Itunes on my McBook Pro keeps asking me the password and I cannot get access to the account

Hello,
I need to change my account payment information but I cannot connect to my account from the itunes of my MacBook Pro because it keeps asking the password even if it is correct.
How can I solve this?
Thanks for the help,
Daniele Reghellin

Oh reghe, I'm sincerely sorry that my workaround didn't work for you. Thank you for your appreciation. That's most kind of you, considering the sadness that we both feel about now. There is an old Japanese proverb that seems fitting here, "Fall down seven times, get up eight".
Nonetheless, I assure you, reghe, the very same fix has worked time & again for myself & for many others too. It's really not even a fix, it's just routine maintenance & the 3 steps that I gave you to do with Disc Utility have been safely done by thousands upon thousands of people over the years. Anyone can do those 3 steps in Safe Mode or in Regular Mode. I just prefer Safe Mode because it prevents any possible interference from anything 3rd party (meaning not from Apple).
Since you asked, when you startup your computer & hold down the shift key until there's nothing left to do besides sign-in, it will show ‘Safe Boot’ in red, right there on your sign-in screen. Then you can do the maintenance w/Disc Utility, restart into Regular Mode & go. Remember that in cases such as this I believe that signing into the ASC first yields a cookie from Apple in your browser (such as the one identifying this discussion) which helps you sign into other things Apple such as iTunes.
I'm really trying not to go on & on as I know you asked for brevity, but the 3 steps with Disc Utility that I outlined for you are actually considered routine maintenance (in either Mode) & have a history of being recommended after each & every update of Apple's software.  I'm not sure why it did not work but it may be related to running Mavericks rather than Snow Leopard as your post stated.
I think it would be best for you to start another thread & simply ask the very same question. Someone with more expertise than I will see it & help you. Finally, reghe, I am 100% positive that my recommendations did no harm.
As you can imagine, things are extremely busy right now here at the ASC because of the recent releases of iPhone 6 and iOS 8; however, another ASC Member will help you; we are volunteers; but we are legion.
Best Regards,
mm

  • Yahoo Mail: on Mac Pro (keeps asking for my password and then doesn't work)

    I have used Yahoo Mail through my Mac Pro Mail Account for years and enjoyed fine service.
    For the last few months, the Mac Mail says I have the wrong password, and it won't allow me to access
    mail.
    If I change the password, it will work for a while (days) and the cycle starts all over again.
    Sometimes, I stop using Mac Mail and use Yahoo off the web, and then suddenly Mac Mail will start working
    on its own again.
    I read a thread for earlier in the year and tried every single thing suggested - this still happens
    I have used Yahoo mail for 22 years - but maybe it is time to switch?
    Gmail never has this problem...but I use the Yahoo mail for my business, my friends, and groups.
    Anyone with a working solution?
    PS: My Yahoo email ALWAYS 100% of the time works on my iphone, and ipad...this only happens on my Mac Pro.

    You don't have a Mac Pro (*65lb tower) but a notebook.
    There is a support page and setup wizard to help plus links to support articles and community.
    you may have to rebuild mail index or see if you can export, (re)move the existing mail folder and setup a new one and import old mail. Mail does and can have its issues for sure.

  • Ever since I updated to Yosemite my mac book pro keeps asking for Apple Id and password but will not accept them

    Ever since I updated to Yosemite my mac book pro keeps asking for Apple Id and password but will not accept them.  What can I do?

    Try the advice here. I had the same problem and it worked for me.
    You have to delete the "SC Info" folder from /Users/Shared. You will have to use Terminal to enable you to see this folder first. Make sure iTunes is not running when you delete the "SC Info" folder
    There is an article from Apple on this here. The "SC Info" folder contains iTunes authorization information.
    I did this two weeks ago and iTunes accepted by login. I haven't been asked for my AppleID or password since.

    This occurred only after installing a new Wifi router from Qtel (service provider). any assisyance is greatly appreciated.

    You should call Qtel technical support and ask for help.
    Where did you get the password that you are trying? What does it look like? (Length, type of characters)

    Hi Meganmay22,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the iPhone is in a status called Activation Lock. Please use the following article for information on Activation Lock; it includes information on locating your Apple ID.

  • ITunes keeps asking for my password, and every time I go to look at my account info it says my session has timed out?

    I'm trying to change my payment information, yet everyime it asks for my password, I'll enter it but it just keeps asking? And when it finally gets through and I click on payment information, it says my session has timed out. How can I fix this? I've tried to do it on multiple devices but it's happening on all of them.

  • My new MacBook Pro keeps asking for my password in any application that I am in. I transferred from old Mac Pro via Time Machine

    My new MBP will randomly ask for my password. It doesn't matter what application I am in, it could be in the middle of watching a dvd. The window will pop up.This is my second MBP, my last one kept crashing, and it was finally replaced. Can anyone help, please?
    Thanks

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select

  • My email address has changed on iphone, but the orignal old email address keeps popping up for password and I cannot reset it as my old email address was hijacked and closed.  How can i use my current email address for all iphone functions?

    I have iphone4s with the operating system of 8.1.  I changed my email address which was used to register my iphone due to hijacking.  I am able to read all my emails using the new address.  However, I can not download apps as it keep asking me to provide the password for the original registered email address.  I do not have the access to the email address, so I can not retreive the password.  I want to clear this mess by resetting everything, and register my current email address as the only one to communicate on my iphone.  Please teach me how?

    settings - app/iTunes store - sign out and sign back in with your new id.
    Note - if your older apps needs an update it will use your old apple id and password, as Apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.
    You can't merge apple id.

    You have the misfortune of having a model identifier 6.2 MBP that is experiencing GPU problems.  There was a replacement program on these units, but that has expired.
    The solution is to have the logic board replaced, but that will be at your expense.
    A temporary solution is to download this application which will allow you to disengage the discrete GPU and run only on the integrated one.  Graphics performance will be degraded.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
