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.

"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.

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.

Hi Centreless,
If you have difficulty with your iPad not being able to connect to iTunes in order to sync, you may want to try the troubleshooting steps in this article -

"An error occurred while restoring from the backup.Files can't be restored"

My 4 month old MacBook Pro 15" running 10.6.2 lobotomized itself and I had to have a new HD put in it. I backed up the old one w/ TM on an external HD. I've tried (by the book, and with direct verbal guidance from the Help People at Apple) to restore the system and files but every time it gets to 10.2% in the restoration process and then I get this message: "An error occurred while restoring from the backup. Please restart." and under the frozen progress bar is the chilling line: "Files can't be restored." I've tried restoring from several dates on the TM backup list but it always stops at 10.2% completion. Help!

Hi.
Start by booting from your SL install disc, and selecting Utilities from the menubar, but before going on to +Restore System from Backups,+ instead select +Disk Utility.+
Make +*absolutely certain+* that your internal HD has the GUID *Partition Map Scheme* and the +Mac OS Extended (Journaled)+ Format (unless you're sure it should be +Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, journaled).+
Then do a +*Repair Disk+* (not permissions) on your Time Machine drive.
If that succeeds, quit Disk Utility, then continue with the full restore (per #14 in the FAQ).
But if that finds errors it can't fix, it's possible that +Disk Warrior+ can fix them. It's about $100, and is probably a good long-term investment, but there's no guarantee.
If all else fails, go back to Disk Utility and erase your internal HD, then install OSX. When your Mac restarts, use +Setup Assistant+ to transfer your users, apps, settings, and data from your backups (see #19 in the FAQ).
Then download and instal the "combo" update to get back to 10.6.2. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959 (or http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1017 for 10.6.3).
Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility afterwards.

Error occurred while restoring from the TimeMachine backup

I have an brand new HD that I want to restore from TimeMachine.
Erased and partitioned this brand new drive. Created 2 partitions and formatted as “OS Extended Journaled/ GUID.”
Did a “Command R recovery boot” and went through the steps to backup from TM to my new HD.
         15 seconds into the restoration process Msg. reads:
“Error occurred while restoring from the backup.
Restart your computer and then try restoring again.”
Trouble shooting:
Luckily my original files and initial boot drive that TM was backing up from remains fine and I performed some more TM back ups as well as a TM backup onto another drive as well.
I even tried restoring to another empty drive with older backups and backups off of another HD and got the same error message.
All my BU’s and BU attempts have been within 10.7.3 on the same MP.
Thank you in advance for any help!!

These are the four hard drives I am using for troubleshooting:
1. Internal new 1TB drive
2. External erased and reformatted 500GB firewire drive
3. Internal original 500GB drive designated for TimeMachine with
~200Gigs of successful backup (Including entire bootdrive)
4. External erased and reformatted 300GB drive that I told
TimeMachine to back up to for testing purposes.
I have only erased and reformatted the first 2 empty drives to use as a future boot drive once I can finally restore from my TimeMachine files to one of them successfully.
My troubles all started when I couldn’t get my cpu to boot from my initial boot drive. That’s what has put me on this track. I have since repaired that boot drive with DiskWarrior to perfect order.
Through a lot of my trouble shooting, I have left that initial boot drive in but have since taken it out. I don’t have lion installed on any other drive. Again, my 2 test drives are empty.
I don’t know how long this old boot drive will remain in perfect order and am glad I have found that I cant use TimeMachine on this side of needing it desperately.
Pondini- Thank you again for hangin' in there with me. I think I understand your last recommendation:
         Do I load a new copy of Lion from this location?:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12&ls=1
The suggestion of “coping the installer” is to have a hard copy like I used to in SnowLeopard etc. for a faster future install?

Why am getting a "error occurred while restoring from backup" message when restoring using Time Machine?

Hello
I recently made a Bootcamp partition with Windows 7 (which incidentally went absolutely fine). In that partition I wanted to split it for some certain files, but on doing so I appear to have completely tanked my hard drive - I've pretty much wiped the entire thing. I read afterwards that creating new partitions within Windows is a big no no Bootcamp wise, and this wasn't something I knew about before. Lesson learnt!
Either way, I had a backup and though it would be simple enough to restore from that backup, but about 2% in it it pops up "an error has occurred while restoring from backup, please restart and try again". After a few tries, this didn't work, so now I'm worried that my backup is corrupt.
I'm not sure why the backup would be corrupt as this was made with no problems as normal.
I've already tried the standard restore with no success (obviously), and I've also tried re-installing the OS up to the first boot, then trying to restore (thinking that the error was a result of a missing Recovery HD, which the re-install would create) and this was with no success also.
My final idea was to just erase the drive and re-install the OSX, and then when it prompts me, restore the files from the Time Capsule.
Am I onto the right idea, or is there another way around this? I'm just very worried that my backup has become corrupted for some reason and I've lost everything on there.
Specs are:
MacBook Pro Mid 2012 OS X 10.8.5;
Bootcamp 5 (Windows 7);

I'd agree. As long as you've gone this far, I'd probably start from scratch with your MBP, back up any critical files on it, wipe the whole thing, and do a nice clean reinstall.
I'd try to repair the backup drive with disk utilty and then see if you can restore the minimum of essential documents from it to the MBP. If Disk Utility can't fix it there is a small chance that a third party utility like diskwarrior or techtool could repair it. DiskWarrior 4 - The Disk Utility for Mac Disk Repair, Mac Directory Repair, Mac Disk Recovery, Mac Data Recovery or Techtool Pro 7
If you can get your essential documents off the backup drive, then I'd wipe it and put a new time machine backup on it. If that doesn't work, then I'd replace the drive.

ORA-20100: Error occurred while parsing (from xml in custom schema)

Hi,
I am using xmlParser and xmlDom to extract information from xml document. My whole process works perfectly in the APPS schema on the Oracle e-Business Suite. The minute I move it to a custom schema (ie new User) I get this error.
ORA-20100: Error occurred while parsing: Element '' used but not declared.
This only occures at runtime. I am pretty sure I grant the correct SELECT and EXECUTE privileges to this Schema. If I hadn't then it would not compile. It compiles without errors on the Database.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Dave

I just tried this again. I have Oracle9i 9.0.1.1 on my Windows
2000 laptop.
I went to OTN and downloaded the XDK 9.0.2D for PL/SQL
I used loadjava to load the \oracle\ora90\rdbms\jlib\xdb_g.jar
file into the database (shouldn't have had to do this) into the
XMLBOOK account. Filed a bug for needing to do this by hand.
I ran "xdkload.bat" with xmlbook/xmlbook as the username/password
I made sure the proxy server name was set correctly in the
example (if you don't need a proxy server, comment out that line
in the parse_xml_news.sql example, or that could cause your
error!!)
I ran the parse_xml_news.sql script, and I get:

An unknown error occured while printing (from Firefox)

When I try to print from web page I get a dialogue box "An unknown error occurred while printing". The printer works on websites when I use Internet Explorer. Also, if I copy the web page and paste it into a WordPerfect document, I can print a copy. This issue just started 2 or 3 weeks ago; I have not encountered this problem prior to this week. Please advise.

@sklein65
I thank you for your reply. My problem occurred when trying to print to the XPS printer, I found, that, if I disabled the UAC, the problem went away. You may want to give this a try. You can access you UAC by entering 'UAC' in the Window's Search Box. I had an additional problem with my 'Pinned' websites becoming unusable, I traced this down to Firefox version 24 (beta channel). I reverted back to v23.0 and I never had the problem, again. Note, that, all versions of v23.0 worked, the problem occurred when v24 was installed. I disabled all auto updating in Firefox.
