After deauthorizing other devices, leaving only the MacBook Pro to authorize for iTunes, I repeatedly get the message that the "required directory was not found or has a permissions error" whenever I try to authorize it. Suggestions? Using OS 10.10.4. Thanks!
MacBook Pro
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Repair Disk Permissions
This process can take a few minutes depending on the size of the hard drive.
When it's done restart your Mac, launch iTunes then try to authorize again.
Thanks, Carolyn. I actually repair disc permissions regularly with disc utility, but it hasn't helped this situation at all.
If this is a permissions problem in your Home folder, then Caroline's advice will not work. Disk Utility does not repair permissions in the Home folder. You will need to see OSX Tips Resetting Password and-or Home Folder Permissions and follow the part for resetting permissions in a Home folder.
I'll give that a try and report about how that goes later. Thanks, Kappy!
