If is it old but old is gold for more user

iTunes uses IPSW files to restore your device. If those files are unusable, try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file to a different directory.

This will cause iTunes to download a new copy of the IPSW. When a restore issue is specific to a user, it's likely due to an unusable .

ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file doesn't resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences.

Creating a new user will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new user. You can find the .ipsw files in these locations.

Mac OS X

Code:

iPhone    ~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates

iPad    ~/Library/iTunes/iPad Software Updates

iPod touch    ~/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates

Note: The tilde "~" represents your Home directory.

Windows XP

Code:

iPhone    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates

iPad    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPad Software Updates

iPod touch    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates

Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, choose Start > Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.

Windows Vista, 7, and 8

Code:

iPhone    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates

iPad    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPad Software Updates

iPod touch    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates

Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start, type %appdata% in the search bar, and press the Return key.

Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right, click the magnifying glass, type %appdata%, and press the Return key.
