My Apple ID works fine to open iTunes on my iPad and a IPhone but not on Mac. When I try to open iTunes the password box pops up over and over asking for password. It doesn’t say the password is incorrect,it just keeps popping up and won’t open iTunes.

Is this your problem, a somewhat "new" known issue that Apple is actively working on? 


Note that some have solved this problem by signing out of iCloud, restarting their device, signing back in.


And, I can't guarantee a solution, but, see:
