    "The iPod could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPod.

    I am unable to sync my music, applications, movies, etc. to my iPod touch. The only way I am able to bypass the message that pops out when I try to sync (the one in the title) is by clicking "Apply" instead of "Sync". To do this, I make changes to Apps, Music, or Movies (...) and the buttons "Revert" and "Apply" will replace the button "Sync".
    My problem is most likely not due to using many accounts because I only have one and it is the only one that I use. I do not share accounts with my family members. Still, I have tried everything here, nothing has worked for me. Since I don't often listen to Podcasts, I have deleted them from my iPod. I have no idea why I am unable to sync and no one seems to have the same problem as me.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

  • HT1727 iphone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iphone

    why is itunes saying "iphone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iphone"

    I first called apple and they patched me to a technician who ran a test and determined that I had a virus. He gave me some price quotes and who to call. After my conversation with him, which I knew was BS btw, I immediatley called Geek Squad with whom my computer has a warranty through after they installed virus software on my new laptop (4 months old). I had a VERY long online session where they ran several virus test and found nothing. Although I was VERY happy that my computer didn't have a virus, I still had the problem of my itunes not working. After several hours, he made sure that all of my apps were down loaded, and then restored my iphone to factory settings, and sync my device. It worked perfectly and all and I mean ALL 240 apps were downloaded back onto my iphone along with my music and all of my tones. When asked why my itunes was acting in that manner the answer that I got was,"...apparently you had a correct file some where in itunes and everything had to be reset". Regardless, everything is back to normal and I don't have to get a new phone or delete itunes from my computer. Hope this helps!

  • IPhone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPhone

    Hi everyone.
    I have a reoccuring issue when trying to sync my iPhone 5 to my Mac OS X 10.9.2 (all softwares are up-to-date). Everytime I try to sync my iPhone to my Mac a message pops up saying: "The iPhone "Jennifer" could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPhone".
    I then followed the instructions provided with that pop up message by clicking STORE > AUTHORIZE THIS COMPUTER > LOG IN. But even when I do that, it still does not fix the solution.
    I also tried signing in and out of my apple account, deauthorizing & reauthorizing my MAC, restarted my MAC & iPhone... now I have no idea what to do!
    If someone knows the solution please help! I truly appreciate it.
    -Jennifer

  • IPhone 5S/iTunes (Win7) sync issue: this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPhone

    I am trying to synch my iPhone 5S and iTunes for the first time since upgrading.  I get the following error message: The iPhone ... could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPhone.  To be clear, all I want to do is take the media on my Windows 7 PC and put on my iPhone.  When I authorize my PC, I receive a message that the PC is authorized (making 2 of 5 authorized computers).
    All of the iTunes purchases were purchased under the same Apple ID, I've never had another Apple ID.  Some of the PC media is Amazon mp3 purchases, but this has never been a problem in the past.  I have the latest iTunes installed.
    I tried to fix the problem doing the following:
    1.  Authorizing my computer, retrying to sync.
    2.  Logging into iTunes on my PC, then authorizing the PC, then syncing.
    3.  Not an Administrator account issue (my login is the Admin account)
    4.  I turned off user account controls in Win7
    5.  I removed the SC Info folder in iTunes
    Very frustrating, I've been working on this issue for the past several days.  After purchasing a 5S, with a high end PC/Win7, and the latest version of iTunes, I shouldn't have to make such an effort to access my purchased content.  Please help.

    I found the solution in another post.  By deleting all my apps, I was able to sync the phone.  I hope I don't have to delete all my apps every time I want to sync my phone, but at least now I am able to sync my phone.

  • Error Code: "This computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPad."

    I'm getting Error Code: “This computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPad.” 
    I have tried re-authorizing and the error persists.
    I have also tried de-authorizing ALL my devices, then re-authorizing and that did not help either.
    My husband and I share this iPad and we have set up family sharing. 
    We have also each purchased apps using our separate iTunes accounts before I set up the family sharing. 
    How can we fix this error message so that I can back the iPad up to my Mac again? 
    Husband thinks that at some point we each synced the iPad to our respective Macs.  
    Could that be it?
    Thx!!

    I'm not using family sharing, but if you want to sync or backup the iPad with ITunes, I believe that you have to be signed into the same ID on the iPad that you are signed into on the computer and you also have to be authorized for all Apple ID's on that computer that you want to sync or backup with.
    DO you have multiple iTunes libraries on the one computer?

  • THE IPHONE CANNOT BE SYNCED BECAUSE THIS COMPUTER IS NO LONGER AUTHORIZED FOR PURCHASED ITEMS THAT ARE ON THIS PHONE

    Hi I have a macbook pro (late 2011) running on Yosemite  and an iPhone 5s running iOS 8.1.2 and I have never had a problem until tonight. I wanted to sync my iPhone to add mew music but upon syncing I keep getting a pop up message saying "THE IPHONE "  " COULD NOT BE SYNCED BECAUSE THIS COMPUTER IS NO LONGER AUTHORIZED FOR PURCHASED ITEMS ON THIS PHONE" and tells me to go to the store tab on the top and to authorize this computer and every time I do it says computer is already authorized. I will also mention that my iTunes account is the only account that is used on my Mac and it is the only account I've used on my iPhone. Ive synced them plenty of time with no problems. I have never came across this message before and now my iPhone won't sync. I have been online for an hour now looking for solutions but I haven't found any that successfully worked. Ive rebooted both my Mac and iPhone with no success. ow for some reason when I plug my iPhone in it does not even charge but my Mac reads it and it shows up in the iTunes store so I tried syncing it again 1 more time snap it just gets stuck on step 1. I must also say state that is did successfully back up but absolutely will not sync. Can anybody please help me out without resetting my iPhone. Thanks

    Thanks Gail but ive tried that as well as logging oht and back into my accounts on my iphone and mac but I still get that message. I actually found a solution by unckecking my synced music playlist and clicking sync to remove it and then reclicked on my playlist to sync and it actually synced notmally and I got all of my new songs so I wanted to test it again so I clicked on sync again and the message once again popped up until I did the un-syncing and re-syncing again. I guess I will keep doing that in the future even though its annoying but its better than resetting my iphone.

  • This computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPad

    Dear all, I already authorize this computer but still pop out this messages.
    Please help me to solve it, thanks.

    I'm having the same problem.  My husband and I share this iPad and we have set up family sharing.  Husband thinks that at some point we each synced the iPad to our respective Macs.  We have also each purchased apps using our separate iTunes accounts before I set up the family sharing.  How can we fix this error message?  I bought an new app recently and now can't get it onto the iPad.  Grateful for any wisdom you can share!  Thanks!

    This first appeared on the laptop, i tried on a computer later but same error appear again. I tried almost all tips someone says it works but nothing..
