Get error when trying to upgrade to IOS5 - An error occured while trying to Back up ipad  -402653138

Help
I am trying to upgrade to IOS5 and i cant get past the backup step of the upgrade - I keep getting An error occured while trying to Back up ipad  (-402653138).  I have tried removing my current backup and letting the update do the backup but still get same message.
I also get a warning right when I start the upgrade process that says I have purchased apps that have not been transfered and wants to know if I want to continue???  Not sure why I get this warning - I have ran the transfer purchases option several times and it seems to work.  However, if I go under store and look at the purchases for my ipad it dosnt show any???  I would assume it should? 
I have tried syncing and backing up, rebooting, all latest versions of itunes, etc. 
Any ideas or help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Erik

I took a leap of faith and finally got the update with no issues.  Here's what I did:
First did yet another backup.  Next, disabled all anti-virus and anything related (running Norton 360).  Next, turned off Home Sharing.
Instead of "Update" I selected "Restore".  Followed prompts as though I wanted to restore and update. Selected my latest backup and off it went.  First did the wipe, then ios5 update, then restarted and began to sync.  Sync took about 2 hours as I have lots of apps, photos and some TV shows I forgot were on there. 
In the end, I had the exact same configuration.  All apps on their pages as before the update, all folders intact and even all game scores and data from apps.  Hurray!
Now just going through the App update process of the many (85) that showed up in App Store icon.
Hope this helps!

    That typically indicates a problem with your VBScript. See the following troubleshooting article:

    Upgraded to 5.4 when opening lightroom get a message "encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and need to quite" tried this several time but get the same error message.  Says Lightroom will attempt to fix the problem the next time it launches but that is not happening.  How do it fix this?

    Delete the preview cache using your operating system. It is a folder whose name ends with Previews.LRDATA. Do not delete the Lightroom catalog, which ends with .LRCAT

    I am using Adobe Reader with paid up service through May 2015.  When I attempt to convert a file either to PDF or from PDF, I get the error message, "An error occurred while trying to access the service".  What do I need to do to get access to the service I have paid for?

    Hi DeaconTomColorado,
    Please see "Error occurred when trying to access this service" when logging on to Acrobat.com.
    Adobe has just released an update to Adobe Reader, so if you're accessing the service via Reader, please let us know whether the update helps resolve the issue.

  • An error occurred while trying to connect to a Web service, when InfoPath web enabled form loads.

    Hi Everyone,
    I am getting an error message: An error occurred while trying to connect to a web service, when my InfoPath form tries to load.  The last few days, it only spits this error message in the morning and around 12pm-1pm it resolves itself and the form loads
    fine the rest of the day, oddly enough. 
    A few things about my form:
    1). It is web enabled
    2). The form submits to a form library on the SP server
    3). I use the UserProfileService data connection in the form to auto-populate a few fields
    4). I use a udcx file with correct language stored in the root of the site collection in the data connection library
    5). The form has been working fine until a few days ago
    I noticed while in Central Administration, that the User Profile Service Synchronization is Stopped.  Not sure if this is causing some or all of the problem. If I need to start it I will need to contact my farm administrator to do this, since I do not
    have the service account information.
    Also, I looked thru the log files on the SharePoint server and found the following by searching for the Correlation ID shown when the error comes up, I won't put in everything just the important messages.
    Schema file was already loaded: BuiltInActiveXControls.xsd
    FormServer Partial Trust - Proxy operation invoked in the SHIM process.
    FormServer Partial Trust - Invoking proxy operation for Web service adapter failed with exception Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object. for Url=https://<SP URL>/_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx
    Data adapter failed during OnLoad: The custom code in the form cannot be run. This functionality may be deactivated on the server. For more information, contact the server farm administrator.
    The following query failed: GetUserProfileByName (User: , Form Name: Expense Report, IP: , Connection Target: <SP URL>/Data Connections/GetUserProfileByName.udcx, Request: , Form ID: urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:infopath:Expense-Report:-myXSD-2014-04-11T21-06-32
    Type: DataAdapterException, Exception Message: The custom code in the form cannot be run. This functionality may be deactivated on the server.

    Hi B.,
    You are on the right track. I recommend that you first get the User Profile Synchronization Service started because that itself could be the root cause of the issue.
    If that doesn't fix it then focus your attention on the GetUserprofileByName data connection. I always use my secure store ID for this connection. I add the ID by editing the udcx file and then publishing it again.
    Hope this helps.

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

  • Trying to upgrade to Mountain Lion, error is  message; " product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed"

    trying to upgrade to Mountain Lion, error   message; " product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed" ??
    what to do? This is in App store. I followed the link e-mailed to me that an upgrade was available....... Puzzled.

    Several causes for this problem have been reported. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when it's resolved.
    Step 1
    Back up all data.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.
    Step 2
    Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
    Step 3
    Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Are you behind a firewall or double NAT??
    What is the device that is immediately plugged into the main modem or router? Has that one been able to update?
    It is plugged in of course isn't it.. no nasty join wireless anywhere??
    The best way to work around these sort of problems is to simplify the network.. Plug each device directly into the main router.. by ethernet. You can trigger the firmware upgrade by wireless but use ipad or iphone version of airport utility and see what happens.

  • Why do I get: "An error occurred while trying to submit your post. Please try again."

    Hi, I get this error: "An error occurred while trying to submit your post. Please try again." when trying to reply to a post. Just started today. How can I resolve this?

    There are certain words and phrases which are banned because of spammers: if you inadvertently include one of these you usually get the message that you have included content which is not allowed.
    I've had the 'an error occurred' message several times; in each case I've copied the post, clicked the 'Cancel' button, waited a few seconds than then replied again, pasting in the text, and it's worked. It appears to be juste a server glitch.

    Probably you have never experienced this, but I have lost the ability to iMessage.
    When I try to turn on iMessage, it tells me that "an error occurred while trying to turn on iMessage." 
    It's not a huge deal, but people with iPhones can't text me back unless they try to re-send after finding out that their message wasn't delivered.
    Help!
    I think I have gone through every support option available, short of
    Scheduling an appointment at the Genius Bar. But I have been to the store three times in the last three weeks.
    To solve a different problem, the folks at the store replaced my iPhone 4S.
    I came home and loaded my backup onto the new phone. Everything EXCEPT iMessage seems to be working great.
    I would really appreciate any feedback...

    Hi bert090909,
    Are you trying to convert your files from within Adobe Reader? If so, please make sure that you have the most current version by choosing Help > Check for Updates. Earlier versions of Reader could cause the specific error that you're reporting.
