ITunes keeps asking me for a password to "Sign in to use this computer for automatic downloads"

I am finding the latest version of ITunes very annoying. No matter if I de-authorise and re authorise mymachine it still keeps asking me for a password to "Sign in to use this computer for automatic downloads". How can you fix this annoying bug??



It’s really annoying that if you don’t enter a password or click cancel it will keep popping up looking for a password over ALL other programs.


Can someone tell me how can I get ITunes to remember my password and stop having to re enter it every time I load up ITunes ?

This is a user to user support forum, and you've tagged on to the end of a four year old thread. Apple don't generally participate, although there is a team that will sometime posts links to relevant support articles.


Have you tried the suggestion from the preceding page to deauthorize and then reauthorize your computer? One assumes you've also checked under Edit > Preferences > Store and turned off any options there for Automatic Downloads.
