Hey guys,

I need some serious help!!!! I jailbroke my ipad about a year ago using redsnow 0.9.64b. I want to completely remove the jail break and update it to the new ios5. (i want the ipad to be like it was when i bought it) Only problem is when i go to update the ipad it gives me an error message 3194 in itunes. I used tiny umbrella and unchecked the box in tiny umbrella which says "set hosts to cydia on exit (if you need a clean restore from apple uncheck this box). Problem is it still shows the error 3194 when i try to update the ipad. Any idea how to get around this, thanks in advance guys.....hope ya can help with this.

Try restoring with a different computer, or try a DFU/Recovery mode restore. Also try a Pwned DFU mode restore.

Can you explain exactly how to a pwned dfu restore?

Make sure your device is connected to the computer, then continue below.
1. Download iReb from iH8sn0w.com
2. Turn off your device.
3. Make sure the screen is completely blank, then hold the lock button for 2 seconds.
4. Keep holding the lock button, then hold the home button at the same time until roughly 1 or 2 seconds after the screen goes blank, then release the lock button and keep holding the home button.
5. Release the home button when your computer recognizes the device, or until iReb does.

Error 3194 is about your hosts file, you need to open up your computers host file and delete every line that has gs.apple.com on it. That should fix it, I guess TinyUmbrella didn't delete them for some reason.
