Try:

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in

How can I synch my iTunes? If often says unknown error or problem with application?

I have problems synching my iPhones 4s with my MAcbook pro (10.8.2) and iTunes (11.0.1). I can connect my iphone 4s(6.0.1) directly to my macbook pro or via the same network. I can start the synch via itunes or my phone. 20% of the time it works. If often says unknown error or problem with application. The software is up to date. What can I try? Thank you

The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device. Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click File>Transfer Purchases

Recenly I was trying to play fun run and kept saying Internet has been disconnected but I would check the wifi and would be fine now it won't let me download apps or open the ones that need wifi I can't even update any of them without it saying unknown error

Apple appears to be having trouble with the iTunes Store servers right now. Wait for them to fix it.

Brett,
Well done getting the wireless network secured.
You have to precede the (hex) password with a '$' in Mac OS, to tell the Internet Connect dialog box that you are keying a hex password (rather than ASCII). This is because the Mac has detected that the network is WEP protected, and leaves it to you to decide how you want to key the password.
As an alternative, in Internet Connect (or from the AirPort icon menu), you can elect to join an "Other" network. If you select your network again, it'll come up with "WEP Password" as the option of Wireless Security. You can change this to "WEP 40/128-bit hex" and then not have to precede your password with the '$'.
Alternatively, you could tell us the make and model of your wireless router and we can tell you how to set, and use an ASCII password. From your 10-character hex password, we can see that you're using 40/64-bit WEP. Non-Apple routers can be a bit fussy when using ASCII passwords with 40-bit WEP (don't worry, this is also true for Windows PC's using 40-bit WEP too), but we can talk you through it.
As a final alternative, as you have such a whizzy Mac, as long as your wireless router supports it, you could use WPA security, and never have to worry about ASCII / hex / '$', etc. Older Macs (particularly original AirPort cards - not AirPort Extreme - and OS9) were limited to 40-bit WEP.

I don't understand why I can't change password lik...

Extremely mad. NO IDEA WHY I CAN'T CHANGE PASSWORD LIKE "lajiskype" or "horribleskype."

The apps are free with iOS 7 if you purchased a new device after September 2013. The apps do not come free just because you are running iOS 7 now. Did you purchase or receive a new iPad recently?
If you did, are you using the same Apple ID to get the apps that you used to activate the iPad? If you are, sign out of your ID, restart your iPad, sign in again and go back to the App Syore and see if the apps show up as free.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad and go back to the settings and sign in again.

I can't install iO6 update, it keeps saying an error occurred. I deleted lots and I now have 3.5GB available but it still won't update to iOS6. Any ideas why? Thanks

Hi,
I can't seem to install iOS 6 update, it keeps saying an error occurred. I deleted lots off my phone and I now have 3.5GB available but it still won't update to iOS 6. Any ideas why?
Thanks

9.2.3 is not compatible with Mavericks. You'll need to go to the App Store and download the iPhyoto 9.5 version. It will be free. Move your current iPhoto version to the Trash bin and try the App Store again.
OT

Would anyone know why I can't update my apps? It keeps telling me to log in?

I Only tried deleting the aps cause someone on here suggested it, but that's not possible, Apple won't let me delete the App Store.
If you know why I may not be able to update my apps, any info would be appreciated.
thanx
You don't delete the App Store. That's where you get your apps. It's not a delectable app.
You delete the app that needs an update. Then you redownload the app from the App Store.
Example: I'm trying to update 'Angry Birds'. But I can't seem to update it for some reason. So, I delete the Angry Birds app, then go to the App Store and search for it again (or go into 'Updates > Purchased') and download a fresh copy.

HT1338 can't seem to download apps keep getting unknown error eventhough I have reset my apple id password repeatedly itunes have no problem

I can't seem to download apps from the app store. I keep getting unknown error eventhough I have reset my apple id password repeatedly. With itunes I have no problem. This is VERY frustrating to say the least.

Because too much time has passed I can't edit this into the prior comment, but here is the info regarding reverting to iTunes 11.0.2 (assuming you do have a time machine backup) from https://discussions.apple.com/message/22057703#22057703

Repairing permissions doesn't fix it.
I reverted to the previous version, 11.0.2.
1. Quit the new crash-prone iTunes.
2. Delete the app.
3. Restore v. 11.0.2 with Time Machine.
4. In your iTunes folder look for a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries", find the latest one.
5. In the iTunes folder itself you'll see "iTunes Library.itl", delete it (or compress it and save a copy for later just in case.
6. Copy the newest .itl file in Previous iTunes Libraries to the iTunes folder and rename it "iTunes Library.itl".
7. Launch the older version of iTunes.
My crashing has seemed to have ceased with a revert to an older version. I noticed today that the newer crashing iTunes had been launched for hours but not playing anything, when I played internet radio it crashed within 5mins, fed up I reverted to an older version.
Btw, a simpler way to do this is to revert to older iTunes app, then hold Option when it launches and choose an older library.

TS1424 Can't sign into the iTunes store because of "unknown error", but my password and email is correct

That's basically it
I have the right info, but it just says "Unknown Error"
I can sign into the apple website alright, just not the store

i think what i did was instead of clicking the little button that has your email to sign into your account, i instead clicked "redeem" on the iTunes store homepage ((cause i wanted to redeem an itunes gift card)) which asked me to sign in, but that time my details worked?? idk but yeah if you try that it might work!

After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

Got it! Thanx. What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

42nato,
You may try the list (skip 5) in this case).
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

TS1368 When i use my itunes password on my ipad2 i get "unknown error"

On my ipad2 when i am in itunes and trying to download a show or song, when prompted for my password i enter it and get "unknown error"
Please help

Quite often, when you get the "unknown error" message, this can resolve it, so give it a try.
Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
