Rather sheepishly though I found out that it was due to the cable I was using to sync to my iPod. Replaced that and haven't had a problem since.

But IMHO iTunes is not the best software apple develop since some of the comments are still pretty confusing. I guess with the new iTunes update, all these error is a history, right.

I tried your fix and it worked instantly. Too bad Apple doesn't know how to do a Google search.

It appears to be a simple oversight of Apple and I would hope that they will eventually fix the issue as it has been more than 2 years since it was first reported to them.
