Q: Error 4005 fix for Windows 7

If your iPhone is stuck in Recovery Mode, this fix should restore your iPhone to the factory settings, but a backup should have been created automatically when the OS was updated so you will have the option to restore from backup once the repair is made.

 

If iTunes is open, exit iTunes

Disconnect iPhone from computer USB

Click Start menu on desktop

Go to Control Panel

Go to Programs

Go to Programs and Features

Select Apple Mobile Device Support and click repair

Connect iPhone to computer USB (device should install automatically)

Open iTunes

When prompted, click restore iPhone

OS should install now and restore factory settings

 

iPhone will automatically restart when OS is successfully installed, and you will have the option to setup as new or restore from backup.  If you wish to keep your files and settings, click restore from backup and wait until your iPhone is fully synced.  If there are any discrepancies in your contacts or whatever, you will have the option to choose the correct contact to sync now or sync later.  Once your iPhone is fully synced, follow the prompts on the iPhone and that's it!  Now the next step will be figuring out how to use your iPhone with the fancy new OS!

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.2

    Ok... I have just successfully restored my sons iPhone 5c

     

    what didn't work for me;

     

    - updating iTunes.

    - updating drivers.

    - I tried four different cables.

    - 4 different pcs.

    - different USB ports.

    - repairing Apple Mobile Device Support.

     

    iTunes would just hang and say... waiting for response from iPhone (the Apple Mobile Device Support driver would have disappeared at this point in device manager)

     

    what did work (for me);

     

    After about 14 hours of messing around I went and purchased a USB 3.0 PCI card (from a well known high street pc store)

    I installed it, added current drivers from manufacturers website, deleted all iTunes components, and reinstalled iTunes

    Restarted pc, plugged in iPhone, started iTunes.

    Worked first time no problems.

     

    the main difference was... when the waiting for iPhone came up before, the  Apple Mobile Device Support was present this time and the restore processed as it should of with previous attempts

     

    After phoning apple and being told it could of cost me up to £206 to repair I am very happy.

    Phone support and live chat support were next to useless (sorry guys).

    I was seriously looking at replacing components! I have read of people replacing batteries and logic boards with this problem!

     

    I am very happy its working!

     

    N.B

     

    IMO THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH DRIVERS IN MOST CASES, FROM WHAT I CAN GATHER. I TRIED GETTING CURRENT DRIVERS FOR MY INSTALLED USB CARDS AND THEY FAILED.

     

    If you are going to buy a USB 3 PCI card, make sure you get one with good driver support, the one I got was £10.

    The USB card will need powering via a 4 pin Molex (in my case) or SATA

    I had to buy a 4 pin Molex to SATA converter as I only have SATA in my pc and the card was 4 pin Molex, but this worked fine regardless.

     

    If you have the 4005 error and are reading this i hope it helps (and you don't lose as many hour as I did)

    My ipod touch suddenly died and cannot be turn on. Then, I put it on the boot loop to restore but it failed. I also tried to restore by put it on the DFU Mode but then again it failed. The pop up message showed up by the end of the process is this --> The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (4005).

     

    P.S. I already tried your procedure but the same message still pop out

     

    P.S.S. PLEASE HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLP!!!
