My iPad won't sync. I didn't used to have any trouble but now it says that "The iPad cannot be synced. Unkown error (1150)." It is a loaner from the school but I never had trouble syncing music or apps to it before.

From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060 :
The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
iPods need less power to charge them (their wall charger is half the power of the iPad's, 5W as opposed to 10W), so are more likely to charge via USB

Why do I keep getting this message: " The phone cannont be synced. An Unknown Error occured (1150)."

I've tried for 2 days to sync my phone with iTunes but it won't let me saying that the phone cannot be synced because an unknown error occured (1150). I've tried resetting my sync history and resetting my firewalls to allow iTunes but nothing I've tried seems to work. Suggestions????

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

Hi. I am having the same problem.
I have updated iPhone software and carrier settings, OSX Lion on the comp and in step 4 of 4 during photo sync about half way through, the error message comes up and now my pics are gone from the phone. I did empty the cache and the problem still persisted. I changed cables, I restored the phone and synced from the back up and even restored and created a new phone identity, still no love.
I am puzzeled, any suggestions?

Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be 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.

Hi giggle chops,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below explains why you may get this specific error message. Follow the instructions below to disable any third-party plug-ins by opening iTunes in Safe Mode:
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3430
Symptoms
Add-ons, such as plug-ins and scripts, not manufactured by Apple (third-party) add features to iTunes or modify its appearance and behavior. Using these can interfere with how you use iTunes. For example, if you upgrade to a newer version of iTunes, your add-ons may not be compatible.
You see this alert while syncing: "... cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified."I
I hope this information helps ....

I'm getting an error that says "The iPhone "------" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Everything will sync but the music. I am an administrator and all the files are organized. How do I sync my phone?

I cannot sync my iTunes library or any playlists to my iPhone due to a message that reads "The iPhone "-----" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access priviledges for this operation. I also have music on my iPhone that will not sync to my iTunes library. Any way to sync the two together?

I hope this helps. Not the easiest fix, but I suspect it will solve the problem.

I had itunes played from my PC to my music system that is connected through a nework. It use to work fine, but now I get an error message that say "An error occured while connecting to the Airplay Device "Stereo". An unknown error occured (-15000)".

When trying to play itunes from my PC to my stereo connected to an Airport Express, I gen an error that says "An error occured while connecting to the Airplay device "Stereo" an unknown error occured (-15000)". This has happened before and for reasons unknown to me, the problem corrects itself, then it starts again/ Makes me wish I did not have my music on itunes.

moehadi, Welcome to the discussion area!
This is typically caused by a firewall or Internet security software running on your PC. Please read the comments in "Error -3256 or -15000 when streaming to AirPort Express base stations using iTunes".
Also there is "iTunes 8: Unknown error -15000 when attempting to stream music to devices connected to AirPort Express with AirTunes".

Itunes says 'the ipod cannot be synced A duplicate file name was specified?

it says this - 'the ipod cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified' every time i plug in my ipod, i have not downloaded a new itunes recently, nor do I have a new ipod, this came from completely out of the blue.

The solution i found to this problem is have windows hard drive recovery tool scan and repair the hard drive on you ipod. To do this, you need to configure itunes so it does not open when you plug in you ipod. Next, plug in your ipod, for windows 7 user a pop up should come up asking to scan and fix device. click yes and give it some time. after the tool in complete unplug you ipod, open itunes, plug your ipod in. if you still get the message, click restore, and start this process on more time. If you do not have windows seven or this pop-up does not appear manually go to you hard recover tool and have it scan your ipod. then follow the rest of the process.

IPad 1 is recognized by iTunes running on Windows XP but will not sync (new problem, used to work fine). The iPad and all its contents displayed but warning box says the iPad is not connected. Tried soft reboot. All software versions current.

iPad 1 connects to iTunes and displays in the left column. All elements on iPad displayed. However, it will not sync. Displays message that the iPad is not connected. This is a new issue. Used to work fine. All iTines and iPad software up to date. Ran HELP diagnotsic in iTunes with iPad connected - no issues noted. Attempted soft reboot of iPad. No help.

Issue hopefully resolved. Required Apple store to delete all info from iPad and reinstall operating system. Had to reload all data, but it seems to be working fine. Cause unknown.

Itunes won't sync to my brand new ipod classic. It says "The Ipod cannot be synced because it cannot be found.

I have been onto Apple by phone, and into the Apple store where both of them recomended that it gets replaced. I did, got a brand new ipod classic, and i still have the same problem.
I have attempted to restore, but it won't let me for the same reason.
On a couple of occations it starts to sync!! however it goes through practicly the whole syncing process (12,000 songs, heaps of videos) and then just freezes up! The little rainbow orb spins forever until i have to force quit.
I have had my old ipod and my partners ipod regestered and used on the one itunes with no complications whatsoever, our old ipods sync perfectly with no problems at all.
very frustrated.
Is it my Ipod Box?
Or is it Itunes?
or does it not like me having more than two ipods registered?
with the last new ipod which was replaced and the current new ipod that's a total of 4 ipods regestered on the one itunes
My partner has a Dell Laptop with Microsoft. I downloaded Itunes on there, ripped one cd, formatted the current new ipod, and it synced the one cd i ripped with no trouble at all.
Has anyone else had the same problem with their Ipod Classic?
Mick

Is iTunes up to date (10.7)? Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB or using a different USB cable?
I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread to check your Hard Drive's health. He always covers what the resulting numbers indicate.
