When attempting to synch my IPhone 3Gs I now get a sign "Attempting to copy to Disk failed. The required disk cannot be found."
This is after synching a new Iphone 4s and having received some help from Apple Support who assisted with some setting
changes. Unfortunately this was over a protracted period of time and I cannot recall what was changed. Apparently my 3Gs is out of
its warranty and so they cannot help me unless I pay £25....
Can anyone help??

Hi. I am having the same problem.
I have updated iPhone software and carrier settings, OSX Lion on the comp and in step 4 of 4 during photo sync about half way through, the error message comes up and now my pics are gone from the phone. I did empty the cache and the problem still persisted. I changed cables, I restored the phone and synced from the back up and even restored and created a new phone identity, still no love.
I am puzzeled, any suggestions?

Just in case the component being referenced is not part of iTunes but is rather part of one of the other related programs, it might be worth trying a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related componentry, as per the following troubleshooting document:

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

This is getting frustrating. Every example of my problem has the same reply:

I have NO photos on my Ipod Nano. I select "Photos" and the Ipod goes to a blank screen with the msg "No Photos" at the bottom. There must be some other file missing. Itunes won't connect to the Ipod, I keep getting the same error over and over. It would be nice if it told me what file is missing.

This is a known problem with Windows 7 Enterprise using certain Group Policy settings. Solution for me was to use another machine running Windows 7 Ultimate.

"iPhone cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found." HELP!!

This is by far the worst problem I have ever had with the iPhone and I'm about to just give up and get a newer, better smart phone. I have an iPhone 3G and Windows 7 OS. I have updated all my software and cannot sync. I seem to be able to sync all my applications just fine as long as I am not selecting to sync my music. When I try to do that I get an error message that says: "iPhone cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found." All of my applications cease to work and I get like 1000 error screens that want to inform me of the error and they continue popping up as I close them...one after the other. I selected to convert the files to 128 kbps AAC as well in order to save space. Even if I do not select this option I get that error. I also get a number of other errors that are just frustrating, but this error is the most consistent. I am able to sync my ringtones. I get the feeling that Microsoft and Apple are making their software incompatible for a reason and I just don't appreciate it. I have tried the rememdies suggested on this message board relating to the same error message and nobody seems to know anything. Restores are useless and frustrating. Factory settings work the first time but every sync after that just fouls up my whole iPhone all over again. The same problem is occuring with my wife's iPhone as well. If I cannot get help here or they do not come up with a solution soon I will never buy another Apple product again. I'm not sure if it's an Apple or Microsoft issue, but whatever the case...it ***** BAD and needs to get fixed. I have talked to several people experiencing the same problems and they are pretty ticked off as well. It's just ridiculous.

My itunes app was working fine then all of a sudden I'm getting an error - The Itunes application could not be opened. The required folder cannot be found. But it doesn't tell me what folder.

I am using Windows Vista. My itunes launched fine until now. Now I get an error - "The Itunes application could not be opened. The required folder cannot be found". I have no idea what file it is looking for. Has anyone seen this error?
I have also tried to uninstall the package and I get the error Could not access network location %APPDATA%\. And it won't uninstall. I don't know why it's complaining in both cases.
Itunes was working 3 weeks ago with no problem.
HELP!!!

hey did u ever get you itunes fixed?

The IPhone " 3 drea 3" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found

i updated the software on my iphone last night to the 2.0 and when i tried to sync my phone to put my songs back on it i got this message "The IPhone "<3 drea <3" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found" whats wrong with is and how do i fix it ??

Just another finding on my part ... I was able to sync my "last imports" from iPhoto, which were a bunch of JPG files that were scans of old family photos. As soon as I tried to sync other folders from the library, that's when I was notified with the error. Do you think this might be a complication with RAW images? I also thought about file names ... most of the photos have the sequential DSCNxxxx title.
