Authorize every time I sync with iPhone

Each time I sync my iPhone 3G with iTunes, it asks me to authorize my computer or all my applications will be removed. The thing is, it's already authorized... After I've been asked to authorize it, I have to type my Apple ID and password in, and then iTunes tells me that my computer already is authorized, and including this one I have 4 of 5 computers authorized. I just think it is a bit annoying having to go through this procedure eeeeevery time I sync, since I do that quite a lot. Anyone recognize this problem, and have a way of solving it?
I run the latest version of iTunes and Windows 7, and also that latest version of the iPhone OS.
Thanks !

  • Every time I sync my iPhone 4S I am asked to authorize my computer again

    Hello,
    Every time I sync my iPhone 4S or iPad 1 with iTunes I am asked to authorize my computer again knowing that I have 2 Apple accounts and both of them are already authorized.
    Tks for your help

    Plug your phone up to your computer in itunes... click on devices, then your iphone, at the top of your itunes, beside of summary you will see photos, click on photos... untick or uncheck the albums you don't want on your device then sync... you can do the same for vidoes, music etc...

  • Every time I sync my iphone 4 with itunes my ring custom ring tones change.  I have 7 custom ring tones in itunes.  One time it will load 1 custom ring tone the next it may be 3 then the next it is one again.  The last time it gave me 4 of the 7.

    Every time I sync my iPhone 4 with iTunes the number of my custom ring tones change.  I have 7 custom ring tones listed.   The first time it will load 1 of the ring tones and the next time it will load 3,  The next time it will be back to 1.  If I have assigned one of the custom ring tones and it does not get loaded it goes back to the ring tone that came with the phone.  The last time itunes gave me 4 of the 7 so I have not tried to sync it again.  I am using iTunes 10 (10.4.10), and windows 7.
    Has anyone else had this problem??
    Any ideas to what I need to do??

    Have you ever had all 7 of them synced before? Are these ringtones you made yourself? Is there a chance they could exceed 30 seconds in length? Is there a chance you have moved the original file location on the computer? May need the answers to a couple more questions to try and determine an answer.

  • Every time I sync my iPhone with iPhoto I end up getting duplicate photos on my iPhone. The other problem is that I can not delete the dups on my iPhone.   Does anyone have an answer to this problem?

    Mike whether I create a folder within the Pictures Folder that iTunes uses to sync photographs or just copy them into the main folder the result is the same, I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
    The User Manual for iOS5 states ...
    You can create, rename, and delete albums on iPhone to help you organize your photos and videos.
    Create a album: When viewing albums, tap Edit, then tap Add. Select photos to add to the new album, then tap Done. Note: Albums created on iPhone aren’t synced back to your computer.
    Rename an album Tap Edit, then select an album.
    Rearrange albums Tap Edit, then drag up or down.
    Delete an album Tap Edit, then tap the delete sign.
    Yes I can Add a new Album, but cannot delete an album already created. The delete sign does not appear.
    In iTunes the only folder that I can see listed is the man one into which iTunes stores pictures, which I have named iPhone Photos.
    When I look on my PC this iPhone Photos folder contains another folder named iPod Photo Cache and a multitude of folders created by iTunes, the named F00, F01,F02 etc etc. and a Photo Database file.
    Now whether I create a seperate folder within iPhone Photos to store my favourite photos in, or just copy them all into the iPhone Photos folder without being encased within another folder, or create a folder inside the iPod Photo Cache folder the result is the same ...
    I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
    I am going around in ever decreasing circles here and getting nowhere fast!! 

  • Every time I sync my Iphone 5c(with ios 8) to Itunes, it 1. deletes all of my purchased music 2. deletes all of my album artwork 3. replaces all of my deleted songs. please help! this is driving me crazy!

    Every time I sync my Iphone 5c(with ios 8) to Itunes, it 1. deletes all of my purchased music 2. deletes all of my album artwork 3. replaces all of my deleted songs. please help! this is driving me crazy! It syncs 100+ songs, when I only want to sync 1! I'm running Itunes 11.3.1.2

    After having experienced similar problems and having it back to work, I have a few suggestions:
    - Try to find out if the syncing stops at a particular track or song. That might - out of the blue - have gotten corrupted in one way or another. Since that song will not be on the iPod, iTunes will try over and over to put it on and crash in one way or another;
    - reformat the iPod as described in the iTunes 9 crash-thread. It takes time (at first it seems to do nothing, but that is because the green bar is moving with very small steps);

  • ?Every time I sync my iPhone I end up with another set of pictures instead of just the new ones? Why?

    ? Every time I sync my iPhone I transfer photos to my iPhoto but, it doesn't just take the new ones, it copies everything over and over! What am I doing wrong?

    Check your prefs in iPhoto.

  • IOS 7 messes up my libraries and playlists every time I sync with iTunes!!

    Every time I sync my iphone with my itunes I end up missing music from my device, even the one bought at the itunes store with my device. I can recover it from my itunes library but for god's sake this is annoying!!! EVERY TIME!!!
    I tried to contact support but they want to charge me for the event because they are tying it either to my computer or my iphone and both are more than 1 year old. What is this??? I didn't ask for you to chagne my device's iOS to v.7 which is a piece of crap! And iOS7 is less than a year old as well as Maveriks!!! Where is Apple's guarantee that its products will work??
    I hope someone can help me with this problem becasue, obviously, the company that manufactures these products and these devices is not willing to. I MISS STEVE JOBS and the old Apple!! When they cared about their costumers.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    msteinny,
    So i went to the apple store to meet with an apple genius to ask him why my phone's time kept moving up 1 hour everytime I synced my phone. Well he said that he's never seen this problem before, and after a trying a reset and restore he let me exchange my phone. The problem is that when I went to sync my new phone the problem still persisted. They told me it was probably something to do with my computer and its time zone settings.
    So I get home and click on my computers clock in the bottom right hand corner to bring up the date and time properties and sure enought my time is correct, the date is correct and the time zone is correct (Eastern Daylight Time). So I look through the different tabs (Date & Time, Time Zone, Internet Time). The first thing I tried to do was to change where my computer syncs its internet time. It was originaly set on NIST time. I then switched it to Windows time, but this didn't do anything. My clock would still change when I synced to itunes. The next thing I tried was fideling around in the Time Zone tabs. I noticed that the box that says "Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings" was unchecked, so I checked it and my computer's time jumped an hour ahead. So I left the box checked but moved my clock one hour back (to the correct time), clicked on apply and left it at that. I synced my iPhone and voila! The time didn't change! It stayed on the correct time! To to make a long story short, make sure that you computer's clock is set on "automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes, make sure your time zone is correct, and that the time is right when that box is checked. I hope this helps you. I'm glad I got a new phone out of the deal;)

  • Time/date on my iPhone changes every time I sync with iTunes - any fix?

    Hi All,
    Every time I sync my phone with my computer, the time and date on my phone changes - it goes to one week behind, and about 10 hours earlier than it actually is. My computer calendar has the right time (NYC time zone), the calendar support settings on my iPhone are set to NYC time zone - what could be happening? Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • Duplicates in iphoto every time i sync with my iphone

    When you sync the iPad, do you have mail settings configured to sync to the iPad? You could have different settings on your computer that might be affecting the email set up on the iPad when you sync.

  • How do I stop the "other" data from growing every time I sync my iPhone?

    I recently started putting music on my iPhone 4s, and I found that every time I sync music, the "other" storage keeps growing. This only happens when I sync music. If I don't have music on my iPhone, the "other" doesn't grow. Why is this?? Does anyone know how to make this stop? I had to restore my phone as new to delete the "other" storage (I had almost 3 G on my 8 G iPhone). Because the "other" data takes up so much room, I find it difficult to add everything that I want to on my iPhone (like all of my music). Please help!

    Hello brownielox,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1503
    Resolution
    Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
    Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
    Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
    Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
    Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
    Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
    Restore using iTunes.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario
