iPad can't sync due to errors 1139 and 13011 - help!

Hi guys,

I've been having all sorts of iTunes issues lately, including the infamous "The information on this page is out of date" message when updating my apps. Following Apple's directions, I completely uninstalled iTunes (including the .kext's), and subsequently reinstalled it. Happily, the error I mentioned went away, and my iPhone 3GS is syncing happily.

Unfortunately, my iPad is suddenly choking iTunes when I try to sync it. I first get a box stating "The iPad "My iPad Name" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (1139)." When I hit the "OK" button, it acts as though it is syncing, but then I get a similar error with the code "13011". The error alert for error 13011 pops up repeatedly, although the iPad does appear to sync throughout.

I also notice two other oddities:

First, if I leave the iPad plugged in, it continually attempts to sync, coughs up the error code 13011, the iPad goes back to the home screen, and ~30 seconds later it attempts to sync again.

Second, every time it tries to sync, it's also claiming to be updating the same 7 apps, over and over. I don't see any obvious connection between the updates, other than that they're fairly recent updates (last ~2 days or so).

What's going on? My iPad has been freshly restored just a few days ago, and is working fine otherwise. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Huxley
