TS1389 "computer is no longer authorized for apps installed on the ipod"

Is the error message that I receive when I try to sync my ipod. I receive this for all of my apps and am not able to update or sync my apps. I get this same message if I delete an app then reinstall it. I have tried the 4 suggested resolutions with no change. I'd be fine deleting my free apps and reinstalling, but this does not seem to work. More importantly, since Apple does not allow free reinstallation of already paid apps, like they do for music, I don't want to delete my paid apps. consequently, I do not sync my apps. Any ideas? thanks for any help.

Computer is no longer authorized for apps installed on your iPhone

Does anyone else get a message that your computer is no longer authorized for apps installed on your iPhone? When I click "authorize" I get a message that "This computer is already authorized". But when I click ok, I get the first message again . . .

No. You must purchase them under your Apple ID. Anything purchased under someone else's Apple ID will present this same issue. You cannot share items in this way.
Give the above see the following:
Sharing Stuff From Different iTunes Accounts (or Computers)
Here's how to do so using different computers:
Transfer what content you want to the separate iTunes library on each computer. To transfer content from your library to another library do the following. We'll assume this is between husband and wife separate accounts and different Apple IDs.
Launch iTunes under your wife's login;
Sign her out of iTunes, then you sign in;
Select iTunes -> Preferences -> Devices -> Disable auto-sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected;
Connect your phone, DO NOT SYNC;
Select Store -> Authorize this Computer (only have to do this once);
Select File -> Transfer Purchases (all of the purchased content on your phone will be transferred to your wife's library);
When complete eject your phone, sign out of iTunes, sign your wife back in.
You can now sync whatever content you want to your wife's phone. Just remember all updates to apps obtained using your account must be done while signed in using your account: sign wife out, you sign in, update apps, you sign out, sign wife in, sync her phone.
This way you can share content (permitted under the EUSLA) and still maintain your separate logins. Do the same on your computer if you want to share content from your wife's library.
Just load whatever content you want to share on each others phones, transfer the content, then delete it from the respective phone if you don't want to keep it there.

Error message - "This computer is no longer authorized for apps installed on iphone"

I started getting this message a couple of weeks ago. I get it everytime i start itunes and try to sync with my iphone. The computer is authorized. After I resubmit my password, itunes tells me that the computer is already authorized and to continue. The frustration is that if I am not connected to the internet, itunes will erase apps/podcasts from my iphone. :-( Any ideas?
Thanks.

I found the solution in another post. By deleting all my apps, I was able to sync the phone. I hope I don't have to delete all my apps every time I want to sync my phone, but at least now I am able to sync my phone.

The iPod could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPod.

Full message that pops up
"The iPod could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPod.
To authorize this computer for items purchased from iTunes Store, choose Store > Authorize This Computer."
I am unable to sync my music, applications, movies, etc. to my iPod touch. The only way I am able to bypass the message that pops out when I try to sync (the one in the title) is by clicking "Apply" instead of "Sync". To do this, I make changes to Apps, Music, or Movies (...) and the buttons "Revert" and "Apply" will replace the button "Sync".
My problem is most likely not due to using many accounts because I only have one and it is the only one that I use. I do not share accounts with my family members. Still, I have tried everything here, nothing has worked for me. Since I don't often listen to Podcasts, I have deleted them from my iPod. I have no idea why I am unable to sync and no one seems to have the same problem as me.
Thank you for your help in advance.
