how to fix error 0x800b0101

I had this same issue restoring my ipod.... My fix came to me in a WEIRD way, apparently if your system DATE and TIME are not in sync with "real time" itunes says SCREW YOU.... I went into my date and time settings "WINDOWS 7" and clicked on "INTERNET TIME" and changed the settings. Ran my recovery again on my ipod, and BAM!!! 🙂 worked. No more 0x800b0101 error message.

Hope this helped you

For sure this definitely worked- Set Date and time to sync with windows 😀 thanks!

can you tell me how to change the INTERNET TIME,i do not konw how to deal with it..thank you very much!!!

My time was alrady set as above. I clicked on the update now as well just to be sure. I am still seeing the above error. I am getting this when I attempt to see my updates in iTunes. I actaully downloaded a new application through the iTunes store with no problem. I was also able to download the application updates on my iPhone and sync them back to my PC without error. The problem is I still apparently have 2 applications that are not updated.

Are there any more ideas for a solution?
