I'm getting Error Code 0xE800000A after iTunes update.

I have a PC and until I updated to the newest iTunes update, it worked! Now, it gives me the "unknown error" Error Code 0xE800000A. So far, everything I've read does not offer any solution except the old one - Restore, which doesn't work. HELP!

iPad 2, iOS 6
