Getting a error -4 when trying to sync

getting a error -4 when trying to sync Ipad to PC after upgrade to 5.0.1

I have the same issue and I believe we need to upgrade to a newer OS X.  I currently have OS X Leopard 10.5.8 and I purchased OS X Snow Leopard 10.6 for $19.99 so that I can install iTunes 11.1.  This will hopefully allow me to eliminate the error and sync the iTunes from my iPhone 4s and Mac Book. 
iTunes 11.1 requires an OS X of at least 10.6

  • 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

    Locate the photos folder which is selected for syncing with the device and delete the folder iPod Photo Cache inside.

    Not possible, and since the Restrictions Passcode is included with your iPhone's backup, you must restore the iPhone as a new iPhone or not from the backup.

  • Why do I get an error message when trying to sync my ipads with my imac

    We have two ipads - version 2 I think - the last ones with the old style plug.  Both are running IOS 7.1.1  Over the last week, every time I try to sync either ipad with my imac (27" - about 18 months old) which is running OSX 10.9.2 I get the following error message.  "The Ipad cannot be synced. An unknown error has occurred (1723)"  In every case it takes a while for the error message to appear - the sync gives every impression of rolling along just fine through the various steps - when it reaches step 5 of 6 (syncing photos) it seems to hang up, then after a while the error message shows up. 
    Interestingly, there are no photos on the ipad, so nothing to sync to the imac, but I discovered all of this when I tried to sync some photos in the other direction, from iphoto to one of the ipads. All I got was the pin wheel of death. I am running the most current version of iphoto too.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this would be gratefully accepted.

    Can you create a test Project in PrE 9 and does that work. If so, close that Project and then Open it again in PrE 9.
    It could be as simple as your PrE 8 Projects just not Opening in PrE 9. There is often forward compatibility, but not always. It is usually best to finish Projects in the version, in which they were started.
    Good luck,

  • HT1632 Why do I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my workouts?

    I haven't been able to sync my workouts for the past few weeks. I have an iPhone4 and have always synced directly from my phone to Nike+. But over the last few weeks, when I try, I get the following error message:
    "Nike+iPold cannot sync workouts because Nike+ service is unvailable"
    I've made sure my phone is up to date software-wise, and even tried connecting it to my iTunes. The Nike+ app doesn't even show up in my iTunes.
    Any suggestions? I'm missing out on tons of workouts and really don't know what to do....

    Kind of hard to answer without some details such as iPhoto version and OS version. Are you signed into your Facebook account?

    I went to the Apple Genius Bar for help.  Somehow when I downloaded Mountain Lion one of the mail accounts on the computer changed from an IMAP account to a POP account.  The POP account doesn't enable the links in email.  It was a quick fix.  Just go to prefrences in your mail account and change it to an IMAP account.  Hope this works for you as it did for me.

  • Error -39 when trying to Sync iPhone (1 gen, 2.2)

    Hi All,
    A couple a days ago I started getting a *Error -39* when trying to sync my iPhone (1 gen, 2.2), any idea why is that and how do I sort it out? I've already tried rebooting my UMB and re-installing iTunes.
    Can anyone say what is the -39 referring to? Unfortunately Sir Google has no idea.
    Kind regards,
    Oskar

    Ok figured it out. Apparently I tried to sync a file that has been corrupted in some way. Clearing synchronization and setting up a new one resolved the problem.

    get error message when trying to sync iphone to puter that says"cannot connect because apple mobile divise is not started? what do i do?

    Restart your computer and the iPhone. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo. It is safe to do, there should be no content loss. It is the same as rebooting your computer.

  • I get error OxE80000084 when trying to sync my I Pod classic to I Tunes

    I get error OxE80000084 when trying to sync my Ipod classic to iTunes, what do I do?

    Hello aztecc16,
    The following articles provide some useful troubleshooting steps and information that can help get your iPod to work correctly with your computer.
    iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
    iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363
    Also, while the following article is tailored for iOS devices, it does contain some further information and troubleshooting should you still be having issues getting your iPod to work with your computer.
    1. Restart your computer.
    2. Install the latest version of iTunes.
    3. Verify that your computer meets the minimum system requirements. iOS devices require the following minimum version of Windows:
    Windows XP Service Pack 3
    Windows Vista
    Windows 7
    Windows 8
    4. Download and install any available software updates from Microsoft.5. Connect the device directly to your computer; not to an external USB hub. Find out if your computer has USB 2.0 ports.6. Check that the Dock Connector or Lightning Connector on both the device and cable are clean of any lint or other debris. If possible, connect your device using a different Apple 30-pin to USB cable or Apple Lightning Connector to USB cable.7. Disconnect other USB peripherals from your computer, with the exception of your keyboard and mouse. After disconnecting these peripherals, restart your computer, connect your device, and open iTunes.8. Connect your device to a different USB port on your computer.9. Use the Task Manager to stop some Apple Services:
    Launch the Task Manager:
    For Windows XP: Press Control + alt + delete on the keyboard.
    For Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8: Press Control + alt + delete on the keyboard. Then click "Start Task Manager". If Windows needs your permission to continue, click "Continue".
    Click the Processes tab of the Task Manager. End each of these three processes by clicking in their names and choosing "End Process":
    iTunesHelper.exe
    AppleMobileDeviceService.exe
    iPodService.exe
    After ending these processes, reboot your computer, open iTunes, and test.
    10. Connect your device to a different computer to determine whether the issue is specific to your computer.
