Ipod touch sync error 9

help just brought a new Ipod Touch and wanted to use it with my old itunes account the the many dollars worth of songs etc that I had. But every time I go to sync it tells me that my ipod is in restore mode, goes to restore and fails at the last second and gives me an error 9 message. This is very frustrating and does not seem to be easily solved. RB

IPod touch sync error

I am unable to sync my iPod touch. I receive an error message "An unknown error occured (13019) " how can I correct this ?, I am unable to sync my iPod touch. I receive an error message "An unknown error occured (13019) " how can I correct this ? Pls help !

I have the same problem with the same configuration of ipod and itunes . i have read all the posts about voice memos etc but these don't apply to me. I have recently reset the ipod in an attemptt to fix the problem - so no music at all on it. Even now with no other apps set to sync it will not sync even 1 song without throwing up the same error message. So i am at a complete loss as to what to do next.

Cannot delete mail from ipod touch & "syncing error"

I get this error message "unable to move message" and "the message could not be moved to the mailbox trash". When I tap on settings and mail,contacts,calendars I get "accounts are currently syncing. Please help.

Not possible, that would defeat the convenience of webmail/touch syncing. If your concern is security (ie, someone finds or steals your touch), set the touch to Autolock in Settings. With this feature enabled, someone would need to enter a password to see your email (or do anything else with your touch).

When trying to do a recover and update an old iPod touch, "unknown error" occurs and nothing happens. I have followed all the trouble shooting suggestions but nothing works. Ideas?

Hi msclaude,
Welcome to the Support Communities! I'm not sure from your post what steps you have tried, but it sounds like you may need to use recovery mode to address the issue with your unresponsive iPod touch.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201263
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
You can put your iOS device into recovery mode, then restore it using iTunes.
Use recovery mode
You might need to use recovery mode to restore your device in these cases:
iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's in recovery mode.
You see the Apple logo onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
You see the Connect to iTunes screen.
Learn what to do if you see the progress bar onscreen for several minutes.
To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup.Get more help
Learn what to do if you don't see your device in iTunes for OS X, or in iTunes for Windows.
If you put your device into recovery mode by mistake, restart it. Or you can wait 15 minutes and your device will exit recovery mode by itself.
I hope this information helps ....

Ipod touch 2nd error 0xE8004002

*When I sincro my ipod touch apear error 0xE8004002 don't permit update the music in it?*

I have not had that error, but others who have report this fixes it:
1)Navigate to <username>/Pictures/iPhoto Library
2)Remove the folder iPod Photo cache (delete it, move it to Trash or whatever you want - just remove it from the iPhoto Library)
3)Sync your ipod.
Alternatively, you could turn off sync for photos and have all pics deleted from the ipod. Afterwards sync and add photos again.
Hope that solves your problem. Let us know.

Basically... I had an ipod touch sync'd to my dads i tunes.. i then got an iphone and created my own apple id.. how could i transfer the media from my ipod which was used on a different apple id onto my own account without everything deleting

Syncing an iDevice to a computer does not remove content from the computer.
Syncing an iDevice to a computer that it does not normally sync with will remove the content from that device.
If the media was acquired with a different Apple ID it is in no way linked to your Apple ID.

When I plug in my iPod Touch a error pops up saying 'iTunes could not connect this iPhone. An unknown error occurred (0xE8000084)." What do I do??

My ipod is exactly 2 years old, and it has nothing to do with the cable connecting it to the computer for all I know.

ICal on Mac desktop to iPod Touch syncing problem

I have events on my iPod Touch that will not sync to my Mac OS 10.6.8 desktop.
What I've done that may have caused this:
I got a new MacBook for Christmas and so I tried syncing all 3 with iCloud, but that caused duplicate events
I tried only using MacBook & iPod Touch for sycing with iCloud and then directly syncing from my iPod with USB to my desktop, but it stopped syncing (later I found that my cord needed to be replaced, but I'm not sure if that was the problem - I was still dealing with some duplicate events, too)
I decided to stop using iCloud (I can do without using my iCal on my MacBook if there's no ideal solution to sync all 3 without duplications or other problems) and now my iPod Touch syncs well with my desktop for most items, but not all
I think my desktop thinks the events that are syncing have already been synced because they were in the past. The one that was important that I missed today, which is on my desktop (a repeating event) but is no longer on my iPod Touch, refuses to sync to my desktop. There may be more that I haven't noticed.
I thought maybe I could wipe my iPod Touch calendar and then sync my desktop to my iPod Touch, but I'm afraid that it might wipe my desktop as I don't know how to tell it to only go one way in syncing rather than acting as if it's a new program.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Be sure you've set your iPod to the correct time zone (ie, same as your computer). If you're on the East Coast it's three hours ahead of Apple HQ's time zone. A 5:00pm appointment in New York is at 2:00pm to someone using a Californian clock. Make sure your Touch isn't a Californian clock.

IPod cannot sync, error -48

Lately I've been getting errors saying iPod cannot sync, error -48. However, it seems to sync fine. What's going on?

I have started to get these errors as well?
First time I used Restore which seemed to fix it until the next time I tried to sync having added several CD's worth of music when I got the -48 error. This time I also got an error reporting it was unable to sync as another programme was using the iPod?
Anyway this time I zapped the iPod with Disc Utility and restored it again, so far so good. But I expect it will need an iPod software update to fix it for good in the end. Lets hope Apple post one out soon.

HT1386 why my 4th gen iPod touch syncs the movies again?

After iOS6 update, why my 4th gen iPod touch syncs the movies again? It used to sync with iTunes just the new one I marked. Now it seems to syncs the whole set of movies I have. Why?

When you connect the i-touch to your computer do you notice the "Other" portion of the space on your itouch may be over .5gb?
The average space for the "Other" portion is roughly less then .5 GB ... Its the yellow bar in i-tunes when your i-touch is connected ... I had the same issue where the "Other" portion of my i-touch 4 was reading like 5.5 GB, I did some research and found that that space is actually not free space at all, its actually full of left over files and such.
The way to decrease the size is to back up what you have, and restore it. then reinstall all the apps and music and videos. You will notice all that yellow bar is almost gone, and you will have a lot more space!

TS3694 iPod touch gets error -1303 when attempting to restore after update (W7)

iPod touch gets error -1303 when attempting to restore after update (W7). This error is not shown anywhere in the specific list. Have done all recommended recovery methods (reboot, update iTunes, restart iPod) to no avail. What is next?

Usually the 1303 error is in regards to a corrupted or missing backup of your iPod Touch. Try removing or moving the backups to another location and then try to restore your iPod once again.
See this article for information on where backups are stored.
