Computer Rebuild - New OS - ITunes upgrade and error message 1417 on IPOD

My old WinXP Pro machine died (AFTER I deleted the NTFS file by mistake, so 100% completely my stuff-up)...so I rebuilt it and installed Windows Vista instead (yeah I know...!).
Now, as I had to rebuild from scratch, I lost everything except my i-tunes library and all my docs which I kept on a separate drive...thankfully
So, rebuilding I decide to install I-Tunes 7.0.1.8 ... no probs, can see my library, can see my Ipod.
But i-tunes then tells me there is an update to theI-Pod software itself, which I decide to install. It bombs out everytime with an Unknown Error installing v1.2 (Error message 1417).
Any clues please?
Also, when ripping some new CDs I bought into I-tunes, where it used to take, say, 30 secs/song it now takes 4 or 5 minutes....
thoughts on that one too?

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help: Error 1415, 1417, 1418, or 1428 when restoring or updating an iPod in iTunes 7 or later

  • ITunes displays -48 error message when syncing iPod Nano on Windows XP

    My girlfriend's mom's iPod Nano ran out of charge while jogging so she decided to charge it on her daughter's iHome. The next day she went to use her iPod but it was totally empty of all music and files. When she tried to sync it to iTunes, she received an eror message stating, "An unknown error has occurred (-48)" from iTunes and a Windows message stating that some iPod folder/file was corrupted.
    If anyone receives such a message, I was able to correct it by:
    -Plugging in your iPod to your PC
    -Ignore the error messages
    -Go to My Computer
    -Find your iPod's drive letter (ie. G:)
    -Right-click on it and select Properties
    -Go to Tools Tab >Error-checking and select Check Now
    You should be able to sync your iPod as before. I do not claim to be an expert so be warned that it may not work for you. Good luck!

  • New Ibook/itunes producer delivery error message

    I've been uploading ebooks via itunes producer with no plroblem until just recently. Now I get the following error message "com.apple.transporter.util.StreamUtil.readBytes(Ljava/io/InputStream;)[B". The epub file is validated and nothing has changed about how I do or prepare the delivery. This seems like it must be a bug on Apple's side. Has anyone else had this issue and how have you fixed it? I am at a loss. No fixes have worked so far.

    I am also having this same problem.  I'm just using iTunesProducer 2.3.1. and OSX 10.6.7.
    Has anyone had any response from Apple about this?
    I have asked today, but I don't hold out much hope of a reply.

  • When following your instructions on setting a blank new tab, I get and error message "invalid url", even though the sting entered in the config is as you state.

    I would like a blank new tab to open, but have followed the help guidance to modify the about:config.
    However, for all strings shown, I get a consistent error message "invalid url", even though the string has been copied correctly.

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • I want to upgrade the software (currently I have Mac OS X 10.6.4) but when the mac is downloading the new version i get an error message and is not possible get the most updated software: Mac OS X 10.6.8 or either the most recent itunes why?!?!?!

    Then you either have a network problem or a hardware problem or a corrupted hard drive. You might try:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    You can also try downloading from another computer on a different network connection.

  • I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder.

    I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder."
    I have tried a few things but iTunes closes right after i click okay. Anyone know anything?

    Look in your Home > Music folder.  There should be an iTunes folder there and it should have a number of files and folders including one called library.itl  You want to guide iTunes to that file.  If you don't see that file or folder then in your next post you will have to be very specific as to what you do see or how you have your iTunes set up because that's where it should be according to default settings.

  • As I downloaded new software upgrade in my iPod nano 7 th gen and also new iTunes upgrade then all data on my iPod got erased and now when I am trying to sync it again then sync button is disabled on the windows screen . Kindly help

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

    Likely this:
    Errors related to third-party security software
    Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 40, 1000, 9006
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.
    Restore using a different computer.
