Pairing file is missing...what now?

I tried to update to IOS 5 but I got an error message that said, "Could not connect to iPhone because pairing file is missing".  If I start over will the backup file be overwritten?  I do not want to lose all the pictures I took with my phone.

Did you ever resolve this issue?  The same thing just happened to me.

  • Preview is missing, what now???

    I lost preview 4.0! It was there one day and gone the next. All I have now is the first verson of preview and it will not open in 10.5.8. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get it back? Also, how it the **** did it leave in the first place. needing a little help here.
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Find the 10.5 installer disc that installed 10.5 on your machine and use http://www.charlessoft.com/ 's Pacifist to extract Preview and put it in your Applications folder.
    Then run the 10.5.8 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL866
    Finally repair permissions with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility.  Select First Aid, and click on the hard disk on the left side of the Disk Utility window.  Repair Permissions should become clickable.  Once that is done, Preview should launch fine.

  • HT2905 Display duplicated isn't available in my file selections.   What now????

    have may duplicates.   Just installed itunes and it took everything from my external drive as well as hard drive.  Uninstalled and tried again without external drive attached.  
    Still got all the duplicated.    Search for duplicated not in the file area on my itunes.  HELP...

    The show duplicates/show exact duplicates features have been left out of iTunes 11. Rumor suggests they will be restored in the next build. In the meantime I have written two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates, either from a selection of tracks or the entire library. Note that, as with the iTunes feature, this list makes no distinction between "originals" and "dupes", you have to decide which is which.
    There is also my DeDuper script for automatically removing duplicates copies but keeping one remaining copy of each set. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.
    If you want to manually remove duplicate tracks use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send the others to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file. Same advice to backup applies.

Right-click the iPod Photo Cache folder, select Move to Trash. Now sync and the "this iphone can not be synced.  The required file is missing" error should be fixed.

    If all your files are missing
    You may have logged in as a different user, such as Guest. Open the Users & Groups pane in System Preferences. Your name should be at the top of the user list, under Current User. See also this support article.   
    If files are missing from one folder
    Change the Finder view mode; for example, from icon view to list view, or vice versa.
    If files are present, but seem outdated
    You may have started up from a different volume (disk.) Open the Startup Disk preference pane and check the selection.

  • I have 2nd gen. Ipod shuffle I restored it and now when i am trying to sync it, it is showing that some files are missing and it is not getting sync what should i do???

    Master reset...? Your device was jailbroken prior to you purchasing the device. The only symbol you should see on reboot is an Apple symbol. Download redsnow... google it! Download the latest version and your IPSW (ipod restore firmware) it has to be the correct version. And the "just boot tethered" should fix your device.
    But that's only if you didnt back the device up. If you don't care about any of the data on the ipod then you can simply open itunes navigate to the device and click the restore button. This will restore the ipod firmware and install a fresh copy. Good luck let me know if you have any problems.

  • My ipad 2 is a few months old now and has just had its first glitch, it will sync ok as long as I have no photo sync selected, as soon as I select to sync any photos off my imac it mentions that no sync is possible because a file is missing? What file?

    ipad 2, it says version 4.3.5, has just had its first glitch. It will not sync iphoto but everything else sync's ok.  I did restore to factory settings because it came up with (error -50) now it mentions a file is missing, but no longer mentions (error -50). This is the first problem I have had.

  • During installation of iTunes appears an error message: Itunes cannot run because some files are missing. What can I do?

    Recently I received an iPad2 as a gift. I had iTunes because an iPod I had. First I put some productivity apps through my computer. Then I bought some other games apps through WiFi. then when I try to synchronize, I lost my productivity apps and just keep those buy on WiFi. Now I try to install iTunes again, and what I received at the end is a message that tells me "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes".
    I did it a couple of times. Same result. One of this times, I also retired those programs recommended on help page: iTunes, QuickTime, Bonjour, Apple Mobile, etc. (in the order indicated)
    Your help will be appreciated.

    same issues here... Using windows 7... I can't install none of the 3 soft. No Safari... No Quicktime... No Itunes... Running 32 bit windows... Error messages "Error 7" and some other error messages durint install...  Any help will be appreciated... Thanks

  • Mozilla was slow and i have reset it! Now, all my bookmarks are gone and when I try to recover it, it says not possible to process the file! WHAT NOW?

    Today my Mozilla was slow and as the solution i was offered below is reset to its default settings and Mozilla would like to keep all the old data! Of course, that I did that and for a minute an unpleasant surprise!
    No bookmarks, no history nor can add Bookmarks in the toolbar or the back button works (works with backspaceom) nor offers page while typing in adressbar.
    I find a bunch of online tutorials recovery but nothing! Firefox is saved on the desktop folder "Firefox old data" but when I go importat says "file can not be prosecuted."
    What now?
    Bookmarksi are very important to me and I am now as one eye!
    Now Mozilla is not remembering browsing history neither!

    Hello,
    Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
    #Use <u>one</u> of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
    #*Click the ''[[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar|Firefox button]]'' to open the menu and click on ''Bookmarks''.
    #*Click the ''Bookmarks'' menu and click on ''Show All Bookmarks''.
    # At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
    # Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
    # In the new window that appears, click OK.
    # Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
    For more information, see the [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] article. For other solutions, see the [[Recover lost or missing Bookmarks]] article.
