Itunes sync error code -54

I have an IPAD2, IPOD, 5S and 6....each time I connect to Itunes I get sync error and the code is 54.
Code is not listed on Apples Support page of various codes.
Uninstalled Itunes, restarted Windows PC, dowloaded and reinstalled ITunes, same issue.
Is there a solution to this problem?

On the Windows version of iTunes, error -54 means a general IO error occurred that can be caused by many different things: a file is corrupt, a file is locked, or an .m4a file could not be converted to a lower bit rate.
iTunes Library cannot be saved (Error -54) - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1912814
Unknown error (-54) while syncing ipod - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1082953 - problem was locked files
Why does iTunes keep showing a -54 error when I sync my iPad? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114
Error -54 possibly related to Touch Copy - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114 - cleared by deleting preferences on iPad.

  • ITunes gives error code -54 when sync with my iphone 5

    iTunes gives error code (-54) when i try to sync with my iphone5

    I am having the same issue. Since updating to iTunes 11 my iPhone 5 will no longer wirelessly sync. I am operating the latest version of Mountain Lion on a two month old Macbook Pro. When I plug in the USB I go through the steps of making sure the box is clicked to Wireslly sync, but after a few minutes of un-plugging the cord my phone dissapears from my devices. It tries to locate it, but cannot.
    Furthermore, when I launched iTunes 11 for the first time my phone was synced, but since I accidenttly hit the eject button in the top right, this button has yet to come back. Even when the iPhone is linked via USB. Am I Crazy, stupid, or is this a bug?
    BTW, how did MrTrav15 have this problem on 10/17 a month-and-a-half before the launching of iTunes 11?

  • Sync error code (-54)

    I get the following error code when attempting to sync my 5s on my HP computer running Win 8:
    -The iPhone 5s cannot be synced.  An unknown error occurred (-54).
    I purchased AppleCare when I bought this phone and after multiple phone calls with AppleCare the last contact I had, I was told "We will review the diagnostic files you uploaded, and I will call you back."  That was three weeks ago, and after sending two follow up emails, now the supervisor at AppleCare has not and does not call back to resolve. (I think AppleCare is no longer the value it once was).
    Has anyone else had the sync error code (-54)?
    How did you resolve it?

    Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
    repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)

    That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).

  • Hi, my iphone 5 will not restore through iTunes.  Error codes 2001 and 2006 appear.  Please help.

    Hi,
    My iPhone5 will not restore through iTunes.  Error code 2001 appears and once I received error code 2006.  Please help?

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.

  • Itunes 8 error code 13014

    I just dl itunes 8 and it will not open. It keeps giving me error code 13014 and then quits. I have my library synced to an external hd and i believe that is the problem. Any suggestions?

    Sorry to trouble you, but may I ask for some help...
    Where are the genius files? I have the same error...
    And sadly, I agree with a lot of the sentiment here. As a CTO of an all Apple company, I too note the shift to buggy software and hardware defects. Yes, Microsoft is worse, but at least they have to support millions of configurations.
    Apple controls the whole package, and the quality is simply terrible.
    But enough of my rant. If someone can let me know where to find these files so I can get iTunes working again, that would be great.

  • TS3694 How can sync error code 1723 be resolved?

    Unknown error code 1723 prevents from syncing Ipad with Itunes.
    How can it be resolved?

    I've had this same problem, and after several tries I finally solved it. It seems to be related with a corruption of the iPhoto Library:
    1.- Quit iTunes.
    2.- Open Finder, and go to wherever your iPhoto library is stored (usually ~/Pictures).
    3.- Right-click on the iPhoto Library and select "Show package contents"
    4.- Delete the "iPod Photo Cache" folder
    5.- Close the finder window
    6.- Open iPhoto. It might take some time for it to reload the library, but it's ok.
    7.- When iPhoto finishes loading the library and you can browse your photos, close iPhoto
    8.- Open iTunes, goto your device's Photo tab, and make shure the Sync photos options is UNCHECKED
    9.- Sync your device
    10.- After the sync finishes, CHECK the sync photo option. It will ask if the photos already in the device should be overwritten. I anserwered yes
    11.- Select which photos, events, albums or faces you want to sync,
    12.- Sync your device again, and it should do it, including your photos
    Hope this helps.
