  • An unknown error (2003) when restore iPod Touch

    downloaded the latest version of iTunes and tried to restore my iPod touch to iTunes, but it complains that it will have an unknown error (2003). I tried to restore my iPod about 20 times, but the same error comes every time. Then I plug the iPod off my computer and I plugged it in again. But then iTunes was complaining to me that the iPod that I plugged in is on a restore mode. I did everything by correcting the bug and am looking for the whole night Apple.com to answer this problem. I did the thing with Notepad, but it did not help at all. I'm looking for all the troubleshooting and I checked my computer but it did not help at all. I downloaded iTunes again but it did not help. What can I do? When my iPod is in a restore mode, I can not put music on, and I can not even open my iPod. The display shows only the cable and iTunes symbol. Please, help me.

    Does nobody have the answer to this question? Was somply tryin to update my ipod touch and it got all the way to the end and saod it couldnt update, then went in to "recovery mode" and needed to restored. Restoring will not work either, (error 2003) And now I too have an ipod that will not do anything! I dont care if it wont update, I just want it back the way it was before I plugged it in and tried to update it. Someone must have the answer to this!

  • Error 3036 - software for ipod touch

    I cannot download the new update for my ipod touch. I click download but it only brings me to the itunes store. When i go to downloads, there are 52 downloads available but when i click it is comes up, "Unable to check for available downloads. An unknown error occured (3036)." How do I fix this and how do i update my ipod?

    Your ipod cannot update to the newest ios,
    They have done this so people will have to buy new devices to play the newest games.
    If you want to play the newest games you have the buy an ipod 4g or 5g.
    Your ipod cannot run higher than ios 4.2.1
    The newest ios is ios 6.2.1
    But this is not available for your ipod 2g

  • Is there an error 28 fix for ipod touch 4th generation restoring?

    is there a fix for error 28

    Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

  • What do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?

    Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
    “SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
    Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
    “Hi all,
    I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
    I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
    I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
    Can anyone help? Please?!
    Thank you!!!
    P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
    Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!

    P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution.

  • I have forgotten my password for iPod Touch 4G and it is now disabled. I tried connecting to iTunes but i haven't synced before and i need to enter the password before i can back it up so i can restore it. I don't want to lose pictures so please help!

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how it works
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    What did the error message say?
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
