Unable to authorize account

I'm unable to authorize my iTunes account on my computer. Trying to do so results in a message containing "The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable, please try again later" popping up.
Weird thing is that I have no problems if I authorize a different account. Authorizing my account on a different computer also works just fine. I've tried removing iTunes completely (with quicktime and all) and authorizing while my firewall is turned off. None of this helped and I still can't authorize my account on this computer.
I got this error when trying to download items as well but was able to fix this. It was related to Bonjour not starting up correctly.
OS is Windows 7 x64

Try resetting your Apple ID password.

See if that helps.

  • I have 5 devices authorized to my itunes account. 2 of them crashed but I am unable to authorize my new pc. From what I can see it looks like I may have to "deauthorize all" and then re authorize my current devices? Please help!

    I have 5 devices authorized to my itunes account. 2 of them crashed long ago.  Now that I have a new pc, I am unable to authorize it.  I think from what I've read that I should "deauthorize all" and then go back and authorize my current 3 devices.  Is this correct?  I have tons of music and need to make sure I won't lose anything.  I would sure appreciate the help!  Thanks!!!

    No that is not correct.
    Devices do not count toward the 5.  Authorization is only for computers, not iphone/ipod/ipad/Apple tv.
    You do not authorize or deauthorize devices at all.
    If you have reached the limit of 5 authorized COMPUTERS, then deauthorize all and the authorize the active COMPUTERS.

  • My computer(A toshiba) crashed and when I bought a new computer(a Mac), my previous apple ID does not word and I was only able to get songs that I bought in 2004. I am unable to authorize my account to get to songs that I purchased recently. Please help.

    If you have exceeded your allowance of 5 machines then Apple will not allow you to authorise additional Computers. If you still have access to your old toshiba fire it up de-authorise it and then try again with the new computer.
    While this won't help if you are having password problems, I did want to point out that you do not need to access old machines to de-authorize them. Once you are signed in at the iTunes store, access "my account" by clicking on your username in the top navigation bar. Then "manage devices".  You can remove any old machines that way.

  • Unable to authorize your transaction, but money deducted from account

    Hello, While placing an order for Thinkpad T450s, I received an error message - "Unable to authorize your transaction. Please select another payment method to complete your order.". However, the order amount ($1431) was debited from my account. I have not received a mail pertaining to failure/confirmation from Lenovo after the error message. Please advise the steps to be taken from this point. Best Regards,Ankit Gupta

    Ankit, Please PM your email and order number (if you have one) and I will work to understand the issue. 

  • Tried Hard but unable to authorize as it ask again and again for account details...any solution

    Tried Hard but unable to authorize as it ask again and again for account details...any solution

    not sure if you found a solution, but i am currently having a problem with playing "street fighting man" on beggars banquet. i'm continuously being asked to authorize my computer, and when i do, the song doesn't play and i'm still asked to authorize my computer.
    i have followed the steps described in the apple support page "itunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play itunes store purchases" and none of them worked.  i have a PC- windows 7 and the current itunes 10.6.
    on my itunes email receipt there is a link "report a problem" and i went through the series of forms and dialog boxes to report a problem. under account, purchase history, one can report a problem of a purchase.

  • I purchased a book and downloaded the book on my pc, but I am unable to authorize and transfer this to my other devices

    As mentioned above, I purchased a book and downloaded it on my pc, but I am unable to authorize and transfer this purchase to my other devices.  I downloaded bluefire reader per online instructions and added the pdf book file to this app on itunes.  When I attempt to authorize the purchase by entering my adobe id, it doesn't work, the authorization window clears the fields I just entered, I enter the information again and the same result.

    I tried reviewing my account information but it just came out on itunes home page without showing any thing....

  • New podcast app says unable to authorize, please contact customer service, is that apple or the podcast provider?

    podcast app says unable to authorize your account, please contact customer service, is that apple or podcast provider?

    In my case, it is a response from ITUNES.  I don't have any problems downloading from the site, or accessing the site from any of my devices.  But once I get episodes into ITUNES and try to synch, either by USB or WIFI, the Apple devices refuse to play them.  My IPOD Touch shows "no unplayed episodes", and my IPAD is the one that shows the warning "Unable to authorize".  From both devices, I can manually access the website and download the podcasts as MP3's and play them one at a time, but they never show up in my Podcast library on ITUNES.

  • I am trying to get hotmail on my iphone but every time it says "unable to verify account info"

  • I can no longer use my aol on mac mail. When I set up the aol account name and password I get a message that says "Unable to verify account name or password". This is on all my Apple devices. Seems like an AOL server issue but no help from them!

    I can no longer make my AOL e mail work with Mac Mail on all my devices. When I try to set up the account and put in the correct aol account and password I get the message "Unable to verify account name or password". I know the account name and password is correct as I can open the AOL e mail page on Safari. I have changed the password, and it still does not work. AOL tech support has been no help. AOL email worked for years but last week due to suspected spam activity AOL locked my AOL account. I got that straightened out but now i cannot set it up on any of my devices: Macbook Air, Ipad, I pad mini and iPhone 6 without that message. I took everything to Apple store and everything is set up correctly on my devices. AOL tech support is no help and keeps giving me different solutions and answers, none of which has worked. Any solutions out there? All my Apple Software is up to date on all my devices

  • HT4436 Every time I try to access my icloud account it tells me Verifying, then it says, Unable to Verify account.  What did I do wrong?

    I bought my iPad several months ago and I thought I set up my iCloud account correctly but I may not have, as I was fairly new to this venture.
    Every time I try to access it, it tells me, Verifying and after a little while it tells me Unable to Verify Account, so I guess I don't have something right.
    This is Problem (1)
    Problem (2) is,  I can't add Contacts to my Contacts APP.  Now I asked a Person at the ATT store where I purchased my iPad, she showed me what
    to do, I said that was easy enough, and when I got home I went to my tablet and My APP did not have a (+) Sign at the bottom of the page like hers
    did, and hers looked so easy.  Is my CONTACT APP not downloaded correctly, or is it an old version? Because it came on my Tablet already?  So How do I
    ADD my Contacts?
    Thanks for all the Help.
    Like I said, I am new to this stuff and any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated!
    Sincerely;
    Barbra Bryant
    P.S.
    My Apple ID is  ([email protected]), But my Email address is ([email protected]) could this be the problem?  If so, now what do I do?
    I also have a Google account.  It is ([email protected]) but all my email comes to the Yahoo account.  HELP!!!  Please!
    I hope all this makes sense.

  • I upgraded to IOS 7 and now I can't get my Hotmail account on my phone.  When I type in all the information, I get "Unable to Verify Account Information".  How do I get to use my Hotmail account using this software????

    I have had the same problem as yours on my Ipad after upgraded Procreate 2.01. My iOS is 7.04. I tried to find solution from internet for weeks. Fortunately, the problem was resolved a few minutes ago. It is very simple,
    1. Lunch outlook.com to confirm you can access hotmail mailbox. It means your account is Ok.
    2. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.Delete your hotmail account from your device.(my device is Ipad)
    3. Turn off your device, then turn on again.
    4. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and create your hotmail account by tap outlook.com. Be sure the incoming mail server is pop3.live.com.
    5. Waiting for validation.
    That's all. Hope my experience is helpful. Good luck!

  • Unable to create Accounting document for my Outgoing excise Invoice

    Dear All,
    I am implementing sales from Factory. I am unable to creat accounting document for my Outgoing excise invoice.  When I click the Utilization button, The excise invoice type is selected Deemed.
    1. How to control which Which Excise invoice type should be selected in J1IIN.
    2. For Deemed exports will system not genererate Accounting document for Excise Invoice?
    3. Where to view the excise invoice document types (Like Billing and order types)
    Thanks & Regards

    For deemed export sales,
    -Accounting documents will not get generated. (ref: Excise Acct Determination in CIN settings, you will not find Excise Tranraction type:ARE3 for which G/L account will not be assigned)
    -Excise Invoice type will be automatically triggered based on configuration : Excise Group / Series Group detetermination.
    - For Deemed Exports , only Quantity will get updated in RG1, but not the value. thats the reason, accounting document will not get generated.
    - This excise invoice is created, for - to update the RG1 registry / ARE3 creation.
    hope it clears
    regards,
