HT1473 Downloaded a song, says I need to authorize, I do, it says I'm already authorized. I try again, it say I need to authorize. Repeat.

Help - this is dumb.

That suggests that 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.

    Hello CTGame,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s a grayed out song in your iTunes library that can’t be played or downloaded again like other past purchases. Try taking a look at the article linked below and verify the computer is authorized to play that content.
    How to troubleshoot iTunes Match - Apple Support
    Songs appear to be missing
    Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Try authorizing your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To determine what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized for to play a specific song:
    Locate and select the song in your iTunes library.
    Choose File > Get Info.
    In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down.
    Click OK.
    Choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
    Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
    Choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • HT201272 I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days..." WH

    I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 75 days." WHAT??
    I've never had problems before - my husband and I have used the same library for years.  My daughter also has her own Apple ID... are we going to have trouble with that, too?  Actually we have 4 Apple IDs - somewhere around 8 Apple devices... this is a huge issue for us... HELP

    Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

    Re: error 4002 in itunes match do you have a solution? 
    Sep 23, 2012 10:08 AM (in response to matracaelcan)
    Hi All,
    I had this problem today myself, and was frustrated repeatedly by the '4002' error.
    I have literally just fixed the issue by doing the following steps:
    1: Go to the 'Store' tab and select 'Turn Off iTunes Match'
    2: Return to the 'Store' tab and select 'Update Genius'
    3: Wait for this to complete succesfully, the return to the 'Store' tab once more and select 'Turn On iTunes Match'.
    4: iTunes Match will now go through the motions and should succeed!
    I hope this helps

  • I just bought an album on iTunes but didn't get the first two songs.  I click on them to try to download them, but get a message to authorize my computer.  My computer is already authorized.  How can I get my two missing songs?

    Sometimes, there would be temporary connectivity glitches preventing you from downloading a certain track from the iTunes store - these are rare and usually resolve if you try back in some time. If it continues, contact Apple support mentioning the name of the problematic song:

  • When I try to use FaceTime on my Macbook Air, I try to verify the email I want people to call me with, and it says verified, but soon an message comes up that says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."

    So our school lets us use Macbook Airs for the school year, and it has facetime on it. I know facetime isn't blocked because like everyone else is using it. So I decide to give it a try. I click the icon, it says enter your apple ID. I dont have one, so I click to make one, and do so. I then enter my apple ID and click next. The screen reads "People will call you using your email address. What email address would you like to use?" I enter my email address in the box below the message, and then go to my email and click the link, and sign in, thus verifying the email. I go back to the facetime window, and click next. At the top it says Verified, but when I click next it doesn't go on to the next step, it simply blacks out the next button so that I can not click it, and after a few minutes a message comes up that says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
    So that is the issue, please help!!!!!
    *Note-I repeat that I know it is not blocked by the school because everyone else uses it just fine.*

    Hello BassoonPlayer,
    Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using.  FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in.  This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly.  By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you.  Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

  • TS1424 why wont my itunes 11 on my macbook pro, let me download the songs on my iphone 4 without erasing any music on my phone already?

    I just added songs to my library but when I connected my iPhone 4 to my macbook pro, iTunes wouldnt let me take those songs and put them on my phone. I've clicked the sync button but it seems to say that it'll delete all my existing songs on my phone then put the other songs on it in replace. Unless I'm reading it wrong, can anyone help me?

  • How do I get a song to play when it requests authorization, I authorize it, then iTunes acknowledges it was already authorized and still won't play?

    I have gone through several different troubleshoots and still the problem remains. Inside the "get info" tab on the song it says that it was authorized by my account. The song is part of an album where I purchased the entire album. Out of the 14 songs I purchased on the album, 2 bring up the following screen when clicked on to play:
    This computer is not authorized to play "You Reign Alone". Would you like to authorize it?
    To play this song you must authorize this computer to play songs using this account. You may authorize up to 5 computers for each account.
    So I input the Apple ID and password for the account and it gives me the following screen:
    This computer is already authorized.
    Including this one, you have authorized 3 computers out of your available 5.
    But nothing has changed. I still can't play the song. As I said above, I checked the Get Info tab on the song and it showed the account I had logged in for authorization. Is there something I can do to get iTunes to play the songs I purchased?
    (Side question: does anyone know how to email iTunes support. They say on the website that it can be done, but 45 minutes of frustrated screen hopping landed me nowhere but the same FAQs and Express lane call in support options. I just wanted a simple email option.)

    When I try to play a movie I get an error message saying the computer is not authorized to play the movie.
    When I go to my account to authorize the computer it says this is already authorized.

    Try deauthorizing the computer, logging out of the iTunes store, rebooting your PC, logging back into the iTunes store, and reauthorizing your computer.
    Any luck there?
