I have recently upgraded to vista and have downloaded Itunes 7.1. I have also updated my ipod to 1.2.1 but itunes refuses to sync with with the ipod. The following error message appears. Attempting to copy to disk "JACK'S IPOD" failed. You do not have enough access privilges for this operation. iTunes could not save to your music folder because you do not have write access. Check the permissions on your music folder and folders in your music folder, the try copying this folder again.
I was able to figure out this problem.
That error message regarding access privileges has nothing to do with what the actual problem is. I've reported this to Apple Support and hopefully, they will change the error message to something more meaningful.
In my case, I originally had a Dell laptop running Windows XP. It crashed, but I was able to salvage the hard drive. I bought this Sony with Windows Vista on it and recovered my iTunes Music folder and restored iTunes with all my music as it looked originally on the Dell running XP.
Even though my playlist was setup correctly, the problem turned out to be that I had stored some of my files in the My Music folder on my Dell. The path to that in Windows XP is \Documents and Settings\User\My Music. In Vista, Documents and Settings has been changed to just Users.
So, what this turned out to be was that it had nothing to do with write privileges on the iPod, it's that iTunes simply couldn't find some of the music listed in my Playlist.
To resolve it, I deleted the entries in the Playlist that were pointing to Documents and Settings and added them again from the new music folder in Vista.
Since doing this, I can now sync my iPod with no issues whatsoever.
I hope this helps anyone else having this problem. -
I have tried every trick in the book and read every thread on why my version of Windows Vista will not allow me to get at the iTunes Store. I cannot even get this new iPod Touch to sync with iTunes.
I've rebooted, soft restart, hard restart, removed iTunes and re-installed iTunes. Nada...nothing!
Does anyone else have the same issue and can they offer me a solution?See here for different ways to conserve your iPod's battery life.

3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes on new laptop. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics. Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one. From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...
Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok. -
Iphone 4 will not sync with itunes on Windows 7 64 bit
My iphone 4 will not sync with itunes on Windows 7 64 bit. My computer recognizes the iphone but Itunes does not. Any suggestions?
First it told me to uninstall itunes and install a windows 64 bit version which I did, the phone still won't sync
At the same time the itunes won't access the store
I've never accessed the store before or synced the phone
I live in a country without apple stores and geniuses so this is really the only way someone can help me -

I have a new computer now with windows 8. Old one was windows 7. The itunes library contains all I expect on new computer. Ipod will not sync with content. It says it is syncing but only picks up 1 tune. Solution please. I am on itunes 64 but it makes no difference from 32 bit.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?
I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7. The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8). For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work. However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things! Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.

My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?
I had the same thing happen to me. It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library". This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty. Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing. Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices. If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
I spent an hour with an Apple Genius. he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system. His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system. I suspect that this won't solve it.
The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue. -
i have ipod classic 5gen it will not sync with windows the error message says ipod can not sync as required file missing wht to do???
Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Have a nice day! -
My ipod classic will not sync with windows 8
I have an ipod classic that will not sync with my new laptop which has windows 8 installed. When i plug it into my laptop it doesn't show up in itunes or my computer. I tried it with the ipod in disk mode, and it still won't show up in itunes, but does in my computer-however when i click on it my computer freezes so i have to unplug it.
I've been through several forums already, and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, updating my drivers, renaming the driver that the ipod plugs into, all with no success. I used to have a similar problem on my old laptop, but this could be cured by right-clicking on the ipod in my computer and clicking 'format' - my ipod would then be wiped, but itunes would then recognize it and i could sync everything back onto the device-it was time consuming but it worked. However i am unable to do thisnow as the ipod either doesn't show in my computer, or freezes my laptop when i do finally get it to show in disc mode.
Can anyone offer any advice at all???I have an ipod classic that will not sync with my new laptop which has windows 8 installed.

Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync
Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync any suggestions?
Try a low-tech solution. Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle. Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles! (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).

My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore. I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689" firewall is turned off.. Any ideas?
Thanks Rudegar,
I only synch and do not stream off of my 1st Gen AppleTV
I will try with ethernet but will be a pain in the butt if i can not fix it with wifi for long term fix
I may end up trying to do a named IP address vs DHCP for this appleTV (not sure if i can do both and do not want to remove DHCP as i have a bunch of sensors and other devices that I prefer to dynamically add to the network via DHCP vs. assign each one
Will keep working on other fix options (factory reset, etc.)
Thanks again -

I followed the instructions in those 2 articles. Still not able to see the device in ITunes. I reinstalled the latest iTunes and all updates to my iMac (Mac OSX ver 10.6.8). I tried 3 different USB Cables in different USB ports. Rebooting both the Iphone and IMac. Still nothing seems to be working. I searched the discussion boards and I see other people with the same problem but they seem to run into the same problems finding a solution. I dont understand what happened because this was working properly up until 2 days ago. Do you have any more suggestions?

my iphone 3 will not sync with itunes, it says Apple mobile device is not started, also doing it with ipad - can anyone help??? thanks
Restart your computer. Run iTunes and check for updates. If there is a later version of iTunes available, download and install it. Then try again. If you still cannot see your iPad listed in iTunes make a list of all the things you have tried so that we can see exactly what steps you have taken.
