Sync error code (-54)

I get the following error code when attempting to sync my 5s on my HP computer running Win 8:
-The iPhone 5s cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-54).
I purchased AppleCare when I bought this phone and after multiple phone calls with AppleCare the last contact I had, I was told "We will review the diagnostic files you uploaded, and I will call you back." That was three weeks ago, and after sending two follow up emails, now the supervisor at AppleCare has not and does not call back to resolve. (I think AppleCare is no longer the value it once was).
Has anyone else had the sync error code (-54)?
How did you resolve it?

On the Windows version of iTunes, error -54 means a general IO error occurred that can be caused by many different things: a file is corrupt, a file is locked, or an .m4a file could not be converted to a lower bit rate.

Why does iTunes keep showing a -54 error when I sync my iPad? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114
Error -54 possibly related to Touch Copy - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114 - cleared by deleting preferences on iPad.

cgoodall,
Let's ensure that you can safely back up your information. Does this error appear when attempting to sync your information? Have you tried syncing your contacts through our website? http://bit.ly/1gEezVc From your phone, when going to Settings>Accounts & Sync>Backup Assistant Plus is Contacts selected?

Verizon cant fix Error Code:Addr.Vcnt.

I have been a customer of Verizon for years and I think I have had it. My texting is completely unreliable. The problems seems intermittent, sometimes my texts work fine but this morning I cant get anything through.
I keep getting this: Error Code:Addr.Vcnt.
I have used the default texting app and tried third party apps. I even spent 200 dollars to upgrade my phone. I have the same EXACT problem on both phones. I have been to a Verizon store and I have called customer service. Simply put, they have no idea how to fix the issue. Honestly I am not even sure they will recognize the issue actually exists.
I know I just upgraded my contract but to be honest I am ready and will to pay the extreme cancellation fee just to go to a different company where their service actually works....

hi,
i purchased a Verizon Factory Unlocked Samsung Galaxy note 3 some months ago.
whenever i sent messages, it fails and theres this error "Addr. Vcnt."
Im currently living in Pakistan.
i urgently need to solve this problem because its constantly bugging me.
Please help me out,

Thanks

TS3694 How can sync error code 1723 be resolved?

Unknown error code 1723 prevents from syncing Ipad with Itunes.
How can it be resolved?

I've had this same problem, and after several tries I finally solved it. It seems to be related with a corruption of the iPhoto Library:
1.- Quit iTunes.
2.- Open Finder, and go to wherever your iPhoto library is stored (usually ~/Pictures).
3.- Right-click on the iPhoto Library and select "Show package contents"
4.- Delete the "iPod Photo Cache" folder
5.- Close the finder window
6.- Open iPhoto. It might take some time for it to reload the library, but it's ok.
7.- When iPhoto finishes loading the library and you can browse your photos, close iPhoto
8.- Open iTunes, goto your device's Photo tab, and make shure the Sync photos options is UNCHECKED
9.- Sync your device
10.- After the sync finishes, CHECK the sync photo option. It will ask if the photos already in the device should be overwritten. I anserwered yes
11.- Select which photos, events, albums or faces you want to sync,
12.- Sync your device again, and it should do it, including your photos
Hope this helps.

Desktop sync error code 0x80043ac9

I am receiving this error during syncing on the address book sync. I have followed the steps as outlined in KB01451 for troubleshooting. The resulting tif.log when opened with notepad does indicate an error. This error is not clearly evident so i am not able to indentify the error to correct. Does anybody have a solution?

This error comes up for me during calendar sync, which many people seem to have.
Here is how I fixed the sync error, which was due to corrupt data on my BB, not outlook:
I opened calendar on Blackberry.
Hiighlite a date say a week ago. Select BB key and select 'delete prior'. I had to do this a couple of times to delete data. Interestingly it did not delete all previous appointments from the date selected, but it did fix the sync issue. Hope this helps.

Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
Hope this information helps ...
