ITunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined error message

I've been getting the "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined" error message for a while. I have tried restoring my iPod but as soon as I try to sync it again (even with nothing changing in iTunes or on the iPod) I get the same error message. Whenever I want to add music to my iPod I have to delete everything and then wait hours for it to restore which is ridiculous. Anyone have any other suggestions for fixing this problem?
I'm using a 3rd generation iPod touch with 4.2.1 software and iTunes 10.5.3.3

The fact that there is so many discussions with no clear answer is the problem.
I went back and looked through all the different suggestions and and tried them all to make sure I didn't miss anything. What finally worked for me was making sure all apps were updated on the iPod and making sure all apps were updates in iTunes (under the Library>Apps tab NOT under devices) and then syncing.

    The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    Dear Lawrence Finch: 
    If you're still around I hope you see this message, as you're the FIRST person (after reading every link, thread, other sites, apple support articles, etc.) to mention JB may be causing this iTunes popup window to REPEATEDLY occur:
    "The iPhone software update server could not be contacted."
    No, I did not hack anything (are you kidding?  Grannies don't hack!), but I unknowingly bought a 3Gs iOS 3.1 from ebay that was not advertised as JB.  Since it is like brand new, I was going to keep it (because my old backup is iOS 3.1.2) & was trying to simply restore & update, which (I thought) would remove the JB (that's what everybody says at forums, etc).
    Instead, after "erasing all settings/content" (inside phone's Settings to get the prior person's name out of there), it is now stuck in White Apple Mode.
    Put it in DFU/Recovery Mode & connect to iTunes but that stupid above message keeps appearing & I have already read/tried EVERYTHING to get rid of that message, starting with: 
    1.  OLD phones (3Gs) with OLD iOS 3.1+ should work FINE with OLD Mac (iBook) with OLD OSX (Tiger 10.4.11) with OLD iTunes (9.2.1[5]).  So that can't be the problem.
    Here's all the other things apple & others say to check which I already checked:
    2.  USB ports are FINE, both work FINE, so that's not the problem.
    3.  No "extra USB devices" are connected, ONLY a mouse, & then the phone (yes, I tried it w/o the mouse connected but that didn't help).
    4.  No "usb hubs."
    5.  Latest iTunes for this OSX has already been DL'd (iTunes 9.2.1[5]).  If you know of a newer one for this OSX, please advise.
    6.  No antivirus software.
    7.  No security software.
    8.  No routers; only 1 comcast modem, period.  Wired Ethernet.
    9.  No wifi gadgets, no wifi at all.
    10.  No firewalls, except what is on iBook in the SHARING/System-Prefs. section.  It's turned OFF.
    11.  Did the hosts/terminal thing sudo nano whatever it was.  There were only 3 lines, NO gs.apple.com:
    xxxxx local host
    xxxxx broadcast host
    xxxx local host
    Oh, & btw, ATT officially unlocked this phone (after I filled out their online forms) but I can't finish the process via iTunes to get their Confirmation that "Device is Now Unlocked," so I can use T-Mo.
    So that's it.  If you have any other ideas of what to do from here, since from your comment, maybe it's the stupid JB on this phone that is causing the problem (???), please advise.
    Many thanks!

    Hi all,

But then started an error occuring when I view the Portal Page: "The Favorite Content Portlet could not be populated.Error Message." This error is show in a dialog box when ever I view page or navigate to other tabs(subpages) of portal.
    When I diagnose I got that this error is in "Main Navigator". If I delete the Main Navigator from Portal this error does not occur. But without Navigator subpages(tabs) cannot be visible.
    This is the case when I make new INSTANT PORTAL. Please Help urgent!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks,

    I strongly recommend upgrading to the 3.0.9 release (iAS
    1.0.2.2) with the 3.0.9.8.2 patch (this patch should be
    available for NT/2000 this week). Also, the database should be
    running 8.1.7.1 (or later), as explained in the iAS release
    notes.

  • When I tap the "download for Android" on my Android phone, I receive a "requested item could not be found" error message.

    I am attempting to install Firefox mobile on my Android phone. When I tap "download for Android" on my current browser, I receive a "requested item could not be found" error message.

    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    On some supported devices, a bug prevents Firefox from appearing in the Market. This may be related to the recent Market update. You can go to Settings/Applications and uninstall the Market update, then find and install Firefox.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly from here:
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to "Time Capsule. The backup disk image /Volumes/Data/MacBook Pro.sparsebundle could not be created (error 60)"

    We are Mountain Lion using Time Machine to backup to Time Capsule. When the backup tries to run, an error appears after a couple of minutes saying "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer." Then an error shows up saying "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to "Time Capsule.The backup disk image /Volumes/Data/MacBook Pro.sparsebundle could not be created (error 60)"
    I low level reformatted the Time Capsule and that didn't fix it. I then tried using Time Machine on another computer to back up to that same Time Capsule and it worked- so I'm doubting it's the Time Capsule.
    I've noticed that when Time Machine runs, that a  folder called Data  at /Volumes/ appears while Time Machine is trying to back up. I think it's making the sparsebundle to transfer to the Time Capsule.
    However, after a couple of minutes- it comes back saying that the disk is unreadable.
    I think it's something wrong with either creating the sparsebundle or opening the disk image that seems to be a part of the Time Machine backup process on the local drive. 
    I am able to create a disk image with Disk Utilitiy without any problem on that system. I've repaired the disk and disk permissions with Disk Utility and replaced the directory with Disk Warrior. I've trashed what preference files I could find and restarted. I've completely removed the backup destination from the computer and added it back again.
    Help!
    Thanks,
    Neil

    Yes, exactly.  It makes one sparse bundle per Mac.
    It's possible the TC's disk is too full for a new sparse bundle, or there may be some other problem.
    Via the Finder, locate the existing sparse bundle (see the pink box in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #17 if you're not sure how to do that).  See how large it is (plus how large anything else that may be there).  If the total is very near the size of the TC, that may be the problem.
    If not, a clue may be lurking in your logs.  Use the widget in #A1 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting to display the backup messages from your logs.  Locate the backup in question (probably the first one displayed), then copy and post all the messages here.

  • HT3275 I keep getting a message that says, The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data-1/iMac.sparsebundle" could not be created (error 60).

    I keep getting a message when trying to back up my main computer = 'The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/CMN iMac.sparsebundle” could not be created (error 60).'
    The error message changes sometimes to other numbers but it is not able to back anything up.  I have deleted any previous back ups and rechosen the destination disk (Time Capsule).  My other computers are doing the same thing periodically but this is the most important back up that I need.
    Any ideas anyone?

  • I keep getting "the network connection could not be established" error message when trying to update my iPads and iPhone to iOS 5.1

    I keep getting "the network connection could not be established" message when trying to update my iPad, iPad2 and iPhone4 devices using either my iMac or MacBook.  The Macs and iOS devices are apparently working correctly otherwise.  Problem started about a day ago when I connected one of the iPads to my iMac and iTunes notified my of an update for the device.  I tried and got the above message.  Tryied other iPad2 and iPhone4 and get the same message.  Also, get same message when trying to update using the MacBook. My system SW is 10.7.3 on the iMac and 10.6.8 on MacBook.  iTunes is version 10.6. Have gone thru the check list of things to check and have re-started. Would appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

    Another user named Springbk posted a fix that worked for me as I was having the same problem today:
    I Changed my DNS settings to OpenDNS
    On a Mac go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES>NETWORK>ADVACED>DNS
    change DNS by adding ( + )
    208.67.222.222
    then
    208.67.220.220
    click okay/apply after. then try the update. after the update, just delete the two open DNS server numbers. should revert back to your old one.

  • "The folder could not be found" error message

    I recently had Windows XP problems sever enough to cause me to reformat my hard drive and reinstall XP and all my programs. This resulted in drive letter assignments different from what I had before. I saved copies of my LR catalog in multiple locations to be safe. When I open Lightroom and point to the Catalog I get the error above when in the Develop Module and a "offline or missing" error code when in the Library Module. Obviously LR is looking for the files where they were before. I had been working with image files stored on K:\ but now those files are on H:\. I see three solutions: 1) do a reassignment of drive letters in Windows; 2) move the files from drive H:\ to drive K:\; 3) edit the target drive spec within the LR catalog (is this doable?). Does anyone have any comments on the merits of these solutions and any caveats to observe along the way? TIA, njb

    Right click on the top level missing folder, then choose Find MIssing Folder from context menu. This will open a dialog from which you can navigate your way to the new location. Once selected Lr should relink to the missing files

  • The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data/MacBook Air.sparsebundle" could not be accessed (error (null)).

    just brought a new macbook air and time capsule. time machine keep returning the above msg.
    can somebody help?

    First, restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting the power adapter and reconnecting it. If other devices on the network can see it, you can skip this step.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    Click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate to unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the Advanced button, then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Click Renew DHCP lease.
    Try again to back up.
    If you still can't, open the Time Machine preference pane and delete the TC from the list of backup destinations. You may have to unlock the settings by clicking the lock icon in order to do this. Then add it back.

  • Error the actual price could not be determined while executing CKMLCP

    Hi!
    we are facing the problem while executing CMLCP, the error message is "The actual price for 10VN000012/MHR could not be determined" ( error message number CKMLLA102).
    Our scenarios is as below:
    we have 4 activity types out of which activity type "MHR" are used only for Indirect activity allocaiton tracing factor that means all service costs from service cost centres will be distributed to production cost centres in the ratio of actual quantity confirmed for MHR activity type.
    for this activity type we will not have any actual cost distribution, so there will not be any actual cost for this activity type.
    So, as actual quantity is confirmed during production process and while executing CMLCP is expecting actual price for the same ( we are executing KSII for actual activity price calculation before costing run).  is there any enhancement to avoid this error, because our client don't want to allocate cost to this activity type.
    regs,
    ramesh

    Hi Ramesh,
    Message CKMLLA102 is standard system behaviour when the actual
    price of an activity is zero because cost center accounting does not
    allow actual prices to be zero.
    Unfortunately the system can't distinguish an actual activity price
    of zero from a not yet calculated activity price, so for activities
    with actual price zero the message CKMLLA 102 is sent.
    Have you check the SAP note 361379?. It provides you some options to overcome
    the issue.
    Best regards,

  • Even after resets get "The backup disk image "/Volumes/FreeAgent GoFlex Drive/MacBeth (2) 1.sparsebundle" could not be created (error 22)."

    HELP!  "The backup disk image “/Volumes/FreeAgent GoFlex Drive/MacBeth (2) 1.sparsebundle” could not be created (error 22)."
    TC estimates over 750GB for full backup.
    Late 2010 MBA is connected wirelessly to
    802.11n (1st gen) TC that is connected via ethernet hub built into house to motorola router using charter.com for internet.
    I have had same problem for over 150 days and multiple reboots, restarts in proper order, firmware updates, unplugs with 5min plus gaps, bypassing the tc and using external 500gb WD mybook via usb to time capsule, replacement of the WD mybook to new 2TB Free Agent GoFlex drive, etc, etc, etc!  Note: I originally named my MBA hard drive MacBeth, but at some point months ago, it said backup already existed and system automatically created MacBeth (2), worked for a while, then stopped again, despite trying nearly daily.
    I gave up and started using Carbon Copy Clone daily for just the 128gb on internal SSD of my late 2011 11" MacBook Air, but need to get past these time capsule errors to back up the external disk!  Due to lack of space in MBA, I had long ago transferred both itunes and iphoto and all imovie/fcpx files to a 1tb external disk (WD Passport) that I keep in my bag with MBA.  It is partitioned with 150gb for cloning the MBA, and over 750gb for media/itunes/iphoto/etc.
    Also, I have endured months of "your hard drive is full" messages and system lockups, applying the solution given to me by genious bar (deleting all aol.com outboxes/recovered messages/spam/trash under library/mail/V2/Mailboxes folders, empty trash, restart....watch recovered hard drive space mysteriously shrink next couple days to zero.....repeat)
    Due to lack of space, I had not been able to do javascript and other system updates.  Yesterday, I noticed even safari bookmark bar had mysteriously emptied (not disappeared, I can hide and show the space where the bar used to be - it is just blank area with no data except for eyelass-book-topsites icons), so I transferred a few large quicktime movie files recorded with isight camera to the external disk, and freed up 20 gbs for the first time!
    This got my hopes up yesterday because after I completed all system/software updates, suddenly the bookmark bar showed up and I was able to start the time capsule backup! It took overnight preparing for backup, but finally started and progressed to 12gb of the 100gb+ needed (i guess the update where it left off months ago for the estimated 750gb for the full backup?), then I put system to sleep and took it with me (thus leaving the wireless time capsule network as I do daily fully expecting it to continue when I returned home in the evening.)  But alas, upon return, back to the "Time Machine could not complete backup, The backup disk image ".....sparsebundle" could not be created (error 22)"  Ugh!  More reboots, unplugs, 5min gaps....still Ugh!
    So the problem continues...please help!  Here are my settings:
    About this mac:
    Mac OS X V. 10.7.5
    processor 1.6 ghz intel core 2 duo, memory 4 4g 1067 MHz DDR3
    software up to date!
    Airport Utility:
    V 6.2 (620.33)
    both internet globe and TC show green dots in graphic, however internet occasionally shows yellow then goes to green, but still gets error 22.  Suddenly TC showed explanation mark and says lost connection and asked if I wanted to 'forget', gave same errors, then mysteriously went back to green, but still got error 22!.
    Internet:
    connection: connected, displays router address, 2 dns server, and domain name: charter.com
    Time Capsule:
    shows network, ip address, serial number, version 7.6.3, status: (green dot) Setup over WAN,
    wireless clients: phones, macbooks (including this MBA), printers, wii
    If you need other settings to help me, just ask!  I have read a few of the other solutions in forums, but trying not to erase disks, especially since it worked for a minute yesterday!

    To step sideways.. why not just use CCC to backup the 750GB of the hard disk to the TC.
    You need to understand this is going to be a super slow process and each time you stop it.. it is going to give issues. CCC will at least do a more reliable job of it than TM.
    I would also say.. this is going to be tough without ethernet. You need to understand the backup speed over wireless can be 10GB per hour.. that makes 75hrs to backup the disk. The air needs to run non-stop doing that.. without you touching it.
    I would get another external drive.. plug that into the MBA and if you really want to use TM.. make a backup one to the other.. but CCC will again do a better job and work faster. It will be much faster than over wireless.
    I am trying to think of ways around the issue of just speed.. but plainly you have lots of other issues.. being the simple unreliablity of the TM to identify the TC.
    If you want to make this work.. give yourself a weekend.
    Load 5.6 utility into the MBA..
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Take the TC back to 7.5.2 firmware. It is a really old version and latest firmware does it no good at all.
    Wipe its hard disk using erase and start over.. give it new names for everything.
    So call it TC
    Set the wireless to 5ghz and name it TC5ghz
    Use WPA2 Personal security. Use a 10 character passkey non dictionary.
    At 5ghz you should get 2x the speed as at 2.4ghz but the air will need to be right next to the TC..
    (alternatively buy the USB to ethernet cord apple have available.. it is $30 in the apple store and do it over pseudoethernet. http://store.apple.com/au/product/MC704ZM/A/apple-usb-ethernet-adapter That is the wrong store but you get the idea. )
    WIth a fully clean system.. now do a full reset of TM.
    See A4 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    Direct the TM to back to the TC.. and make sure the external hard disk is not excluded.
    Of course the TC has to be 1TB version to fit that much data.. goes without saying right.
    Even over pseudo - ethernet this will take many hours.. and you basically have to leave it to work.. do not touch it.. make sure the MBA cannot sleep though.. turn off sleep.. beforehand.
