Read This, then get a new cable.
K first off this is an utterly pointless error that caused me to loose valuable files, info, and time.
I was using my ipod and it had been running into a few problems. Such as the time being wrong etc. I plugged it into
iTunes
and it wouldnt show up. I tried over and over without success. SO
eventually i decided to put it into reovery mode. I plugged it into
iTunes, it saw it and that it was in recovery. I clicked restore and
everything went fine untill it got to actually updating the
software. I got
error code 6 and
error code 2003.
I found a tip to restart iTunes a couple times so i did without
success. I then found another article talking about battery charges and
cheap caples when i got a hunch. The night before i had added an
extention cable to my
ipod cable
so that i could run it to my bed. I pluged the normal ipod caple
straight into my computer, hit restore and BAM it worked. Thus I
realied that there was no need for me to recover my ipod because let me
tell you, 14 gigs of music and videos takes a LONG time to copy to my
ipod.
If you have the same problem try this:
1. DO NOT GO INTO RECOVRY MODE
2. Make sure you have the ipod directly connected to your computer (no extensions or hubs)
3. Restart iTunes a few times
4. If all else fails enter recovry mode and hope for the best
