Can't Sync My iPod ! Help Please

well ... i just got my new iPod 2nd gen of 4gb .. and i cant sync .. windows recognize the nano .. but when im gonna start sync the nano goes to the menu screen and an error appears on the sync screen .. cant sync ..
please help me

OK, I'm having the same problem. The error message reads (-50) "an unkown error has occoured" apple support has been on no help so far...
Basically every time I try to save new settings in itunes and hit apply this message comes up, and then another "ipod cannot be updated disk cannot be read or written to" itunes freezes up then an "unkonwn error has occoured (-50)" error message a minute later.
Then when I reconnect it it says that no folders to download has been saved. I've tried to "enable disk usage" but that dosen't save.
This problem was temporaily eleviated when I downloaded 1.0.2 but then when I had to reset my ipod because it froze up, it wouldn't function agian. Just when I thought I had the problem solved. The same **** frustrating cycle.
I thought maybe downloading 1.0.2 agian would help but it reads that is already downloaded.
I'm stumped guys, please help.

  • Screen Cracked - Can't sync contacts. Help please.

    So I accidently cracked the screen on my phone - because I'm smart like that.
    I need to send it off for repairs but the only problem being I can't sync my contacts with Ovi without use of the phone screen. I've attached my phone to the computer via usb but can't work out a way of actually seeing my contacts list. They don't appear to be on my file directory for memory card or phone. Some of my contacts aren't saved to sim but saved to phone so I'm going to lose a lot of contacts I can't get again if I don't find a way to get them off the phone/memory card.
    Any help appreciated!

    Yes, that is exactly what we tried:

  • Help please:How do I solve "Unknown Error -53 Can't Sync (My) Ipod"

    my Laptop was stolen.. it had my iTunes on it.. I have another computer so I down load iTunes but it does not seem to want to recognise my iPod saying "Unknown error -53 Can't Sync (My) iPod. Help appreciated. Friendly shake hands. R

    Thank you, but I did that. I de-selected and then re-selected but because the 13019 still won't allow the sync, all it did was completely delete everything on my Ipod!  I now have no songs on my Ipod when at least before, I had all my songs but the new 12 songs!  I'm freaking! 

  • 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

    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
