iPod What do you mean I'm not authorized?!

[Sal Collaziano]

I have lots of mp3s that I sync between my MBP and iPhone all the time. However, anything I purchase through iTunes does not sync over to my iPhone. I get a message after trying stating that I don't have authorization to do that.

"Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "name of a song", were not copied to the iPhone "iPhone" because you are not authorized to play them on this computer."

Does this have something to do with the fact that I just had a new logic board installed? If so, what do I do to fix the issue?

Thanks in advance...

Edit: Okay. I got one part fixed. It appears I had to resync with .mac and now that's fine. But it's saying I've got 2 out of 5 computer sync'd. In other words, .mac seems to think I have another computer sync'd with my account. Is THAT because of the old logic board? Or is the second computer my iPhone?

Think it has to do with the logic board.

I have the exact same problem. I sync my iPhone to my MBP all the time and have never had this problem until now. It's only selected songs I buy from iTunes that won't sync. How do I fix this problem? I'm not sure how logging onto .mac would fix it. I logged on but didn't make a difference.

Note: I don't have a new logic board. Nothing has changed on my MBP.

Yeah it's linked to the old logic board. I wouldn't worry about it; when you reach 5, just deauthorize all and then reauthorize the computers you actually have. Just don't forget to deauthorize next time you send your computer in.
