Fix iTunes error 3014
When restoring an iOS device, iTunes must report the newly attached iPhone to Apple. If the contact is unsuccessful, iTunes cannot complete the restore.
- Update: Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed. Check iTunes for updates.
- Host file: Individual connections from certain servers are blocked in the host file. We will show you how to find and edit the host file in another practical tip. If you find a line with the keyword "Apple" there, delete the entire line.
- Firewall: Also make sure that your firewall does not block ports 60, 80 and 443 and the address "gs.apple.com".
- Time: The time on your computer should also be set correctly. If the times on your PC and the Apple server do not match, an error message follows.
- PC: If none of this helps, you should change the computer for recovery. The error only occurs when the process is completed.
