If you see error 9, 4005, 4013, or 4014 when you restore your iOS device

When you try to update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you might see one of these messages in iTunes.

If your iOS device disconnects during the update or restore or if iTunes couldn't tell the device to restore, you might see one of these messages:

• The iPhone [device name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).
• The iPhone [device name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4005).
• The iPhone [device name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4013).

4. Try to restore your device using another USB cable.
5. Try to restore your device on another computer.
