Itunes access privileges

I was using itunes last Weds and it worked great. Last Friday, I went to use it and there was no library there. I tried to import thel ibrary and when I clicked on ...itunes.itl it said that I did not have the right access privileges. How do I get to where I can use itunes again? I really don't want to import 254 +/- songs again!

Unfortunately, that article seems to support XP Pro only.
No, it's for XP Home also.

"Troubleshooting
If the Security tab is not available, and if you cannot configure permissions for users and groups, either the file or folder that you want to apply permissions to is not an NTFS drive, or simple file sharing is enabled. To troubleshoot, follow these steps:
1. Verify that the file or folder that you want to apply permissions to is an NTFS drive. You can set permissions only on drives that are formatted to use NTFS.
2. By default, simplified sharing is enabled in Windows XP unless you are on a domain. To work around this behavior, disable Simplified Sharing"

  • ITunes Access Privileges Problem

    I've just purchased a new imac and tried to load itunes for the first time on this machine. I'm running OSX 10.6.7 and iTunes version 10.2.1
    The application loads and i get to see the welcome screen, then a pop up box appears and says i dont have sufficient access privileges for this operation and the application then crashes. I've tried uninstalling itunes and downloading another version. I've tried creating another admin account and installing under a new profile. Each time the same problem.
    Anyone have any ideas that might help?

    I've had the same problem with the sync. I've tried all sorts of changing permissions with no success. It appears to be some communication problem between iTunes and Vista. I haven't heard any fixes for this. I guess all we can do is wait for another iTunes update.
    Also, when syncing, some songs will go onto the ipod others wont, anyone have this happen? Seems strange that some songs would make it onto the ipod and others wouldn't when they all have the same permissions. Thanks.

  • How do I share iTunes access privileges with another user on my mac?

    My wife and I use the same Mac. I recently created a separate user account for her after upgrading to Mountain Lion (so that we can get full functionality out of the new features). I gave her user account full administrator access as well as read & write sharing ability in certain folders... So why can she not purchase content on iTunes? What is the best way to extend the same iTunes account across different users on the same Mac?

    I found the answer on the Quicken Support site. Unbelievable!!!!

    Unable to Share a Data File Between Multiple Users on the Same System
    Cause The Quicken Essentials data is a data package that contains multiple files.  Each item in the package has permission set based on the current users profile.  When the Package is moved to a shared folder, the permission in the data package are not changed, therefore cannot be accessed by another user.
    You can change the permissions for each individual file within the data package to be accessed by other users.  However, the first user who opens the file after the permissions have been changed, will take ownership of the data package, and it will no longer be accessible by the other party again.
    SolutionThis issue is currently a product limitation and is expected to be resolved in a future version of Quicken Essentials for Mac.

  • IPod Classic 80GB - "iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It says it has synced but it hasn't. Help please I am not very tech minded

    iPod Classic 80GB. Message reads ' iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation'.  It says it has synced but it hasn't. Please help, I am not very tech minded.

    See this article about troubleshooting the error message regarding access privelages.  It may be preventing your iTunes library from being able to save/retain music you have recently imported to it, which may explain why no new content is being added to your device.

  • How do i resolve my itunes from saying " The itunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."

    Everytime i click to go to my itunes, the message "The Itunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." pops up. I have tried my best to fix it by adding another account to my computer and setting that one as the administator and mine as the regular user. When i did that the itunes worked on both, but when i changed my account back to administator and the other account to the regular user my account didnt work but the other one did. I also tried to uninstall and reinstall itunes. This message popped up when i tried to update the itunes to the newest one. And still it wont go away. Can someone help me please. Thanks!

  • Help! "The iTunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this application"

    I am getting the following error when trying to open iTunes: "The iTunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this application." I am logged in with the admin (and only) user account on my laptop, so I'm confused as to why this would start happening all of the sudden.
    I poked around in the control panel trying to find random options that would fix it, but nothing has. I'm running Windows 7.
    Thanks for any help!

  • I have a new PC and I am getting the message "The iTunes Library File cannot be saved.  You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."  I am the only one using this PC and I have Windows 7 Pro and have an administrator account.  Help

    Can anyone help me with this problem.  ITunes message," The iTunes library file cannot be saved.  You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."   I have administrator account and transferred files from old PC.  I downloaded new iTunes program on new PC.  I synced my iPhone to new PC, no problem.  I deleted old account after indicating shared files to new admin account.  Can anyone help?

    A belated reply, as the problems itunes has have discouraged me from using it much. If you uncheck the "read only" box, it doesn't stay that way! Next time you use it, the box comes up checked.
    I'm still having that problem, even when I open iTunes as administrator.
    I've yet to see the answer to this problem. I use itunes mostly to download audiobooks, and I'm ready to download more, and want to save them!

    Hi, DickmoAZ.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This sounds like a permission issue most likely with the iTunes Media folder.  Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue.

  • "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" error message on iTunes startup?

    So I cleaned up my Macbook recently, and now I am fearing that I may have deleted something important.
    Whenever I start up iTunes, I am met with the "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" error message. I have read forums that advised editing the Get Info page for the iTunes library to allow all users and staff to "Read/Write", but doing this has not eliminated this message.
    Any tracks that were not purchased play normally, but purchased tracks now require additional sign-in that I do not believe was required before. Other than this, iTunes performs normally.
    Did I mess something up permanentliy or is there a way to fix this?

    The problem was that my account wasn't authorized. But when I tried to authorize it, I got an error message saying that the authorization could not be completed. Thankfully, THAT was something that Apple Support had previously addressed.
    See http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1277
    Thanks, Apple.
