See Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors and Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support.


Check for hardware issues

Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
