TS3694 article you attached explains:
    Check USB connections
    Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.
    UPDATE - Sorry, 1667 is not included there.  Sorry.
