Error message when updating Ipod

I recently had to reinstall my operating system, so I also just reinstalled itunes and the ipod software (both with the latest versions from apple). but now, everytime I update my ipod it says "unable to update ipod. unexpected error occurred (-4)". All of the songs actually do update to my ipod, but I keep getting this error message. Does anyone know what it can mean? I have reformed my ipod, reinstalled the software...i've done everything the apple website has suggested, and i've now been working on it for hours. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I take it back....the songs aren't actually updating to the ipod....all the song names appear, but the songs will not play from the ipod. This is extremely frustrating!

Error message when updating Itunes...can not open Itunes program

I am recieving error message when updating Itunes for my computer. The error message reads "MSVCR80.dll is missing and the other error message reads Error 7 (Windows error 126)" I can not open my Itunes. I have reloaded the Itunes onto my computer but still have the same error messages. Please help.

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

ITunes displays -48 error message when syncing iPod Nano on Windows XP

My girlfriend's mom's iPod Nano ran out of charge while jogging so she decided to charge it on her daughter's iHome. The next day she went to use her iPod but it was totally empty of all music and files. When she tried to sync it to iTunes, she received an eror message stating, "An unknown error has occurred (-48)" from iTunes and a Windows message stating that some iPod folder/file was corrupted.
If anyone receives such a message, I was able to correct it by:
-Plugging in your iPod to your PC
-Ignore the error messages
-Go to My Computer
-Find your iPod's drive letter (ie. G:)
-Right-click on it and select Properties
-Go to Tools Tab >Error-checking and select Check Now
You should be able to sync your iPod as before. I do not claim to be an expert so be warned that it may not work for you. Good luck!

I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network". Is there an obvious setting I may be missing? Cisco router being used.

I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network". Is there an obvious setting I may be missing? Cisco router being used.

If you are trying to "extend" using wireless only, you may not be aware that Apple designed the "extend" feature as a proprietary setting to only work with other Apple routers.
It is extremely unlikely that this will work with a Cisco router.
If your plans call for connecting the AirPort Express to the Cisco router using a wired Ethernet connection, it should be possible to configure the Express that way.

Sounds to me like openssl is installed on your system but the info on it is now missing from the local pacman database (/var/lib/pacman/local). In other words, pacman forgot that you installed it. So in your second clip of code, pacman is complaining that files belonging to openssl exist in your filesystem, since you do have it installed but it no longer knows that.
Don't know if this is the proper way to fix it, but I imagine forcing a reinstall of openssl (pacman -Sf openssl) should get pacman to reinstall openssl so that it knows it is installed.
Bregol,
pacman -Sf openssl
seemed to have fixed it. Did not know of the force reinstall option. The necessary directories in /var/lib/pacman/local/openssl have been created.

HUGE Error Message When Syncing IPod!!!

alright well first of all i have the new nano 4G ipod. Recently i added a TON of new songs, and apparantly i went over the size limit that my ipod could hold. In other words I had more songs on my itunes library than could fit into my ipod. I found this out when I tried to sync my ipod after adding all of these new songs. This is the error message I got: "ipod cannot be synced because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist"
Now it gave me a temporary playlist before but i accidentally deleted so now I get this message. I really really really need help is there anything at all i can do I'm seriously going to die if this doesn't work soon =[

You get this problem when the option 'Sync Music - Selected playlists' is being used to sync your iPod and then the playlist it has been updating from is deleted. Most people use this setting when the iPod is smaller than the iTunes library. If your library is larger than the capacity of your iPod, iTunes by default makes a new playlist called something along the lines of "Owner's iPod". If you for any reason delete it, you will not be able to sync your iPod.
Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in Sources. You can make this a normal playlist and drag whatever you want to it or you can make it a random Smart playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano). Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
To make a random playlist go to File>New Smart Playlist.
Uncheck "Match the following rule"
Check "Limit to" put "3700" in the number box, choose "MB" from the first list box, choose "Random" from the next list box. Check "Live Updating"
When you want to change the selection in the playlist just delete everything in it and it will add a new selection

Error Message when syncing Ipod Touch

Just had my computer rebuilt, I have installed Itunes 10 but I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my ipod which is "You don't have enough access priveleges for this operation". Any ideas on how I can overcome this? Thanks in advance

You need to check your logon's access privileges in Vista. You may have to delete your current profile and recreate a new Admin profile to correct.

TS3219 Is anyone receiving a "unknown error" message when updating/getting new apps?

Before and after installing the new update I started receiving an "unknown error" message when trying to update apps. I changed my password thinking that was it but I am still getting the error message.

Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Error message when updating Sales Orders

Hi Experts
Following an issue over the weekend when I was forced to perform a hard reset we are now experiencing error message when trying to update some sales orders.
This entry already exists in the following tables " ADO1 (ODBC - 2035) [Message 131 - 183]
it is not happening on all orders - i think only ones which were on the system prior to the reset.
We also use webtools and the B1SyncService seems to be causing the SAP B1 system to become unusable - following each attempt to sync there is an error in the event log:
Event Type:     Error
Event Source:     B1SynchService
Event Category:     None
Event ID:     0

Computer:     SQL01

For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
For now I have had to stop the SyncService to prevent B1 from becoming unusable (users are unable to start any AR module), but even after I have stopped the syncservice I still have the error when updating sales orders.
Regards
Jon

Dear Johnny,
the error reported sounds like a DB Corruption. I would advise you to log a message to SAP Support including all the details in order to obtain the error message. It is also a good idea and it will speed up the process if you include some print screens showing exactly the error message.
Hope my reply helps you to solve the issue.

Wesley Honorato

keep getting an error message when doing a software update for 10.6.8

I've tried both ways but it does the same thing. I have iTunes v 10.3.1.
I get an error message before I try to install iTunes:
iTunes can’t verify the identity of the server “ax.itunes.apple.com”. The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be “ax.itunes.apple.com”, which could put your confidential information at risk. Would you like to connect to the server anyway?
