When syncing my iPod photo it transfers 2 songs then gives error message ' cannot read/write disk' what wrong?

Can someone tell me whats going wrong when I manually sync my iPod with computer only 2 songs transfer to my iPod then I get error message ' unable to read/write disk ' the 2 songs are transferred to iPod and I have to keep starting the process over again, what can I do?

First, try shutting down (powering off) your computer and resetting the iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
Start up the computer, and connect the iPod to a direct USB port on the computer, if you have been using a USB hub. If there are other USB devices (other than standard keyboard/mouse) connected, you may want to disconnect them, as a test.
If that does not help, or you already did that, it is possible that the iPod's hard drive has become faulty. It is also possible that the hard drive is OK, but there is data corruption that is making the iPod's storage unreliable.
If the problem is not resolved, you should probably do a Restore on the iPod in iTunes. The Restore button is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the iPod, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings. If the cause is data corruption, the Restore (erasing the storage) should fix the problem. However, if the cause is a hardware fault on the hard drive, it will not help; the Restore may not complete successfully, which will leave your iPod inoperable.

- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.

- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

TS2830 Sync for IPod Touch quit working and I get error messages "a session could not be started" and "a connection could not be established" although the IPod appears in ITunes.

This is a new problem for an IPod Touch I have had for a year. The IPod is hooked up by cable and appears in ITunes. I can examine all the content on the IPOD and I can click "sync". It goes through to Step 7 and then the error messages occur. First "a session could not be started with the IPod" and when that dialogue box is closed, the message "a connection could not be established to the IPod."

Itunes fails to recognize my phone and wants me to load as 'new phone' each time I hook up. I have disabled firewalls and it will recognize one out of five times. It also attempts to sync but just runs forever, then gives error message 0xE8004006

I'm getting error -69 when syncing my ipod and all my songs aren't syncing onto my ipod?

I recently experienced errors 1602 and followed these (http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/general-errors/how-to-fix-itunes-error-1601 -or-1602-when-restoring-an-iphone-ipod/) steps to fix it. After restoring my ipod, I tried syncing and only the songs I purchased on my ipod synced(except for 1 song for some reason). Syncing is when error -69 tells me I cannot sync my other songs onto my ipod. Any help with fixing this problem is appreciated.

Ipod Syncs 111 songs then shows error saying failed to copy disk creg...?

as i sed ... my new ipod nano ( 8GB ) gets to 111 songs sync'ed onto my ipod, and they play fine as i cheked but as soon as i trys to sync the 112 song it trys syncing for about 2-3 mins then ends syncing and shows this message " itunes has failed to copy to disk CREG. " this has never happened on my 1st gen nano.
I tried restoring, that didnt work. so i fort maybe a error with the songs file, so i deleted it from my itunes and restored to sync again. i just got the same proplem on the new 122 song. My ipod still says theres loads of space left to use but just doesnt sync the songs.
does anyone have any idea what is going on, i read the FAQ on it in support and that REALY didnt help and just frustrated me more, so im woundering if anyone has had this proplem and solved it.
PLEASE share any help you can give!

for anyone having this proplem and done EXACTLY the same as me.. the trik is EXACTLY wat the suport says but i didnt realise i mite have 3 or 4 corrupt files. so if u removed 1 file.. try removing every file the sync stops on.. i had to remove 2 in the end. just keep removing you wont have many corrupt files.
good luck i hope i helped.. i certainly helped my self haha

Since I downloaded iTunes 11, I get a message when syncing my iPod that some of my songs were not copied because they are not authorized on this computer, I go to Store Authorize This Computer, a message pops up telling me that this computer is already.

So I am unclear, did you purchase these songs or import them from a cd?
If you imported them and still have the CD try importing them again and see if they work the delete the others.
Or if you purchased from itunes re-dowwnload and see if they work. Maybe they are corrupted files and this should resove it.

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?

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

HT1386 i synced my iPod because i had songs i wanted to transfer them to it and it keeps telling me that the sync is complete and i should disconnect it and when i disconnect it i didn't find any songs. please help!

i synced my ipod because i had songs i wanted to transfer them to it and it keeps telling me that the sync is complete and that i should disconnect the ipod from my computer but when i disconnect it i find that no songs are on my ipod. can you please tell me what to do? thank you

If the songs you're trying to transfer were purchased on iTunes.... i think they can let you redownload it FREE OF CHARGE.

"Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing 30GB iPod

"Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing classic 30GB IPod.
We have a few thousand songs and about 50 videos on the above ipod. Just yesterday, we received the "disk cannot be read from or written to" message when trying to sync and charge the ipod.
Our software is up to date, and we restored the factory settings, to no avail. The ipod actually starts to sync, but after about 20 mins. we receive this message and only 103 songs and 21 videos have been synced. We have a second newer ipod with 80GB which syncs from the same itunes account with no problems.
We recently added photos, so we tried to sync the 30GB ipdo without the photos, but still received the subject error message.
Please help!

Sounds like a hardware problem - a bad disk or, at the very least, bad sectors on the disk in the iPod.
There probably is not much you can do. You can try putting the iPod into disk mode and check the drive using Windows:
Open My Computer
Right click the iPod
Choose Properties
Go to the Tools tab
Click the Check now button
Windows may or may not be able to salvage the drive. You do not say if you can still use the iPod without errors; there is the possibility that you will lose data on the iPod during the repair.

That is correct. This
