IPOD is corrupt restore / reconnect, cannot be restored. Unknown Error 1418

I am a new IPOD user as of Valentine's day when my wife bought me this new gadget. I purchased and downloaded a book from the internet the first time and things worked fine. Today I spent hours trying to reconnect and download some additional books and music. I got the error message above and tried the common fixes.. using a different port, rebooting the Computer, using the Hold Button on and off, etc. Nothing seems to help. This unit is less than a month old... Maybe it is me since this unit is less than 1 month old? Please help.

  • TS1425 5th Generation Nano iPod.  The iPod syncs on iTunes when I connect it to my MAC, but when I try to add a song from iTunes to the iPod, I receive the message "Cannot be synced, unknown error occurred (1039)

    5th generation iPod Nano - iPod syncs with my iTunes and I can see it in iTunes, but when I try to move a song from my iTunes to the iPod I get an error message "Cannot by synced, Unknown error occurred (1039).  System works fine with my 4th generation iPod Nano.  I'm afraid to "RESET" my iPod because I may not be able to restore my music and videos afterwards.

    Hello Ventanilla 97,
    I agree with planb77 with recreating your itunes library. That will fix your issue. If you would like more step by step info go here:

    I was trying to restore my iPod since it skips every single song except for the ones that I have purchased from the iTunes store and I keep getting this error. Does anyone know what this error means and how to fix it or restore your iPod without getting the error? Or getting your songs to not skip? *the songs play in iTunes just not on the iPod

  • When i plug in my ipod classic it pops up ipod corrupted and i should restore the ipod but when i try it pops up unknown error 1415

    when i plug in my ipod classic it pops up ipod corrupted and i should restore the ipod but when i try it pops up unknown error 1415?

    My suggestions, when Restoring the iPod.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your iPod to the PC, using a high speed USB 2.0 port at the back of your PC.
    Disconnect all other USB devices, except the mouse and keyboard.
    Stop all other programs except iTunes.
    Good Luck!

  • Unknown Error 1418 when restoring ipod

    I hope someone can help me fix my Ipod problem. I have the first edition of the U2 Ipod and when I was in Ireland it malfunctioned. I took it to an Apple Store today and they restored it to factory setting using a mac. Well I brought it home, I did what the man at the store said to do and downloaded 7.0 and then when prompted tried to restore the Ipod using Windows. When I did the message "Could not restore ipod, unknown error (1418)" appeared. Does anyone know what this means and what my next step should be?
    I am so close to being able to have my Ipod fixed and put my music back into it but I cannot get past this stupid error message. Does anyone know whether he screwed up my Ipod by formatting it using a Mac or what I should do next? The man said my Ipod was corrupted by something, could this be the problem? This is so frustrating because I am so close to having my Ipod back to normal and now don't know what to do. Thanks,would appreciate any help anyone can offer!!

  • IPod cannot be updated Unknown error-48

    Help - have installed iTunes 7.0.1 and am trying to keep ALL the music on my iPod so have tried to set the options to manual update. But although the computer senses the iPod is connected, when I try and drag new files to my iPod, I get the message "iPod cannot be updated Unknown error-48" Any advice gratefully received

    Hey!
    Just an update since last week.
    Still comes up with the "Unknown Error_48" when coupled to the Mac.Doesn't sync to iTunes and says it's upto date in the summary.Never had any issues like this (until iTunes 7 and 1.2).Kinda renders the whole iPod thing a bit useless.
    Being able to update the library on your Pod is essential.Otherwise what's the point?My Pod still 'works'but not quite the way Apple intended I think.
    SORT IT OUT APPLE!!
