IPhone :: 3GS Could Not Be Restored - Unknown Error Occurred (-1)
May 2, 2012
I am trying to restore an 3gs Iphone with the latest OS and all I keep getting is: The Iphone "Iphone" could not be restored. A unknown error occured (-1). The Iphone has not had Jailbreak so its not that.
Tried restoring iPhone after latest update. Error Message read: "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1)." I have my iPhone for just 2 month and never tried to jailbreak. The error occurred while attempting to instal Apple's software on iTunes.
what does 'the iPhone could not be restored. an unknown error occurred (-1)' mean? what do I do? i cannot restore my phone. this message always comes out.
I can't restore or update my phone... When I try to restore or update, I get the error "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9)". I've seen many people with this issue, but I have yet to find a fix.
Info: iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1.1, Trying to update from 8.1 to 8.1.1
While upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.2 something went wrong and came up with the message "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred [1015]" Now it will not start at all. It just stays on screen with USB and the iTune picture. What can I do to get it going again. I only tried to upgrade because I was prompted to up-grade and now I am helpless. I did a backup before starting the upgrade. The error message did not tell what to do next.
My iPhone 3GS 16gb, is stuck in restore mode, downloaded and tried to do a restore multiple times. Keep getting an error The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. Unknown error occured (-1). Cannot get it out of restore mode, keeps rebooting!I have tried to hold the "home" and "power" button to reboot I have tried powering it off I have tried, to unplug the cable, hold the "home" button and then plug it in.Can't check the SN or warranty, cause it is stuck in restore mode.Is the hard drive gone? Should there be something replaced.
My iphone won't restore and I keep getting this message "the iphone "iphone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (-1)". I have tried the troubleshooting and updated all programs. Still won't work. Any recommendations?
I'm using a 3GS on 3.1.2, jailbroken with Blacksn0w originally. I'm using an AT&T Pick Your Plan SIM (like I always have)
I'm trying to update to 4.0 with jailbreak using a custom cooked ipsw file with Snowbreeze 1.6.1 and keep getting error "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (2)."
I've tried both DFU mode AND Recovery mode. I also remembered to remove Saurik's server ip in the hosts file. I've tried uninstalling / reinstalling iTunes and rebooting. I even removed WiFi Sync software thinking that might have affected it somehow. I've uninstalled my vs/firewall software. NOTHING seems to work.
everytime i try downloading something from app store on my iphone it wont download, it keeps saying 'an unknown error has occurred' i dont know what to do. iv tried restarting my phone.
I tried updating my iphone to the newest software version today, it successfully loaded on itunes but when I plugged in my iphone to sync it, itunes told me that in order to update it I needed to restore my iphone, it is backed up so I said okay. My phone got through most of the process but then suddenly I got a message on itunes saying "The iphone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1)." "It has done this countless times
