Get Sign In dialogue every time I launch itunes!

Suddenly I'm getting a dialogue box to sign in every time I launch iTunes. It's very annoying. Does anyone konw why or how to dimiss it. I tired looking in the iTunes preferences and my iTunes account but I can't find any way to make it remember me.

Thank you for your unhelpful reply. I did a search and got nothing form the searach engine.
If you've nothing positive to add (you didn't even bother to paste a link to one of these threads) then don't waste other people's time by posting pointless responses. Maybe you've nothing to do all day but some of us have a life.

Every time I launch iTunes I get message "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (4002)." Anyone know what this is?

Just fixed this on my machine, the easiest way to remove this pop-up assuming you are no longer needing that software to print is the following:
Open Finder
Go > Go To Folder...
Type In: "~/Library/Application Support"
Delete All Folders Named Kodak
Open System Preferences
Go to "Security & Privacy"
Click the lock and enter your admin password
Click the Firewall Tab
Go to "Firewall Options..."
Find KodakAiO
Right-click KodakAiOBonjourAgent or equivalent (I forget the exact name)
Click "Show in Finder"
Go Back to a folder and delete the Kodak Folder there.
Remove Kodak from Firewall Options by selecting it and clicking the " - " button the base of the list.
or
Open Finder
Go > Go To Folder...
Type In: "~/Library/Printers"
Delete All Folders Named Kodak
I'm going off memory, so If I forgot something let me know.

Every time I launch itunes it always asks for password

Every time I launch iTunes it always asks for password. I have no pending downloads or app updates. Nothing. There is no downloads plist to delete, no preferences to set - Fed up wth this. Been searching for answer for months. iTunes Store help just gives the runaround.

Good idea, thanks, but no, that didn't solve it. Any other thoughts?

I've started getting pop-under ads every time I launch Firefox, and the uninstall instructions don't make sense, how can I stop these?

In the past couple of weeks, every time I launch Firefox, a full-size pop-under ad is also launched, regardless of what site I'm browsing.
The original ad was for a You Tube survey, and contains a link to coupondropdown.com, where there's a menu option for uninstalling. The uninstall instructions don't make sense, they don't mention what ad-on is controlling the ads, and I can't work out what's responsible for the ads from my very basic range of ad-ons.
The reason I'm writing is that the ads have progressed from annoying but harmless, to dangerous. The ad today was designed as a warning pop-up, text reads, "Threat Detected: Immediate Action Required. Fatal Registry Error ... click "Repair All" to eliminate all possible threats and clean your PC". I have screenshots of all the above.
I'm worried that another user, my son or mother, might take this warning seriously and install malware by accident. What can I do to prevent these ads? I expect this type of malware advertising on dodgy websites, but I'm getting them when I try to access hotmail, the news, etc, so it's not the website that's causing them.

Found the source using Microsoft Safety Scanner on a full scan. The culprit was a Trojan:Win32/Sirefef!cfg

Rented movie has expired yet it still tries to download to iTunes so I get an error message every time I start iTunes

I rented a movie - it expired a month ago. iTunes still tries to download the movie every time i start iTunes. I get an error that it couldn't download the movie.

Keep getting multiple song files every time I open ITunes

Argh. Every time I open ITunes I have two or three of the same song in my Library. What's worse, when I plug in my Ipod, I end up with two or three copies of the same song on my Ipod as well.
Help!
Much thanks,
Jhawk

McAfee AntiVirus by any chance? See the thread Why does iTunes delete my itunesprefs.xml?
Or it could be an issue with the SC Info folder. See TS1277 - iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization for details.

Every time I launch iTunes, I have to Turn Off, then Turn On, iTunes Match

Hi,
When I launch iTunes, while all of my Match songs are listed, I can't play any of them. Right-clicking on a song reveals that the "Play <song name>" context menu item is grayed-out.
The only work-around I've found is to
Turn off iTunes Match
Turn on iTunes Match, entering my Apple ID and Password again.
While this works, it is slow (it has to re-download my Match database each time), and kind of annoying.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Same here, been hunting for a solution for months and months. Nobody ever has a solution not even apple.

"importing itunes music library.xml" pops up every time I launch iTunes

My MacBook Pro crashed this morning, requiring a "safe mode" restart. Anyway, on relaunch, everything seems to be working okay now. EXCEPT -- now whenever I first launch iTunes (after rebooting the computer), I get the popup progress box "importing itunes music library.xml" which is followed by a message about the iTunes library being moved to a "iTunes Library (damaged)" message when complete.
I guess my iTunes library has gotten corrupted somehow.
I've searched for this error message and found numerous posts, but all seem to be in reference to moving the iTunes music library from one computer to another.
Can someone assist me in how to correct this problem? I don't want to try resyncing my iPod without fixin this first...

same prob here, but mine goes one step farther (read: worse). i reported in the form from previous post, but no response yet.
in addition to displaying the "importing..." message, the system ultimately indicated that the file was damaged and saved a version as such. Over half my music is not shown in the new file, and thus not in itunes (though the music files are still there.
has anyone figured this out? would hate to have to individually add everytihg back.

I get a pin wheel every time I launch iphoto

Any advice as to what I can do besides reinstalling?

Yes, rebuild the Library.
What version of iphoto?

All of a sudden I am getting error message -42408 every time I open iTunes.

I have updated to the most recent version of iTunes and that didn't help. I can download iTunes items on my iPhone, but not my Mac. But I can see the iTunes store on my Mac. It just gives me an error and won't let me download anything OR let me sync my iPhone or iPad.

This may help

Incoming network connections – must accept manually every time I launch

I keep getting asked, every time I launch iTunes, whether I want to allow it to accept incoming network connections.
Isn't there any way to avoid this extra step every time I want to run this application?

Just in case anyone stumbles upon this thread like I did...while searching for the same problem with Keynote (or maybe other apps). Deleting the Keynote app and emptying the trash worked to clear up my persistent "allow incoming network connections" pop-ups in Keynote. But since you can't just download Keynote again (unless you purchased form the Mac App Store), here's what you can do:
Type "Keynote" into the spotlight search. When you see the app in the search results, Command+Click on it to open up it's Finder location. Then right-click (CTRL+Click) on the Keynote app file in Finder and choose "Compress..." to create a zip of the app in the same folder location as the original. Now delete the keynote.app file to send it to the trash. Lastly empty the trash. Once the app is gone**, double-click on the zip file to expand Keynote again in it's original location. Once you're satisfied, you can send the zip file of Keynote to the trash.
**If you still get the problem even when deleting the app and emptying the trash, then you might need to delete and purge the "plist" file for keynote as well. It is located at /Users/YOURUSER/Library/Preferences (where YOURUSER is your own personal username) and the file is called com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist. If you don't know how to get to your Library folder on later version of Mac OS X, you can open Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking "Go" in Finder's menu bar, and Library will magically appear as a Go location.

ITunes 9 asking to Allow or Deny every time at launch?

Why is iTunes 9 asking to allow or deny incoming connections every time I launch iTunes? Is there a simple way to correct this or a known bug. I have enabled that Home Sharing feature so I think it is that probably.

Hi everyone. I did not have the same problem when I just upgraded to 10.6.1. But I started to have it when I added new iTunes genres artworks. So may be it's something related to changing the original content of the iTunes resources folder like permissions, etc. Did someone make the same change?.

Is there a why to stop the box that pops up demanding a password to enable automatic downloads every time I open iTunes?

Everytime I open itunes a box prompts me to enter a password to enable automatic downloads so I hit 'cancel' and it goes away, then it comes bck soon after. Is there a way of disabling this? It's as bad as getting pop up ads, only it's coming from Apple. VERY annoying.

I have experienced the same problem. Here's what worked for me.
I did all three so I cannot say for sure which step was the successful one.
(1) iTunes > Preferences > Store. Uncheck everything that has to do with Automatic Downloads. (From now on if I want to check on the status of any downloads I will do it manually. No big deal. That beats having to enter my password every time I launch iTunes.)
(2) iTunes > Store menu. Select Authorize This Computer. The response is that it is already authorized. The thinking here is that it resets the authorization.
(3) iTunes > Store menu. Turn off Genius. (Bummer, because I kind of like Genius. Oh well.)
(4) iTunes > Preferences > Advanced. Click Reset Warnings and Reset Cache. (Again, clean house to see if that helps.)
So far this has worked. No more constant requests for my iTunes password upon launching iTunes.
