First off, I had no idea that the Mac OS X 10.6.4 update affected Mail. Probably because Apple never bothered to mention it in the release notes. Nonetheless, this greets me after launching Mail post-update:
I’m also surprised at how much I’m liking iBooks for my iPhone. There are tons of free, interesting-sounding books, and it’s great to have these handy when I just need a little something to keep me occupied. It also lets me read PDFs, which is awesome.
But maybe the biggest surprise with iBooks is that if I want to sync my books to my computer I’ll have to delete all the songs, movies and TV shows from my iPhone:
Hmmm… That seems awful drastic. I think I’ll pass.
If anyone knows how to sync my books to my computer — and what I might do with them once I have them on there — let me know. For now I think I’ll forego deleting all my data.
And check out iBooks. It’s surprisingly good.

Are you syncing your phone with the same computer you originally synced with when you added the music/movies etc?
Because i’ve had a similar error when I’ve tried to sync from a second computer.
Yep, same computer.
I suspect it’s because I’ve chosen to “Manually manage music and videos” so if I want to sync any purchased stuff I have to start from scratch.
It’s basically a stupid consequence of DRM and how that’s handled on iPod-like devices. Lame.
