IPod freezes when trying to sync with iTunes 6.0.4(3)!

Is anyone else having this problem?? My iPod (touch wheel) was working just fine until I updated iTunes the other night. Now it freezes when I try to sync it with iTunes! I tried resetting, restoring, checked all the updates, *****-slapping the iPod, everything. I see that others might be having the same problem -- is there a solution? Help!
iMAC Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Update:
Any new news on this issue from anyone else?
I left my iPod plugged into my PowerBook over night and when I woke it was functional. However, downloads from iTunes to the iPod take almost 3x's longer than they used to and there seems to be more errors than I've ever experienced (about 1 out of every 10 interfaces). Sometimes the error is that it can't write to the drive (iPod) and sometimes the error is that it can't mount the iPod. Also when the iPod is plugged in and displayed in iTunes, the "used" and "free" info is incorrect. I completely emptied my iPod and it says that I'm using -2.80 GB (impossible unless I've created a blackhole) and it says that I have 10.49 GB (capacity, under Get Info, is listed at 9.28 - which is were it's always been - it's a gen2 10GB iPod).
Has anyone tried to format there iPod? Is this possible without harming the drive?
Well, to sum it up my iPod is working but is having errors and bugs all over the place. If anyone has any new news I'd love to hear it.

IPhone 4s reboots many times when trying to sync with iTunes

iPhone 4s reboots many times when trying to sync with iTunes.
Since IOS 8, my iPhone 4s reboots many times when trying to sync with iTunes on my Mac. It will start running the backup and reboot, it will reboot many times when updating packages. It can take 12 hours to finish a sync with the mac. The phone gets hot during this. I keep deleting more and more pictures and apps, hoping that maybe it doesn't have enough space, but iTunes shows I have 4.9 Gbytes free, which I think should be enough. I am on IOS 8.0.2, I thought maybe I would try to upgrade to the latest IOS today, but I am worried that I will end up with a non working phone.
Is anyone else having these problems?
Ed

Well thats Od... I have never experienced that problem.. Maybe you should try to backup your phone and then wipe it by going to Settings<General<Reset

When I start my computer I get a "AppleSyncNotifier.exe Entry Point Not Found message. I also get an error message when trying to sync with iTunes that a backup session cannot be started. How do I fix this?

In the last few days when I start my computer, I get a box that opens with "AppleSyncNotifier.exe" Entry Point Not Found in the title.
It says: "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQlite3.dll.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and still get an error message when trying to sync my phone with iTunes
"iTunes could not back up iPhone ####, because a session could not be started with the iPhone."
The last time I tried to sync my phone (iPhone 3G S) with iTunes, everything seemed to freeze up at Stage 4 of the sync process.
Any advice????

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Reboot and see if all is well
In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

Error message when trying to Sync with itunes

Hi
I seem to get error messages when I try to sync with itunes. I have the iphone 3G. Also all my music and videos seem to have carried across, all except one, it's very odd. Latest error message reads:
"itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
Any clues?

"itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
This error is associated with ringtones, are you trying to sync a ringtone, purchase a ringtone...need more info...
I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
Are you on Windows XP? Is this the error message...iTunes displays -50 error message? If so, follow these directions:

Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
The" may need service' meand there is a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod freezes when trying to sync/sometimes reboots my computer?!?

I have a 20 gig ipod from 2004 (click-wheel with no color screen) that I have been trying to update my library on. Every time it tries to sync, it freezes and I have to plug it into the power supply in order to restart it. It also won't take any new songs if I try to add them manually. I tried restoring factory settings and updating my ipod software and that didn't help. I tried using the USB unsuccessfully and tried the firewire only to have that freeze the ipod and completely reboot my computer at the same time?! If anyone knows what is going on, I'd greatly appreciate any advice. I have taken great care of my ipod and would be surprised if it was something I had done to damage the unit.
thanks MUCH in advance!
ps. my nano syncs and adds songs manually just fine with the same computer...

When trying to sync with itunes error message reads Apple mobile device not started. I pod turns on but does not connect to itunes

When I try to sync my ipod with itunes I get an error message which tells me Apple mobile device is not started.

"itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."

Error message, 0xE8000065 when trying to sync with iTunes. HELP!!!

I bought a new iPhone 4S, but when I try to connect it to iTunes, I get an error message, 0xE8000065, or sometimes 0xE800001. I want to sync it but nothing I've tried (restarting the services, restarting the machine, reinstalling iTunes, erasing lockdown folder) works. Can anyone help me?
P.S. I saw a video in youtube explaining how to try to connect it using recovery mode, and iTunes did in fact detect the iPhone and asked me to update and restore. I did not want to as I already have some apps and pics but I went through it anyway. Since it was taking a LONG time, I went to get something to eat: when I came back, the iPhone had not been restored, and it still wouldn't connect to iTunes. I'm guessing the restore/update failed? In any case, how can I fix this issue?

TS1538 when trying to sync with itunes my only option is restore

when I try to get my music onto my iphone 4s the only option I get in itunes is restore. I was able to transfer everything else.....any ideas?

This problem is quite common, but I have not been able to figure out what causes it. My best bet is that it's a USB issue, and I have found a workaround that makes synchronising possible when all else fails. For the record, I have tried all of the potential solutions on these forums without lasting success. Here's what worked for me.
(Windows 7 32bit, iPhone 4S, iTunes 10.6.1.7)
First of all, make sure you have a good wi-fi signal in the region of the PC you are syncing with. Then -
1) Start iTunes.
2) Connect phone via USB.
3) Left click on phone in iTunes.
4) On the Summary page check "Sync with this phone over Wi Fi"
5) On the phone go to Settings>General>iTunes wi-fi sync
6) Tap on Sync now.
The phone should sync via wi-fi, even though it is connected via USB. It didn't seem any slower to me than syncing via the cable, and more importantly it worked, and the backup went smoothly. I've tried it several times now with no problems.
Also, if you have a lot of apps you need to synchronise or you are re-arranging the app windows using iTunes you can sync in the normal way from the PC if you do it immediately after the wi-fi sync, because iTunes does not run the backup again. It probably won't run two backups within a few minutes of one another.
It's all a bit of a fiddle, and Apple/MS needs to get a fix for it, but if this method works for you at least you have a good backup should you flush your phone down the toilet!
Good luck!
