Unable to update iPod after upgrading to iTunes 7.0.1.

Ever since upgrading to iTunes 7.0.1 from 6.x I have been unable to update my iPod. (60Gb with Video). It says on inserting my iPod a new version is available (1.2) from 1.1.2
I get "The iPod "name" could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (1417)".
I have tried the standard things... reset internet connection, restart PC, uninstall and reinstall iTunes...
Anyone resolved this problem?

I get "The iPod "name" could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (1417)".
some folks have been having some success with the 1417/1418 using eboncairn's technique:

Smart playlists won't play on video ipod after upgrade to itunes version 7

Upgraded to ITunes version 7 on Windows XP using Video Ipod with firmware level 1.2. Resynced Ipod after Itunes upgrade. Now when I hit ipod's play button on a smart playlist, nothing happens. If I hit play button from itunes, no problems...
Is this a known issue with a solution? I was unable to find a solution in the forum. Thank you for any assistance.

This problem only occurs when podcasts are included in the playlist. Full restoration of IPOD did not resolve problem.
Contacted Apple support after a 45-minutes hold time; the support staff were not helpful. Won't invest in a support agreement with Apple going forward...

I can't sync my iPod after upgrading to iTunes 7 - Help!

I'm running an Intel 20" iMac with all of the latest software updates applied.
My iPod is a 30GB iPod Photo (4G) running software version 1.2.1.
I upgraded to iTunes 7 last night. Since then, I can't sync my iPod. Here's what happened/happens...
I installed iTunes 7. On first run (iPod disconnected) it checked for album art and ran through my library to determine the zero gap playback info. That all happened successfully.
When I connect my iPod (which is set to auto update), it recognizes it, and show the status page (also shows up in "devices" in left pane) and immediately a small window pops up with the text "Updating library on 'Evan's iPod'". The progress bar gets to somewhere between 30-70% and then hangs.
I left it running all night and it never finished. My only option was to Force Quit iTunes. Once I did, my iPod was still fine, and had all my music on it, just nothing new.
I've tried rebooting my computer and iPod, to no avail.
I would try reformatting my iPod, except that you can now (seemingly) only do that through iTunes (as opposed to a separate updater as in the past). Since iTunes locks up as soon as my iPod is connected, that doesn't help me much...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Evan
Intel iMac 20" Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Ok... I just tried connecting my iPod directly to a USB port on the computer rather than via the USB hub I was using and everything is fine. Odd, but I'm happy now.
Thanks,
Evan

Itunes not recognising Ipod after upgrade to Itunes 9

Hello,
I upgraded to Itunes 9 as prompted, and now my computer (Windows XP) or Itunes 9 will not recognise my Ipod classic. I have tried uninstalling the USB drivers, uninstalling Itunes 9 and reinstalling Itunes 9 and then Itunes 8. Still not working.
Could someone please help, as I have been unable to find the answer.
Thanks!

Can you do a system restore rollback to a time when the iPod was recognized?

Unable to update apps after upgrading to yosemite

I have update my mavericks to Yosemite. But after upgrading , i m not able to update the apps. Its giving the error : "The update is not available for this apple id either because it was bought by a diff user or the item was refunded or canceled".
It is to be noted that the i haven't changed my apple id.

Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
Step 1
A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
Step 2
If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, select the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
Step 3
If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
Step 4
From the App Store menu bar, select
Store ▹ View My Account
Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.
Step 5
According to a report, the error can result from changing the language setting of your Apple ID account. I can't confirm.

Smart Playlist is not syncing to iPod after upgrade to iTunes 9

Since upgrading to iTunes 9, one of my smart playlists is no longer syncing to my iPod, however, it syncs fine with my iPhone.
The conditions for the playlist are:
Media kind is podcast
PlayCount is 0
Any ideas why it's not syncing?

Quick fix: Make a regular playlist. Drag the contents of the smart playlist into it. Sync the new playlist.
WIthout seeing the rules for your smart list it is hard to guess what the problem is, but you may get better results if you break it down into more sublists gathered together in a playlist folder.

Can't sync ipod after upgrade of itunes!

When I upgraded to itunes 7, it took all of the songs off of my ipod, but they are still in my library. When I restored the ipod, I got a message that the library was not copied into my ipod "because you are not authorized to play them on this computer." Anybody have any idea how to fix this?

try playing one of the songs for a few seconds in iTunes. do you get asked to authorise? if so, and if you do, do the songs transfer the next time you sync?

Unable to play all songs on iPod after upgrading to iTunes 6

I recently updated my iPod (4G) to 2.3 and iTunes to 6, and now I can't play my entire library on my iPod, but I can play the entire library on my PC. Any takers? The songs in question have an exclaimation point next to them.

Usually the opposite happens to me it plays in the ipod but usually it means that iTunes can't locate the original location on the file so its like you have to right click on it and show iTunes where it is. I dunno if I helped. Hopefully one of the more accomplished members could help.

Can't sync iPod after upgrading to iTunes 11

I had a Windows XP computer with an older version of iTunes which I synced (by cable) with my iPod Classic (version 2.0). The XP computer recently crashed and I bought a Windows 8.1 computer on which I installed iTunes 11, and authorized the new computer. I managed to restore my music to the new computer from backup, but now when I sync, newly purchased tracks are not transferred to the iPod. Also I can't seem to rip from CDs anymore, the "Import" window doesn't open when I put a music CD in the drive. The tracks in my playlist purchased from iTunes have a "cloud" icon next to them, which I believe means they haven't been redownloaded to my computer but are on the iCloud servers. I don't understand iTunes 11. Does iCloud stop devices from syncing by wire? I don't want iCloud or any new features, I just want my old functions to work! Help!

Okay! Thanks! Followed the link to that threat and figured out the problem. I had moved iTunes to a sub-folder in Applications (for grouping together as a stack in the dock, something stacks should have been able to do anyway) and when it installed the new version it didn't check where the old one was, it just dropped the new one in Applications.
Everyone else who has this problem double check and make sure you don't have two different versions of iTunes: one in the applications folder and another that your dock shortcut directs to.

Hi iTunes-1,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The error message you posted indicates a possible firmware update is needed for iTunes for Windows to work with your CD drive.
iTunes for Windows: Updating the firmware on your CD or DVD drive - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201852
Having outdated firmware can cause issues using CDs and DVDs with iTunes for Windows. Firmware is a type of software stored in a chip in hardware that can sometimes be updated.Identifying drives and firmware versions
To run CD Diagnostics, follow the steps in this document.
After following the steps to run CD Diagnostics linked above, look at section three to find out more about your optical drive(s).
Here is an example of what section three might look like:
In this example there are two drives. Drive E is a Samsung DVD-ROM drive with a model designation of SD-616 that has firmware version F000. Drive F is an NEC drive with a model designation of NR-7900A that has firmware version 1.08.Updating the firmware
If the optical drive you are using came with your computer, check with the support site for your computer for a firmware update. Typically you will need to go to the support website for the computer maker and click on a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your computer model designation and operating system version to see what updates are available. Then look through the available updates for a firmware update for your optical drive. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of your computer.
If the optical drive you are using came as a separate part (was not included with a computer), check the support site for the drive maker for a firmware update. Sometimes the manufacturer is not clear in the CD Diagnostics results. In that case, you may just have to search the Internet for the drive model designation. You can usually find out who made the drive by looking through the results of such a search. Once you have identified who made your drive, go to the support website for that company. Look for a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your optical drive model designation. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of the optical drive.Verifying that the firmware was updated
Run CD Diagnostics again.
Examine the CD Diagnostics results. The firmware version for the drive should be the new version.

Also, you mentioned that you have been successful burning a CD with the Windows OS. Make sure that you have closed all software programs that can access the CD burner so that there isn't a conflict for the drive. Sometimes chaning the burn speed from "maximum" to 8x can also help in this situation.
I hope this information helps ...

Ipod not connecting after upgrade to itunes 8

After upgrading to itunes 8 my ipod (nano) will no longer connect to my computer and is not recognised by itunes. When I connect the ipod I get the windows 'install new hardware wizard' running but however I try to work through this I get nowhere. Looking at Device Manager in Windows says there are no drivers for the ipod - it has a little exclamation mark next to it.
My wifes brand new ipod will also not connect and its straight out of the box.
Not at all sure what to do next. The support pages don't seem to cover getting the install new hardware wizard. Any help or advice please!.

Ben888
Having reported this to my dealer, and them agreeing to supply a new lead to try, I had one final attempt at resetting the iPod.
Having restored, reset and updated the iPod half a dozen times before without success, a reset as described here:
http://www.apple.com/uk/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
worked and it is now merrily playing again in the car with the original lead.
It would seem that Apple have developed another piece of spectacularly temperamental equipment........and people slate Microsoft!
Hope it works for you as well!

After upgrading to iTunes 9.2, unable to type in text/search fields

Hi,
After upgrading to iTunes 9.2, I am unable to type into text or search fields within iTunes.
Haven't tried all fields, but I've seen it in both search in iTunes and the iTunes store, and also trying to create folders on my iPhone (through iTunes only, it works fine on the phone).
Anyone else seen this or have an idea for a fix?
Thanks...

I'm wondering if you figured out this problem. I'm having the exact same issue, which means I can't even log in to my iTunes account. I've even tried uninstalling it and reverting to iTunes 9.1.1, which then won't even open.

Can't Recognized iPod device after upgrading to iTune 7 / 7.0.1

After upgrading to iTune 7 (and later 7.0.1), my iPod Video 60G (firmware 1.2) has been having problems getting recognized by my desktop.
Symptoms:
- Device manager in Windows 2000 reports the device as an Unknown USB Device
- The iPod won't get recharged nor sync'ed.
- The "Do not disconnect" screen won't appear on the iPod.
- Since Windows can't recognize my iPod at all, of course I won't be able to see it in iTune.
I plugged the iPod to my Dell laptop and got it recognized and recharged properly though.
After poking around for a long time, I figured that if I disable the USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller on my desktop (thru the Device Manager), I can finally get the iPod recognized properly. Problem is, now it takes forever for me to sync my iPod (USB 2.0 disabled, so I'm stuck with the slow USB 1.1)...
I noticed that after upgrading to iTune 7, the display backlight on the iPod is kept on (though dim). If I remember correctly, on older versions of iTune, the backlight is completely off. I'm suspecting whether the extra current draw required by the dim backlight is screwing up my desktop USB....
Anybody from Apple gonna look into the issue and consider turning the backlight back to off in the next release??
Windows 2000

I have no problems on my Dell laptop... I'm having problem with my 4-year old non-brand-name desktop only.
... which is kinda abnormally 'cause normally you would expect USB 2.0 power problems on laptops only. Btw, I've got the latest drivers installed already for the chipset and Win2K etc...
What's more interesting... is the fact that on older iPod firmware, everything was running just fine... upgrade to iTunes 7.0 and boom... I'm having problems. And, it's not recognized at the Windows USB device recognition level, so I think we can isolate the problem source to the iPod firmware upgrade.
Seriously... my bet is on the extra power drain from the backlight being left on during USB connection...
Guess i'll have to stick with slow USB until Apple has a new firmware...
This latest upgrade is generating a lot of unhappy customers...... and the sad thing is, Apple did a bad job in backward compatibility and made it extremely difficult to downgrade to an older version of iTune / firmware.... Apple better get these fixed asap...

Anyone having issues with USB port power after upgrading to iTunes 11.1?

After upgrading to itunes 11.1, I can no longer use the USB ports on my wired keyboard to synch my iPhone 4s, ipod Nano, and Ipad 2. Previously, I could use this port to synch and charge the nano and iphone, and synch (but not charge) my iPad. Now I simply get an error when I attach any of the devices ("a usb device needs more power").
I currently use all four of the USB ports on the back of my imac (UPS power supply, aformentioned keyboard, a Lacie backup drive that has its own power supply, and a superdrive). Interestingly, when I unplug the Superdrive (which is plugged directly into the mac on a separate USB port), the USB port on the keyboard will work. Unplugging any of the other 2 devices does not allow the port on the to work.
I bought the wired keyboard to have the easily accessible UBS port to synch my nano as well as the fact I needed a number pad.

Get yourself a good self-powered 7 port USB hub to plug your extra devices into.
