Error 4000 has several possible causes, but if you are using Windows with iTunes its a bug in the current version of iTunes. There are 2 workarounds:

  • Go to Settings/General/Software Update and update over the air
  • Temporarily disable your phone’s passcode before updating with Windows & iTunes
