My Ipod Will Not Sync

Question

When I plug in my ipod 30GB to my computer a message comes up in itunes that says "ipod cannot be synced. An unknown error occured. -48" So I close out the message and it shows the ipod is there, so I go to put a new song on the ipod, and it goes on but then the message comes up again, the message keeps coming up and I can do nothing about it, any suggestions?

Answer 1

u could try restoring it in itunes

Answer 2

I assume you are set up for automatic syncing. Sometimes if you toggle the lock switch on and off a few times, or simultaneously hold down both the middle button and the clickwheel space just above it for a few seconds, it will come back. But what I've done in the past is check out Apple's Help function online. It's pretty clear on what are common problems and it's how I learned. Just make sure you back up your music files (whether you have to fix your iPod or not!)

I'm the most technically-challeneged person alive, but the Apple's iPod Help pages have rescued me every time.
