Error message when attempting to sync with itunes

when i try to sync my phone it says "itunes cannot read the content of this iphone, go to the summary tab in iphone preferences and click restore" but i dont want to restore my phone. any other options?

A user named Benxine found a fix that worked for me after failing with all the others:
IF your computer has an old cydia app called Wi-Fi Sync (you'll recognize it on your toolbar as a black silhouette of an iphone that NEVER goes away), then this is probably your main culprit. Simple fix.
1. Goto your hard drive in the finder
2. Goto Library
3. Goto Launch Daemons
4. Throw this in the trash: com.ghughes.wifisync.root.plist
5. Goto Library
6. Goto Application Support
7. Throw this in the trash: Wi-Fi Sync (it's an entire folder).
8. Restart.
9. Thank Benxine!!

When I start my computer I get a "AppleSyncNotifier.exe Entry Point Not Found message. I also get an error message when trying to sync with iTunes that a backup session cannot be started. How do I fix this?

In the last few days when I start my computer, I get a box that opens with "AppleSyncNotifier.exe" Entry Point Not Found in the title.
It says: "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQlite3.dll.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and still get an error message when trying to sync my phone with iTunes
"iTunes could not back up iPhone ####, because a session could not be started with the iPhone."
The last time I tried to sync my phone (iPhone 3G S) with iTunes, everything seemed to freeze up at Stage 4 of the sync process.
Any advice????

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Reboot and see if all is well
In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

Error message when trying to Sync with itunes

Hi
I seem to get error messages when I try to sync with itunes. I have the iphone 3G. Also all my music and videos seem to have carried across, all except one, it's very odd. Latest error message reads:
"itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
Any clues?

"itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
This error is associated with ringtones, are you trying to sync a ringtone, purchase a ringtone...need more info...
I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
Are you on Windows XP? Is this the error message...iTunes displays -50 error message? If so, follow these directions:

Error message when attempting to sync to itunes

Recently I have been having a problem syncing my iphone (original model 16 gb OS 2.2.1 with iTunes (8.0). I get a message that says unable to read from iphone. I can work around this by forcing the iphone to reboot. I can then perform a normal sync. However, the next time I attempt to sync I get the same error message.
I would appreciate any suggestions to fix this problem.
Thanks!

The message says iTunes could not connect to the iphone " " because an error occurred while reading from the device.
This message appears as soon as the phone is connected. It is coincidental with the sound the iphone makes when it is plugged into the USB cable
I have updated to OS 10.5.7 and iTunes version 8.2 and this has not made the problem any less frequent.
As far as what I'm trying to sync, I don't know what you mean. I'm attempting to do a general periodic sync of the iphone and my Mac.

Error message when attempting to sync with SharePoint List

When I attempt to Validate the URL in Project so that I can sync my work to a SharePoint List I receive the error message shown below. I have tried using both the regular URL and I tried TinyURL as well to see if the error was due to sheer length. I have
confirmed that the site is valid and is available. No matter what I get the following message. I have also ensured that my permission settings are all set to 'Full Access' and so I do not believe that this is the result of permission settings. Can anyone
provide some guidance as to why this message appears?
Error message:
*The SharePoint site is invalid
*The SharePoint site is currently unavailable
*The user does not have full or design permission on the SharePoint site

Error message when attempting to connect to itunes store

When I try to go to the itunes store I receive an error message that says "the network connection was reset. Make sure your network connection is active and try again". I can connect to everything but itunes store. I have contacted itunes support and they say it is a problem with my network. My ISP is HughesNet. No one in their tech support seems to know anything about a Mac. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Thanks!

This is the only solution that worked for me. I tried the setting the date one year ahead, didn't work. Tried settings reset, didn't work. Tried using alternate apple ID, didn't work. This is the only thing that worked, hope it helps anyone else that other soluctions don't work.
Thanks for the information and help!

I received this error message when attempting to open my iTunes: apple application support not found

I'm not sure if my iTunes won't open because my apple software might have been deleted from my computer during a clean out. How do I reestablish my apple software without losing all my iTunes music? Apple's error message is telling me that I have to uninstall iTunes and then re install it, but I'm pretty sure I'll lose everything if I do this. Suggestions?????

Hello RunnerGirl98,
If you reinstall iTunes using this article, your songs will not be deleted. The Media in iTunes is stored in the iTunes folder, which is normally found in your Music folder and is not attached, or part of the iTunes application.
It will be either one of these 2 articles depending on the OS version you have installed:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
I would also verify where your iTunes library is stored using this information:
Where are my iTunes files located?

Error Message= iPod won't Sync with iTunes

I have an 3rd generation iPod and lately I have been getting an error message that says "The iPod DN5 cannot be synced. An unknown error has occurred (-48)".
If anybody has ever encountered this problem, please post an answer as I don't have the money amount to buy a new one.

Hey there,
Have you tried putting the iPod into Disk Mode? You may have to restore your iPod, but it might be able to fix the problem. Once your iPod is plugged in, just hit restore that comes up the main page. Hope this helps.

Error message when attempting to import into iTunes

A while ago a friend helped me put all of my music files onto an external drive. I recently purchased a second computer and was happily importing CD's, up until I migrated all data from my old computer to the new one. Now, when I try to import CD's (new ones that aren't even on the playlist referenced to the old computer and filed on the external drive), I get a warning that says "ERROR OCCURRED WHILE CONVERTING THE FILE (song title). THE REQUIRED DISC CANNOT BE FOUND.
Is there some preference that might have been configured when the external drive was set up to receive the itunes music files, or???? Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
