I'm getting an error that says "The iPhone "------" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Everything will sync but the music. I am an administrator and all the files are organized. How do I sync my phone?

I cannot sync my iTunes library or any playlists to my iPhone due to a message that reads "The iPhone "-----" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access priviledges for this operation. I also have music on my iPhone that will not sync to my iTunes library. Any way to sync the two together?

I hope this helps. Not the easiest fix, but I suspect it will solve the problem.

You do not have enough access priviledges for this operation

When I try to purchase music from itunes i get the following message, "You do not have enough access priviledges for this operation and I'm not able to download song enough though itunes deducted money from my redemption."

I don't know how much this will help you, I'm no tech, I went into my USER ACCOUNT and it said I had multiple Apple Ids so I deleted one on both my and my wifes desktop. Also, in Mac HD I highlighted library and users individually and "got Info" and made sure that all was turned to read and write and I also did that on the Mac HD icon. Then I took my music off my phone and re synced
My Mac was updated to Lion and I installed iCloud and was syncing my IPHONE 4S. We had no problem syncing my wife's iPad2 with the mac at all.
After I resynced with no warnings I used my utility to fix all my permissions.

I have had itunes on my computer for a while now and was working beautifully. I had a new printer installed by a tech guy with had to do something to windows 7 to get it to print correctly. Now itunes is acting up. When I try to download updates or sync with my iPad I get an error message saying "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation". Can anyone help?

I'm assuming you are synching to a Mac via iTunes? If so, you need to fix and reset your disk permissions using the Disk Utility app on the Mac.

If your iPad has a passcode lock, have you tried unlocking the iPad before attempting to sync it with iTunes?
Do you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your Windows PC?

HELP! trying to transfer purchases from my iPad but keep getting: "you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" message

I recently had a hard drive crash and lost almost everything except for what I managed to save on Carbonite. When I got the new hard drive, I updated to Lion and began the laborious process of restoring my files. I think it is up to 40% done.
Anyway, I went to try to transfer my purchases from my iPad2 (4.3.3) and received the message: "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" followed by: "Attempting to copy to Hard drive failed. You do not have enough access priviledges for this operation."
So, I did a search on the problem and have found similar complaints and some reasonable suggestions, which I attempted without success. So far I have:
1) Rebooted
2) Changed all the Permissions on the iPhoto Library and iTunes folders to Read & Write.
3) Used Disk Utility to Verify & Repair permissions.
Nothing is working.
HELP!

Had the same thing happen to me a few weeks back when I switched computers and migrated. Here's what worked on my iMac, so maybe it'll work on your iPad, too. Go to User(your home folder)/Music. Select/highlight your "Music" folder. Then do Command-I ("Get Info" from the File menu), click on the padlock icon in the lower right of the new window. Enter your user password. Click on your username just above the now-open padlock. Select "Read & Write" if it's on "Read Only," "Write Only," or "No Access." Now having your user account with "Read & Write" privileges (it may have been this way already; still do this next step), click on the gear on the bottom-center of that window. Click on "Apply to all enclosed items." When the pop-up says "Are you sure?" (or the equivalent), say "yes." This will grant access privileges to your user account for all the music files inside your music folder--all your iTunes stuff included). Then you should be good to go.

How do I fix "you do not have enough access priviledges for this operation" when trying to sync my iPhone?
