Authorizing and Reauthorizing!

Every time I go to back up/sync my iPhone, several items don't sync because "I am not authorized to play them on this computer." It is the only computer I sync with, and I have to re-authorize it every time. My profile is one of four on the computer. Help!

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 12.4

Hey jedimacias,


Does this happen with the same songs each time? If so, delete them and download them again to see if that helps to resolve the alert to authorize:


Delete songs and other items in Music on Mac - Apple Support

Redownload music - Apple Support


If that doesn't help, deauthorize your Mac and authorize it again: Authorize a Mac to play iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support


Let us know how it goes.


Take care!
