When Isync my iPhone with my mac desktop I get this error message, "iPhone cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found". Can anyone help?

When I connect my iPhone (ios 4.3.3) to my Desktop Mac I get an error message. "iPhone cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found." This happened while I was downloading photos from iPhoto.

Close "iPhoto" if it is open. Open the "Pictures" folder and right-click on "iPhoto Library." Select "Show Package Contents." Right-click the "iPod Photo Cache" folder, select "Move to Trash" and sync your iPhone. The error message should no longer appear.
if that doesn't work,
uninstall itunes and download the lastest version

IPhone cannot be synced The required file cannot be found

could you help my iphone cannot syncing it showing a message "The iphone .......... cannot be synced, The required file cannot be found". I trying to reinstall a itune, update my iphone it still showing a message.

Hey Rawins,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines the error message you are receiving and steps to a potential resolution:
iTunes: Unable to sync photos
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3697
- This error appears: "The iPhone/iPod touch '[device name]' cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found."
If you encounter any of the above issues or another issue while syncing photos, try the following:
1. Ensure that you are syncing the device with the computer with which you normally sync photos.
2. Within iTunes, select the device, then select the Photos pane and turn off Photo syncing.
3. Sync your device.
Important: This will remove all synced photos from your device.
4. Disconnect your device and update to the latest version of iTunes.
5. Remove your iPod photo cache.
6. Connect your device to iTunes.
7. Select the device, then select the Photos pane and turn on Photo syncing.
8. Sync your device.
If you still see an alert that there is not enough space to sync your entire photo library, selectively add photo albums until the device is full.
Thanks,
Matt M.

iTunes cannot convert protected WMA tracks. There may also be problems if it can't get full access permissions. What exactly are you trying to do when the error occurs?

When i connect my ipod shuffle to itunes i get an error message the ipod cannot be synced, the required disk cannot be found anyone have this happen?

When i connect my ipod shuffle to itunes i get an error message the ipod cannot be synced, the required disk cannot be found anyone have this happen? How do i get past it?

I seem to recall that this may be cause by overloading the USB bus (lack of power to go around). Shut down your computer. Reset the iPod shuffle using this procedure.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
Disconnect ALL peripheral USB devices, including keyboard and mouse. Power up the computer. If you need your mouse, connect it and launch iTunes. Connect the iPod shuffle to a direct USB port and try the sync again. See if there is any difference.

I cannot download updates to Photoshop Elements 9. I get an error message that my serial number is not recognized or eligible. Can you help with this?

Hi,
Which operating system are you running on?
What updates are you trying to download?
The last update was 9.0.3 - check by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Photoshop Elements
The last supported Camera raw is ACR 6.5 - check by loading the editor and going to Help -> About Plug-ins -> Camera Raw
Do you have a reason to update?

Everytime I try to restore my iPhone I get half way through it then it gives me a -20 system error message and then tells me the back ip is corrupt. Can someone help?

I am trying to update my iphone and once it gets to the restoring process I get " An error occurred while restoring this iPhone (-20)". Once I hit ok I get "iTunes could not restore the iPhone " " because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored". But about a month ago we updated another iphone we have same model. Can someone tell me what to do or how to fix this?

Are you running modified software on your phone? This error seems to be common if the firmware has been modified and you're trying to restore the phone again.

It's a Java Scrip error window......

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />
