Error 1723 - Can not sync

I have been trying for over a week to sync my iPhones 5s and iPad mini to itunes. 9 times out of 10 I will get a Error 1723 message, other wise I will get -50 Error. Advice from other threads ( https://discussions.apple.com/message/23386482#23386482 ) told me to change USB ports, change cables, and try a USB hub. I have tried all of these and keep getting the error message.
Today I restored my iPad to factory defaults as a last effort to get it to sync and, unfortantley, didn't work. It wants to sync my backup but can not get through all the steps before erroring. Now it is stuck at the factory default.
I really think the fault lies with iTunes. Under photos in the device tab loads nothing, just the loading circle (see attached photo). It does this for both devices. Even on other accounts it does this. Even after downloading a new setup file and reinstalling iTunes it does this. Frustrating. I'm contimplating a reinstalling osx to see if it will fix this issue.
OSX v. 10.9.1
iTunes v. 11.1.4 (62)
iPhone & iPad v. 7.0.4

so deleting your iPod photo cache as luigin suggested solved this for me.
i suspect that the fresh install of mavericks was just a much harder way of removing the corruption from that cache, so it worked but was more involved than it needed to be.
to save you scrolling, this is what luigin suggested:
Quit iTunes.
Open Finder, and go to wherever your iPhoto library is stored (usually ~/Pictures).
Right-click on the iPhoto Library and select "Show package contents"
Delete the "iPod Photo Cache" folder
Close the finder window
Open iPhoto. It might take some time for it to reload the library, but it's ok.
When iPhoto finishes loading the library and you can browse your photos, close iPhoto
Open iTunes, goto your device's Photo tab, and make shure the Sync photos options is UNCHECKED
Sync your device
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
Select which photos, events, albums or faces you want to sync,

i have ipod classic 5gen it will not sync with windows the error message says ipod can not sync as required file missing wht to do???

Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Have a nice day!

I recently restored my computer and now I can not sync my ipod to my computer - the error says "my ipod is synced with anothers itunes libary"

I can not sync my ipod to my computer - the error message says " my ipod is synced with another itnes libary"

Re-installing the OS on your PC has caused your iPod to think it is now syncing with a new/different iTunes library. An iPod can only be synced with one computer/iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync the iPod with a different/new iTunes library it will erase the contents the iPod and replace them with what is in the new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Upgraded to iTunes 11. Now, I can not sync my music to my iPhone 4S (iOS 6.0.1). Apps, movies and videos sync OK. Music is the problem. Tags are correctly check-marked. NO ERROR MESSAGE THOUGH. Just a No Content in the Music App in the iPhone. Any ideas ???

Bump!

My old computer crashed completly. I have a new computer now. It is a HP with internet 8 on it. I downloaded itunes but can not sync itunes to the new computer. Every time I try I get a warning that if i proceed then all my stuff on the phone will erased.

I recently bought a new computer becouse my old computer crashed. Now I can not sync my itunes account. I get an error when I try. It says that itunes will erase my phone content and replace with what is on the phone. I do not want to lose all my stuff so what do I do?

This is how it works.
Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

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!

Error Garageband - can't sync midi and audio

I have no midi attached but still get an error message "Can't sync midi and audio".
All I am trying to do is record a voice-over using the built in mic on the iMac. But this error message keeps popping up constantly. I close it and then 10 seconds later it pops up again.
Why is garageband trying to sync a mid that I have not connected?

Hi!
Enable all audio tracks (R) you wish to record. Then make sure you select the audio instrument you are using on the left of the arrange page (track list). If you here your input, hold shift, then highlight (gray) the mentioned audio tracks you wish to record on. When R is red, and the proper tracks are grey, you can record. Hope that made sense!
