I have an iPhone 5 -- trying to sync to iTunes on my iMac -- keep getting an error telling me that I need to authorize this computer. I go and "authorize" it and get a message saying it is already authorized.Â
Info:
iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.2, iMac OSx version 10.9.4
iTunes 12.0.1.26, Yosemite 10.10.1, New iPhone 6Plus and hours of sync attempt frustration!Â
iTunes 12 just won't sync to the 6 Plus, It keeps telling me that computer is not authorized. Â
1. I've gone through he de-auth and re-auth dozens of times, also deauth'd all devices and re-auth just this Macbook Pro.
2. Gone through steps in the article iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
3. My old 5S still syncs fine.
4. iTunes recognized the device plugged in but it is not seen in Manage Devices
5. While plugged in iTunes recognizes the App updates I do on the device and changes them from Will Install to Remove status after the update. Also was able to do an OS upset to 8.1.1 while plugged in so it knows how to communicate to the device but just can't sync.Â
I did a restore of a saved 5S which only brought back abut 20% of my apps. In looking at the Apps section when the device is plugged I see my other 100+ apps and screen configurations but hitting the sync results in the computer not authorized rejection dialog. Â
I keep getting an error message when I attempt to authorize my Macbook with my iPhone. Ive tried a few suggestions from some online forums but no luck.

Now that I've moved to iCloud I can't download from my Mac to an iPod.
Message said this computer is not authorized. I've followed the steps to authorize my computer, but when I go into "store" there is no option to "authorize my computer", went into "advance", still no "authorize my computer".

how do i authorize my computer?

I have googled it and looked on the apple help list and all websites say that there should be a "authorize this computer" link or an "advanced" link if the computer is a little older.

My old computer died and my most recent iPod stolen. I have a new computer and a new iPod but iTunes won't let me authorize the new computer to access my previous library. How to authorize a new computer when old computer died? The iTunes I have downloaded does not give me a deauthorize previous computers option nor does it give me an option to authorize the new computer. I would very much like to access my previous iTunes library.

I purchased a song from iTunes today and after it downloaded I was unable play it after being told my computer was not authorized to play the song. After going through the steps to "authorize the computer" I was told it is already authorized. Thinking I was then going to be able to play the song, I was once again being told that my computer was not authorized.

I tried everything on the link but I still can't get my MacBook Pro to play quite a few of my songs. I purchased all of the content that won't play from iTunes so I'm at a loss for what to do.

I cant play certain songs that i purchased. it prompts me to authorize the computer, which already is. I did the trouble steps and deleted the SC folder and that didn't work. I only have one computer authorized.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've recently migrated to a new MacbookPro running Lion, from a Macbook running Leopard. My iTunes account and computer, though authorized, will not sync to my ipod, saying it will delete 15 or more files purchased through itunes as the computer is not authorized. I de-authorized both computers and authorized the one I am currently using - to no avail, it still throws up the error. The account keeps reverting back to an old .mac address that I never used and have changed this to my new ID within the Mobileme website. Am I going to have to find the original music files and copy them in to my itunes again rather than trying to do it through this authorizing thing? Is there any thing I can do to get this error to go? I have recently got some new music that I put on itunes, but due to the error am unable to sync my ipod to get the tracks on there now!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently switched my iPhone account to a new computer, and I can't figure out how to make my computer recognize my apps on my phone. I have a new email that i use for my iTunes stuff and it works, but on my phone it doesn't recognize the new email and it shows the old email and asks for the password, but even my old password doesn't work. I'm so frustrated How can I make my phone change the old email to the new one? The only problem is for the App Store.

I've been syncing my devices for years, but after I updated to iTunes 10.6 then attempted to sync my iPhone 4, iTunes aborts and does not complete the sync. I tried my iPad as well with exactly the same results. So, I expect that something has begun corrupted in iTunes and I tried to revert to the previous version of iTunes with Time machine, but the Mac reported that I cannot remove iTunes.It could be a library that is corrupt or a cache of some sort, but I can't tell.Â
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a new-to-me MacBook (running Lion) and I just downloaded all my music into iTunes. I had been sync'd with an old PC laptop previously. If I choose to sync my iPhone (4S) with iTunes on the MacBook, will it delete my apps and data (as the warning in iTunes leads me to believe)? I do use iCloud backup on the iPhone, and I've got all kinds of apps installed (and arranged to my liking). What's the best way to have my music sync with the MacBook without having to reinstall my apps?Â

My Iphone recently got stolen and I am now using my friends old iPhone. I was wondering how I can sync my friends iPhone to my iTunes so that this iPhone I'm using now gets synced with all my contacts, photos, apps, music etc. I am hesitant to click on 'sync' and 'restore' because my friends old iPhone still has his stuff on it and I don't want to lose my stuff on my iTunes.

I recently discovered this issue that iTunes wouldn't sync lyrics over to my iPhone for some tracks.
I transferred all my music to this computer, and also authorized it. Whenever I hook up my iPhone to my computer, it appears in iTunes and the iPhone sync page opens, but when I push "sync" nothing happens. Why does my phone not sync to my iTunes now?

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor some reason some of my iTunes music won't sync to my iPhone 4. All my software is up to date and I have the playlists I want copied over as you would if you wanted to add them to the phone's library. Maybe my settings are wrong or something.
