Required folder cannot be found

I know I have asked this question before, but as I have not found an answer, I thought I would ask again.


When trying to sync my Ipad to me Imac via I tunes, I get:

I also get the following

When I back up my wife's Ipad to the same Imac, but on her account, there is no issues.


I have checked permissions on the Itunes folder which appears to be fine.


Hopefully someone will be able to point me in the right direction to solve this infuriation problem.


Thanks

The 2 errors you are seeing don't seem completely related.


The one about the Mac HD is something be copied to your MAC that is failing. This tells me one of the items you have chosen to sync to the iPad was stored off line form the Mac, i.e. on a USB drive etc. Sound like the chosen destination folder on the Mac is not found. This could happen if your iTunes library has entries in that are bio longer there.


You don't need to blank the iPad, just go back over, in iTunes, the items you have chosen to sync.

The most effective way would be to try and "play" each track on the Mac first. You will get an error message there if the Mac can't find the track. Then you can remove the track from your iTunes library or go find it.
