I keep getting different errors when trying to sync my Ipod Classic.

I get the following: Unknown error -50, a duplicate file name has been specified, unknown error 1342, the ipod could not be located, the ipod is corrupt. I have bought a few new cds and wanted to sync them, but it won't let me do anything. I have restored it several times. I have also deleted and reinstalled Itunes twice. Please help. It has been 5 days and I need my music.

I seemed to have figured it out...... I hard reset my Iphone and rebooted my computer and it seemed to work. It also seemed there was a music file that was not being recognized, I just erased it and everything worked fine after that.... very strange but I am so glad I figured it out.....

Try my script FindTracks. Select a few of the missing files to start with then run the script. Choose No at the first prompt so that you can check how it works track by track, then confirm or edit the location of the media folder where your files are. Once you are happy with how it behaves let it process larger numbers of tracks automatically.

I repeatedly receive an error message when trying to sync my ipod touch with my itunes library with my new computer which reads, "Some of the items in the itunes library were not copied to the ipod because you are not authorized on this computer." However when I try and authorize my computer I always receive the message that this computer is authorized. What am I doing wrong? I'm missing about 100 songs as a result of this error!!

Could the items be purchased by another account?

I'm trying to sync my ipod classic with itunes but the error message says that it can't be synced because the required disck can't be found. What does this mean?

I'm trying to sync my ipod classic with my itunes library, but I get a message saying it can't be synced because the required disk can't be found. How do I find what this disk is? I have over 2,000 songs in my itunes library but only 497 sync. Help!

Could any of the music have been sourced on an external USB drive or a network drive? In iTunes, go to one of the songs that won't sync. Bring up the info page, and look at the location of that song on the disk. Does that file and path exist? That could be your problem, especially if they were on a USB drive you forgot about.

I'm having sync issues too since I've updated to 11.0.4. My ipod 160 will no longer sync properly or will hang when attempting to sync yet my 4th gen touch doesn't have any problems. I am thinking about uninstalling it and rolling back to an older version of itunes.

ITunes quits unexpectedly when trying to sync my iPod classic

I have been trying to sync my iPod with iTunes and I keep getting the message "The application iTunes quit unexpectedly". I can relaunch, report or ignore. If I relaunch, it just quits again. I recently purchased an iPhone and I have been syncing it and have not synced the iPod since I got the iPhone. Now when I try, I get this message. I can sync the iPhone with no problem but as soon as I plug in the iPod, iTunes quits.
I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled, to no avail. I am not sure what else to do. I would restore the iPod, but iTunes quits before I can. I do not want to lose my entire music library so I don't want to do anything drastic. I also want to be able to sync my iPod.
Does anyone know what I can do? Also, I am running Mac OS X 10.5.8. Should I update?

I don't really have anything else running and it works when I sync my iPhone, so I doubt it is the RAM. My computer is less than a year old, so I don't think it is that either. It is like it doesn't 'like' the iPod since I got the iPhone. I know that sounds crazy, but it worked fine prior to getting the iPhone, but now, since I have the iPhone, it doesn't want to 'play' with the iPod.

HT4872 getting a ssl error when trying to sync google contacts

When I try to sync my calendar and contacts to google I get a ssl error. I try using the sync without and still get unable to verify. I've gone to advance and set the port to 443 as well

Keep in mind that turning off 2-step verification reduces the level of security associated with the Google account. If you want to maintain it and sync your google contacts, here is what to do:
Access your Google account settings. If you are in Gmail, simply click on your e-mail address in the upper-right corner and select the 'Account' link.
Click 'Security' in the left sidebar. Then click 'Settings' under the 2-Step Verification section.
You will be prompted to sign in again. Once done, click the 'Manage application-specific passwords' link.
Follow the instructions to generate a new application-specific password.

Error -50 & -69 When trying to sync music Ipod Classic 160gb

Hi everybody,
I recently installed an x64 version of Windows 7 Ultimate. I have an Ipod Classic 160gb (late 2009), and i am trying to sync it to my itunes library. However, everytime i do so, it will copy across a few songs (a different number everytime, no more than 500 though) my Itunes freezes up (as well as the ipod). After a while, once it "comes back to life" i get either "Itunes cannot copy {Song Name} to {Ipod Name} Ipod. An unknown Error Occurred (-50)." or "Itunes cannot copy {Song Name} to {Ipod Name} Ipod. An unknown Error Occurred (-69)".
Here is what i have tried:
Enable Disc Use - No Luck
Uninstall / Reinstall Itunes + Rebuild of Library - No Luck
Uninstall Itunes, reinstall + Rebuild Library on Previous version (9.2) of Itunes - No Luck
Kill APSDaemon.exe While synching - No Luck
KIll all other Apple Services + Processes - No Luck
Uninstall Antivirus - No Luck
Reformat Ipod - No Luck
Create a Virtual x32 environment of Windows 7, and recreate my library using the latest Itunes - No Luck
Virtualize a Mac environment, and try on there - MAC OSX doesn't allow virtualization on a Windows "Base" (what a piece of ****) - SO, no luck
Media Monkey Transfer - freezes up like a dead body, then just crashes.
Manually transfer - Work sometimes, doesn't work otherimes. Seems to be Random.
I know you are all going to say "oh, the song it get stuck on is corrupt". Well, it isn't. The song plays fine in Itunes if i go to investigate. When i go to my music "source" it is an actuall file, with an actual file size. I can also play it with VLC media player as well.
Sync with my Dad's IMAC - Success. My Dad has 5.5gb of music (more than 500 songs). Although Ipod did get seem to get stuck on a couple of songs, it succesfully sync'ed
Use Sharepod - Success (although, i have 2940 folders, and sharepod will only allow me to transfer one folder at a time) - So, No Luck
I know the Ipod is fine because if i Sync via MAC or Sharepod, it will play music fine.Also, before the installation of the x64, it sync'd fine. It would be silly that an Ipod dies because i change my Windows Installation.
Another thing, while in the act of Synching, the IPOD screen displays "Synchronising", then, it will just go to "Connected". On the MAC it stayed as "Synchronising" the entire time.
Basically, i am at my wits end. I have tried everything i can think of. I now have a very expensive paper weight, which is ******** me to tears.
If anybody has any solutions, or ideas, i would love to hear them.
Thanks,
Lachlan

You seem to have tried everything, and you say it's syncing fine on your Dad's iMac, so I assume, you have also done a Disk Diagnostic from an earlier post by tt2 and conclude that your iPod Hardisk is good.
You don't have to use it as a heavy paperweight, the problem is only using your Windows 7 machine for syncing.
In your troubleshooting steps, did you try to use another High-Speed USB 2.0 port, USB controller resource are very scarce, so if you use other USB devices, while syncing your iPod, it may just freeze.
Windows have a bad reputation for device conflict, so better don't connect other USB devices, while syncing, better sync it while disconnected from Internet, stop antivirus just before you go to bed.
Have a nice day!

I get the following error when trying to sync (Iphone 4s): ....The disk can not be read from or written to." HELP!

I repaid the disks, its problems with Iphoto, should I just reset the iphoto and start from scratch?

I am encountering the same problem -- though with .qfx files from my bank. This worked fine in Firefox 31 ESR, but since upgrading to Firefox 33.0, I get the "<name>.qfx.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read" when I attempt to download. (I should add that downloading PDF statements from the same site works fine, and that the qfx downloads work fine in IE and Chrome.)
I tried safe mode, it is still broken. Tried v34 beta, no luck. I reverted to version 31, it works again.
I guess I will stick with the older version until a solution is found...or just use an alternate browser to download my financial data.

I've suddenly, as of today, started getting the following error when trying to sync calandars. no supported calendar application can be found

I'm running Windows 7 HP and ITunes 10.5.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks

The same thing started on mine after I upgraded to 8.1. I have a PC and have never had a calendar app to sync. I have always had the "no supported app can be found message" on the info tab for the iPhone and the check box for syncing calendars at the bottom of the iPhone info tab is unchecked.
Never had a problem before 8.1. Now with 8.1, I get the error message about an error merging data. 8.1 was behaving like it was always try to sync a calendar, regardless if one exists or not and regardless of whether the sync calendar box is unchecked at the bottom of the info tab, and if it doesn't you get the error message.
I noticed that the unchecked calendar box is not greyed out at the bottom of the info tab, so I checked it, and hit sync again. That seemed to fix the problem for me. After checking the box once and syncing, the box is now again unchecked, but I don't get the error message anymore.

I am getting a -50 error when trying to sync my IPOD Classic with XP.
