Windows Errors when updating IPOD

When updating my IPOD, ITunes comes up with error message below
"iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" - and then wants to send an error report off to Microsoft
I have updated the latest version of ITunes, reinstalled it, updated the latest version of IPOD updater. Updated my IPOD and then reset it clean. I have tried a different fire wire port. I just can't figure out why it keeps shutting down after about the 3rd song. This morning it updated fine.

hi Ellent!
hmmm. if you're getting that error message under those circumstances, let's try getting a crash log to the Discussions Hosts, so they can throw it over the fence to the Apple engineers, so they can have a look at it.
Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
drwtsn32 -i
And hit return.
This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
plug the ipod in, collect the crash log, and send it to a discussions host
in the email:
(1) let them know the precise version number of itunes that you're using. (go into your "Help > About iTunes" to doublecheck.)
(2) let them know the precise version of the ipod updater you're using.
(3) include the URL to this thread so that whoever gets the email has some context, but also explicitly mention that you're getting this when you plug in the ipod.

  • I get an error when updating iPod...

    I've done everything the support tutorial has told me to do and nothing has worked. It used to be a (-36) error but now it just plain says the disk can't be read from or written. I'm tired and want my music, I hope I can fix this soon since I have a trip and would like to bring along my music with me.
    It's a 20GB iPod, not an old model but not a picture or video one.
    Please help!! Thankyou.

  • Error When Updating iPod

    When I try to update my iPod, I get an error message that says that "a required file cannot be found" so my iPod cannot be updated. I followed all of the instructions of reinstalling iTunes and restoring my iPod, but it didn't work. Now my iPod is empty and unable to update.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Deleting the whole ipod photo cache won't create any other problems like viewing photos on my ipod?
    okay, i just did my first photo syncing ever on attractive beast in order to try to work out precisely what happens with this. i'm using itunes 7.0.2.16.
    after i had synced a folder containing four photos to attractive beast (i checked "include full-resolution photos" for the heck of it), i deleted the photo cache from that folder. i still had attractive beast connected at the time, and didn't see any immediate effect. so i ejected her and plugged her back in. here's a link to screenshot of the dialog box that came up:
    dialog box after deleting photo cache and reconnecting attractive beast
    ... so i clicked "yes" and the photos were deleted from attractive beast.
    nothing was resynced immediately. so i went back to the photos tab, and saw that "Photoshop album" was now selected (instead of my folder of photos). i reselected my folder of photos, rechecked "include full-resolution photos" (that had been unchecked), clicked apply, and the four photos synced over again.
    ... so, so long as all the photos that are on the ipod are still in the folder you select for syncing, i think you should be fine ...
    (granted, this is the first time i've ever done this, so if anyone else with some more experience with sort of thing would like to leap in with any additional observations, i'd be greatly obliged.)

  • Keep on getting unknown error when updating ipod

    I keep on getting unknown error (-4) whenever i try to update songs and podcasts into my ipod video and it won't update anything at all!

    I know it does not deal with the same error number, but try this article. Also, make sure your iTunes and iPod software are up-to-date (see here for iTunes and here for iPod).

  • Error when updating! Help please!!

    I've been having a problem with the artwork updating on my 5th iPod. I kept getting an error when updating in iTunes whenever I added artwork to songs. So I was told to go into iTunes and go under iPod options and UNCHECK the box to display the artwork on my iPod. Then click okay. Then, go back into it and CHECK the box TO display the artwork and I get an error; "..Unknown Error occurred (-50)". Same error. And yes I have pressed the center button on my iPod to scroll through the different things. And I have restarted the program and computer. Tried disconnecting hte iPod, closing the program, restarting computer, restarting iTunes and reconnecting iPod and every combination of the steps (I've done many searches on this subject here) and same result. I've tried other different things but it all ends up to this error. Can some one please help me

    Hi Melophage,
    I managed to do a OS X Recovery Reboot by restarting my computer and holding down Command and 'R'. I reinstalled OS X, and now my computer is working again.
    However I'm going to take my computer into the Genius bar for review.
    I have a Macbook Pro from 2012 (with a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7 Processor) and was attempting to update OS X (I think Version 10.8.5).
    Many thanks for your message.

  • Windows error when starting iTunes 5.

    Hey.
    My iTunes suddenly started giving me a Windows error when starting it. I installed iTunes 5 instead of iTunes 4 recently, and it has been running. But today when I wanted to transfer some more music to my iPod iTunes wouldn't start. I just get the Windows Error... thing. What can I do? I already tried to reinstall it, but as you know, it's god d*mn impossible to completely delete Apple software without a format.
    I talked to a friend of mine who had experienced the same problem, but it was his firewall/antivirus (F-Secure) that was the problem, and I'm running PC-Cillin - which I tried to disable, but it didn't help.
    Help, thank you.

    Deffo a missing quicktime issue. See my post Chris Rocco, "itunes launching problem.", 07:20am Oct 2, 2005 CDT
    Itunes relies for some unknown reason on compression technologies in quicktime libraries. Crazy! No more quicktime alternative!

    Hi just wanted to let you know I solved most of my XP problems with my new IPOD. It won't recognise the IPOD or driver and froze and locked up and then the battery died. After hours of trying different things here is what I did. I completly closed computer down. Waited 15 minutes turned on and reloaded everything. I put the usb cable in but not hooked up to IPOD. I turned off Mcaffee (all of it). After my computer came on. I then went and closed everything I didn't need in the bottom toolbar. (taskbar). I then reloaded the software and waited. Took forever to reload and I don't know why but whatever it worked but I DID NOT HOOK UP THE IPOD LIKE IT SAID! I instead shut down the computer after loading the software and waited 5 minutes and turned it back on. I again waited and shut of mcaffee. It loaded everything fine this time and said new hard ware and drivers detected. I plugged my IPOD in and YES I WAS UP AND RUNNING (THIS IS AFTER 6 HOURS OF PLAYING WITH OTHER THINGS!) I am able to load and play, burn, watch movies, see pictures and everything your suppose too! The only thing I see different than the instructions is I left my usb cable plugged in and when it said to eject the disk I didn't. I also didn't plug in the IPOD (5th Gen) and then I shut down waited and then restarted the computer. I hope this helps others because I know the feeling of wanting to return something you paid dearly for and worked hard at saving money to buy one and it doesn't work. My only thing I dislike about apple is they didn't supply a ac adapter for the IPOD and the instructions say to plug it up when trying to charge battery. DUHHHHHH, ya can't do that if ya don't have one and stores are closed and won' open until Monday! But at least I am up and running. I just hate having to plug up IPOD to computer daily to charge the battery which only last a half a day1

  • Error when updating to 4.2

    My Ipod Touch is on ios 2.2.1 and always get error when updating to 4.2

    I think you have a 1st Gen iPod Touch. You can only go up to iOS 2.2.1 OR you can purchased the iOS 3.1 firmware.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2052
    Purchase the iOS 3.1 Software Update directly from the iTunes Store.
    IF NOT, then try to get a better internet connection (if connect with Wi-Fi) or wait a while and try to reupdate again. If you have to make sure iTunes is up to date (iTunes 11.x)

  • Error when updating Playbook OS version via Blackberry Desktop Manager

    Greeting,
    I have a batch of old playbooks which having the stack charging issue, but I found that I can update the OS to the newest version (2.1.0.1917) via Blackberry Desktop Manager, then the charging algorithm will be changed to the updated one and go over this dead battery issue. I was able to do so successfully in the past week smoothly on several devices.
    But since this Monday, the Desktop Manager is saying "An updated Blackberry Desktop Software component must be installed before you can continue" when downloading the Desktop software and will appear "There was an error updating your software, an error has occurred while downloading the Blackberry Desktop Software.Please try again." and preventing the process. Seems there are some change on the server side starting this week which has caused this problem, but there's no error code to locate the exact issue.
    I tried on 2 different computers as well as completed uninstalling and re-installing the Desktop manager, also tried to disable the automatic update as been advised in some threads. So no clue how to deal with it for now. It will be highly appreciate if some one can share some idea.
    I've attached the step by step screenshots for reference, where you can find here:

    Can you advise where I can find info on "disable the automatic update"?
    just ignore the update if you dont want it on the playbook
    for reloading the OS
    First I would like you to do a Back Up of your PlayBook using your computer and BlackBerry Desktop Software.
    This can be downloaded for free from http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/
    After the Back Up is complete I need you to unplug your PlayBook and then push and hold down the Power Button until the unit Force Powers Off.
    Now, while Desktop Software is still open on your computer and the PlayBook Powered Off, Connect the PlayBook to your computer.
    You should see and error screen from Desktop Software pop up that has the options to Retry, Update, or Cancel.
    QUICKLY choose the Update option.
    This will erase all the information off of your PlayBook and Re-Write the Software back onto it. Once it's complete your PlayBook will need to go back through the setup wizard, and you can then perform a restore using Desktop Software to return your information. The only thing that won't come back after the restore are the apps that you downloaded from App World but they can be easily Re-Installed using the My World feature in App World.

    Hello  Friends,

    Diagnosis
    Errors have been reported in Source System during IDoc update:
    System Response
    Some IDocs have error status.
    Procedure
    Check the IDocs in Source System . You do this using the extraction monitor.
    Error handling:
    How you resolve the errors depends on the error message you get.
    When I checked in TC WE05 says that  IDoc: 0000000000355113 Status: Error during syntax check of IDoc (outbound) with status 26 .
    Please advice .

    Hi  Krishna4bi,
    Actually we will monitor idoc status in BD87 in SAP BI As well ECC , while extracting the data from source sytem  if any idoc struck we will manually process in BD87 , But you are telling that while loading the datasource the error occurred , so please check once in ECC side . Otherwise see how many packets are still process, make it red that infopackage and do manually update.
