With various processes occurring in Apple devices, errors may occur that prevent the normal operation of the system. We are talking about the processes of synchronization, updating and recovery - those actions that the user performs more often than others. Some errors are very easy to fix, for example, by a simple reboot, while others are eradicated solely through repair.
Error 39 is familiar to almost every iPhone user. It usually occurs when a gadget interacts with the aytyuns utility. How do I remedy the situation if the error message 39 appears on the display? This article provides several reliable ways to solve this problem.
Before proceeding to a detailed examination of the essence of error 39, we will consider what types of errors can occur when executing various processes through aytyuns. These are errors like:
- problems with the Internet (error 17, 3013, 3194 and many others); arising when it is impossible to connect a PC or laptop to Apple servers.
- difficulties with configuring security programs, such as antiviruses and others (error 2.4, 9006, etc.);
- inability to connect a mobile gadget through USB cable to a PC or laptop (error 1601, 2001 and others).
- difficulties caused by malfunctions in the software part of the device, with an iPhone modem, battery, etc. (error 1, 23, 35 and many others).
Above were listed the main groups of errors that occur when an iPhone user works with the Internet and the aytyuns utility, or rather, when he performs operations to update or restore the operating system of the device. There are many more such errors in total, but some are common, others are extremely rare. Error 39 belongs to one of the most common errors. The ways to eliminate it will be discussed in detail below. And now - about the standard approach to getting rid of absolutely any mistake.
One-Stop Way to Get Rid of Error in iTunes
As practice shows, most users cope with system failures of the iPhone on their own, without contacting service centers for the repair of mobile gadgets from Apple. Since more often than others there are difficulties in the interaction of the device with the aytyuns utility, you should dwell on the method of solving them in more detail. There is a unified algorithm of actions that allows you to eliminate, if not all, then many problems (including, sometimes, error 39).
Stages of error elimination according to a single algorithm:
- On a PC or laptop, the user must remove all utilities and programs that may interfere with the connection between iTunes and Apple servers.
- During the procedure, you must turn off all security programs.
- Connect iPhone to PC or laptop using USB cable.
- Using anti-installers, completely remove aytyuns from your PC, and then re-download and install the latest version of this utility.
- Restore or update an iPhone on another device (PC or laptop).
If the user does everything correctly, and this is not at all difficult, because the algorithm of actions described above is quite clear and understandable to everyone, the problem should be eliminated. But sometimes this method does not help. This often happens with error 39. How can I fix it? See below for details.
Error 39 when updating iPhone 5S
When exactly does this error occur? Most often, when syncing or when restoring an iPhone using aytyuns. During the update of the operating system, it may also appear. It can also be called damaged files when the system detects them during synchronization with aytyuns. The problem can occur on device version 4, iPhone 4s, iPhone 6 and other models of smartphones from Apple.
Error syncing with iTunes: solution to the problem
During synchronization, the aytyuns utility generates folders that need to be deleted. These are folders such as iPad photo cache and Apple TV photo cache. The named folders store pictures optimized for the user's iPhone.
To delete the Photo Cache folder on Mac, you need to follow these steps:
- In the Finder section, select Go and then Home
- Go to Pictures, find there a folder that has a connection with an iPhone.
- Go to the device.
- Next, find folders like iPad photo cache and Apple TV photo cache and move them to the trash.
- You do not need to delete or modify any other files.
- Connect the iPhone to a PC or laptop and try to synchronize the device with aytyuns.
Attention! By deleting the named folders, the user photos stored in the iPhone will not be lost. The cache folders will be restored the next time the aytyuns is connected to the iPhone.
To delete the photo cache folder on Windows you need:
- Press the Windows key on a PC or laptop.
- Select the magnifying glass icon or enter the search.
- Enter "iPad photo cache" or "Apple TV photo cache" in English letters, click on search.
- The system will carry out a search, after which you need to select the required folders and drag them to the trash.
- Again, you do not need to delete any other file or folder, nor do you need to change them, as this can disrupt the operation of the entire system.
- Try to connect an iPhone to a PC or laptop and synchronize with aytyuns.
Error 39 and other reasons for its appearance
The essence of the problem may lie in the date and time settings, so they need to be carefully checked.
In order to check these settings, you need to perform such actions as:
- In the search, find the cpl file.
- Press the button to change the time zone, select the desired zone.
- Confirm your action by pressing the corresponding button.
- Enter the section for changing the date and time.
- Set correct time and date values.
- Confirm your decision.
If previous way did not help, perhaps you should make an aytyuns exception in the firewall. It happens that this program prevents aytyuns from connecting to Apple's servers. To solve the problem and fix the error in this situation, you need to include aytyuns in the whitelist of the Windows firewall.
Instructions how to do it
- Log in to the control panel and select all of its elements, go to the firewall section, and then to the allowed programs.
- Select aytyuns in the list of programs and applications that opens.
- Click on "Okay".
You can also try to synchronize all the elements, the essence of which is the subsequent resynchronization. To carry out the procedure you need:
- Connect iPhone to PC or laptop.
- Choose your gadget, go to the photos section.
- Remove all elements from thumbnail images.
- Confirm their deletion.
- Re-sync.
Perhaps a number of programs are in conflict with each other and this caused error 39? And here is the solution. You need to run any utility for virtualization and detect such conflicts in order to eliminate them further.
Update aytyuns and get rid of error 39
To keep the error to a minimum, you need to install the latest version of the aytyuns utility on your PC. To do this, the user must press the "Alt" key and select help in the menu bar that appears, and then check for updates.
If a new version of the aytyuns utility has already been released, you need to install it on your PC, through which you usually interact with the iPhone.
If none of the above methods helped to resolve error 39, another simple method can help - connecting the device to a different USB port. The fact is that due to a malfunction of the port or damage to the cable, such problems can arise.
IPhone recovery
This process can also help in eliminating error 39. To do this, you need to reset all settings to factory settings, in which case all user data and files will be irretrievably erased. Therefore, you need to regularly take care of backups.
To carry out the procedure for restoring the device with iOS, need to:
- Connect a mobile gadget to a PC or laptop via a USB CABLE.
- Select your iPhone from the list of devices that appear on the screen.
- Press the restore button.
- Wait until the end of the process, which may take several minutes.
The device will automatically recover the system, after completing the procedure, it will reboot and the problem will be repaired.
Other errors in the iPhone 5S
An iPhone 5S user should keep in mind that, having quickly resolved the problem with error 39, he is not immune from other malfunctions with the device. In order to cope with the task on your own, saving a lot of money, you need to have a general idea of what to do in a given situation. The following describes other most common errors that sometimes occur when Apple devices are working.
Difficulty connecting to the Internet
Are caused by the current download software the aytyuns utility. In any case, the user must wait for the process to complete and then try to connect to the network again.
If the error occurs again, it means that the PC or laptop was unable to connect to the Apple servers or to the iPhone. In such a situation, the user must:
- check for a connection between the aytyuns utility and the apple update servers;
- see if extraneous PC security software is interfering with the successful connection of the iPhone to the network.
Problems connecting with a USB cable
When this kind of problem appears, errors 4005, 4013 or 4014 pop up. Apple offers the following steps to fix them:
- Connect the gadget to a PC or laptop using the supplied cable (or another original USB cable).
- : You need to plug the cable into a different USB port, but not on the keyboard.
- Connect the device to another PC or laptop.
- The problem should be solved, if this does not happen, you need to check the health of the hardware, the operation of other programs (especially antiviruses), contact the Apple customer support department directly.
If the software is "to blame" ...
This is signaled by errors 53, 27, 1014 and many others. And again, the manufacturer himself offers instructions on how to eliminate them.
To troubleshoot software problems, you need to complete steps such as:
- Reopening the aytyuns program (in a situation where it was open, you need to close it, and then restart it).
- Check that the utility installed on the PC is newest version... If this is not the case, you need to update the version to the most recent one.
- See if security programs are interfering with the normal operation of your iPhone.
- Check the health of a USB cable, Internet network, PC or laptop.
- Make another 1-2 attempts to restore the system.
If none of the above methods helped fix the problems with software equipment it is possible that there are many programs installed on the computer, the drivers of which are outdated and in need of an urgent update. The user will have to carry out painstaking work to identify such programs. But if everything turns out to be in order, there will be only one thing left - contacting the Apple customer support department.
How to check if the software is out of date
Old versions of programs, or, even worse, modified programs that have become such as a result of hacking, can cause many errors in the operation of the iPhone 5S or other versions of the gadget. The so-called unauthorized modifications of iOS are very common causes of malfunctioning of smartphones from Apple. Simply put, it is a firmware hack carried out by hackers to gain access to user data.
But this kind of problem is not always serious and requires expensive repair or replacement of the gadget. For example, when the owner of the device tries to install an earlier version of iOS on the device (downgrade) than he had before, an error will always pop up. The solution in this situation is simple: you need to update the aytyuns utility to the latest version, and then start the recovery process. The iPhone will be downloaded and installed latest version operating system, and the device will work without interruption.
Owners of Apple devices use iTunes for viewing, downloading media content, updating, restoring firmware, and other purposes. The richness of functionality has made the service an almost indispensable tool for working with iPhones and other "apples". But despite high quality Apple products, users often encounter errors when operating the program. Problems can arise both when launching an application, synchronizing with a computer, or already in the process of working on an update or recovery. One of the most common iTunes crashes when updating firmware or restoring is error 9006. It occurs when the connection to Apple servers fails, and this may be due to various reasons. It is not difficult to troubleshoot the problem and is within the power of a user who does not have special skills, but since the culprit of the problem is unknown, you will have to try several methods that can help in solving.
Fixing error 9006 in iTunes.
Failure with code 9006 assumes that the firmware cannot be loaded and does not apply to complex malfunctions. In most cases, you can fix the error yourself, without resorting to the help of service specialists. To ensure the correct operation of Aityuns, you need a stable connection to the Internet, so you should check the availability of the connection, settings, as well as the correctness of the contents of the hosts file. In addition, you should make sure that you are using the computer as an administrator and not as a guest. In the case of error 9006 and her similar problems often works the simplest way device reboot (enforced for iPhone), which instantly copes with system failure... You can also try downloading the firmware manually. But if the problem is deeper and we didn’t manage to remove the annoying notification informing about the failure, we will consider the available methods of elimination, which are also not difficult and can be performed by a user of any level.
Method 1: Using a different cable
A prerequisite for a correct connection is the original USB cable. If not used original cable, although certified by Apple, and even more so produced in the Middle Kingdom, connection problems are expected. But in any case, the cord must be carefully inspected for damage, kinks, if found, replace it. At first glance, the cable may seem to be in good working order, charge the smartphone and not show any signs of unsuitability, but with firmware, even minor defects can provoke error 9006.
Method 2: Connect to a different USB port
In some cases, the problem lies in the malfunction of the connector used, therefore, in order to exclude or confirm this version, you need to change the USB port. The connection should be made directly to the device, without using hubs, ports on the keyboard, etc. On a computer, it is better to use the connector on the rear panel system unit connected to motherboard, for a laptop - it does not matter, but except for 3.0, which visually differs from the rest of the ports in blue. It is better to turn off other unused devices at the time of operations with iTunes.
Method 3. Time and date settings
Such absurdity as incorrectly set time and date values on a computer easily leads to a lack of connection and the subsequent error 9006. We check and, if necessary, replace the time, date and time zone with the current ones.
Method 4. Updating iTunes
One of possible reasons error 9006 appears when updating - outdated version applications. We recommend that you check for available updates and install the most recent one. After restarting the computer, you can try to continue working, but if the problem is not resolved, go ahead.
Method 5. Disable antivirus and firewall
Often, error 9006 is associated with blocking access to Apple servers by security software installed on the computer. Antivirus, Windows Firewall or Firewall can prevent the connection, perceiving the actions of the program as a virus attack, so you need to disable protection while the procedure is running in iTunes. If the error has disappeared, then you need to add the application to the list of security software exclusions in order to avoid a problem in the future.
ADVICE. The conflict can be caused by other software, therefore it is recommended to disable other third party applications that are not currently in use, but may affect the process.
Method 6. Removing the IPSW file
To complete the update procedure, iTunes recovery uses IPSW files that may be corrupted or simply not downloaded from the server. In this case, you need to find the firmware file and delete it, and then download a new one. IPSW location folders:
- Windows XP: / Documents and Settings / username / Application Data / Apple Computer / iTunes / iPhone Software Updates;
- Windows Vista and 7: / Users / username / AppData / Roaming / Apple Computer / iTunes / iPhone Software Updates;
- Windows 8, 10: / Users / username / AppData / Roaming / Apple Computer / iTunes;
- macOS: ~ / Library / iTunes / iPhone Software Updates.
Method 7. Restore the registry
Any operations with the registry manually should be carried out only by a specialist, since even the slightest changes made by a user who does not have certain knowledge can lead to unpleasant consequences for the system. Special tools, such as WinThruster, are used to automatically correct entries to perform the procedure automatically. The program will create a backup copy and perform a scan, as well as, along the way, replace damaged registry files.
Method 8. Reinstall iTunes
If the previous methods have not yielded results, you can try reinstalling the application, while Aytyuns must be completely removed along with all the "tails", and then restart the computer and install the latest version.
Method 9. Updating system components
It is possible to eliminate component conflicts only if, in addition to the fresh iTunes program, all updates for the operating system are installed on the computer. The same applies to drivers, as well as anti-virus databases, it is also recommended to "refresh" them.
Method 10. Performing the procedure on another computer
When all methods have been tried, but error 9006 remains in place, you can try your luck on another PC or laptop. This often works if settings or computer malfunctions prevent you from performing the procedure in iTunes. Despite the simplicity of elimination, in some cases error 9006 cannot be eradicated at home, then there is no choice but to go for help in service center, where they will carry out diagnostics and, having found out the cause of the problem, will fix the problem.
