    "ITunes could not sync mail accounts to the IPhone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers."
    Any ideas what this means and how to fix it? I really hope 2.1 gets this thing working again...

    You can either setup your mail account settings manually or sync your settings to your phone. If your mail accounts are already setup on your phone, there is no need to have this box checked in itunes.

  • "iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iPhone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers.

    When I sync my 3g iPhone to my laptop - windows , I am getting a new message that "iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iPhone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers.
    Can anyone help me to solve this issue ? relly its a major problm

    iTunes is running into a conflict between mail account information already on your iPhone and the accounts you are trying to sync.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer. In the Advanced section under the Info tab, check the box next to "Mail Accounts". This will replace the mail account info on your iPhone with the accounts you are trying to sync.
    If this does not work, then reset your sync history by opening the iSync application, going into the preferences, and clicking Reset Sync History.

  • ITunes could not copy "Song Name" to the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (-50)

    Recently when I tried syching one of my playlists into my iPhone 4 (Running on 5.1) using iTunes 11.2.0.26 for Windows (Windows XP SP3), I have been having a problem with some songs I acquired recently.  It will sync all the other songs, but when it reaches the song in question, the following error message pops up:
    "iTunes could not copy "Name of Song" to the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (-50)"
    After which, it stops synching songs altogether.
    I tried TWO different USB connectors (BOTH from Apple), and the error still occurs.  When I remove the song in question, ALL songs sync normally.
    I used the 'Get Info' option to see if there was something in the way the song was coded.  This info is from one of the songs that gets synched normally:
    Kind:                  MPEG Audio file
    Size:                  11 MB
    Bit Rate:            256 kbps
    Sample Rate:     44.100 kHz

    Format:             MPEG-1, Layer 3
    Channels:          Stereo
    ID3 Tag:            v2.3
    Encoded with:   LAME
    THIS is the info on the problematic song:
    Kind:                  MPEG Audio file
    Size:                  8.2 MB
    Bit Rate:            256 kbps
    Sample Rate:     44.100 kHz

    ID3 Tag:            v2.3
    Encoded with:   LAME3.96
    By the way, BOTH song (The ones synching normally, and this unsynching song), where purchased and downloaded from Amazon.com.
    ANY information that will help me solved this problem will be VERY appreciated.  Likewise, if you need any additional information, please let me know...
    Thanks for your time.

  • TS1424 Has anyone encountered trouble transferring rented films to their iPhone? I get error message "iTunes could not copy [film name]  to the iPhone because the file could not be written"

    I have dowloaded a film to rent. Downloads to iTunes without problem. However it does not transfer to my iPhone.
    At first it appeared on iTunes as though it should be on my phone (it definately wasn't).
    Apple Support sent me film to download again.
    Tried to transfer it again tonight and the error message I get is: "iTunes could not copy [film title]Spy to the iPhone because the file could not be written"
    Can anyone help ASAP

    Two possibilities come to mind.
    Check your source hard drive for errors, right-click on the drive holding the library, click Properties, tools, check for errors, scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors...
    Or...
    Repair Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
    If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges.

  • Itunes could not sync mail accounts to the ipad beacuse the mail accounts are in use by the ipad

    hi all  just syncing pc and ipad after 7.0.3 upgrade and get the message that itunes could not sync mail accounts to the ipad because mail accounts are in us eby the ipad.  i know i have seen several older threads on this,. but now cant find them.  any ideas how to get over this problem message?  many thanks

    When my icloud account is attached to my device I go to mail, contacts, calendars, and there is absolutely no way to remove my mail account. When I deleted my icloud account it suddenly gave me a way to delete and readd my mail account, and synching became feasible again. Synching wasn't possible for me, when I had an icloud account. I suppose the icloud idea still isn't feasible, at least Ican't figure out how to use it.

  • TS3297 Tried to copy a movie from my iTunes account to my iPhone and keep getting this message--.  iTunes could not copy "L.A." to the iPhone "Michael's iPhone" because of a timeout occurred.

    Tried to copy a movie from my iTunes account to my iPhone and keep getting this message…….  iTunes could not copy "L.A." to the iPhone "Michael's iPhone" because of a timeout occurred.

    I completely understand what is happening. I know that you are connected to the Internet. I made the suggestion because I have seen it work in similar circumstances. The Apple iTunes servers can be a bit fussy about things and sometimes rebooting the router clears up this miscommunication between iTunes and your network.
    Have you tried signing into your account and then try to sync again. Go to Store>View Account. You will have to enter your password. Then try to sync again. Or try signing out completely in Store>Sign out. Quit iTunes, sign in again and then try to sync again.
    Sometimes refreshing settings will help clear up weird problems.

  • ITunes could not copy "insert song" to the iphone "insert name of iphone" because the file could not be read

    It's about time i posted something about my problem because i've searched everywhere and I did not get the answer i wanted.
    When i try to put a song (Drag and Drop) from my Library to my Iphone, the message "iTunes could not copy "insert song" to the iphone "insert name of iphone" because the file could not be read" shows up. I have no idea how to fix this, I haven't seen apple answer to a single one of these threads either.
    I've only seen users try to answer this question.
    Anyways, when i put the songs on my Iphone, it is also grayed out. There is also a dotted circle (symbol) beside the checkmark of the song.
    I've tried creating a AAC version of all the songs already. No luck

  • Itunes could not connect to the iPhone "" because of an unknown error occur

    New to iTunes and iPhone (3g 8gig black)...
    Apple store was unable to activate the phone in the store...
    I installed iTunes today 7.7.0.43 and plugged in phone and got the message:
    itunes could not connect to the iPhone "" because of an unknown error occurred (0xE8000035).
    Vista thinks I have a "Digital Still Camera" when i plug it in but the driver for the "Digital Still Camera" fails to install...
    I rebooted the computer.
    I restarted the iphone (Pushed top button then slide to power off and then pushed again to power on)
    I reset the iphone (top and home button for 10-15 seconds till i saw apple logo)
    any ideas?
    ps - i tried calling 1-800-my-iphone but i was unable to get to a person - is their tech support always that crappy or just today since its launch day?

    This may not make you feel any better, but it's not you, it's not your new phone, and it's not the way Apple normally works. It is extreme overload for today. I have one of the original iPhones, and today I tried to simply get the new software, and after all the download and firmware updating, I got the same message you did. It had persisted all day, and, I'm sorry to say, is likely to for the rest of the day. I'm on a Mac, so it's not a Vista thing, either. Other people I know who bought the new phone are also experiencing the same thing. Spread the word! Discourage anyone from upgrading today! Or they, too, will be WITHOUT A PHONE!!
    Good luck to us all,

  • Itunes could not sync mail account ... because the iphone canceled the sync

    Hello
    I get the error "Itunes could not sync mail account to the Iphone "........" because the iphone canceled the sync
    Calendar, Bookmarks, Music and Video are Syncing ok
    Strange !!
    Any Idea ?
    Best
    Cyril

    i had a similar mail sync issue with a pop3 business account. i think the issue was i deleted the account from my iphone instead of removing it thru itunes. this was causing the canceled mail sync error with any changes to my syncable mail accounts to my iphone. so, i went it and re-added that pop3 account and it solved the problem. it now syncs everytime and allows me to make changes to which accounts i want on my iphone....which wasn't happening before.
