Keep Receiving (-69) Error Message when Syncing iPod

Yesterday, after a lot of trouble I purchased myself a 30GB iPod video for my birthday. For the past 24 hours I've been trying to upload my videos and music to the iPod however it only uploads up to a certain point (about 1.5GB of data) and then refuses to upload anymore. I just keep receiving the same message:
"Attempting to copy to the disk '[iPod's name]' failed. An unknown error occurred (-69)."
I have already used the 5 R's about 4 times. All of my music and videos are in the correct format. Sometimes, while trying to watch the videos or listen to music I can hear the ipod working or it takes the music a few seconds to load up and videos will play well for a few minutes and then either shut down, scramble or just not play at all. I have an iPod mini and have never experienced any of these problems before with it. This is very frustrating. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried everything I can think of short of going to an Apple store and asking to have it checked out.
  Windows XP  

Yeah I've already tried that and unfortunately it hasn't helped. One video or file may be considered the problem but once I delete some files or restore the entire iPod that same file will upload on fine. It seems to just refuse to sync anything beyond a certain point of data storage.

  • ITunes displays -48 error message when syncing iPod Nano on Windows XP

    My girlfriend's mom's iPod Nano ran out of charge while jogging so she decided to charge it on her daughter's iHome. The next day she went to use her iPod but it was totally empty of all music and files. When she tried to sync it to iTunes, she received an eror message stating, "An unknown error has occurred (-48)" from iTunes and a Windows message stating that some iPod folder/file was corrupted.
    If anyone receives such a message, I was able to correct it by:
    -Plugging in your iPod to your PC
    -Ignore the error messages
    -Go to My Computer
    -Find your iPod's drive letter (ie. G:)
    -Right-click on it and select Properties
    -Go to Tools Tab >Error-checking and select Check Now
    You should be able to sync your iPod as before. I do not claim to be an expert so be warned that it may not work for you. Good luck!

  • I keep receiving an error message when I try to send an adobe document through Outlook email.

    I keep receiving an error message when I try to send an adobe document through Outlook email.
    The message is : Either there is not default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the message request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client.
    I have checked everywhere on my system and changed Microsoft Outlook as the default mail program but nothing is helping. Does anyone have any ideas?

    I am having the same issue, just replied to a different post on the issue.  I am running Acrobat X Pro with Win 7 Pro 64-bit.  This is a new PC, but my last PC was a 32-bit OS and I didn't have this issue.  I was suspecting that it is due to the 64-bit OS. 
    Reading this post though, I am starting to wonder if there isn't something else going on.  When I go to Edit>Preferences, I don't have anything related to email under Categories, or even within any of the categories listed.  I am I missing a plug in or something?  Or is this a component of a previous version of Acrobat?
    I tried to attach a screenshot of the error message but getting a new error while trying to attach!  File is only 25kb!  Will have to live without i guess.

  • Error Message when syncing Ipod Touch

    Just had my computer rebuilt, I have installed Itunes 10 but I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my ipod which is "You don't have enough access priveleges for this operation". Any ideas on how I can overcome this? Thanks in advance

    You need to check your logon's access privileges in Vista. You may have to delete your current profile and recreate a new Admin profile to correct.

  • HUGE Error Message When Syncing IPod!!!

    alright well first of all i have the new nano 4G ipod. Recently i added a TON of new songs, and apparantly i went over the size limit that my ipod could hold. In other words I had more songs on my itunes library than could fit into my ipod. I found this out when I tried to sync my ipod after adding all of these new songs. This is the error message I got: "ipod cannot be synced because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist"
    Now it gave me a temporary playlist before but i accidentally deleted so now I get this message. I really really really need help is there anything at all i can do I'm seriously going to die if this doesn't work soon =[

    You get this problem when the option 'Sync Music - Selected playlists' is being used to sync your iPod and then the playlist it has been updating from is deleted. Most people use this setting when the iPod is smaller than the iTunes library. If your library is larger than the capacity of your iPod, iTunes by default makes a new playlist called something along the lines of "Owner's iPod". If you for any reason delete it, you will not be able to sync your iPod.
    Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in Sources. You can make this a normal playlist and drag whatever you want to it or you can make it a random Smart playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano). Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    To make a random playlist go to File>New Smart Playlist.
    Uncheck "Match the following rule"
    Check "Limit to" put "3700" in the number box, choose "MB" from the first list box, choose "Random" from the next list box. Check "Live Updating"
    When you want to change the selection in the playlist just delete everything in it and it will add a new selection

  • The iPad "my iPad name" could not be synced because the iPad could not be found on the network.  Why am I keep receiving this error message when i try to wifi synce my iPad?

    How can I fix this problem?  The iPad appears under devices in iTunes but when i try to synce it, thats the error message I receive.

    Hello Gentlemen,
    I too have the same problem, and I see that nobody has found a working fix yet. How dissapointing. I would have thought that Apple would have tried to fix this by now. Who knows how many others are in the same boat?
    I am unable to sync my iPad at all. This means that I can't make a backup and so can't clean and restore it. I can't add any music. I can't get my photos off the iPad either. And so on! My brand new iPad is incapable of doing anything usefull! Don't fret Apple, I WILL tell all my friends what my opinion of your devices are.
    In my opinion this is a CRITICAL FAILURE FROM APPLE!
    I believe that it's undeniable that this is a stupid uniformative error message that leads me nowhere.  Of course the connection went away. BUT WHY? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM IF YOUR ERROR MESSAGE  DOESN'T GIVE ME ANY USEFULL INFORMATION????
    AND WHY CAN'T I CAUSE IT TO SKIP OVER THE BACKUP STEP SO AT LEAST THE DEVICE HAS SOME FUNCTIONALITY?
    There are no published fixes that work.  The only thing close, was a recommendation to reset the iPad and try again. This didn't do anything but waste more of my time.
    Hopefully, my Rant will cause someone to take a stab at coming up with a resolution. I JUST NEED TO KNOW HOW TO GET MY IPAD WORKING AGAIN.
    Is that too much to ask?
    Regards,
    Steve

  • Error message when syncing ipod classic 80 GB

    After I connect my ipod to itunes and I try to sync it, an error message pops up saying "The ipod cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-48)." What does that mean? Is there any way to fix this without having to restore the ipod?

    I have a 160 GB ipod and I have the same problem. When I connect it says it doesn't recognize my ipod and suggests I restore it. I just did it with success, but I keep having these warnings as soon as I try to sync again.
    some help please?

  • Error Message When Syncing Ipod "There is no disk in the drive ... "

    When doing a search on the internet for this error message, i see a few other previous posts on forums.ilounge.com with others having this issue with Itunes, but all I can find is someone talking about deleting the Itunes preferences files on my computer, and I did that, but that didn't help. I was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas.
    I get this annoying message EVERYTIME I sync my Ipod:
    "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive G:".
    (Drive G on my computer is my Ipod when i have it plugged in). It doesn't seem to interfere with anything; all I have to do is click continue and the message goes away. But as I said, it's annoying, and I want it gone. I want to avoid reinstalling Itunes if I can due to the hassle of having to do so, plus previous posters on forums.ilounge.com said they did so an it didn't help. If someone can direct me to a previous string where this has already been discussed please post me the link. thanks!

    Hi there
    I am also getting this error message. One day my iPod was syncing fine, the next I was getting this error message. I have tried every conceivable drive letter, and still I get the message. i have also tried every drive on my computer, still the same message.
    I have restarted and restored the iPod several times, no change to error message.
    I shelled out £16.99 on a new sync cable, thinking that might help - but no, i still get the same error message.
    In addition, my iPod screen displays the DO NOT DISCONNECT sign.
    I seem to be able to perform a sync, but at the end, when iTunes says sync complete, the error message appears on my screen (incidentaly the header bar of the error message says: CorelLOMonitor.exe - No Disk) and the iPod screen continues to flash "Do Not Disconnect". This continues indefinatly and I have only been able to stop it by unplugging the iPod form the Sync cable.
    I really would welcome some assistance with this problem.
    Many thanks

  • Error message when syncing iPod

    I have a 2nd Generation iTouch and just recently when I go to plug my iTouch into sync, an error message comes up. It says "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install iTunes again." I have already removed and re-installed iTunes and am still recieving the same message. It was working fine at first but just not started to not be able to sync iPod to computer. What do I need to do?

    Same thing occurred to me today. Just restore your iPod. That seemed to work for me. There were suggestions to uncheck the option to display artwork, remove iPod, then to check it again and sync the iPod, but that didn't solve the problem for me.

  • Error message when syncing Ipod nano

    Every time I have tried to sync my ipod the last week or so, I get an error message saying the disc cannot be read or written to or Error 14-. When I tried to restore the Ipod, it could not even do that and I got an Error 1439. Can anyone help?

    There was a problem with my USB port connection. I was using a cheap multi USB port extender which had given me problems with my palm pilot as well. When I connected the IPOD directly to the computer I was able to restore and sync it.
