Particularly the steps under "Additional Information":

1. Check for app updates.
2. Force the app to close.
3. Restart your device.
4. Update your iOS device.

When performing Step 2 close all of the applications that are running. Once you've completed the steps, attempt the sync again.

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

Cheers,

Pedro.
