How to fix an unknown error occurred -54

anyone to know about this can you show me how to fix thanks a lot

It would help if you would tell us in which context this is occurring.
== Error -54 ==
From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
First, try simply restarting your computer.

  • Do anybody know how to fix an unknown error

    Do anyone know how to fix an unknown error #1439 on ipod classc?
    Why the option import cd is gone now if you Itunes 10.5?

    Hello there, please verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
    Try these steps
    Step 1. Connect a Ethernet cable to your macbook no wifi.
    Step 2. Open iTunes
    Step 3.Plug in your iPhone to your macbook
    Step 4.  Put the device into DFU mode.
    DFU MODE STEPS
    Hold the Power Button (3 secs)
    Continue holding the power button and also hold the home button (15 secs)
    Release the power button while continuing to hold the home button (10 secs)
    You Should have black screen with nothing on the screen if done correctly.
    Step 5: iTunes will either prompt to restore and update click restore and update
    Just sit back and wait until you see the setup screen on your iphone if you still see error 53 is a hardware problem and needs to be replace by Apple.

  • Itunes artwork display issue and a fix for  'unknown error occured (-50)'

    Too bad they dont have stickies. This would be a great one.
    This is a thorough fix for art work and the -50 error.
    If you see artwork in itunes, first verify that the artwork is in the mp3 tag using a program like "tag and rename" http://www.softdepia.com/tagrename_download1291.html
    If the artwork shows up in tag and rename, then you added it correctly.
    If the artwork isn't displaying on ipod, delete the song and retransfer to the ipod. Next make sure the "view artwork" check box is checked. To do this connect your iPod to iTunes and there will be a checkbox that should be checked to see if you want artwork to show up on your iPod.
    If you get this message -
    The ipod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured (-50).
    And have no artwork at all in you IPOD , dont fret. I am getting there..
    NO you DO NOT NEED to FORMAT YOUR IPOD YET as commonly posted. I have tested and retested the following fix-
    Eject IPOD. Kill ITUNES.
    Backup the following files
    iTunes Library.itl
    iTunes Music Library.xml
    & anything in the Previous Itunes library folder
    and delete them. More info on these at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93732
    Dont worry, its much easier to recreate the database than to wipe your IPOD.
    Next Start up ITUNES. Plug in IPOD. You now should have a empty database.
    At this time, uncheck copy ARTWORK to IPOD, and when it's done deleting artwork, CHECK Copy ARTWORK to IPOD.
    It now should sucessfully display ARTWORK and not get the -50 error!!
    Now, goto you ITUNES Music folder and drag to the library and it will add you music back in, including your PODCASTS.
    All you need to do is click the RESUBSCRIBE button and you are back in business!
    IF this fails, which i cant DUPLICATE anymore, try this
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300248
    Its the DREADED IPOD FORMAT article.
    But you probably wont need it if you follow all these steps.
    Post back if this doesnt work and if it does, give me some credit;)

    Just as an fyi, to shorten this procedure instead of deleting the files i found out you and open the .itl files and delete all the lines in it so its an empty file.
    Then open itunes, and it will rebuild the database with the files from the .xml file.
    This saves you from having to rescan the songs..

  • How do I fix, "An unknown error occured (1150)"

    This error occurs when I try to sync my iPad.  I have tried a re-start, and I have tried disabling restrictions.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    Thanks tonefox.  In fact, I did start exactly there, (your link) and after a lengthy search with Google, found the two most common answers - "a re-start", and "disabling restrictions".  Unfortunately, these did not work for me.  Then, in iTunes, in the "Photos" section, I unchecked the checkbox beside "Sync Photos from (a specific folder) and tried again.  This time it worked!  Problem solved!

  • How to fix "an internal error occurred" in reader 9.1

    When using Acrobat reader 9.1 in Windows XP professional the end user gets "an internal error occurred"
    This happens when double clicking the pdf, or launching the program.
    This only happens as the end user, if signed in as administrator reader works fine.
    If the end user is given admin rights it works fine.
    Problem is the end users are not allowed to have admin rights. So this is not my solution.
    I've uninstalled / reinstalled it does not seem to fix it.
    Any solutions?
    Thanks
