Imported files not authorized to upload to ipod???

I had purchased some tunes online awhile back and had no problem with them. Then my hard drive crashed and I had to reinstall itunes. I imported the files to it and it says it won't allow them to be uploaded to my ipod as they are not authorized on my computer. I checked to make sure my computer is on the authorized list and it is. Why can't I get them transfered to my ipod and how can I fix it? New to ipod and so far not having much luck with it....
Thanks

Have you authorised your second computer to play your purchases, do the songs and videos play in iTunes? If you have then try deauthorising the computer and authorising it over again: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

Import files not successfully uploading/rendering

I'm having trouble importing files successfully. Just tried uploading a batch of about 20 clips. Maybe 3 actually successfully rendered and appeard with a corresponding thumbnail in my Event window. The rest appear as an image of a white document icon and yellow caution sign on a red background. I never used to have this issue. Recently I installed OS X Mavericks and have really struggled to succesully import clips. Sometimes I have to upload 5, 6 or even 7 times to get all of the clips I need into the events page.
Anyone have advice? Thanks!

Nope. Not a pirate. Admittedly, I have been using this version for some time, and I don't get prompts for software updates. I'll make sure I do this now. Didn't realize the solution was that simple. Thanks for your help.

"Not authorized" to upload videos to 30GB iPod

I just switched my iPod from syncing with one G5 to another. I was able to upload most music but some songs (all purchased via iTunes) said that I am "not authorized to play these songs on this iPod." Then, none my tv shows/videos will upload because "these videos cannot be played on this iPod." I have the updated 1.2 firmware and iTunes 7.0. Why won't purchased music and video upload to my iPod?

File not Found error when synching Ipod

I have a fairly new Ipod and synced successfully for months, but now iTunes says it cant synch because of a "File not Found error" (no error number or other clues). I'm running the latest iTines and Ipod software, and I've reset USB drivers but still no luck. I cant reset the iPod itself becase I then got a "1418 error", which is why I then reset USB. I'm stuck, has anyone seen this before?
The Ipod itself plays fine and Itunes recgnises it OK, albeit very slowly, even thought I'm using USB 2.
One other piece of info; when this first happened, the sync must have first deleted the songs I no longer wanted, prior to unsuccesfully adding new ones. Those old songs show up on the iPod but are skipped when I try to play them.

Its on the same thread as this one ("connecting iPod nano (second Generation ) to Windows"). Scroll through the authors, you will find it.

Moved Files "Not Authorized"

Is there a step I am missing when copying new files to machines that are authorized to play my iTunes content?
Currently my iTunes libraries are located on external drives.
I have one for my desktop (G-Tech 2TB) and one for my MacBook Pro (iOmega Mini Max 2TB).
The problem I am having is with the "authorizations" on the files.
Even though both computers are authorized to play my iTunes content when I copy new files and go to play something new on my MacBook Pro the system invariably tells me that "this computer is not authorized to play this content". Now if I have an internet connection available this is an easy fix but if I don't (which is fairly often when I am operating off my laptop) I am screwed.
Is there a step I am missing in importing that will prevent this?

Hi kellmack,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend the steps in this article if iTunes prompts you to authorize your PC to play some purchases after you've already authorized it:

File to File - "Not authorized to file" Problem

Hi
I have configured a communication channel to pick a file form R/3 system. We have created an FTP user for this. We are getting "Not authorized to file" error in adapter monitoring. I came to know that the FTP user needs R3OWNER authority. Does the FTP user really needs the R3OWNER authority or is there any other way to pick the file from the R/3 system ?
Regards,
Sreenivas Nettem

Nettem,
If the client has no problem within the organisation to share the files then we will go for NFS. If you send the files outside your organisation then we will do the FTP. NFS is nothing but network file sharing.
Sometimes even with in the organisation also client dont want to give file sharing. Then you will go for FTP. Hope this gives you some idea on these two.

Imported files not showing up in folders

I've imported .psd files into a folder of .dng images so I can stack them with their originals. They were all saved with Max Compatibility and LightRoom seems to import them ok, but they don't show up in the grid or filmstrip. Their folder listing has a + sign by the file total and in the folder hierarchy on the filmstrip panel it says that it's showing 82 of 95 photos. How can I get these .psd files to appear?
If I check the actual folder on the hard disk, the .psd files are there. If I remove them from the folder and try to re-import them, I get a message saying they are already there.
This hasn't happened every time I've done this action, but a number of my folders show this problem.

For *.jpg and *.nef (RAW) files the handling is similar:
If there is a *.nef (RAW) file in the source directory, a *.jpeg with same name will be copied by LR into the destination directory, but the *.jpg will not be included in the LR database.
The problem is, that LR does not report this to the user. LR should open a popup window after import listing the files not added to the database (as it does for duplicates).
Personally I'd find it better if LR would import everything to disk AND database. It should perform an automatic stacking for files with same name but different type. The RAW or DNG should be on top of stack of course.

SWF File not working after upload to server, but works on local system

HELP PLEASE.....I have created a Fla and exported a swf file
from Flash 8 and Export (Flash 6). I can preview the page in
Dreamweaver just fine, but when i upload it and the html file, it
isn't showing up. It leaves a blank spot on the page. It is just a
simple banner with graphic clips and motion tween text, with image
bgd. All images are jpg.
I have tried:
1. Using a full link to the swf file.
2. Removed drop-shodows in swf file
3. convert to Flash mx 2004 file
4. Exported to higher Flash version to see if the flash
player was an issue.
5. Exported with no dashes in name
6. Added Scr file into Dreamweaver
7. Made a new test file to see if it was something in the
current html doc, same result.
8. Tried viewing on a pc, same result. Created on mac.
Here is the test page if anyone wants to take a look.
THANKS FOR ANY ADVISE.
Test
Page Link

The link you provided is to the SWF file, not to an HTML
file, so no one can test your HTML file.
Have you checked the code for the embedding of the SWF file
in your HTML file? I don't use Dreamweaver much, but I do know that
if you start assembling a Dreamweaver file without first saving the
HTML, embedded graphics and other items are inserted as direct
links to the files on your computer, rather than as relative paths.
There is one other possible issue: I note that your swf is
called CWABanner.swf. Depending on your FTP settings, it is
possible that your server is forcing all file names to lower case
(a common practice). Which means the file on your server will be
cwabanner.swf. Again, depending on how the web server is set up, if
it is case sensitive, it will treat CWABanner and cwabanner as
separate files. So if the HTML calls CWABanner.swf, but the FTP
upload has forced a rename to lower case to cwabanner.swf, the HTML
file will not find it. Check this out, or to be absolutely certain,
rename everything to lower case: the file name itself and the
reference in the HTML file.

Ipod control and other files not seen in my computer ipod folder

When I plug my ipod in and under "my computer" i select my ipod and the only files that appear are calenders, contacts, data files, notes, photos and xplay music.
How can it Show the rest of the folders?

Ya i figured it out....
1). Be sure Hidden Files and Folders are visible on your computer
- Open My Computer
- Tools>Folder Options
- Switch to the View Tab
- Be sure that Show Hidden Files and Folders is selected

Importing files not in name order

When importing files from my pmw 200 it wont put them in name order . Hence when selecting them and automating to sequence my footage is all mixed up and is not flowing in the order it should be in if any one knows whats going on please help ......

We struggled with this too for awhile, just because we wanted to view the clips as icon (like everyone does) but in the order we took them.
Depending on which version of Premiere you are using you can now select a sort order in clip bin window itself by clicking on 'Sort Icons' icon at the bottom of the clip bin (next to the zoom bar) and choosing 'List View Sort'. This should give you them in the order that they were taken. It's reverts though everytime you open and close the project, which is a pain.
Better solution is this though and it works for older versions of the premiere too. First, view the bin as a list view (bottom left icon) which should order them in the order you want or click on the column headers to get the correct order you want them to appear in. Then create a new empty bin, select icon view for this window and then select all the clips and drag them into the new bin. They should retain the correct order but be viewable as icons and they'll stay in that order forever more!

Imported files not found

Hello,
I am trying to set up Audtion for my students to practice on. I have loaded the "Sky Cell Tel" files from the Audition "Classroom in a Book." This is what I have done:
1. I copied the files from the CD to a folder created specifically for the class using copy/paste in My Computer. I do this so we aren't working with files off the CD, but rather permanently on the harddrive. The files copy over and are present. A check of the properties show the full file content is present. They also play back in Windows Media Player.
2. I launch Audition. I click on File, Import and direct the import to the Sky Cell Tel files in the the folder I put them in. The files load into the "Files" tab. I test the files and they all play in Audition using the play button in the files tab. To give my students a "start from scratch" approach I do not load any files into the timeline. I save the Session As ... and close Audition.
3. I then re-open Audition and then open the previously saved Session. When I do the files that I had previously imported are not present in the Files tab. Where are they??? I am expecting the saved Session to show the imported files as any other editing program I have used. Note, if I use a file in the timeline..., THEN it shows in the File tab upon reopening the saved Session. But files not used in the timeline do not show in the Files tab.
I think my frustration in obvious. I insure the files are permanently on the harddrive. I Import the files. I save the Session. Latter, upon having a student re-open the Session the imported files are not found. Embarrassing and frustrating.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Tom

I presume we're talking about AA3 here. Yes, a file doesn't get associated with a session until it has actually been used in it - it's always been like that. Normally this isn't an issue (or if it is, nobody's ever mentioned it here before), but I can sort-of understand your frustration. My take on giving students a real-life experience in this situation might perhaps involve a little chat with your network manager, depending upon how you've got your network organised. Give each student their own file storage area that they have to log into, and put copies of the files in each of them, and get them to have the complete experience by loading the files themselves. They'll soon find out what happens to files they don't use...
I think that the issue with saving sessions having unused files in the file window is that the way the .xml is structured, you only get entries which have time stamps on them. If a file isn't used, then it's not associated with any time stamps and is regarded as not part of the session at save time. It's completely logical, I'm afraid - although frustrating for you!

Purchased songs not authorized on computer from ipod

For some reason a pop up comes up that says this computer is not authorized to play purchased songs on ipod. And I choose the option to authorize. It says it is authorized already. After clicking ok it closes then it pops up again. I authorize it again but it keeps popping up. Not sure why since all the songs are purchased through the store.

Change the iPod's drive letter. That has helped several folks.
Directions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1493
I know your symptom isn't in that article's list, but try it.
I assume the songs will play in itunes, correct? If you get the evil authorization loop while just trying to play songs in iTunes, there are other things to try. If they just won't go to the ipod, the drive letter change should work.

"ipod cannot update - file not found" after getting new ipod

i had my ipod replaced today at the apple store because of a bad HD. Seems like the one they gave me was brand new...anyway after following the restore/charge directions, i went to go plug it into my dock and Itunes is telling me it can't update the ipod because the file is missing. i definitely have the latest update installer, and i even tested playlist syncs with the new ipod and it definitely updates songs/playlists, but after that it gives me the error message about not being able to update.
i ran the last updater, and it says my ipod is up to date.
what's going wrong? i must have done something wrong.

or not....i spoke too soon!
it's doing it AGAIN. after it started updating after restoring all was well, it tried to add my whole library which won't fit.
when it add's a "library selection" instead automatically, it fills up my ipod so that the photos won't update.
then when i re-mount the ipod, it gives me the same old error message again about missing the file required for updating!?!?!?
i wish my preference to "manually add songs" instead of syncing the library would save in Itunes when i restore my Ipod. it's making it impossible for me to get things working properly after restoring....

Transfer AVI movie file to Itunes to upload to Ipod Touch

Hi
Just got Ipod touch and have some movies/tv shows on desktop that I want to put to my ipod. Tried the Save file to library on itunes but nothing happens. Does anyone know how I can put these AVI files to my ipod touch.
Simple instructions appreciated, first ipod so still learning the ropes.
Ta Urs

You need to find Windows software to convert .avi to .mp4 or .mov, then import that file into iTunes, then sync it.
