My ipod cannot be synced. An unexpected error occurred (13019). HELP PLEASE! What do i do?

This message pops up everytime i connect my iPod into my computer! I dont know what to do with it. Please help me!

update to the latest version of iTunes. If updating to latest version of iTunes does not resolve the issue, then:
1. Select the iPhone or iPod touch in iTunes under Devices.
2. Click the Music tab and under the Sync music option, choose Selected playlists.
3. Deselect the Voice Memos playlist.
4. Click Apply and then click Sync.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, check the device and the iTunes library for duplicate voice memos. If you find any duplicate voice memos, delete the duplicates and then sync.
If those steps do not resolve the issue, then:
1. Select the iPhone or iPod touch in iTunes under Devices.
2. Click the Music tab and deselect the Sync Music option.
3. Click Apply and then click Sync.
4. After the sync is complete, reselect the Sync Music option.
5. Click Apply and then click Sync.
If the Error 13019 occurs while syncing content other than music, then perform the same steps above but uncheck the content that stops syncing with Error 13019.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, attempt to sync an empty iTunes music library to the device while logged in as a new admin user.

    Can someone here help me.

    I have a similar problem. After having a lot of drama with backups freezing and not completing I had to click on the 'x' to procede with any sync's. Now that 3.0.1 came out I decided to update when the popup came up saying would you like to update.
    I went ahead, it downloaded the update then it couldn't install it and came up with errors. then my iPhone displayed the USB cable and the iTunes logo on the screen, now it won't do anything and iTunes won't recognise it.
    I've tried to reset it, and reset my computer but nothing works. I am not uninstalling iTunes and re-installing it to see if that works. I now have lost everything on my iPhone I presume.
    I am furious.

  • The Ipod "Name's Ipod" cannot be Synced. Unknown Error occured (-48).

    This is the error message I have been getting for the past two weeks while trying to add music to my Ipod. I have tried repairing itunes, installing updates as they come, even reinstalling itunes and doing system restores. It seems nothing is working. Friends have suggested using different USB slots, restarting the computer while Ipod is still connected and again nothing is working. So anyone know what to do?

    I am getting an error message of I/O operation error, when trying to sync my iPod. I have been having this problem since July when I updated to iTunes 7.7. After contacting Apple on numerous occasions, including driving over 50 miles one way to an Apple store to have some dead-behind-the-eyes kid tell me that he doesn't know why it won't work, I am still having difficulties syncing.
    I have contacted Windows, since it was their error message, and was told that an I/O message is in regards to the outside device that I am trying to sync, which eliminates my PC from this equation. I am also able to successfully sync my old 4GB mini and my wife's nano without any issue. I believe that my Classic is not giving my PC the correct driver that it requires to connect and sync.
    I have been going on almost 2 months without my iPod (what a waste of money!!!!)Please...somebody help, because it's pretty apparent that Apple could care less!!!!!

  • I keep getting an error message that says "the ipod cannot not be synced""an unknown error occured (13019).

    I keep getting an error message that says "the ipod cannot not be synced""an unknown error occured (13019). I am trying to put albums on to my ipod by dragging and dropping. I have it set to manually manage music and videos. The albums appear in the music section under Devices, but they don't appear on my actual ipod.
    I have never had any problems doing this before, only in the last few days.

    I am having the exact same issue as you are with my iPod nano. This started happening the same day after I updated the iPod software, so I wonder if it is a bug within the software that Apple needs to resolve. I dragged 3 playlists of new music from my iTunes over to my iPod and sometime while it was trying to add those songs, the error 13019 popped up. Another note, which may not be related at all, was that iTunes told me at some point during this process (I believe before the error notification, but I'm not sure and that may be helpful to know) that I did not have enough room on the iPod to copy all of the songs, but it would copy as many as it could. What is curious, like in your situation, is now all the songs it supposedly copied appear to be on the iPod under the Device->iPod->Music label in iTunes when it is plugged into my computer, the playlists in question are also showing up there, and it does indeed say my memory is full under the iPod's general tab in iTunes. However, when going through my actual iPod when it is not plugged in, none of those songs or playlists are anywhere to be found.
    Anyways, all the established solutions to the 13019 error do not apply to this situation, as my iPod has always been set to manually managed so "unchecking" the Sync Music option under the Music tab of the iPod and rechecking it will not work because it was never checked in the first place.  And voice memos are obviously not applicable since we are not talking about an iPhone failing to sync music.
    Unless anyone can provide a new solution here, I may just have to take my computer and iPod up to the genius bar. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Ipod cannot be synced.  Unknown error (-48)

    I've had my 80 gig ipod classic for 4 months now, and I've had very few problems with it. Whenever I've had an issue with iTunes not recognizing the ipod when I plugged it in, it was easily resolved with a reset or reinstalling iTunes, or restarting the computer. However, today when I went to add some new files to my ipod, I had to install the newest version, 1.1.1, and after installing that version and trying to sync the files to my ipod, iTunes simply refused. Repeatedly I'd get the error "Ipod cannot be synced. Unknown error (-48). I've been browsing this site and others to find an answer, I've tried all the standard ipod fixes (five Rs) and toggled with the syncing options, namely syncing only checked songs and manual sync, and it won't load any new music either way. I have Windows XP home edition on a Sony Vaio that's a few years old, and I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me fix this issue with my ipod.
    <edit>
    Another thing I've noticed is that when I leave my ipod plugged into my computer, the "other" part of what's on my ipod increases slowly. There's actually more of this orange "other" data on my ipod than music, and there's absolutely nothing on my ipod except a few thousand music files and two videos. At least, there shouldn't be.

    Oh yes, me too. Two days ago I bought my 160GB iPod Classic, but I have not been able to put anything in it. First the sync seemed to take hours (ca.6GB/1400 songs) and finally I had to disconnect without eject, because the iTunes and my computer got jammed. Again and again the same thing. Unknown error (-48) I recall.
    Then after updating the iPod software (now 1.1.1) and reinstalling the iTunes a couple of times, the iTunes does not recognise my iPod at all. iPod says first it is syncing, then just connected, but nothing in iTunes.
    Like a kid with who has a brand new toy, but is not able to play with it.
    I tried calling the Apple support, but they just dodged the question and apparently had no idea. Anyone, how can I get some music into my brand new iPod?

    Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.

  • Ipod cannot be synced internal device error

    This has been very aggravating for me for a while now. I've been trying to sync music on my ipod touch, but I keep getting a message that says "ipod cannot be synced internal device error". I tried to restore my touch and I even downloaded the latest updates ..but no use. Every time i try to sync.. I get the same message..I'm starting to give up hope. I've searched everywhere and can't find a solution. My ipod touch syncs on my desktop.. but not on my laptop(contains all my music). If I can get a solution, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    did you check your security software settings? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125
    Did you restore "as new ipod" without using the backup to restore afterwards?

  • No music after 3.0 upg.: cannot be synced an unknown error occurred (-208)

    Upgraded my iPhone 3G to 3.0. All went smoothly and everything seems to be working fine. Only issue was that my music had disappeared. Went on to resync it but iTunes shows that the music is still there - but I cannot do anything with it: cannot add to it, cannot delete it, etc. Suspect files are fine but library is corrupt. Was hoping that adding or deleting a song would force a library reindexing but no luck.
    "the iphone "name" cannot be synced an unknown error occurred (-208)"
    Any suggestion on how to resolve this (outside of a device reset...)?
    Thanks in advance.

    The software can be found on Download.com, it's Ipod Copy 7.47. It's $20, but works perfectly.

  • Windows Journal cannot open " ". An unexpected error occurred in Windows 7 Professional

    I copied my Windows Journal Notes from a tablet with Windows XP Tablet PC edition onto my Windows 7 Computer.  When I try to open a note from the pull down "look-in" menu within the Windows Journal program, I gives me the error
    "Windows Journal Cannot open.  An unexpected error occurred."  I thought this was a problem with my computer, BUT have replicated this same error on every computer in Best Buy and other computer stores.  This is not a problem with
    my personal notes.  This is a problem with the coding of the Windows Journal Software on Windows 7 and 8.  It was also tested on a Vista computer with the same error.
    Please, if someone knows how to fix this problem please let me know.  I use Windows Journal exclusively on a tablet PC for my business and am afraid of upgrading from XP to Windows 7 or 8 unless I can see that the Win7 version of JOURNAL works properly
    as the WinXP Tablet edition of Win Journal.
    Note: I have tried recreating user profiles, sfc.exe, cleanboot, safe mode, chkdisk.... all failed.  THE PROBLEM I BELIEVE IS THE ACTUAL CODE that is written for Windows Journal.  ALL notes can be opend by hitting FILE-OPEN.  However, if you
    go to the "view recent notes" button and click on the "look-in" pull down menu within the Windows Journal program, you can not open the file through this.  Because of the way I do my business, I need to look up various files quickly
    and write notes after opening each note from the "look-in" pull down menu.
    Please Help.

    The problem seems to be that the "look-in" menu doesn't open the files which are located in the "Notes" folder.  If I open the files through windows explorer in windows 7, the file opens into windows journal and appears in the look-in menu.
    Another interesting thing occurs if you create an additional folder under my documents.  I tested this on various computers in an electronic store:  Windows Journal was working fine with the "look-in" menu; I was able to open various journal note
    documents.  Then, once I created another folder under My Documents and tried to open a journal note in that folder and then go back to the "notes" folder, I was able to replicate the same error message.
    In short, it seems that once a new folder is created, the original folder "Notes" as well as the new folder, both do not allow for the files within them to be opened through the "look-in" menu.  However, they may be opened from hitting FILE, then OPEN. 
    But, the "look-in" and Browse menu doesn't work.
    Also, I looked in the Event Viewer and couldn't find anything in particular related to Win Journal.  Please tell me what and where specifically to look in the Event Viewer --- I can't seem to find anything related to Windows Journal errors in the Event
    Viewer.
    Thank you.
