Itunes keeps asking me for a user name and password when I first open it.

I do not allow apple to access my library or my hard drive because you guys are predators, and I have NO interest in using the app store.  I have disabled access to the store, so i do not know why it keeps asking me for a user name and password.  You have NO right to see the music THAT I PURCHASED a loooooooooong time ago.  It is my license. I should be able to play it whenever and wherever I like...and NO, I do not burn and copy my music.  I just want to play it on MY MACHINES. So, I do not need your useless snooping, which is probably the reason you want me to log in.  Who do you think you are? You didn't write the songs.  You just sell licenses. Period.  And I purchased mine, thank you.  I no longer use your store for these reasons.  I use Amazon.

Not control-R. Command-R. Shut the computer down. Reboot it. Hold down cmd-R when you hear the chime. Keep it held down and you should see the Lion recovery partition.

    If you have music that was purchased on different iTunes accounts than the one you use, then you must provide the password, otherwise the tunes are not considered yours.  You can turn off iCloud and just use the usual USB sync method.  But I wonder whether you'll have the same problem?

    I want to download the new updates I think to the 10.9 but our mac was given to us and when it comes to the last page it asks for the user name and password but this mac was wiped clean. How do I find out this info so I can get iPhoto? To be honest I'm not even sure what type of Mac I have and don't know how to find out what kind it is
    I'd also like to make address labels and don't know where to find that either

    You would make address lables with the Contacts app.
    If you don't have the user name and password used to set up the machine then you need to purchase the apps for yourself.

  • I just switched to Charter. When going to Mozilla Firefox a box appears saying, Authentication Required and asks for a User name and Password. What do I do?

    I switched from CenturyTel to Charter. I can't use Firefox because a box appears asking me for Authentication Required, User Name and Password. When I hit cancel, this message appears:
    HTTP 401 - Unauthorized
    Authorization is required to access the configuration server.
    You must enter the correct username and/or password.
    When I called Charter, they told me they recommended using Internet Explorer. I told them I didn't want IE, I preferred Firefox. They recommended I go to your support page, so here I am. :o)

    Have you reset the password recently for the email account?
    A real simple fix usually is to delete the mail account (settings < mail contacts calendars, tap the affected account and choose delete at the bottom) Then re add the account.

  • I reinstalled my mac os x, and anytime i try to update my software its asking me for an administrators name and password, i enter it and it comes back wrong, and that is the only one i have, i have been to keychain but it does not make any sense to me,

    i have just reinstalled my mac os x, in fact yesterday, i have not been able to update my software or change anything at all, i try to do a software update and it is asking me for an administrators username and password that was not happening before, i enter the username and password i created and it comes back wrong, its driving me nuts, been to keychain but unable to figure it out, its asking for a system unlock and i have no clue what that is.
    am desperate.

    Stick the 10.6 disk into the computer and reboot holding the c or option key down, select the disk to boot from.
    In the installer menu is a Utiltiies menu and a password reset.
    If you don't remmember the name, reboot the computer holding the command and s keys down
    a black screen with white type appears, when it's finished, dbackspace any extra ssss you have made and then type
    ls /Users
    (that's Larry, Sam, space, slash, Users)
    and press return, a list of user names on the machine appears
    type exit and reboot and use the 10.6 disk to reset your password

  • Invalid User Name and Password when logging onto BPM Workspace (v9.3.1)

    I have installed Hyperion Planning and the related/required products. When I attemp to log on to Workspace, I get the following message;
    'You must supply a valid User Name and Password to log onto the system."
    I have tried using the native 'admin' account, and an NTLM account that I have setup. Both of these accounts work for logging onto the the User Management Console and to the Essbase Administration Console, and I have provisioned both of them with full admin privileges.
    Has anyone encountered this issue?
    Thanks,
    -K

    Thank you all for the responses so far.
    On the first response, I had already provisioned an NTLM user that is a member of the local Administrators group with all administrative roles, and also refreshed security in EAS prior to submitting this inquiry, so that did not solve the problem.
    On the second, I cannot navigate to ../workspace/browse/configinfo without logging in so I am unable to review this information.
    On the third response, where do you provision the user to BI+? If I open the User Management Console, there are four root roles each with a tree underneath: APS 9.3.1 Server, Analytic Servers, Business Rules, and Hyperion Shared Services. Under each tree, I have provisioned the 'admin' user and the NTLM user for all roles, including Administrator, Dimension Editor and Application Creator under Hyperion Shared Services -> Global Roles. Should there be a BI+ tree? If so, it is not appearing on the list.
    Thanks for any additional info anyone can provide.

  • I have changed my computer three times and I'm having trouble playing previously purchased/downloaded songs. itunes is prompting me for my user id and password everytime I click on those songs I had puchased. I had also changed my user id

    I appreciate any help or assistance you can share with me. thank you very much.

    Because too much time has passed I can't edit this into the prior comment, but here is the info regarding reverting to iTunes 11.0.2 (assuming you do have a time machine backup) from https://discussions.apple.com/message/22057703#22057703

    Repairing permissions doesn't fix it.
    I reverted to the previous version, 11.0.2.
    1. Quit the new crash-prone iTunes.
    2. Delete the app.
    3. Restore v. 11.0.2 with Time Machine.
    4. In your iTunes folder look for a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries", find the latest one.
    5. In the iTunes folder itself you'll see "iTunes Library.itl", delete it (or compress it and save a copy for later just in case.
    6. Copy the newest .itl file in Previous iTunes Libraries to the iTunes folder and rename it "iTunes Library.itl".
    7. Launch the older version of iTunes.
    My crashing has seemed to have ceased with a revert to an older version. I noticed today that the newer crashing iTunes had been launched for hours but not playing anything, when I played internet radio it crashed within 5mins, fed up I reverted to an older version.
    Btw, a simpler way to do this is to revert to older iTunes app, then hold Option when it launches and choose an older library.

  • "Invalid user name and password" when synchronizin...

    I am getting an "Invalid user name or password" error on E71 after changing password on both Ovi.com web site and in sync profile on E71. Yes, I did make sure to enter the correct password into my ovi.com sync profile on the E71.
    E71 Aficionado

    I agree.  I'm in the same region of the U.S. as you (McLean VA), and I bought the E71 unlocked so I could use my T-Mobile SIM and number with it.  Another plus is it works just about anywhere in the world.
    As regards software, a lot of it just doesn't work (a la Ovi sync). There are some very nice third party apps, such as Joikuspot (WLAN anywhere) and Goosync (when it works, it's a good Google services sync tool). I am addicted to Comedy 104 on its internet radio application, and Mobbler is a pretty good way to get a last.fm-like experience on the phone.
    Shame on Nokia for releasing a not-ready for prime time service, then not supporting it.  Very Microsoft-like!

  • Prompted for lpadmin group name and password when adding printer

    I was running into a prompt to enter an lpadmin group name and password whenever I tried to do any printing, so I decided to go ahead and reset my printer list. Now I'm trying to add my local printer to the list and I'm still getting the same prompt.
    I found this solution: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2754
    on the Apple website, but it's not working for me.
    Perhaps it's because I'm unfamiliar with working in Terminal, but I'm entering the text exactly as it's written on the support page
    dseditgroup -o edit -p -a(affected_username) -t user _lpadmin
    with, of course, my username substituted for the "(affected_username)" but I'm getting an error message in Terminal that says:
    syntax error near unexpected token `('
    Any suggestions or help? It would be much appreciated!

    Looking at the command again step 3 says to replace "(affected_username)". Since the parenthesis are included in the quotes try leaving them out as well.

  • Prompt for user name and password when opening an application like Internet Explorer

    Hi
    I often use Internet Explorer using "Run as different user".  This is achieved by holding 'Shift' and right clicking the IE icon.  This is the main reason why I use IE as my default browser is Chrome.  Signing in as a different user
    is helpful when troubleshooting/customising certain applications such as Dynamics CRM.
    Is there away to force IE to always ask for credentials when I open it?  
    Marc Collins www.QGate.co.uk

    Hi GTS-NJ
    This was my first thought.  The problem I found is it requires a particular user.  I need to be flexible with the users I sign in with.
    I may have the answer though.  I have changed the security settings for trusted sites to always prompt for username and password.  I have added my sites to trusted sites.  Now when I browse to the site, it prompts me to sign in.

  • How to keep from losing connection to firefox and reentering user name and password when I close a message in my e-mail that I have read

    I use firefox for e-mail and am unsure how to close a message without losing the connection to firefox. Then I need to go through the tedious task of entering my username and password everytime I am finished reading the message and close it. How can I close the message without losing connection to firefox? Also, when I select "save my password" at the sign in page it never saves the information. Why not?

    You're welcome.
    You could always get a Gmail account(free), set that up as IMAP or Exchange, then forward all of the mail from your POP account to your Gmail account.

  • Support for forgotten user name and password

    Forgot username and password to access my account. Followed directions for assistance. Was assured that we would receive a telephone call with a code shortly. Three hours later, not having received the code in a short period of time, I sent another request for assistance and was again assured that a telephone call providing us with a code would be provided in a short time.. Seven hours after the first call, at 4:30 a.m., we were called with a code in response to our first first request. One half hour later, 5:00 a.m., our second request was responded to. In neither case would I consider the response time short as your communication suggested. And to be receiving telephone calls in the middle of the night is not acceptable. I would hope that you can find another way of providing the assistance you offer.
