Great that was the problem, It disabled  i18n - content types renamed it and enabled it again but that didnt work, it went back to the original name. What I had to do was go to the internationalization String settings, then look for the string that represented that content type then i set it.

I had once a time this error.

In my case, it was because the i18n module breaks a default Drupal
behavior. I don't really know if this bug is still here.

Read http://drupal.org/node/300167

It may be the source of your problem.
