This is an uncommon but not completely unheard of issue. All the posts I've seen about it indicate it's a problem with photos and specifically the iPhoto cache.

Thanks to BigMac my iPhone is working again.

Thanks very much.

I followed the link recomended but I looked at the pivileges of the iPhoto cache folder.

I was not in the list instead unknown was there. I added myself and synced successfully.

iPhone seems to be back to normal.
