Unknown error (-124) HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd had some troubles with my ipod software so I downloaded itunes again and the ipod worked perfectly, then midways it stopped and said "unknown error (-124)" and now, the computer won't recognize it. It's a 4G black ipod... I don't know if it makes a difference or not... but just in case...

Where were you on iTunes when it did this? Was it while the iPod was syncing?

  • Gets unknown error -124 when syncing the iPod

    I get unknown error -124 when syncing my 80 gb iPod. I have had files which I could not copy to the iPod, so I removed them. So it's not that. And I have restored it back to its original settings before syncing now.
    Any tips on how to resolve this?
    Thanks!

    i am getting the same problem and the people at best buy could not even help me they it was my problem. and i bought two new hard drives and it still does it.

  • Unknown Error -124.

    Hello,
    I've been experiencing problems after restoring my Ipod after getting sad Ipod and the folder with the exclamation mark.
    I've got a 40Gb 4th Generation Ipod and was using Itunes 4.9 (just upgraded to the latest version to see if that helps).
    After updating some songs I get error messages saying 'Error copying to Steven's Ipod. Unknown Error -124'.
    Sorry I don't have the full error message but after updating Itunes I can't recreate it, but everytime it's occurred it's the same error number.
    I've tried with both Firewire and USB ports and got the same error message.
    Any ideas?
    Any feedback is really appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Steven

    I had a similar error with my 30GB Video Ipod when attempting to download pictures. I discovered that having Outlook open as well as having the Ipod settings to update my Outlook calendar caused the error. Once I shut down Outlook, and removed the check mark on update Outlook Calendar (on the Ipod preference settings), the pictures downloaded without a problem.

  • My ipad2 won't accept my apple password for new app install. I've tried several time and get a pop up "unknown error". Help?

    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.

    Please tell us what kind of computer you have, what operating system and what version of iTunes. Not just "the latest version of iTunes", the exact version number.

    Unless as part of a backup, or stored somewhere else, they are gone.
    Your son needs his own Apple ID for iCloud, FaceTime & iMessage. He can continue to use yours for iTunes content, but for everything else, he needs his own.
    When you did what you did, as far as iCloud knows, this is the same person with multiple devices, and that's they way things are supposed to work: keep everything in sync.

  • Unknown Error -48 HELP ME i can't save my iTunes library

    whenever i try to transfer music to my iTunes Library, it transfers fine, and i can listen to it for then. However once i close iTunes, then open it back up, none of my music is there anymore, and i get an error message that says "the iTunes music library file could not be saved. an Unknown error occurred (-48). i have no idea how to get my music files to save, i even have all the music in the default my music folder that it says in the advanced options in iTunes, so please help me, i can't figure this out.

    Hello ArtyJP,
    You can give this a shot to correct the permissions on your computer. I know you have Windows 8, the Windows 7 will still get you in the right place.

  • ITunes cant open-unknown error (-50) HELP

    What happens if you try to start Quicktime? iTunes cannot work if QUicktime doesn't.
    If QUicktime does not launch go to your control panel and try to start QUicktime preferences. Give the text of any error message in full.
    Have installed any of the following:
    ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter
    They are bad news for Quicktime.
    If you Quicktime works normally, work through the following troubleshooting article for iTunes.

  • ITunes showing unknown error 1418 - Help!!

    Ok, so I got my new 5th Generation iPod for my birthday to replace my iPod mini. I put all my old music onto it and listened to it today with no problems.
    However, I'd bought 2 albums from iTunes last night and was annoyed to find that they had not synched onto the iPod.
    When I got home I plugged my iPod in and it started saying "do not disconnect" straight away...when it was finished I dragged one of the albums I'd bought so that it would synch onto the iPod - this is where the problems started:
    1. It started saying that a music file on the iPod itself was corrupted and unreadable.
    2. I ejected the iPod and tried again, and again...it would always show "do not disconnect" and was untouchable in iTunes. It would still work fine when not plugged in though.
    3. When I last plugged it in iTunes claimed to not be running properly and had to be shut down. I also restarted the whole computer.
    4. I have now decided to restore the iPod to its factory settings to remedy the corrupted file situation but when the restore process is taking place a message comes up saying that the iPod cannot be restored due to an unknown error 1418.
    5. My iPod now says "do not disconnect" in an MSDOS-style screen (it's all gone black and white and fonts are smaller than usual) when it is connected and when I disconnect it it just says that it must be restored and plugged in...so it's all a viscious circle.
    I'm sorry this has been so long but I wanted to include as much info as possible so that someone might help??!
    PC   Windows XP   iTunes 7.0.2.16

    Having read another post with a similar issue I'm going to try to disconnect my iPod while the restore bar shows up on the screen, then reconnect it...
    Does anyone have any other suggestions or tips/hints to try?
    I already have tried what the site said to do re. error 1418 but nothing worked and am now getting desperate!

  • Random selections of mp4 videos won't sync, convert for iPhone option in iTunes comes up with unknown error 2002, help please!

    I've been having massive issues copying mp4 video files onto my iPhone 4 from my windows 7 (64 bit) pc.
    I converted a large number of avi files into mp4 using aiseesoft movie converter and most of them work just fine.
    However about a quarter of the files with no Obvious difference in size and converted the same way will not sync.
    Instead a message appears saying these cannot be played on the iPhone.
    Also when then trying to use the iTunes convert for iPhone function It fails for unknown error 2002.
    Any help on why this is happening and how to stop it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    When the videos are in the Movie library, try using the Create IPod and iPhone Version in the Afvanced tab of iTunes.

  • Quicktime Unknown Error -50 - Help

    I keep getting this error message when I try to open any Quicktime files on my hard drive or any HD content like movie trailers and such.

    Does anyone know what this means?
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Quicktime 3 times but I still get the same error message.
    Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

    I can't speak to anyone else's problem- but mine was plainly working too long and being Senor El Estupido. Running Compressor out of FCP via batch monitor. QT 7.45, MacBook Pro, OSX 10.5.2 error -50! I must tel the king!
    After doing several freaked out things (re-installing QT, destroying plists, permissions repair, restarts, PRAM reset, etc.) I realized I had no in->out in the FCP timeline. No, really. Embarassing, and now that the queue is running I am goin to get some adult beverages and SLEEP.
