"no default mail client" error when iPod touch is plugged in

I use my iPod with a Mac at home and a WinXP box at work. I have a new 2G iPod touch. Whenever I plug it in at work and start iTunes, I start getting this error. The error window will pop up once or twice and then go away, at least for a while.
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
Yeah, right, like I'm going to do that. This seems to be coming from the program OutlookSyncClient.exe -- I don't have my iPod set to sync Calendars. So why is this happening and how can it be made to stop? Is iTunes trying to email someone? And why is Apple trying to get me to use a Microsoft email program? Insanity.

I just started getting that same popup error constantly, since upgrading to the latest iTunes version last night. I think in my case it's happening when the auto-sync to MobileMe is triggered. I don't have M$ Outhouse as my default mail client and don't want to make M$ Outhouse my default client, but I have been syncing calendars and contacts through it to MobileMe because it doesn't support syncing directly to the things I really use. Previously it worked OK without requiring me to make it my default client... what changed?

XCode 3.1 Crashes when iPod touch is plugged

Hello
I had an old iPhone SDK, where there is no iPhoneOS and iPhoneOS Simulator yet ,
instead of them, it contains Aspen and Aspen Simulator.
When my iPod is connecting and xcode tries to upload app I get the
error. (i had not signed it from apple yet, it's in progress now, so i
get error during upload)
Some days ago, I download latest iPhone SDK, and after installing it,
i have a problem - when iPod Touch is plugged, xcode crashes, because it can't
get a _AMDevice...USBID symbol. at
system/library/privateframeworks/mobiledevice.framework/versions/a/mobiledevice
I tried to replace this framework, from older sdk, but the problem
does not disappear. then I replaced
developer/platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/developer/library/xcode/plug-ins/iPhoneRem oteDevice.xcodeplugin
by file from oldest sdk, from aspen platform,
developer/platforms/aspen.platform/developer/library/xcode/plug-ins/aspensupport .xcodeplugin
after doing that, xcode does not crash anymore, but when i try to
upload my app to iPod i get an error that "not provisioned iPhone OS
device is connected", and iPod does not react to this, and I noticed
that the time between clicking build'n'go and the appearing of this
error is too short, imho. i think there is no attemt to connect to the
device, but in the organizer iPod is present.
SDK was installed after updating to iTunes 7.7, BTW, iTunes also crashes during upload apps.
I can't understand how i can fix this.
So is it correct to replace new xcodeplugin, by oldest xplugin from other sdk ?
Please advise.

which build of SDK need to use ?
can someone give iPhoneRemoteDevice.xcodeplugin from developer/platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/XCode/Plug-ins
and MobileDevice from /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework/Versions/A
I already try some builds, but only one work with iPod, but there is no iPhoneOS platform, only Aspen
BTW, what difference beatween Aspen and iPhoneOS ?

Default mail client error

Hi;
I get this error mesage when trying to sync my Iphone to my PC:
*"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."*
I have Outlook Express. Under OPTIONS=>GENERAL=>DEFAULT MESSAGING PROGRAMS its says "This application is the default mail handler" . Is there another setting I've missed ? Please advise. Thanks!

The sync mail accounts setting only syncs the account settings, not the mail itself. There's no reason to do it more than once - account settings don't change (unless you make a change such as password).
Connect your phone with iTunes open and you'll see your phone show up as a device tab on the left side of the window. Click the "Info" section (on the top of the device window). Uncheck the comcast account, or better yet, uncheck "Sync Mail Accounts."

No Default Mail Client Error with Outlook 2010, Server 2008 R2 Terminal Server, and TAM

We are running a software package on a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server called TAM (The Agency Manager) along with Outlook 2010. The application uses a MAPI connection to retrieve mail data from Outlook to be able to send and receive messages inside
the application. On our individual PC's this works just fine, but on the Terminal Server users we get the message "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook
and set it as the default mail client."
I've tried the steps listed in KB 813745 which tells you to delete the registry keys and run a repair in Office, but that didn't resolve the issue. I've searched on this issue, but haven't found anything useful. Any suggestions would be much
appreciated.

Try to set DEP and add outlook.exe. I had outlook 2007 same problem. With DEP enabled and outlook, word en excel also added to the list it worked again.
You can find it under this computer, properties, then change settings. Click advanced tab and then select the first "settings" option.The click the "Data Execution Prevention" (DEP) and select the last option and add the office programs
there.
Hope this helps.

ITunes 8.1 freezes when iPod touch is plugged in, unfreezes when pluggedout

I've just updated my iPod touch 1st gen to 2.2.1, it was working and syncing perfectly for two days. This morning, when the iPod touch was plugged into iTunes, iTunes froze when the iPod was recognized by the computer. I tried plugging the iPod touch out of the computer, and iTunes almost instantly went back to functioning correctly.
If I attempt to start iTunes with the iPod already plugged in, it starts up frozen and does not function. I have to use Task Manager to manually quit the process every time.
This is all still strange since the only thing different I did from last night is download several podcasts and update one app. I've tried deleting these podcasts and uninstalling the app, but to no avail.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dave,
Try putting the iPod into recovery mode and restoring it in iTunes as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
This would erase the contents of the iPod but you can check iTunes for a backup before restoring from recovery mode. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 provides more information about iPhone backups.

Com shows blue screen error message when ipod touch is plug in

hey, anyone has this problem?
when i plug in my ipod touch, a message "new hardware is found" with name (still digital cam). then the com switches to a blue screen with error messages.
i need some help please.. thanks

One cause of this is that you have saved a picture on your Touch when browsing the internet on Safari (by holding down on the image & selecting save). These saved images seem to cause a glitch and the PC thinks you have plugged a digital camera in causing the PC to crash. Don't know of an actual fix yet. The only work around is to delete the pics prior to plugging in the Touch. If you really want the pic just email it to yourself via wifi first. Funnily enough it is not a problem if the pic was on your pc and you synced it to the Touch via iTunes.

Error when iPod Nanno is plugged in

I can open my iTunes when my iPod isn't connected to the PC, but from the moment I plugg it in, it gives an error.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thank you for reading this

I'm not sure, it's Dutch, and in Dutch it says:
In iTunes is een fout opgetreden en moet worden afgesloten. Onze excuses voor dit ongemak.
U was bezig met een bewerking. Deze gegevens zijn mogeljk verloren gegaan.
Als u meer informatie wilt over deze fout, klikt u hier.
Basically it just says there is an error, doesn't really specify. but it does show a button with more information, but I don't understand any of it.

Strange noises when ipod touch power plugged and headphones cable connected

Hi everybody,
this is my first post. It has been annoying me for a long time now.
The thin is, when I plug in the ipod via charger or USB cable and I want top listen to music while it charges i get this crackling noise and a high pitch one as background atmosphere which is ok if you listen to loud music but very annoying if you listen to calm music.
I want to connect it to my stereo and i found out that when I disconnect the power cable its allright. When I put the audio cable on the metal sufrace I just get the crackling noise without the pitch and when its plugged into usb and connected to my ipod I can modify the noise when i scroll on the touchpad. Its like scraching on vinyls but not cool.
I don't know what to do. I mean sometimes you want to listen to music AND charge your ipod right?
Has this happend to anyone?
Best regards

Well thanks for pointing me to that feature, I didn't notice it before, but nobody there really has the same problem.
They are complaining about not being able to charge and listen at the same time. This is histroy since iOS5.
I shure can listen to my music. And for example via bluetooth its no problem being connected and listen to music, even while I sychronize. But if I plug in the audio jack, and have the ipod charging I get this noises.
I hope the problem is now more precisely described.

Either there is no default mail client of the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request-----error Outlook 2010

I've tried EVERYTHING suggested in this link (http://blog.timolthof.com/outlook-no-default-mail-client-error/) and everything google and bing and still this message keeps popping up. Now when I do a windows search for email, I'm not able to view
the email due to this message.
For the record, I am running W7 Ultimate x64 and connected via Excange Server. I do have another system that is running Office 2010 with none of these problems so I don't know if it's related to Exchange though the searches I've done don't allude
to that.
What's up?

Hi,
I understand that when you tried to open Outlook 2010 beta on the Windows 7 64-bit computer, you encountered the following error:
"Either there is not default mail client of the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and
set it as the default mail client."
You have checked the settings under the registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Clients\Mail\Microsoft Outlook
I understand the inconvenience you have encountered and appreciate the time and effort you spent on this issue. Please be assured that I
will try my best to help you.
Now let’s troubleshoot the issue by the suggestions below. Please check the results after each suggestion until the problem is resolved.
Suggestion 1: manually set Outlook 2010 as the default e-mail client on Windows 7:
===================
1.
Click Start.
2.
Type "default programs" in the
Search box.
3.
Click Default Programs under
Programs in the search results.
4.
Now click Set your default programs.
5.
Highlight Microsoft Outlook on the left.
6.
Click Set this program as default.
7.
Click OK.
Suggestion 2: Start the Outlook program in safe mode
==============
1.
Click Start, point to All Programs, and then point to
Microsoft Office.
2.
Press and hold the CTRL key, and then click the Outlook program you want to start.
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Outlook program, we can try
to disable them. Normally, you could do the following to disable the conflict add-ins in your Outlook program:
Disable add-ins
Click
File menu, click Options >
Add-in, click Go button in the Manage:
Com-in Add.
Check if there are any add-ins,
clear the checkbox to disable them.
Close the Office program and
restart it.
Add one check back each time to the list of Add-In,
restart the Office program, and repeat the above procedure. Once the issue reappears again, we can determine which add-in causes this problem and then disable it.
Suggestion 3: Test the issue with a new Windows user account
==============
We can follow the steps in the articles to create a new user account to test the issue. If the problem does not occur in the new user account, some settings
in the old account are corrupted. We can copy the main user files from the old account to the new account, delete the old account, and then continue using the new account.
For the detailed steps on how to create a new user account and copy data from the old account to the new account, you can refer to the following articles:
For Windows Vista/Windows 7:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Create-a-user-account
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. . If anything is unclear or if there
is anything I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.

When clicking on an email address in a website, and Yahoo web mail is the default mail client, the TO address is prepended with the "mailto:" tag, and of course bounces. Why and what to do about it?

In a website, when an email link is clicked, the "mailto:email@address" tag is called, which opens the default mail client.
A friend has Yahoo web mail as his default mail client. When he clicks on such an email link in a website, the TO address appears in the new email form prepended with the "mailto:" tag, as in mailto:[email protected] This of course bounces.
I don't use web mail, so can't help him, but maybe you can provide a reason or a cure for this. Thank you.

Set Microsoft Outlook as the default mail client.

Every time I am trying to sync my calendar, notes and mail account with my iPhone through iTunes I keep getting a notifactions saying 'Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client'.
The problem is that Outlook IS the default client.
Why can iTunes not complete this task for me...
Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 Build 14.0.4536.1000 64-bit.
Thanks.

I'm getting this and it's really annonying. The Nokia PC Suite provided a basic but functional PC calendar. Surely there's a simple PC client for the iPhone Calendar somewhere. I use Outlook Express and started using Outlook 2002 to manage my calendar but since a recent iTunes upgrade it's stopped working, giving this "default mail client" error. When I set Outlook to be the default mail client it made no difference.
Apple - you've scored an own goal here. Something that did work now doesn't work, and the only thing that's changed is your software.
I don't doubt it's down to compatability with M$ Outlook Add-ins, but they've not changed.

Outlook 2013 (Office 365 Install) unable to set Default Mail Client

After installing Office 2013 via Office 365 for Business, the installation is unable to set Outlook as the default mail client. Message appears after each system reboot:
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
When going into Control Panel and manually set the Outlook client as the default, the setting does not take. After a reboot, the warning message reappears.
Anyone else having the same issue?

MJ
No but then again it is a Beta. Did you clean install or update? 9926 seems to be relatively stable.

Win 8.1 2010 Outlook Error message: "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill..."

When trying to open Outlook in Win 8.1 I get the error message:
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
It eventually opens but none of my Mail accounts load. When I click on one of the accounts I get
"Cannot expand the folder. Internet mail is not registered properly. Re-install and try again."
Outlook is set with all its defaults. I've tried going through the Repair routine for Microsoft Office but it doesn't help.
