Have you been able to verify that your iPod is functioning properly by hooking it up to another computer?
If so, then here's a REAL shot in the dark.
Restart your computer and go into the Bios and turn off Hyperthreading if it's enabled.
If that doesn't work then re-enable it.

    when downloading Itunes, keep getting system error, have had it on this computer before

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • When i connect my ipod shuffle to itunes i get an error message the ipod cannot be synced, the required disk cannot be found  anyone have this happen?

    When i connect my ipod shuffle to itunes i get an error message the ipod cannot be synced, the required disk cannot be found  anyone have this happen? How do i get past it?

    I seem to recall that this may be cause by overloading the USB bus (lack of power to go around).  Shut down your computer.  Reset the iPod shuffle using this procedure.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Disconnect ALL peripheral USB devices, including keyboard and mouse.  Power up the computer.  If you need your mouse, connect it and launch iTunes.  Connect the iPod shuffle to a direct USB port and try the sync again.  See if there is any difference.

    We restart the excel service app and it solves. Looking for permanent solution.

    To resolved the issue do a simple restart. 
    Restart the server
    Before restarting, verify that this problem occurs often. It may be an intermittent problem that is automatically corrected and does not require you to restart the server.
    If the problem occurs often, restart the server running Excel Services Application.
    If the problem continues to occur often, and restarting the server did not correct the problem, confirm that the hardware of the server is functioning correctly, or reinstall Excel Services Application and re-add the server to the server farm.

  • Event Viewer ACPI error MBP mid09

    Hi, I have installed Win 7 on my MBP 5.5 mid 2009 and although its running well I am getting an error message in event viewer saying:
    Error
    25/09/2014 00:00:32
    ACPI
    13
    None
    something about the embedded controller failed to start in a reasonable time. Would anyone with the same mac please check their event logs to see if they have this error please?
    I had this and a HAL error under Win 7 ultimate x64 (used this as a test os) so I installed Win 7 Pro from a Genuine Disc (I do not condone piracy) and I am getting the ACPI error (only after all the drivers were installed, the error message didnt show prior to boot camp 4 install). So before I spend £100 on a Genuine Windows disc (I already purchased Windows 8 at £106 but it seems apple dont support it on this mac :-(...) I'd like to know if its a failing logic board or driver related.
    Thanks in advance
    Darren

    I have been running OSX for around 1 hour and then I rebooted into windows 7, loaded the event logs immediately and found the ACPI error had been recorded precisely 1 hour before windows had booted, I am wondering if this could be a bug between Mac/Windows time feature. after more restarts the ACPI isn't being recorded and other events times are correct.
    edit:
    I have just disabled the Synchronise with internet time feature in windows. I'll keep a look out.

  • IPod 30GB Problems with iTunes 9; Will not sync iPod and freezes iTunes

    Since I have updated to iTunes 9 on windows xp (and more recently iTunes 9.0.1) I have not been able to sync my 5th generation iPod 30gb.
    What happens when I connect my ipod is that iTunes will instantly freeze and not allow me to do anything on it, but I am able to open other windows just not iTunes. After about 10 minutes iTunes will unfreeze briefly and claim to be syncing my iPod. Eventually after a further 10 minutes I am greeted with a message saying:
    "The ipod 'HARRY'S iPOD" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured (-50)."
    http://tinypic.com/r/2wchbgy/4
    Also when I try to access my iPod through the window's explorer, when I try to enter any files I get the message "Please insert a disc into drive F:" followed by "F:\ Photos is not accesible. The parameter is incorrect"
    I have no problems synicng my iPod Nano 4th Generation 16gb.
    I've tried to revert to iTunes 8 after uninstalling iTunes 9 but when I do it wont let me open it saying it cannot read the file "Itunes Library.lib"
    Does anyone have a clue where the problem is? And better still how to fix it?
    Thanks

  • Event Viewer System warnings.

    Hi all, just wondering if someone has heard of this and found a correction for it.In my event viewer I occasionally get a "remote access" warning message http://i588.photobucket.com/albums/ss324/DanS_photo_09/AccessError.jpg . These "remote access attempt" warnings appear in the system part of the event viewer during the same time I see the many daily "Skype update" messages. Is this caused by something in the Skype updates or just coincidental that it happens only during these updates? Sorry if this has been covered here already. I did a search and came up empty.Thank you for any insight to this and best regards, Dan 

    Thank you Tamim!  Sorry to associate this with Skype, it just seemed to point towards it with the errors at the time of updates and the remote access attempts just started happening. No reason for anyone "outside" to need to get on my pc/network except by a communications program.?. Thanks again and if Skype doesn't need the "L2TP protocol over IPSec" to work I'm going to do as suggested and disable it. All the best,Dan 

  • Ipod Touch freezes iTunes

    Well I have been having an issue for 2 months now and am getting different results. It all started with iTunes not recognizing my iPod Touch 3G 64GB. I tried numerous things: uninstall all Apple items, reinstalling at least 30 times, stopping/starting services, etc. Nothing is working. So last night I put it to restore mode and it was recognized and first time it gave me error 1604, then 1603, then the third, fourth and fifth time it installed the OS but then loops back to the "connect to iTunes" screen. I finally restored it on my roommates computer and brought it back to mine and, again, it does not recognize, but now it freezes iTunes until I disconnect my Touch from the computer. I am in real need of help here. I am currently deployed and cannot go to an Apple store or have the ability to contact them via phone. Hope someone can help. Thanks

  • IPod Classic freezes Itunes and wont Restore

    I have a IPod Classic 120GB.
    I was saving a file onto my IPod because i also use it as a hard drive, and the file wouldn't save. Then i noticed that iTunes froze. So i tried saving again and nothing happened.
    So i unplugged my IPod and had to go to the task manager to close iTunes.
    Every time i plug my iPod into my computer, it freezes iTunes. I'v tried accessing files by going to the ipod and opening it from there and going to programs such as photoshop and opening it through there and all of them say that they cant open it, then they freeze as well. I have also tried uninstalling itunes and then reinstalling a earlier version but that didnt work, so i uninstalled it and reinstalled the latest version of itunes and that didnt work either.
    I tried plugging my ipod into another computer and when i click on a normal jpg. image to open from my ipod, it says that the file isnt even there, but there is an icon showing it there.
    Im asumeing all my files are corrupt, so i tried to reset my ipod more than once by pressing the select + menu button for 10 seconds, then when the apple appears, i pressed the select + play to get into disk mode. there is get a check mark and connect message, nothing else happens. I tried pluggin it into my computer when i get that screen on my ipod and nothing happens cept my itunes again freezes. So i cant seem to plug it into itunes so i can restore my ipod.
    when i have my ipod plugged into my computer, and i start my computer, my computer goes to a black screen, and in white words says something about
    Volume Serial number 3141-5926
    Fat32
    check for consistancy,
    and it does then says that all my files on the hard drive are unreadable and have been removed.
    but when i look into my ipod after, their all still there. I tried deleting them by going into my computer, opening my ipod hard drive, but the moment i go to delete them, that too freezes.
    I also recieve notifications from windows that it cant even connect to my Ipod.
    also the hold switch, is not in the on position, its always been in the off position, and my iPod itself has never frozen.
    Im running Vista.
    I dont care that i lose everything on my ipod, i just want to set it back to factory condition like when i first bought it. I just cant seem to do so.
    Help Please

    He plugged it into his Mac and then it too froze his iTunes, then when he tried to access the hard drive his Mac crashed. He basically had the same problems as i did with it at home.
    Eeek! Sounds like it was being "The iPod Of Doom".
    Thank you so much for trying to helping me. I printed this all off and showed him and since he said we tried everything we could and it also wouldnt work for them either, we just replaced it.
    Thanks very much for letting me know, Ty! (Always a relief to know I was on the right track with a troubleshoot.)
    Glad you got a good resolution. Hope the new iPod behaves itself a bit better for you.

    whenever i conect my ipod to my computer itunes freezes and the nabout 20 seconds later my ipod mini freezes. why??

    I have had a similar problem with my iPod click wheel classic - upon connection, iTunes would freeze, upon disconnect things would go back to normal.
