  • Unknown error when trying to copy music from itunes to ipod

    Message appears "copy to the disk IP failed unknown error -53. Any ideas?

    good gracious, Dick. you keep getting hit by exotic error messages. (in these circumstances, a -53 code is reasonably rare.)
    just checking on something. what got you past the "exception" message that you were getting when you were trying to launch itunes? (thinking here that info on that might possibly give us a heads up on what might be happening with your -53.)

  • Unknown error when trying to sync from itunes to ipod

    Does anyone know what the problem is? Everytime I try to sync music onto my 4GB ipod nano, a message pops up saying:
    Attempting to copy to the disk [ipod name] failed. An unknown error occured (-54).
    I can't seem to figure out what is wrong. I restored my ipod and reset my ipod, but I still don't know what is wrong.

    Thanks for you suggestion roaminggnome. I tried typing in 13019 like you said and it gave me a few options to try and fix it but none of them worked (of course). I fiddled around with it for a while some more on my own and some how got it to work again, lol. Thanks again though for offering a solution.

  • TS4526 Unknown error when trying to play video from netflix or HBO go.

    When I try to play a video from Netflix or HBO go it attempts to load and says unknown error please try again later.  I've been trying this for several days.  I logged out then logged back in with no change.  It seems to play the other apps okay.  I've only had the apple tv for a couple months and the software is up to date.

    Had the same issue and found this information.  Just tested and it worked for me. Hopfully helps some else also!
    Answer: Change your DNS setting in the iPhone/iPad Wi-Fi settings.
    That worked for me. My original DNS settings were assigned by my WIFI router a. I removed these and placed in: 208.67.222.222 (Open DNS server IP)
    To make this adjustment go to Wi-Fi, locate your selected Wi-Fi network and click the blue arrow beside it to being up advanced settings, click in the DNS area to change it.

  • Getting an error when trying to download music from Family Sharing

    My husband & I are signed up for family sharing. When I try to download any of the music I get this error, "This device is already associated with an Apple ID. If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you cannot auto-download or download past purchases with a different Apple ID for 90 days."
    What does this mean & how do I correct it?

    Howdy mrscaskin,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you recently setup Family Sharing and are seeing an alert when trying to download a past purchase from the iTunes Store. The article linked below will explain the alert you’re seeing and provide information about using Apple IDs with multiple devices.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it, with a maximum of 5 computers at any time. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days. You can view which devices or computers are currently associated with your Apple ID, remove unused devices or computers, and view how many days remain before the devices or computers can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer:
    Open iTunes.
    Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
    Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
    From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
    Next to each device or computer name, you will be able to see when each device or computer was associated with your Apple ID. You will also be able to track how many days remain before your associated devices or computers can be associated with a different Apple ID.
    I hope this helps.

  • 'Unknown Error' when trying to save files from CS under Leopard

    We recently upgraded to Leopard, and reinstalled our CS apps. Photoshop and InDesign work fine. Illustrator, however gives us an 'An Unknown Error has Occurred' when trying to save any file. After dismissing the alert, a window pops up, informing us that, 'Can't save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file couldn't be found. ID=-43.' This happens when trying to save a new file, or an existing file, when saving with PDF preview is checked, or unchecked. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I deleted preferences on both machines. The Intel seems to be cured. All file formats save, printing, and importing are functioning normally.
    The G5 however is only modestly improved. I can now at least create and save files. Printing also functions. However if I attempt to use the template dialog box or to import (place) a file the dialogs crash the application.
    My suspect is a corrupt font, but until I have time to track down which one it is, I'll have to limp along as is...

  • Error when trying to sync music to my iPod

    I recently bought the new iPod touch 4th gen. At first I didn't realise all my music was on it but now my music folder has been set correctly, I start to sync the music and then it gets about 200 tracks in of 700, an error message came up saying iTunes couldn't sync to the device properly due to an error. Now I have no music on it at all, even though the space indicator says there is 5.1gb of music on there. Any suggestions? I'm running windows vista, iTunes 10 and don't want to take it back to the shop

    The first message says 'attempting to copy to the disk hannahs iPod failed. An error occurred while reading the device' then it says 'the iPod 'hannahs ipod' could not be synced. An error occurred while writing to the device'. That's all it says

  • I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.

    I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.  I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added.  So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them?  It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

     check if you have read & write permissions for your iTunes music (or media) folder. in finder, right-click on it and +get info+. unlock the little padlock (you may have to enter your admin password) and change the permission settings. if permissions settings check out, click on the little gear-shaped icon and +apply to enclosed items+ like so 
     now try consolidating again.

  • Has anyone heard of error 45054 when trying to purchase music from itunes?

    Has anyone run into error 45054 when trying to purchase music from itunes?

    I had this problem just recently.
    I discovered that the problem was located here: ROOT / Users / Shared  -- if you open that and the "adi" folder has a little red minus symbol in its corner, your permissions have somehow been lost. (If you can't see your root directory, open Finder Preferences and, under sidebar, check "Hard disks." That will make your root drive visible.)
    If the "adi" folder has the red minus symbol, right-click the folder and select GET INFO.
    Sharing & Permissions is probably set to "System: Read & Write | wheel: Read Only | everyone: No Access"
    If so, your user account has no permissions, and that means iTunes can't use the folder properly.
    To fix this, first unlock the folder using the padlock icon in the bottom-right corner of "get info." You will have to supply your admin password to do this.
    Then click the little + sign in the bottom left corner to add a user, and select your user ID from the list of choices. Give yourself Read & Write permissions. (Alternatively, you could change the permissions of "everyone" to Read & Write; others have done that, but I was leery of doing it).
    Re-lock the folder when you're done.
    Hopefully that will solve it.

  • Get the following error when trying to sync itunes to Nano itunes could not coppy " Song"  to the ipod because unknown error occurred (-5000).  Any ideas?

    Get the following error when trying to sync itunes to Nano itunes could not coppy " Song"  to the ipod because unknown error occurred (-5000).  Any ideas?

    Try my script FindTracks. Select a few of the missing files to start with then run the script. Choose No at the first prompt so that you can check how it works track by track, then confirm or edit the location of the media folder where your files are. Once you are happy with how it behaves let it process larger numbers of tracks automatically.

    I keep getting an unknown error when trying to connect to the store. I ran diagnostics and it says secure link to itunes store failed. I've tried all suggestions from apple and nothing will work.
    Please Help

    I received this email from Apple and this corrected the problem for me...  I only had to reset the iTunes cache
    1) Open iTunes
    2) At the top menu, click File > Preferences (iTunes > Preferences on a Mac)
    3) In the Preferences menu, click the Advanced tab
    4) In the Advanced menu, you should see a button that says "Reset Cache". Please click this button.
