"The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Help! This keeps coming up. I've not changed anything. What do I need to do to fix this?

Sounds like a Windows user privelidge problem. Are you using an administrator account on the PC?

when adding songs to the library, I receive this message
""The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. you do not have. You do not have enough access priviledges for this operations"
Any tips?

Thanks for your answer. I will try to force my login as Administrator by entering in Safemode. However, I'm running a Windows Based system, and the only user in my machine is mine, and it have been defined it as Administrator, so I don't expect a different behavior if i force the administrator by Safe mode.
will let you know.
Any other idea?
Does Itunes generate a Log or something that I can review and find details about that error message?

You need to have enough rights to write to the My Music folder.
Most likely, your My Documents folder or My Music folder is missing or broken. Create the My Music folder in your My Documents, if it's not there, then use TweakUI to set it as the special My Music folder.

keep getting '' the itunes library file cannot be saved. you do not have enough access privledges'' when ever i try to add or change my library, why? have tried several suggestions on the internet to stop this from happening but with no success. i am running windows 7. has started happening since installing new security software. would this have anything to do with this problem? any suggestions

The location of the iTunes Library file may be read-only or owned by a different user.
Default locations:
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<login>\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
Vista: C:\Users\<login>\Music\iTunes
Windows 7: C:\Users\My Music\itunes
Right click the iTunes folder and choose Properties
Look at the Attributes and see if Read-Only is checked.
Uncheck it and click OK, at the apply to all subfolders and files prompt, make sure all subfolders and files is selected and click OK.
If your iTunes library saves now you are done.
If it does not you will need to try on each directory above the iTunes directory.
Of course if you are not using the default locations you'll have to alter the path to the one you find in iTunes Edit->Preferences, Advanced tab.

Same problem here since latest update. As usual poor support from Apple with no answer or fix for this bug.

The iphone cannot be synced. you don't have enough access privileges for this operation

the iphone cannot be synced. you don't have enough access privileges for this operation
contacts ,calander and notes get syncronised but apps do not . at 4 stage above message come

If you still want to sync your photos try this instead:
1. Go to the Pictures folder in the Finder window (Pictures usually appears under Favorites in the sidebar of the Finder window)
2. **Locate the iPhoto Library file and Right click on the file and select Show Package Contents.
3. Locate the iPod Photo Cache folder and delete it.
4. Try the sync process again, it should work.
** Sometimes the iPod Photo Cache folder is simply in the Pictures folder and step 2 is not necessary

" Could't download purchase........" something like media file and stuff. Does anyone have a solution to this problem. This is my mom's old macbook pro and have never had a problem before. Just down loaded the new updated Itunes today but that didn't help anything. Please help. Thank you

Hey veo1,
I found the following information about that error message:
These messages occur if permissions are incorrect on your designated music folder or on a folder inside your designated music folder. Permissions are settings that determine who can read, write to, or execute a file or folder on your computer. Every file and folder on your hard disk has an associated set of permissions.

I have a new PC and I am getting the message "The iTunes Library File cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." I am the only one using this PC and I have Windows 7 Pro and have an administrator account. Help

Can anyone help me with this problem. ITunes message," The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." I have administrator account and transferred files from old PC. I downloaded new iTunes program on new PC. I synced my iPhone to new PC, no problem. I deleted old account after indicating shared files to new admin account. Can anyone help?

A belated reply, as the problems itunes has have discouraged me from using it much. If you uncheck the "read only" box, it doesn't stay that way! Next time you use it, the box comes up checked.
I'm still having that problem, even when I open iTunes as administrator.
I've yet to see the answer to this problem. I use itunes mostly to download audiobooks, and I'm ready to download more, and want to save them!

I keep getting dialog box saying " The itunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" I am the only user on this computer and only one library! how do i change access privileges please?
