Error when trying to authorize new computer to play a song
Hello,
i just transferred all my songs from one computer to the next, as well as my husbands music. everytime we try to play a song that is associated with his apple id, i get the error "We could not complete your itunes store request. An unknown error ocurred (-50). There was an error in the itunes stores. Please try again later"
Any ideas?
Not really, other than trying at a really inconvenient time when most people are asleep, such as 4AM USA Pacific when the Apple servers are probably not busy.
edit- tell me, are you able to go to the store and download a free single of the week?

get this message when trying to authorize my computer. This apple id has not bee used with the itunes store.
Do i have to purchase something, before i can authorize my computer.Thank you in advance for any answers received.You cannot buy anything from the iTunes Store until you authorize the computer. Are you unable to authorize it? If so see the following:
Authorization
Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7. -
Can't authorize new computer to play my music or download them onto my ipod
Hi everyone,
I'm new to the forum. I seem to be having trouble authorizing my new computer to play my songs, and to also download them onto my ipod. It will download some but not all. The problem that I am having is: when I try to play a song, the authorization pops up and asks me to authorize using my old email address, and password. Well since I can't remember my old password and I no longer use my old email address, I can't authorize my new computer to play songs. So someone Please come to my rescue. I have tried everything.

I bought song with itunes card. The song won't play on my computer or devices. The messages says I need to authorize my computer to play the song. However, when I "authorize" my computer I get message that this computer is already authorized.
and, what is even more strange...
I actually bought 2 Billy Joel songs NY State of Mind from Essential Billly Joel and Italian Restaurant from Greatist Hits vol 1. Neither song would play.
I went back the Apple store and tried to re-download NYSOM. It let me do it for free. Before I checked I tried to re-dowload IR but inadvertantly selected same song but from The Stranger. I had to pay for this one. The re-downloaded NYSOM still didn't work but IR I bought from Stranger worked. So, I bought NYSOM from Greatest Hits vol 1. Didn't work!!! Tried again and bought from another album, Turnstiles, and that one worked. So, I bought 5 songs, only 2 of which will work.
So, now I ask - is there any way to get my money back? -
I recently purchased a song on my iphone. When I synced my phone to my computer, I was prompted to authorize the computer to play the song, which I did. It did not compute and thus when I try to play the song in iTunes on my Macbook Pro, I keep getting prompted to authorize the computer. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it? I also cannot play the song now from my iPhone. I even tried re-downloading it from the iTunes store and that did not help.
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. -
Authorize this computer to play iTunes songs not working so well
I've downloaded a few of the "Free" songs from the iTunes Store and later when I go to listen to them I get a window to log in and authorize my computer to play the song. Problem is, I am logged in. And even if I log in again, I then get a message that says my computer is already authorized.
Now the fun part. Sometimes after I log in again the song will start playing. Other times, no luck.
I have tried restarting the computer and iTunes and neither seems to improve the problem. I also recently updated iTunes to version 8.0.1.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
TJSeveral users have reported this issue since the release of iTunes 8. Some are able to sort out the problem temporarily by restarting iTunes, or by restarting the computer. I'd suggest the section of this document regarding removing the SC Info folder:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
Beyond that, it doesn't hurt to report the issue to iTunes Store customer service:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/browser/
Chef_206,
I think you might be experiencing something different, which is actually more or less expected behavior of iTunes. In your iTunes program, click your Store menu at the top and choose View my Account. Enter your account info, and when you get to the Apple Account Info page you should see a button that says "Deauthorize All." Click this button, which deauthorizes all computers (whether they be 5 tangible machines, or one machine taking up several authorizations) and then go back and see if you can authorize your desired computer(s).

I bought an album and all the songs play except for the first one. It keeps telling me to authorize my computer to play this song. None of the above helped me. Is there any other solution?

If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...

Error when trying to activate new valuation area - AU158
Hi,
I´m getting an error when trying to activate a new valuation area by using AFBN transaction. I get a message that says "Closed fiscal years for areas 01 and 08 differ by more than 1 year" (AU158).
Then the system recomends me to check the settings of the depreciation areas for the closed fiscal years since the closed fiscal years of the areas are not allowed to more than 1 years apart.
When I check the settings in transaction OAAR what I see is: area 01 - 2010 and area 08 (newest) - 2008 fiscal year is assigned.
How can I close area 08? Will I need reopen the 01 area until 2008 fiscal year?
How can I create the new area with the same fiscal year closing?
TksYear end closing--AJAB
FY Change---AJRW
If you open FY 2008, then you can create new depreciation area through AFBN.
I guess this depreciation area doesn't generate any postings and this is only for reporting purpose. -
Error when trying to activate new valuation area.
Hello forum,
I´m getting an error when trying to activate a new valuation area by using AFBN transaction. I get a message that says "Closed fiscal years for areas 01 and 10 differ by more than 1 year".
Then the system recomends me to check the settings of the depreciation areas for the closed fiscal years since the closed fiscal years of the areas are not allowed to more than 1 years apart.
But when I check the settings in transaction OAAR what I see is that same fiscal year is assigned to all the areas.
I don´t understand why the system is showing me this error then...How can I ensure all areas to be in the same fiscal year.
Thanks in advanceHi,
Do you have other company codes which are using the same Chart of Depreciation? Please check these company codes and perform fiscal year change to them.
It seems that the problem is related to note 421549 : the system tries
to check the entries for field T093B-ABGJA for all the entries,not
only for the relevant company code. If there's a difference of more
than 1 fiscal year between the last closed fiscal year for the area
you are trying to create, and one of the entries in T093B, then,
error AU 158 arises."
Because according to the note 421549: the system tried to check the entries for field for ALL THE ENTRIES,not only for the relevant company code.
If there's a difference of more than 1 fiscal year between the last closed fiscal year for the area you are trying to create, and one of the entries in T093B, then, error AU 158 arises.

Error when trying to authorize computer
I keep getting an error message when I try to authorize my computer. This is especially confusing since I thought I'd already authorized it. I downloaded a couple TV episodes and watched one a few days ago. Today I try to watch my new one and it asks me to authorize it. It gives me an error message. I try again and again. I reboot and still I get an error message. It says: We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-42408).
What does this mean and how do I fix it? I want to watch these episodes I paid for!An unknown error occurred (-42408).
With that one, upgrading to iTunes 9.1.1.12 is worth a crack, as per:
