Keep getting message "ipad cannot be synced, unknown error (1150)...what does that mean?

Question

Whenever I try to sync my iPad I keep getting message "iPad cannot be synced, unknown error" with code (1150).  What does that mean?

Answer 1

This happened to me after I upgraded to iOS6. 
Tried everything I could find in a common thread here on the site, but what finally worked was...well, the last thing I did before it allowed a sync, I guess I can't say for sure that this is the problem, but...somehow, in the sync settings for the iPad, the "Sync Only Checked Songs and Videos" box had become unchecked.  Clearly, there isn't enough room on the iPad for everything on the laptop, so I think this may have been choking it. 
Worked fine at that point.
And, for what it's worth, I looked at the Music tab for my iPad in iTunes, and THERE it said only to use selected artists and playlists, but on the main SUMMARY page, the box was unchecked. 
Oh, and I updated all the apps on the iPad (73 updates??) before trying the sync, so that might be a factor too. 
Good luck.
