Not a good error:

Error 1 or -1

This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.



When t says that the device may need service that mean you have a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
