cant sync music,says the required disk can not be found

What are you trying to sync your iPad ot? Your question s a little misleading, meaning if you are out of the U.S. - that implies to me that you live in the U.S. and your computer is here, so once again - what are trying to sync to?
If you are trying to sync to another computer and I assume it would be your own computer - try another USB port on the computer. Before you attempt to sync again - Quit iTunes and reboot your computer.

Quit iTunes, reboot your computer, restart the iPad and then try again. Use another USB port on your computer as well.

HT1351 I'hve got ipod shuffle 3rd gen & i am not able to sync dat to my laptop it says, " The required file can not be found"

I have tried " Authorize this computer", " Sign in to istore"
none of these is hapening..
plaese help me out.

I have the exact same problem with my 1GB Nano. I've looked all over the internet at forums and such for the answer. Lots of the same problem, no solution. What's extremely strange is that I added 5 photos earlier after fiddling with it for about 30 minutes. When I took those photos out of the specified folder on my PC to add 3 new ones, Itunes wouldn't add the new photos. The new photos actually take up less space than the old ones did. I've messed with deleting the photo cache on both the Ipod and my PC specified folder with no luck. It still says there's not enough room on my Ipod, when in fact there is 70MB of free unused space according to both the Ipod and Itunes. So far none of the synching sites were any help. Once in a blue moon, I change some setting somewhere, update, eject the Ipod, and the photos appear on the Ipod. I plug it back in and Itunes agrees that the photos have transferred. I just don't understand it.

I restored my ipod, when I went to put everything back on it, I got a message that said, "an error writing to the device, can not sinc. Then it said the required disc can not be found. Now what do I do, I have all of this music and apps that I can't get

Before I restored my ipod, I backed it up then I updated and restored. The problem is when I went to put everything back on it, I got a message saying that an error writing to the device, can not sync. Then another message appeared saying that "the required disc can not be found. Now what do I do?

Try resetting the iPOd. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: 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.
- Also, delet the iPod Phot Cache folder for the second error. For its loation see:
iTunes: Photo sync creates iPod Photo Cache folder

Error occured while converting the file track #1 the required disk can't be found

I have old CDs, I have new CDs and I have a relatively new MacBook Pro (3 years old) running current software on 10.9.4 OSX Mavericks. My updates are good on my iTunes but it won't let me import ANY CDs that I OWN! Is this the new Apple and it's iTunes update?
Can we not legally put our CDs onto our phones or iPad/iPods any longer? Must I go garage sale-ing for a personal CD player? The code reads; "Error occured while converting the file track #1 the required disk can't be found". My cd drive is fine btw. It reads and shows on my desktop and will also play when I double click the CD icon and play the .aiff file.

I kind of have the suspicion if you were no longer allowed to put CDs on iPods it would be front page news, not something you alone would discover. Anyway, there would probably be a clear message to that effect rather than a technical error message. I would take the technical problem route first rather than suspect you have been targeted for persecution.
Have you restarted iTunes? Have you tried restarting your computer?
Personally I prefer third party rippers such as XLD and Max and you could certainly try one of those to at least isolate the issue to iTunes.

When Syncing, got error msg "iphone4 can not be synced as the required file can not be found", When Syncing, got error msg "iphone4 can not be synced as the required file can not be found"

i've upgraded to IOS5 and also my iMac to latest iTunes.
i now found Itunes frequently issued a error during syncing "iphone4 can not be synced as the required file can not be found". i have connected the iphone4 to my iMac using USB (i.e., wired). but without doing any thing further, i go to iTunes and just hit the button to "SYNC" the iphone4 again, it will work.
so, why am i getting that error usually first time around when i connect the iphone?

Hi folks. Am REALLY struggling here and hoping for some help. I too am constantly getting the 'iPhone can not be synced' message since upgrading to a new MacBook and trying to sync my iPhone 3GS. Have tried updating to latest iPhone software and hasn't helped. Have tried all the stuff mentioned above (dumping that file etc) and no luck. When I go to my sync page for photos, even if i un-tick the sync photos option altogether, this error keeps appearing. Very odd and very frustrating. Can't sync - seems to stall at last step of the process every time.
I'm guessing it is photo related as the pics on my iPhone are now all lowres and blurry, and it is asking for sync to iTunes to get high res images onto the phone.
Also have problem going the 'other way'! WHen I go to iPhoto on Mac and try to download new photos taken on iPhone.. I keep getting the message 'The following file could not be imported. The file is an unrecognized format."
help please

HT201413 I am receiving a message saying the iPod "TRACER's iPod" can not be synched. The required file can not be found. I ran the iTunes program repair and restarted both the computer and the iPod. Any suggestions on what else to try?

I am receiving a message saying the iPod "TRACER's iPod" can not be synched. The required file can not be found. I ran the iTunes program repair and restarted both the computer and the iPod. but still receive the same message. Any suggestions on what else to try?

That can sometimes be caused by a damaged ipod photo cache.
If you remove the current ipod photo cache, does that get you past the error?
For instructions on where to find it, see the following document:

the ipod pictur cache is found here on Windows
When you sync pictures to the iPod, your actual pix are not what gets loaded. A copy of the photo is created in a size and format that it knows will display well on the iPod. ( the format is "ithmb"?). These converted pix are stored in the iPod Photo Cache folder, and uploaded from there. Every folder you select to sync photos from will have an iPod Photo Cache folder at its top level.
Files are kept there indefinitely, to save conversion time if you ever need them again. But those cache folders can really grow...if you know that you're never again going to need a bunch of photos on your iPod, you can delete the iPod Photo Cache folder from their parent folder. If you delete a cache folder that contains photos that are on your iPod, the cache will be rebuilt (provided the original files still exist).

The required disk could not be found.

Attempting to write to the disk "iPod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
The iPod "iPod" could not be synced. The required disk could not be found.
Why is this happening? I've tried just about EVERYTHING to fix it. It happens when I sync my iPod. I've followed just about any relevant topics on the apple support site, but nothing helps. I've shut down any software, done the 5 r's, even reformatted my computer. I don't understand.

You should check your USBs to make sure there is nothing wrong with them.
Plug your iPod into the USB you would usually use for a regular charge.
(In Control Panel, due to versions of XP, you might not see the same interface as other users, in the top-left corner there should be a link that says "switch to classic view." This will give the same interface, regardless of what version of XP you are using.)
On Windows XP, go to Start>Control Panel>Performance and Maintenance>System>Hardware(tab)>Device Manager
Here you can check for updates, install/uninstall USB drivers, and preform diagnostics on your drivers.
Under your current computer, select the drop-down menu for Universal Serial Bus controllers. Depending on the Firmware of your Touch, under the USB controllers it will either show up as Apple Mobile Device USB Driver or Apple USB Mass Storage Device. Right click on Apple Mobile Device USB Driver and select "Update Driver" on the drop-down menu. This will give you the Hardware Update Wizard. Select Yes, this time only. Choose "Install the software automatically." (This option should alreasy be highlighted) Let the search finish. If updates are found, install them. If not click the back button on the bottom middle-left. Choose "Install from a list or specific location. Choose the "I will select the driver to install." In the install box, Apple Mobile Device USB and Digital Still Camera should pop up. Press next and let the wizard intstall updates. Click finish. Try to let your iPod charge for a while after this.

Can not synchronise my ipod with itunes. the required medium can not be found

Can not synchronise my ipod with itunes. I receive the message the required medium can not be found

Is it along the lines of the "required disk cannot be found?" What OS are you using and are you running the latest version of iTunes? I assume you have tried multiple USB ports as well as tried using a different USB sync cable to rule out a damaged/faulty cable?
Do you have any other USB devices plugged in while you try to sync your iPod?

TS1362 songs disappear from my library and it says the original file can not be found

for some reason the songs that i have on my library say they are there but when i go to play the song it says the orignial file can not be found and asks me to locate it. when i go to do that i cant find the file. what do i do?

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

File sharing in iTunes can't save file as says the required file can't be found

I have an app which records video surveys (Miituu). I export the responses within the app and then use the file sharing section of iTunes to save the exported folder onto the PC so that I can access the files. However, despite the exported survey showing in iTunes in the file sharing section and displaying a MB size every time I try to 'save to...' it comes up with an error saying
'xxx' could not be copied because an error occurred. The required file could not be found'
Any ideas?
