IPod Nano & Outlook Contacts - Error

I keep getting an error when updating. I have it set to sync with all Outlook contacts but I get "iTunes cannot copy contacts to the iPod 'A.J.'s iPod'." Any body know a fix.....
iPod Nano   Windows XP  

Hi A.J.
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Just to make sure before going any further, have you looked at Knowledge Base Document #302270? It goes into detail on how to sync contacts with Outlook. I just want to point out:
"Outlook 2000 is not supported.
Only the primary email address is synced for contacts in Microsoft Outlook Express.
You must have Outlook Express or a full version of Microsoft Outlook to sync information (trial versions of Microsoft Outlook may not work)."

I do not use a Windows computer. I just want to make sure you have seen some the reference documents.

  • IPod nano - outlook contacts & mac iTunes?

    I would like to be able to sync my iPod nano with iTunes on my Mac and with my Outlook contacts on my work PC.
    Read that the first time you plug in the iPod nano to a PC or Mac, it formats for the proper system (PC or HFS+). Also concerned that the iPod will sync to only one computer.
    Hoping there's a way to do this... sure I'm not the only user that would rather use a Mac for personal use and iTunes but have to use Outlook on a PC for employer.

    I can't speak for the nano, but on other iPods, the Mac version of iTunes will sync to a Windows-formatted iPod. So if you format the nano as Windows, the Mac should be able to sync iTunes to it. I'm not sure how the Outlook sync works though on the PC. If it uses iTunes, you may be out of luck, since it'll probably try to sync the music too.

  • Ipod nano gets unknown error -48 when trying to restore

    Hi All
    My Ipod nano gets unknown error -48 when trying to restore and download the software update. Specifcally, when I connect my ipod, I get a message saying itunes cannot access the ipod and that I should restore it. I go the the ipod tab, hit the restore button and the download begins (approx 16mb). The download completes, and then I get this message :
    There was a problem downloading the ipod software for the ipod "ipod". An unknown error occurred (-48).
    Please help !!!!!

  • IPod Nano 16Gb sync error

    For a while now I have been getting the following when I try and sync my iPod Nano 16Gb on my Mac.
    The iPod syncs when it first is recignized by iTunes, but it will not synce again. I select different playlists, or make any changes. I tries resetting the iPod and now I have almost no music on it. It is three months old and useless now.
    iPod cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-25172).
    Any help would be appreiciated.

    It does happen on both USB ports. I have used the original cable and one out of another iPod Nano box.
    Both my Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6.8) and iTunes (10.6.1) have the latest updates.
    I have tried both of my iPods, (16GB Nano and Classic 160GB), they will sync when first plugged in, but when I make music and playlist changes, then click the sync button they fail.
    The 160GB will synce the changes to the playlists after I restart my system and iTunes, but the Nano had to be reinstalled completely and I cannot change the selected playlists, so it is almost useless now.
    I will try and get to the Apple store next week. I read a couple of comments about this being a possible corrupt file. I have 160GB of music in iTunes, so not sure how to go about figuring this out.

  • IPod nano had unexpected error syncing

    Hi
    Yesterday whilst syncing my iPod Nano 5G with iTunes 10.3, I recieved an unexpected error message from iTunes telling me that nine files had corrupted and that my device needed to be restored. I have not restored the device yet but now whenever I connect my iPod to my PC windows asks me to scan the device for corrupted files and iTunes asks me to restore.
    If I Restore the iPod will I lose the built in games that were on the device when I purchased it or any other important data which can't be retrieved afterwards?
    Thanks

    Update: After again repeating the 5Rs (instead of re-install, downloaded latest version of iTunes which prompted for "repair" rather than "install"), a message asking me if I wanted to update my iPod software came up. I accepted, and following the install was able to sync without the "corrupted" message. Of course when the sync was finished, I tried to play my iPod and noticed that there was no music on it (so in fact the sync hadn't really worked). Since then, all I get when connecting the iPod is the "corrupted" message, even after another reset.
    Suggestions?

  • IPod Nano 3rd generation error -50

    When attempting to sync photos into iPod Nano , unexpected error -50 occurs, and is unable. We have latest version of iTunes 8.2 (23).
    What do we do??

    Hey there,
    I would try trashing the iPhoto Photo cache to the trash because it may be corrupt and see if that helps. Instructions on how to do this can be found in the Apple support document below. Hope it helps.

    Hi I have just got the new iPod nano and every time I plug it in to my iMac i get errors:
    "An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconect and reconnect the iPod and try again.
    If the problem persists, reinstall the iPod Support software form the Optional Installs on the Mac OS X install disc."
    and
    "iTunes cannor read the contence of the iPod "iPod Nano". Go to the summary tab in iPod prefrerences and click Restore to restore this iPod to factoy settings"
    then at the same time gives the device removal error.
    but when I plugged in the nano to my Macbook pro to see if it was that, it works fine. I have tried to restore it and still no luck and I have reinstalled iPod support from my Leopard disk How can i get my iMac to work with it?

    Hi,
    Make sure your iPod Nano is directly connected to a high speed USB port and not plugged into a USB hub. This article has some general USB connection tips. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286
    If the iPod still does not show up in iTunes, try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1461

  • Ipod nano 4th gen error message -208

    I bought and downloaded a movie from the istore but when I try to sync it to my ipod I get an error message "unable to sync-unknown error 208". My music and photos sync really well and this is the first time I've tried to buy and sync a movie.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    Can you play the movie in iTunes? If the movie cannot play in iTunes it will not sync to the iPod.
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes, currently 8.0.2. http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Also , make sure you have the latest version of iPod software, which is currently 1.0.3. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1483 will walk you through updating the iPod.
    If the issue persists after updating the software, try deleting the iPod photo Cache. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314 provides more details about the folder and its location.
