When I try to transfer the songs (that I've purchased on iTunes) on my iPod to my computer I get an error that my computer is not authorized, however I have already authorized it (it's the only computer authorized).  What am I doing wrong?

I get an eerro that my computer is not authorized, but I've already authorized it.  What am I doing wrong?

Try deauthorizing the computer, logging out of the iTunes store, rebooting your PC, logging back into the iTunes store, and reauthorizing your computer.
Any luck there?

  • When I try to transfer over songs from my iPad to my computer it says that i need to authorize my computer, but my computer is already authorzie. Why is it doing this?

    When I try to transfer over songs from my iPad to my computer it says that i need to authorize my computer, but my computer is already authorzie. It also says that some of my purchased items are not authorized for them on my computer. How do i authorize these items?

    Hi slt2014,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would try authorizing your computer again, even if it seems like it is authorized, by following these instructions:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
    If this does not resolve the issue, you can also try downloading your purchases directly on your computer by following this:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • I got a new pc.  I want to transfer my itunes library over to the nepc even tho some of the songs I didn't purchase from itunes.

    I got a new pc and I want to transfer my itunes library to my new pc.  Not all the songs are purchased from itunes. How do I get all the songs to transfer?

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

  • I need to uninstall/reinstall will I lose the songs I didn't purchase through ITunes?

    For some reason I am getting a message to uninstall and reinstall ITunes.  Not all the songs in my library were purchased at the ITunes store.  Will I lose these songs during the uninstall/reinsall process? 

    no your music files arnt stored in itunes so uninstalling and reinstalling wont delete them.
    If anything you might have to locate the files and reopen thim in itunes to put them back in your library. If thats the case...this should help you find your music files to put them back.
    Where are my iTunes files located?

  • Every time I want to log in to my Hotmail account I have to type my password over again, and every time I log in I try to save my password. I have tried hundreds of times, but it seems impossible. What am I doing wrong?

    When A person want to log in to a hotmail account to read or send an E-mail, one have to enter the e-mail adress and password. There is also a small square you can mark i you want Firefox to save your password so that you don't have to enter password every time you log in to the e-mail account (in this case hotmail)
    Every time I log in to hotmail I mark the square so that Frefox will save my password, but my password has never been saved. I'm so tired of always having to enter my password, over and over again.
    What do I do wrong? How can I solve tis problem?

  • The "sign in" button does not appear and my library, account, etc. don't launch automatically upon launch. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help you can provide. (After two hours of trying to find a way to contact Apple on this issue, I gave up.)

    Hi. I am really frustrated with Apple support. After two hours of trying to navigate their support site, I finally gave up. I really hope someone here will be kind enough to help me find a solution to my problem.
    My iTunes always launched with my account, my library, etc. present. Now it launches in a generic form with none of my information present. It also has no "sign in" area so I can get to my data. I'm not sure what happened, can anyone help?
    Thanks so much for any assistance you can offer.
    Joe

    I've not noticed this but haven't looked for it either - I suspect you are seeing 'normal' behaviour for AppleTV 2/3 - in other words it's ignoring the iTunes flags.
    With AppleTV 1 I used to set playback start/end times using Get Info in iTunes for certain self-indulgent music videos I'd bought which had several minutes of 'acting dialogue' you'd only endure once - this allowedme to shuffle music videos with only the song part of the video being played not all the waffle before the song started.  AppleTV 2 and 3 ignore this setting.
    Also, with AppleTV1 if you unticked the check box next to stuff you never wanted to stream AppleTV would behave as expected and not display it at all - useful for preventing non-family friendly material from streaming in the first place or  excluding seasonal material and do forth.  AppleTV 2/3 completely ignore the checkboxes on iTunes ans stream everything though you can of course enable parental controls.
    Hard to know if it's the AppleTV's ignoring the info or iTunes not sending it to them in the first place.
    Either way send feedback to Apple here:
    Apple - Apple TV - Feedback
    They won't answer but it may get put on a 'to do' list if enough users complain.
    I'm still waiting for AppleTV 2/3 to handle iTunes LP and iTunes Extras!

  • Whilst downloading new version 11.1.4.62 yesterday Itunes stopped working and I now get an error message MSVCR80.d11 was not found. I have uninstalled I tunes and reinstalled it and Ihave also taken the recommned patch to recover the MSVCR problem.

    I was using my Dell PC (Windows Vista) on the 24th January 2014 and I was lstening to music via my Itunes programme. a window appeared alerting me to the need to take the new 11.1.4.62 Itunes update.
    I should have stopped Itunes and then installed the updated programme but absentmindely I cliked on the upload icon.
    Everything carried on as normal unitl around 70% the way through the upgrade when Itunes stopped working.
    An error message appeared 'Itunes Helper exe - Unable to locate component. This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.d11 was not found.' i was advised to uninstall and reinstall Itunes as that may fix the problem.
    It didn't!
    I then researched this issue on Google and was advised that if the reinstall of Itunes didn't resolve the issue I should download and install Microsoft Visual C++2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Pack and run it. Did this and reinstalled Itunes again. Still doesn't work.
    Where next?

    Yes I have had the same problem today. Wish I had`t bothered to carry out update as everything was ok before.

  • HT1296 can i transfer music that wasn't purcahsed on itunes from my ipod touch to my new computer?
