5002 Error then, says Itunes cannot Authorize my account

New Macbook, but I have used itunes for years. When I set up HomeSharing on my PC, everything is fine. I can connect with itunes, the Store, and the computer is authorized.
When I get on the Macbook to start Homeshare, it says I need to authorize, and when I try to authorize it, it either gives me a 5002 error, or it tells me I need to authorize my account. BUT when I get to the store, I can log in and download music, just not play any old music I have purchased.
Please HELP!!!

Hello, norman larry scott, jr.
Thank you for the question. Normally when I see this error, it has to do with syncing photos. I am unsure if you have the preference to sync photos from your Mac to your devices however. See the section labeled iPhoto or Aperture in the article below. This may resolve the issue with the error that you are receiving.

Make sure to test the results by processing a sync after these steps.
Cheers,

Restored phone, and now i get an error message saying "itunes cannot connect to this iphone" error code: 0xE800000A

so i restored my phone and updated to ios 6, but now my itunes isnt recognizing my phone, and all of my contacts/pictures/messages etc are gone. please help. i'm having so many problems with this update, and i've never had a problem with an apple product yet.

Is your iPhone turned on or off? Are you still able to use it? If yes, sync everything to your iCloud so everything is saved. The following steps/suggestion will delete all your data so it is important to sync everything to your iCloud or iTunes:
Again, WARNING: This will restore the iPhone to factory setting.
Connect your iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes, turn your iPhone off (hold down power button), hold down power button (on top) while holding the home button (middle button/the only button on the iPhone) for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, release ONLY the power button (on top) while continuing to hold down the home button (middle button/the only button on the iPhone) until a message appears in iTunes.
Then you can try updating yout iPhone again..
I hope this helps! Good luck.

iOS 6 (which runs on the iPhone 5) requires iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
Upgrade OS X on your Mac.

I am unable to access my LR5.7 Catalog of my recent holiday. I am running Windows 7 (64Bit) and recently installed and then uninstalled DxO Optics Pro. The error message says it "cannot be opened because another application already has it opened.Quit the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch" The problem is, that I can only see one copy of LR5 open and cannot locate the ".lrcat.lock" file for the specific catalog I want to open. I have tried re-booting my computer, but this did not work.

Thanks Geoff. I was finally able to locate the ".lrcat.lock" file relevant to the catalog I want to open. Once I deleted it, LR5 was able to access my images. Problem solved. THANK YOU

iTunes runs on your computer, not your phone. Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer. If you're using a Mac, and running OS X 10.5, you will need to upgrade OS X first.

I am trying to load firefox but keep getting thru the process to the end and then getting error mesage saying ff cannot establish a connection to the server at en-gb etc

download ff completed for windows xp but then error message says ff cannot connect to the server. dont know what else i can try at this point. using laptop with wireless connection and ie working fine.

If Firefox cannot connect to any site, the problem may be a firewall blocking access. For details on that and other possible causes see [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]].

When transferring music from iTunes to iPhone after about 3 downloads a message come up saying iTunes cannot get information from phone and I should restore phone to factory settings I do not wont to do this because I am worried I will loose all phone contacts ,pictures,and songs anyone know how I can resolve this

Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data, which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair.
Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air such as with an Apple iCloud account, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail.
Photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
In addition, contacts and photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup.

I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.

My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

Error message saying "iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language"

When trying to launch iTunes I'm getting an error message saying "iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version"? Any suggestions are much appreciated and thank you in advance!

Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
Restart the PC first.
If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
Can you launch your iTunes now?

When trying to sign into facebook in settings for ios6, I get an error that says "You cannot sign in from your iPhone since you have opted out of Facebook Platform." What gives?

When trying to sign into facebook in settings for ios6, I get an error that says "You cannot sign in from your iPhone since you have opted out of Facebook Platform." What gives?
More info: I've combed through the settings in facebook and there is nothing that shows I'm blocking anything from accessing it.

Sure sounds like a Facebook setting. When you look at your Privacy Settings in Facebook (on facebook.com), you should see something under "Apps you use" that says
Turn off your ability to use apps, plugins, and websites on and off Facebook. After you turn this off, we will not store information about you when you use apps or websites off Facebook.
The "Turn off" is a hyperlink that shuts down the Facebook platform. If you don't see this, or if the wording is different, you may have (inadvertently?) shut this off, and should be able to turn it back on.
Edit: The sequence to that screen on facebook.com is: Privacy Settings (from the upper right dropdown), then "Ads, Apps and Websites" will have an "Edit settings" link to the right. This is where you'll see the "Apps you use" screen.

Started having trouble with iTunes so I uninstalled everything and tried to reinstall but it says ' iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.' Well, I've uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times. Now what?

I figured it out. A week ago I had downloaded a screensaver from a website I trusted and that's when my problems started. I uninstalled it but that didn't help. So, I reinstalled it then used an uninstall softtware app that cleanns more than the control panel does. Then I used a computer cleaner to be sure everything was wiped clean. And it worked. I downloded iTunes for the 7th time in 2 days and finally it worked! And I lost nothing from my account.
Maybe this info will help others.
