"One or more songs are not authorized" except they all are?

I made a play list tonight that I wanted to burn to a CD for a friend. When I went to burn it, I got an error message saying "One or more of the songs in this play list are not authorized on this computer." Apple's help page said I could figure out which songs weren't authorized by trying to play them and that the unauthorized songs wouldn't play...except they all played just fine.
First I tried rebooting. Didn't help. Then I tried removing each purchased song one at a time. Didn't help. Then I removed all the purchased songs. STILL didn't help. Finally I tried burning a play list that I'd made and burned a month ago. That one burned just fine.
So I have a play list now made up exclusively of tracks that I imported into iTunes from CDs, none purchased from the iTunes store, and I'm still getting an error message that says "One or more of the songs in this play list are not authorized on this computer." ***? And more importantly, is there any way I can find out which freaking song is causing the problem without trying to burn each one individually to a separate CD?

Hi,
It seems that DCPROMO did its work without complaints, still the DFSR references remained in AD. You could refer to the article below to clean up the DFS Replication object.

  • I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer. Any ideas?

    I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer, although they are in the iTunes library on the computer and will play. It's these songs that won't transfer to the iPod. I have deauthorized and re-authorized the computer but no joy. Any ideas?

    Hello there DesertRat71,
    I was thinking that some of the songs in your library may have been purchased under a different apple id. You have already done the first thing I would have done by de authorizing and re authorizing. To verify this, highlight one of the songs that will not sync over and use File>Get Info. Here is the help menu link for it if you need it help://bookmark='https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/11.0/help/index.html?localePa th=English.lproj#itns2937'
    In the Summary section there will be an Apple ID entry. If it shows something different than what you are currently using then I recommend signing into the Apple ID it shows and authorizing the computer for that one as well.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Songs are not authorized

    when try to synch, i get a message that some songs are not authorized. yet when i authorize my computer it says it is alredy one of my authorized computers

    This may not apply to you, but make sure you're using the iTunes Store account under which the tracks were purchased. Often people forget that some tracks were purchased from a different account. Select a track that won't sync, Get Info (under the File menu), and it will show you the account name through which it was purchased. Make sure you've authorized your computer using that account ID and password.
    If it is, and these are new tracks that you haven't played in iTunes, try playing them in iTunes for at least a few seconds and then try synching. Sometimes the authorization doesn't "take" until the track have been played once.
    Hope this helps.

    I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
    Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
    No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.

  • Since I downloaded iTunes 11, I get a message when syncing my iPod that some of my songs were not copied because they are not authorized on this computer,  I go to Store Authorize This Computer, a message pops up telling me that this computer is already.

    Since I downloaded iTunes 11, I get a message when syncing my iPod that some of my songs were not copied because they are not authorized on this computer,  I go to Store> Authorize This Computer, a message pops up telling me that this computer is already.

    So I am unclear, did you purchase these songs or import them from a cd?
    If you imported them and still have the CD try importing them again and see if they work the delete the others.
    Or if you purchased from itunes re-dowwnload and see if they work. Maybe they are corrupted files and this should resove it.

  • Eric Clapton Album Won't Sync "You are not Authorized"

    Hi, I need some help. I just got my new mac mini, and im very happy with it. However, all my music, except my Eric Clapton album is syncing. It's giving me messages like, "The following items including "ride the river" were not synced to <ipod name> because you are not authorized to play them on this computer. I authorized the computer several times, and it still won't work. help!

    Hello, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You may wish to right click on the song, choose get info, in the General Tab it will give you info about the song and who bought it. Is your Apple ID the one who bought the song? If not then this is why it is not copying over.

  • Every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad and the message I get is this: some of the items in the itunes library, including were not copied to the ipad because you are not authorized for them on this computer... help?

    For a couple months now, every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad giving me the error: "some of the items in the iTunes library, including were not copied to the iPad because you are not authorized for them on this computer". I have read many forums about deleting, reinstalling, de-authorizing and authorizing my iMac through the iTunes store. Many suggestions don't work except to rename the movie to *.MP4 in Finder under the iTunes movie directory. I imagine this is a setting or a bug somewhere... any suggestions on how to bypass having to rename the files in Finder? My research into Google suggests this problem dates back to 2007 or so but it is now more prevalent than ever.
    Thanks.

  • We could not complete your iTunes Store request. You are not authorized to access the requested resource.

    Over the past year, when using iTunes Radio on my iMac, I keep getting the following message: "We could not complete you iTunes Store request. You are not authorized to access the requested resource. There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later." This only happens on my Mac, not on my iPad.
    I looked at the Apple Support Communities and the most common workaround is to click on Store/Authorize this Computer. After entering my Apple ID password, the response is "This computer is already authorized." Well, duh. But at least the iTunes Radio starts to work for awhile.
    There are other workarounds, but none is easier than the one I just mentioned. But my question is, when will Apple fix this problem? It's just annoying.

  • While running tcode vn01, getting message you are not authorized

    Hi friends,
    one of the end while running tcode vn01 is getting message you are not authorized to use this function, earlier it was working fine and still it is working fine in quality, so please suggest what might be the problem,
    Regards,
    Tarun

    Dear Friends,
    Thanks a lot for your help, my problem has been resolved.
    let me once again explain you what was the problem and how it got resolved.
    Problem: when user was running tcode vn01, he use to enter the very first screen of vn01 but with pop up that u are not authorized to use this function.
    although he was having the authorization for this tcode.
    Solution: i gave sap_all to the user and after giving sap_all his problem got resolved, so it become confirmed that its only authorization problem
    then i removed sap_all, checked related object of vn01 i.e s_number and its calling snum, i gave the authorization for snum and rnro but still he was facing the same problem
    Then i created new role with only vn01 and assigned to my user id it was working fine, so i assigned the same role to that user but again his problem didn't resolved, then i created the copy of user and started removing roles one by one, other and for the role having vn01 authorization, by doing this problem got resolved and the role which was blocking vn01 to run come into picture, so i thought some tcode might be blocking this but it was not the case the role itself was blocking that tcode because i created the copy of the same role which was blocking vn01 and assinged to user then it was working fine and problem got resolved.
    so what it concluded that might me the profile of that role was not created properly or may be it got corrupted or might be bug in ecc6.0
    Thanks to all friends who contributed for the same.
    i am posting one more question, please help me out in that also

  • When I try to launch terminal, i get an error "You are not authorized to run this applicationThe administrator has set your shell to an illegal value."

    When I try to launch terminal, i get an error "You are not authorized to run this applicationThe administrator has set your shell to an illegal value."

    If you'd asked a question in your original post it might have solicited more pertinent responses. As it is, you were stating a fact. No one knew whether you considered that fact a problem, or what you were hoping to gain by doing so.
    The simple addition of 'can anyone help me fix this so I can run Terminal' would have counted for a lot.
    As it is, your solution is likely to require the Terminal, so you're going to need to fix that one way or another. The simplest would be to create a new admin account (System Preferences -> Users & Groups) then log in using that account.
    Then try and launch the terminal. If that works the problem is specific to your original account and can likely be fixed via some command-line tweaking. I'd start with:
    dscl . read /Users/<username>
    (where <username> is the short name of the account having a problem). This will show the records in the directory data for your account, one of which will be UserShell. Chances are that value is invalid, or missing, and can be corrected via:
    sudo dscl . -change /Users/<username> UserShell <currentValue> /bin/bash
    (where <currentValue) is the current setting for UserShell) which will change the user's shell to /bin/bash (the default).
    Of course, you might already know this and already tried, but since you didn't say so in your original post it's worth checking.

  • Itunes cancels burns because "you are not authorized"

    Update to my question posted 23 June 2007. I continue to have the same problem with syncing my ipod that I described in my original post. I have to "authorize" the (already authorized) computer every time I connect my ipod while itunes starts erasing the ipod, then sync again to replace the tracks that were erased. Annoying but not impossible.
    Just d/l'd itunes 8. Problem is now worse. I am unable to burn a CD of a recently purchased song because "you are not authorized". I've tried authorizing the PC. I've tried de-authorizing and then re-authorizing computer. itunes invariably tells me I've successfully authorized, then tells me I'm not authorized when I try to burn the CD.
    Would love to hear suggestions before I waste another morning on the phone with tech support!

    Just ran into this myself, not having synced since May. Came on line to find the answer myself. Even more complicated, out of a list of 100 songs that it told my I was not authorized to play on this computer, some of them are actually still on my ipod (thank god), but now I'm afraid to resync for fear I will lose them or other items. Sorry I don't have the answer. I came looking for the answer myself. Could you, however, help me with how you are trying to "re-authorize" your computer, as I do not even know how to do that. Thanks.
