ITunes Won't Authorize for Automatic Downloads & Account Information Viewing

Hi,
So I've been having a problem signing into iTunes for the last few days now. First off, I've isolated the problem to my MacBook Pro and verified that Mac OS X/iTunes were both up to date. I've reinstalled iTunes and restarted. I've tried re-athorizing my computer for the Store. I've tried reseting my network configuration by deleting the NetworkInterfaces.plist. I've even tried deleting the SC Info folder. Nothing has worked. At all. What is happening is that whenever I go to authorize Automatic Downloads or to view my Account in the iTunes Store, it just keeps prompting me without ever signing in. I can see the progress bar moving to signify it's attempting to connect but it always fails to do so. Oddly enough and despite not being able to update my apps, it's actually somehow updated a few of them. Could this perhaps be a case of my ISP not having the correct ports open? At this point, I really don't know what else it could be. Anyway, this is just becoming more and more frustrating by the day. Please help!

Let me guess: you changed hardware or did major system changes? Like Windows needs to be activated again after such changes, iTunes needs too. Just deauthorise the PC and authorise again, should fix the problem.

Itunes won't search for available downloads?

I have a game on my ipad that I can't update directly from the ipad since I don't have the space. I tried and it tells me to log onto my computer and it will be avialable for download but when I go on my computer and check for available updates I get nothing. It'll search but it won't recognize any app that needs to be updated. I also have another app that's got an update availalble for it and that one doesn't come up either.
Anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

bumping it up. Anyone have any ideas what might cause this and how to get it fixed?

Itunes 10 keeps crashing and asking me to sign in for automatic downloads

Hi since upgrading to mountain lion and updated Itunes last week, every time i switch on my IMac Itunes opesn and automatically and keeps asking me to sign in to use this computer for Automatic Downloads. I can enter the password 10+ times but it still will not work.
If i select to cancel then itunes will crash and ask me if I want it to reopen. If I try to cancel/quit Itunes it just keeps trying to reopen all the time and the crashes again
Please help, my life is on Itunes

I've been having this happen as well, ever since the last update. When you download podcasts everyday, it is really annoying. Hope we can get an answer.

Can you stop the 'Sign in to use this computer for automatic downloads' window appearing at iTunes launch?

Whenever I start iTunes, two windows appear, one after the other, asking me to sign in to use the computer for automatic downloads. Even if I cancel both windows and don't sign in, automatic downloads are still enabled, as they are if I sign in on one or two of the popups. So, to the point, is there any way of disabling these windows at the start-up of iTunes? - they're useless and slow me down xD.
Incase you need it, I'm running a Lenovo G570 laptop on Windows 7 64-bit @ 3.10Ghz with 6GB RAM.
Thanks in advance!

I'm seeing the same issue as well with the most current update of iTunes (10.5.3).
What makes this even more of an issue is whenever I have to do this, iTunes Match starts syncing, but never completes, so the only way for me to see my iCloud synced music is to turn off iTunes Match, turn it back on, re-log in again, then it finally shows up about 30 seconds or so later. With each quit and re-launch of iTunes, I have to go through this whole process again to get my synced music to show.

ITunes is repeatedly asking me to 'Sign In To Use This Computer for Automatic Downloads'. How do I fix this?

I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 and using iTunes v. 12.0.1.26. Whenever I open iTunes after initially asking for my password ('Sign-in Required'), it repeatedly asks me to 'Sign In To Use This Computer for Automatic Downloads'. No matter how many times I enter the correct password it keeps popping up until I hit cancel at least 4 times. Additionally, now when I attempt to make a purchase in the iTunes store it does the same thing preventing me from purchasing anything. It repeats the 'Sign In to the iTunes Store' log-in prompt and no matter how many times I enter my CORRECT password it will not accept it. Why is iTunes doing this and how can I fix it?

I have this same problem and it drives me crazy. I've posted a topic about this, with no replies. In my case I'm pretty sure it's because in iTunes Preferences/Store/Automatic Downloads, I have Music-Apps-Books checked.
But this is what happens to me everytime I open iTunes:
Automatic Downloads password window pops up / I put in password
Immediately again, password window pops up / I put in password
Now I'm fine until I close iTunes and open again
If I don't feel like putting my password in two times and cancel, if you cancel the window 3 times, it goes away.
What I don't understand:
Why isn't the Automatic Downloads password stored in Keychain
Why does it ask for the password two times

Itunes won't load CDs automatically and I have to restart it everytime to load 1 CD. I have ensured I have latest Itunes, latest DVD driver, start itunes from program library in safe mode but nothing works. Any ideas ?

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Requesting password for automatic downloads

On opening iTunes 11.1 a message is popping up requesting my password to register for automatic downloads- how do I get rid of it?
What I have done so far without success: 1. providing my password, several times. 2. uncheck "automatic downlaods" in preferences 3. clelan uninstall and new set-up of iTunes 4. contacting telephone support 5. scratch my head
I hope there are some better suggestions!

I've been having the same problem for about a week now and it's driving me crazy. I've changed passwords in everything to reflect the new protocols (that nobody informed us about, I might add) of having at least one capital, etc. etc., but that hasn't changed anything. I do have one song pending download that WON'T download because the file at iTunes is apparently corrupt, and I can't seem to simply eliminate this one song from the queue. HELP!!!!

After downloading iphone pictures to desktop, itunes won't open. I downloaded itunes 10.6 (64bit) but get "Do you want the following program to make changes to your computer?" Apple Inc. I've clicked "yes", restarted the computer, and still no luck.

I also have the same problem, but the Software Updates tool doesn't recognise that Quicktime is out of date. Have you tried downloading Quicktime 7.7 Leopard from http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime as this worked for me...?

Just installed iOS5 and iCloud on iPod Touch, and in Settings, I can't get the on/off switch to stay on for Automatic Downloads.

I just installed iOS5 and iCloud on 4th gen iPod Touch. All is well EXCEPT that I can't get the on/off switch in "Settings" to stay on for automatic downloads of music and apps. Has anyone else had this problem? Am I missing some previous set-up step?
Thanks for your help.

to enable icloud you tap "settings" -> "icloud". Make sure you sign in with a valid iCloud Apple-ID. Then you can turn on the various features that are part of iCloud.
Video or Music Syncing is not a feature of it. Instead you use itunes in the cloud which let's you re-download purchases. This however depends if the service is available in your country.
Worldwide only purchased books and apps are supported for free-of-charge-redownload on your devices.

Data model 0G: No authorization for entity type Account (Company Code) - activity Display

Hello Expert,
I have a problem with authorization in MDG-F.
I want to create Account with Collective processing. After, entered Entity type, Edition and Chart of account, Blocking message "Data model 0G: No authorization for entity type Account (Company Code) - activity Display" is displayed.
But, i checked in PFCG transaction, for this user profil, activity are : create or generate, Change and display. So, for me , it is correct.
Please, check screen shot below :
Blocking message :
and in PFCG transaction
Could you help me to solve this point?
Kind regards,
Heri RAOELISON

Hi Heri,
the system behavior is correct. The account in company code consists of three entity types:
1) COA - Chart of Accounts (Type 3)
2) ACCOUNT - Account (A-Segment, related to ECC table SKA1, Type 1)
3) ACCCCDET - Account in Company Code (B-Segment, releated to ECC table SKB1, Type 1).
3) includes 1) and 2) whereas 2) includes 1). If you grant authorization only for 3) but not for 1) and 2), you cannot do anything.
Best regards
Michael

I had my computer repaired, and when I got it back I had to reinstall iTunes. Now iTunes won't authorize this computer because it says we already have 5 devices authorized, but this is the same computer. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Deauthorizing won't delete anything, and all your purchased content is safe. You will just have to reauthorize any of the other computers that get deauthorized along with your computers old machine id.
To get your purchased content back on that computer, just use iTunes to redownload it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US). Of course, music you ripped from CD or got from another source you'll need to copy those files back over.

If you selected "no" for automatic downloads for season passes can you change that?

Thats what I was wonderinmg and it would really help if it would.

Yeah. Open iTunes. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Store. Check "Automatically download pre-orders when available."

Authorization for material type and material views

Hello all,
I would need to restrict a user group, in creation (MM01) and modification of material master, based of type material and material views.
The authorization, for each user should be:
- view, modify and create of all views, except accounting (B) for type material ZFER;
- view, modify and create of all views for type material ZOFF.
I tried to create 2 roles in PFCG with the following authorization objects:
1) M_MATE_MAR (Material Master: Material Types) ACTVT = *, BEGRU = ZFER and M_MATE_STA (Maintenance Statuses) ACTVT = *, STATM = A,C, D, E, F, G,K, L, P, Q, S, V, X, Z (excluding B)
2) ) M_MATE_MAR ACTVT = *, BEGRU = ZFER and M_MATE_STA ACTVT = *, STATM = B
but the effect is to be authorized, to all view for material type ZFER and ZOFF.
I have already updated the authorization group of the type materials (OMS2).
Is there a solution for this problem?
(component version SAP ECC 6.0)
Thanks.
Regards,
Luca

- Are both these roles assigned to the same user? then your purpose is not solved, It is more or less like giving full authorization.
- One role should be
M_MATE_MAR (Material Master: Material Types) ACTVT = *, BEGRU = ZFER and M_MATE_STA (Maintenance Statuses) ACTVT = *, STATM = A,C, D, E, F, G,K, L, P, Q, S, V, X, Z (excluding B) for view, modify and create of all views, except accounting (B) for type material ZFER. This should be assigned to one user
- Second role should be
M_MATE_MAR ACTVT = *, BEGRU = ZOFF and M_MATE_STA ACTVT = *, STATM = * for view, modify and create of all views for type material ZOFF. This role should be assigned to the second user.

Trying to make a purchase on itunes and keep getting prompted to verify account information, when I do that, it says to fix errors, then to contact apple support, any ideas or know how to fix this?

Trying to make a purchase on itunes and keep getting prompted to verify account information. I've done this and when i click done, it says to fix errors; i repeat the process then it says to contact apple support. Any ideas or other experiences with this? I've had this happen before and it got resolved after i called them and it took a few days, not very convenient. The same thing happened when I was just trying to update my account info with a new billing / account address.
Thanks

You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
to contact the iTunes Store.
