Hey CarlyR_,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues related to iTunes Store authorization. The following resources may help to resolve these issues:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization

Not to long ago my computer Hard Drive died, and I got a new one and set my computer up to run. I installed Itunes and recently got a update for my iPhone to 5.0. This took my Music and Apps off my phone. I put my Music back on the phone with no problem, but when I went to place the Apps back on my phone, It told me my computer was not athorized to put it on and told me how to athorize it. I went and athuroized it and it told me it was already athorized. So I went to try agian and still will not put the Apps on my phone. What do I do?

After another lovely Itunes update my Itunes is now not letting me sync my Iphone to my computer. This is the error message I recieve "The Iphone 'Des's Iphone 5' could not be synced because this computer is not longer authorized for purchased items that are on this Iphone. It then tells me to authorize this computer even though it is already authorized. Also I can play all of my purchased itunes items on my computer even though it claims it's not authroized when I am trying to sync. After deauthorizing and reauthorizing numerous times and attempting many other things I have not been able to solve this issue. After looking through these disccussion forums I have not seen anyone with this same issue. I would appreciate any help anyone could provide.

How do I authorize my 100+ previously purchased itunes music that is in protected aac form? It prompts that my computer is not authorized even though it is.
are you saying that your computer is autharized from guessing, or do you know it is becuase it says it. in itunes, go to the advanced tab and the last option in that tab should be either aurhorize, or de-authorize. What does it say?

I uploaded a playlist onto my iPhone. After going into Music, and into the specific playlist, only one song showed up in the playlist. After that, I decided to search my phone to see if any of the other songs had made it on there. All of the songs that were supposed to be on my playlist made it onto my phone. Why are they not showing up in my playlist if they are on the phone? Please help me!
Are you sure you have selected the PL? I too have had problems and then finally fiogured out which path to select to see the tunes. For some reason the PL got moved to a deeper level.

Sometimes when I click on a link Firefox opens a blank page. How can I fix this?
This happens mostly when I am trying to subscribe to a site or email a page or information. Can you help please?
Try start Firefox in Safe Mode, sometimes addons cause this issue:

Try scan your PC, can be a malware:

Try get a pop/ad blocker, sometimes this is results of ads:

We have had home share set up for some time and it works great for sharing music but when I try to copy TV shows into my Itunes library it says my computer is not authorized even though it will then let me copy music. I have try to deauthorize and reauthorize my computer a few times and it does the same thing. Really frustrated as my husband has bought a lot of stuff I would like to use also.
THanks!You are my hero thank you it worked!!!!!! I was afraid to deauthorize in case I lost everything but I figured I would follow your advice....Thank you so much

I was going to use iExplorer to try to copy Notes from iphone 4 to my iMac but changed my mind after downloading iExplorer to my iMac. Deleted iExplorer from my iMac. Now my Mac won't recognize when my iPhone is plugged in. Is iExplorer the problem? How do I fix this?
I am using the Yosemite OS on mHi TakesTwo2Tango,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you should definitely be seeing a plus sign after tapping Edit, so I would try a couple relatively easy things (closing the Music app, resetting the iPhone):
iOS: Force an app to close
