ITunes and iPhone 4 sync issues with Windows 7 64 bit

I am getting several errors with sync'ing iTunes to my iPhone on windows7 64bit. I reinstalled iTunes, I did a repair on iTunes, even tried a RESTORE on iPhone, but it gives me so many errors one after another after another.
1. Some of the items were NOT copied to iPhone "iPhone" because one ore more errors occured.
2. Attempting to copy to the disk "iPhone" failed. An internal device error occured.
3. The iPhone "iPhone" can NOT be synced. An unknown error occured (0xE8004006).
4. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. The required file can not be found.
5. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. A duplicate filename was specified.
6. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. An internal device error occured.
These errors keep appearing one after the other.
I have fully uninstalled iTunes and ALL Apple programs from my PC, rebooted, disabled antivirus/firewall software, etc.
I have tried changing time zones.
I have created a new user account on same laptop and still have same issues with iTunes.
Restore fails with error "Unable to read file or file is corrupt".
Yet iTunes works fine on a 32bit operating system of Windows 7.
The problem is that I upgraded my laptop and the new laptop is Win7 64bit. I have ALL the newest drivers, and I checked to ensure it was not a BIOS or CHIPSET driver causing issues. All windows updates are up to date and current.
I have been trying for over a week with every piece of trouble shooting I can find to make this work.
Any help or further information would be VERY GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks in Advance

I too am having the exact same issues on the same laptop! I spent an hour last night with "supervisor" in tech support who didn't solve my problem but did close the ticket (210757099 for any Apple people that might read this). Thanks a lot Ben!
I have seven ipod/iphone/ipad devices so I am very familiar with how to sync. In the last few weeks, version 10.2 of iTunes (I'm up to 10.2.1.1) has gotten less and less reliable in successfully sync'ing to the devices. It started out with my 3GS, but my iPhone 4 was fine. Then I got an iPad2 and now NOTHING will sync properly. Every time I plug one in (or press the sync button) it wants to do a restore from the backup made the last time it sync'd. It does that, reboots the device and sync's.
I've gotten a ton of errors, here's a sample.
iBooks couldn't be installed on my iPhone unknown error 0xE800000C
Textie couldn't be installed on my iPhone, unknown error 0xE8000013
"failed required file not found" - This is one of my favorite error messages. It demonstrates how Apple is becoming like Microsoft. It is 100% accurate and totally useless. It would be helpful if it told me the NAME of the file that was not found...
unknown error 0xE8004006
"duplicate file found" - Again, in true Microsoft form, it didn't tell me the NAME of the file that was duplicated.
I tried everything discussed in the following thread but it did not work.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2401822
Stopping the enhanced USB controller didn't work. Mine is the Intel(R) 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller (version 9.1.1.1020).
A few days ago I got hundreds of errors in a sync. When it completed, a dialogbox came up asking if I wanted to send this crash report to Apple, I said yes. So, crash reports are now automatically being sent. You can see evidence of this in the %appdata%\Apple Computer\Logs directory.
This section of the log looked interesting because it says it couldn't connect to USB mux port 32498

[4404 @ Tue Mar 22 09:05:05 2011] [(unknown facility) iTunes.exe] MobileDeviceConnectlocked (thread 5700): Could not connect to lockdown port on device
Just grasping at straws here....

  • Itunes and Iphone sync issues

    Hi There,
    So I have a slight problem and would be grateful if someone would shed some light as to how I can overcome this.
    I have an iPhone 5 and iTunes for windows, however, I have not downloaded the current software for the iPhone 5 as I do no have any storage space for it. I have recently tried to update my iPhone's music playlist but the playlist I want to sync is not, however, my old music and playlists keep syncing instead, and it keeps adding albums.In my new playlist I have approx 200ish songs whereas my iTunes is syncing over 700ish (and I've made sure I have not clicked and synced my library- my library has over 1000 so not sure where its syncing 700) I have tried several times to fix this by;
    switching off phone
    closing iTunes and opening it again
    creating a different playlist and re-syncing music
    de-selecting albums and artists manually
    de-selecting all music then syncing
    created a different playlist
    and none of the above have worked at all  
    It would be much appreciated if anyone has any advice or guidance as to how I can fix this, as I have new music I want to listen to, and with this new music I'll have more storage space!
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi R@chel,
    It sounds as if you are having difficulty making sure your iPhone only gets the music you want. In order to do this, you need to manually manage the data that gets synced to your iPhone. This article explains how to do so -

  • ITunes sync issues with Windows 7 64k Bit

    I am beyond frustrated! I have attempted for the past 3 days straight to figure out why iTunes keeps having syncing issues with all my devices- Nano 8GB, Touch 8GB, iPhone 3G 8GB. When I first connected the devices for the first time iTunes froze up and I had to hard boot. I then had to "restore" the devices as they were messed up. Since then I have had syncing issues. It says it is syncing but then it stops and freezes before it is finished and is unresponsive requiring me to end the program. Then my computer does not recognize the iPod is connected so I have to reboot my computer and it all starts over again. I'm not trying to sync a million song, 600 songs less than 2Gig.
    Called Apple, they had me uninstall iTunes 9 and reload it. That did not fix the problem. Called back and they told me to go to the Apple store and have them check my devices (they did not as they said they were pretty sure it was not iTunes or my devices) that it was probably Windows 7. MS points the finger at iTunes 9, Apple points the finger at Windows 7... all the while me (the customer) has no resolution. I don't care what the issue is... I would just like to figure out how to fix it (if it's my computer fine...I'll take it in to have it fixed) but I just cant get anyone to help figure out what/where the issue is.
    I have tried many of the "tricks" that are posted when you google the issue.. ie reinstall drivers etc. The "Genius" at the Apple store searchd and found something that said it might be my motherboard needing an updated driver (I updated that and nothing changed).
    Would REALLY appreciate it if someone could help
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Does your PC have a NVIDIA USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) chipset?
    If it does, you may want to try the Microsoft hotfix available here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976972.

  • Playback pauses and audio sync issues with live video stream

    I'm seeing playback pauses about every three seconds and audio sync issues with our live demo stream when using the OSMF/Strobe player.  It happens on both our 2Mbps 720p stream and our 480p 750Kbps stream so it does not seem to be related to higher resolution/bandwidth streams.  It also happens if I point directly to a stream asset or if I point to a .f4v with both streams listed for dynamic so it does not seem to be related to dynamic streaming specifically.
    The same live streams play back very well without pauses or audio sync issues in the Akamai's dynamic player and even slightly better with JW 5.2.
    I have viewed the OSMF/Strobe playback on three different laptops of various age (3 months to 2 years) and two are Windows and one is Linux.  I have also tried the various buffering options on the Flash Media Player Setup and Strobe setup and it has not made a noticeable difference.
    To see the stream with the Akamai player, go to:  http://live.kulabyte.com
    To see the stream with the OSMF/Strobe player, go to:  http://live.kulabyte.com/osmf
    I do not have JW set up for public viewing yet, but the two above show the distinct difference.
    We are really hoping to start pointing our customers towards the OSMF player because of the support provided by the community and Adobe, but we have to get the quality of the playback to be acceptable first.
    If someone has ideas on debugging I can PM the actual video assets to you.
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    You need to add this setting:
    dynamicStreamBufferTime=8
    The actual value can be higher or lower. The best practice is to use a value that is twice the keyframe distance. Anyway, try different values and see which performs the best for your content.
    I know that the setup page does not contain this option and it is not documented in the UserGuide. We simply missed it. Sorry.
    Also note that the dynamic buffering algorithms are not being used for dynamic streaming content. I tried to explain this here:
    https://sourceforge.net/adobe/smp/wiki/Dynamic%20Buffering/
    Looking forward to your confirmation that this solved your issue.

  • Intel and IPhone Sync issues

    Some forwarded this to me. It might be relevant to some users here.
    "Senior Editor, iLounge
    Published: Thursday, November 5, 2009
    News Category: iPhone
    Intel has issued a comment concerning the iPhone sync issues some users are experiencing with certain PCs containing a specific Intel chipset. “Our leading theory is a BIOS or system configuration issue, but we are still investigating,” Intel said. The basic input/output system (BIOS) is the boot firmware run by a PC on startup, which identifies, tests, and initializes core system devices such as the graphics card, hard disk, and other hardware. As we reported earlier this week, the syncing issue appears to linked to Intel’s P55 Express chipset and its USB controller, which leaves the afflicted machines able to recognize the iPhone but unable to sync. The problem has been most prevalent among PCs running 64-bit Windows 7, but the issue has also been reported on machines running both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of both Windows 7 and Vista."

  • Syncing issues with windows 7 and iTunes on a 64 bit machine

    When syncing iPhone to iTunes, windows closes iTunes when the first app starts to sync.
    Music and all other syncs transfer without an issue.
    Is there a computer protection setting that needs to be changed?
    Does windows see the app as a virus?

    Try the following steps:
    1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
    2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
    it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.

  • Major Sync and software update issue with windows 7 and iphone

    Loved my iPhone 3g and love my 4.0! My only concern is syncing and software updates are sporadic.
    When I first purchased and sync'd my 3g on my laptop, that I had since 2005 w/XP home 64bit, it would constantly (1 out of 5 times) show phone was disconnected and could not sync. Purchased a desktop, 2009 w/Vista 64bit (same issue mentioned continued) then upgraded to windows 7 64bit (same issue mentioned continued).
    Both pc's are authorized and contain the same apps and software. I went through all trouble shooting steps (authorize/deauthorize, phone hard boot, sync w/airplane mode on and/or off, uninstall and or reinstall iTunes, etc...) when both phones would brick after software updates on both pc's.
    The last software update 4.0 and most recent 4.2.1 went well on laptop with XP and no longer shows sync issue. The problem continues on the windows 7 and backup has completed successfully 3 times.
    Long story short, I have to pray the laptop never dies because iTunes, syncing and software updates on XP works now! The problem with software update, backups and syncing persists on windows 7.
    * I was able to apply 4.2.1 software update on XP and then connect to windows 7 to sync and backup successfully. I then disconnected/reconnected iphone to windows 7 and problem happened again, unable to sync phone was disconnected error message.

    I've had my new pc for over a year, never had any probs syncing my iphone (then a 3G but now the big 4!)
    I went to sync updates to Apps and a couple of tunes I had downloaded straight to my phone only to get an error message 'iTunes has stopped working - windows is checking the problem' followed by another messaged telling me there was a problem causing the program not to work correctly. Windows will close the program and notify me if a solution is found'
    Well..... I have NO music on my iPhone and every time I try to sync, the same error messages come up and the bloody program shuts down....

  • IPhone sync problems with Windows 7 64 bit

    I am using Windows 7 64 bit and Outlook 2010. I am trying to sync my iPhone 4 with my Outlook calendar and contacs but am not able to do so. I have checked that I want to sync under the info tab in iTunes and I have the latest iTunes and the latest ios for the phone. Can someone tell me what I can do to get my contacts and calendar to sync with Outlook 2010?

    "Try this connect the iPhone, let the mtp driver installation fail, then go into the device manager and uninstall the unknown mtp device. If you then scan for new hardware from the device manager it should recognize the iPhone & update the driver."
    Ok here's what I did:
    1) Connect the iPhone (iTunes had been installed)
    2) No MTP driver installation is happening as Windows detects iPhone successfully
    3) Open Device Manager
    4) There seems to be 2 drivers for iPhone that are active now, although I still can't see which one is the MPT driver you're referring to.
    One of them sits under Portable Devices: "Apple iPhone". If I view the details of this driver, it lists the following files:
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WpdMtpDr.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\winusb.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\WUDFRd.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtp.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtpUS.dll
    The other one sits under Universal Serial Bus controllers: "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver". And as indicated by Joe above, it lists the following files when I view the Details:
    - C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\usbaapl64.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\usbaaplrc.dll

  • IPhone - Sync issue with Calendar and Outlook 2003

    I have been syncing with no problem up to yesterday - now I can't sync my Calendar with my PC. It doesn't make any difference whether I make an entry in iPhone or Outlook. I have reset sync history in iTunes - no change.
    The only thing that I can think of that I did out of the ordinary was to copy and paste my contacts into another contacts group in Outlook.
    It would appear to be a problem with Outlook as the iPhone syncs with iCal and Address book on my G4 laptop.
    Appreciate your help.
    Alani

    Outlook is definately a problem. Ive been at it for a couple of days going through this thread and others. Still not syncing.
    What Apple has to realize is that windows people have different microsoft offices, i use 2000 because the schedule is shared between everyone, this is an addon in newer copys of office.
    When i make a call or recieve a call i would like to see an option to add the caller to the schedule .. When your on the phone with the caller you can just hit a button and it brings you right to the calendar and enters the caller in the schedule where ever you place them.
    Anyway i will keep at the sync thing for a while and see what happens. Nothing so far. l8r

  • ITunes and iCloud not Working with Windows 7 64 bit ???

    I just got a new computer running Windows 7 64 bit. I installed iTunes 10.5.2.11 (64 bit). First error was 'The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it as created by a newer verion of iTunes.' I closed iTunes and renamed iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.itl-old. Of course when I restarted iTunes, I didn't have a library but that was just a minor problem. iTunes created a new file named Library.itl.
    Now when I start iTunes it says 'A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or    reinstall iTunes. (-4204).' There's an OK button so I click OK. That error goes away and then the next error is 'This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not    installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove Tunes, then install    the 64 bit version of iTunes.'
    So I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled itunes about a dozen times. I downloaded it again to amke sure it was the latest version. Same errors every time. I uninstalled all my Apple stuff and reinstalled it. Same errors. Also, iCloud doesn't work. Error is "Application not found."
    So ***? iTunes won't recognize my iPod touch or my iPad 2. Tried two different cables. Suggestions???

  • Sync issues with Windows I tunes and ipd touch

    HI
    I am having some issues with transferring music to my ipod touch, the music is clearly displayed in I tunes, and I use the correct way to move the folder into the Ipod icon.......sometimes it works absolutely fine, and then I try another album and it just wont  transfer.
    I was wondering if there were any issues about which you connect first iTunes or Ipod first ?  that might make a difference..however which ever way I do it my Ipod is always recognized by I tunes straight away.
    could there be issue with the non official apple cable I am using.?.i don't see why as it will copy across other albums absolutely fine and charges up my idpod quickly
    I have also checked in the folders to see if there are any strange goings on with music tracks that might stop them from transferring across... but all of them are named correctly and in the MP3 format
    the albums that will not transfer do not appear to me to be in any way different to the albums that will transfer.
    any advice would be appreciated as it is quite frustrating not to be able to copy all the albums that I want to over to my Ipod touch
    Thanks
    Stu

    The message indicated the iPhone is synced with another library.  Syncing with this computer/library will wipe the contents from the device.
    Have you recently changed computers? Is this the same computer the device is always synced with? 

  • Update iTunes 7.3.2 and now sync issues with AppleTV

    I knew it, I installed the latest upgrade as it said it solved some issues with iPhone Activation etc and added stability, well Apple is very stable, so stable it does not sync anymore with iTunes.
    I tried removing and reconnecting it to iTunes, this at first seemed to help, but the sync stopped after 10 minutes...
    Anyone else have issues?

    I would have to agree Capaho because I tried everything before...
    Well its official, after trying every troubleshooting tip & talking to tech support which sent me some more help info. My ATV is dead. I thought I had a revelation on what could be done to fix it but I was horribly wrong...I unplugged the unit for the 15th time to reset it and when I plugged it back in I heard the pop, and ATV was on its way to the Great Gigabyte in the sky.
    I bought the unit July 5th. It now sits in the bottom of my trash can...funny thing is Im gona waste another $400. I cant find my receipt and it doesnt matter cuz even tho it was efed before it "popped" i still get blamed for user error.

  • Iphone syncing issues with PC - wanting 11.1 version of iTunes or better.  Downloaded but it still fails.

    Are people having syncing problems with iPhones ios 7 with itunes?  I am getting a message insisting that I need to download iTunes 11.1 or better for the backup and sync to work.  Having downloaded 11. it still doesn't work.  Anyone else having that problem?

    Okay, iTunes 11 (which version?) has been downloaded, but was it installed?
    Downloading and installing are not the same thing.
    What version of iTunes is actually installed on the computer?

  • Music Sync Issues with Windows 7 PC

    I am having issues where iTunes freezes when syncing music to my iPad. iTunes completely freezes, the sync doesn't complete, and the music is not seen as visible to the PC until a reboot. There are other posts in the forum for Mac users that talk about old plug-ins being the culprit; the instructions for how to find the plug-ins are written for Mac users, so does anyone know how to look at these with Windows 7? Also, there is a fix listed on the forum but my PC doesn't know what to do with these (doesn't recognize the program type). Any ideas on how to fix?
    The other posting also states that this can happen when an iPhone is on the same account...I have an iPhone on this account as well.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Nope. No hangs in vista not XP. But, I won't have a phone that can't tether so I don't have an iphone too.
    Is it backing up? I hear it's slow for lots of data. For no good reason other than a bad host tool (itunes).

  • Ipod sync issues with Windows 7

    I just purchased a new computer with the Windows 7 operating softeware and now I cannot sync my Ipod Touch (3rd generation) but I do not experience this issue with my old computer with Windows Vista.  When I need to update my Ipod I have to connect it to my old computer.  Help.  I do not want to pay Apple for support when I see countless post about this issue.

    Are you set to manually manage on both computers? If not, an auto sync on one of them will erase the iPod and place that computer's library on it.
    No that wouldn't be it. The manual vs. Auto sync setting is stored on the iPod, not on iTunes. So if you take a manually managed iPod and plug it into an iTunes it has never connected to before, the new iTunes will still recognize the iPod as manually managed and not do anything bad to it (in theory).
