What does this error message mean and what do I do about it?

I get the message after a few tunes have been transferred to my iPod mini during an update operation. I click OK, and tell it to update again. It starts where it left off, then gets the same error message again after a few more tunes. My iTunes Library is larger than my iPod mini, so I have the Options set to "Automatically update selected playlists only" with one playlist selected.

It was working fine last week, and now it isn't. I don't know anything that changed.

I tried resetting the iPod mini by holding Menu+Select for 6 seconds until i got the Apple logo. The same thing happens. I also tried reading the manual and looking at Apple's iPod support pages. I didn't see a description of this problem.
