I keep getting a message saying my computer isn't authorised to sync my iPhone but it is authorised!

Hi,
I can't recall exactly when it started but I can no longer sync my iPhone to my MacBook Pro.
Each time I try to sync I get a message at Step 2 telling me:
but when I follow the instructions given I get this message:
The annoying part being that the computer is ALREADY AUTHORISED!So, I'd really appreciate some help/advice.
Kind regards,
Namph

  • Can't sync my Iphone 6. I keep getting a message saying my computer is not authorized...

    I have uninstalled and re installed iTunes, de-authorized and then authorized the computer. and still getting the message.

    Ok I got it to sync by dragging and dropping an album... ***, it would not sync by clicking on the sync button?
    I'll update if this fixed the problem.

  • ITunes says my computer isn't authorized to sync my iPhone. Then when I authorize, it says it is already authorized. So it keeps repeating this cycle!

    I have a new computer and have continually had problems syncing.  Now it says computer is no longer authorized to play purchases on my iPhone. When I put in password etc. to authorize, it says it is already authorize. Then it syncs up to step 5 and repeats again.  I have tried entering my password about ten times.  Same thing. It is already authorized. But then when I try to sync, it says it is not authorized!

    The computer is new and I guess this is more of a computer than an iPhone problem, isn't it?
    Is the computer a Mac?
    If so, perhaps also give the following document a try:

    I've been working on our church website and all of a sudden this week, my computer will not connect to the site. I keep getting a message saying that the the connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?

    The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

    Hello m.goo, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    To eject the Disc, hold the Mouse button down, (or what passes for it on a Laptop), while powering up, if you also hold the Option key down at the same time it should eject & give you a chance to insert your install disc & wait for it to shw as a Boot option.
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc , then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, *you must select your language first.)*
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
    If it appears to be time for An Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, APPs, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...

  • HT1386 I have changed computers and when I try to sync my apps, I keep getting a message saying that the computer is not authorised to sync the apps even though I have authorised the computer.

    Hi, I have just set up iTunes in my new computer and have 'synced' my iphone, however, my apps have not synced, I keep getting a message saying that this computer is not authorised to sync the apps even though I have authorised it.  I don't know if the issue is the fact that I had to set up a new apple ID?  Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    My computer says it's connected to the internet, but I keep getting a message that my computer can't find the server.  Could there be a problem with my computer's internet connection?

    First, unplug the modem, for at least 10 secs., then unlpug you airport/ wifi/ then try to reconnect.
    If it it does not not work, reconnect your modem, then reconnect your network utilites, use assistance.

  • HT4623 I've tried to intall ios 7 but on the activation part on the phone i keep getting a message saying 'your iphone could not be activated becayse rge activation server cannot be researched. Try connecting your iphone to itunes to activate'

    I've tried to intall ios 7 but on the activation part on the phone i keep getting a message saying 'your iphone could not be activated becayse rge activation server cannot be researched. Try connecting your iphone to itunes to activate, or try again in a few minutes'. However when i plug my phone into the computer itunes has an error message saying 'We could not complete your itunes store request. The network connection was rese. Make sure your network connection is active and try again'. How do I do this? Thanks.

    unfortunately no, a million people are attempting to update their phones right now, and thus activate them. Patience will have to suffice.
    For the future, I would recommend not updating essential work devices on the launch day

  • I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player.  It says I need ios 4.3.  I keep getting a message saying I can download 6.? but it will wipe out everything on my ipod.  Is there a way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player. It says I need ios 4.3. I keep getting a message saying I can download ios 6.? but that it will wipe everything off my ipod.  Is there any way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    There is no supported method to "downgrade" iOS on any device.  If you update, you will get the latest iOS for your device, which will be iOS 6.1.3.  You cannot go backwards to iOS 4.3
    If you have never backed up in either iCloud or iTunes, then upgrading to iOS 6.1.3 will involve restoring your device as part of the upgrade.  Without a backup to restore from, you will loose everything that is on it.
    You should first connect to iTunes with your computer, sync your device without upgrading and create an up to date backup of everything.  Then use the upgrade option in iTunes to update your iOS.
    However, if the dock device strictly requires iOS 4.3, it will not work, as you cannot downgrade iOS.  There simply is no mechanism from Apple to do that.

    How do i get my ipod touch out of recovery mode......keep getting error message saying ipod could not be restored an unknown error occurred.
    Been trying all night to sort out but just going around in circles

    I have not seen a solution for that error but try:
    - Place the iPod in DFU mode and then restore

    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    blucoast,
    Can you please be more detailed? When are you getting this - what is causing it? Any specific tool or while starting Photoshop itself?
    Do you see an error number or error code or a report? Can you post that here?

    This has nothing to do with iPhoto. When I have this type of problem I call tech support for my email service. They probably are the only source of the correct settings
