Error message when I try to add music

Hi,
I had a lot of problems with my itunes, and eventually got my computer to recognise the several attached to it. Now when I download music onto my hard drive and attempt to add folder to library, I get this message "attempting to copy the disk "vista" failed. The filename was invalid or too long" I'm thinking that the Vista part should be the ipod name, but I have no clue what step to take next. Any offers of help much appreciated.
Thanks
Dave

Someone else with this problem said that it was solved when they did some diagnostics on their music files. Once they fixed some that were corrupted, the error went away.
Here are some links that might help:

  • Error message when I try to play music

    When I try to play music that I purchased on my phone I get an error message saying "The requested url was not found on this server". What does this mean and what do I do?

    When the CD is loaded and I go to play it via computer it shows a dead icon and it is not recognised.
    Usually the icon shows details of the disc to be played but in this case it doesnt, when I right click to choose a player there are none available to choose from.

  • Error message when I try to add a domain name

    So I bought a domain name from hostgator.com and I got hosting for it but then I changed the the domain name so that I could use the previous domain name I had purchased on a new website. So after I changed the domain on the website that was being hosted on hostgator.com to one I didn't care about, I got the domain name that I wanted and redirected the name servers to these ones:
    ns1.worldsecuresystems.com (54.236.190.129) - primary DNS server   
    ns2.worldsecuresystems.com (54.246.209.121) - secondary DNS server
    ns3.worldsecuresystems.com (54.252.148.151)
    So after I did that I went to business catalyst and clicked on "launch my site" after that I clicked on "add domain" which was located right below "launch my site" so when I entered the domain name and clicked the "save" button a little window to the right of the screen pops of and reads "Error: domain name already exist. Please delete all records associated with this domain name before re-adding it."  I'm not sure on what to do any help?

    There must be some remnants if that domain in BC. In either this site or another site.
    STart re by completely removing all DNS settings and try again. Make sure you delete the txt records as well be thorough.
    IF that doesn't work log a support ticket with BC and let them know the issues with screenshot. They'll find the site that's been set up with that url and remove it.

  • I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    Yes, I had found a similar solution also.  I'm running XP Pro, SP3.  I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair.  Then run the 10.5 exe.
    While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess.  Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes.  Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing.  I haven't begun to work on that.

  • HT1386 I get an error message when I try to sync my iPod touch - "you do not have enough access privileges for this operation"

    I recently installed a new hard drive on my PC, downloaded iTunes, updated the software on my iPod touch and now I get this error message when I try to sync:  "you do not have enough access privileges for this operation."  It never did this before, whether it's the upgrade in software or something in iTunes, but it's very frustrating, since I'd like to add more things to my iPod.

  • Error Message when I try to update my iPod and Nano

    HELP! I am suddenly getting an error message when I try to update both my iPod and Nano that states "...certain songs could not be added because I am not authorized to play them on this computer..."
    Any thoughts???

    do you know which songs are being missed? (they will be itunes Music Store purchases.)
    do they play in your itunes at the moment?
    were they purchased through your iTunes Music Store account, or were they purchased by someone else (and your PC has been authorised to play songs from that account?)

    If this is an evaluation lab, then it's time to rebuild it.
    If this is a production system, then you'll need to contact product support, show proof of ownership, and get their tool that will convert the management group to a licensed version.
    Generally, when building a system for production, you should do it with a full product key. there is no supported method to add the license key later except through product support's special tools.

  • I get this error message when I try to email photos using iPhoto: Your email did not go through because the server did not reply.

    I get this error message when I try to email photos using iPhoto: Your email did not go through because the server did not reply. How can I get this to work when my internet is connected?

    Are you able to email from Mail with those two accounts?  If so:
    1 - go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete both accounts. Now add them back and try again.
    2 - a better solution IMO is to set Mail as the email client for iPhoto is iPhoto's General preference pane.  This gives you better access to your contacts, a sent copy of all emails and, if you want a layout similar to iPhoto's, photo layouts located in Mail's stationary.

  • I get the following error message when I try to receive e-mail in this hotmail account: "Configuration could not be verified – is the user name or password wron

    I have tried to add a hotmail account to Thunderbird because my Internet provider will stop e-mail support in the near future. I was able to add a hotmail account to Thunderbird, but I get the following error message when I try to receive e-mail in this hotmail account: "Configuration could not be verified – is the user name or password wrong?" (The hotmail website receives the e-mail.) User name and password is certainly correct. I have a 8.1 OS. Thank you.

    got an anti virus that thinks it should scan email. Turn that function off.
    Have a firewall, check that Thunderbird has full internet access, not some Auto rubbish that somehow fails.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
