"Trust This Computer" Keeps Popping Up Every Time iPhone Is Connected to MBP

Hi,
I found this question of the forum in relation to Windows computer, but not in relation to a Mac (especially, I did not find a solution).
The issue: every time I connect my iPhone (6 Plus, current iOS 8.2.) to my MBP (Mid-2012 13'', current Mac OS X 10.10.2) I am getting the "Trust This Computer" message, despite that I have trusted the computer (like twice daily, about 500 times) already. According to 'Trust This Computer' alert on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support the iPhone should only ask me once per computer.
What I have done so far:
- updated iPhone from iOS 7 to iOS 8 (and within 7 and 8)
- updated Mac OS X from Mavericks to Yosemite (and within 7 and 8).
- replaced the cable twice (both Apple, from Apple Store, Australia)
- reinstalled Yosemite (for other reasons)
- repaired file permissions on Yosemite (got this from this forum)
- tried different USB ports
Nada, still asking me. In addition to the annoyance, it is the also apparently not syncing with iTunes.
Do I have options left to make the issue go away?
Thank you for your help!

This just started happening to me after I updated to 8.3.
I haven't had this problem for a very long time. Now, every time I plug into my Mac, 10.10.3, I get this message. I tap on 'trust' each time but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Trust this computer keeps popping up every time I try to sync

I have a iPhone 6 iOS 8.3, Macbook Pro and iTunes 12.1.2.27 and am having an issue with sync.
In iTunes I can see my iPhone, but every time I try to sync a popup saying - Sync failed due to this computer is no longer approved for purchased apps on this iPhone?
I then approve the computer and it states that I now have 3 out of 5 approved computers. I then try to sync again but then the popup comes again?!?!
Am I missing something or is this a bug?
Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance :-)

Hi, jmansa.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are consistently receiving a prompt regarding 'Trust this computer' and an authorization alert. Here are a couple troubleshooting steps that I would start with. If the issue persists, please let me know.

HT5868 "Trust this computer" keeps popping up

The popup "Trust this computer" pops up everytime I connect. Every time, I select "Trust". just like in the instructions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5868?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US . But it doesn't remember, it keeps popping up
The cable I'm using is an Apple cable, on a iphone 4S and IOS 7.0.2

You must have said "don't trust" once. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5868.
If you go to Preferences in iTunes, Advanced pane, and click Reset Warnings it will prompt you again to permanently trust.

IPhone with IOS "Trust this computer" keeps popping up

I have upgraded to ios 7 on my iphone, but when I now connect my phone to my car (ipod connectivity) it pops up with the "Trust this computer" box! but disappears quickly and then keeps popping up and disappearing. I don't even have time to click TRUST!!!!
After a couple of tries the car says there was an error and stops trying. What the **** is going on!
If no one knows, maybe you can tell me how to downgrade/restore to ios 7 as without this connectivity I can't listen to my music in the car?

I finally fixed it! Don't know really how but here goes what I did.
You all agreed that before IOS7, by simply plug usb cable between PC and iphone that was it?!
Updated to IOS7, liked it a little, noticed slowness, but was fairly acceptable. My problem started when I was not able to sync my outlook calendar, contacts, etc. to my phone then I freaked out, because kept having this "do you trust this computer again and again when I clicked Trust.... got me crazy.
Someone told me to use iCloud. Did, but I can check my Iphone contacts on a website! not what I was looking for. Then I downloaded ICloud for windows, so I can sync (another procedure) to my outlook. Ran it, restarted, found that my wlan card was disabled, fixed it, restarted (anxious), when back, checked some changes made in outlook, more folders and buttons, but it seemed to work.
I plugged the usb cable and iphone to my pc and Viola! they synchonized!! via usb cable!!
was it the cable? the icloud installation? the rebooting? don't really know, but it works now...
I was this close to return to IOS6 by doing all those creepy steps, but it is ok now...
Please let know if it work for you guys!!
cheers!

Click on it, choose Get Info from the File menu, and check the format.
If it's formatted as NTFS, reformat it as MS-DOS, exFAT, or Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as desired, or install software such as Paragon NTFS on the computer.
If it's formatted as FAT32 or exFAT, use the Disk Utility's Repair Disk command on it; this may also happen for a flash drive which is about to fail.
If it's formatted as Mac OS Extended, click Authenticate and provide your administrator password, or change the permissions on that specific folder in its Get Info window.

Hello there, there is a rare window that keeps popping up every time i start Logic. I'd like to send a screenshot... anyway, it's a "tempo" window with strange layout about midi effects and so,.... is it normal? How can i improve this? Thanks.

Hmm, that's some sort of MIDI Arpeggiator setup in your environment. Strange that you don't know it, this has to be custom-installed, it is not part of the standard setup.
You can do two things about it:
1.unlock your current screenset (shift-L), then close the (Bass Driver) window, then relock the screenset (shift-L). Next time you open up this project you won't see the Bass Driver, but it is still in the project.
2. You can remove the whole page: open the Environment (cmd-8), then go to the dropdown menu arrow top left of the Environment window and select the Bass Driver layer. If it is selected, dropdown again and choose Delete. Now Save your project under a different name (Save As...), so that you still keep the Bass Driver setup in the original project. If you don't need to keep it, you can simply Save.

"Trust this computer" keeps flashing!

I have an iPad Air. "Trust this computer" keeps flashing on the iPad when plugging it into my MAC. won't let me select it. All "fixes" I read for for iTunes on a PC. I have not seen any posts for fixing this on an iPad Air to Mac-I iTunes.
My Itunes on the mac is up to date My OS on the Ipad air is up to date.
I want/need to back up the ipad into itunes on the computer but can't get there... I'm fearful of losing everything (mostly pictures) on the iPad.
Help is appreciated.

I would download a fresh copy of iTunes from www.apple.com and install it over the copy that's on the Mac...that's how you fix itunes on the Mac...if you do that and it still does it it could be something going on with the iPad itself....I would first try a different cable...if that doesn't work I would try making a iCloud backup...I would then advised doing a restore...I wouldn't do a restore unless I made an iCloud backup because the restore will wipe the device to try and fix it

How do I get rid of the space game that keeps popping up every time I open Firefox?

There is a space game that pops up every time I open the internet in Fire Fox. It does not do it in with Google Chrome or Internet Explorer. I have to click "control", "alt" "a" to get it to stop playing every time or it will continually send up little space like ships and make shooting noises (so annoying). I just want it off of there, so I don't have to mess with it. Can you please help me remove it.

If this isn't on the built-in Firefox home page, it could be caused by an add-on. To rule out one of your extensions is involved, could you try Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

HT5622 I changed my email that was associated with my last Apple ID.the old email keeps popping up every time I want to purchase a new app. From the app. Store

I am having trouble getting free appt..from the App Store...I changed my email that is associated with my Apple ID..when I go into the app. Store my old email address keeps popping up..I need help

Apps are forever tied to the AppleID used to download them. Whenever you
try to update an app downloaded with the old ID, you will be asked for that old ID.
Delete the apps and redownload with your new ID - you will have to pay again
for any purchased apps. Or use the old ID. Or am I not understanding what you
are asking?
Did you log out of the AppStore after changing the email and log back in again?

Launching PhotoShop every-time iPhone is connected to Windows

Every-time I connect an iPhone to a Windows XP Professional machine Photoshop is launched (as well as iTunes). How can I stop Photoshop, or any image application, being launched when the iPhone is connected?
I've tried turning off automatically sync when iPhone is connected in iTunes, but all this does is stop iTunes from automatically launching - Photoshop continues to launch.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

When an iPhone contains photos captured by the iPhone, it is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer.
Or does PhotoShop also launch automatically when your iPhone doesn't contain any photos captured by the iPhone?
If not, one answer is importing these photos to your computer as you would with photos captured by any digital camera and then remove/delete the photos from the camera or in this case, the iPhone's camera storage. Any of these photos you want available on your iPhone, add these photos to other photos transferred from your computer to the iPhone via the iTunes sync process.
Apple computers include such a setting with the Image Capture application included with OS X which can be used to import photos from a digital camera without needing to install the camera's software or using Apple's iPhoto application or a 3rd party application such as PhotoShop. Apple's iPhoto application also includes the same setting as does iTunes.
If PhotoShop does not include such a setting, it should be included with Windows somewhere.

Why does this error keep coming back every time I wish to download a rented movie? Err = -50.

I keep getting an error after renting a movie. It's usually Err = -50. I tried deleting my downloads folder (as instructed) which has only worked a few times now. The error keeps coming back. Also, I have a movie stuck in my downloads. It won't go away.

Hi there
This often occurs if your computer does not meet the minimum system requirements for viewing HD content in iTunes. You can find more information, including system requirements, in the article below.

How can I get rid of the Introduction splash page that keeps popping up every time I open Firefox 4?

Wen I attempt to open Firefox 4, I keep getting a splash page before I can go elsewhere. It is particularly annoying when trying to access Links on my desktop, because the splash page prevents thelink from opening.

etresoft a long time contributer to Apple Support Communities wrote a very useful app he called etrecheck which helps in diagnosing many problems caused by third party installs etc.. Go to his website, read his information and from there download and run the program according to his instructions

When hovering over a webpage image, the URL associated with the image pops-up at the bottom of the browser. I do not want this information to pop-up every time I hover my cursor over a webpage image. How do I turn this off?

The pop-up appears at the very bottom left of the Firefox browser. Again, it displays the URL associated with clicking on the image for '''every image''' on the webpage.

The easiest way is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages or URL hover previews, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.
