I have had my iPod touch for a few weeks now, but the other day it stopped syncing - partly.
Let me explain: I can sync Music, Movies, Podcasts and Photos, it is only if I tick anything on the "Info" tab in Itunes that I get an error message. Means: If I want to sync address book, iCal, Mail accounts or bookmarks, iTunes starts syncing the music etc, but then spits out an errormessage when it gets to the latter:
"iTunes could not sync mail accountsto the iPod because the sync serverfailed to sync the iPod"
I then started up up the console to have a look what it wanted to tell me, here is what I got:

The parser will retry as in 10.2, but the problem should be corrected in the plist.

Sending final status from child helper tool back to parent...
I found the above syncservices folder, and dragged it to the desktop to see what would happen.
iTunes could still sync music, but for other data it would tell me this:
"iTunes could not sync mail accountsto the iPod because an error occurred while pushing data from the iPod"
So I quickly moved the folder back, and the same (original) errormessage returned.
I am at loss what to do - reinstall iTunes? ARGH!
