"error occured while reading from device"

when trying to sync our itouches the device is initailly recongnized in itunes and will begin to sync , but never gets through the whole proccess - each time it gets to a different step, but always ends with error message "ipod cannot sync as an error occured while reading from device" or something close to that...any ideas or help please....
i have checked the usb drivers...uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and removed the security software that I can find....

It could be to either a problem with a "file" that is either one the iPod or on the computer that is trying to be read for syncing. I would in order:
- Reset the iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod via iTunes. First from backup then to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • An error occurred while ready from devices

    I am using windows vista and trying to sync up to my pc. When I try to sync up, I get the message that an error occurred while reading from device and an error occurred while writing to the device. I have two iPods. One iPod had a restore done to it. One iPod is brand new. Both iPods can download apps through the internet without any problems.

  • HT4528 I can't seem to sync my iPhone with iTunes.  I keep getting this message:  iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device.  What can I do?

    I can't seem to sync my iPhone to my computer; I keep getting this message:  "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device."  I get the same message with my iPad, even though they all share the same account.  What can I do?

    This could be caused by a USB connection issue. Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to the Mac using the USB cable it came with. Also, try disconnecting all other USB devices.
    If you haven't already try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

  • "An error occured while reading from this device"

    "An error occured while reading from this device" is the message I get whenever I try to sync my iPad to iTunes.
    The only way I can sync is to do a restore and then put everything back on it.
    Can anybody help?

    Make sure you also unisntall
    Bonjour,
    Apple Mobile Device Service,
    Quicktime
    and there's a couple of others. there are Apple support articles, but I'm sorry I don't have the articles linked. Also ensure you reboot after all of the uninstalls and reboot you iPad as well. This all fixed my laptop, but as I said, my desktop PC is still acting funny.
    As your laptop seems older, and the MB link is suspected on a particular group of newer motherboards, so I doubt your laptop motherboard is the common link.
    You might want to double check that its USB2 ports.

    i am trying to sync iphone 5 to itunes but it says "iTunes could not connect to the iphone as an error occured while reading from the device " and the iphone is not seen on itunes........

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. And then reboot your computer.
    See if that fixes your problem.

  • Error while reading from device

    I just upgraded from a 3gs to the iPhone 4 32GB. I upgraded to the newest iTunes. The phone is still using iOS 4.0.
    When syncing large movies that worked fine on the 3gs, I get the message "Attempting to copy to the "my phone name" failed. An error occured while reading from the device.
    Everything else synced fine, and some small homemade movies synced fine. Just the 2 that I had installed from "data discs" I got with DVDs won't sync. They play fine in iTunes.
    Any thoughts????
    Gene

    Problem solved... after reading around on the Internet I tried some ideas. The one that fixed the problem was the fact that I had a 6 foot usb extension cable on my system (not front facing usb ports). I plugged the iPhone data cable directly into the back of the PC and it fixed the issue.
    Thanks

    Hello mohkhosh,
    I see that you're getting an error indicating possible hard driver failure, that you have this message from 3 different sources. I will try to help you with this.
    After reviewing everything  you're looking at needing to replace the hard drive. I would suggest contacting support to see what they can do for you.

  • Error while executing SSIS package - Error: 4014, Severity:20, State: 11. A fatal error occurred while reading the input stream from the network. The session will be terminated (input error: 109, output error: 0)

    Hi,
    We are getting the following error when running our SSIS packages on Microsoft SQL Server 2012 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1:
    Error: 4014, Severity:20, State: 11.   A fatal error occurred while reading the input stream from the network. The session will be terminated (input error: 109, output error: 0)
    SQL Server Data Tools and SQL Server Database Engine reside on the same server.
    We tried the following:
    Disabling TCP Chimney Offload
    Installed Windows Server 2008 SP1
    Splitting our SSIS code into multiple steps so it is not all one large continuous operation
    The error occurs during a BulkDataLoad task.
    Other options we are investigating with the engineering team (out-sourced, so delayed responses):
    Firewall configurations (everything is local, so this should not make a difference)
    Disabling the anti-virus scanner
    Are there other things we can try?
    Any insight is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi HenryKwan,
    Based on the current information, the issue can be caused by many reasons. Please refer to the following tips:
    Install the latest hotfix based on your SQL Server version. Ps: there is no SQL Server 2012 R2 version.
    Change the MaxConcurrentExecutables property from -1 to another one based on the MAXDOP. For example, 8.
    Set "RetainSameConnection" Property to FALSE on the all the connection managers.
    Reference:
    https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/774370/ssis-packages-abort-with-unexpected-termination-message
    If the issue is still existed, as Jakub suggested, please provide us more information about this issue.

  • Time capsule remote access message from airport utility "An error occurred while reading the configuration"

    WHEN I TRY TO ACCESS Time capsule remotely, I receive a  message from airport utility "An error occurred while reading the configuration." It worked before on the same computer with the same setting. I am in a different country now (Afghanistan). Not sure if that can be an issue.

    If the TC is at home and in router mode as the main router of the network, get someone at home to give you the current public IP which will be on the summary page of the airport utility.
    With the public IP try and access it by typing the IP directly into finder.. go.. connect to server.
    AFP://publicip.
    If you have setup WAN access it will. Otherwise no.
    For BTMM and iCloud access and its various issues.. this thread may give you some ideas.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3699096?start=0&tstart=0
    If the icloud method proves unreliable and you are dependent on access to the TC.. I strongly recommend better and more reliable access methods.. in particular buy a VPN modem or router.. whichever suits your internet type and put the TC in bridge behind it. Direct connect to the TC via the vpn.
    You will need either a static public IP which you purchase as an extra from your ISP .. maybe via a business account or setup a dyndns account which are readily available.

  • "An error occurred while reading the configuration"

    I updated my Time Capsule (1tb, old) with the new software last night (to 7.4.1 from 7.3.2). The upgrade process seemed to work fine. I then tried to go into the TC with Airport Utility 5.4.1 and when I click on the TC, I get a message that says, 'An error occurred while reading the configuration. Make sure your Apple wireless device is plugged in and in range of your computer or connected via Ethernet and try again. (-5). I've rebooted the TC. I have plugged into it directly.
    It now asks me for my password. I type it in and then I get the message. Any suggestions? Downgrade? Re-run the upgrade? Reset the TC?

    foohan,
    I had this same error, and I did have to reset (hold down the reset button for 5 seconds) my AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule to get past it. I noticed two things, though.
    1. If I tried to connect to my Time Capsule from Finder, I got an error. But if I clicked the "Connect As" button, it asked for my password again, and I could get to all of my files to back them up.
    2. All of my files were still on my Time Capsule after I reset it. I use it for remote file storage, not Time Machine, so I can't tell you if Time Machine backups will pick up where they left off.
    Hope this helps.
