My iPhone 4s won't restore.

2012-04-30 22:53:07My iPhone 4s won't restore. Reply Topic

My iPhone showed a USB cord connecting to iTunes.  Would not start otherwise.  When I connected it to iTunes, it said it was in "restore mode" and needed to be restored.

 

I have tried restoring it 3 times now, and each time it shows a red error message that it cannot be restored.  It says there is an "unknown error (1)". Is this an error code number?  If it is, it is not in the error codes list to search for how to fix it.

 

Anyone have any ideas on how to help me?

 

Thank you!

Error (1): Try updating your iTunes. You may wish to reboot your computer, and check your security if applicable. I get my error postings from here.

I think I tried that.  I followed the instructions for troubleshooting.  My iTunes is up to date.  So is my Mac OS.  Then I rebooted the computer.  Not sure how to check my security.  I will look into that, and I will also check your link to error postings.

 

Thanks

I followed your link, and if it is indeed an Error 1, then this is what that link says:

 

Error 1You are attempting to downgrade an iPhone from iOS 5 to iOS 4.x. To resolve, use either custom firmware created by PwnageTool/sn0wbreeze or use notcom's FixRecovery utility available on his site.On an iPhone 4 downgrading from iOS 5, use the option in TinyUmbrella to allow a baseband "upgrade" to bypass the error and go back to basband 4.10.1.Unable to downgrade. Try changing the USB port (the back one of chassis is better) and restart computer.The installed version of iTunes may also be too old. Update iTunes.You are trying to downgrade an iPhone 4 to an earlier version of iOS 5, using redsn0w. To resolve, stitch your blobs to a "No_BB" ipsw of the firmware you are trying to downgrade to.

 

I don't think I am trying to downgrade the iOS.  Certainly not with any intent.
