Error message when attempting to activate Genius

I am trying to use Genius, but get the error message: This person record must be harvested, when logging in. Does anyone know what that means? And how to address it so I can log on? Thanks

Hi Dawn and welcome to Apple Discussions ...
You shouldn't have to log on to the Genius Sidebar.
Select a song in your library and click the Genius button at the bottom of the iTunes window. The button is at the bottom right side of the window with a black arrow in it. That turns the Genius Sidebar off and on... like a toggle switch.
Here are other things you can do:
To change the maximum number of songs in in a playlist, choose a number from the “Limit to” pop-up menu.
To save a playlist, click Save Playlist. You can add and remove items from a saved Genius playlist.
To get new songs for a Genius playlist (basing it on the same song), click Refresh.
While listening to Party Shuffle, choose Genius as the source (under Playlists) to create a Genius playlist that refreshes itself automatically.
Turning on Genius also displays the Genius sidebar, which shows items related to the selected song but not in your library. Use the sidebar to preview and download new music from the iTunes Store.
To turn off Genius, choose Store > Turn Off Genius.
If you need more help, post back...
Carolyn

    Error message when attempting to use scanner Canon model MP610, any one have any fixes, suggestions?

    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, empty trash, reboot when complete.
    For the other problems...
    See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...

    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
    In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?

    Error message when attempting to back up iPod to iTunes, no number given. No previous back ups as a new user, current iTunes software and iPod iOS.

    The issue you are experiencing is with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    I understand that you have already uninstalled iTunes, but when you get to this step, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step. 

  • Why do I get an error message when attempting to download music into a project in Ellements 13?

    Why do I get an error message when attempting to download music into a project in Ellements 13?

    cornman30
    What computer operating system?
    And, where is the music coming from, iTunes? If so, that is a known problem with Premiere Elements (just about any version).
    The answer has been to convert the iTunes music to the wav version in iTunes.
    The following is the iTunes' document how to.

    Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
    If other than above, please supply more details to help us help you.

  • I am receiving the following error message when attempting to text to a valid mobile/cell number in Peru.

    I am receiving the following error message when attempting to text to a valid Mobile/Cell number in Peru...Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code.
    I am able to receive texts from the number in question, but not able to text back to the person sending.
    The number is a valid 9 digit cell/mobile number.

    If you're sending as SMS (green bubble) then this is a carrier issue and not an issues with your phone.
    To text internationally, you nearly always need to include the country code before the rest of the phone number. If you are doing so and still have issues, contact your carrier.

  • TS3212 I have removed my pop-up blocker completely and still receive the following error message when attempting to download iTunes:  "The file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher".....any ideas?

    have removed my pop-up blocker completely and still receive the following error message when attempting to download iTunes:  "The file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher".....any ideas?

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    There are several threads about the 0xFFFE7958 error. So far there is no answer for the problem. I have contacted iTunes support twice about the problem and other than "we will get back to you..." I have received no support. The best part is that they charged me for this. How about a refund or something?

  • Keep getting error message when attempting to buy a song (Error 5002)

    This error message seems to pop up with just this one song (says there is an issue with the iTunes store and that it is an unknown error) and it has not changed this status for a month now. I have the latest iTunes and there were no problems in updating/getting other songs from the store.
    So what's up?
    Thanks,
