IPhone 4 :: Cannot Be Restored - Error 2008 When Connected To ITunes
Jul 2, 2014
I have a black screen on my iPhone 4 saying iTunes with the usb picture underneath. Have connected it to macbook and opened iTunes.  It recommends I restore and update which I have tried. I then get a message saying it cannot be restored. error 2008. Followed all the troubleshooting guide on apple website - latest update for iTunes, turning computer off, no other devices connected etc and have searched the web to find out what this error is but cannot find anything about error 2008.

my iPhone 4S won't be restored with iTunes, giving error 4013. I think I tried everything: DFU mode, another cable, another computer, reinstalling itunes...nothing works. The Phone suddenly stopped working completely yesterdag showing the apple logo for a few minutes, turning black. showing the logo, turning black et cetera. Just after the WiFi finally ended to be greyed out....Now I only see the 'connect to iTunes' picture.

got an iPhone 4 which I'm trying to set up so it's childproof.. now I can set up good restrictions etc and turn off find my iphone so it can't be restored to factory settings remotely.. but if they plug it into itunes they can just reset it and overwrite all my fancy settings?Â
Is there any setting I can use in itunes or on the iPhone itself to prevent that?

So I have a 3GS that had a broken screen. I paid my telco to have it replaced with a refurbished handset.The replacement was plugged into a Windows PC with iTunes & unbricked. No problems there.It didn't get used for about 3 months & when I tried to charge it, it was dead! Meanwhile, the 90 days warranty on the handset has lapsed & I can't get it replaced or anything without paying again.I have tried restoring the handset many times & I get different error messages depending on how I do it.If I just plug it into my PC (running Windows Vista) & do a normal restore in iTunes the error message is (-1).If I put it in DFU mode & then do a restore in iTunes I get error 1602.If I use iREB to put in DFU mode & then restore using a downloaded ipsw file I get error 3194.I have tried doing the above on two PC's running Windows Vista & still always getting errors.I am using the latest version of iTunes (updated yesterday - 30th March 2012)I am not sure what OS is on the handset. The latest thing to happen is that when it gets to "Restoring iPhone firmware..." it seems to just hang at the very last bit. Then after a long time just left sitting there plugged in, it eventually comes up with error 1002.

So the other day, I had plugged my roughly 2 year old iPhone 3GS into my macbook pro to charge, when it suddenly had a strange crash and said it needed to be restored. It took several hours to finally restore after many -1 errors. Now however, it cannot start syncing so I cant go back to the way my iphone was before the restore. Also, I can't use wifi or iMessage - it says that my username or password must have changed when it hasn't at all, and the wifi option is just gray, I cant even open it in settings. Nothing seems to be working, except basic texting and calling.

I recently restored my iPhone4 on my Mac computer and I'm absolutely freaking out because my iTunes will not locate the correct backup (even when I left click on the iPhone icon in iTunes tool bar and select "Restore from Backup"). However, I can locate the file on my computer from the Library/ApplicationSupport/MobileSync/Backup. I've tried dragging it a bunch of different places/renaming the file to get it to show up in iTunes but nothing's working I saw that before I completed the most recent backup, it said the date before that was around mid-Jan 2012. The only backup file my iTunes can find is from 2010! My phone is not jail broken but if that's what it would take to get all of my data back.... I'm basically deserate.
