There was just a thread on this problem. Try setting your timeout to 4 or 5 seconds. I use 5
seconds and generally don't have problems. When I do have problems, though, I kill the hotsync
process, wait about 5 seconds, and try it again. It always works the second time, though I don't
know why (except maybe the possible race condition that was mentioned in the previous thread).
