How to Fix iPhone Error 9?
Method 1: Check the USB port and connector
The iTunes 9 error may appear if there is an accidental disconnection between the device and the computer during the data transfer process. Follow the steps below to check your USB connection in the following ways:
1. Use the USB cable that came with your device. If you do not have it, try another Apple USB cable.
2. Switch to another USB port on your computer. Do not connect your keyboard.
3. Try to connect to another computer.
Method 2: Check Anti-Virus and Firewall
When you try to upgrade your iPhone / iPad, iTunes connects to Apple, checks for hashes, security keys, and more. If, during the attempt, iTunes can not connect to the Apple servers, it generates an error such as the iTunes 9 error.
Ensure that all virtualization applications such as Parallels or VMWare are closed, as they may interrupt the ability of the computer to communicate over USB, especially if they are not configured correctly or are out of date.
