I just upgraded my iTunes to 7.3.2.6 and after tried to sync my iPhone with Yahoo Address Book and it failed. No other problems, just Yahoo Address Book. Not sure it has anything to do with the upgrade but I have "never" had a problem before with this. I have tried a number of times with no luck.

".... unknown error occured (4). Please try again later."

Anybody else using Yahoo Address Book with iPhone Contacts?
 
I'm running XP SP2 and manually checked for updates in iTunes.

It told me that 7.3.1 was the latest and no update was available.

I think I will post my problem on the main page where this was reported. Someone reported you same problem and said they just used the provided link to download and it worked. However, for me it just prompted me for download. I have it set to always check. I am pretty new to Apple Software so not sure what to say. My "About" says I am on the new release.

There is an update, I had to run Software Update (in OS X)
every time I tired to check with iTunes it said I had the latest version though...

Weird. I'm on OS X and I did a software update because I heard there was a new update. Anyway, it is true. 7.3.2 (6) is what I see on the "About iTunes" window.
 
I ran the Apple Software update applet and it prompted me to download 7.3.2 iTunes + quicktime...so maybe it's just a glitch in iTunes.
 
sorry if this is a dumb question but how do you sync the IPhone with your yahoo address book?

iTunes / iPhone / Info / Contacts / Yahoo Address Book

Did this by memory, should be close. I like this because I can update the Yahoo Address Book from any Web Browser (or via iPhone). I am hoping that over the air Sync will someday be available. They are the only Push Email so just hoping.
 
I just found out that the Error happens "after" the Sync actually works. I made changes on the iPhone and also on Yahoo Web Site and after Sync the changes are updated correctly. So the error (4) is does not cause a Sync problem. Not sure why it is reporting an error.
 
I can report the same problem -- with iTunes 7.3.2.6 (on Windows) and the latest firmware upgrade to the iPhone.

PLUS: Yahoo mail no longer works either.

I didn't find any new problems with Yahoo Mail. Same old inconsistant problems.
