Corrupted when syncing from netbook

Every time I try to sync from my netbook I get corrupted files. Tracks skip, distort and pause randomly.
Trying to do a restore from the netbook last week completely bricked my iTouch, so I returned it to apple, got the replacement today and I'm getting exactly the same problem.
I've tried two different cables, every USB port on the netbook and all the iTunes diagnostics are coming up clean (including the sync tests). Syncing from my desktop works perfectly.
This is a huge deal because I'm moving soon and my netbook will be my only computer for a good long while. It's an Acer Aspire One AO532h. Anyone else had similar issues or know any fixes?
Thanks

I have the latest bios, and I seriously doubt it's a security program issue because everything seems to work perfectly (until you actually try to play a song). I connect the itouch, the netbook recognises it, it auto starts itunes and it's letting me sync normally...I'm just getting a ton of corruption on the files.
Any other ideas?

  • Some Contacts getting combined with others when syncing from google

    I am having an issue where some of my contacts are getting merged when syncing from google.
    For example I have 3 contacts:
    Company 1 dispatch which has two phone numbers  
    Company 2 dispatch which has two phone numbers  
    Company 3 dispatch which has two phone numbers   
    On my Pre, I see two entries in contacts:
    Company 1 dispatch which has two phone numbers  
    Company 2 dispatch which has four phone numbers  
    I can not search for company 3, but thier phone number appears under company 2.
    Any ideas, suggestions,etc

    Same thing happens for me, AND when syncing with more than one service  (ie google and facebook) my original contacts that I had entered into the phone prior to the synergy sync,   get deleted.  I had to take like 2 hours and create a new gmail account and add all of my contacts 1 by 1,  and then sync the phone.   VERY frustrating, and Im kind of annoyed that the pre doesn't work with Sprint's Mobile Sync.     
    Other than that I do love my Pre.  ;o) 

  • [RESOLVED] "Isolinux.bin missing or corrupt" when booting from USB.

    Just giving root cause explanation and resolution to closed topic:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=107241
    where "Isolinux.bin missing or corrupt" when booting from USB. I hope maybe someone will find it rather than closed topic 107241  :-(
    Windows DD and  unetbootin-windows are created for single ISO partition. That's why old Archlinux like 2010-05 will run.
    The newest one archlinux-2014.01.05-dual.iso will not work like that because there is UEFI pre-boot (two partitions). That's why it can't find then Isolinux.bin and report it's missing. Of course this kind of issue will appear on old motherboard without / old UEFI support as they can't understand bootstrap and real root fs later.
    unetbootin tool is partition driven so it can't do split well 32 UEFI + remaining root.
    Resolution:
    If you really don't have any Linux based machine to use Linux DD there is work around:
    1. Install WIndows Virutalbox and extension pack
    2. Download latest Archlinux ISO and run VM from it + USB support map real pendrive
    3. In guest VM booted form Arch ISO just run DD if=/dev/sr0 of=/dev/sda (pay attention that SDA is real USB device then).
    4. Wait about 8minutes. halt. unplug usb. Voila.

    I am having this exact problem but with dd on Ubuntu 12.04 (my main distro on my main machine).
    Perhaps my version of dd is too old?

  • HT203200 Error (-50 when sync from iTunes

    Error (-50 when sync from iTunes ???

    There countless posts on this?!  I'm in the same boat.
    PLEASE stop posting about the 3rd party or Firewall getting in the way.  Does not apply.
    I've turned off the firewall and have no 3rd party anything.
    The issue is itunes will not sync with 11.1.4 and iphone (5).
    Anyone?

  • HT1399 My album is not litsed alphabetically but it is when synced from PC to iphone. How do I keep the songs list in my iphone as it is in my album?

    My album is not litsed alphabetically but it is when synced from PC to iphone. How do I keep the songs list in my iphone as it is in my album?

    Check the section in the User Guide for Music, It might help you navigate around the app a little better: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
    To reiterate, some reasons you may not be getting Albums group as you want:
    Songs are not properly tagged in itunes prior to synching (you should also make sure Album Artist is tagged, BTW)
    You are using the wrong view in the Music app

  • Purchased songs lost when syncing from my iphone to itunes, how do I get them back?

    I have not had my iphone to my labtop for a month, Connected it just now, and when itunes was done syncing only the two newest purchases, of about 20 over the last month, was synced.
    None of the others are left on either the iphone, nor are their anywere to be found on my itunes...
    How do I retriewe them????

    Agree but annoyed that the IPhone syncs just about everything automatically except photo in camera roll. I just use windows explorer to copy and paste the photo files to my PC subdirectory. IPhone does sync photos from a chosen pc subdirectory to your Iphone. Strange they go only one way when "syncing" to me means maintaining both devices with the same files. Oh well, maybe the next OS will do it.

  • I am unable to download an album from the itunes library when syncing from my pc.

    I am unable to load an album on to my iphone from the itunes library on my pc when syncing.

    Hi there,
    Have you managed to get this right? I'm having the same problem. It's not a new album, it's been on my iPod before.
    iTunes 10 is what I have and my iPod Touch4's got IOS 6.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Rsync errors when syncing from linux centos 5.1

    I run this command to sync from linux directories to apple pc:
    rsync -arv --exclude-from="/Users/blwegrzyn/exclude.txt" --delete [email protected]:/shared3/ /DATA_BACKUP
    during the copy i see files being copied
    and if i run it again i see same files being copied again
    so around 1% or less was not copied correctly
    it looks like there are some special characters that macos does not like
    what is the proper way to do rsync so files are copied correctly from linux to apple ? When I copy linux to linux i dont have any issues.
    thx
    Bart

    for example directory that has character:
    (2006) Völkerball
    cannot be copied and every time i run rsync it tries to copy it again
    when i look at the destination folder I see that the directory actually was copied, but when i run rsync again , rsync deletes that directory and starts over
    if i remove special characters it works
    i found this post:
    http://www.xelon.it/articles/rsync-mac-linux-windows/
    so maybe the iconv is the switch that need to be used?
    i cannot tell cause my centos is not compliled with iconv
    i already compiled it for mac with iconv switch so i need to try on my linux to enable it and maybe it will solve the problem

  • My calendar is one day out when synced from iPhone to imac

    I have an iPhone 5s.  I have just bought an iMac 21.5inch. 
    When I connected my iPhone to the iMac to sync it, the calendar events all came over, but they are one day behind.
    I am very new to iMac.
    If anyone has a suggestion - I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks

    Hi ellie,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  If your iPhone's calendar events are one day behind when synced to your iMac, check the date and time settings on both devices.  Here's how:
    iOS: Troubleshooting issues with date and time - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT203483
    Ensure that the version of iOS on your device is up to date.
    If the option to enable date and time automatically is available, turn it on. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Ensure that your time zone is set up correctly. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone.
    If the incorrect date, time, or time zone is being set up automatically on the device, please notify your cellular provider. In the meantime, tap General > Date & Time and turn off Set Automatically. Then set the appropriate time and time zone manually.
    Note: The option to set automatically might not be available on all carriers in all countries. 
    Learn more
    Note: If you find that your device's time is incorrect after you sync with your computer, your computer's time may be incorrect. Verify the computer's time in System Preferences > Date & Time (you may want to select the checkbox to set the computer's date and time automatically). 
    Hope you are enjoying the holidays ...

  • IPad 2 music does not play and high resolution pictures get corrupted when syncing through iTunes on 64 bit Win 7.  Anyone else have a problem with iTunes corrupting music and pictures from 64bit machine?

    Works from a 32 bit XP machine.  Does not work from a 64bit Win 7 machine.  It's 64 bit that seems to be the issue; the music won't start playing, and for pictures, it's when they're more than 768x1024 resolution that they appear very low resolution and/or corrupt.  None of the normal tricks work (different user account; different USB port; different USB hub controller) and the problem is replicable.  The music and JPEG and PNGs, however, are fine if transferred via a Windows network to a 32 bit machine ie it's not the music/image files.

    Dear Katrina, the problem has finally been solved, with the help of a computer-savvy friend of mine who came round this afternoon. As a courtesy, and to thank you for all your help in this matter, I want to share the solution with you.
    A piece of the puzzle was missing, as you said, and it lay in the tenth line of the XML document I relayed to you....
    <key>Music Folder</key><string>file://localhost/C:/Users/Simon/Music/iTunes/iTunes%20Media/</string>
    My friend spotted that the command string contained a sub-folder of the iTunes folder called "iTunes Media". iTunes was expecting to find all my music there, but that folder didn't exist.
    So I created a new folder called "iTunes Media", and moved all my musical content into it, leaving all the command files in the original iTunes folder.
    Then I moved the "iTunes Media" folder into the "iTunes" folder, so that it was a sub-folder of the latter.
    Then I re-opened iTunes and - joy of joys! - everything works once again. I am re-united with all of my music, and without having to make over 14,000 manual location exercises. I can't tell you how exciting that is.
    The mystery is solved, and what had me so puzzled seems obvious now. Thanks again for your help. Without you I might never have got to this point.

  • Why does only some of the tracks of an album appear on my ipad when syncing from my windows 7 using itunes?, why does only some of the tracks of an album appear on my ipad when syncing from my windows 7 using itunes?

    i on day two of having an ipad, updated to io5 but putting music on it is proving tiresome. i've stored some 20gb on my netbook windows 7 from my larger library and using the sync process am trying to put tunes on the pad. when some albums appear they have one,maybe two songs available to play, the rest are grey and can't be played. It seems an endless process and this really is the only thing i've have concerns about i really like it.

    That would be a question for Yahoo or Microsoft. It isn't your iPad that is doing this.

  • Photo's messed up when syncing from iTunes 10 to iPhone OS 4.1

    Every time I sync photos from my PC to the iPhone the album goes all messed up. When I click the album the grid lines are all over the place and the photo's are overlapping and like a jigsaw puzzle. When I click to open a photograph the actual photograph is fine so it must just be the thumbnail.
    I suspect is a bug in software when its creating the preview table. This could be my iPhone or iTunes, not sure.
    So far i have reset my phone to factory default using iTunes, i have done a complete remove and reinstall of itunes inc removing all the sister software, even deleted the user files etc.
    Can't figure out why its doing this but if anyone has any suggestions i'd be happy to hear them.
    See the screen shot i took of it doing it:
    http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=123520&id=223100326&l=39b782b90d

    I later discovered from reading posts on this site that it was Zone Alarm causing corruption of the photographs during the sync process.
    I disabled Zone Alarm and tried to sync the photographs again and it worked fine!

  • Error message when Sync from itunes.

    I have 2 TVs, both have the latest update, iTunes 8, using AE for WIFI and both streaming. Both units have been working great for over a year now.
    One of the unit is now freezing up after about 1hr of use... I get this error message from iTunes when trying to Sync the unit:
    "The AppleTV is not responding.
    Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689."
    Never got this message before, trying to figure out where could I find the setting for any firewall software.???
    I reset my WIFI network (WEP)
    I did a soft and hard reset of the TV.
    Don't know what to do any more.... Might be the unit going bad but I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestion.
    Here is my setup:
    iTunes 8
    AE for WIFI
    latest update on TV
    Sys Pref> Security>firewall> allow all incoming connections
    PowermacG5, 10.5.5
    Streaming from the G5
    Thanks.

  • Corruption when transcoding from DV to Mpeg to in FCP, QT and Compressor

    After transcoding some DV files (exported from FCP) with white 'flash frames' to m2v using Compressor, i noticed that these same frames are green with lots of corruption around them.
    Any clue as to why this might happen?

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the help and tips.
    Ok so when I turn on the chroma and luma range check I get an "!" in the window, so there is clearly too much of something!
    However when I lower the 'Max Luma' level on the filter I'm using (Too Much Too Soon Flashframe), I still get the same problem when converting to m2v.
    I am begining to think that it's filter itself is causing the problem rather that the compression. The DV codec seems to handle the out of range luma but as soon as I convert it to m2v, the problem is back.
    So....deep breath, can anyone recommend a filter that will give me similar results to the 'Too Much Too Soon - Flashframe' transition? It increases Luma whilst blurring either the out going or incoming clip and it looks great.
    Thanks again for all your help. Unfortunately I am in the UK Michael and unable to pop of to your edit suite. Thanks for the kind offer though.
