Update the Windows or Mac system to current and check for iTunes updates, reboot and try again:

If you see an error when you update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod - Apple Support


Here is the general sequence (you’re well along in this, most likely) and the documented errors:

If you see the Restore screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

If your computer doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod - Apple Support

iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support


If you’ve already followed that, and tried the update and the reboot, contact Apple Support using the link in the upper right.
