  • I am trying to download an app and keep getting this error message: "Could not sign in. An unknown error has occurred" keeps popping up.

    This is a question for a mini iPad...
    I am trying to download an app and keep getting this error message: "Could not sign in. An unknown error has occurred.  I have tried shutting down and restarting. I've tried changing the password. I get the error message with free and not free apps. Any suggestions on how to fix?

    Reports are that this is a problem with the iTunes Store that they're working on. Some people have had success after signing out of their account and back in. If that doesn't work for you, wait a few hours or perhaps until tomorrow and by then they may have the problem sorted out.

    How have you managed to get apps on your phone that are tied to a different and unknown AppleID?
    If these apps were not purchased by you, having them is effectively software piracy and you should purchase them using your own AppleID if you want to keep hem.

    You probably didn't install iTunes from a user account with Administrator privileges.

  • Please help!! Ipod classic error message: "...cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified

    So I bought a "new to me" Ipod classic (gen 7, 160 gb) I have a gen 6-160gb already but I wanted the gen 7. I bought this one used from GameStop(i did purchase the warranty so if there is no solution I may have to put it to use). It was not restored to factory settings or anything when I purchased it. So to start out I restored to factory settings. It had originally been used for a Mac, and I operate with Windows so it wouldn't do anything unless I restored it and started over fresh. I tried to sync it but it gave me an error message (i cannot recall what it said- but i believe it was the same as i am getting now). It only synced about half my songs (I have over 3000 on Itunes and it only did about 1400). I tried to restore factory settings again and after it finished it showed all my songs on the ipod, but the error message still popped up. My songs play on my ipod just fine it shows all my songs and all my playlists. everything seems to be working fine but the message still returns. I plug in my Ipod to sync and instead of showing the screen where it tells you about firmware and updates etc that I always got with my other ipod it, the 'welcome to your new ipod' screen like it did after I restored it.
    Can anyone help me fix this problem???? or am I royally screwed and need to throw in the towel?
    Just to specify so there's no confusion:
    Ipod in question- Classic Gen7 160gb
    Ipod software version- 2.0.4 (as of 3/2/15)
    Itunes version- 12.0.1.26
    OS- Windows 7 64bit
    if there is any other information needed please let me know (and an idea of how to find it.)
    Im afraid to sync my Gen6 or other ipods (2 gen4 shuffles that are for my kids) for fear of something similar happening to them.

    This error can also come from WireTap Pro or possibly Snapz Pro ! Look in your personal library itunes plug ins folder for anything called iToner - I found it in there and promptly removed it and now its working again... I never bought iToner but apparently Ambrosia software puts a supplement file in there so look around for it if you have any Ambrosia software products on your system you maybe need to hunt this little monster down.....
    Needless to say I will never trust itunes plug in again from anyone.....

  • Error message Ipod shuffle cannot be synced. required disk cannot be found.

    I just bought the ipod shuffle. I loaded about 110 songs. Then the next day I wanted to load just 9 more and it wouldn't let me giving me the "cannot be synced. required disk cannot be found. Please answer. This is frustrating.

    I remember getting that msg periodically when I got my shuffle, but now it's extremely rare [I've not seen one in more than two months].
    I donno what causes it, but what always worked for me was to eject the shuttle, un-dock it, quit iTunes, launch it again, cycle iPod power (turn it off if it's on, and on if it's off) once or twice, put it back on the dock, and voila!

  • I am trying to log into my college website that uses Mozilla and get this msg: CPIP Notification: The system 'gapps' is responding too slowly or not at all, please try again after a short wait.

    I have not any trouble logging into my school gmail account or Moodle until yesterday and for some reason now I keep getting this weird message. I am an online student and must have this working. Any ideas?

    Your university runs Luminis. CPIP is part of the single sign on between Luminis -- your school's portal -- and an external system. However, sometimes things can go awry. This is purely an issue between the portal and the external system -- not your browser. As a Luminis admin, my advice to you is to escalate this to your school's help desk.

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go
