I have the same thing happening. Toggling the "Always check for downloads" fixes things until I restart the computer. It goes right back to asking me twice or three times for my store password. Sometimes starts asking me after a few minutes of iTunes being shut down or otherwise off the network.
That's not what I meant. When I open it during the normal course of using it, it asks me to log in now, when it never used it. "Sign in to use this computer for Automatic Downloads."
I dont see any disable toggle in the preferences. Is there a music player out there that has a properly random shuffle and doesn't make me click, twice, through this?
In Itunes, go to iTunes Store, and log out by clicking on your email address in the upper right corner.

I am having the exact same problem. Whenever I start iTunes or plug in my iPhone to charge it, I get that annoying message. (Running Lion on a MacBook). There is no option in iTunes to disable this.
I think a lot of people misunderstand the true nature of randomness.
It's like when people think a certain football team will win a coin toss because they have won it seven times in a row. Or that after heads coming up ten times in a row, there is a better chance it'll be tails on the next toss.
The probability of hearing a song is the same as the probability of hearing any other song.
Not exactly. If that were the case, you should hear the same song two or three times in a row once in a while. So they compensate for that, I'd guess.

Yes I have had the same thing and it is most annoying when before it never asked to log in when you just want to play music. Why does mac do these stupid things? It is something that perhaps with enough complaints to apple they may change this with new update. I have already complained to apple about other most annoying things. And it seems to be happening more frequent. They assume people want to automatically have all programmes open when starting computer. I went to preferences and didn't find a way to disable also I don't have any login items checked. Also I feel I have less control of my computer than I did in the past.
Now I know why people aren't using iTunes and plugging into the wall.
Thanks for the insight
