Some people have had success trying the fix mentioned here.
Error 1417/1418.
Could you also take some time to pass some information for the Apple Engineers?  Please copy and paste these questions into an email, make the subject of the email "iPod error report", add your answers, and send the email to Roy at Apple.
1. What error code are you seeing?
2. When are you seeing it (restoring or updating your iPod)?
3. Which iPod do you have?
4. What version of Windows do you have?
5. What Windows service pack do you have installed?

    First see if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow a restore.
    Next try DFU mode and restore.

  • Itunes crashes when I try to authorise PC for Itunes match

    I have just subscribed to iTunes match but having trouble with iTunes crashing when I try to authorise / enable my PC to use iTunes match.
    I get a wt.exe error. Using Windoes XP. Any suggestions - tires reinstalling iTUnes but no joy.

    If you're running iTunes 6.0.5, I would need the crash log to figure out why you're crashing.
    Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
    drwtsn32 -i
    And hit return.
    This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log" If there's already a file there, it most likely has multiple crash logs in it (new crash logs are just appended to the end of the file). So, delete this file. This will make sure you're not sending extra information I don't need. These crash logs are text files, so you can open them in notepad or whatever to see what information you're sending.
    So, get the machine setup to collect crash logs, do the thing that makes iTunes crash. Send it to me. It doesn't hurt to put the URL to this discussion thread because I get a lot of these messages and are easily confused.

  • I have a ipod 3rd generation when i try to update it its says i have the latest version

    i have a ipod 3rd generation when i try to update it its says i have the latest version

    Look at the back of the iPod. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. The 2nd generation iPod touch is model A1288, and 3rd generation iPod touch is model A1318. If you have a second-generation iPod touch, the last release of iOS is can run is 4.2.1.

  • I have an Ipod 4 and when I try to update my Ipod it says make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active.

    I have an IPod 4 and when I try to update my IPod it says make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. How do I make it update?

    Are yo getting a network timeout error?
    Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

  • My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update

    My IPad says "cannot connect to iTunes store" when I try to update apps.  How can I resolve this?

    I had the same problem and tried absolutely everything...on my own and stuff I'd read on-line.  Nothing worked.  What finally did was this.  I held down an app until all started jiggling.  Then I deleted one of the ones that needed updating.  Then pushed the round button at the bottom of the iPad to stop the movement.  Then went to the "Featured" section of the App Store.  In the search box (top right corner) I typed in the name of the app I'd just deleted.  When it pulled up, I chose "Install".  Worked perfectly.  I went through this process, one-by-one, until I got all of them done.  Now, everything is updated. 
    Sure hope this helps you and hope this isn't the new norm for how to do updates.  I used to just select "Update All", entered my password, and the updates started happening. 

  • ITunes crashes when i try to restore my ipod

    So heres the deal. A friend gave me an 10gig second gen iPod which it was formatted for windows. Some of the music would not sync to the ipod. The warning I got said the software on my ipod was too old to sync all songs. When i tried to restore or update the ipod, itunes would just close.
    So, I reformatted iPod to mac os extended(journaled) updated iTunes to 7.2 (was 7.1.1) and iTunes still crashes when I try to restore or update. I get the folder and triangle.
    I have spent the better part of this weekend trying to get this fixed. I have searched the forums here and tried everything that was suggested. Somehow I need to restore it but iTunes keeps crashing.
    What else is there to do?

    Hey buddy,
    I don't know how far you got with your problem. But in the end I had so many problems with Lion and iTunes. I backed up all my stuff using time machine. Did a full format and reinstalled Lion. My problem has now gone. It'll take a day or two to fully get you back to where you are depending on applicatiosn and your data.
    Another thing I had enabled was Disk Useage on my Classic. I unchecked that in itunes too after the rebuild and I didn't have any other problems too.
    I'm not sure what the problem was, but I encountered unexpected Finder freezes and I needed a rebuild.
    Hope this is of some help. Good Luck if you haven't solved the problem yet.
    It seems as though you and I were the only one havcing this problem.

    My iTunes keeps crashing when I try to sync my iPhone as well as when I try downloading the newest iPhone upgrade 2.2.1. I just tried to restore my iPhone and once again iTunes crashed (at around 224MB into the download of the upgrade).
    I've restarted my iPhone.
    Restarted my iMac.
    Re-installing iTunes.
    Tried installing iTunes 8.0.1 (instead of 8.0.2).
    Created a new user to check if that was the problem.
    All with no success.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Itunes crashes when i try to open it or open in safe mode

    For the last week or so, itunes has been crashing when I try to open it.  I've also tried opening in safe mode by holding down the shift and the control key and it never gets into safe mode, it still just quits.
    I need to sync my iphone, ipad, and ipod. Not to mention download material from the store.
    thanks,
