Error code 0xE800000 when connecting iPod Touch to iTunes 7.7

Since one week ago my iPod Touch 8GB was working properly with my iTunes. Then I upgraded to iTunes 7.7 and upgraded the Touch to 2.0. Now iTunes does not recognize the Touch anymore and does not connect to it. I cannot use the Touch anymore because it always tells me to connect to iTunes.
I tried to restore the Touch but nothing changes and iTunes refuse to recognize the device. Instead it responses with an unknown error (Error Code 0xE8000001). I tried all two USB 1.1 ports on my G4 400 Laptop as well as all two USB 2.0 over PCMCIA card. Always the same error.
Can anyone please let me know what I can do now to get the Touch back to work

Also getting this error and I can't seem to connect my iPhone to my laptop's iTunes. Tried re-installing iTunes but still no go.
Would appreciate any suggestion to try to resolve this issue.

  • Error code -120 when updating iPod touch 2nd gen 8GB to iOS 4.1

    When i try to update my iPod Touch to iOS 4.1 it gives me an error -120 and it can't backup to the computer.

    [Update and restore alert messages on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275] should be useful. I don't see error 120 specifically but I think the other info might help resolve your problem.
    Hope it helps!

  • Unexpected "Connect iPod touch to iTunes" screen

    I powered off my 2G Touch before flying to Argentina; then powering up again on arrival brought up a new-to-me "Connect iPod touch to iTunes screen", which no amount of button presses would get past.
    Luckily there was a PC where we were staying, and with iTunes installed, and with USB, so I was able to get going again, esp. since I'd disabled automatic syncing, though now everything was in Spanish. But,
    Q1: does anyone know what this screen really means?, and why it might have come up? [a wifi router was nearby]
    Q2: would a hard reset [hold sleep/wake and home buttons for 10 sec] worked to get past this screen?

    I have the same problem, getting the 'connect' symbol or icon while travelling. I just got off the phone and an unsatisfying conversation with Apple support. Apparently, this is a "rare?" problem that is caused when there is some kind of software failure on the iPod Touch, and that there is no way to get around it except connecting to iTunes on some pc somewhere, ideally your own PC and iTunes. This happened once before for me but I was home and just plugged it in. The iPod recovered, connected and synced with no error message at all. The rep at Apple support said there is no log or trace that can be retrieved, so the mysterious iPod Touch software failure will remain unknown. He said I could take it in for warranty service, but who knows if they could reproduce the problem. Maybe the new iPhone/iPod Touch software version will run better (or worse). ps, I tried all possible combinations of hard reset on the unit, but nothing else works to recover.

  • I have error code 2330 when i tried to download itunes 10.5, how do I fix the problem?

    I have error code 2330 when I tried to download itunes 10.5. Different sites I have visited give different solutions and most seem to indicate removing the current itunes program then reinstalling the new 10.5. I did try to remove the program but it took a long time and I had to reboot the computer. Has anyone had the same issue and how did they fix the problem?

    I was having this problem with my wife's computer today so I did a Check Disk from the command prompt. (start/run then type chkdsk) let it do its thing then restart windows and it does some other BS on the start up. Relaunch itunes and then retry to download. I went to the apple website and click on the download and saved the file to my desk top then ran it from there. Let me know if you have the same luck. -Mike

  • ITunes freezing when connecting iPod Touch to it, switching library soon

    Hello,
    Soon I will be getting a new computer, and I have recently been starting the process (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329?viewlocale=en_US) in which I can move my current iTunes library off my old computer onto my new computer using my iPod. I was down to the "Copy iTunes folder to iPod" step (I did not do the step), when I had to leave, so I saved all my new settings on my iPod Touch and iTunes and disconnected my iPod. When I came back later that day to finnish the process, I plugged my iPod into my computer, and it froze iTunes, but not other windows open on my computer at the time. When I unplugged my iPod, iTunes went back to working like normal. It has been doing this for a few days now, and I have tried many things, which have been proven unsucessful. I really need to start using my new computer, but I don't want to do it without my iTunes library, since after I begin using my new computer, I will no longer have my old one. I need help very fast, and I will appreciate anyone who is willing to give me advise.
    Thank You.

    I also have an older version of iTunes. I think it was the last version of 7.

  • Problem connecting ipod touch to iTunes

    Hi,
    First of all sorry for my bad english.
    I have an Ipod Touch and i have a problem with connection the ipod to my computer. When i connect the ipod to my computer, itunes start's up but gives an error "iTunes cannot connect to the iphone caused by an unknown error (0xE8000065)" (it's written in dutch so its difficult to translate). I have done EVERYTHING. Remove iTunes, Apple update, Apple mobile device support. Reinstall iTunes newest version 8.1.1, after the reinstalation it works FINE but only the first time. When i disconnect the Ipod the same problem is back.. When i connect it to an other Pc it works fantastic and for more then just the first time (it keeps working). On the other PC i restored the Iphone with the shift button and in recovery mode. I used an other cable, other USB ports (nothing helps). Restarted Ipod service ... All i've readed i did.
    Now my question is : I know its not the Ipod, but is it possible that it is a fold or is there a fix ? Because when i reinstall everything it works but only for 1 time after that the fold keeps on coming back

    My friends were having trouble with this on an XP windows PC, they tried everything but install xp service pack 3, doing so after calling apple tech support on 1300 321 456 (australia).
    I left before they downloaded it, though it didn't work for flash drives (?) - new 1 week old ipod touch (version 2.?) and my iphone (version 3.0), although my Ipod nano (version 1.1.3) connected just fine.
    It was coming up as a message saying about a bad connection to an iphone when the ipod touch was connected too!
    I read something that seems possible only during the very first connection attempt, being a is connection is made. My friends swear they were able to transfer music to the new ipod touch connected up to the computer, not sure exactly what process, although after disconnecting the ipod touch is no longer recognised by the software properly.
    I'd rule out its a plug & charge cable (unless its damaged), you'll probably need the latest itunes and be running a PC with windows XP service pack 3.

  • How to connect ipod touch to itunes on Mac OS 10.4.11

    My desktop (Tiger Mac OS 10.4.11) will not recognize my ipod touch in itunes thus preventing downloading of music to the ipod. The ipod is recognized in iphoto and is brought up automatically when attached to the desktop. The connection is via usb directly to the desktop. Are there any ideas on a fix for this problem?

    If the iPod has iOS 4.2 or greater you need to upgrade the operating system on the computer. To find version go to Settings>General>About>Version
    IOS 4. to iOS 5 requires OSX 10.5.8 or greater
    iOS 6 requires 10.6.8 or later
    If you have a 4G with IOS 6 10.5.8 may work. See:
    ios 6 and macosx 10.5 on a pre intel...: Apple Support Communities
    OSX 10.6.8 requires a Mac with an Intel processor
    To purchase the OSX upgrade disks you have to call Apple since they are not listed in the on-line store.

  • ITunes sends error message when connecting iPod touch

    I have an iPod touch 2nd generation, and I decided to reset it as it was having problems, and now it displays the connect to iTunes message like when I first purchased it. I connected it to iTunes like it wanted, but when I connect the iPod to iTunes, iTunes displays the following error message "iTunes could not connect to the iPod "iPod touch" because an unknown error occurred (0xE000001)". I am not an uninformed person on these matters and have tried everything I can think of i.e. updating iTunes, using a different dock connector etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Hi Maxwell,
    This is most likely a USB connection issue.
    Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to a high-speed USB2 port on the computer, using the cable that came with it.
    If the issue persists, try the general tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286

  • When resetting ipod touch to itunes it comes up with error (2003) what does that mean)

    my ipod won't reset on itunes it picks up theres an ipod and tells me to up date software and reset i have done every thing itunes asks me to do but still comes up with this error (2003) i have even checked on you tube to see if im connecting it properly every one of them has done the same connecting of there ipods as i have please HEEEEEEEEEELP.

    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.
    Above from:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Are you talking about restoring?  A reset is:
    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.

  • Stop programs from auto-opening when connecting iPod touch to PC

    I have a PC, and when I charge my iPod touch it wants to automatically open iPhoto, but cannot find it. So it asks which program I should use instead, so I stupidly chose Photoshop. Now every time I plug in my iPod touch, Photoshop automatically opens.
    Note: It's not about auto-syncing, I already have that disabled. The problem is I don't have a Mac, so I don't have iPhoto. It's trying to open iPhoto, but uses Photoshop instead.

    You may have inadvertently saved a picture from the web, if you hold the Home key it will snap a copy of the picture to your Touch. This is not the same as pictures you sync from iTunes. When you have a saved image on the Touch, that causes Windows to think it is a camera so it wants to open what it thinks is a related application.
    You can tell Windows to disable this, refer to this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1857
    Another solution is to connect the Touch to your computer and go into My Computer. Normally you won't see your Touch listed, but if there is a picture saved to the Touch as described above, it will show up as a "drive". Select it an you'll probably see the image saved to the Touch, so you can delete it (or move it to your computer if you want it for some reason).
