ITunes not asking for passcode lock when connecting

Just seen this on the Apple site:
"+If you protect your iPhone or iPod touch with a passcode, you will be prompted to enter the passcode when you connect to iTunes. Once you successfully enter the passcode, iTunes will recognize that device as authorized and you will not require your passcode to back up or sync+."
I never get asked to enter a passcode when I connect my iPhone to iTunes. Ever.
I didnt think it was a problem until I read this. Should I be getting prompted?

You may need to connect the iPod in Recovery Mode and then restore it via iTunes. See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into Recovery Mode.;

Why does my G5 not ask for my pswd when mounting a .dmg when my iBook does?

i have an app on a disk that i am trying to put on my iMac G5. it opens but does not ask for my password. when i click the installer it goes through a couple stages but then says "there is nothing to open". so, i take this disk and put it in my iBook, it opens and i get the prompt asking for my password, i type it in, click the installer and the app installs no problem. i've opened apps from a disk before on my iMac with no problems. i get the same error response if i use the diskmounter or disk utility. if anyone has any ideas i'd be almost next to eternally grateful.
cheers.

Why does iTunes keep asking for my password when I want to listen to my music on my iPhone?

When I want to listen to music on my iPhone, iTunes keeps asking for my password. I am not purchasing anything. It started today. Why is that?

I've been having the same problem on my iPad and iPhone. I talked to Apple customer service this morning. They had me do the following on both devices in the Settings:
* Sign out of iTunes & App Store
* Sign out of FaceTime
* Sign out of Game Center
* Delete iCloud account
They also had me restore my iPad due to some glitchy behavior in the Music app.
Things seemed to me fixed for a few hours until I went into the iTunes Store app on my iPad and added a movie to my Wish List. When I went back to the Music app, the dreaded "Sign In to iTunes Store" popup started showing up again on both devices. Suspicious!
So, I cleared out my Wish List in both the iTunes Store and App Store. I've been poking at the Music app on both my iPhone and iPad since then I haven't seen that popup once since then. I'm not going to declare victory yet since it's only been an hour or two, but I thought that this was worth mentioning.

Nm-applet ask for root passwd when connecting to a new wireless networ

Hi,
I just installed Archlinux and I have some trouble with network-manager-applet: it asks for the root passwd when I try to connect first time to a wireless network. After giving the root passwd and the required wireless authentication, nm connects with no problem, and saves the connection as a system one, so there is no problem at connecting second time.
I have read the wiki, and I know that it should be some consolekit or policykit problem. I use gdm3 as displaymanager, so it should take care of consolekit, and I have the Policykit Authentication Agent ( gnome-polkit ) in my startup applications ( by the way, I use Xfce, 32bit ), so there should not be need for explicit grant permissions for the users.
At least in my openSUSE box there is no polkit configuration file which contains
[nm-applet]
Identity=unix-group:network
Action=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.*
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=no
ResultActive=yes
, but the nm-applet is usable without root access.

I think that if you search /var/lib/polkit-1 and /etc/polkit-1/ for
Action=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager
on your openSUSE.
You will find a rule that permits you to connect.

Why does the new itunes not pull up my iphone when connected to the computer?

I just downloaded the new Itunes 11 on my computer and when i plug my phone in it does not bring it up in itunes. it was trying to bring it up in real player so i uninstalled that and it still wont show in itunes. i have restarted my computer and phone multiple times as well ad uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and nothing is working.

Thanks for your input but as i have said it is a Motorola V3i (The i means itunes compatable). I have uninstalled and re-installed every old version of itunes there is and it works perfect from itunes 5 up to itunes 9 then it goes wrong and does not recognise my device allowing me to sync. I am happy with itunes 9 but it will not allow me to keep it without updating it to itunes 11. The phone is recognised by the comp and appears in devices. Any further ideas will be welcome. Thanks

My apple tv does not ask for a password after connecting to wifi

I'm not tech savey at all!! I've just hooked up my apple tv. it connects to wifi but doesn't prompt me for a password. The wifi is password protected. Any ideas?

Unfortunately as AppleTV does not have a web browser it can't show that webpage to connect.
Just to be sure I assume this is a webpage with a company name of the wifi supplier for thata area/group of residences asking you to login using some credentials and accept terms and conditions, not a configuration page for a router or similar?
You might be able to share an internet connection from a computer over ethernet but sometimes the terms of these connections prohibit that.

Charged for items I did not ask for and refuse to refund

I signed up for a bundle back in Sept of 08, which during that time I called a few times because I was charged for channels I did not want or sign up for, they did refund those or at least parts. However now I notice that I am being charged for 6.99 home wire maintence, I did not ask for this, so I called and they said we can't refund that, I asked how long it had been and they said since sept of 08 when I signed up...however vz signed me up for paperless statements, I did not ask for that and when I look at my bill online I cannot see the wire charge unless I go to download paper bill, i thought they were the same thing as what I was seeing online, so I never loked at them- they refuse to give me my money back - they said they sent a welcome letter when I signed up witht his on it, I did not see anything about this. Anyone else have a similar problem? My friends have all had over charges with their bundles. But I do realize this goes way back, but these charges where soemthing I had to basically hunt for, they were not on my online bill that I normally see. Their supervisers refuse to help, any suggestions how to get my money back? They should not be allowed to do this to people?

Hi aa16346....hmmm? allow me to contact billing for you in order to come to a resolution. In a private message please send me your billing account number so I can look into this for you. Sorry for this frustration. Allow me to help, thanks.

Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons on iPhone until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware.

I would appreciate your help on how to configure a gmail in a way it ask for the password everytime I connect?. In the only way I can configure it I have to include the pw when configuring the account and after that it do not ask for pw so everyone that shares my iPad can oppen my mail with no pw required.
Thank

The iPad is designed to be a single user device, and there is currently no way to password protect the Mail app - even removing the account password from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars will just prevent new mail being downloaded, it won't hide those that have already been downloaded. There is this work-around for the app : https://discussions.apple.com/message/13127632#13127632 . Also there might be third-party email apps that feature password protecting.
