Runtime error when syncing P1i with PC

I get a runtime error when syncing my P1i to PC. The error is linked with this file, 'dxp syncml.exe', and the application is said to request the 'Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way'. How do you fix this?

Thanks Joanne. Let me give you feedback on whats happening so far.
After some doing, I discovered that my firewall is controlled by Norton Firewall Provider. (Bear in mind I am a novice in terms of managing these computer protocols). To modify the firewall settings, Norton calls this in their the control panel 'Smart firewall', I go to program control then configure. A list of programs came up with the options to add, modify, remove or rename. I searched the list and found that DXP SyncML.exe and mRouterRuntime.exe were listed and set to 'Auto' in the Access column. I noticed that under access, the options include auto, allow, block and custom. I reasoned that 'allow' is the highest level of access, and to support the sync feature, I changed the status to 'allow' from 'auto' for the DXP SyncML and mRouterRuntime executable files. If you believe it is ok and safer to keep the auto status, advise me.
I did not find in the listing any of these programs; Bearer Abstraction Layer (SCBAL.exe), Generic Device Management Executable (Generic.exe) or Symbian Connect Object Model for Symbian Connect QI (SymbianConnectRuntime.exe).I did a search and located the generic.exe and the other two files under 'common files' in 'teleca shared' folder, and 'symbian' in 'shared' and 'symbianconnectruntime', respectively.
Norton's control panel for Smart Firewall gave me three options when adding programs: allow, block and manual configure internet settings. The last of the three was recommended by Norton. However, I selected 'allow' for the generic.exe, symbianconnectruntim.exe and scba.exe.Please advise if you believe I need to modify the terms I entered to set up this procedure (is there a better setting that allow me to achieve the same level of functionality without compromising my security?)
Now Joanne, whats left is for me to try the sync after making these changes. I feel as if I accomplished a lot by only reaching this far. I will have to do a reinstallation of the SE PC Suite before moving on though. Let me explain.
When the sync failed repatedly because of the unexpected termination linked with the dxp syncml.exe, I uninstalled the SE PC Suite which was done from a disc, and installed a version from the Sony website. That version is 1.6.0, with a copyright date of 2006. With this, the sync worked. By the way I am using Windows 7 Starter. Now what I am going to do later is uninstall this version of the suite, and reinstall the one from the disc that was linked with the problem we are solving. When I do that later, I will give you feedback.
Just in case you are wondering, I have a vested interest in using the PC Suite from the disc. This application works fine for the file manager component where the drive on the phone and removable media card are read. In the 1.6.0 version, I cannot get the file manager to see the phone as connected though when I put the card (is that called M2 disc?) in the phone, it reads. So, I although sync is working with the 1.6.0 version from the website, I want to use the version I have on disc if the sync component gets over the problem we are trying to solve.
Hope I am on the right track so far I thank you profusely for your patience and dealing with my qeurry; the solution will make a world of a difference for me and many other P1i owners. Look foward to the follow up

TS3833 I am receiving this error when syncing my ipod: iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "name" because an unknown error occurred (-50). I am using iTunes version 10.6.3.25. Why?

I am receiving this error when syncing my ipod: iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "name" because an unknown error occurred (-50). I am using iTunes version 10.6.3.25. Why?

Right click the filename that won't download and selsct 'Get Info'. Look at the file path, does it have a //?// in it? That is a problem with Amazon downloads that prevent iTunes from finding the file. Use 'Add Folder' to add the album to your library and try syncing it again

Permission errors when using File Sharing

I am having permission errors when trying to transfer from Mac to Mac over the network using Filesharing.
I mount the other computer, but when I try to copy I get:
"You may need to enter the name and password for an adminstrator on this computer to change the item named "xxxxxx""
(but I am signed in with adminstrator accounts)...I click continue then get:
"The item "xxxxxx" contains one or more items you do not have permission to read. Do you want to copy the items you are allowed to read?" ....I click continue then get:
"The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items"
thanks

I had to reset the permissions on the "other" machine as well using the Installation boot disk.
That seem to fix the issue.

Error when syncing photos...

Always copied from one device to another without problems! I use the latest version of ITunes. Thanks

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

Invalid File Name Errors when syncing to Ipod

Ever since an update last fall I have been getting Invalid file name errors when I try to sync my ipod. A window would pop up saying "Windows could not copy 'SONGNAME' to the iPod 'IPODNAME' because an unkown error occurred (-37)." I would press OK and another window would immediately pop up that would say, "Attempting to copy to the disk 'IPODNAME' failed. the file name is invalid or too long."
The windows would keep popping up countless times until the sync would just seem to time out and stop.
The problem songs would have no problem playing in iTunes.
Prior to the update this did not happen. No new songs were added around this time and nothing was changed to my file directory structure. I was too busy to troubleshoot this problem at the time and hoped that another update would fix it. Well, here I am many months and updates later and still no fix. After fiddling with iTunes and resetting my Ipod multiple times (goodbye saved angry bird games)I have found out that:
1. By writing down the file name when the error windows pop up I can get a partial list of the problem file names. I could not get a complete list of the problem files because the sync would time out before a full list could be compiled (the list appears to be in the hundreds).
2. If I changed the name of the file by adding OR deleting one character, remapping the song in itunes, the song would then sync properly.
3. If I changed the name of the file, remapped the location of the file within iTunes, changed the name of the file BACK to the original name that iTunes supposedly had a problem with, and then remapped the location of the song within iTunes, the song would then sync properly
4. If I moved the song to a different directory without changing the file name, remapped the song within iTunes, the song would sync properly.
5. If I moved the song to a different directory without changing the file name, remapped the song within iTunes, moved the file BACK to the original directory, remapped the song again, the song would sync properly.
6. If I renamed the file and then named it back to the original file name WITHOUT remapping the file location in iTunes, the song would still not sync properly
7. If I moved the file into a different directory and then back again without remapping the file location, the song would still not sync properly.
8. Changing or deleting the tags has no effect at all.
9. File name lengths are already under 200 characters and there are no special characters used.
So, to sum up, I have found out a way to fix the issue. The problem is, that there are hundreds of songs that appear to be affected and renaming or moving every single one individually and then remapping is extremely inefficient and ignores the cause of the problem. I also did not want to delete the itunes library and then add all of the songs back in because I have many custom playlists that I have spent hours creating and I do not want to delete them.
Is there a better way to fix the problem? Especially if someone knows the root cause?

I got a procmon log file and examined it. I have the file and I could also provide you with that or screenshots of it.
There is nothing unusual about it. I can see entires in which CR has successfully opened the report and has cached in a c:\windows\temp.
However there is one or two non-successful entries that may be related, especially that examining the stack trace brings us to a call to get_ProductLocaleID():
- A call to read reg entry HKU\S-1-5-20\Software\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports\Locale fails with NAME NOT FOUND.
- immediately after that and from the same process (w3wp.ex) there is a call to open directory "c:\" which is logged as ACCESS DENIED.
Any subsequent unsuccessful calls seem to be results of exception handling in the debug code.
Does this point to any setup issues with CR? We always run the redistributable x86 runtime when installing it.

Blue Screen Error when syncing ipod touch 4g 32gb with i tunes 10 on Vista

Hi
I'm trying to sync my ipod touch 4g with my itunes 10 using a Dell XPS with Windows Vista. After the point where the songs begin to copy (around 5 mins to 30 mins into copying) a blue screen error is caused and the computer shuts down automatically. The blue screen error ID is 2057.
I have scanned for viruses and its clean, tested my hardrive and its all ok, and now been to apple and got a replacement ipod and usb, re-installed i tunes 10 BUT its still happening.
i'm not sure what to do next ..any suggestions??
BTW my computer works fine until I try syncing the ipod so it's definitely something related to it.

Just in case anybody is interested I managed to resolve the problem. Not sure if it was a just a co-incidence but after windows had auto-removed itunes 10, I plugged in the ipod and the computer recognised it as a working piece of hardware, although it actually thought it was a camera (not sure if that's normal).
Anyway I re-installed itunes10 but kept the ipod plugged into the usb all the time. When itunes had installed, i began the sync and the files copied far more quickly than in previous attempts. They are all on now and the ipod is working fine and no blue screen errors.
What probably happened is that when windows auto-fixed errors after the last crash(it didn't run an auto-fix after previous crashes), it fixed the error which was crashing itunes10 when syncing. I hope nobody else has this problem and the ipod remains ok.

Iphone 4s error when syncing with iPhoto on Macbook Pro

Hello everyone,
The screen on my wife's iPhone 4s went out so I am trying to sync the pictures to iPhoto on our Macbook Pro. She has 6,000+ pictures on the iPhone but when syncing to the computer iPhoto is able to read them all. The problem is that when I hit the sync button or Import button it only reads about 200 or so photos then gives an error saying there was a problem with one of the pictures on the device so it can't sync at all. The photos are the only thing that is important to us on the device so any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help. Also if anyone can recommend a different way or app or system to get them off using the Macbook Pro since the iPhone 4s screen is out i'm open to suggestions. Thank you again.

Error when syncing contacts - An error has occurred when trying to access a device database record

I started getting this error while syncing. I narrowed it down to the contacts. If I sync just the calendar then it works fine. How do I resolve?

You could add your contacts in one by one (or a few at a time) on whatever you are syncing with (Google, MS, etc.) and try and catch which contact is causing problems when you sync.

"Merging data" error when syncing iPhone 5s Calendar to MacBook Pro Calendar, using Mountain Lion

Since a failed attempt to sync data via iCloud (resulting in duplicate entries in Calendar and Contacts, missing data, and other oddities), whenever I try to sync the Calendars via iTunes, I repeatedly get the error message, "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone <name> because an error occurred while merging data." The Contacts sync fine, and the backup runs smoothly. The only discussions I can find in Apple Support are dated 2009 with older systems (I'm using Mountain Lion 10.8.5, iTunes 11.1.5, iOS 7.1.1, but the problem occurred with iOS 7.0 and possibly 6.0 as well). Repairing permissions had no effect. I can't use the option to copy the Mac Calendar to the iPhone because new data are entered into the iPhone. Would appreciate guidance. I'm trying to avoid iCloud but if I have to go there to fix this, guidance for that would also be welcome.

I have iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4 and iMac with Mavericks 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.2.1.
I also got this error when I tried to sync iPhone with iMac (after a year when Apple disabled local USB cabel sync in Mavericks - thanks Apple for re-enabling it!).
I tried a number of things to no avail. Finally I tried three things - and hurraaa, can sync now! Unfortunatelly I didn't test sync among these three steps - so don't know which one fixed it - up to you to try. My guess is that it was the 3rd step, actually
Step 1: On my iPhone I opened Calendar and tap "Calendars" (top left). I have 7 items on the list (2 email accounts, Calendar, Home, Work, Reminders, Birthdays). Most of the calendar entries were in my Home calendar, only a few were in Work or Birthdays. I moved all of them to Home. I also checked whether there aren't any items without content.
Step 2: On the list of Calendars I had one custom item (Birthday in my local language). This item had only one entry in it. I deleted both the single entry and the custom item as a whole - so I left the default categories only.
Step 3: At the top of the list of Calendars there is an item "All from My Mac". I tapped this and thus enabled all of my calendar categories. Now the sync worked like a charm!
I actually noticed that when I synced, iTunes automatically checked all items under "Sync Calendars - Selected Calendars". Even if I manually deselected all except the "Home" calendar, as soon as I started to sync, iTunes checked all items automatically. This led me to thinking that if I check "All from My Mac" item in my iPhone it might work.
Good luck with your sync issue, hope you'll solve it.

"Unknown Error" When Syncing Photos

Okay, so I have a 60 GB fifth generation iPod. I can get music, videos, everything but photos to sync just fine. Originally I tried to sync the photos from a 450 MHz. iMac G3 running 10.3.9 and iPhoto 4.0.2. I got a "-37" unknown error when trying to sync the photos (the music worked just fine, albeit slowly). Technically this setup is supported, although not recommended. So then I sent the photo library over to my October 2005 Powerbook G4, running 10.4.7 and iPhoto 5.0.4. The upgrading of the photo library went smoothly, but the iPod still would not sync the photos, this time giving a "-50" unknown error.
I have restarted the computers and iPod, used every possible USB port, etc. I restored the iPod on the iMac and that didn't work. I have not restored it from the Powerbook, as the music library on the iMac is large and it takes a long time to move it over USB 1.whatever it is. If anybody thinks this will solve it I will try though...
So, is the iPod the problem?
Thanks, Zach.

it could possibly be a photo that is causing it... corrupt or wrong format or something...
try only putting the photos on in several stages so that you can find out which one it is...
just a suggestion... i dont know if it will help
