iTunes Crashes Everytime I Try to Sync Music to My iPod

Hey,
I have a question and need a solution.
iTunes crashes everytime I try to sync my music to my iPod.
I have tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling, rebooting, I've reset my iPod Touch to factory default twice even. Nothing has worked. I finally resorted to asking someone here about it and hopefully will get an answer. If not I will call Apple tech support.
I do not think it is a problem with Quicktime, and I have not uninstalled and reinstalled that yet. I have no podcasts or videos on my iPod.
My version of iTunes is up-to-date and my iPod Touch OS is 4.0
Well that's all I have to say!

Thanks in advanced!

As of today, iTunes makes it through half of the sync and then crashes.

Hello,

I am experiencing the same thing. I bought my husband the new iPhone 4 and cannot sync any of his music. It goes for bit and then hangs on a certain song and crashes. I keep removing this items from his playlist as they occur but after 10+ crashes, I have yet to get it to sync.

Some of these items are bought from iTunes so it makes even less sense.

We are trying to sync on his windows XP system to iTunes 9.2.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

At least I am not alone.
Many people seem to be having this problem.
Hopefully Apple gives us a fix soon.

You're definitely not alone. I'm having that very same problem, Kevin. It's extremely aggravating. Between that and my album artwork being all screwy, I'm very disappointed with Apple as of late.

My friend is also having a problem like this. He is also having the album art problem. This amazes me. I wonder what is wrong.

Mine too, have to say its got worse since installing iOS4. Spent 20 mins on the phone to Apple and then was hung up on. Thought it may be Vista but can see i'm not alone.

The good news? It's not our iPods/iPhones it's iTunes.

Bad news? Who knows when it will be fixed. Sounds like Apple should've tested this more thoroughly but I guess they don't know about some of the bugs until after it's released.

I have at least been able to put half of my songs on my iPod, out of the 923, it adds 493 each time I reset my iPod and then attempt to put the songs back on.

My iTunes will start to synchronize but when it says Synchronizing Apps, it freezes up and I have to do ctrl + alt + delete to close iTunes.

My iTunes says "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close" when I click sync music.

SO my problem is, I am trying to import CDs and on any particular CD on any particular song it will freeze. ctrl Alt delete doesn't even work for me. I have to shut off puter by holding in button, it's the only way. This started right after I updated the iTunes. This ***** I am sick of my puter freezing up!! AND why do they(apple) make it so difficult to get in person help? And then I have read other posts, if I even talk to a human it doesn't look like they are even going to have the fix......Sorry, I was no solution, just needed to vent as well, hoping APPLE will get off their a**.

Kevin, mine is finally syncing. What I did was, I hooked my iPod up to iTunes. It took three minutes for iTunes to "verify" **rolls eyes** and then it started to sync as in previous attempts. When it froze, I noted the time and twenty minutes later, it started to synchronize again. *shrugs*

Jennifer, believe me, we all feel your pain. I wish I knew why you're having the issue that you are. The only thing I can say is, I think iTunes 9.2 has way too many "bugs". A lot of people are having issues with iTunes since the recent upgrade.

I am willing to wait for Apple to put out a fix, it is just that this is pestering me.
