Why can't disk utility repair iTunes in "Repair Disk Permission"?

Having issues with Disk Utility's not fixing iTunes "Disk Permissions". Have run "Disk Repair Permission" repeatedly to no avail. Same statements keep coming up. None of them ever go away.

Unless you receive a message that states you could not access a file, you don't need to repair permissions. Regardless of what repairing permissions reports, there aren't any problems unless it states it could not repair permissions. Even a fresh permissions database doesn't know what the current permissions should be. It uses what was current at the time the system is installed, and it rarely gets updated.
As updates change things, the permissions database becomes more and more out of date.
Now, if you are having a problem with iTunes hanging up, then that is not normally caused by permission problems.
Do you have any plug-ins or extenstions for iTunes?
Does it occur in another account?
Does it occur in Safe Mode? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455

    or

    you need iTunes version 10.7. If a Mac instead see:

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Try this first - 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.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • Why can't I transfer my itunes kibrary from old computer to my new one?

    I am trying to get my old library onto my new computer and the best way for me to do that is take them off of my I Phone 3gs and "transfer purchases" but when I try it the "authorize this computer " shows up and it is already authorized! So I still give my info, and it tells me this computer is already authorized and then does nothing. It keeps going on like that, it's a frustrating circle!

    Why can't I transfer my itunes kibrary from old computer to my new one?
    You can very easily.
    Simply copy the entire /Music/iTUnes folder from old computer to new computer.

  • HT201991 Why can't I see my iTunes Store reviews?  Are the artists having reviews moderated?  It's been a week...

    Why can't I see my iTunes Store reviews?  Are the artists having reviews moderated?  It's been a week after writing a review on a few albums I purchased.  I can see the reviews I've left when I view the settings in my iTunes account.  The problem I'm having is that my vanity requires me knowing if people find my reviews to be helpful or useful - I actually put effort into some of my reviews.  It would be nice to see feedback on the more critical reviews rather than seeing nothing but cult-followers of various artists leaving carpet-bomb 5-star reviews.  It kinda diminishes the quality and legitimacy of iTune's recommendations as well as how they sort popular artists.

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • Why can't Apple install an iTunes Visualizer option??

    Why can't Apple install an iTunes Visualizer option to the screen saver, instead of the iPhoto slideshow??  I don't always want pictures moving over the screen, and especially when I'm listening to the music channels. Having such a large format for the iTunes Visualizer would be . . . you know, cool.

    I totally agree and would love to see that option! I think the best way to tell Apple these things would be at http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html though.

  • Why can't I see the iTunes store on my iPhone 5c?

    Why can't I see the iTunes store on my iPhone 5c?

    Well then it is somewhere on one of your Home pages or in a Folder:
    Do a spotlight search to see if it accidently got moved into a Folder: Swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the Spotlight search and type in iTunes. If it is in a folder, the folder name will show up to the right.
    If it is not in a folder, but shows up on the Spotlight search, then you need to look at each Home screen to see if you can find where it got moved to.
    Finally, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout, which will reorganize all of your icons so that the original Apple core apps are on the first Home screen as they were originally. Of course, if you have a lot of app icons that you have set up on specific Home screens you would have to move them all back to where you wanted them. But that should put the iTunes icon back on the first Home screen.

    Why can't I open my ITunes on my Iphone?

    iTunes on iOS devices is nothing but a link to the store to purchase media.
    Music playback is done through music app, video is through the videos app.
