Hi,
As we all know there is no certain cause for most of itunes error. We just try to explain from our personal experience and some common user report but it would not strange if you found something different.

“Best way to find it by check your iDevice update log txt exactly which function was failure or cause of error”

Reply here for minimum 2-3 time 100% tested solution with all details so we will add/update it.
Thanks

Use TinyUmbrella and "Kick Device Out Of Recovery" to boot.

Error 1011
This is caused by recovery mode being in userland.

Error 1013
This means that the baseband did not get updated. Either remove the gs.apple.com entry from your hosts file and let the baseband
upgrade or if you want to preserve the baseband just jailbreak at this point to boot it up.
Restart computer; change computer; reinstall system, if the device is always in restoring mode:
XP users can jump from restoring mode with ibus; MAC users can use iNdependence or similar other sw.

Error 1014
This occurs when you try to downgrade your device's baseband.

Error 1015
This error is common when downgrading iPhones and 3G iPads. The problem occurs when the device's baseband has a higher version
number than the baseband in the firmware you restored to.
Just set auto-boot true in iRecovery or use iREB/TinyUmbrella/RecBoot.1 In case this is not working use Pwnagetool to create a custom firmware
WITHOUT the iPad baseband, put your device in pwned DFU Mode and restore via iTunes.

Error 1050
Bad response from gs.apple.com OR need iREB for preparing the device for restoring to custom IPSW

Error 1394
Older IOS. Try with latest one.
Baseband prevent the update itself. Sometime happens with refurbish device.

Error 3191
QuickTime may be corrupted. You must reinstall it before iTunes will work. Windows users, also try turning off Compatibility Mode for QuickTime

Error 3194
Occurs when trying to install an old firmware and Apple's server disallows the installation. The only solution is to have the SHSH blob backed up and modify the
hosts file to point to Saurik's Cydia Server where they are backed up (or localhost if you have it yourself). Also happens if restoring to the latest iOS and the
hosts point to Cydia. Remove gs.apple.com lines in hosts file.
Another message that this error can display is "not eligible for requested build". Restore latest IOS with latest iTunes.

Error 3195
There is no SHSH blob for the firmware.
This is the same as "This device isn't eligible for the request build." but with an cache error.

Error 3200
You are trying to update to a firmware, when in fact, there is only a Restore Ramdisk.

Error 4013
Connection to device is lost after the "Preparing iPhone for Restore" step but before the phone is actually wiped causing it to boot normally.

Seems to be an issue with syncing media to the device... It only seems to happen on jailbroken devices.
Create new user, try syncing with new user's library. If that fails, restore. If it doesn't fail, then something on YOUR itunes Library is causing the error.

Error 20000
This error can also be caused by the iDevice rebooting during the "Extracting Firmware" stage of restore.

Error 20008
This happened on a Mac with TinyUmbrella running before restoring a firmware to the Apple TV.

0x80090318
Something dealing with programs monitoring Winsock.
