Why am I asked for authorization

While syncing my Mini today I got a notice that one song wouldn't be downloaded because the computer I was on was not authorized to play the song. I bought the album with that song on the very computer I was using! What's going on?
Thanks
Sheldon

try playing that song for a few seconds in itunes. do you get asked to authorise? if so, and if you do, does it transfer the next time you sync?

  • I've authorized my iPhone on a Mac but when I go to play videos it asks for authorization again, only to tell me that I have authorized too many computers. Help!

    So I used my work Mac to authorize my iPhone so I can play music, but now that I want to play a movie it asks for authorization. I've already authorized that account! I don't understand why it's asking for authorization again when I want to play a movie. Plus, I can't access the iTunes store from my work computer, so I'm stuck until I go home to deauthorize my other computers. Why is this happening?

    Authorization does not apply to iphones.  Authorization is for computers.

  • Asking for authorization

    I just purchased an album on itunes and when trying to play the songs it asks for authorization for each one. When I authorized one of the songs, it acknowledged it as a second computer. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to make itunes recognize that they are already authorized?

    I restarted itunes and now all is fine.

  • Why are you asking for my Visa card information when I have a balance on my iTunes gift card?

    Why are you asking for my Visa card information when I have a balance on my iTunes gift card?

    Either because you're trying to buy some sort of gift, or the iTunes Store servers are checking the validity of your account and won't charge the card, or there's a problem at Apple's end.

  • ITunes keeps asking for authorization and won't close

    I have been having trouble with iTunes ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion.  iTunes will open and repeatedly ask for authorization.  I've tried resetting the authorization, using terminal to do it, deleting folders, etc.  I would like to try and uninstall iTunes, but I cannot get iTunes to close. Not even force quit will cause it to stay closed long enough to delete it and reinstall it.  Then there's the problem where it appears to have lost my library completely...which may be part of this issue or a separate issue.  Considering it started at the same time, I'm guessing it's just another facet of the issue.  I'd love to just reinstall iTunes, but I can't get it to not open and/or close.  I am about ready to throw the MacBook in the garbage, because this is the sort of problems I expect with Windows, not Apple.  Any ideas would be appreciated to save my laptop and sanity.

    here is the fix..it worked for me

  • I want to download free apps for iphone 4s but when downloading it is asking for payment info. the application are free but why it is asking for purchase details...please help me...

    I want to download free apps for iphone 4s but when downloading it is asking for payment info. the application are free but why it is asking for purchase details...please help me...

    In iTunes, click "Store", sign in with your Apple I.D. After singing in, click "Store" again, select "View my Account", re-enter your password and your account info will be displayed.
    Click "Edit" in front of "payment information" and select "None"

  • OS X Mavericks is offered as a free download, why is apple asking for a credit card number?

    Can someone tell me why apple is asking for a credit card number to download the Free OS X Mavericks?

    Yes.  This is what it says.
    Resolution
    You might not be able to see or select the None payment option for one of these reasons. If you don’t want to use a credit card, you can use another form of payment, such as a gift card.
    If you have an unpaid balance or payment due
    You can't select None as your payment type until you pay your balance. To see which order you need to pay for,view your purchase history on a Mac or PC. When you sign in to the store, you might see a message that there was a billing issue with your last order. Click the Billing Info button to see the order.
    After you pay for the order, you can change your payment information to None.
    If you’re using the iTunes Store or App Store for the first time
    If you’re using the store for the first time with an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method. After you create the account, you can change your payment information to None.
    If you’re creating a new Apple ID, you might be able to create an account without entering your credit card details.
    If you changed your country or region
    When you change the country or region of an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method and update your billing options. If you want to remove your payment method after you change the country or region, you canchange your payment information to None.
    She hasn't changed countries nor regions, she's not using the either store for the first time, nor does she owe anything.  She doesn't have a gift card.  She's just a person without a credit card.  She did have one, and now she doesn't. 

  • Trying to load my Photoshop CS3 onto new Mac Book Air. Why does it ask for InDesign CS4 part way through?

    Loading my Photoshop CS3 onto new Mac Book Air. Why does it ask for InDesign CS4 part way through?  I have a CS5.5 disc. Will suffice?

    that doesn't make sense.  you will only be prompted for earlier adobe versions when installing a latter upgrade version.
    double check your versions.
    also, you might want to clean your computer before retrying to install, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Why is maverick asking for my billing information

    Why is mavrick asking for my billing information?  It does not tell me how much it is  going to charge me.  I thought Mavrick was free?

    It is free, but if there is missing info in your account information, it asks demands that you fix it.

  • Why is it asking for my billing info but the app is free how do I turn this off?

    Why is it asking for my billing info but the app is free how do I turn this off?

    possibly to verify age or perhaps the app has "add on" features that cost and they would need to know where to bill these to if you wanted them 
    I know you can store your billing details, even a credit card number, securely within your iTunes account to prevent you from getting this prompt for future apps

  • Why FPSEC1 is asking for recon key

    As we post security deposit as statstical document than why FPSEC1 is asking for recon key . 
    Appreciate your help in this
    Kind regards,
    Vinod Khelani

    Hi Vinod,
    The answer  to your question lies in the event  1113  where the sample FM FKK_SAMPLE_1113_USER is configured.
    This event gets triggerred when you create a FI-CA document.
    The FM works in such a way it selects the origin key for the particular  process from TFK001C (in this case Security Deposit with orgin key -13) and then looks whether the Username is assocaited with a reconcliation  group or not in TFK001U.
    If the conditons do not get satisfied, it raises an error message....
    So you need to maintain the reconciliation grp against your user ID in table TFK001U.
    Please refer to the SAP note 442560 for the same.
    Morever, you will find that after you have maintained  the above setting and have created a SD successfully, the reconcilation  key field in the header for the security deposit line item is blank, i.e. it is not captured in a recon key as it is statistical in nature.
    Thanks,
    Amlan

  • HT201303 Why am I asked for account details if I want to download a free app?

    Why am I asked for account details for a free app?

    For the App Store you need an Apple ID with a credit card tied to it.
    Apple will make an Authorisation Holds for a $1 to verify credit card information but will be not charge.
