Can't Sync, Can't Find Solution

I got an error message that my drivers were hosed and to reinstall itunes.  Doesn't seem to cause a problem, but I download the new version.  The error message keeps appearing, but there doesn't seem to be any impact to my playing songs at work.  A couple of weeks later, I buy $30 worth of music and sync, and sync fails.  I don't get an error message, just a never ending sync status.  No way to tell what's happening except it is stuck on a song.  I go to the forums and other people have had the same issue for different reasons, but apparently the song it says it's stuck on is irrelevant.  One suggestion is to deinstall itunes completely and reinstall.  This seems to be perhaps what the error message wanted me to do as well, so I go to the web and deinstall per the instructions except for one detail, there is no way to delete the en.lproj file.  It says it's in use and no matter what I do I cannot delete it.  I look for help in these forums and find most issues related to this file unresolved or unanswered.  So I know I got a serious problem and reinstalling probably isn't going to work, but there's no suggestions, so I gave it a go.  Reinstalled itunes with no errors.  Opened itunes and all music and playlists are in tact.  Play a song, it plays.  Go to sync, and sync fails again.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Define "everything". The iPhone is designed to sync to _one and only one_ iTunes Library for media content (music, videos, photos, etc.). For contacts, calendars, bookmarks, you can sync to multiple computers. So, if your 'everything' includes music, etc., then start accepting - Apple has limited the iPhone to one computer for that type of content (and connecting to another computer results in the deletion of the content currently on the iPhone).

    Hello Wyodor,
    thanks for your reply on my question.
    You are wright the index file is 308 KB.
    And offcourse that I delete my files and documents is not an Iweb problem, but because my English is not that good, that I thougt I try to tell the whole story, and hope people can read trough the lines.
    Why I didn't use Iweb to upload to the server is because the server company recommanded to use file zilla. And I am a nobody with this kind of things, so I did exactly what they tell me to do.
    No, i did not make a backup of Iweb and the domain file, but reading other messages on this forum showed me that I can maybe try to make empty the cashfile (?)
    and otherwise I have bad luck and have to make my website again. Offcourse I have a lot of examples from all the pages (copied from the local map to my USB stick) and my website is aprox. 15 Mb, (not so big) so it will cost me a few nigths.
    But I'm still hoping on a miracle :-)

  • After using Firefox 4.0.1 for 2 weeks, still can't find solutions to these questions...

    After using Firefox 4.0.1 on Win7 x64 for almost two weeks, I still have the
    following questions/problems, for which I just can't find the solutions. Please help.
    (1)
    Is there a way to change the shape of the tabs to resemble real tabs, sort of like those tabs shown in the picture attached with the first reply I posted below.
    (2)
    I notice that when there are more than 6 tabs, only the current tab has a close button.
    Can there be a close button on every tab, no matter how many tabs are on the tab strip?
    (3)
    When you drag a file ( .html, .jpg, etc) from Windows Desktop or Windows Explorer and then drop it into Firefox, the file will be opened in the current tab.
    Can it be opened in a new tab?
    (4)
    Is there a convenient way to select multiple images on the same web page and open them all, each one in a new tab, with just one simple action, e.g., a toolbar button click, a keyboard shortcut, a mouse gesture, etc. ?
    (5)
    [ I asked this question a few days ago, but still got no answer. ]
    After the currently active tab is closed, I want the previously active tab to be displayed automatically, no matter what its position is on the tab strip, and no matter if it has any kind of relation with the closed tab. Just previously active.
    Can that be achieved?
    (6)
    Although "Use small icons" in "Customize Toolbar" is not selected, I still feel the icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar are too small. Can the size of those Boookmarks Toolbar icons be increased (scaled up)?
    Just the Bookmarks Toolbar icons. The other toolbars don't matter.

  • Can't Find Solution for Could not find Digital Editions folder

    I have checked many posts but I cannot get my ADE to work.  I get the message "Could not find Digital Editions folder."  I am running Windows 7 Enterprise.  I have tried several solutions but the things they are talking about do not exist on my computer (D drive for instance).  Can someone please, please, please help me or either direct me to the proper answer....

    I don't know much about your efforts from your email - such as what you did
    to install ADE and when, and whom you're talking to about your problem (ADE
    or Microsoft).  So, I'll have to wing an answer - and I hope it helps!
    When ADE installs, it sets up an Adobe Digital Editions folder, which
    contains the software and, by default, is installed on Drive C.  If you
    elected to install the software, but did not complete the installation, Win
    7 will show you an icon but won't have the software to back it up.  On your
    desktop, right-click on the ADE icon, and click on Properties at the bottom
    of the drop-down window.  A small window should appear with the location of
    the software.  If it's empty, ADE was not installed properly. It should show
    you a drive and folder.
    So, if it's there, then what's next, you say.  Something is wrong with the
    registry if Win 7 won't open ADE and it shows up in the icon properties.

  • ITunes opens by itself, can't find solution

    I'm running iTunes 11.1.5 on my MacBook Pro with the 10.9.2 OS X, 2.53 Ghz Intel Core i5 processor
    iTunues is auto-launching several times per day - and driving me crazy.  I don't have any devices turned on.  Auto-sync is turned off, even when I have the devices plugged in.  I can be doing anything from using MS Word for Mac to checking email on Safari, Chrome or even Firefox and all of the sudden, iTunes launches.
    I don't have iTunes Help installed as a startup item, so that can't be it.
    I've read through the forums as much as possible, but almost all of the nuggets of advice are about having the devices plugged in (which I don't), turning off auto-sych (it's not on) or even checking the widgets.  I don't have the iTunes Widget installed and don't ever use the Widgets. 
    Does anyone have a solution?

    Hi, I started having this problem a yesterday. I watch movies on my TV via the mini display port of my macbook pro and have to move the mac next to the tv (my friend has borrowed my hdmi extension lead and not brought it back yet!) While browsing the forums I saw that someone made mention that the 1/8 inch audio socket has some sort of magnetic sensor to determine whether the jack is optical (plastic) or a standard (metal) audio and it might have something to do with that. My macbook was sat on an old speaker (not in use so I didn't think it would affect my computer), so I have moved it off the speaker in case the magnets in the speaker drivers were causing a problem with the audio socket sensor. It appears to have worked (I did only move it 30 minutes ago however).
    Do you have any speakers close to your computer? If so maybe moving it might help.

  • Can't find solution to back up error -402653081, can anyone help?

    Was trying to update and backup an iPod touch. Received an error message stating error occurred during back up -402653081. Can anyone help with this?

    susanthehuman said in macrumors.com:
    "I started removing my apps in batches (like the person above, I was unable to tell which app was in process when the backup failed). I managed to remove all non-apple apps from the device - and all apple apps that had not been in the device on delivery - and the backup still failed with the above error.
    Then I power cycled it - I had done this at the beginning of the problem, with no success, but when I power cycled it after all the app removals guess what, it worked.
    Sadly, by that point I had pretty much wiped everything anyway by removing the apps, so I'm basically starting over. Such is life. But at least it works, and the features are nifty."
    That's probably not the ideal solution but at least it worked

  • WRT54G slow wireless / internetconnection - same ol problem can't find solution

    Well I have read alot of posts about this but nothing has helped.  I have the WRT54G v.6 w/ latest firmware.  Wired connection i get about 22mbps when checking on a speekcheck site, wireless doesn't go above 8mpbs.  Now i know wireless is alot slower, but it does state 54mbps.  I know I will never get that fast but it should go over 10mbps.  I think there is some setting I'm missing.  Any suggestions / help is appreciated.
    I have tried:
    -Changing channels
    -Changing the MTU
    -disabling all firewall programs
    -update firmware
    -no other 2.4ghz phones or devices around
    -changing the settings in "advance wireless configuration" to specs linksys chat suggested
    -chatted with linksys numerous times.
    I'm running WINXP Home.  Any help is appreciated!
    -matt

    Hi.. Well there would be some difference in the wired speed and wireless speed. Thats beacuse packets send on wireless network has heavy payload (header and footer), which involves lots of protocols. The payload also depends upon the wireless security implimented on the network. This may results in the difference in the connection speed (54mbps) and throughput speed (10 mbps). You can try to reduce the Fragmentation and RTS thresholds to 2304 on that router. Also try to upgrade the firmware of the router and disable the firewalls and spyware on the PC.

  • Problems installing CS4, Adobe help not helping, can't find solution in forums

    When I try to install CS4 (on Windows Vista machine), I get the error "Uninstall Color Profiles Rollback Preventing the Installation".  Offered two solutions, I did both, but wouldn't allow me to cut/paste 10 files from the system32/spool/drivers/color folder.  I tried to go into the registry, it said, "some permissions could not be changed".  On the forums, it said some files could be linked to monitor or printers...I don't have a printer installed currently, but what am I supposed to do for a monitor?  I'm guessing they are not allowing me to move them because they are in use, but I don't know how to "unuse" them without not using the monitor.  I tried safe mode, didn't work...any suggestions?

    this is a poorly formatted page (at least for me) but there is help offered here: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-uninstallcolorprofilesrollback-e35c3ecb-5fd a-49e1.html

  • Can't find solution to fixing ipod, please help! :)

    my ipod randomly froze and then turned off with about 3/4 battery the other day
    after trying to restart it, it simply flashed between the apple logo and then the screen with the sad ipod icon and the link to apple support
    it does not respond to any attempts to restart it, whether or not set up to charge,it only flashes these two images back and forth.
    it only responds to the usb cable charge, not the outlet charger - and through that it puts up the 'charging icon' but it is stationary and doesn't seem to be actually charging the ipod - i left it there for several hours with no effect
    also, itunes and the my pc won't recognize it.
    is this a battery issue or maybe something someone else's ipod went through that they know the solution to?
    thanks soo much in advance to anyone who has any help!!
    ipod photo (with color display)   Windows XP  

    I had the same problem.  It was because I had maxed out my iPod's capacity.  Once I deleted some things off my iPod to free up space I was able to drag my songs onto my iPod without any problem.  Good luck.  Hope this solves your problem.

  • I purchased LASER JET PRO M1132 MFP yesterday, installed and I can't find the "Solution Center".

    I can't find "Solution Center" , so when I scan I can file the document or do nothing, just print.
    Please help me.
    Thanks

    Hey Maria,
    Did you install the full feature driver pack when you installed the printer? Sounds like you may have installed a basic driver that only allows for printing. Let me know what operating system you are using and I can link you to the appropriate driver.
    Thanks

  • Map and weather app can't find location after a trip to China. How to fix this?

    I have seen question similar to mine but can't find solution to it. I've try hard reset and reset location setting, but still doesn't work. Anyone know how to deal with this?

    iOS upadates are NOT in the App Store. Also, 1st gen iPads do not run iOS 6. 5.1.1 is the most recent version for that model.
    You will need to connect the iPad to a computer running itunes in order to update form anything prior to 5.0. Update over WiFi wasn't available until 5.0.

  • A very simple scenario, but I can't find a solution

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone that runs IOS 4.1. It is synced with iTunes library at home which has all my music, video, podcasts, apps, etc. Occasionally when I'm at work I come across an audio clip or video clip that I would like to save on an iPhone to watch during the commute back. I am reasonably tech savvy, but I can't find a solution to accomplish this task. Since iPhone is synced with the library at home, it cannot be synced with the iTunes library at work without it being wiped and reinitialized. I have found partial solution for video files using the (now unavailable) VLC app, which allows transfer of FLV or MP4 files, although since hardware acceleration is not available to VLC app, watching any video above 480p is not possible. VLC app does not accept MP3 files, so I'm out of luck with these.
    In the past I used non-IOS iPods and had no problems syncing it with library at home and being able to manually add music/videos from iTunes library at work.
    I'm surprised that the device/ecosystem that is so user friendly suddenly cannot be used for such a simple task. All of the content I am talking about is DRM free and in open formats like MP3.
    This limitation of only one iTunes library being allowed to add/manage content on an IOS device seems very not user friendly to me. I understand the need to protect content, but again - I am only talking about non-purchased publicly available content like MP3 files of programs published by radio stations.
    I have a VPN connection between home and work, but iTunes does not allow syncing via anything but USB. I have even tried to find some sort of "Virtual USB" port that would allow me to connect iPhone at work and have computer at home see it as USB connected device, but could not find any solution for this on OS X.
    Am I missing something trivial or is it impossible to add an MP3 file to an iPhone from anywhere but one iTunes library?
    Thank you.

    I have finally been able to solve this problem, albeit through an unorthodox method.
    I have placed my iTunes library folder on a NAS I have at home and configured both home Mac Pro and Macbook Pro at work to use the same library. Since I have VPN, the file path is the same for both machines, so they both now can access the same library and sync to the phone from it.
    Now when at work I come across something I want to drop to the iPhone for listening on my way back home, I add the file to the library (it travels over the VPN to my home NAS) and then sync (it travels back over the same VPN to my iPhone)
    Since there's about 20mbit bandwidth, the speed and response is acceptable.
    The problem is solved.
    I wonder, why Apple had to put this strange limitation of only one library being able to sync to the iPhone? Is the rationale behind this decision documented anywhere?

  • ITunes can't find apps on iPod Touch and doesn't sync album artwork

    Ugh.  Here I go again.
    I have an iPod Touch (4th gen), 2010 MacBook Pro, all the latest operating systems and updates. 
    My iPod Touch crashed a bit and so I wanted to sync it again (using the USB cable, not wirelessly).
    (1) Suddenly, there was no music on the iPod Touch.  I managed to get that fixed.
    (2) After a couple of syncs, I was repeatedly getting the message that the iPod Touch apps "could not be synced because the apps could not be determined."  A couple of plugging and unpluggings allowed iTunes to "find" the apps, but this is weird.
    (3) And now, what's bugging me -- and this happened a year or so ago -- very little of the album artwork synced over to the iPod Touch.  I have 600-800 albums.  All of the artwork is correct on iTunes.  About 10% of the artwork transferred over to the iPod Touch.  (Then I synced my iPad, and all the artwork is correct on the iPad.)
    If I remember correctly from last year, eventually -- after many successive syncs -- the album artwork made its way correctly over to the iPod Touch, and maybe I'll hope for that this time.
    Does anyone have a more direct solution?  Checking and unchecking some boxes on some syncs?  (It takes a good chunk of time to sync over my music, so I don't really have to time to delete and sync repeatedly just as shots in the dark.
    Any ideas?  All thoughts welcome. Thank you!

    Taking off all the music and then putting it back on took care of the album art, but I'm still getting all kinds of funky behavior -- iTunes can't find the apps, then it can't find the iPod altogether, and it's adding duplicate songs somewhere.  It said it was going to load 3,232 songs, but I ended up with more than 3,400.  Weird.
