There was an error storing your authorization information on this computer.
The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed
Any suggestions?

  • Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

    Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

    Unfortunately you can't do the logical and convenient thing of authorizing a computer with multiple Adobe IDs that are active simultaneously.
    You can authorize accounts from different vendors; one account per vendor.
    If you have multiple operating system users set up on the computer,  you can register different OS users as different Adobe Account users.

  • TS1389 i have windows 8 and cant authorize my account to transfer my icloud/iphone purchases to this computer. authorize computer is not part of the store. what do i do next?

    I have windows 8 and can't authorize my account to transfer my icloud/iphone tunes to my computer. i dont seem to be able to do this from the store as it is not on the menu. my options when i click on my account are limited to stopping all devises and do not include adding a new device- i only have 4 associated with the apple id account. this is all so frustrating. HELP!

    Press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

  • HT1206 my other computers have fried or have been broken. so how am i supposed to deauthorize those computers if i cant even turn them on? and why is there a maximum to how many computers i can authorize my account to?

    why cant i authorize my account to this computer? i cant turn on my other computers with this account authorized because they were fried and broken so how am i supposed to deauthorize those computers?

    "why cant i authorize my account to this computer?"
    No idea, as you have not explained your problem.  What happens when you try to authorize it?
    " i cant turn on my other computers with this account authorized because they were fried and broken so how am i supposed to deauthorize those computers?"
    You cannot until you reach the limit of 5, then you can deauthorize all.

    If you have exceeded your allowance of 5 machines then Apple will not allow you to authorise additional Computers. If you still have access to your old toshiba fire it up de-authorise it and then try again with the new computer.
    While this won't help if you are having password problems, I did want to point out that you do not need to access old machines to de-authorize them. Once you are signed in at the iTunes store, access "my account" by clicking on your username in the top navigation bar. Then "manage devices".  You can remove any old machines that way.

  • How can i authorize two accounts onto my mac???

    I recently bought a new mac which asked me to authorize an itunes account. Thing is i have two itunes accounts that both have data on my ipod. I authorized one account onto my new mac but it wont let me authorize the second one! I already went to "VIEW ACCOUNT->AUTHORIZATIONS" and that doesnt give me the option to authorize the other account. Okay now on one account, which is the one currently authorized on my computer, only has three songs, so if it is not possible to authorize both accounts how can i just remove that account and just use my main itunes account! BTW i have already de authorized and reauthorized but i just cant get itune to authorize my main account. I am not exceeding my available devices.
    I appreciate any help. Thanx

    You have to sign out from one account and sign in with the other to authorize your computer for the second account.  Then your computer will be authorized for both accounts.

  • I'm trying to play a song and itunes is repeatly asking me to authorize the account.  I have authorized the account and it will not play one particular song.  What should I do?

    I'm trying to play a song and itunes is repeatly asking me to authorize the account.  I have authorized the account and it will not play one particular song.  What should I do?

    If just one song on an album is doing that, that suggests the track is damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • 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. 
    iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder

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

  • What does "Authorize External Account" mean

    I just had to send my notebook back to apple for repair. I was able to borrow a neighbors notebook for a few days (boy do I owe him big for that!).
    Before I shipped it, I made a clone on an external FW800 drive, and boot his machine off that external drive, then unmount his internal HD to "keep it safe".
    My question is this: Every time I restart, I get a dialog at the login screen that's titled "Authorize External Account", which says
    Allow the external account, "<his userID>" from disk "<internal HD>" to access this computer?
    What exactly does that mean. What happens if I say "yes" or "no" here?
    TIA for any advice!
    Steve

    This feature is proving incredibly annoying in a large education environment setting.
    Our macs are dual partitioned with students authenticating via active directory.
    Heres the scenario.
    When a student logs out from partition 1 and leaves the mac the next student to attempt to log onto partition 2 recieves the following dialog.
    Allow the external account, "<previous user's userID>" from disk "<internal HD>" to access this computer?
    A potential breach of privacy as the students can find out who was using the mac last.
    Has anyone found a way to disable this feature?

  • Dell Inspiron won't allow me to authorize my account?

    Dell Inspiron won't allow me to authorize my account. There is no buttton that says authorize account. My apple ID goes through, but if I try to listen to my music (not downloaded yet), a pop-up will say I must authorize my computer. I have only authorized two other computers, so that isn't the problem. Please Help?

    i did this, no luck yet.

  • ACS - ASA Authorization and Accounting

    Hi
    I have some questions regarding authorization and accounting on ASA via ACS server
    when I enable the command "aaa authorization       command " to control SSH users commands  I get locked out on       console then i have to configure the console , telnet , and enable to be       authenticated via tacacs too , is there any way to authorize SSH via       tacacs while keeping Console and telnet authenticated locally or even no       authentication ?
    i issued  accounting command "aaa accounting       command TAC" on ASA but i noticed that the ACS just logs commands in       configuration mod "privilege 15 " not any show command or       privilege 1 , is there any way to fix this ?
    does RADIUS support SHELL authorization ?
    thanks for your support

    1.] Unfortunately, there currently isn't any way to exclude command authorization from the  serial/ console or ssh users while having it apply to other access methods in case of ASA. Once you issue this command, it would be applicable for ALL methods like ssh,telnet,enable,http and console. This can be easily achieved in IOS (routers and switches) by creating a method list.
    2.] When you configure the aaa accounting command command, each command other than  show commands entered by an administrator is recorded and sent to the accounting server or servers. This is a default behaviour on ASA. IOS does send/record all show commands on ACS/Tacacs.
