ITunes 9.0.2 - computer autorization glitch when syncing downloaded apps

The apps I've downloaded for my iPhone via the iTunes store will not sync to my iPhone.
I get an error that says my computer is not authorized to use these apps and when I try to authorize my computer iTunes store gives me a further error message:
"There was an error storing your authorizaion information on this computer"
"The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions error cannot be changed"
I have tried to find the permissions error with no luck and tried to deauthorize my computer in iTunes which brings up the same error message as above.
Can anyone advise as to what's going on? Never had this problem before upgrading to iTunes 9.0.2...

Download a fresh iTunes.dmg. Close iTunes.
Then to get itunes to install from the .dmg you will need to go to HD>Library>Receipts>iTunesX.pkg and remove the iTunesX.pkg to the trash.
Put the iTunes app in the trash.
Backup the 2 files iTunes Library and iTunes Music Library.xml (located in HD>User>User Account>Music>iTunes. Keep the b/u in a different location.) Reinstall iTunes. Launch iTunes. If all works and you are happy you can empty the trash.

My computer shuts down when I download itunes new version, my computer shuts down when I download itunes new version

I have windows 7 and my computer keeps shutting down when downloading iTunes 10.5 version.

I have windows 7 and my computer keeps shutting down when downloading iTunes 10.5 version.

When syncing downloaded apps, I receive error message:

I am receiving an error message when trying to download 2 apps: Red Laser & Navigon Mobile Navigator. I have actually had these apps on my 3G phone for a while, but the last time I tried to download the updates, I keep getting an error message that part of the app is corrupted & to download it from the app store. I try to do that & I still get the same error message. I tried to just uninstall both of the apps, but iTunes tries to then re-install the apps onto my phone. I really don't care now if I have the apps or not. I either want to have them install correctly, or to remove them from my phone & computer for good.
Please assist. Thanks so much.

1st. Turn off your phone and back on.
if that does not work, do a reset by holding the on/off button and the home button until the Apple logo comes on.

We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? home sharing is not selected

We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? Home sharing is NOT selected. This recently became an issue when we added additional devices. Now we keep getting each other's apps!

Se descargan aplicaciones para mi iPad 64 3G, las cuales en el momento de sincronizar no pasan a la iPad debido a que solicita una autorizacion para el ordenador la cual se autoriza con ID y el Password, esta orden se procesa y vuelve a solicitar nuevamente la autorizacion y asi sucesivamente.
He intentado creando nuevas cuentas y desinstalando iTunes y volviendolo a instalar.
Favor de orientarme en la solucion adecuada para el asunto comentado anteriormente.

I cannot get my ipod touch or iphone to be recognized by Itunes on my mac mini. Only when i download itunes each time afresh, will it show up the first time. Then these devices will not be recognized at other times. Is it because i am not uninstalling it

I cannot get my ipod touch or iphone to be recognized by Itunes on my mac mini. Only when i download itunes each time afresh, will it show up the first time. Then these devices will not be recognized subsequently. Is it because i am not uninstalling itunes before I download it? Surely this is a basic thing, ie that my devices need to recognize each other?

After you dry the iPod:
How to fix a wet iPod or iPhone | eHow.comfix-wet-ipod-iphone.html
Connect the iPod to a charging source overnight and then try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- 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.

Itunes 10.6.1.7 keeps crashing when syncing with the new Ipad

Glad to find this forum!
It's been a disappointing and frustrating week for me as I have tried to sync my new ipad with itunes 10.6.1.7. Itunes keeps crashing without reasons when syncing either apps, music or videos. Btw, I am using Windows XP SP3.
So far, I have not been able to play any videos because Itunes always crashes.
I have tried to re-install Itunes for more than 5 times [with fresh install] but the problem still occurs. I have also tried to downgrade to Itunes 10.5.3 as suggested in the other threads but Itunes still crashes. This only happens when syncing with the new Ipad.
I have an Ipod Nano which works great on both version of Itunes.
I am really disappointed because I can't watch movies and/or listen to music on my new ipad because it keeps crashing.
My wish is just simple. I just want to be able to watch movies and listen to my music on my new ipad. Sadly, this is not possible yet.
Can anyone help?

This indicates there might be an issue with the time configuration on the device.
Go to Settings > General > Date and time. See if Set automatically is switched to on. If so, switch to off and ensure you set date, time and time zone manually and correctly.
Power off the device (hold sleep button for four seconds, then slide to power off), then power back on.
If issue persists, switch Set automatically back to on, and if not resolved then restore the device.

If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

Hello susanserio
Try Deauthorize your account and then Authorize the account to see if any changes occur. Also there may a resolution in the second article that can be helpful as well.

I have apps that I downloaded from a friends computer and some from my own. When I try to sync them to my computer it will only sync my apps and save them. Is there something I am overlooking to get all of them to sync and save.

Your friends Apps are not your Apps... If you want those Apps you will need to Purchase them.

You shouldn't be using the same account on phone iphones. Have him setup his own and make sure his iCloud is logged in with that one
