Library files not being saved

I have just recently began getting a msg-"The itunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." I ran a diagnostic test and it says "this user is not an administrator." Can anyone tell me how to go about fixing this problem please?

I just went into the program files and opened the iTunes folder and right clicked on the iTunes file. One of the options was to run as administrator so i clicked it and now the problem seems to be gone. Somehow my admin rights got deleted it seems. Thanks for your reply.

  • Files not being saved correctly

    I have a problem with what appears to be different versions of a file being mixed up on the server.
    A user reports that she was working on a file last night on our OS 10.4 server, after 6PM, and was having problems saving. She says the server responded as being busy; also, when she initially was opening the file it was giving various older version of the file, even though she was opening it from the the same location. This morning she says that the file is now not in the state she last saved it in, and the modification time says 5:08, even though she was working on it past 6:00. She says that after saving and closing it last night, she opened it back up again to make sure it actually did save, and it appeared to, but this morning it seems to have lost much of the changes.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can begin to solve this? How can I look at previous or other versions of the file? If you don't have any specific information that could help, could you possibly point me toward documentation that would help me in general with this situation?

    Thanks but I tried this and no longer am able to open my files. It suggests I copy them and reformat the drive. My LaCie external HD does not mount unless I restart. It shows my files, but I am unable to open them. Could it be a power cord? I've seen some mention HD not mounting because of power cord problems. I don't know how to copy the files from the external HD to a new HD if it's the problem with the whole HD.

  • Library file cannot be saved (-48)

    Many people have posted regarding issues with the iTunes Library file not being able to be saved. Usually, they show error -50, and the solution seems to be deleting all podcasts or recreating the library file. I've got a slightly different error message--in fact, I've been getting it for months--and neither of these solutions fixes the problem.
    Any other suggestions? It doesn't seem to affect things, but it's irritating as heck, and clearly indicates a problem that I can't seem to fix.

  • 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!

    The error message I get on my PC is "The ITunes library file cannot be saved" An unknown error occurred (-50)and my music library has disappeared.  I recently tried to copy a CD to my library - it appeared to copy ok but then did not appear in my music library.  The library does not show up even when my iPad is connected to my PC.  My entire library is now held on my iPad and I wish to have it in iTunes so I can sync my iPhone to it as well.  Help?

    Don't know what changed today but it downloaded and installed on the shuffle. So far so good.

  • File Options not being saved

    I appologize if this is the wrong forum, but I did a search and failed to find a related subject.
    When I click on File>Options then modify them the way I want to, then close Designer 2008 and reopen it, they're back to the default values.
    How can I retain my options even after closing designer and reopenning?
    Thanks much!

    What version of Crystal are you using?
    Are you a local PC Administrator also?
    Try right clicking on the crw32.exe and selecting Run As Administrator and then change them.
    Are you clicking the OK or Save button after making changes or simply closing the window using top right X button?
    Those options are saved to the registry, only reason they are not being saved is you don't have permission or some anti-virus software or Restore Point is writing the original settings back when you close CR.
    You may want to check with your IT people to see if they have pushed out some sort our Profile update that doesn't allow you to keep changes to the registry.
    After making the changes and you create a new report do you see the changes? Don't close the designer.
    Thank you
    Don

  • Flash CC crashes after publishing iOS app + publish settings are not being saved to file

    I have two issues:
    1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
    2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
    1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
    Since yesterday Flash CC keeps crashing right after I publish an iOS app. The app is published correctly though. I tried everything from restarting my MAC, reinstalling Flash, removing the folder "Flash CC 2014" inside Application Support/Adobe. But all this did not work.
    2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
    Since the first day I installed Flash CC, it did not save my publish settings along with the .fla-file. I never had this issue with Flash CS 5.5. This was not a very big issue, but now every time I publish an app and Flash CC crashes I have to fill in all the publish settings manually. Now I'm getting frustrated. Even saving my settings as a preset, storing it inside a folder and importing it again, won't help. Then I will get the message: "Import failed: invalid profile file."
    Can please anyone help me with these issues? It is quite time consuming to continuously enter the settings manually after every crash.
    Thanks!

  • "The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. you do not have. You do not have

    when adding songs to the library, I receive this message
    ""The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. you do not have. You do not have enough access priviledges for this operations"
    Any tips?

    Thanks for your answer. I will try to force my login as Administrator by entering in Safemode. However, I'm running a Windows Based system, and the only user in my machine is mine, and it have been defined it as Administrator, so I don't expect a different behavior if i force the administrator by Safe mode.
    will let you know.
    Any other idea?
    Does Itunes generate a Log or something that I can review and find details about that error message?

    I get this message what does it mean?
    "the itunes library file cannot be saved. you do not have enough access privileges for this operation"

    You need to have enough rights to write to the My Music folder.
    Most likely, your My Documents folder or My Music folder is missing or broken. Create the My Music folder in your My Documents, if it's not there, then use TweakUI to set it as the special My Music folder.

  • "The iTunes library file cannot be saved.You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."

    keep getting       '' the itunes library file cannot be saved. you do not have enough access privledges''  when ever i try to add or change my library, why? have tried  several suggestions on the internet to stop this from happening but with no success. i am running windows 7. has started happening since installing new security software. would this have anything to do with this problem? any suggestions

    The location of the iTunes Library file may be read-only or owned by a different user.
    Default locations:
    XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<login>\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    Vista: C:\Users\<login>\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7: C:\Users\My Music\itunes
    Right click the iTunes folder and choose Properties
    Look at the Attributes and see if Read-Only is checked.
    Uncheck it and click OK, at the apply to all subfolders and files prompt, make sure all subfolders and files is selected and click OK.
    If your iTunes library saves now you are done.
    If it does not you will need to try on each directory above the iTunes directory.
    Of course if you are not using the default locations you'll have to alter the path to the one you find in iTunes Edit->Preferences, Advanced tab.
