YouTube unknown error on iPad and iPhone
When I try to load on YouTube I get unknown error... How can I fix ts?
Do you have two routers by any chance? I had a VPN router (non-wireless) and another router (wireless to provide WiFi) connected to it. Well, I didn't need the VPN router anymore, so I removed the VPN router and changed the settings of the wireless router to use it as the only router at home. Now it's all OK. Looks like it had to do with the router, but I cannot tell exactly what caused it.
That being said, I could view YouTube with no problem for a long time with the same settings, so I don't know why it started all of a sudden.
All is good for now for now. Hope this helps. -
I got an iPad2 in the US just before moving to Taiwan. I never tried using the YouTube app before I got here, but I have been unable to watch any videos, in any format over the YouTube app or YouTube on the web, or even Vimeo. I am using a wireless router hooked into an Ethernet port, and my internet speed should be sufficient to stream videos. My laptop, an archaic Toshiba Satellite, doesn't have any problems viewing videos on the YouTube website, though I did notice a little lag in some longer videos. I have tried resetting the network DSL to google numbers, restoring factory settings to the network connections, and even downloaded the tagdiskHD app, but none of this seems to work. Can anyone out there address my issue? Thanks!
Same here with IPAD3 since a few days.
Changing the IP commited by the Router had not helped.
Why Apple does not inform us?
Waiting for a promt solution.

Hi
I just got my new iphone 6 and it was on ios 8 and everything was working fine i guess, i decided to download ios 8.0.2 as it was a brand new phone and i wanted the newest software on it to fix all the bugs just incase i had them.
i started the update process from the phone, and before the update was complete, i'd say 80% or so along the way, the phone goes into recovery mode displaying a red itunes logo and the cable on the screen.i tried all the suggestions out there and even googled and youtubed to try and find a solution with no luck. even did a few searches on this forum as this is the place i usually come to get most of my answers.
here is what i did in attempts to fix this.
tryed restoring through itunes on both recovery mode and DFU mode, with both ios 8.0 and ios 8.0.2 files.
let itunes re-download the update file just incase i had gotten a bad copy the first time around, tried with that
used 3 different computers, 2 macs and 1 pc
switched usb ports
unplugged all other usb devices
updated itunes and OS
always kept getting the mysterious "unknown error 56" msg searched all over for what that could mean with no luck. the process always seems to stop at the same place, and the second i unplug the phone, it jumps right back into recovery mode with the red itunes logo. if i were in a place that had a genious bar i would've gone there.
i need help fixing this problem please also i'd like to report this error to apple, really wanna do my part to help by reporting at the very least, so also if someone could tell me how to go about doing that, this is just sooo frustrating
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi , I am trying to update iPod that has iOS 2.2.1 to iOS 4.2 but I am getting the following error message, "the iPod could not be restored. An unknown error occured (-1)." I would appreciate if anyone could let me know what the problem is and if it is possible how to fix it? Thanks
Error -1
Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

IPhone 3gs restores to iOS 4.0 but won't restore to iOS 5 'Unknown Error 1'
I have an iPhone 3gs 32gb that accidentally went through the washing machine a couple of years ago. It was dead and rested peacefully in its box under the bed until a few months ago when I found it and thought - let's try turning it on. Low and behold the little begger worked. It was pretty beat up, so I ordered a new rear case for it and a few fiddly screws later it looked as good as new. It was making and recieving calls ok and recieving email fine - I thought great, I'll plug it into iTunes (10.6.3 on my Windows Vista laptop) and update it. This is when the problems started.
As soon as it tried to install iOS5 it got to the point where it says 'restoring iPhone firmware' and then boom, I get the error message 'Cannot be restored unknown error 1'. I tried installing in DFU mode... same thing happens. So I brought it to work and managed to install iOS4.0 via my work iMac PPC G5 running iTunes 9.2.1 - again, everything worked fine. Calls in and out, internet (both 3g and WiFi) gps, etc., all worked like a dream. So I moved to another iMac that was running the latest iTunes and all the latest updates for Mac OSX. Tried to install iOS5... same issue. 'Cannot be restored unknown error 1'. Arrggghhh!
There doesn't seem to be any hardware issues because the phone works great on iOS4, I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong when I try to update it. I've also tried downloading the IPSW file and doing CTRL/Option restore and pointing to the file, still with no joy.
Can anyone shed any light on the situation?Are you sure your replacement is an iPhone 3GS and not a 3? The iPhone 3 can't be updated beyone iOS 4.2.1. If your 3GS was using a newer iOS you won't be able to restore from the backup (the 3GS could be updated to the newes iOS, 5.1). You can check your model number (on the back of the phone) against this list to tell: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939.

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? ThanksAs 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.

my iphone 4 i bought was jailbroken to ios 6.0.1 redsn0w but i tried to restore the iphone and now it keeps saying connect to itunes but when i connect and try to restore an "unknown error" occurs and it will not boot up whatsoever. please help!
If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Having updated all my iOS devices to iOS 8.0 I now need to update xCode to match. I've tried several times, and on each occasion have received an "unknown error -50" message after getting about 500Mb. After this my internet connection appears to be fully occupied, and the only fix appears to be a reboot of both the iMac (2.5GHx Core i5, 4Gb RAMm OS X 10.9.5) and the router (Netgear DG834 v5, firmware 1.6.01.34) At first I thought that the error had not stopped the download, but after waiting for 30 minutes the connection was still unresponsive, though traffic was indicated as passing through but the router status page, and no additional content had been added to the download. Anyone else having a similar problem and different ideas as to fixing it?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -

I upgraded my iphone 5 to iOS 8 and now i get an itunes error message when I try to sync "this iphone cannot be synced. Unknown error. (-50). my icloud drive was stuck in an upgrade cycle, but i've stopped that and still get the error message.
I restarted itunes and tried again (based on a similar question/solution from 2012).
I don't get the error message anymore, but it's really sort of odd that after step one of sync, it looks as if sync stopped, and then all of a sudden you see step 4 of sync.
Also before the upgrade I had 7+ gigs of space free and after the upgrade I have 10 gigs free. seems like something is amiss, but it's not like I have anyway of determining that. -
my ipad mini is stuck in dfu mode trying to restore it with ios 7.0.2 it completes the bar(restoring ipad software) then it gives me the ipad could not be restores. an unknown error occured(14)
Are you using a valid Apple charger that came with the iPad?
Attempting to use a computer USB port, an incompatible charger, or attempting to charge via a wall socket that only receives power from a wall switch — can all lead to a low, or depleted battery condition. Has this iPad been wet, or dropped?
Verify all of the above, and correct. If the iPad still cannot hold a charge, consider taking to an Apple Store, or authorized service provider to evaluate it.
