    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Can anyone help me connect my Macbook Air to a SAMSUNG TV.  When I follow the basic instructions (Thunderbolt to HDMI connection) the screen on my computer goes grey and an error message appears inviting me to press any button to restart the Macbook.  When I do this nothing happens.  Only when I disconnect the computer from the TV does the Macbook allow me to login. The TV does not receive any signal from the Macbook even though I know the HDI port works fine.  Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?  Do I need to enable something on the Macbook?

    An update...
    I downloaded Apple's (rather large!) list of software updates today, and I was finally able to recognize my iPod again. I did a restore using the iPod updater from 06-2006, and all seemed to work OK. (I'm afraid to try the new one again!)
    Then I tried to re-load my music library from iTunes, and got stuck. It froze up after a while and wouldn't go any further.
    When I disconnected my iPod from my computer, I find 2 podcasts and nothing else, though iTunes told me it had transferred 600+ songs. Those 2 podcasts do play fine, and the basic iPod software all seems to be intact.
    So -- anyone get through this connection problem and have any ideas to share??

  • I plug my ipod into my computer itunes pops up with error message "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" suggests I unplug and try again or uninstall itunes and reinstall nothing works. What should i do?

    I plug my ipod into my computer itunes pops up with error message "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" suggests I unplug and try again or uninstall itunes and reinstall nothing works. What should i do?

    summarizing:
    iPod nano (what version iOS BEFORE update?)
    downloaded music
    updated iPod to iOS 8.1.2
    Windows 7 PC
    plug-in iPod to PC
    error message from iTunes on the PC "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" ⬅[quoted from your original post] (+ suggested troubleshooting steps)
    un-plug > re-plug iPod (how many times?)
    iTunes un-installed from PC (?)
    iTunes RE-installed to PC (?)
    error message repeats(?)
    searched "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" site:support.apple.com with ZERO results - pretty strange that the support site wouldn;t know an iTunes generated error message (?)  EDIT - had an "aha! moment when using a fresh Google search page and 'suggested' CANNOT
    then "Ipod detected but can't be identified properly" site:discussions.apple.com had ONE result = Can't connect to iTunes with ipod touch (-50 error) - NO REPLIES
    CANNOT instead of can't [ tsk tsk ]
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

    The search bar can be very valuable...........
    In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad?  If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

    Okay. We'll try a different utility.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Whenever I connect my iPad 2 to my PC, then open iTunes, I get an error message telling me that iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close.

    I recently updated my iPad 2 to iOS 5 beta 2 and updated iTunes to the second beta. Now whenever I connect my  iPad toitunes,it instantly pops up with an error message saying "iTunes has stopped working. A problemcaused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program." iTunes still mdetects my other two iPhones and iPod touch on 3.1.3, 4.1, and 4.2.1. Also, iTunes will recognize my iPad just fine on the administrator account.

    You are using ADE on Windows or Mac ? and their versions ??
    Please restart your machine and try once again.
    Thanks

    A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
    Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially. 
    I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
    You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.

  • Having trouble downloading itunes on my computer. i keep getting a error message that reads: apple sync notifier.exe- entry point not found.

    Hello, can anyone help me out there? Im having trouble downloading itunes on my computer.
    Ikeep getting a error message reading:
    #1  applesyncnotifer.exe- entry point not found.
    #2  the procedure entry point sqlite3-wal-checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library. sqlite3.d11.
    #3  service 'apple mobile device' (apple mobile device)
          failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Restart the programme all should be well
    In case that your OS is (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Now paste it in the folder  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.

  • Whenever I try to sync my iPod Touch 5th gen with iTunes I get an error message saying "The iPod "*****" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start". Is there any way I can fix this?

    Whenever I try to sync my iPod Touch 5th gen with iTunes I get an error message saying "The iPod "*****" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start". Is there any way I can fix this?

    B-rock, thanks for posting the above.  I actually have the same issue, running Windows XP and I don't have that backup location, \Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\.  When I go to Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .
    I have the latest update, 5.0.1 and I have the iPod Touch 3rd gen.
    I have tried removing itunes and all that is associated with it then reinstalling and keep getting the same message.  I've reset my ipod thinking that would help but still, no backup.
    In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.
    What am I doing wrong, can you help? 
    Thank you!

  • When i connect my ipod shuffle to itunes i get an error message the ipod cannot be synced, the required disk cannot be found  anyone have this happen?

    When i connect my ipod shuffle to itunes i get an error message the ipod cannot be synced, the required disk cannot be found  anyone have this happen? How do i get past it?

    I seem to recall that this may be cause by overloading the USB bus (lack of power to go around).  Shut down your computer.  Reset the iPod shuffle using this procedure.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Disconnect ALL peripheral USB devices, including keyboard and mouse.  Power up the computer.  If you need your mouse, connect it and launch iTunes.  Connect the iPod shuffle to a direct USB port and try the sync again.  See if there is any difference.
