Error -50 when syncing photos to 2nd Gen Nano 4gig

Receiving an error message -50 when trying to load photos onto a new iPod Nano 4gig. Music loads fine. Photo tab will not allow me to select prefered photo albums and when forced to sync, I get the above error message.
Any ideas how to correct?
Thank you in advance.

I ran updater and downloaded the most recent version from the apple site. The latest version is 7.02.15. Where did you find .16?

Apple logo and menu no longer come up when turning on my 2nd gen nano. However, if I just hit the right buttons the songs play and it runs normally. On occasion the logo and menu come on but it is now in chinese. Should I restore or Junk?

Error message when syncing photos from laptop

When trying to copie photos from laptop to ipad I get the following message :-Photoshoot was not copied to the ipod "sids ipod" because it could not be found

Although it's for iPhone and Touch, the following document is also worth a try on an iPad. (I'd check your photo cache first.)

Error (-50) when syncing photos to the iPad

When it starts to sync, and the photos are selected, itunes displays the message 'An unknown error (-50) occurred'
With the iPad 2 and iPhone 5.
I already formatted all Macbook, iPad and iPhone devices.
What do I do??

It doesn't seem to be related to the photos, Unless they are on a different computer?
The trouble shooting guide indicates it may be due to one of the problems in link:

Error message when syncing photos/videos in iPhoto between iMac and iPad/iPhone 4S.

I repeatedly get a message saying that "224 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information or for details". I'm trying to figure out why this is happening and I can't figure out where in iTunes I can get the details the error message references. Does anyone know how to diagnose?
Please note: this is not a space/capacity issue. I've already eliminated that as an issue.
Thanks in advance.

ITunes for Mac Error -50 when syncing iPod photo

OS X 10.5.4 iTunes 7.7 Getting error -50 when syncing photos to my 60G iPod Photo, music is synced but not alll checked photos. I have AppleTV and 2 iPhones that are synced with this computer and all 3 of those are synced properly. But this iPod is giving me fits. I have restored the iPod and re-synced to no avail. Are there any plists that are hidden that I can trash. I have read about keywords on photos causing it, but I have 19,0000 tagged photos and I can't look at each one for a corrupt keyword. I have turned on albums one at a time with no help. Seems like a sync is a sync iPhone, iPod, AppleTV. Why different results? I am trying to get the same photos as on iPhones (16G), and the Apple TV has all of my songs and Photos, so the keyword thing may be bogus info.

Hi! I am having the same problem...how did you fix it?
Thanks!

During sync, iPod touch 2nd gen shows error code for 2 apps: 0xe8008001

In attempting to sync my iPod 2nd Gen, two games - JellyCar 3 and TreesofDoom will not sync and the message: The app "jelly car 3" was not installed on the ipod touch because an unknown error occured (0xe8008001). I have not been able to locate this specific error on the support site.Any help is certainly appreciated

Sounds like this:
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

Error when syncing photos...

Error when syncing photos. When I synchronize my IPad 1 (IOS 4.5.3) with Macbook (OS X 10.5.8) as I always do, an error saying that some pictures could not be synchronized because de IPad can not open those pictures!. Always copied from one device to another without problems! I use the latest version of ITunes. Thanks

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

Fix for "necessary file could not be found" when syncing photos

During the holidays I found the fix for an annoying error message when syncing my iPod Touch (2nd gen), my wifes iPhone 3GS and my iPhone 4, that I'm pleased to share with you all:
The problem was that iTunes gave an error message that "an necessary file could not be found" (my own translation from the Danish wording) when I tried syncing photos - and then syncing stopped/aborted all together. Very annoying!
But it wasn't all photos that triggered this error, only some. I've tried switching usb-port, removing special folders inside "Pictures" and inside "Library" etc.
Yesterday I tried to remove the "iPod Photo Cache" folder inside the iPhoto Lib itself. And that resolved this issue! Eg. ctrl-click the iPhoto Lib file, show content of package and delete/move the "iPod Photo Cache" folder to trash.
Hope this will help others!

Had the same problem, but with music only. Thank you for the information

Error 39 when syncing iphone

I keep getting an Error 39 when I try to sync my iphone. What is it? and How do I fix it?

Hi,
Do you see this when syncing photos?
Try deleting the iPod photo cache folder, which is created in the root of the folder photos are synced from.This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314 provides more information about the iPod photo Cache folder.

Itunes says "syncing" but ipod does not. 2nd gen nano

My wife has a 2nd gen nano that will not sync. Itunes says "syncing" but ipod does not, you can scroll through the menus and use it like it was not connected. When I first connect it, the do not disconnect sign appears then after a few seconds the main menu. She has used it for 2 years and it worked fine until today.

Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

From your statements above, it sounds like you never tried to burn a CD for at least the first year that you owned the laptop, as it had a one year warranty on it. While you might have used it frequently to install software, play DVDs, Blu-Ray disks, etc, that's unclear from your statements. Nonetheless, it might just be dirty-dusty. So, before deleting-uninstalling any software, and given they're cheap, try a CD-DVD Cleaner Disk first and see if that resolves your problems.
Let us know what happens. Good luck.

ITunes displays -48 error message when syncing iPod Nano on Windows XP

My girlfriend's mom's iPod Nano ran out of charge while jogging so she decided to charge it on her daughter's iHome. The next day she went to use her iPod but it was totally empty of all music and files. When she tried to sync it to iTunes, she received an eror message stating, "An unknown error has occurred (-48)" from iTunes and a Windows message stating that some iPod folder/file was corrupted.
If anyone receives such a message, I was able to correct it by:
-Plugging in your iPod to your PC
-Ignore the error messages
-Go to My Computer
-Find your iPod's drive letter (ie. G:)
-Right-click on it and select Properties
-Go to Tools Tab >Error-checking and select Check Now
You should be able to sync your iPod as before. I do not claim to be an expert so be warned that it may not work for you. Good luck!
