We fix errors 3002 and 3194
Error 3194 in iTunes when restoring firmware occurs when there are certain problems that prevent the device from accessing the gs.apple.com server. Among the most common causes of this problem, it is worth noting the modified Hosts file, as well as the complete absence of previously saved SHSH, which are required for downgrading. Also, do not rule out the situation that Apple’s servers are simply overloaded at the moment, so try again after a certain time, and it’s quite possible that you will not need any additional manipulations to fix the problem.
What to do if error 6 or 10 appears?
If you are trying to install custom firmware with boot recovery logos on your phone that are different from the standard ones, then you may experience such problems during installation. iTunes throws an error with this code often when trying this action. To get rid of the problem, you will have to install the new firmware on your gadget, using another custom firmware that does not have custom boot-recovery logos, or try to use that custom firmware that has already been tested during operation on your device.
Possible 10xx errors and their elimination
Such a problem may occur if you are trying to flash on an outdated version of the firmware compared to the one you are currently using. Or if you are trying to upgrade to a modem of a version that does not match your gadget, an update error may appear. iTunes often issues such codes, but eliminating them is not so difficult.

Error 54 and its correction
Error 54 occurs if you try to copy an application to your gadget from another device. Most often, this problem occurs if you try to copy any hacked applications or copy licensed applications to a computer that has not been previously authorized.
To fix, you will initially need to log in to your PC in the iTunes Store. The error is fixed as follows: the “Shop” tab opens, and then the “Authorize computer” item is selected.
If this option could not help you, then in this case you will need to go to the settings, go to the "Synchronization" section, then reset the history and completely delete the folder located at C: // Documents and Settings / All Users / Application Data / Apple Computer / iTunes / SC Info. After this is done, you will need to re-authorize your own computer.
The third option is to open the folder with the music library, and after that move the “Music” folder to some other place that is convenient for you. Now you can synchronize your device with iTunes, and then re-return the folder to its place and re-synchronize.
The latter option is the most difficult, but it is quite effective and allows you to eliminate this error in almost all cases. The use of this method is recommended exclusively for advanced users who are able to work with similar equipment.
Initially, you will need to open Cydia, and then download SwapTunes from there. This tweak will allow you to synchronize the device simultaneously with several media libraries. Now launch the downloaded SwapTunes, then open iFile and go to the following address: var / mobile / media. Here you will need to find a folder called iTunes_Control2, and then remove the number 2 from the name of this folder. The folder itself should be deleted only after you create a new one. After all these procedures, you can safely remove SwapTunes completely, and then re-synchronize the gadget with iTunes and continue to download the utilities you are interested in.

But if you still have it, then in this case the only thing you can do is just use some other firmware that is relevant for your device.
Error code 10. What to do?

Solving the problem with error 23
Its cause is the occurrence of various problems associated with the hardware component of your device. Simply determine the cause of this error if your gadget stops determining the Mac address or IMEI. The only solution in this situation is a trip to a service center to qualified specialists, since there is no independent solution to this problem. It is recommended to go to trusted service centers, since not everyone can and can solve this problem.
Cause of error 26 and its elimination
The reason for this error is that NOR is not suitable for the version of firmware you are using. To solve this problem, you can simply download some other firmware file from a source you have previously verified.
Simple mistakes 27 and 29
This problem is relevant only for older versions of iTunes (from 8 to 9.1) and at the same time occurs exclusively in the Windows operating system. To eliminate it, it will be quite enough to simply update the program to the latest version, which is relevant today.
Error 28. Why does it appear and how to fix it?
Among all the existing causes of this problem, almost always a malfunction is that the 30-pin connector of your gadget does not work correctly. Again, the solution is to go exclusively to the service center, since this is a hardware malfunction, and it’s highly discouraged to carry out such procedures, even the simplest ones.
Code 35. We solve the problem
This error often occurs when the device is running on Mac OS X and is due to the fact that the user has incorrect access rights to the folder in which the iTunes library is located. To fix the error, you will need to run the “Terminal” program, log into your account, and then enter the code sudo chmod -R 700 Users [username] Music iTunes iTunes Media.
Code 37. Causes and solutions
The reason for this error is most often the use of custom firmware, since quite often it happens that LLB, which is used in another gadget, can be used in the custom. So that you no longer have this error, you will need to create custom firmware yourself, in which the correct LLB will be used.
Error Code 39
The appearance of such an error often happens after the system finds some problems with the photo album or with the access of the device to the Internet. To fix it, try to create a completely new photo album, and also update your installed iTunes to the version that is current today. If even this did not help you, then in this case it is likely that the problem is with the antiviruses or firewalls you are using, so try turning them off as well.
1008, or problems with Apple ID
The reason for error 1008 is that iTunes cannot recognize certain characters that were entered in the Apple ID. It often appears due to the fact that the encoding of the system was incorrectly performed. To troubleshoot, you need to open the “Shop” tab, and then “View my account”. In the event that in the window that appears the data is entered and displayed correctly, you need to click "Exit". Now you will need to switch the encoding of your system to Win5112 or UTF8, after which you can again log into your account.
1015 and firmware update
Most often, the appearance of this problem is a consequence of the fact that the gadget is being flashed to the old version. Do not forget that for downgrades you must necessarily use the SHSH saved in advance, and if you do not save them, you can not even think about downgrade.
However, this error is often the result of blocking servers by the Apple system, and to fix it, you will need to completely erase all data about Apple servers from the host file.
47 - unsolved mystery
The most mysterious is iTunes error 47. And experts are working on this problem. Quite often, the Windows operating system itself issues this code, and although it seems that this is iTunes error 47, in reality the operating system cannot use this device, since it was prepared for safe disconnection, but it was not turned off from the computer . To eliminate this malfunction in this situation, it is quite enough to simply remove the device from the slot, and then insert it back.
It is worth noting the fact that even for a developer this is an unknown error in iTunes. And to this day, its normal description has not appeared on the official website. If it is a Windows operating system error, then you can just see it, after which the window of the active program will fly out. In addition, some users have experienced situations where an unknown iTunes error occurred while trying to use a specific device.
Knowing all of the above problems, as well as possible causes and solutions, you can freely use iTunes at any time convenient for you. Every user may experience such errors from time to time, so it’s better to prepare in advance for their appearance and know how to fix them quickly.
