Error message iTunes

I got a error message on my MBP which is "The iPhone could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build.". How can I solve this problem? I have already updated my itunes to the latest version. Thank you.

Hi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Congratulations on your new iPod. Hope we can get it working with iTunes for you
If your question is about iTunes you may get better help posting in an iTunes Forum instead of this iPod Forum.
What is the exact error message you get?
Are you on Windows or Mac - we need to know this to give you relevant advice (please, it helps if you fill in your tagline).

  • TS3697 I am receiving an error message(iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previously synced to your iPhone") I am trying to download pics from my computer to my iPhone. Any ideas? Peter

    When I went to download some pics (originally taken with my iphone 4S) from my computer back to my iPhone I got the following error message: "iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previosly synced to your iPhone?"
    Coincidentally, my wife just purchased an iPhone 4S and syncs to iTunes on the same computer.
    Any ideas?

    The "best" way to handle it, if you want to keep everything separate, is to create separate user accounts on the computer. make sure you log into your account on the computer before you attempt to sync your phone and log out when you're done using the computer.
    Though it's possible to sync both of them to the same iTunes library, and even share an account for the iTunes store, you're inviting confusion and possible data loss (as you've discovered already). Best to just use separate user accounts on the computer. That also gives you the benefit of not polluting the other persons browser favorites, contacts, etc.

  • Error message "iTunes Helper Resources not available" and saving to wrong Drive

    I am trying to upgrade iTunes to 10.7 on my PC but I keep getting the error message "iTunes Helper Resources not available". Diagnostics take me a support page which talks about not being able to see the device in iTunes - but I can see the device without problems.
    I thought I would try reinstalling iTunes from the webpage and it downloaded to my PC fine but when I went to setup, it showed me it is saving to a DVD drive - not my Hard drive. It also won't let me change the location for the file. I have no idea how that's happened as I obviously don't use the DVD drive as a USB (although the PC see's it as one) and I've never chosen it as the location for iTunes in the 7-8 years that I've been using it.
    I then thought I'd try uninstalling it and reinstalling it (to the correct drive) but again, it comes up that the DVD drive is invalid and won't uninstall iTunes.
    So I'm stuck and haven't been able to find anything helpful on the support pages or in iTunes Help.
    Please someone help ...
    Thanks.

    Try the following user tip. (Probably, the section on clearing the installation database might be best given that you've currently got a drive on the problematic letter at the moment.)

  • I get error message iTunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because an error occurred while merging data

    I get error message iTunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because an error occurred while merging data on my wifes phone how do you correct problem without losing calendars info on phone.

    One thing that might help.
    1. open itunes preferences from the edit menu and click on the devices tab.
    2. check the box to disable syncing for iphones connected to itunes and click ok.
    3. Then click the button to reset sync history.
    4. Now click ok to close the preferences window.
    5. connect the iphone to itunes and go to the info tab.
    6. scroll to the bottom of the info page and check the box to replace the ical data on the iphone.
    7. then click apply on the bottom right of itunes.
    This will overwrite any events on the iphone, including any events that has become corrupted.
    Hope this helps

  • Just updated to IOS 7 and two issues:  First when I connect my iPhone to my computer I get this error message:itunes was unable to provider data from sync services".

    Just updated to IOS 7 and two issues: 
    First when I connect my iPhone to my computer I get this error message:itunes was unable to provider data from sync services".  I'm not sure what this really means...
    The second issue is when I try to select "Manually Manage Music"
         The iPhone "My iPhone" is synced with another iTunes libary on "MY-PC".  Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?  An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time.  Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
    So... I don't want to do that, but I do what to be able to Manage my music.  I'm not sure what it means by being synced to another iTunes unless it means to an older version of itunes?
    Anyone have any ideas?

    I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it.

  • I set up ITunes etc. but keep getting the same error message: itunes cant connect ....error

    I'm getting very annoyed. Last night I bought an Ipod Touch for my son's birthday today. Tried to set it up last night...no go. I figured I was just tired and thought to try again this morning. I hooked the Touch up to my PC (running WIn7 Ultimate), downloaded the latest ITunes and set up "my" Apple ID. The fact I had to use my Visa was another annoyance. I set up HomeShare on his and my PCs and figured I'd activate the IPod from his PC, because it said on the acct. page that you could activate the acct. on only one computer. I plugged it in and got the " usb to itunes" image on the ipod screen, opened Itunes, checked for updates and it was the latest version. It said I have activated it on 2/5 PCs and before I could do anything else, I got the error message: " iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000065)" which pops up everytime. Still haven't seen the "app screen" on the ipod. I must say I'm rather disappointed with Apple after hearing how good it is. Doubt if I'll ever buy a Mac PC. They seem to be worse than MS for proprietary bs. If I can't get this working soon it's goin back.If anyone has had the same problem, I'd appreciate any feedback Thanks.

  • Error message: "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod."

    I wanted to get my dad a new iPod for Xmas and transfer all his music from his ancient Classic. But when I connect to my MacBookPro, I get the error message: "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod." I see that 90% of the ipod drive is used, but I don't see any songs listed either on the iPod screen or in iTunes, which is worrying. Is there anything I can to save the music? He will be so upset that it's all gone...

    My suggestions, when Restoring the iPod.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your iPod to the PC, using a high speed USB 2.0 port at the back of your PC.
    Disconnect all other USB devices, except the mouse and keyboard.
    Stop all other programs except iTunes.
    Good Luck!

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
