Changing iPod drive letter fixes "could not mount ipod"

So the problem I was having is that although my Windows XP SP2 machine could see my iPod nano as a drive, whenever I tried to use iPod Updater or iTunes, they could not connect/recognize the device. iTunes would simply not see that I had the device, while the updater would freeze for a good 5 - 10 minutes before giving me the "could not mount ipod" error. I tried everything, selective startup, windows update, made sure that I did indeed have USB 2.0 hardware, made sure that when I connected the ipod that Windows Device Manager said it was a "Standard ENHANCED USB Hub," restarted ipodservice, formatted ipod using windows, and probably a few other things. Still, although Windows could see the ipod just fine, apple's software just could not. I could even copy files to and from the device just fine! If only we didn't need iTunes to copy music. :P
Well, one thing I suspected it could be is that with my computer, my primary hard drive (and I only have one) is mysteriously drive letter "D" while when I plugged in my iPod it took on the holy "C" drive letter. Could this be a problem? Possibly, but not likely I thought. So I tried some 3rd party software which emulated the ipod software and I got an error message. First that it appeared my ipod was not formatted (which it was) and second that it "could not create :\ipod_control". First thing I thought was, where is the drive letter? The software isn't even looking for the ipod in C:\, it's looking nowhere! So what I did it changed the ipod's drive letter from C to something else and viola, it worked.
So it seems the iPod may not like it when it is named C, or there was some conflict with the iPod using the C drive letter since, I'll admit, I used to have two hard drives and the other one used to be C. Could also be a bug, who knows.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Ah, the Drive Letter C problem again.
The iPod software and iTunes will not recognize the iPod if it is assigned to drive C. Changing the drive letter to a higher one not used by other drives will solve the problem.

After 2.0 Update "iTunes could not connect iPod error (0xE8000001)?

I've downloaded the 2.0 update for my iTouch... after the installer had finished its work it alerted me that the iTouch was rebooting and would appear in iTunes. However, I got this error message instead:
"iTunes could not connect iPod unknown error occured (0xE8000001)". I'm not sure if I should disconnect the USB or not.. or what is going on. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Sweet! The power of the collective on the web...
Jeff - try this, worked great -
unfortunately i lost all my info on my touch when doing this, but I can dedicate some time tonight to resetting my wallpaper, my mail settings, etc.
i think the 'DFU' in these instructions means device firmware upgrade...found this on another forum where people complaining of same problem...
1. Hold both the home and power buttons until the device turns off
2. EXACTLY one second after the iPod turns off, release the sleep/wake button, holding the home button still ( the apple logo SHOULD NOT BE ON ).
3. In about 20 seconds, you will see your iPod appear in iTunes, but the screen on your iPod will still be off. You are now in DFU mode.
4. RELEASE the home button as soon as your iPod appears iTunes. If you fail to do so, your iPod will simply go back into recovery mode.
yo Apple - please roll out some info on this 'known issue'; While $9.95 isn't a budget-breaker, if you have to figure out how to make that $9.95 work on your Apple device like it appears some of us are, it speaks to posting something in Support about it - thanks!

"The iPod ... could not be updated because it could not be found" on Mac?

I just updated to the latest version of QuickTime and was notified that there was a new iPod update but when I try to update it I get the message:
"The iPod "My Name's iPod" could not be updated because it could not be found."
I tried to remove the iPod Software Update folder, but that didn't work.
I also tried to restore the iPod too, but I got the same error message??
I see documents for Windows on this error message about the firmware being corrup bug not for Macs.
What's going on??

Well, back again... a new iTunes and QuickTime update via Software Update and it got my iTunes in the same state again after the web installation. DOH! I reinstalled both QT and iTunes again to fix the issue again. I can't be the only one that this is happening to so just reiterate the fix works but that I'm beginning not to trust the Software Update versions of the installers for QT and iTunes. There IS a difference and it's a buggy result of not being able to find the iPod afterward. Next time I get the prompt to update I'm going to refuse and then download it from the website.

B-rock, thanks for posting the above. I actually have the same issue, running Windows XP and I don't have that backup location, \Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\. When I go to Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .
I have the latest update, 5.0.1 and I have the iPod Touch 3rd gen.
I have tried removing itunes and all that is associated with it then reinstalling and keep getting the same message. I've reset my ipod thinking that would help but still, no backup.
In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.
What am I doing wrong, can you help?
Thank you!

Upgrade to Yosemite, iPhoto won't open and NTFS-3G could not mount error with new external HD

Help!
I just did a software update to get OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro.
Now iPhoto won't open and I get this error:
"Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable....Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup."
So I do this and try to repair the database as suggested and I get another error:
"iPhoto will open as soon as the iPhoto library is available. Time Machine might be backing it up."
But it's not - no external hard drive is connected.
I'm terrified I can't get access to my photos (and I admit I haven't backed up with Time Machine for over a year - my mistake that I won't make again).
So I bought a brand new external hard drive (seagate for mac and pc, 2TB) so I could save only my photos to the hard drive (because I googled and read you can manually save your photos to disk by dragging and dropping the photo library onto the external hard drive).
But I can't even get the hard drive to work....I get this error
"NTFS-3G could not mount /dev/disk2s1
at /Volumes/Seagate Backup Plus Drive because the following problem occurred:
/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) link error; check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).
the MacFUSE file system is not available (71)"
I google the issue again and it says to uninstall NTFS-3G but I actually think I just deleted it a long ago without uninstalling it properly?? I don't know....
(a) how do i fix iphoto
(b) how do i get external hard drives to work with this OS (I've read lots of posts and don't really understand the advice)
(c) how do i get all my photos onto the hard drive safely so I can import them onto a PC
Any assistance would be magic for this little lady!

(c) how do i get all my photos onto the hard drive safely so I can import them onto a PC
First see if you can reformat the EHD to MS-DOS FAT with Disk Utility. If you can
open iPhoto and select all of the Events in the Events mode. Use the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option and export to the EHD with these settings:
Select the destination for the export to be the EHD or a folder on the EHD. This process will create a folder for each Event in your library with the same name as the Event and contain the original image files. The EHD will be useable by a PC and the photos will be available also.

ITunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined error message

I've been getting the "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined" error message for a while. I have tried restoring my iPod but as soon as I try to sync it again (even with nothing changing in iTunes or on the iPod) I get the same error message. Whenever I want to add music to my iPod I have to delete everything and then wait hours for it to restore which is ridiculous. Anyone have any other suggestions for fixing this problem?
I'm using a 3rd generation iPod touch with 4.2.1 software and iTunes 10.5.3.3

The fact that there is so many discussions with no clear answer is the problem.
I went back and looked through all the different suggestions and and tried them all to make sure I didn't miss anything. What finally worked for me was making sure all apps were updated on the iPod and making sure all apps were updates in iTunes (under the Library>Apps tab NOT under devices) and then syncing.

Even after resets get "The backup disk image "/Volumes/FreeAgent GoFlex Drive/MacBeth (2) 1.sparsebundle" could not be created (error 22)."

HELP! "The backup disk image “/Volumes/FreeAgent GoFlex Drive/MacBeth (2) 1.sparsebundle” could not be created (error 22)."
TC estimates over 750GB for full backup.
Late 2010 MBA is connected wirelessly to
802.11n (1st gen) TC that is connected via ethernet hub built into house to motorola router using charter.com for internet.
I have had same problem for over 150 days and multiple reboots, restarts in proper order, firmware updates, unplugs with 5min plus gaps, bypassing the tc and using external 500gb WD mybook via usb to time capsule, replacement of the WD mybook to new 2TB Free Agent GoFlex drive, etc, etc, etc! Note: I originally named my MBA hard drive MacBeth, but at some point months ago, it said backup already existed and system automatically created MacBeth (2), worked for a while, then stopped again, despite trying nearly daily.
I gave up and started using Carbon Copy Clone daily for just the 128gb on internal SSD of my late 2011 11" MacBook Air, but need to get past these time capsule errors to back up the external disk! Due to lack of space in MBA, I had long ago transferred both itunes and iphoto and all imovie/fcpx files to a 1tb external disk (WD Passport) that I keep in my bag with MBA. It is partitioned with 150gb for cloning the MBA, and over 750gb for media/itunes/iphoto/etc.
Also, I have endured months of "your hard drive is full" messages and system lockups, applying the solution given to me by genious bar (deleting all aol.com outboxes/recovered messages/spam/trash under library/mail/V2/Mailboxes folders, empty trash, restart....watch recovered hard drive space mysteriously shrink next couple days to zero.....repeat)
Due to lack of space, I had not been able to do javascript and other system updates. Yesterday, I noticed even safari bookmark bar had mysteriously emptied (not disappeared, I can hide and show the space where the bar used to be - it is just blank area with no data except for eyelass-book-topsites icons), so I transferred a few large quicktime movie files recorded with isight camera to the external disk, and freed up 20 gbs for the first time!
This got my hopes up yesterday because after I completed all system/software updates, suddenly the bookmark bar showed up and I was able to start the time capsule backup! It took overnight preparing for backup, but finally started and progressed to 12gb of the 100gb+ needed (i guess the update where it left off months ago for the estimated 750gb for the full backup?), then I put system to sleep and took it with me (thus leaving the wireless time capsule network as I do daily fully expecting it to continue when I returned home in the evening.) But alas, upon return, back to the "Time Machine could not complete backup, The backup disk image ".....sparsebundle" could not be created (error 22)" Ugh! More reboots, unplugs, 5min gaps....still Ugh!
So the problem continues...please help! Here are my settings:
About this mac:
Mac OS X V. 10.7.5
processor 1.6 ghz intel core 2 duo, memory 4 4g 1067 MHz DDR3
software up to date!
Airport Utility:
V 6.2 (620.33)
both internet globe and TC show green dots in graphic, however internet occasionally shows yellow then goes to green, but still gets error 22. Suddenly TC showed explanation mark and says lost connection and asked if I wanted to 'forget', gave same errors, then mysteriously went back to green, but still got error 22!.
Internet:
connection: connected, displays router address, 2 dns server, and domain name: charter.com
Time Capsule:
shows network, ip address, serial number, version 7.6.3, status: (green dot) Setup over WAN,
wireless clients: phones, macbooks (including this MBA), printers, wii
If you need other settings to help me, just ask! I have read a few of the other solutions in forums, but trying not to erase disks, especially since it worked for a minute yesterday!

To step sideways.. why not just use CCC to backup the 750GB of the hard disk to the TC.
You need to understand this is going to be a super slow process and each time you stop it.. it is going to give issues. CCC will at least do a more reliable job of it than TM.
I would also say.. this is going to be tough without ethernet. You need to understand the backup speed over wireless can be 10GB per hour.. that makes 75hrs to backup the disk. The air needs to run non-stop doing that.. without you touching it.
I would get another external drive.. plug that into the MBA and if you really want to use TM.. make a backup one to the other.. but CCC will again do a better job and work faster. It will be much faster than over wireless.
I am trying to think of ways around the issue of just speed.. but plainly you have lots of other issues.. being the simple unreliablity of the TM to identify the TC.
If you want to make this work.. give yourself a weekend.
Load 5.6 utility into the MBA..
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Take the TC back to 7.5.2 firmware. It is a really old version and latest firmware does it no good at all.
Wipe its hard disk using erase and start over.. give it new names for everything.
So call it TC
Set the wireless to 5ghz and name it TC5ghz
Use WPA2 Personal security. Use a 10 character passkey non dictionary.
At 5ghz you should get 2x the speed as at 2.4ghz but the air will need to be right next to the TC..
(alternatively buy the USB to ethernet cord apple have available.. it is $30 in the apple store and do it over pseudoethernet. http://store.apple.com/au/product/MC704ZM/A/apple-usb-ethernet-adapter That is the wrong store but you get the idea. )
WIth a fully clean system.. now do a full reset of TM.
See A4 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Direct the TM to back to the TC.. and make sure the external hard disk is not excluded.
Of course the TC has to be 1TB version to fit that much data.. goes without saying right.
Even over pseudo - ethernet this will take many hours.. and you basically have to leave it to work.. do not touch it.. make sure the MBA cannot sleep though.. turn off sleep.. beforehand.

The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

Dear Lawrence Finch:
If you're still around I hope you see this message, as you're the FIRST person (after reading every link, thread, other sites, apple support articles, etc.) to mention JB may be causing this iTunes popup window to REPEATEDLY occur:
"The iPhone software update server could not be contacted."
No, I did not hack anything (are you kidding? Grannies don't hack!), but I unknowingly bought a 3Gs iOS 3.1 from ebay that was not advertised as JB. Since it is like brand new, I was going to keep it (because my old backup is iOS 3.1.2) & was trying to simply restore & update, which (I thought) would remove the JB (that's what everybody says at forums, etc).
Instead, after "erasing all settings/content" (inside phone's Settings to get the prior person's name out of there), it is now stuck in White Apple Mode.
Put it in DFU/Recovery Mode & connect to iTunes but that stupid above message keeps appearing & I have already read/tried EVERYTHING to get rid of that message, starting with:
1. OLD phones (3Gs) with OLD iOS 3.1+ should work FINE with OLD Mac (iBook) with OLD OSX (Tiger 10.4.11) with OLD iTunes (9.2.1[5]). So that can't be the problem.
Here's all the other things apple & others say to check which I already checked:
2. USB ports are FINE, both work FINE, so that's not the problem.
3. No "extra USB devices" are connected, ONLY a mouse, & then the phone (yes, I tried it w/o the mouse connected but that didn't help).
4. No "usb hubs."
5. Latest iTunes for this OSX has already been DL'd (iTunes 9.2.1[5]). If you know of a newer one for this OSX, please advise.
6. No antivirus software.
7. No security software.
8. No routers; only 1 comcast modem, period. Wired Ethernet.
9. No wifi gadgets, no wifi at all.
10. No firewalls, except what is on iBook in the SHARING/System-Prefs. section. It's turned OFF.
11. Did the hosts/terminal thing sudo nano whatever it was. There were only 3 lines, NO gs.apple.com:
xxxxx local host
xxxxx broadcast host
xxxx local host
Oh, & btw, ATT officially unlocked this phone (after I filled out their online forms) but I can't finish the process via iTunes to get their Confirmation that "Device is Now Unlocked," so I can use T-Mo.
So that's it. If you have any other ideas of what to do from here, since from your comment, maybe it's the stupid JB on this phone that is causing the problem (???), please advise.
Many thanks!

Premier 9.0 Update failed. Could not apply the updates

I just did a reinstallation of Premier and made an update via Adobe update. I get this error. Update failed. Could not apply the updates. The error log can contain informtion to help you identify the problem. Then try to update again. Contact Customer Support if the problem persists.
The error log
Update Software for Premiere Elements 9.0.1
An error occurred while downloading this update. Cancel and try again later. Error: U43M1D207
I have tried several times but i can't solve it.
Does anyone know any tricks to love this

This question has been asked several times recently.
Do not bother with the issues of Premiere Elements 9.0 Help Menu/Update. Waste of energy. These updates involve only 9.0.1 and Camera Raw up to no more than 6.5. There is no more to be gotten after that.
The remedy is quick and easy.
Download and install the 9.0.1 Update from Adobe. You can do the download and install with Premiere Elements 9 closed.
If Windows
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Premiere Elements 9.0.1 update
If Mac
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4930
If you need Camera Raw 6.5 Windows (See instructions for manual install)
Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.5 update
If you need Camera Raw 6.5 Mac (See instructions for manual install)
Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.5 update for Elements 9
Please let us know if that worked for you. Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Com.adobe.ProcessingException: Requested update ZCI-003 could not be found.

Hi
Please assist with the following ADS call error as per webdynpro application dump for an adobe interactive form.
The dump happens on drop downs and buttons on the form. The ADS is on Netweaver 7.01 EHP1. The layout on the form is ZCI but the script has not been manually inserted. The form works perfectly on the Development and QA environments but dumps in production with the error below.
WebDynpro Exception: ADS call failed ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException:

Hi Michael,
Seems the ADS is working fine for non-interactive forms but the problem persists for interactive forms only.
As per my understanding a separate license or credential file for Interactive forms is required to be configured at ADS level by your basis team.
Check report: FP_TEST_00 and FP_TEST_IA_01.
Report FP_TEST_IA_01 should be working fine if you want to run ADS to generate interactive forms.
Please check with your basis team if credential is the issue.
