ITunes For Mac Error. Please Help

Asked By android 200 points N/A Posted on - 07/23/2011

When iTunes for Mac is started, this error message appears.

iTunes For Mac ‘ERROR MESSAGE’
‘The required file was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed.’

I am very confused and can’t wait to download some music and video from iTunes soon. Could anyone help to fix this error?  

Thanks in advance.

For Mac you must require a shared folder. That shared folder is necessary, to authorize the store of iTunes. There are some symptoms like; You can't complete a purchase and can’t play those contents, which are already purchased. To fix the problem you must follow the given instructions.

 

• First log on t your main administrator account click to Go menu and enter to Go to folder then type in the bar */users and click to Go.
• If you find the shared folder is already existed then type the following command: "sudo chmod -R 777 /Users/Shared" and press return and exit. 
• But if the shared folder does not exist, then type this command: "sudo mkdir -p /Users/Shared" and press return and exit. This procedure might require admin password which is non-blank.
