TS3694 what's error 6?

I just spent 45 minutes "upgrading" to iOS 7.02 on my 4s. At about 95% of the way through I got an error 6. There is no info on Apples help pages about this.
The phone is connected via usb to my MBP and is showing the apple and the progress bar frozen at 98%. What should I do?

I ended up holding down the hold and power/lock button and forced a restart. This put into recovery mode. The OS reinstalled and I restored from a backup. Another 30 minutes. Apps restoring now.

  • 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.

    Are you trying to downgrade your iPhone?
    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed.   Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
    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.
    (from iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting)
    If not, try to move or delete the IPSW file and let iTunes download it again.
    Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
    iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your device. If those  files  are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file  to a different directory. This will cause  iTunes to  download a new copy of the IPSW.    When a restore issue is specific to a  user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user  will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new  user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:
    Mac OS X
    iPhone
    ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
    iPad
    ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates
    iPod touch

  • 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.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

    Are your event clips in h.264? If so, you can solve this by Right clicking on your Event Name and choose "Optimize Media". You can choose Full for 1080P or Large for 960P according to your preference.
    After you have optimized your Event, you should be able to Share with no problem.

  • TS3694 what is error 29

    can you tell me what is error 29

    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    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.

    Therer are a number of situations that can result in error 2003 (and this error is not listed in Apple's error doc).  It would help if you told us what you were doing (which app or activity) when the error shows up.
    Here's one reply from an earlier post:
