After enabling my firewall, I can't get the itunes permissions to stick

I recently turned on my firewall (Security & Privacy --> Firewall-->Advanced-->Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections). I made sure to add iTunes to the permissions box above it. Regardless, now every time that I run iTunes, it asks me "Do you want the application “iTunes.app” to accept incoming network connections?". I can't get the permissions (in the firewall) to stick.
I followed someone's suggestion that there maybe a problem with iTunes' code signing (so that the firewall will recognize it as such) so I ran "codesign -v /Applications/iTunes.app" in Terminal, and the response i got was: "/Applications/iTunes.app: a sealed resource is missing or invalid In architecture: i386"
This is the iTunes version that was preloaded on my MacBook Air, then updated (today) to 10.5.1.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Sounds like a Codesign issue.  From terminal, type:
codesign -vvv /Applications/iTunes.app/
You should see:
/Applications/iTunes.app/:  valid on disk
/Applications/iTunes.app/: satisfies its Designated Requirment
But if you see:
/Applications/iTunes.app/:  a sealed resourse is missing or invalid
[lists reources]
You can either delete the offending resouces (risky) or try redownloading and reinstalling the latest iTunes.dmg from Apple.   Try the reinstall first.

  • I accidentally erased a music album that I purchased on iTunes. How can I get the iTunes store to recognize that it is no longer in my iTunes library and download it again?

    Delete the broken links in iTunes then look at your purchased list to redownload.
    If this happened because you were deleting files from the iTunes folder in Finder, don't.  You have to let iTunes do all the deleting and moving or you will end up with broken links.

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

    How can I get the iTunes music on my phone on my computer as well? Some of it is there but not everything...

    I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks).  Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window.  I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box.  When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window.  It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.

    Hi Lawrence,
    Thanks for your prompt response, however I have first seen it now. I have placed an active SIM card in the iPhone turned it off and on. It now says SIM locked, please write access code. The problem is I don't remember the password. When I connect it to iTunes it tell me that I have to write the password before it can be used with iTunes...... Do you have any good ideas? I see you are from the NYC area.... used to work there back in the early 90´   Those were good days..... What a City

  • I just purchased a movie and I can't get the iTunes extras to play, the unrated version plays but I want to watch the special features . Am I just stupid or is there something simple I am not seeing?

    I just purchased a movie and I can't get the iTunes extras to play, the unrated version plays but I want to watch the special features . Am I just stupid or is there something simple I am not seeing?

    Hello there, NighHawk420.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some practical information on where to locate the iTunes Extras when purchased with a movie from iTunes:
    About iTunes LP and iTunes Extras
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3823
    When you purchase a movie with iTunes Extras, the primary movie along with the iTunes Extras will download to your iTunes Movie folder. Mouseover the cover art and click the icon on the album to open the main menu to play the movie or view other features.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Connot get it to accept cookies; privacy settings are re-set each time after I change them. How can I get the privacy setting to stick and accept cookies?

    I need to accept cookies to log into a technical site. I clear all cookies and the history and follow the instructions for setting privacy options to "Use custom settings for history" and to accept all cookies. When I go back to try logging into the site, it still tells me cookies aren't accepted. When I go back to Options-Privacy, the setting has been changed back to "Remember history" from "Use custom settings for history". I have done this about 5 times, trying various options, closing Firefox after making the change and starting it again - nothing works. How can I get the privacy settings to stay as I set them and accept cookies?

    Blocking all cookies in Safari does not work. Deleted cookies will not stay deleted. There are numerous threads on this going back years, both in these forums and elsewhere. Many claim to have submitted the issue to Apple, but I have never seen anyone post a reply.
    I have seen many suggested fixes that involve finding the cookies file, some including Terminal manipulations, and none seems to work universally. I can find noplace where Apple addresses this officially with an actual Apple-approved explanation or how-to.
    Bottom line, your browser's security features should do what they claim: delete cookies. When they come back without ever even visiting another page, this is clearly not working in the way a reasonable user would expect.
    Bottom line, Safari does not protect users' privacy in the way it pretends to and, after so many years of this issue, it appears that Apple wants it this way.
    Having spent way too much time on this, I realize the choice is between Safari which is pretty well optimized; Firefox which is a lot pokier, at least for me; and Chrome, which I assume funnels personal information directly to Google.

  • How can I get the iTunes 1 page to stop popping up on my computer every 2 minutes?

    Ever since I set up iTunes to synch with my IPad I get the iTunes page popping up on my computer every 2 minutes.  It's very annoying.  Can anyone tell me how to stop it?

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • How can you get the itunes app onto your computer so I'm able to get music off my ipod?, how can you get the itunes app onto your computer so I'm able to get music off my ipod?

    i got a new computer and im unable to get the itunes app on there to conect my ipod to it and get my music and pictures off of it. does anyone know how im able to download itunes on a laptop?

    Click Itunes at the top of this page and download it.
    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • How can I get the iTunes Store to open on my PC running Windows 7?

    I have upgraded iTunes software for my iPod Touch and my PC.  iTunes store will not open on my PC.  Is it supposed to open to purchase items or do I have to use the iPod Touch for all of this.

    A message appears stating that iTunes has stopped working.  This happens everytime.  I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it and still the same thing happens.  Is the problem in windows or the new iTunes that came out in October.  The computer has worked in the past, but I not had a need to go to the iTunes Store for several weeks and now I can't get to it from my PC.  It works fine from my iPod Touch.  This is my only Apple Device and it may be my only one to ever purchase if this is an example of the Apple service.
    I apologize on the lateness of this response, but I am not real adept at using sites such as this.  Just now figured out how to respond to a reply without going around the world.
