Hippo, I am getting these 2 error messages when trying to sync music:

1. Attempting to copy to the disk 'Geral L Smith" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.

2. The iPhone 'Gerald L Smith" cannot be synced. The required disk cannot be found.

I synced the iphone to my office computer and it asked if I wanted to merge and I said yes and sense then I cannot sync with my home computer, the original base for the iPhone.

I have 2 pc's running XP

I have restored the iPhone on iTunes.

Any help would be appreciated.
