"iTunes could not connect to the iPod "iPod touch" because an unknown error

I bought an ipod touch today, hooked it up, and got this error
"iTunes could not connect to the iPod "iPod touch" because an unknown error occurred 0xE8000001)."
<Edited by: Host>
Has anyone else had an experience like this?

Yeah! Same here... It's like when I connect my Touch to the computer and open itunes, it just freezes and i have to click the close button all the time... It's really annoying. It just happened a couple of days ago.

    Try connecting the iPod touch to the computer you normally sync it with.
    This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 provides details about the passcode lock feature.
    If you cannot remember the passcode or don't have access to the computer that the iPod is normally synced with, you can restore it from recovery mode and set it up as a new device without any data. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 will walk you through restoring from recovery mode.

  • ITunes could not connect to the iTunes Store "Error Message"

    I recently added iTunes 7.6 to my Windows XP operating system at the same time when I added an *Ion USB Turntable (TTUSB).* I currently have the 80G iPod with the larger video screen. I added in the supplied software of the EZ Vinyl Converter. The software reads from Gracenote and imports into iTunes okay. But now my PC cannot access the iTunes store to buy songs, read the tracks on the discs, or display new album artwork. The diagnostic read the network connectivety test, the CD/DVD drive, and iPod connectivity tests all read okay. I followed the directions on checking the network settings under the Internet Options Tool "Connections" Lan Settings and the Automatic detection and still no dice. All I get is "Make sure your network is active."
    Can anybody help out their?

    I'm seeing this error on some, but not all, of my Windows XP machines. On my personal development XP box, I see this error if iTunes is closed when I try and access iTunes U via my transfer script or Stanford's.
    "iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The network connection was terminated unexpectedly. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    The errors occured in IE 7 Beta, Firefox 1.5.x, and Firefox 2 Beta. In each case, iTunes U loaded after I clicked the 'ok' button in iTunes. I did notice that in Firefox's case an additional pop-up window appeared that asked whether or not I had iTunes; when I selected that I do have itunes, it transfered me to iTunes but generated the error.
    After getting these errors on my Windows XP machine, I tried it on two different lab machines running Windows XP, and didn't get the error message once -- I tried it in IE 6, Firefox 1.0.x and Firefox 1.5.x and they all worked. It even worked with IE 7 Beta and Vista Beta.
    Based on this, I think the problem must lie in how Windows registered iTunes, and the handshake just isn't happening properly.
