Dont have permission to download to my Mac

I can not buy anything on iTunes because it says I don't have permission?? For my own computer??

You are not addressing Apple here.  We are all itunes users just like you.
You  may not want to leave your e-mail on a public forum.
You get one download only.  It is your responsibility to backup your movies.

  • HT4623 I dont have permission to download ios6 why?

  • When connecting my external hardrive to my mac, I can't copy files onto it or off of it. It gives me the message 'the operation cant be complete because you dont have permission to access some of the items' It has also been formatted to a mac.

    It gives me the message 'the operation cant be complete because you dont have permission to access some of the items'
    I tried to even format it to a mac to use it with time machine but it is saying i dont have ownership. I am gettin really frustrated with this, please help

    Then use a proper backup application. 
    Periodically using drag & drop isn't very reliable or complete, and backing-up your entire system is much better than just some selected data.  When your internal HD fails (they all do, sooner or later) or something else awful happens, reinstalling everything can be a very large, tedious, and error-prone process.  Among other things, 3rd-party apps will have to be reinstalled from the original discs or re-downloaded, and purchase keys or serial numbers re-entered.
    You already have Time Machine -- it's built-in to OSX, and very easy to use.  You might want to review the Time Machine Tutorial, and perhaps browse Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    And/or, you can use a 3rd-party "cloning" application such as SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner.   See Time Machine vs. Clones and Archives for an overview of the differences.

  • Refusing to download because I dont have permission to access some of data

    when I am prompted to move icon to app folder the replace window pops up and when I hit the yes key another popup tells me I dont have permission to access some of the data

    If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or if you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • I am trying to update my ipad to OIs 7 but I get a message "Dont have permission to access the requested resource"

    I am trying to update my ipad to OIS 7 but I get a message " Dont have permission to access the requested resource"
    I am the administrator of my PC
    Please help

    You have to have the correct generation of iPad or have the iPad Mini to be able to download the current operating system.  Considering the number of glitches that are appearing I would go ahead and be thankful you're back there.

  • Itunes library.itl is locked, on locked disk or you dont have permission 4.

    itunes library.itl is locked, on locked disk or you dont have permission 4.
    i tried the other suggestions and i cant get rid of this message.
    can anyobdy help?

    I had that problem too. I tried to remove iTunes from my computer and then download it again, but that did not make any difference. Then I tried polydorus' answer ("starting iTunes with the shift key held down, when asked to choose a library, navigate to your iTunes folder and choose iTunes Library.itl"), but that did not work either and that same message about the library being locked appeared again.
    Then I had a brainwave. I deleted that iTunes library.itl file. (To find it, go to My documents, then My Music, then iTunes, and there is the itunes library file). I now tried to open iTunes by clicking on the iTunes icon on my desktop, nothing happened, as if I had not clicked on it at all. I restored the file from the recycling bin to where it was before. But that also returned me to where I had been before, i.e. I got that locked-library message again. So I deleted that file again. Then I tried right-clicking on the iTunes icon. On the little menu that appeared, I clicked 'Open' and hey presto, suddenly the iTunes set-up assistant appeared and everything went smooth from then on. When I checked, there was a file called iTunes library.itl again and this one worked OK.
    By the way, I did not lose any of my music downloads or podcasts when I deleted that file, so it's definitely worth a try.

  • Error: items cant be copied to desktop, bc you dont have permission to read

    I am trying to install an adobe program via cd installation. I have a macbook air. I am using pc's cd drive through the network.
    I contacted Adobe support and they told me to copy all the contents of the installation disk onto my Mac desktop, then install.
    The Setup folder from the installation disk will not copy from the network drive to my Mac desktop.
    I get this error: "Items can't be copied to desktop because you dont have permission to read them."
    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks for the help, Jeff.
    Everything seemed to transfer properly. A few files were read-only and would not transfer.
    But, my mac is stuck at the intial installer load-up. The small window says "Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection Installer: Initializing" -- "Checking System Profile"
    The loading bar on the screen has not moved in 30 minutes. I canceled the install and started over, but the same thing happens again.
    Would the install have a better chance of working if I bought an external CD drive?

    Im using os x 10.5.8 so I dont have the app store on my mac, how can I update my os x software without the app store?
    Can I download it online?

    Nope.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455 explains how to get 10.6.6 to get the App Store.
    Only upgrade to 10.7 or later if you are prepared:

  • The operation cant be completed because you dont have permission to access some of the items

    First of all sorry if my gammar isnt the best, as I suffer for Dylexia and spell and gammar check isnt that good yet!
    Has anyone ran into the same issue when copying files to a network share or removable drive where you have full access over and you get a good old error message
    "operation cant be completed because you dont have permission to access some of the items" or and apple random number code that you need to good (so much for a good gui with having to google for the number codes!)
    It really annoyes me as no matter what operating system you use it never outputs a reports to inform what "items" it has issues with and there locations so you can copy them manually.
    its not too bad when its a few items but when it is 50 or so items in several folders you are copying and the os decedes it doesnt like you and makes up an poor error message such as the one above I really want to throw it out the window...
    I have check for premissions on the destination and all are ok .
    i have also check and none of the files are locked or read only.
    I am sure I am not the only one who want the OS to explain what file and its location caused the issue.
    Does anyone know the fix or uses tools that bypass the os annoying errors.
    As the folder I have been trying to copy has only copied 348 of the 1591 files across.
    Thanks for the help!

  • "File cant be opened because you dont have permission to use it"

    Im suddenly getting this message on all the photos stored in my computer:  "File cant be opened because you dont have permission to use it"   If I click on 'Get Info' for pics, the "Sharing and Permissions" doesnt open either.  Im OS X 10.7.3   Help!

    Repairing the permissions of a home folder in Lion is a complicated procedure. I don’t know of a simpler one that always works.
    Launch the Terminal application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. If that doesn’t work, then in the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    Drag or copy – do not type – the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    chmod -R -N ~
    You may see a few error messages about an “invalid argument” while the command is running. You can ignore those. If you get an error message with the words “Permission denied,” enter this:
    sudo !!
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
    Next, boot from your recovery partition by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the recovery desktop appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

    I'm not sure what you're asking.  Are you writing a program that results in the error when you test it?  (This is the developer forum).
