You need to check your hosts file, and there is no entry for "gs.apple.com". Mac Quit iTunes Launch Terminal Enter the following command and press Enter/Return. sudo nano /private/etc/hosts Enter the password you use an unknown to sign in to your computer when prompted, and press Enter/Return. Terminal will display the hosts file as seen below. If you see any entries for "gs.apple.com" then you need to either remove or comment the entry.

You hit the error because you may have used a jailbreaking tool like Redsn0w at some point of time, which added the entry to the Hosts file so that iTunes could connect to Cydia servers instead of Apple update servers. Temporarily Disable Firewall or Security Software If you don't have an entry in the host file for "gs.apple.com" and still getting Error 3194, then temporarily disable the firewall or anti-virus software on your computer, as it is quite possible that they're preventing iTunes from connecting to Apple servers. Check firmware file You may also get the "This device isn’t eligible for the requested build" error message if you're trying to update or downgrade your device with a firmware file that Ap

An unknown error occurred (3194) up vote 0 down vote favorite I have an iPhone 6 iOS 8.0. And I want to restore it. So I downloaded the iOS 8 firmware for iPhone 6 from this link then I opened itunes and pressed shift+click on restore button and then chose my downloaded ios 8.0 firmware, but I get the below error message: The iPhone couldn't be restored. An unknown error occurred (3194) I searched the internet and some people suggested modifying the hosts file found in this location C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc by removing or commenting the apple.gs lines. But I still get the error. So if anyone could please advise how to restore to the currently installed iOS 8.0 without updating.

You will need to restore to (as of this writing) 8.1.3 which is the latest version available.
