[iPhone] iTunes always asking app authorization

Hello everybody !
I have a trouble with my iPhone 3G and my Windows Vista SP1 (latest iTunes). Due to a software problem, I had to FULLY restore my iPhone (so I reinstalled iPhone OS, and I used the factory restore), and now everytime I sync my iPhone iTunes tells me that "this computer is not allowed anymore to use the apps...", so I need to be ALWAYS connected to Internet to sync, and when I allow the computer, as usual it tells me that computer is already allowed.
I tried to reset all the authorizations (3 out of 5), but I can't since there is not 5 out 5 authorizations.
Any help ?? Thanks !

Hello,
thanks for the link, I just found it few minutes before you replied
I've put this method to the test since a week, and it works
Thank you again !

New hard drive installed in Mac. iTunes keeps asking to authorize a very old email address which is not associated with my iPhone and I cannot sync iTunes to my iPhone.

New hard drive installed in Mac. iTunes keeps asking to authorize a very old email address which is not associated with my iPhone and I cannot sync iTunes to my iPhone.

It is referring to purchases made using an Apple ID that was set with that email as the Apple ID. Did you simply create a new Apple ID when the old email address was no longer being used? If so, then that old Apple ID is still tied (and will always be tied) to the purchases made with it, and you will have to sign into iTunes with that Apple ID in order to authorize the computer to it.
If you don't remember the password for it, you can go to Manage your Apple ID and click on Reset password. If you don't remember the answers to your Security Questions, you can contact Apple Support to get them reset:

Itunes keeps asking to authorize one song from an album purchased

I've seen that many people have posted something similar and I have tried the various fixes like removing the /users/shared/sc info folder (which didnt exist on my imac) and also deauthorizing and reauthorizing the mac, reload etc etc. But one song in the Coldplay album I purchased doesnt play. The rest are fine. It keeps asking to authorise to play the song when the MAC is already authorised. Anyone have any ideas how I address this? I am sure if Itunes allow me re-dowload this it will be ok but how do you contact them? I should have just downloaded from Amazon, itunes does not make life easy.

Thanks for your help, appreciated, but I have no proxy, virus protection or such like. Its definitely a song. Its fully downloaded the Coldplay album and the song 'Paradise' just will not play without authorization and when I authorize it says my Mac is already authorized. I then go to play the song and it asks for authorization again. All other songs play without any trouble. The funny thing is I do an automatic download to my IPhone and the song 'Paradise' plays ok on the phone!! Its the best song the album as well!
Does anyone know how to go about getting ITunes to allow me to download just that song again?
Should stick to buying CD and then ripping the songs.

Hey Mohamed Akhtar,
Thanks for the question. To troubleshoot this issue, you may want to try deauthorizing all computers:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
1. Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
3. Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
If you continue to have issues, you may want to see the steps in this article:

Itune keep asking to authorize my pc

i having problem sync my app where my itune keep asking to to authorize my PC which i did.

Click on STORE at the top deautorize your computer and reauthorise it with your apple id, that should solve the problem.
Other than that it could be you have purchases from another apple id on your phone that you havent authorised on your pc.

ITunes keeps asking for authorization and won't close

I have been having trouble with iTunes ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion. iTunes will open and repeatedly ask for authorization. I've tried resetting the authorization, using terminal to do it, deleting folders, etc. I would like to try and uninstall iTunes, but I cannot get iTunes to close. Not even force quit will cause it to stay closed long enough to delete it and reinstall it. Then there's the problem where it appears to have lost my library completely...which may be part of this issue or a separate issue. Considering it started at the same time, I'm guessing it's just another facet of the issue. I'd love to just reinstall iTunes, but I can't get it to not open and/or close. I am about ready to throw the MacBook in the garbage, because this is the sort of problems I expect with Windows, not Apple. Any ideas would be appreciated to save my laptop and sanity.

here is the fix..it worked for me

ITunes always asks to allow incoming connections

I have the apple firewall turned on. iTunes is set in the firewall to allow incoming connections.
With iTunes Home Sharing turned on every time I start iTunes I am asked to allow incoming connections. I reply yes and the next time I restart iTunes I am asked the same question again.
If I turn iTunes Home Sharing off I am never asked about allowing incoming connections when I use iTunes.
Is there something else I should be doing? ( other than turning the firewall off )
Any help would be appreciated.

If you are experiencing this problem on your Mac, follow these simple steps to get rid of the Allow or Deny popups:
1. Go to the Applications folder and drag iTunes to the Trash. Don’t worry, your music, videos, and entire media library are not affected and will still be there. Only the iTunes software will be uninstalled (though it's always wise to have a backup, particularly of your iTunes Store purchases or anything else that would be difficult/expensive to replace).
2. Reboot or log out of your Mac. This step may or may not be necessary, but it certainly doesn’t hurt.
3. When you are logged back in, go to Apple’s website to download the latest version of iTunes if you haven't already..
4. Install iTunes. Do not import any songs or videos if it prompts you to do so.
All of your media should be right where you left it the first time your fresh installation of iTunes is opened. If you get another firewall popup asking to Allow or Deny incoming network connections, make your choice and that should be the last time you see it. Future iTunes launches shouldn't pester you anymore.

Hope this helps.

I'm using lion 10.7.1 and ever since upgrading my preferances are not saved after I shut off the computer. My screen saver is always photos even after changing it, itune always asks if I want to upgrade, even after telling it never to.

When I turn off the computer my preferances are forgot. My screen saver aways goes to photos. Ittune always ask if I want to upgrade even after telling it not to . firefox always goes the upgrade page a progam I have to save my clipboard resets itself.

This does appear to be an issue with synergy, but I've also noticed on my C2D Macbook Pro that the screen does not wake from sleep when I simply touch or move around on the touchpad. Now, I have to hit a button (like return) to get the monitor to wake up. Submitting a button strike through synergy does not work, though. Neither does a mouse click on either the trackpad or through synergy.
It also appears that synergy is functioning even though the monitor is off. My mouse does move to the screen and progress across it (I have a three monitor setup with the Mac in the middle, so I can move it off my left system to my Mac, keep moving, and eventually it will show up on the third screen). If synergy weren't working, I would expect it to go from screen 1 to screen 3.
So I think there's something up with how Lion detects that the monitor should be reenabled, and synergy is even more affected by that decision.

ITunes always asks for sign in

Every time I start iTunes, even if only to listen to my local music, it pops up a dialog box "Sign In To Use This Computer for Automatic Downloads"
If I click "Cancel", it pops up a second time; after the second "Cancel" it goes away. As far as I can tell, Automatic Downloads are disabled.
How can I make iTunes stop asking me to sign in every time I use it? (I don't want to stay signed in because I use several different computers and don't want to manage sessions across all of them.)

My iPhone 5S always asks for my iTunes password before i can use my fingerprint

I have set my iPhone 5s up, i use the fingerprint sensor to unlock and dowload apps etc, i have gone in to settings, general, Touch ID & Passcode, Touch ID and selected to use the finger print sensor for iTunes & App Store, i put my password in etc, yet every time i try to download an App i have to input my password again before i can use Touch ID! Why??
Just what is the point of setting it all up, when it is obvious that the Touch ID is not 100% trustworthy, has the password would only need inputting once if it was!
Really not happy with this repetitive cycle, i may has well of stuck with my iPhone 5, than waste my money on a gimmick!!

I would try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple if possible or hold for about 15 seconds then let go. If that does not help, I would restore it through itunes on your computer.

Itunes always asks for credit card authorization

I'm using the same computer, but always get challenged to verify a credit card security card, claiming I am using a different computer. Why do I always have to repeat this activity?

You can create an iTune and App Store account without credit card details
1. Sign out of current Apple ID if you are sign-in to one (important)
2. Go to App Store and select a free app
3. Tap INSTALL APP
4. Create New Apple ID
5. Confirm Your Country
6. Agree with Terms and Conditions
7. Fill in your Apple ID and Password (you must create a new Apple ID; don't use your old Apple ID)
8. Create and answer your secret question
9. Select NONE for Payment Method
10. Fill in Billing Address
11. Submit application for new Apple ID
12. Wait for verification email
13. When email arrive, verify your account
14. Start downloading your free apps

If no change after restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the iPhone's backup, your iPhone has a problem. Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if available.

IPhone + iTunes sync - syndicationagent.app problem

I'm a new iPhone user and whenever I sync my iPhone to iTunes, I always get a popup saying that the SyndicationAgent.app has been updated and needs access to my keychain again. I click on "Change All" and after a minute or so the pop up eventually clears but always returns again when I re-sync my iPhone.
I've tried uninstalling/re-installing iTunes (8.2) and Safari (4 beta) but the problem still occurs. I don;t even know what Syndication Agent.app is supposed to be doing - I gather it has something to do with RSS feeds from Safari?
Does anyone know how I can get rid of this popup whenever I sync? Or can I get rid of the Agent.app? (will this cause other problems?)
I'm running tiger 10.4.11.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I suspect there is a file system issue on your Mac. Repair permissions with Disk Utility, and also verify your HD. If Verify finds errors, start your Mac with the OS X install disc and repair with the utility there,

When syncing, iPhone 5C always asks to register

I'm trying to help a friend here. He's new to the Apple world but is now fully equipped--iMac, iPad 4 and iPhone 5C. Every time he hooks his phone up to his computer and tries to sync with iTunes, the system asks him to register his phone. What would cause this?
