Itunes 10.2.2.12 - All Itunes 10 Version Sync problems

I am using Windows XP PC latest service pack, I have  a newer 5th Gen 16GB Ipod Nano, I now have the latest Itunes 10.2.2.12. Every since I have had this newer Ipod Nano,and with first version of Itunes 10, nothing but syncing problems. After calling  Apple Ipod Tech Support, and scouring Apple Help screens and forums, just like Apple Tech Support reps, the recommendation is mostly the same, they have me go through the grueling, time consuming process of Uninstalling and Re-installing Itunes, which I have done many times, sometimes it would help in syncing, many times not.Also tried other Apple support recommendation tricks with Apple Mobile Device too, and even upgraded to a Higher speed USB Port,again it would sync for a while and then eventually would start having same sync problems again, even after updating to the latest Itunes. Errors: Itunes is Unable to locate Ipod attached, or The required folder cannot be found.
  When exactly will Apple tech Support put out a New Fully Stable Itunes Version to correct and remove these problems that occur over and  over again, with so many Ipod users online?? I am getting so frustrated, that I am looking for Itunes and even Ipod better alternatives to avoid these big time consuming headaches. Anybody have a Full solution, or at least somewhat permanent Solution to these Ipod sync Errors?? Thanks for your time.

well i'm running iTunes same vsn on a brand new iMac i7 2.93GHz and i'm constantly having to wait while the old beach ball of death appears. it usually only halts normal operation for 15 to 40secs but thats ridiculous enough. i've got 16Gb of DRAM and even with no other apps running this happens - and it happens about every 3 mins or so. crazy.
9037 songs in the library.
i guess this is better than iPhoto 9 which crashed and refuses to boot full stop, in spite of several re-instals.
and i thought the new world of apple was gonna be rosy. hmmmm.

  • ITunes 11 wifi sync problem

    Hi all,
    I just update to iTunes 11, but since than I'm only able to sync my iPad and iPhone with a cable, the wifi sync option is not working. Both of my iDevices won't find my MacBook
    Info:
    iPad Wifi 3rd Gen
    iPhone 5
    MacBook Pro 15" (mid 2011)
    Hope that anyone has a solution or Apple comes up with a solution

    My itunes wasnt recognizing either my or my husbands phones via wifi either, I took the suggestion of others and reconnected to wifi, didnt work. What ended up working for me was going into network preferences on the mac, and than advanced and deleting my network from the list of preferred networks, turning on wifi on my mac, quitting itunes, turning wifi on my mac back on, reconnecting to my network and opening up itunes. Just synced a song to my iphone via wifi no problem. Odd workaround but hopefully that helps you. I am running osx 10.8.2 and my phones are on ios 6.0.1

  • OSX iTunes to touch sync problem...ARGH

    I have had my iPod touch for a few weeks now, but the other day it stopped syncing - partly.
    Let me explain: I can sync Music, Movies, Podcasts and Photos, it is only if I tick anything on the "Info" tab in Itunes that I get an error message. Means: If I want to sync address book, iCal, Mail accounts or bookmarks, iTunes starts syncing the music etc, but then spits out an errormessage when it gets to the latter:
    "iTunes could not sync mail accountsto the iPod because the sync serverfailed to sync the iPod"
    I then started up up the console to have a look what it wanted to tell me, here is what I got:
    Waiter has started running...

    I found the above syncservices folder, and dragged it to the desktop to see what would happen.
    iTunes could still sync music, but for other data it would tell me this:
    "iTunes could not sync mail accountsto the iPod because an error occurred while pushing data from the iPod"
    So I quickly moved the folder back, and the same (original) errormessage returned.
    I am at loss what to do - reinstall iTunes? ARGH!

  • Itunes ipod movie sync problem

    I have a bunch of videos on my ipod but just recently all the movies sort themselves in music instead of movies(on my ipod). when i sync a new movie it sorts itself under movies.
    my question is: how do i get all my movies to show up under movies.;
    and yes i tried changing the media kind to movie. but that dosnt fix the problem.any help is awesome!

    Hi dg,
    I had something similar happen to me, this is just a shot in the dark. I had set my iTunes to play on a remote speaker that was connected via an Airport Express. Any time a video came up, only the audio part played, because a video can only play on the local machine. I think it's the latest "remote audio" solution.
    I had to tell iTunes to play from the local machine, then it was fine.

  • Bt hub 3, itunes, iphone, ipad syncing problems - not seen

    Im using the new infinity BT hub 3 and there are now issues with syncing the iphone, ipad and itunes.  iTunes does not see them as devices consistantly and when it does (looking for "device"), it says it is not available to sync (not found on the network) and promply they disappear from the upper right hand corner.  BT say it's an itunes issue.
    I have tried changing from WPA to WEP but this doesn't work, nor does plugging the computer into the ethernet. 
    The devices show as being on the network by the router, but are not available to sync in itunes
    What do we think people? Any ideas to fix this?

    As a fallback you could try using the usb cable rather than wifi.
    However to you main problem with the wifi. I to have BT infinity and not only was I having issues with not seeing the devices but also a slow speed of streaming to Apple TV3.
    Turns out my issue was interference on the wifi from other wifi networks on the same channel.
    Mountain Lion has a new wifi utility details here
    http://9to5mac.com/2012/07/31/use-mountain-lions-new-wi-fi-scan-utility-to-optim ize-your-home-wireless-network/
    Found thayt there seemed to be 3 or 4 houses on channel 6, Changed mine to channel 11, via the BT hub admin page. When everyting settled down again plugged in my devices via USB made sure they were wifi sync enabled and now all works as it should.
    If you do not run mountain lion then look for istumbler on google, does the same job and its free

  • HT1386 itunes music library syncing problem....  HELP!

    As I try to sync my iphone, my music library does not transfer from my ipod to itunes on my PC.  can anyone help?

    Moving music from Pod/iPad/iPhone --> CPU is not easy because of copyright issues (otherwise, you could simply put all of your friend's music on your CPU and never pay for it).
    If you have paid for the music on your iPod...
    1. I recommend doing a Google search for iTunes...but spell iTunes backwards.
    2. Download and Install the application that is at the top of the search results.
    The application's website will have further instructions on how to get music off of your iPod.
    All the best!

  • Trying to update iTunes, older version removal problems

    Trying to update my iTunes account on my computer and the new 10.5.2.11 version would not download, so the web told me to remove iTunes and reinstall it, now I am having trouble because the ( older version removal ) does not happen, so the download stops and it refers me to tech services.  How do I fix this problem?

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • IPhone Apps from another iTunes account. Syncing problems.

    HELP
    I had another mac (Ibook G4) and it crashed. I could not use it so I used my husbands account to download some applications and set up my new iphone.
    Now I have a new mac. I purchased an application from MY itunes store. When I tried to sync it to my iphone, it started erasing my applications that I purchased through my husbands account.
    I tried to back up my applications and add them into my itunes store. It says I can do this at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848.
    I did this, but it still says that if I sync it, I will lose all my apps off my iphone. Even though those apps are now in my itunes, I am afraid that if I sync I will lose the apps on my phone and in my application folder on itunes. Does anyone know if that is the case?

    You have two different iTunes accounts.
    One for you and one for him.
    When you try to authorize HIS account on your computer, it says there are already 5 authorized.
    You need to Deauthorze all on his account.
    Do this...
    "*To deauthorize all computers associated with your account*
    If you find you have reached 5 authorizations, you can reset your authorization count by clicking Deauthorize All in the Account Information screen.
    Click iTunes Store in the menu on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All."
    You will probably need to do it on his computer since you cannot log on with his account.
    See this page -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
    Then you can authorize is computer again and you can authorize yours.

  • IPhone OS 3.0 iTunes Google Contacts Sync Problem

    I used to sync my Google Contacts to my iPhone 3G via iTunes. Then I found out about Google Mobile Sync and decided to try it. Tried it, but didn't like some of the limitations. So I disabled it and started syncing Contacts via iTunes again. After a while I noticed that my contacts were no longer updating with my Google Account. At some point I upgraded to OS 3.0, but I'm not certain if this problem was occurring before the upgrade, or after the upgrade.
    My problem at this point is that I can't sync with Google Contacts via iTunes at all. I have tried the following:
    * Checked the option to overwrite the contacts on the phone
    * Deleted sync history and backup
    * Re-install iTunes
    * Upgrade to the latest version (iTunes 8.2.1 released today)
    * Reset my device
    I still can't sync with Google Contacts.

    Confirmed on IOS firewall, had to add the "save-password" option to the config under "*crypto isakmp client configuration group ######*"
    It appears that earlier that earlier versions of the VPN client on iPhone OS builds prior to 3.0 did not enforce this.
    After updateing the VPN config on the router i disconnected and reconnected, was prompted twice for the password and job done! No longer asked for the password every time!

  • ITunes to iPod Syncing problem. PLEASE HELP!!

    I own an MacBook Pro and a 60GB iPod (both of which are about a year old) I'm running iTunes 7.2 (34), OSX 10.4.10, and iPod SW 1.2.1 for Macintosh.
    Up until about a week ago my entire library of music of 6205 songs synced nicely to my iPod.
    Recently I got an error message: "Some of the songs in your iTunes library, including “<Song Name>”, were not copied to iPod “<iPod Name>” because they cannot be played on this iPod." - 112 total problems, with a list of about 63 song titles under the message.
    Well the first thing I did was look up a few of these songs to see if they played in iTunes, and the did, they were ALL MPEG audio files (MP3), ALL encoded with iTunes v7.1 at 192 kbps. - So I figured I needed to restore the ipod, basically just a waste of time.
    After the restore I got the same message. That's when I decided I had to transcribe the list of songs from the error message and create a playlist of these songs that needed to be fixed. I then figured I'd convert them to AAC files. From the advanced tab in the import section of the preferences i changed the encoder to AAC and under the advanced menu in iTunes, i converted these songs to AAC.
    When I synced the iPod after that, I got the same message, ONLY now a whole NEW set of songs, some of which i had listened to ON my iPod just yesterday!
    So, does my iPod just have a problem with my taste in music, or am I overlooking something? I am really getting nowhere with this one.
    Thanks in advance, to anyone who can shed some light.

    It's certainly not true that only the newer iPods support mp3s. There seems to have been a number of problems with 7.2 and the release of the non-drm tracks from iTunes. It most often crops up with tracks that started out in life as drm tracks purchased through the iTunes store that were subseqently converted to non-drm tracks. Depending on how they were added to the library, it appears that iTunes thinks they are still the drm tracks but corrupted. Deggie's suggestion has worked for most folks, as best I can tell.
    Best of luck.
