  • My iPod cannot be synced. An internal device error occurred.

    I have a macbook and recently (within two week's) got my ipod 4g. It was fine until this morning when i tryed to sync it and it said:
    "The iPod "matt walsh's iPod' can not be synced. An internal device error occured. "

    - Reboot the computer
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another cable and USB port.
    - Next would be to place the iPod in Recovery Mode and then restore. This erases the iPod.

  • TS1424 iTunes won't open due to a DEP error-Vista

    My iTunes will not open on my vista because it says there is a DEP error. I've tried everything and I can't get it to work.

    You're welcome! Glad you got things sorted out.

  • ITunes won't install due to package problem - Error 2330

    I tried to install iTunes 8 yesterday for the first time and when I launched the Apple Installer and it gets most of the way through when the following message appears: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330."
    I ran the installer again and created a log file of the install process if that could help someone?!?!
    Any information would be greatly appreciated. This is my first time dealing with Apple as I received an iPod Touch as a gift the other day and now cannot connect it to get it working!
    I am using a PC and have Windows Vista Home Premium.
    Thank you.

    There is a list of WIndows installer errors here:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372835.aspx
    2330 is: Error getting file attributes
    Often with error, a file name is mentioned - sometimes there is a corrupt file.
    It is worth running a disk check to see if a filing system error shows up.
    If nothing shows up and you can identify the problem file, sometimes renaming if or containing folder, assuming it is within an iTunes related folder.
    Otherwise, if no file was mentioned, maybe you could search through the log file for error messages or 2330 to see if anything shows up that may indicate what the problem is.

  • The ipad cannot be synced. An internal device error occured.

    Can't sync ipad. Can't restore.

    I had the same problem. But I was able to fix it with a little luck.
    If you have a backup of your iPad that is functional and has value, hold on to it.
    First, restore/wipe your iPad so it is empty execpt for the stock software.
    Begin to restore your iPad from the backup.
    As it is working, click on the "Manage My Own Music" selection on the iPad sync window. Will ask if you are sure, say yes.
    Un-check and Re-Check the top box in the music section of the sync pages.
    Click Sync at the bottom and let it work.

  • Trying to sync iPhone to pc but keeps getting internal device error on screen, also showing only 4gb size instead of 32gb. Uninstalled iTunes from pc and reloaded. Powered back up and all songs and info still in place. Anyone had this problem before?

    Doublechecking something Emcee. I see you've got Windows 7 x64, so I'm assuming you've got at least 4 GB of RAM. Do you also have an NVIDIA USB EHCI chipset on that PC? If so, see the following Microsoft document:
    [You encounter problems when you move data over USB from a Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer that has an NVIDIA USB EHCI chipset and at least 4GB of RAM|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976972]

  • HT1386 Internal Device Error" during iPhone/Itunes Sync

    I had this sync error every time I tried to connect my Iphone to my MacBook, "Internal Device Error" and the sync failed.  I figured out if I powered off my phone, and powered up again, the sync succeeded.  
    I think it was because there were open Apps.

    I just bought a new iPhone 4 and I too am having this annoying issue. I took the phone back and exchanged it.. We'll see if it happens again.
    Hoping for an apple answer here..

  • ITunes won't sync music to my iPad

    iTunes won't transfer all the music from my computer to my iPad. The sync starts, it transfers about 500 of 2500 songs, then just stops.
    I have tried disconnecting wifi, reinitialising the iPad and practically every other tip I could find on this forum: no joy.
    Just seems incredible that the music I have (mostly) paid for on iTunes won't sync from one device to another. Are Apple trying to get me to pay for iTunes Match?!
    Thanks in advance for your help...

    I don't use and never have usediTunes Match, I almost never buy music from iTunes, and I can sync all of music just fine - purchase and imported from CD's.
    Have you tried syncing with the cable if you are using WiFi? Do you have enough storage space on the iPad? Could it be that the sync stops in the same place very time indication a corrupt song or album? Have you tried syncing the music in bits and pieces - simply as a troubleshooting step?

  • My ITunes won't sync my ipad and closes down in the middle. I have Windows 7 Ultimate. How do I fix this problem?

    My itunes won't sync my ipad and closes down in the middle of the attempted syn. I have windows 7 ultimate. Any ideas about what to do?

    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, attempt to sync with iTunes while logged in as a new admin user. Follow these steps to create a new administrator user within Windows:
    From the Start menu, choose Control Panel.
    Open User Accounts.
    Select Create a new account and follow the instructions to complete the account setup process.
    Once the new account is created, choose Log Off from the Start menu.
    Log in to the newly created user account.
    If the error does occur in the new user account, the issue may be caused by content downloaded or created on the device, such as podcasts and voice memos. Removing content from the device may address the issue.
    If the error does occur in the new user account, the issue may be caused by content downloaded or created on the device, such as podcasts and voice memos. Removing content from the device may address the issue.
    If these steps do not work at all, I would suggest calling AppleCare at 1-800-275-2273 (assuming your iPad is stilll within support or has an AppleCare Protection Plan) and let them know you have already tried all troubleshooting steps per TS2830.

  • I get an internal device error when trying to sync my iphone 4

    Every time I connect I either get a message from iTunes that it doesn't recognize the phone or it tries to sync it and can't ending with an internal device error message.

    I had the same problem. I got it working a few hours after setting up the account. Go to the firefox button and click sync now. This solved the "Failed Server Lookup" issue for me.

  • Any reason why iTunes would not sync with my iOS device using USB cable?

    Hi there,
    what could be the reason if iTunes won't sync with my iOS 5 devices via USB? The devices are recognized in iTunes (I can see the devices there and all the content stored on these devices), but the sync does not work...
    BTW: I tried several different USB cables already...
    I am using Mac OS X Lion on a MacBook Pro Late 2011.
    Thanks
    Ralf

    I can't recommend any learning resources, especially since what you are going to be doing likely falls under the category of basic untutorialed coding.
    When I decided to take the plunge I had a project in hand that I had just created in AS2, and what I did was restart the project using AS3, tackling each coding element as it came up. One nice thing about AS3 is that it is much better with pointing out coding errors--while cryptic at times, you get better at interpretting them with time--and when you don't get any, chances are you are on the right track.  So you try something and if it flies, great, and if an error message pops up, you pursue solving the error.
    In most cases, the Flash help documents are a sufficient reference, but in other cases I would rely on Google.  Just as a for instance, you mention using key listeners... That would be something I would have serach Google using "AS3 key listener", and I'm willing to bet you'd find something to get you over the hump.  Sometimes it helps to add "tutorial" to the end of a search string... it can help weed out all the others that have psotings on forums that are offering problems rather than solutions.
