Preferences do not lock in after I make changes

I hope someone can help me on this! Thanks in advance.
I changed my ITunes Import Setting Preferences this afternoon - big mistake because it started downloading music at 10MB/per minute. I changed it back to AAC Encoder, High Quality (128 kbps) but it is still trying to download at 10MB/per minute. It is acting like the change wasn't made although it was.
I have tried deleting the pref.xml file and starting over but that didn't work.
This is very frustrating - any suggestions?
Thank you!

Try to Update iTunes to it's latest verison or either re-install it & do the same for sync.

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    I'll presume that you can adjust the brightness after bootup. If that display preference is kept in PRAM, it's possible that the PRAM battery is wearing out.
    Here's what Apple says about what's stored in PRAM:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1242
    To test that possibility, turn off "Set date and time automatically" in the Date & Time panel of System Preferences (if it's set), shut down and unplug your Mac, then let it sit for a few minutes. When you reboot it, check the system date and time. If the PRAM battery is failing, those may be set incorrectly.
    iFixit describes replacing the PRAM battery of an iMac G5 as of "moderate" difficulty. See these pages:

  • I am getting an error when trying to download  the new Game of Thrones shows. The error is err = -61 You do not have the privilege to make changes. (err = -61) you do not have the privilege  to make changes. I have not had this problem before

    Solution:
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select your external hard disk and run a “verify” on it. After a few minutes (depending on the size of your drive), you should be good to go. You don’t need to run a “repair” on it... (at least I didn’t have to). See photo for reference.
    This should fix the permissions issue, because on my Mac running Mountain Lion I was unable to edit the permissions in the get info dialog window even after "unlocking" the drive.

  • R12-oafm, forms and oacore not starting up after IP adress change

    Heloo my friend;
    I had problem while i changed my server IP...when i start adstrtall.sh script its end wiht :
    adstrtal.sh: Exiting with status 3 and adoafmctl.sh: exiting with status 204 ...soo my login page doesnt come to explorer and it gives HTTP 404 page not found error
    So here is the solution:
    Cause
    The OC4J lock files contains the IP adress, after the ip adress change the lock files includes the wrong Ip adress which caused the OJ4J to fail
    Solution
    1 - open a new shell and set your apps environment
    2 - cd $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME
    3 - adopmnctl.sh stop
    4 - check if it is really down: ps -ef grep grep opm
    5 - delete the following:
    rm -fr $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/oacore/persistence/*
    rm -fr $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/oafm/persistence/*
    rm -fr $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/forms/persistence/*
    6 - adopmnctl.sh start
    7 - check if the issue has been resolved: adapcctl.sh status
    I hope its helpful

  • "You do not have the privilege to make changes."

    When I try to download songs I've purchased from iTunes, I get an error saying, "You do not have the privilege to make changes."  It's like the iTunes store thinks I'm trying to download the music to another account, but it's not.  Any ideas? 

    Well mine is now ok.
    I noticed that my iPhoto library  (on an external disk) was not allowing write access and the drive had become locked, so to test, I migrated my library back to the main drive and set iPhoto to open that as the main library. I performed a sync with iTunes and all has gone trough fine.
    Makes me happpy, as my next step was to factory reset the phone.

  • ITunes 8: You do not have the privilege to make changes

    After upgrading to iTunes 8 I get this error when syncing my iPhone.
    The iPhone "..." cannot be synced. You do not have the privilege to make changes.
    I restored my iPhone hoping this would fix the issue but the error still happens.
    Please help!

    I am getting this after upgrading to 8.02 but with my iPod, not my iPhone.
    I deauthorized the computer and then authorized it. No effect.
    I am also suspicious that my iPhone updates are not being applied correctly, though no error is appearing.
    This reminds me of authorization problems with the iphone that I have documented previously.
    I will blog on this problem here:
    http://tech.kateva.org/2008/11/has-iphone-22-created-new-class-of.html
    I know Apple has had authentication problems with legacy .mac customers. We're people who's purchases are tied to our .mac address, but we left .mac long before the .me switch.
    I think Apple may have unique authentication problems with this group.

  • The ipod cannot be synced. you do not have the privilege to make changes

    My ipod gets half way though the this message, ipod cannot be synced. you do not have the privilege to make changes.
    What to do?

    After searching this issue out and trying a bazillion different things (with no luck), I deselected 'Enable Disk Use' then re-enabled, and everything is working now.
    Dear Apple -- What is up with that?

  • How to fix a -61 error on iTunes? (I do not have the privilege to make changes)

    I got a new iMac. When I try to download songs on iTunes, it comes up that I do not have the privilege to make changes (-61 error). How do I fix this?

    Um, it is difficult to be more specific than the link I posted, completely with nice picture of what things should look like .  You get info on the iTunes folder and click the little triangles next to your name until the read and write combination appear, then apply to enclosed items, then close the window.

  • "Error has occurred... You do not have the privilege to make changes."

    When I try to import anything into my library, I get this error message-
    "Error occurred while converting the file "song name here". You do not have the privilege to make changes."
    My i Tunes library is located in an external hard drive, but this has caused no problems before, nothing has changed in my system.
    Any ideas?

    Found someone else replying to a similar problem and this is what they said...Not sure if this will help but I am trying!
    (Thanks to JollyGiant)
    Check if you have read & write permissions on your iTunes folder.
    in finder, right-click on it and get info. unlock the little padlock (you may have to enter your admin password) and change the permission settings. next, click on the little gear-shaped icon and apply to enclosed items like so
    http://www.renewedvision.com/ProPresenterHelp/pgs/images/faqpppermissions.jpg
    you may also give everyone read & write access. if this doesn't help, try the same on your iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder).
