Today while I was syncing my 32 GB iPod touch (it has OS 3.1.3) using iTunes 9, I got an error “the iPod ‘XYZ’ cannot be synced. The required file is locked”. An unknown error occurred. After which I tried switching the iPod and restarting it and iTunes once again. Still nothing happens, anyone with ideas on how to fix it.

peter1 		The “iPod cannot be synced” error message you are getting is displayed when writing is not possible due to locked library, meaning to say it is set to read only operation. It makes the files inaccessible. Follow the given steps to solve the problem

• Select iPod disk from my computer, then right click the iPod_control folder from where you have to uncheck read only attribute
• Next right click the iPod and go to properties
• Tools- error checking section- select ‘check now’ tab
• Check ‘automatically fix file system error’ option
• Click on start button
• After the scan is completed, eject iPod and then continue the process after connecting it once again.

However if the above cannot help, problem lies with the database, it might be corrupt. In that situation you need to restore the iPod from iTunes. As this will end up with data loss, iPod data recovery software will be required if backup of iPod disk data is not available.
