Meaning

iphone error IPH-11596 typically appears when permissions dependencies are misconfigured or locked. On iPhone, restore/update/activation errors are commonly caused by a mix of cable/USB instability, outdated host software (Finder/iTunes), corrupted update payloads, or security/policy layers that block the device handshake. Fixes are most reliable when you stabilize the connection first, then re-run the update flow.
