Whilst trying to restore my 3GS the message 'unknown error 3194 occurred'. What does this mean?

It sounds like security software may be interferring. I would try to disable or uninstall any 3rd party security software installed.

Unknown error when updating iphone

I just tried installing the 7.0.3 update for my iPhone 4 and it came back with an unknown error message. Does this mean I have lost all of my pictures that I hadn't downloaded yet? I just synced my phone before I updated. It has some irreplaceable pictures I took of my kids.
Thanks.

Here:
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Note: The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your home folder, Option-click the Go menu.
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press theReturn key.
If you find the photos, then restore.
Or, go to iTunes>iTunes Preferences (drop down menu)>Backup> and check to see if the backup is the most recent one. If there is no back up, then the photos might be gone if they are also not on your computer from any other methods.

Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
Or any other suggestions please? Thanks

As pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

Usually occurs on devices that have either been jailbroken or attempts have been made to downgrade the iOS. You can try putting it in DFU mode to restore but you may not be able to fix it. If you phone has been jailbroken we can't support you in these forums as it is against the terms of use.
