Lately while using itunes i have been getting a message that says "The itunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
I've tried a few things like changing itunes files from read-only and making sure all my itunes files have me as the owner and me in full control of the file.
I am now out of ideas, any thoughts?

Hello,

Far days ago but it is your first install of ITunes, have you made any changes in your Security or installed applications like Cleaner?
For first help please start ITunes with Admin-Rights.

Right-Click on the ITunes Icon in the Programs Folder and Start the Application as Administrator.

Hope this helps,

regards,
aido

Bit complicated. shut down itunes. go to iTunes folder. move the files beginning with iTunes and ending with .xml, .itl, .itdb to another folder [this is to be on the safe side]. You may see a tempxxx.tmp file [assuming your PCs settings allow you to see hidden files]. ignore for the time being. logout and login from windows. the tempxxx.tmp file should disappear. within the iTunes folder, go to Previous iTunes Libraries - copy the most recent iTunes Library yyyy-mm-dd.itl file into your iTunes folder. delete the date in the file name. start up itunes.
