I cannot sync or restore my ipod. Sometimes it works and at times it doesn't. All I get is error -42408? Please help.

I did try updating everything and it worked ONCE! Once I plugged in my ipod a second time error -42408 keeps popping up.

See the appropriate section of this Apple support document under specific error codes.

    If you get the same errors on different computer and with different computers then contact Apple : iOS: Restore errors 4005, 4013, and 4014 :

  • CAnnot sync or restore my iPod

    I lost my iPod last year and bought another one. I found the old one in my couch yesterday but I cannot sync or restore it.

    Without more info like the current status of the iPod and what happens when you try to restore:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

  • I have plugged my ipod 4th gen into my computer to reset it, and after agreeing to the trems a window pops up saying " it cannot restore your ipod. check your network settings or try again later. i dont know what to do! please help

    hello. my ive been trying to restore my ipod touch 4th gen because it was frozen on the apple logo. i got it to go to the connect to itunes image. i plugged it into my computer to try and restore. i open itunes and it says "you must restore this ipod to use itunes". i click ok and then i accept the terms. after that it shows that it will take 41 mins to restore, but then it says "we connot restore this, there was a problem. it also says to check your network connections or try again" my network connetions are on and its still not working! please help

    Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

  • I cannot sync my phone because my device is locked and the screen is broken. how can i get around this?

    My screen on my iPhone 5s 16g has broken and i just received a new one in the mail. i want to sync my old phone to iTunes so i can restore my new one, but cannot sync do to the fact that my screen is broken and i am unable to unlock the phone… how can i get around this?

    You don't. If you use a 3rd party to "fix it" or attempt to do it yourself, Apple will reject the return and charge you the full price of the phone as if you had not returned it at all.
    It's too late. You should have been backing up before it failed.

  • I restored my IPod th other day, and I lost EVERYTHING. How do I get all my music and pictures back?

    I restored my Ipod touch the other day. I lost literally EVERYTHING. How do I get all my pictures back, and all my music back?

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you have a backup of the iPod (iTunes>Preferences>Devices), restoring from that backup will restore photos taken by or saved to the iPod up to when the backup was made. The backup does not contain synced itemslike apps and music.

  • Why does my ipad not have sound? Sometimes it does and other times it doesn't...

    My Ipad2 has a small crack the size of my pinky fingernail, and some times it does not have sound...

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • I opened my iPod nano 6g to fix the sleep button and now when i connect i get an error message, PLEASE help!!

    earlier i was bored and decided to open my iPod Nano 6th Generation to see if i could fix the broken sleep button, i think when i was removing the battery i might have beat it up a little, and idk if i did anything wrong to the logic board, now when i connect it it says, "USB Device Not Recognized, One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it" and it gets hot when i charge it and the music doesnt play even if i use the headphones with controls on them, it was working fine earlier:(

    They are pretty much designed to fail after about a year so you will have to buy a replacement.  I would suggest an earlier model or to take your business elsewhere.  I have gone through my fourth and final ipod nano 6th generation.

  • Trying to sync iPhone 4 with itunes and get an error message PLEASE help

    I am currently using and iPhone 4. This morning I had synced my iPhone with itunes and it was working fine. I came home and wanted to add some music and such to it and all of a sudden i will plug it in to itunes and i,t looks like its going gets to step 2 of 6 (which is the back up process) and then an error message comes up saying itunes has stopped working, my only option to do is exit the window..
    Any ideas why this would be the case? its really frustrating me. I am also not the most computer savvy.
    Thanks

    Try reinstalling iTunes  http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    If that doesn't help, if you are using a Windows based computer, could be your anti virus software or your firewall that's preventing the sync.
