-45054

Hi there -
Perhaps one of you can help me. When I try to start iTunes, it says "An unknown error has occurred: -45054" and then it crashes.
I have tried re-installing it a few times, to no avail.
Any ideas for me?
Thank you all.
Brooke

Ipod Touch won't sync with Itunes (error 45054)

Trying to sync an used Ipod Touch -- All data /settings have been erased. Computer recognizes but unable to sync with ITunes -- notes error 45054.

I Appreciate your responding to my inquiry but as all those answers were for Mac, I was discouraged.
I'm on the cutting edge of stupid trying to translate the same problem to Windows from Instructions for a Mac use.

I open iTunes and I received this error message (-45054), then my iTunes closes. How can I fix this?

After the latest update I did, 23Oct2013 7:30pm PT, my iTunes no longer opens up without the error message (-45054). I click "ok" to acknowledge the message and it immediately closes iTunes with no further information. Any help would be greatly appreciated, expecially if it's an actual employee of Apple. They seem to be way to into the user-helping-user system they need to step up.

Hi,
re: the dialogue: You do not have enough access privileges for this operation Error code -45054
A fellow musican I know had an identical issue with this and asked me to check it out. I fixed it and wrote a long set of instructions on my blog. His problem was with 10.6 but it was an update he did preparing to move to Mavericks.
I was able to reproduce the error by just removing the /Shared folder from /Users
Here is the link to the problem and the instructions on how I fixed1t

How do I fix the "unknown error (-45054)" when starting iTunes?

When starting iTunes an "unknown error (-45054)" occurs and iTunes terminates. How do I fix this problem?

Might the error be -50?

Keep getting error -45054 when trying to make a purchase from iTunes.

Whenever I try to make a purchase from iTunes, I get a -45054 error. On the Mac, this error is tied to disk access rights; my problem is not the same. Any ideas? Thanks

Help!!! error -45054 when trying to play/download music in iTunes

Help! I've recently bought my macbook pro. I can see my the music i have previously bought on my iPhone in iTunes but cloud symbol next to most music. When I try to play any of these or download new songs I get error message -45054. I have checked and have shared folder in Users which I understand is important for iTunes. I am running OSX 10.9.4. Driving me nuts, could be persuaded to take the whole **** thing back if I can't get this sorted - expected better given the outlay cost!!

This is one of the rare occasions when you should run Repair Permissions (not Repair Disk) in Disk Utility. Ignore the many false warnings that it produces. If there's no change, follow the instructions in this support article.

Error -45054 when trying to download purchases

HI! I just recently bought a Macbook air. Every time I try to download my purchases i get "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error ocurred (-45054)". I've had the iMac for five years now and have never had this problem when downloading my purchases. Please help!

I had the same problem yesterday after purchasing my MacBook, I ended up going to 'App Store' and updating iTunes and since, have been able to download songs & movies.

HT2311 error 45054 with iTunes

Downloaded latest itune 11.1 or something, now theres an error 45054 saying I haven't got access privaleges and then a second box comes up with an error 45054. Any ideas?

Hi jasjam007,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The first thing I would suggest to open the Applications folder on your Mac. In the Utilities folder you will see the Disk Utility application. Follow the instructions below to Repair Permissions on your internal hard drive.
Troubleshooting permissions issues in Mac OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963?viewlocale=en_US
Restart your computer and see if that resolves your issue. If not, you may need to drag the iTunes application to the trash and redownload it from our website:

I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

ITunes won't open, error -45054

So a couple weeks ago, my MacBook Pro would not turn on. I had a similar problem a few months ago where the issue was the startup disk was full. I have a 256 GB hard drive so it can fill up fast sometimes. I had a back up of my full iTunes library so I decided to delete my iTunes Media Folder hoping to clear up a lot of space. It cleared up the space but the MacBook still wouldn't turn on. Turns out the power button on the body had broken. So i ordered a new bottom body, switched it out, and my laptop turned on fine. I decided that I would restore my iTunes library. So I opened up iTunes and I got two windows that popped up over the normal iTunes window. One says "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" and the other says "An unknown error occurred (-45054)." and then iTunes automatically closes. I have used Disk utility to Verify Disk Permission and to Repair Disk Permissions. Neither of these worked. I then tried reinstalling iTunes and that didn't work either. If anyone has any ideas of what I should do, I'd be very happy to try them.

If repairing permissions using Disk Utility does not work, try: iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1277

ITunes will not open, Error message -45054

My itunes on my Mac will not open, all that comes up is this message
"An unkown error occurred (-45054)"
I can't seem to find the source of the problem and all the drop downs from the menu bar are not able to be clicked on so can't really get anymore informaion out of it.
can anyone help me out?

Murray3703, only one other time did this happen to me. It was over 6 years back when I had an iPod Nano and after doing the reinstallation, it wiped out all of the content and applications and corrupted by Nano to the point Apple said it could not be fixed. I had no other things corrupted on my laptop. So, I know it was not a virus.
I have tried fixing the problem with redownloading and "repairing" the problem but, it did not work. Since the Nano incident, I am somewhat reluctant to do this for fear that I will loose all of my content and paid applications to apple? I also have Windows 7.
Did you have any issues with uninstalling and reinstalling? Thanks.

HT1199 iTunes quits on opening and gives me the error message -45054? Does anyone know what this error message is all about?

I use iCloud for my music and recently deleted some duplicates from my desktop iMac (about a year old.) Then tried to launch iTunes from the laptop about a 2008 macbook and get the error message -45054 and it won't open.
Any ideas? Would upgrading to Maverick help or make matters worse?

ITunes closed with error (-45054)

Hey,
After a recent upgrade, my iTunes crashed after opening with the error "Unknown Error as occured (-45054)" I have unistalled and re-installed it but still now help!
Any ideas?

The iTunes error is because doesn't exist a shared folder inside the /Users folder
You can fix this creating a shared folder and assign correct permissions
In order to create the shared folder do the following
Open Terminal and write
sudo mkdir -p /Users/Shared/
This command creates Shared folder inside Users folder
Now you have yo assign permissions
If you are running 10.5.8 or before write: sudo chmod 777 /Users/Shared/
If you are running 10.5.6 and after write: sudo chmod 1777 /Users/Shared/
Thats all. Close Terminal. Open iTunes and voilá

Can't download any apps anymore. Get an error of -45054. Running Yosemite and tried to update itunes, but that doesn't work either.

I "updated" itunes and now I am unable to download any apps. I receive the error message -45054, try later. Please advise.

Try repairing disk permissions in Disk Utility (it should be in the Utilities folder in Applications) : https://discussions.apple.com/message/23478840
If that doesn't fix it then try the suggestion three posts further down that thread by the same user (wmark), that appear to have worked for some people
