IPod_control\ iTunes\ Temp file 1 corruption?

Hi
Everytime i connect my iPod to my computer i get a box pop up in the bottom right hand corner saying that the 'iPod_control\ iTunes\ Temp file 1' is either corrupt or unreadable and that i should run the chkdsk utility. This stops itunes updating my ipod so none of my new music is getting put on my iPod, even though iTunes says update is complete! I have run the chkdsk several times and i have also tried unistalling and reinstalling itunes but to no avail!
Please help!
Thanks Guys

  • \iPod_Control\iTunes\Temp file corrupted -- what now?

    I'm using my new iPod with iTunes 7.0.2.16 on Windows XP.
    For the first few days I used this iPod, it synchronized just fine when I connected it to my PC via the USB cable.
    However, yesterday I got an error message at the end of the synch. It read:
    Windows -- No Disk
    There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive E:
    Then, after I pressed Continue, I'd get what appeared to be an iTunes error, stating that the iPod "cannnot be updated. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."
    Finally, today, after getting that iTunes message, a different warning box popped up in the lower right corner of my screeen. It read:
    iTunes.exe -- Corrupt File
    The file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes\Temp file is corrupted and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility.
    Now, from what I can gather, the chkdsk utility is a command line Windows utility that I might not even have on my PC, and don't really want to mess with.
    Does anyone know how I might have gotten into this mess, or might possibly get out of it, without messing with the innards of Windows?
    Are the three error messages, described above, somehow related?
    Would downloading the latest version of Itunes and installing it be a solution?

    Running chkdsk is not "messing with Window's innards." It's just a command line utility that checks and can correct directory issues on a drive.
    Click on Start and go to Run (this is with your iPod connected, of course.).
    In the Run prompt type "cmd" without the quotes, and hit okay.
    At the command prompt, type the following:
    chkdsk E: /r
    and then hit enter. The computer will scan the iPod disk and fix any directory mistakes it can. When that is finished, eject the iPod and disconnect it, then reopen iTunes and reconnect it. Hopefully it should be working fine after that.

  • ITunes library file is corrupt

    Hi All,
    Today when I tried to open my iTunes library it kept crashing and I figured it its because the iTunes library file is corrupt. How do I repair it? Thanks!
    FYI I just installed the most recent

    Hi,
    In your itunes folder there is another folder called previous itunes libraries. You will be able to retieve the last library immediately before the recent up date.
    Close itunes then you will need to move the iTunes Library.itl to trash. Move previous itl file to replace the one you moved to trash - you will need rename it to iTunes Library.itl.

  • How do I Change where iPod_Control\iTunes\ITunesControl files install?

    How do I Change where iPod_Control\iTunes\ITunesControl files install? This file has installed itself on a netwrok drive and not where I have my itunes folder? Why and how do I point this control file to the right location?

    hiya!
    How do I Change where iPod_Control\iTunes\ITunesControl files install?
    hmmm. those files should only appear in your ipod itself. if they are showing up on a network drive, it's plausible that you've got a Windows drive letter confusion going on in the background of all this:

  • Album art displays very slowly; iTunes library file is corrupted?

    Since I have updated to the latest version of Leopard, my album art in the iTunes music folder displays at a snail's pace, where before it was fast as lightning. It appears my iTunes Library file is corrupted, because when I created a new iTunes library file, all my art work on my tracks displayed very fast, no slowdown at all. Also when I logged in as a different user, same thing. No problems with my album art being displayed. Is there a way of fixing a corrupted iTunes library file? I have a lot of music, videos and TV shows, all neatly arranged in various playlists I created. Just to do it over again would take me weeks. Also since I've been backing my internal drive using Time Machine, can I go back and retrieve my iTunes library file before it became corrupted? Thank you for any help you can give me.

    You should be able to retieve your pre-corrupted library file from TM, provided the corruption didn't happen to far back.

  • Itunes Temp files

    When I open my Itunes folder in my music tab. I have 180 temp files showing( besides the Itunes music library folder, and a previuos Itunes library folder iT.tmp file and also an itunes xml.file) The size of file differs from 6 to12 megs. Are these needed or can I delete them?
    Thanks

    It should be fine to just delete the .tmp files. (Be sure to leave everything else there though.)
    Actually, it's probably worth (after deleting the existing .tmp files) checking to see if new ones are being created.
    Typically they show up after itunes has been opened and closed. So perhaps try opening and closing itunes, and then refreshing your view of the iTunes folder. Has a new .tmp file shown up?
    (Checking on this, because I'm wondering if the .tmp file creation is a symptom of the same sort of thing that caused your library file damage. If they were only caused by interference from your Norton, you may be fine now that you've switched to OneCare. But if they're still being produced now, i'm a bit worried that you might end up with an ongoing occasional-library-file-corruption situation.)

  • ITunes Temp Files and previous libraries

    In ~Home/Music/iTunes folder are many Temp Files, (some text, and some iTunes database files), each about 1.2 MB. I also note a file "iTunes Music Library.xml, a text document 2.3 MB, and a folder "Previous iTunes Libraries" containing "iTunes 4 Music Library" and iTunes Music Library (Old). I am using iTunes 6.0.1. Can I safely delete these Temp Files and Old Libraries?

    You could always move them from where they are to the desktop, and then launch iTunes.
    If everything seems ok then they aren't needed.
    Or is that too simple? No, it's a Mac

  • \iPod_Control\iTunes\iTunesDB, file damaged

    I have a problem with my mini ipod, maybe anybody knows what to do or is it broken??
    my computer shows:
    "file or list \iPod_Control\iTunes\iTunesDB is damged and not readable.conduct CHKDSK"
    is this a ipod problem or pc problem? or has it to do with the fact maybe that i updated the software??
    all music from my ipod is gone and i m not able to get the music from my library to the ipod because then the above fault message appears.
    I am grateful for help....

    chkdsk is "check disk" program which you have to run it under dos command. I did try and found there were problems with file / directory structure within ipod. However, this did not fixed the problem.
    So nextthing I did was the restore the ipod to factory default setting. That just cured all the problems I had!!!

  • Windows says the itunes download file is corrupt and will not install

    Im trying to install itunes on my new windows 8 pc.  It seems to recognize my software and takes me to a download the 64 bit file (iTunes64Setup.exe).  Once the download completes, the file appears in my windows download manager with the message "The signature of this program is corrupt or invalid".  If I right click and chose install anyway, I get a message saying that Windows prevented this from running.
    I then found the 32bit download file (iTunesSetup.exe).  I get the same results as above.  Any ideas how to fix this?

    I get that all the time with all sorts of programmes.  I normally shut down my pc, unplug it, wait for the light to go out on the back, plug back in reboot and it works (with most of my downloads) try this, it might fix it, it might not.  I tried this the other day after it kept telling me it was corrupt, then it came down and installed fine.  I do this now with every update of every program, if I forget they will all say they have an 'invalid signature' or 'corrupt from source file' etc.  Hope this helps you.  Also I have to do this before I download music as well, because otherwise it seems to come down with the stupid DRM still on the file, meaning I can't put it on my ipod, convert it or even play it on my system.

  • ITunes library file NOT corrupt but cannot locate music files

    This is a new one... the library file seems to be NOT corrupt. iTunes loads fine and is populated by all the music information and artwork, etc. but when I click to play a tune, it says "cannot locate music". Nothing was moved, nothing has been changed. All my files are in the same location and iTunes shows the correct file path. The only files it can play are four songs that were imported before a massive rebuild of the library occurred the next day!
    Any ideas!!
    Thanks!

    +The only files it can play are four songs that were imported before a massive rebuild of the library occurred the next day!+
    This is probably a big clue, but I don't understand what you mean by it!

  • I am unable to install iTunes. The system shows an error saying iTunes.cab file is corrupt.

    Trying to install iTunes on windows 7 64 bit
    The error keeps coming. Tried uninstalling all previous apple software.

    I found htis other post https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3401328?start=0&tstart=0
    I also found this in another post
    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • Unable to Open Itunes because of a corrupt or unreadable file.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes several times on this computer and every time I try to open it I get an error message reading "The itunes applications could not be opened. The file or directory is corrupt or unreadable". At the same time in the bottom right corner of my computer a box appears saying that the itunes.exe file is corrupt. I don't know what to do if uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't work. Any help is appreciated.

    We'll first try running a disk check over the C drive (or whichever drive you have your iTunes program files installed on). There's Vista instructions in the following document.
    [Check your hard disk for errors|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Check-your-hard-disk-fo r-errors]
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors. You'll probably need to schedule the scan to run on restart. The disk check should take quite a while to run. If it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the disk check find/repair any damage? If so, are you able to reinstall iTunes now?
