TS1277 I have windows 8; at the itunes store there is no "authorize this computer" option available. how do I authorize my computer?
I have a new windows 8 pc. I am trying to authorize my computer at the itunes store. I looked up the tutorial. It says to go to the itunes store and select the "authorize this computer". there is no "authorize this computer" to select. What do I do?
There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

The I tune Store Wont Open ????
Here is the fix for that problem, if you're still having it. I had the same thing happen. Sony Singh posted this in another conversation and it worked. Just be sure to reboot after copying and pasting the file below.
Copy QTMovieWin.dll from: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes -
I have a problem with the iTunes Store, I have an ipod and an iphone 2. I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 2007, entering into iTunes Store on the main screen I get only AppStore, Podcast and iTunes U. In my screen I get only ipad2 Podcast, iTunes U Downloads. My problem is I can not access any application to download music, videos, books, etc..
ITunes will be installed wrong or what should I do to activate these options?Go to the front page of the Store, and click Change Country. Make sure it is set to the country where you actually are.
Then you will be able to see everything that is for sale in your country, which, depending where you live, might or might not include music. -
I have remaining credit at the iTunes Store, but will not let me use without entering 'your Gift Card or Download Code' which, of course, was thrown away months ago, when I first put the code in! Originally it was put into my computer, now I'm trying to redeem on my iPhone. Anybody have any ideas....I mean it IS my money! Thanks Ruthie
What you are saying does not make sense. You redeem a card once, that's it. It doesn't matter what device you are using, as long as it's using the same account, you will get the reminder of your store credits.
Could you give more details now? -
1) I have multiple accounts at the iTunes store and none are now associated with my purchases...I think because passwords have been associated with various id’s and I can’t log in and access those purchases. I want to get back to being able to use one id and password and be able to access those purchases.
2) When I upgraded my iPhone 3gs, to the latest version 5.0.1 (9A405), is when I noticed that i couldn’t update my applications. There are two names/accounts on the phone and prior to the update there was just the one. I have tried entering every conceivable password that I have ever used and get the incorrect password error every time. The apps on the iPhone are apparently associated with several/different accounts. I just want to get everything back to the way it was. One id and one password with purchases associated with just one account that can be updated on my computer as well as my iPhone.Hello sadiepix,
The following article details several things that can be done to quell iTunes' constant need for authorization.

Why do I have to login to the itunes store on my computer in order to download apps on my iPad2 now?
I am not sure what I changed, but now when my Macbook Pro is turned on my iPad 2 will not let me download apps. It prompts me to login to itunes on my computer in order to download the apps. Any ideas?
You should not have to log into the iTunes store on your computer. I don't have to do that and I just tried on both my computer and my iPad to be sure. Try any or all of these things to see if it helps at all. The only exception I can think of would be if you were trying to download apps larger than 20MG via 3G on the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit iTunes on the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit iTunes by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the iTunes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -
i have downloaded Facebook from the iTunes stores but i cannot find the icon on my screen or anyway in the drive. why?
The apps in the iTunes Store are for a mobile device. Mac apps are in the Mac App Store.

I'm getting messages on Apple TV that netflix and the itunes store are currently unavailable. This can't be a coincidence. Also, the iTunes store is working fine on my Mac, the message is only on the apple TV. Does anyone come across this frequently?
1. An explanation for what? There is indeed a support number (which you can find on this page in "Contact Us" and you are limited to one support call in the first 90 days and if you have the AppleCare you have more than that available, so I'm not sure what you are whinning about (and it is whinning, trust me).
2. http://www.kelleytown.com/ikelleytown.htm#firewire
However, since I wrote that I've also found this link pretty well explaining why firewire is the only way to go as well (it's about video but the same principles apply to the iPod:
http://www.pcworld.idg.com.au/index.php/id;1847886895
3. Your computer is constantly changing whether you know it or not. Do you not apply any MS upgrades (or have them automatically applied for you?) Do you not have any antivirus on your machine (which applies its own upgrades)? Do you not, ever, ever, ever, open any email message, or download that cute little movie your friend sent you, or plug in any other device (like a digital camera or flashcard reader) or any of the other hundreds of things that change the computer environment.
It would be tempting to conclude a priori that the update you applied is now the problem, but if so, how do you explain the millions of others who apply the update without issues? The difference is in the software and settings on the witches brew that is a PC. So in a sense you are right in that the old firmware worked with the mess that is your computer and now the new one doesn't -- but it ain't up to Apple to fix your computer, and impossible for them to control the environment (oh, I guess unless you buy a Mac -- "coincidentally" Mac's use firewire for the iPod :>)
I dunno -- when 90% of all issues (100% of all connection issues) can be solved with the Adaptec 4300 I tend to have a lot less patience with folks. If you want to use the mess that is USB then you'll just have to deal with the fact that MS screwed it up big time and become more knowledgable on how to handle the problems. -
The iTunes Store Is Not Supported In This Country
I am trying to access the iTunes store from my iPhone and I get the above message. I'm in Australia so I know full well that iTunes is supported here!
I am able to use and access the App Store perfectally fine and had no issues downloading apps from it.
I have recently had my iPhone and SIM card replaced, and this is the first time I have tried to access the iTunes Store from my iPhone since both replacements. But again, have accessed and used the App store fine.
iTunes on my desktop is set to Australia and working fine.
Are there settings on the iPhone to select your country or something that for whatever reason has changed to another country or can anyone help me?
Thankies!On your phone, make sure that you are signed in to the same itunes account that you use on your computer: Settings>Store>View Account. Once you've done that, sync your phone. Itunes account info is transferred during the sync process. See if this fixes the issue.

I am missing the iTunes Store Tabs for Music, Movies, and TV Shows. How do I add them?
I am missing the iTunes Store Tabs for Music, Movies, and TV shows. How do I add them?
It is very strange especially not having the Music Tab. I desperately want to download music...
Please help, anyone please, thank you.To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
To go back to your question; you cannot merge accounts, but perhaps using one account for iCloud and the other for iTunes will resolve the majority of the reasons you needed to merge to begin with. -
I purchased music on my iPad (and it works fine). It populated my purchased list on my home computer but will not download (purchase is no longer a given option) ?? when I access it in the iTunes store I can click on play but nothing happens…how do I get it to download on my computer ?
If you connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases then it should copy over to your iTunes library. Depending upon what country that you are in you might also be able to redownload it on your computer's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.

I have downloaded facetime from the App store and I keep receiving this message - An internal FaceTime error occurred. There was a problem with FaceTime. You need to quit and open FaceTime again. Please help!
This error message could result from an incorrect setting for date and time, or an operating system which does not have the latest updates installed. It's a good idea to have your location setting on automatic. Turn on the wi fi in your mac for a minute or so, to allow it to automatically search for your present location. Do this even though you have the correct time Date settings displayed.

Why Do I Have Two Feeds at the Itunes Store?
I began podcasting through wordpress. To do so I made a category called "Podcast" which then becomes the feed that goes to the Itunes store.
Because of the limitations of Wordpress I went to feedburner and burned the same feed.
And NOW, on the Itunes store I have two podcast feeds. They are exactly the same in content, but one is from my Wordpress feed and one is my wordpress feed burned with feedburner. Does anyone know how I can do away with the wordpress feed without damaging the feed?
I would so deeply appreciate help on this.
Thank you!It's a bit odd, seeing that the Feedburner feed was apparently accepted before. Feedvalidator says the feed is valid, though it does throw up a few point you might want to look at - see here. It's also possible to subscribe in iTunes using the 'Advanced' menu, so there isn't anything seriously wrong with the feed.
I can only suggest that you try resubmitting it. You may find you need to make some small change to the title.
