Q: itunes error -50

Well, I updated iTunes to the 10.3 beta and now my phone won't synch. It backs up the files and then attempts to synch. Just about reaches "notes" and then stops with a dialog box indicating a -50 error. Anyone know what this is and how to fix it? Thanks so much!

iMac 24" (Intel), iMac 20" PPC, MacBook Pro (Intel), Mac OS X (10.5.1)

Wait a minute.... this is a beta you're talking about? Shouldn't you be discussing this in the developers' forum?

You may want to try downloading and updating to iTunes 10.5 from here -> http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

This Apple article says if you see the -50 message with iTunes 10.3 you should update -> iTunes: "-50" alert when syncing your iOS device to iTunes 10.3
