Don't understand computer authorization

I bought toy story and then burned a copy for my mac, so i could sync it with my iphone for the kids. i also put it on my home computer to sync with my wife's iphone. but i'm getting a message that i have to authorize the computer to play it. why? i didn't buy it from itunes. can someone explain to me why this is happening? I don't understand how authorizations work.

I have this same problem. When I sync my ipod I get the message that my purchased songs etc. will not be synced because this computer is not authorized. So I authorized the computer and it tells me the computer is already authorized. So what to do?
I just downloaded 10.x because apparently the 8.x had problems that I just figured was related to the installation have not used my pod for almost a year. Everything else is fine just not getting these songs.
We need help.

It would be helpful if you could reply with the specific wording of the error message you are getting. If it's too difficult to type out, you could try to capture a screen shot of it. This article has tips on doing that: [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Also, I found this test page on Pogo's site where they tell you whether your browser meets their requirements. Could you view this page and see whether you get green checkmarks for all the items? If not, we might be able to help you get what you need for full compatibility:

I found the solution in another post. By deleting all my apps, I was able to sync the phone. I hope I don't have to delete all my apps every time I want to sync my phone, but at least now I am able to sync my phone.

Hi MAX22,
Even though it's your computer but your user account might not have sufficient privileges to install the software.
Please try the following :
> Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/ )
Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.

TS1389 iTunes asks for computer authorization, I tried all the steps in this article and it still will not play the song purchased. What else can be done. I have a MacBook Pro with Lion OS

The itunes software repeats its request for computer authorization despite trying the steps mentioned in the
help article: authorizing from admin account, checking for updates, deleting sc folder, what else can be done?

Doublechecking. In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you also worked through the instructions from the following document?
iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization

Laptop-Vista-Moz Fifx won't work-says something about proxy server? Computer Challenged so I don't understand.

I am computer challenged so I don't understand this. When I try to download Mozilla Firefox on my laptop it tells me that firefox uses a proxy server and won't complete the download. I don't like IE, and do like Mozilla Firefox and have used it for a long time on my desk top. If someone could tell me what to do to make it work I really would appreciate this.
This is on a laptop, not this computer

Are you trying to do this while on a corporate wifi or over home wifi/cellular?

HT1420 I don't have the 'Authorize this computer' button.....

So, I am trying to Authorize my new computer on itunes and I don't have the Authorize this Computer button. I have iTunes version 10.6. Can someone please help me out here?

It should be on the Store drop-wodn menu at the top of iTunes e.g.

I am sorry but I don't understand how to delete photos from my Iphone that were sys from a computer.

I just don't understand how to delete photos from my Iphone placed there by Syc.

Well, if they were synced fomr a computer then the iPhone says the computer "owns" them for instructional purposes. You have two options.
1) Plug your iPhone up to any computer with iTunes. You can get itunes at www.itunes.com Then tell it to sync photos, but then select no photos or an empty folder. This will override what the previous computer put on your iPhone.
2) Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings and say goodbye to everything including those synced photos. If you make a quick backup first in iCloud (be sure it finishes) then you can restore form your iCloud backup via Wifi and those synced photos wont be there.

I don't understand why recently with the new "pages" my computer stops responding. When I go to fix some grammar all of a sudden the little colored circle begins to appear and won't go away I restart my computer.

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful.

Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.

Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.
The above is what the bar says. It's been a while and wondered, maybe Apple changed the format for forums. Then got this nice big blank canvas to air my concerns. Went to school for Computer Science, BSEE, even worked at Analog Devices in Newton Massachusetts, where they make something for apple.
The bottom line is fast CPU = more FPU = more headroom and still can't figure out why the more cores= the slower it gets unless it's to get us in to a 6 core then come out with faster cores down the road or a newer Mac that uses the GPU. Also. Few. I'm the guy who said a few years ago Mac has an FCP that looks like iMovie on Steroids. Having said that I called the campus one day to ask them something and while I used to work for Apple, I think she thought I still did as she asked me, "HOW ARE THE 32 CORES/1DYE COMING ALONG? Not wanting to embarrass her I said fine, fine and then hung up. Makes the most sense as I never quite got the 2,6,12 cores when for years everything from memory to CPU's have been, in sets of 2 to the 2nd power. 2,4,8,16,32,64,120,256,512, 1024, 2048,4196,8192, 72,768. Wow. W-O-W and will be using whatever I get with Apollo Quad.
Peace to all and hope someone can point us in THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THANK YOU

Thanks for your reply via email/msg. He wrote:
If you are interested in the actual design data for the Xeon processor, go to the Intel site and the actual CPU part numbers are:

Xeon 6 core - E5.1650v2

Xeon 12 core - E5.2697v2
I read that the CPU is easy to swap out but am sure something goes wrong at a certain point - even if solderedon they make material to absorb the solder, making your work area VERY clean.
My Question now is this, get an 8 core, then replace with 2 3.7 QUAD CHIPS, what would happen?
I also noticed that the 8 core Mac Pro is 3.0 when in fact they do have a 3.4 8 core chip, so 2 =16? Or if correct, wouldn't you be able to replace a QUAD CHIP WITH THAT? I;M SURE THEY ARE UO TO SOMETHING AS 1) WE HAVE SEEN NO AUDIO FPU OR PERHAPS I SHOULD CHECK OUT PC MAKERS WINDOWS machines for Sisoft Sandra "B-E-N-C-H-M-A-R-K-S" -
SOMETHINGS UP AND AM SURE WE'LL ALL BE PLEASED, AS the mac pro was announced Last year, barely made the December mark, then pushed to January, then February and now April.
Would rather wait and have it done correct than released to early only to have it benchmarked in audio and found to be slower in a few areas- - - the logical part of my brain is wondering what else I would have to swap out as I am sure it would run, and fine for a while, then, poof....
PEACE===AM SURE APPLE WILL BLOW US AWAY - they have to figure out how to increase the power for 150 watts or make the GPU work which in regard to FPU, I thought was NVIDIA?

I don't understand my EtreCheck report. What can I do to improve the speed of my Macbook 2010, which became very slow after upgrading to Yosemite?

I just updated my Macbook (2010) to Yosemite, and it's become very slow. After searching through this community, I downloaded and run EtreCheck, but don't understand what the report means. Please could you help me with what I should do to improve my computer's speed, aside from upgrading my RAM? Thank you so much.

I advise to reply to the one you want to reply to.
You have had good information here. I will not repeat that here.
I would like to add:
you have incompatible software: start in SafeMode, read Woodmeister and see if it is free of issues.
Akamai is crap software needed or not, Huawei the same.
It is very possible that the keygenerator you used for generating a key for some softwares has infected your mac.
The non-regular software with the false key(s) are not compatible probably or generate malware. Luckily you can not update them automatically because the keygenerator blocked the software for contacting the developer... I propose to consider getting rid of those softwares by really good uninstalling.
You have a beautiful mac, don't degenerate it with crapped software. There are alternatives for expensive software, for example Adobe Photoshop has a free alternative (with a less beautiful interface) in GIMP. And so on.

Why is this an error??? I don't understand why it is... Help Please

Hi,
Ok, I'll preface this by saying there's a lotta code pasted in here but it really quite an easy question, I just need to post all the code so you understand where what came from.
Now.............the question I'm trying to do is to create an applet that has 2 buttons -- each button when clicked opens an application (one is a simple calculator, the other a Mortgage calculation app). When you click one of the buttons (calc or mortgage), that app opens infront of the 2 button menu so its in "focus". The button on the 2 button menu then switches to a "hide app X" button (ie: "Mortgage", changes to "Hide Mortgage"). Thus if you click the hide button, the app that was opened is hidden, and then that "hide" button switches back to the original "app X" button. Pretty simple.
Now, I have from my text book an example that does exactly this, with the simple calculator already in it, and with another app (a traffic light thing) where the Mortgage should be in my final product. I also already have the Mortgage applet I need to insert from another book example in place of that Traffic Light portion.
Now, common sense would dictate that I should be able to just copy my code for the Mortgage applet into the example that has the 2 button menu structure, and overwrite the code I want to get rid of (the traffic light) with the mortgage code & rename the menu buttons. Right?? A simple switch of one thing for another... but therein lies my problem.
I copied all the Mortgage code in correctly over the traffic lights, switched the button names, tried to compile it but I get one error....
Exercise12_17.java:52: cannot resolve symbol

        mortgageAppletFrame.pack();I don't understand why..... mortgageAppletFrame.pack(); was a simple rewrite from lightsFrame.pack(); like every other line...... it should work. I've gone over it for 2 days......... Anyone know why it comes up as an error???
Below, in order going down is (1)my code with the 1 error I can't solve, (2)the original menu example I tried to edit, and (3)the Mortgage app code...........
Does anyone know what my error is?? Help or a hint would be greatly appreciated........ Thanks.

Does it have to be an applet?
If you want the same behaviour as in the code with traffic lights, change
class MortgageApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
to
class MortgageApplet extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
and change
public void init() {
to
public MortgageApplet() {

When I plug in my panasonic videocamera iMovie doesn't recognize the videocamera (iPhoto does). I did the same operations several times in the past, I don't understand because is not working anymore...please

I don't understand why iPhoto recognize the pictrures in the videocamera and iMovie doesn't recognize the videos and the videocamera.
I see all the pictures taken in iPhoto but I can't see any video in iMovie because I don't see the videocamera in iMovie.
I did the same operation several times in the past and always worked it out, with USB connection, I've tryed to restart the computer, to turn on and off the camera, to change cable, to change MAC: always the same problem!
Please is anybody so kind to help me ? Thank you!

hi dlpmaster!
So, when it updates the program is working but then it sort of freezes. Then unfreezes and then again..
hmmm. what antivirus applications are you using?
as an experiment, does the freezing behavior still occur if you disable the antivirus prior to plugging your ipod in?
love, b

Don't understand computer authorization
