Strange error message when starting ITunes, ITunes doesn't recognise devices for wifi sync

I have other wifi problems with my IMac running Mountain Lion but this is the most annoying. When I start ITunes it doesn't recognise that I have my IPhone 5 and my IPad 2 sitting connected to the same wifi network and waiting to sync.
In the Console I get this error exactly when ITunes starts up:

Google search has explained to me that this is related to Bonjour but nothing further. I have done the 'usual' - booted in safe mode, repaired permissions, updated software, reinstalled Mountain Lion via Disc Recovery, restarted my modem etc.
Before I just wipe the hard drive and start again from scratch, maybe there's something obvious I'm not doing? Every other device in the house (2 x Iphones, 2 x Ipads, 1 Apple TV, 2 wifi radios and 1 other IMac desktop) have no problems with the wifi network.

I am having similar issue.  Getting these same 24 error messages everytime I start iTunes. Sharing is already off.

  • Strange error message when starting listener at boot time

    Hi I have SuSE 10 server and Oracle 10.2.0
    I followed the instruction on my how configure /etc/init.d/dbora to start
    the db instance and the listener at boot time
    The db instance starts fine;however, the listener doesnt start and gives the following strange message
    "cannot start using /ade/vikrkuma_new/oracle/bin/tnslnr"
    Does anyone has seen this and is there a workaround?
    It looks like to me the listener tries to locate the listener.ora but it fails
    I tried to force it by setting TNS_ADMIN in my /etc/init.d/dbora script but it still doesnt pick it up
    any clue?

    Hi,
    Check your oracle bin varible and oracle home varible. If possible can you force this?

  • Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

    Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

    Not the iPad - your computer must be running iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. It has nothing to do with iTunes on the iPad.
    You can download iTunes for your computer here.

  • Error message when starting MaxDB instance

    Hi gurus,
    I'm a complete newbye searching the forums in order to decrypt what is inconsistent to me (I'm acting as a substitute for a real dba): a sapdb refusing any more connection due to an 'user space exhausted' issue.
    I do not even know if/where some admin tool is/isn't installed - eventually, what to look for - onto the running demianapachetomcat framework. Actually, all I have been provided was: 1. call 'Henplus' (done); 2. connect this way (jdbc:sapdb://localhost/database&options) and 3. select, upgrade, delete what needed. Problem arises on point (2): connection resufed 'user space exhausted'.
    My question is: this issue seems so similar to mine, how can one eventually check/modify this '/sapdb directory space'?
    Thanks in advance for any (much appreciated) hint, and be patient about my English and newbyeness (?).

  • Getting error message when starting Photoshop CS3

    I am getting the following error message when starting CS3:
    "This application has failed to start because CML4.dll was not found."
    The window title is, "Photoshop.exe - Unable to Locate Component"
    Of course, the only button to push is the "OK" button (which should probably read - Something's f-d up. Press here to continue.) After pressing the OK button, CS3 starts and works without issue - so far.  I guess I haven't actually used the part of the program that uses CML4.dll or just don't see any difference with or without it.
    How can I resolve this issue - without reinstalling PSCS3? and why does it happen in the first place?

    Nikon Scanning Software has CML4.dll as part of its package.  I assume that the Nikon software did not install/uninstall properly and is causing the error.  I have not gone back to do Nikon scans within Photoshop so I do not know if it affects performance. McAfee does not flag it as a virus, and other websites I referred to indicated no viral activity associated with the file.

    Not sure that this is important but I want to mention this for the sake of completeness:
    - the maps did work once
    - when I started them the next day and I was at a different location it still showed the location of the previous evening abnd did not recognize where the phone was
    - after some time I could not start the the maps app.
    Any help greatly appreciated!

  • I get an error message when starting itunes

    Hi, i'v ehad this problem for a while .. i'm not a computer expert but i do my best. I get an error message when clicking to start iTunes ... can someone help me ! i don't want to lose my songs !

    top fixes are
    - turning off security software before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    In your case, if iTunes was working OK for a while and then mysteriously stopped, youve got a virus, I bet. Do the ewido malware scan.

  • "Error -42032" message when starting up iTunes 10.2

    Immediately after I upgraded my 15" MacBook Pro to iTunes 10.2 a couple of days ago I began getting this error message whenever I started up the program. After dismissing the error message iTunes seems to work fine. It's more of a nuisance than a major problem, but I'd like to resolve it if I can. Any ideas out there?
    Regards, Jim
    PS - the 10.2 upgrade works fine on my 24" iMac C2 Duo.

    Looks like I found the answer to my question.
    A colleague on the DealMac forum pointed me to an article at Ars Technica (http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=83766) which suggested that the problem lay in the invisible folder /users/shared/sc info. After making invisible files/folders visible using TinkerTool, I copied this folder to a work file on my desktop, trashed the originals, and then put the copy back. Voila! No more error -42032 message when starting iTunes!
