Why do I have problem importing iTunes purchases to iMovie 6?

I am quite frustrated. Because of all the problems I was having with iMovie 4, I recently upgraded my system to OS Tiger 10.4, my iMovie to version 6 and all other iLife components to version 8 (my processor doesn't support iMovie 8).
Now I have a whole batch of new problems. Every time I try to import a song I purchased through iTunes into a movie, a dialgue box tells me my computer is not "authorized" to play that song and prompts me to authorize my computer. After going through the process of authorization I am told my computer is now authorized, but the same thing happens when I try to import music again. I've tried the authorization proccess many times now with no success, although iTunes tells me I have 2 computers authorized (where did it come up wioth a second computer?).
What is this "authorization" bull crap? I never had this problem with my old OS and iLife 4 components. Rather than getting easier to use, everything seems to be getting more difficult with upgrades.
At "wits" end,
Richard Witt

  • TS1424 Anyone have problems with iTune purchases and functions when overseas?

    I am in Israel, been here for three weeks and had no problems with apps updates, purchases,etc.
    suddenly it says that I cannot coplete transactions because PayPal is declining payments.
    However a quick check with PayPal shows that my account is in order and it should NOT be a problem.
    There is a suggestion that being in another country is related to the problem.
    Is this Possible ?

    I have this exact problem.  Also affects any app that is using map services (like foursquare).  I've had Apple replace the phone (didn't help), had Verizon replace the SIM card (didn't help), and so I am still trying to solve this while Apple and Verizon point at each other and say that the other one is the problem.
    Sorry no solution, but I hope one pops up here on this thread!

    Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

  • Why do I have to download iTunes in order to buy a gift?

    From the main iTunes Store page, when I click on either "Buy a Gift Certificate" or "Set up an Allowance," I get a page saying, "Cannot detect iTunes on your computer."
    Can someone please explain to me why I have to download iTunes in order to purchase a gift for someone else?? I do not want iTunes, do not need iTunes and do not own any iPod products. I merely want to purchase a gift certificate or (preferably) an allowance for my grandson.
    Sheesh!

    I limit on how to gift money has no correlation to the player being bad. Ipods remain the most user friendly devices available. I looked at most before purchasing one myself.
    Don't know what the issue is with getting a gift card at a store. I have always made iTunes purchases from a balance created by entering the cards. That way I keep my spending down to what I can afford instead of charging.

  • I can't upload new apps or updated apps, and it shows that I have problem with last purchase. I guess my credit card is over limit and the purchase is not completed because of uncollected. I have filled up some to my credit card. Will it deduct later?

    The problem is I have no computer to use the Itunes and can't go to last purchase. Also, I have ipad 2 using the same adminstrator and have the same problem.

    Same thing happened to me with my peruvian credit card in the peruvian app store, I want to buy an app, but it says that my credit card is "not supported in the Peruvian app store"

  • Why can I not use my itunes purchased songs in idvd/imovie?

    Upto about two months ago I had no problem adding itunes purchased songs in my idvd / imovie projects - now I cannot. A warning message comes up about needing to authorise the computer and although I am using the same mac as I did when purchasing the tracks I still go through the process of authorisation - the tracks are still not available.
    I have just purchased an xbox 360 and when connecting my ipod my purchased songs are once again unavailble to play even though I can play them using my ipod in the normal way.
    Any ideas would be very welcome, thanks!!

    You're allowed play the music on up to 5 devices. Each device must be authorised. Unless you can connect the xbox to the apple store to be authorised, you will not be able to play the music on it.

  • HT200109 Why do I have to re-download purchased tv shows?deleted

    Why do I have to re-download purchased tv shows? It takes an hour to download a show I've deleted from my IPad. I live in Germany so I can't watch American Tv shows very often. I download the purchased shows from ITunes, then after a while delete from my IPad. As a result, when I want to watch tv on myApple TV I have to wait at least an hour for the show to download. Sometimes I don't have time to wait until it downloads. How can I save the downloaded version so I don't have to keep waiting?

    You have iTunes set to delete the show(s) after some amount of time.  This probalby needs to be done as they take up a lot of space and can quickly fill up your iPad or computer.  When you bring up the show on Apple TV are you looking under "TV shows" or "Computer".  If you want to view your local content you need to look under "Computer".  Everything under "TV Shows" on AppleTV is streamed from iCloud.  Last but not least even if you do have to stream it the show should start in less than a minute after it is selected unless there is a serisus network connection issue.

    The results show that you have a proxy server set and this can often cause problems with iTunes.
    The proxy setting can be accessed in Internet options>>Connections>>LAN Settings.
    Try un-checking the proxy server check box.
    It might also be a good idea to run a malware check if you didn't know you had the proxy server set.

  • Does anyone have problems with iTunes movie rentals freezing in the middle of the movie?

    Does anyone have problems with iTunes movie rentals freezing in the middle of the movie, requiring a force quit, which causes your rental to disappear? This has happened multiple times to me recently. Last time Apple didn't refund my money after reporting the problem. I have been using iTunes for many years but am about to give up.

    Correction: I was refunded for the previous movie freeze.
