Error when syncing iTunes 8 with iphone 3GS "Notes"

"iTunes could not sync notes to 'Scott's iPhone' because the iPhone is disconnected"
Have tried rebooting, checking/unchecking notes box, etc but I keep getting this error message. Everything else seems to sync fine.
Also, I'm unable to even use "notes" on my iPhone to edit or create anything new
HELP

I'm having the same problem. Just upgraded from the 3G to the new 3GS today and am getting the following error message: "iTunes could not sync notes to the iPhone 'iPhone' because the iPhone disconnected"
Here's the configuration:
iTunes 8.2
Mac Leopard
What I've tried:
Changed cables
Tried bypassing the USB hub
Rebooted both my Mac as well as the iPhone
Notes worked fine with the new 3.0 upgrade on the 3G but can't get it to work for the new 3GS.
Help!?

  • Error when syncing music with iphone 3g and itunes

    Does anyone know how to fix the "unknown error -69" when trying to sync iphone 3g and itunes. I have plenty of memory but certain songs will error and then all others after that one errors. So annoying can any one help?

    A couple of things that might help out.
    Open computer management by clicking on start and right clicking on my computer, then choose manage.
    When the computer management window opens, expand services and applications on the left.
    Click on services and see if Apple Mobile Device is running on the right.
    If it is not running, or is not set to automatic, try starting it.
    Also if apple mobile devise is not installed or will not start, this article might help out uninstalling and reinstalling itunes.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926?viewlocale=en_US
    If the apple mobile device is installed and will just not start, try uninstalling your security software.
    Once uninstalled, restart your computer.
    Once the computer is restarted, open computer management to see if apple mobile device will start.
    Hope this helps.

  • Runtime error when syncing P1i with PC

    I get a runtime error when syncing my P1i to PC. The error is linked with this file, 'dxp syncml.exe', and the application is said to request the 'Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way'. How do you fix this?

    Thanks Joanne. Let me give you feedback on whats happening so far.
    After some doing, I discovered that my firewall is controlled by Norton Firewall Provider. (Bear in mind I am a novice in terms of managing these computer protocols). To modify the firewall settings, Norton calls this in their the control panel  'Smart firewall', I go to program control then configure. A list of programs came up with the options to add, modify, remove or rename. I searched the list and found that DXP SyncML.exe and mRouterRuntime.exe were listed and set to 'Auto' in the Access column. I noticed that under access, the options include auto, allow, block and custom. I reasoned that 'allow' is the highest level of access, and to support the sync feature, I changed the status to 'allow' from 'auto' for the DXP SyncML and mRouterRuntime executable files. If you believe it is ok and safer to keep the auto status, advise me.
    I did not find in the listing any of these programs; Bearer Abstraction Layer (SCBAL.exe), Generic Device Management Executable (Generic.exe) or Symbian Connect Object Model for Symbian Connect QI (SymbianConnectRuntime.exe).I did a search and located the generic.exe and the other two files under 'common files' in 'teleca shared' folder, and 'symbian' in 'shared' and 'symbianconnectruntime', respectively.
    Norton's control panel for Smart Firewall gave me three options when adding programs: allow, block and manual configure internet settings. The last of the three was recommended by Norton. However, I selected 'allow' for the generic.exe, symbianconnectruntim.exe and scba.exe.Please advise if you believe I need to modify the terms I entered to set up this procedure (is there a better setting that allow me to achieve the same level of functionality without compromising my security?)
    Now Joanne, whats left is for me to try the sync after making these changes. I feel as if I accomplished a lot by only reaching this far. I will have to do a reinstallation of the SE PC Suite before moving on though. Let me explain.
    When the sync failed repatedly because of the unexpected termination linked with the dxp syncml.exe, I uninstalled the SE PC Suite which was done from a disc, and installed a version from the Sony website. That version is 1.6.0, with a copyright date of 2006. With this, the sync worked. By the way I am using Windows 7 Starter. Now what I am going to do later is uninstall this version of the suite, and reinstall the one from the disc that was linked with the problem we are solving. When I do that later, I will give you feedback.
    Just in case you are wondering, I have a vested interest in using the PC Suite from the disc. This application works fine for the file manager component where the drive on the phone and removable media card are read. In the 1.6.0 version, I cannot get the file manager to see the phone as connected though when I put the card (is that called M2 disc?) in the phone, it reads. So, I although sync is working with the 1.6.0 version from the website, I want to use the version I have on disc if the sync component gets over the problem we are trying to solve.
    Hope I am on the right  track so far I thank you profusely for your patience and dealing with my qeurry; the solution will make a world of a difference for me and many other P1i owners. Look foward to the follow up

  • ITunes gives unknown error (-50) when syncing songs with iPhone

    I recently ripped a few mp3 files to my library and started up iTunes to sync them with my iPhone. If I recall correctly, this prompted me to upgrade to 9.2 of iTunes.
    Everything synced perfectly - apps, photos, excpet for the new songs I had ripped - I got the unknown error (-50) syncing the new songs. This puzzled me as I followed the exact same process as I had when ripping all the other songs in the library.
    I then removed an existing song from my iPhone, and tried the sync again, and now THAT song also failed to sync. Thus - it sure does not look like a problem with my mp3 files, but some sort of problem with iTunes.
    I found this article which was very similar, but ended up being only specific songs:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1539
    I followed all the steps there, but have yet to achieve success. I have also followed every iTunes upgrade since I started - I am currently at 9.2.1.5.
    I also have an iPod Touch, and it experiences the same symptoms, thus once again pointing to iTunes not the device. I even went through the process of restoring my Touch to factory settings, and that did not help. I even upgraded my Touch to 4.0, still no change. With this restore to factory settings, all the music on my Touch was wiped out, and unfortunately now NONE of my songs sync - which includes the almost 300 other songs that were synced perfectly fine before I did the restore.
    After the restore - photos, videos, etc. all synced fine - it is just music that has this problem. I do not suspect my USB connection as a result (some of my videos are very large) I have over 10GB free on my 1 GB Touch, and much more than that on my 32 GB iPhone.
    I am really stuck here - everything else is working but I can not get any new songs, and I am afraid of doing too much more in case I lose the songs I already have.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
    Brent.

    I just wanted to add that I have updated to iTunes 10, and this problem still exists.

  • ITunes 9.2 not syncing music with iPhone 3GS?

    I'm suddenly having trouble syncing music to my iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.0.1.
    I have iTunes set up so that it will only sync selected playlists, artists, and genres. When I make any changes to the selections, iTunes remembers it (even after closing and re-opening) but when I use the sync button, the music or playlists do not transfer. I see iTunes backing up the iphone, transferring purchased items, syncing applications, and then it finishes without transferring anything else.
    Anybody seen this before?

    Disable your firewall and then try. Once synching begins, then enable your firewall. Simple.

  • Help with iPhone 3GS (not restoring, seems to be in loop)

    Good morning!
    My phone has not warranty and before taking the next step of having to replace it I would like to read your suggestions or possible solutions for the problems I'm experiencing with my iPhone:
    I have an iPhone 3GS that fell into a cup of coffee. It didn't submerge completely and I was able to open it and dry it very quickly. When I opened it only the dock connection was wet (nothing on the battery or the motherboard). Either way I made sure to check every connection and made sure no coffee drops were left on the inside of the device.
    Here are the issues I've encountered since then:
    1. Afterwards I check the phone by plugin it into the wall charger. I turned on, screen looked OK and I was even prompted with the "Enter passcode" screen. I entered the password and immediately the screen went black and reset to the Apple logo. So long as I had the phone charging through the wall charger the Apple logo will constantly appear. No longer the password screen will show up and the phone seemed to be in a loop that started and ended with the blinking Apple logo. Once unplugged from the wall the iPhone will turn off and make no sound or show any signs of turning on again. 
    2. When connecting to the computer on the first attempt the iPhone will enter recovery mode (showing the connector and iTunes logo) and be recognized by both the computer and iTunes. iTunes will then prompt me to do a restore of the phone. I will follow the steps and "Restore and update" my iPhone. After "extracting the software" and "Verifying with Apple" to start the installation iTunes will prompt me with an error (I've repeated this step several times so there are several different errors I've encountered. Some of the errors include: 20, 21, 3194, 1600, 2001, 2003). After receiving the error iTunes will eject and no longer recognize the device. The iPhone (still connected to the computer) will no longer show the "Recovery Mode" logos and will start working in a loop (blinking Apple logo that appears to turn on and off as in a loop). The computer (device manager) will not recognize the iPhone either (no USB or ports showing the iPhone is still connected).
    My iPhone is not unlocked or jailbroken. Before the incident with the coffee I managed to synchronize and update its firmware as indicated by iTunes. The latest update for my iPhone was 5.0.1. firmware.  My intent is not to unlock or jailbrake the device, just to make it work again.
    Here are some things I've tried since:
    1. Exiting recovery mode via iReb, Tinyumbrella
    2. Entering DFU mode via iReb, Sn0wbreeze,
    3. Shift + Restore and using firmwares from 3.0 to 5.0 to downgrade or upgrade my iPhone.
    4. Add new hosts to my Host file
    5. Try sn0wbreeze and use IPSW to see if it is recognized by iTunes (iTunes recognizes the iPhone but then at the very last minute shows error 20, 21, 3194 or 1600.
    6. Save SHSH files and use Tinyumbrella to uploaded them to my iPhone.
    I would really appreciate if someone can help me on this. I might be doing something wrong or maybe not even considering the right steps to solve this issue. I don't know if there are missing drivers that are preventing the device from communicating with iTunes properly. Of some tool that can be used to correct this problem. It may or may not be fixable but I think it is worth the try.
    Thanks very much.

    I have the exact same problem as you (minus the coffee incident) where the phone just turned off. Tried everything you have too and now the above link is showing a 404 page... Can you help me out?

  • Sync Problem with iPhone 3Gs

    I actually have two problems that surfaced at the same time.
    I was using a iPhone 3G and updated to the 3Gs. At the same time, I upgraded my Mac Pro hard drive and in the process did a fresh installation of the OS. I am running Snow Leopard.
    First Problem:
    When I plug the iPhone to the computer now, it does not see it at all. I know that there is nothing wrong with my USB port because any other device plugged into that port works fine. In addition, I am running boot camp and if I boot to Windows 7, iTunes sees the iPhone on the same port without any problems.
    Second Problem:
    My original back up of the iPhone to iTunes is in my old drive. Is there a way to back up the iPhone to iTunes? In other words, I want to transfer all the information in my iPhone to iTunes. When I try to sync in Window 7 (the only one that works now) it tells me that it will erase my iPhone. I can't believe that there is no way to do that.

    First, make sure your settings are correct in iTunes (Preferences > Devices tab, make sure the box to prevent automatic syncing is not checked).
    Else, try downloading and installing the latest version of iTunes for the Mac OS (don't delete anything, just download and install).
    http://apple.com/itunes/download
    If that doesn't work, remove and reinstall AMDS.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747
    You can also check System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items tab and make sure there's an iTunesHelper app listed there - that's what recognizes the phone.
    RE your second problem, by design the iPhone syncs with one and only one iTunes library for iTunes-managed content (music, videos, apps, photos). Connecting to a different library (the iTunes library in Windows is a different library, even though it's on the same computer) results in content being erased and replaced with content from the new library.

  • Wifi syncing itunes with iphone

    I know that this is not supposed to be possible so can anyone tell me what's going on? I recently downloaded itunes for my netbook and the first time I ran it with my iphone 3Gs nearby it recognised the phone and had it listed correctly as my iphone. Not a usb cable in sight. And I have never connected my iphone to that computer. The icon for my iphone soon disappeared and has never come back.

    You cannot sync via Wi-Fi. The iPhone will show up in iTunes when on the same network if iTunes is set to look for remotes (the Remote app lets the iPhone control iTunes playback).

  • Photo sync issues with iPhone 3GS

    My wife is having two problems with photos on the iPhone.
    The first problem she is having is some photos that she wants on the iPhone will not sync because "The iPhone cannot display them". The photos are in JPG format, and she has several other JPGs on the iPhone.
    Which leads us to the second problem. When she syncs the iPhone with iTunes she gets duplicate photos on the iPhone. Also, they cannot be deleted as there is no trash icon when she browses them.
    Her phone is a 1 day old 16 GB 3GS, using a Win XP machine (iTunes 8.2.1.6)
    Any help is appreciated as she is very frustrated by this.
    Thanks,
    -Seth

    Photos transferred from the computer to the iPhone via the iTunes sync process are selected under the Photos tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Photos transferred via the iTunes sync process is a one way transfer process only - from the computer to the iPhone, and are removed from the iPhone in the same way - via the iTunes sync process - the same for music and video. Photos transferred to the iPhone via the iTunes sync process cannot be deleted by the iPhone. Photos captured by the iPhone - photos in the iPhone's camera roll can be deleted by the iPhone.
    Not sure about the photos that will not transfer problem - I've never had a problem transferring any photos from my Mac, which are all jpeg format.

  • Authorization error when syncing apps from iphone to mac, mac to iphone

    I am having this error with both apps I've synced from my iPhone to my Mac, and one I purchased from ITunes (which as a side problem, I can not sync to my iPhone no matter what I try). I have one iTunes account and it is the same on my computer and on my iPhone. However, the one I bought on my mac I can't authorize on my computer, and I can't sync some back because I get this same error message (I have all the latest software on phone and Mac):
    THERE WAS AN ERROR STORING YOUR AUTHORIZATION INFORMATION ON THIS COMPUTER
    The required directory was not found or has a permission error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions can not be changed.
    Is this just becuase these apps aren't made to USE on a computer? Because that would make sense. I'm just worried it has something to do with the app I purchased on ITunes not syncing back to my iPhone.

    I created a new user on my macbook and tried to authorize the computer but got the same authorization error. This doesn't have to do with the fact that I have once used a different iTunes account? (not since I have had the iPhone. I have tried to figure out how to delete this but it looks as if apple doesn't want me to.) Plus, it's the same email as my dot mac which I've ALSO been having trouble with the past few months-- it keeps resetting on its own and my keychain and iphone can't get into it. online chat has not solved the problem so i decided to just let it expire...
    Ive been using a mac for 15 years and have never had as many problems as i've had these past few months.

  • Cannot sync. itunes with iphone.

    I see my apps. on the itunes windows, but they will not transfer to my phone, why?

    There is no fix as of today from Apple.  However, here is an imperfect "workaround":
    Found a solution on another site that worked for me when I encountered the same problem (and did not want to pay for iPhoto 11):
    Press the option key while starting iPhoto, it will ask which library to use -- select "Create a new library." That will create an empty library.
    Quit iPhoto, then restart it with the option key to ensure it's using the new, empty library. Close iPhoto.
    Open iTunes -- if you're lucky (I was, finally), it should not crash when you select the iPhone. Now you can check that the "sync photos" option in iTunes is not selected.
    If you're using iPhoto, restart it with the option key to select a library -- select your older library.
    In case you're using Aperture as I am, I did not have to make any changes in the Aperture libraries. I've been able to keep Photo Stream enabled on the iPhone without complications, which meets my needs.
    Configuation - iMac, OS 10.7.3, iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1 (over the air update), iPhoto 8. I did not encounter the problem others have reported with iTunes crashing as soon as it was opened; but it did consistently when I selected the iPhone.
    Hope this helps.

  • Syncing itunes with iphone 4s

    My iphone does not show up as a device on itunes

    Spent about an hour on the phone today to Apple Care and got this sorted.
    Apparently it was due to a piece of software either missing or corrupt on the iPhone which affected the syncing process. The solution was to:first backup the iPhone using iTunes, then restore from that backup. Eject & disconnect the iPhone from the computer, and then reconnect it.
    Upon reconnection, iTunes gave the option of starting from scatch or restoring from a backup - select restore from backup (not sure why this had to be done twice, but went with it and it worked). It then transferred over all the music - job done!
    Hope that helps someone
    All the best

    Have you setup iTunes to sync music with your phone? When you plug your phone it, goto the music tab, and make sure that it is set to sync your library with iTunes.

    Hi Xiu,
    According to your description, I know that you configured an Exchange account with IMAP on Outlook and got error during syncing Inbox.
    I notice that the Outlook cannot receive to Inbox, how about sending emails?
    Please try to check whether the incoming server configured correctly.
    Please expand "Folder" in Outlook and check whether there are related Synchronization Logs in the "Sync Issues" folder. Detailed information without sensitive information would be helpful for the further troubleshooting.
