Touch inaccessible & iTunes store loop NOT the original issue

I've been suffering that nag screen for weeks but its now changed so that it doesn't return the error just a never ending loop of being presented with the iTunes store! There's literally no way out of it.
Syncing via right clicking the Touch doesn't solve the problem as right clicking doesn't actually present the Touch front page so I can't change any settings or add any video which I have been doing manually.
Any ideas?
Touch 1.1.3
iTunes 7.6
10.5.2

Thanks but that's not a solution - Apple have to fix this as until yesterday when I declined the apps there was the error message and the Touch was available. Apple have changed something and the error message isn't generated, instead there's an OK screen (let's leave aside the issue that Apple isn't respecting my choice to decline) and the only exit from it is to the iTunes store... repeatedly.
Now I can't get in and I think, like most people, I multi-task and its simply not convenient to unplug my router to sync my Touch there's too much going on at any time and I'm quite likely to need to do it more than once a day.
[Ignore the ref to 10.5.2 in the OP as I'm syncing with my iMac]

Why are the original movie soundtrack not included by default when I buy movies from the iTunes Store, Why are the original movie soundtrack not included by default when I buy movies from the iTunes Store

I assumed that the original soundtrack was part of the movie when I bought a dubbed movie (danish in my case), as is the case with DVD and Blueray movies. Apparently it is not...

Ha, ha, you are such a tool!
That profile was written in 2007 and never updated. Unlike you, I don't live on this forum. I have one 5 year old Dell gathering dust, waiting for the trash that has some kids software on it my kids never use.
Currently I own a 27 inch iMac, and a 21 inch iMac used by my wife. I just sold my MacBook Air, which replaced my MacBook Pro of two years ago. I have an AppleTV v2, and unfortunately gave my AppleTV v1 to a friend before I realized they stripped out the movie purchase feature. We also own an iPad, two iPhones, and 4 iPods, two of which are used as digital music storage for our cars.
So yes, all of my factual posts concerning Apple's shocking decision to try to hide the fact they removed significant functionality from AppleTV when they revved it, are just driven by the fact that 4 years ago I used almost no apple products. Apparently I harbor a twisted desire to hurt the company that provides me almost all of my technology of choice today, despite being an early software developer for the Mac, helping start two Macinotosh software companies in the 1980s and 1990s, and working at Apple for 2 years in the early 90s.
The truth is, Apple's products weren't so good 15 years ago so I gradually switched to Windows for professional reasons. About 4 years go I bought an iPhone, and started to wake up to the fact that Apple had done a tremendous job moving the Mac platform to the intel architecture, and was very happy to replace my crappy dells with Apple products.
But that doesn't mean I wear blinders when their product teams and marketing department makes mistakes, or does something deceptive.

Songs Purchased on iPod Touch WiFi iTunes Store Will not Sync Back to PC

I bought a few songs on the WiFi iTunes store on my iPod Touch today. When I connect the iPod to the computer, it syncs as normal, but the songs I bought are not transferring over. I tried right clicking on the iPod section and pressed "Transfer Purchases" but still nothing happened. The songs are still on the iPod, the computer is just for some reason not seeing them.
Help?

When Apple designed the first iPod, they decided to screw people over by making sure the iPod could not be used as a mobile storage/transfer device. To summarize, Apple made it so that an iPod with a lot of music can't transfer its music to an empty iTunes library as to keep people from getting music for free. (Obviously, Limewire was not created at that time.)

IPad iOS 6 WiFi, iMessage and iTunes store problems - not the usual

When I first updated my iPad 3 to iOS 6, everything ran relatively smoothly. Then the problems started piling on, beginning with me being absolutely unable of logging into iMessage. It's always the same error message: "Incorrect password". My password is correct, I am using the password I have always used so I know it is correct. Besides that, I tried changing it and that did not matter either way.
Now, the next problem is the common "Unable to connect to iTunes store" which has been talked about a lot on here.
In an effort to try to fix that problem, I reset all network settings for the iPad and that's when the next problem began.
After I reset the network settings, I have not been able to connect to a secure network.
I have now tried
changing the encryption for the router password from WPS-SPK to WEP and back again
connecting to three different routers with three different passwords
set up multiple hotspots using my laptop with multiple passwords
resetting the network settings over and over again
and all those attempts have failed. I always get the same message as in the picture even though I know for a fact that the password is correct, my laptop accesses that network with flying colors using the same password as I tried on the iPad. And yes, I tried it again. And again and again and again.
Now, this is really annoying. Not being able to access WiFi on my iPad is f****** annoying! Please help!

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Is requesting songs on itunes store really helpful? is the itunes team serious about adding music that is already available in different itunes stores but not in the US?

Dear iTunes Support Team, I have recently started purchasing albums from the iTunes store and I am planning to buy even more in the near future. However, the U.S. iTunes store only offers a few German Artists/Albums. I'm happy that you are expanding the iTunes store with songs from all over the world and I'm happy that you are offering a few yet more and more German songs. I would highly appreciate it, if you could add Artists like Shindy, Bushido, Sido with their albums (NWA, NWA 2.0, FBGM, AMYF, Sonny Black) to your U.S. Store. I don't live in Germany anymore and therefore don't have German credit cards to switch over to the Getman iTunes store. You have some Bushido Albums available in the U.S. store available for purchase but I specifically am interestsed in his other albums. Also, the artists I mentioned above are only available in the German iTunes store and not available in the U.S iTunes store yet. Please kindly respond back to me. I would be more than happy to hear about a possible solution from your side. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for your help! Yes, they are available but in the German iTunes Store only. Some older songs are available even in the US iTunes Store, but not the new songs from those German artists mentioned above.
I cannot provide a German billing/paying info because I live in California. I would like to switch over to the German iTunes store to buy the albums available there, however, I do have a German iTunes Card but you still need to provide a valid card (visa,master card etc) to purchase songs from the German iTunes Store (I wish the German iTunes gift card itself would be enough, this would make everything easy for many people).
Please help me out and do I need to create a new Apple ID associated ONLY with the German iTunes Store?
Thanks,
shindymagjeder

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I can't do it that way. I erase these songs from the iTunes Library, but when I sycronize the iPhone, all these songs are copied again to the Library. Isn't there any way to stop that? Everything I buy on iTunes Store through my iPhone cannot be erased from the iPhone?
WHY can't you do it the way 100 million people do it?

I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.

What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and is it connected to wifi ?
From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support :
Here’s what you need to stream the new iTunes Extras:
Mac using OS X Mavericks v10.9.3 or later and iTunes 11.3 or later
PC using iTunes 11.3 or later
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation or later) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later (You need to connect to Wi-Fi. Extras won't appear if you're connected to a cellular network.)
An active Internet connection
You can use the steps below on your Apple TV, Mac, PC, or iOS device for any purchased, HD movie that features Extras:
On your Apple TV, select Movies, then select your movie to see the Extras menu. Extras aren't available from the Computer tile on Apple TV (Home Sharing).
On your Mac or PC, open iTunes and go to the Movies section in your iTunes library. Double-click your movie. If there's no Internet connection, the Extras menu will be skipped. The movie will immediately play if you already downloaded it.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the Videos app, then tap your movie. If you're connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi, the Extras menu will appear.

I've been using Ringtone Maker to add ringtones to my iPhone. The app is now telling me my music I bought from the iTunes store is not exportable. I downloaded a new app called Ringer and it says my song "has no audio tracks". What am I doing wrong?

never mind. i think it just makes you review the information -- it looks like you have to click through everything.

TS3297 Every time I open iTunes to listen to music, not access the iTunes Store, I get the password sign in box, over and over again. When I try to access the iTunes Store it does not except my password. This has happened since the last update.

Everytime I open iTunes to play music, NOT to access the iTunes Store, I get the password sign in box for the iTunes Store. If I click cansel the box pops up a second time.
When I try to sign in to the iTunes Store it does not except the password and pops up the sign in box afain,and again endlessly.
This started happening about two weeks ago.

if itunes will not run, you probably have mangled windows badly
one feature of windows 8 is the refresh that saves libraries,
because you are using windows 7, you will need to backup all files to another storage device

I have found a fix after doing additional research through this forum. Tech Note #328730 addresses this problem and it works for Photoshop Album 3.2 even though it was written for release 1.0.
Here is a link that will take you directly to the Tech Note:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=328730
When using this fix the Tech Note indicates:
"Imported image data and tags are lost when you re-create the My Catalog.psa file, so you need to reimport images and reapply any tags"
however it did retain the captions (at least it did for me).

Unless you've recently attempted to downgrade iTunes this is probably a sign of a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.
