Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have an IPAD2, IPOD, 5S and 6....each time I connect to Itunes I get sync error and the code is 54.
Code is not listed on Apples Support page of various codes.
Uninstalled Itunes, restarted Windows PC, dowloaded and reinstalled ITunes, same issue.
Is there a solution to this problem?
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1.2
On the Windows version of iTunes, error -54 means a general IO error occurred that can be caused by many different things: a file is corrupt, a file is locked, or an .m4a file could not be converted to a lower bit rate.
iTunes Library cannot be saved (Error -54) - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1912814
Unknown error (-54) while syncing ipod - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1082953 - problem was locked files
Why does iTunes keep showing a -54 error when I sync my iPad? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114
Error -54 possibly related to Touch Copy - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114 - cleared by deleting preferences on iPad.
I Just started getting this error too. The only change that I made was to download a song from iTunes. I deleted the song from my iTunes library but I still get this error. I have just been canceling the warning then resyncing which seems to go well. During the sync process, my phone and iPad backup normally. I have not found a way yet to get past that warning. As I said, the only change in my system was adding one song.
Itunes sync error code -54
