Error message "can't sync this IPOD"- file missing?

Evidently my sync file on my IPOD Classic can't be found. Is this another Lion glitch? My Canon MX860 printer won't work (not compatible with Lion either.

Thank you so much for sending me this link!!! At first I just backed up my computer from our Time Machine to the day before. However I tried to reinstall the update and it did the same thing! I did the fix stated and it worked! YEA!!!!!!

Error message :"Can't sync. A file is specified not a folder."

My iphone 4 will not sync. Error message is "A file is specified, not a folder". I haven't changed anything since the last time I synced. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

hi
I had the same problem (update failed for normal user, update worked for administrator, but then normal user still got asked about installing the update even though it was already done).
Following the advice on http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_update#Software_Update_not_working_properly worked for me, in particular to remove the update-related xml files.
good luck

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!

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

I am trying to import for Sony RAW .mxf files in AE. I get an error message, cannot be imported - this.mxf file is damages or unsupported.

I am on a PC. AE version 12.1.0.168. It is updated.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem. We are working on a feature film shot on Sony F55 in 4K RAW.

Thanks. Now it works in PP and AE.

First, your AE needs to be updated. The current version is 12.2.1.5
If that does not fix the problem let us know.
Second question, are you using the Sony import utility? If not, give that a try. Last question, can you open the files in Premiere Pro? I hope you are not trying to cut a feature film in After Effects.

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!

.ics file error : "iCal can't read this calendar file."

I would like to add my flight itinery to my iCal. Downloaded the .ics file from the BA website. When double clicking on it and dragging it to iCal this message pops up: "iCal can’t read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar."
file details:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:-//Ben Fortuna//iCal4j 1.0//EN
VERSION:2.0
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
METHOD:PUBLISH
BEGIN:VEVENT
I also tried converting it to .vcs. Then iCal asks which calender I would like to add it to but still comes up with above message.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi!
I managed to import the file when I deleted everything that had to do with HTML code at the end of the file. I'm not exactly sure about the purpose of this code, but deleting it left me with my flights inside my calendar, exactly as I wanted.
HTH,
Michael

When sycning photos get error message: can't sync file not found

Trying to sync my wife's new 3gs to my macbook Pro. Never had any problems syncing my phone. With hers I can sync everything but photos. I get an error message saying can't sync file not found. I have no idea what file it is looking for or whether it is missing from the phone or my computer.

Thanks so much. The file path wasn't exactly the same as the link said, but it was close enough that I found it in a few minutes. Trashed the ipod cache as instructed, and now all my iphones and ipods have synced photos. Thanks again, would have never found that file on my own.

Error message "unable to sync, a duplicate file name was specified"

Hi All,
I`m getting the above message when I try to sync my music library.
I have updated to IOS 5. I had been receiving this message before the update, but I ignored it, because the library was syncing. However after the update my ipod just displays "no content" where my music should be. I am also unable to sync music purchased after the update.
Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?

Try and unchecking Manually manage music and videos on the summary page in iTunes. To get there, just go to ____'s iPod, scroll down, and it should be there. You can then check any other boxes (or uncheck) that you think might help you. That box might have automatically checked itself after the update. Also, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes by going to the apple in the top left hand corner, and clicking software update.

My computer crashed necessitating re-install of operating sys and all programs including iTunes. When I click on a song in my library I get an error message "can't find this song, want to search?" What gives? How can I listen to songs in my library on this computer now?

It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.

How can I sync my ipod without losing data?

I bought my ipod around half a year ago and had it synced and everything to my Mac for school. The school took my computer for summer and i backed up the files onto my external harddrive. But i have bought songs and apps on my ipod touch which is no longer connected to any itunes library.
How can i sync this ipod with a itunes library without losing everything on my ipod??
(note: the computer i am using now is a windows, with an itunes library that also has music bought on it)

Tough spot if you want Apple only SW, no idea where you can get where you want without some decent 3rd party SW, which as a rule outshines Apple's SW by light years.

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!
