Unlock iTunes / get write permission

Wanted to upload some songs from my iTunes Library to new Nano.
Hooked it up, went through the promps, choose two playlists to load, and before we could say oops, we saw that it was infact loading the entire library. We had no way of stopping the process so we unplugged it.
Now when I try to open iTunes it I get an error message :"The iTunes Library file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file."
I verified permissions and repaired them. No luck.
Help! Please!

  • I can't log into my iTunes account. I logger out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. Now when i press sign in and then choose existing Apple ID, nothing happens

    I can't log into my iTunes account on my iPhone 5s. I logged out a few days ago to trouble shoot because I was trying to redeem some iTunes cards but when i pressed redeem nothing happened. I then tried to log back in immediately afterwards. I was unable to do so. After clicking "sign in" at the bottom of the apps main page, it brought up another menu where I clicked "Choose existing Apple ID". After pressing this the menu disappeared and nothing happened. I tried this multiple times and received the same result each time. I tried the other available option of creating a new AP ID to log in with and that one worked perfectly fine. I am clueless as to why the log in for me is either not able to load or just completely blocking me from getting back into my iTunes account on my phone. Not only can I not listen to the music I currently have, but I cannot log in to purchase the new music that I wanted to with my unused iTunes gift cards

    I have the same problem too and tried alot of things like time zone , restarting or changing DNS of wifi connection to 8.8.8.8 still nothing happens .. !!
    iPhone 5s, iOS 8.3

  • I have my ITunes account on my home Macbook.  Can I log onto my ITunes account from a different Windows-based computer?

    Yes, but your iTunes library won't automatically show up on a different computer; putting it there is a separate process.

    Good day Goose253501,
    It sounds as though your iPhone is having some difficulty accessing the App Store servers when attempting to sign in. I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    I found the answer on the Internet to check time zone. The time zone was not set to automatically. By fixing the setting problem got resolved.

    Hi Bill!
    If the decrypt went without any interruptions or anything that looked like an error then your computer is probably OK. The fact that none of your accounts can log in leads me to believe you may some corruption somehwere else.
    Find your software installation CD or DVD that came with your Mac or that you purchased in a store and insert it into the drive. You can boot to it by holding down the "C" key at startup.
    After you pass the initial screen for language you'll see the software installation page. Ignore this. Instead look under the menus for Disk Utility. Run Repair Permissions and Repair Disk. Restart and try to log in again.
    If that doesn't work then restart from the disk again and look for the menu option to reset an administrator password. If you can get into just one admin account then you should be able to reset passwords for any others.
    If resetting an admin password doesn't work then I suggest you look into using a third party tool such as DiskWarrior from Alsoft <http://www.alsoft.com>. It is an excellent tool for repairing disk problems. If you have Apple Care then you may have also receieved a CD for TechTool. You can run that as well.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I log into my itunes account to see if my contacts have been saved on my iphone?

    Before I purchase the Iphone 4  I want to be able to Transfer all my contacts, into the new phone.  How do I log into my itunes account and check and see if my contacts are there.... and then will a Sync with the new phone automatically add these contacts into the new phone?
    I have a itunes account but have only accessed while the iphone 3G is plugged in to the laptop.... How do I access the itunes site without the phone plugged into the laptop so that I can CHECK to see if my songs and contacts are really there?

    There are no Contacts in iTunes.
    iTunes syncs the Contacts from Outlook.
    and then will a Sync with the new phone automatically add these contacts into the new phone?
    Yes.

    You don't access the iTunes store to see your music (or anything else)..
    You launch iTunes and your music is there, stored on yoru computer.
    You access the iTunes store to purchase items, which are then downloaded to your computer.

  • Can I log into my iTunes account on any computer

    I am staying with my grandparents for a few weeks. Can I log on to my iTunes account, using their computer (which has iTunes installed for their account) and sync my new iPod with my iTunes account? Thanks. Nik

    No problem, glad that helped.  Just keep in mind, under certain circumstances, signing out of their apple id and in with yours can create a 90 day lockout.

    I believe it's mainly related to itunes match and itunes in the cloud... but I'm not 100% sure.

    Hi, Buster1932.
    I would recommend logging out of your account then logging back in.  If the issue persists, see the article below.

    Hi Jacob-Moeller,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Apple TV can use either an Ethernet or a Wi-Fi connection. When Ethernet is connected, Apple TV automatically defaults to using that connection.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:

  • I can't log in to iTunes Radio on iPhone 4S

    I just updated to iOS7 and tried to log in to iTunes Radio on iPhone 4S. I plug in my username and password and the "loading" screen just spins and never logs in. Works fine on my desktop. Anyone else having issues logging in?

    If I could see the screenshots, then I wouldn't be asking the question. They do not load, so I have no idea what your specific issue is. The image issue is an ongoing issue with the new community support site.
    Not sure if when you indicate you cannot log in, you mean that you simply are not signed into the iTunes Store, or whether you mean you cannot download items which require your password (as the second poster seems to be indicating). So, try the troubleshooting steps below that apply to your situation.
    There are a couple of troubleshooting steps you can try for Error 5002:
    1.     Log out of iTunes on your computer then log back in again to see if that fixes the issue
    2.     Log into your Account in iTunes on your computer and overkey and re-submit your billing info and try again
    3.     Quit and restart iTunes on your computer and try again
    4.     On your device - go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out of your account then sign back in again
    Cheers,
