  • "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

  • Unknown error when syncing iPod

    I've been trying to sync my iPod to iTunes but this error comes up.
    +"Attempting to copy to the disk "LILY'S IPOD" failed. An unknown error occurred (-69)."+
    I've tried restoring and it has restored the iPod just fine, but once I connect it to try and sync it again the above error comes up. I've restarted my computer, I've searched for iPod updates. I was using iTunes version 8.0.0.35 and installed 8.0.1.11 and I still get the error.
    Can anyone help me? Thanks

  • "unknown error" when syncing apps

    I can download from the App Store (most of the time, at least), but every time I download to iTunes and then try to sync to the iPhone, I get an error like this:
    The application "XYZ" was not installed on the iPhone "(iPhone name)" because an unknown error occurred (-4).
    Anyone seen this, or (better yet) know what to do about it?

    I have this same problem with 6 of my apps now. A month or so ago (before the update?) a second sync would clear this up. Now i get it every time I try. Something is definitely broken here.
    A workaround that may worked is to deselect the apps giving you the error (from the Applications tab in iTunes), sync, then re-check them and sync again. This has worked for me in the past.
    I do hope Apple fixes this annoyance though.

  • Error -48 unknown error when syncing Itunes

    can't find any reference to this one....... only occurs in last 24 hours since upgrading to version 7.3.1
    Any ideas where i can download 7.3.0 and go back to it???/

    Have you tried restoring your iPod? Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes

  • 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

  • Sync Setup gives unknown error when creating account

    Getting "unknown error" when trying to setup sync account. i have the latest version of firefox. i cleared the cache. I did a factory reset. none of it worked.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Firefox sync gives me an unknown error when attempting to sync.

    I am trying to sync Firefox 4 between two different windows machines. I set up a sync account on one, and then add the other computer as another device. As many times as I try this, only one computer will sync, and the other give me the error: Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action. I have had no luck resolving this and would love some advice.

    I have the same issue with the nightly and aurora versions. Firefox 11 works fine.

  • Get an error unknown error when trying to access app store

    I get an unknown error when trying to access app store on my iphone 4...I have turned it off and on, updated the software, etc.  I have never been able to sign in.

    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.

  • Firefox sync: unknown error while syncing

    Has anyone gotten firefox sync to work with firefox from [extra]? I can connect but I always get an unknown error when trying to actually sync. When running in a terminal no output is given.
    Any advice?

    about:sync-log

(current workaround is to store locally and transfer to the cluster via Finder)

    That error can happen for many reasons...one of the reasons that I occassionaly get it is because I try exporting a movie to an external drive that has been formated in the old FAT32 instead of the NTSF standard.  FAT32 only allows for file sizes up to 2 gigs.  And as soon as it reaches that...I would get that error.  I don't know if that is why you are getting that error...but it would be easy to check.  1) are you generating a file that is over 2 gigs?  2) is your drive that you are exporting to FAT 32 (just right click the drive in My Computer and select "properties" then just look for what it says next to "file system".
