Q: Prompt every time I open iTunes: "Your iTunes Store session has expired"

Hello,

I'm encountering this same glitch.

The pages Brenden links to seem to all be focused on how to make sure iTunes can connect to the iTunes store.

I'm not sure about egglands_best, but I don't want to be constantly logged into anything that has my payment information and the ability to make purchases if I hit the wrong button (or someone using my Mac does).

Whenever I open up iTunes, this notification is the first thing I see. I hit "cancel", and the notification goes away. I close my laptop and open it back up again, and then there's the notification again. I hit "cancel" and the notification goes away. I plug in my phone to charge it up, and then there's the notification again. I hit "cancel" and the notification goes away. I try to listen to some music, and then there's the notification again. I hit "cancel" and the notification goes away. I reset my Internet connection, and then there's the notification again.

Further, if you try to ignore the notification, the iTunes icon in the dock bounces up and down infinity times until you click on it and hit the "cancel" button again. It's wildly intrusive and impossible to ignore.

How do we stop iTunes trying to log into the iTunes store?

From the iTunes menu Account > Sign Out.

Well that only logs you out of the iTunes store but as soon as you log back in (in what I'm experiencing) the **** popup or prompt about "iTunes Store session expired" comes straight back.

I've tried several "fixes" including setting/synchronizing the time on the PC to repairing iTunes.

Nothing seems to get rid of this.

I'm even trying Apple Support on twitter now

Try Fix unexpected quits or launch issues in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support.

Thank you for that page.

removed library file and replaced with an old backup one and annoying popup gone.
