Help--Ipod recognized but can not be synced. the disk is full

My son gave me his shuffle which was used on a PC. I have a Mac but when I try to sync it says: The Ipod "Nate's Ipod" cannot be synced. the disk you are attempting to use is full. I tried to repair the ipod disk with disk utility but it came up with an error message that it failed. Any ideas?

Have you tried Restoring it in iTunes?

    Oh my God! I'm having the exact problem with my new 30G iPod with video, which I got as a replacement with my warranteed iPod. It resets itself when I sync, or even when I restore the iPod. I was on the phone for two hours with multiple Apple technicians, who couldn't figure out what's wrong and asked me to send it for repair. You know what? They couldn't find anything wrong with it, so they sent it back. Not surprisingly, it still doesn't work. To be sure that it's not my system that's causing this problem, I tried syncing on two computers, two operating systems (WINDOW XP and OS X), and two USB cables. So I'm definitely sure it's not my system, which leads me to think I also got a LEMON! Now I am on the phone yet again, actually am being put on hold for the millionth time. I wonder if michlexi, or anyone with the same problem, was able to find resolution??

  • I'm from the USA but am on vacation in Brazil; I have a great WiFi connection but can not connect to the iTunes Store. Is this because I am out of the Country?

    I'm from the USA but am on vacation in Brazil; I have a great WiFi connection but can not connect to the iTunes Store. Is this because I am out of the Country?

    Thank you very much for your insight; I guess I had assummed that iPads/iPhones/iPods were here in Brazil and further assumed that the iTunes store would also be available.

  • Itunes application can not be open the disk can not be read from or writte

    itunes can not be opened the disk can not be read from or written to. That is the warning i get when i click my itunes to open it. Problem...
    there is no disk:) i have no idea what this warning means.. i have restarted and nothing.. i updated itunes and same warning.. there is no disk in the drive at all..
    infact i made sure i was in a room with no other disks.. Help??

    A few things to try:
    • Restore Permissions, using Disk Utility (in ~Applications/Utilities)
    • Set the correct Ownership & Permissions for the iTunes folder:
    Select the iTunes folder in ~/Users/YourUsername/Music.
    Get Info (command-I).
    Expand 'Ownership & Permissions' and 'Details:'
    You must read: 'You can Read & Write': if not, change it.
    Click on the 'Apply to enclosed items...' button.
    Hope this helps.

  • Using Photoshop Elements 12 on my MacBook Pro laptop, when saving a file I have been working on I get the following message although there is at least 50GB free space on the hard drive:  Could not save because the disk is full.

    I have been making Christmas Cards, working in layers and then flattening the image.  However, I am unable to save the final image as I get the following message:  Could not save because the disk is full.  Looking at the system report for my laptop shows there is 52GB of free space.

    Well, running on a 2006 model.  I did not have a startup disc.  Initially, it booted up on original software in 2006.  Since then, I've upgraded to 10.6 via a box set.  And, since then I think I popped it up to lion. 
    All I have on a disc is snow leopard.  And, I can't get farther than the setup screen due to hard drive.  I'm taking to a apple authorized repair store right now.  We'll see what they tell me .  I'm just going to weigh the cost of repair vs. buying new.
    Another bad, stupid thing is I had no means of backing up my stuff.  So, I might have lost things like music, vids, etc.  we'll see if they can recover.  If the cost is too much for repair I might just forget it and start over with a new system.  Just not sure at this point.

  • TS1538 iPod can not be synced the required  file can not be found

    ipod canot be synced the required file cannot be found

    Hi folks. Am REALLY struggling here and hoping for some help. I too am constantly getting the 'iPhone can not be synced' message since upgrading to a new MacBook and trying to sync my iPhone 3GS. Have tried updating to latest iPhone software and hasn't helped. Have tried all the stuff mentioned above (dumping that file etc) and no luck. When I go to my sync page for photos, even if i un-tick the sync photos option altogether, this error keeps appearing. Very odd and very frustrating. Can't sync - seems to stall at last step of the process every time.
    I'm guessing it is photo related as the pics on my iPhone are now all lowres and blurry, and it is asking for sync to iTunes to get high res images onto the phone.
    Also have problem going the 'other way'! WHen I go to iPhoto on Mac and try to download new photos taken on iPhone.. I keep getting the message 'The following file could not be imported. The file is an unrecognized format."
    help please

  • When i sync my iphone i get the error message. The iphone "patrick's iphone" can not be synced. the required disk can not be found.

    when i sync my iphone i get this message. The iphone "patricks iphone" can not be synced. The required disk space can not be found.

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore from Backup..  Restore as New...
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

  • New MBPro...airport connection established but can not connect to the internet...help! suggestions?

    Hi all, trying to set up my MBPro...seems to be connecting to my AirPort Base Station w/out any troubles...but when I try to get online I'm getting a "can't connect to the Internet" message. I checked my network settings, restarted multiple times, etc. No luck. Seems to be a problem with the IP address (I think)...but not sure how to resolve it. I have an iMac and iPhone in the house that are able to connect and get online w/out issues. Any thoughts? TY!!

    Are you asking the make/model of the computer or the AX base station?
    Neither, I was interested in the make/model of the cable modem.
    Our ethernet connection was fried in an electrical storm so we had to go wireless.
    Electrical storms are never a good thing when it comes to electronics. What was/is your current network configuration? Is it something like the following?
    Cable modem > (Ethernet cable) > AX > (wireless) > wireless devices
    Is there another router, other than the AX, in the configuration? ... or an Ethernet switch? I'm just trying to understand your network to best advise you on how to configure the AX.

  • NEED HELP, WIRELESS CONNECTED BUT CAN NOT CONNECT TO INTERNET

    SOMEWHAT COMPUTER CHALLENGEDMY LINKSYS SAYS IT IS CONNECTED WITH GOOD CONNECTION, BUT I CAN NOT GET MY WIRELESS COMPUTER TO CONNECT TO INTERNET, BY HARDWIRED COMPUTER CONNECTS FINE. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WERE I NEED TO START?

    If you want some input from Linksys you have to contact Linksys support. This is a community forum...
    Check the following please:
    1. The computer wired to the router has internet access.
    2. On the computer wired open http://192.168.1.1/ in your browser. The username remains empty the default password is "admin". You may have changed the password during initial setup.
    3. Click on Wireless. Take a note of the Wireless Network Mode (mixed, b only, g only), the Wireless Network Name, Channel, and whether SSID broadcasts are enabled or not. If you still have the default network name "linksys", please change it to something unique and save the settings for this page.
    4. Next, click on Wireless Security and note the settings in this tab. It will be easier for troubleshooting if you post the current wireless settings noted.
    5. Now use the wireless computer (if it was the one wired to the router before, unplug it) and let it search for wireless networks. It should find a wireless network with the "Wireless Network Name" from 3. Try to connect to this network. If it asks for a passphrase or key, you have to enter the passphrase from 4. for WPA/WPA2. If you have WEP encryption in 4. you have to enter "Key 1" not the passphrase!
    6. If the connection fails please posts the exact error message you see.
    7. If the connection succeeds, try to open a URL in the internet, e.g. http://www.google.com/
    8. If it does not work open a command prompt window: Start - Run... - "cmd". Enter "ipconfig /all". Copy the output of this command into your next post.

  • Can connect to LAN wirelessly but can not connect to the internet.

    The problem:
    I can connect to the wireless router and modem router wireless and can browse the router setting web pages etc without issue. However i can not browse the internet, send or receive mail etc.
    The setup:
    A Belkin/iinet modem connects to the internet (ip 10.1.1.1), a DLink 565 then broadcasts the signal wirelessly (ip 10.1.1.100).
    What i have tried:
    Trusty old powercycle
    I know the internet is working via the wifi as my ipod touch has full internet functionality through my wifi.
    I have tried using ip address instead of urls to browse the web to no luck.
    I have tried deleting Libary\Preferences\SystemConfiguration\preferences.plist
    I have tried reseting the DHCP lease.
    The only other thing i know works (eventually) is if i constantly change locations back and forth and turn airport on and off repeatedly, eventually i will get on the wifi but that can take upwards of an hour.
    The macbook also works fine via ethernet connected to the wireless router.

    Check these details:
    1. Right click your wireless connection
    2. Select STATUS
    3. Select the SUPPORT tab
    4. Select the DETAILS button
    You should see a page with all sorts of network details.
    Make sure that you see the following:
    1. You have an assigned IP address from your router
    2. You have a default gateway address -- typically the IP address of your router.
    3. A primary and alternate DNS server address (the router gets
    these from your ISP and passes them along during DHCP connect
    processing.)
    I found that step #3 did not happen reliably. Your mileage may vary. I set DNS server values into my router, based on what I got from my ISP, so that the connect-time data handoff was not required. A large part of my troubles went away.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time?
