Trouble downloading apps
Bought my iphone a few days ago. Registered my phone last night but plugging into iTunes. Right before I registered, I changed my password because I couldn't remember my Apple ID password. Now, when I try to download an app, it says "Authorization Failed. Please Connect to iTunes." Connecting doesn't help or do anything. I'm wondering if it's because i changed my password last night.
I’m frustrated and lonely

Inappropriate?Cool thing about the iPhone is that it retains all of it's configuration and data in iTunes, so you can just blow it away and it will bring it back down to earth without much pain. It's worth a shot anyway, since it's pretty non-destructive, assuming you were able to sync it to iTunes at least once.
To restore iPhone and reset the phone to default factory settings, follow these steps:
1. Turn off iPhone - Hold down the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the red slider. Ignore this step if your iPhone is already off.
2. Press and hold down the Home button for about 10 seconds until a yellow triangle with a text which says Please Connect to iTunes appears.
3. Plug the iPhone into Mac or Windows PC. Release the button if you haven’t.
4. Run and open iTunes if it’s not already opened yet. iTunes will prompt a message that says iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. Click OK.
5. You will be taken to the iPhone pane. Then, click on Restore.
6. Wait for the full restoration process to complete, and the iPhone will be back to the original settings state as when it left the manufacturing factory, typically a working phone again if you face any problem, unless it’s hardware related.
Also, if you're still feeling :-,( try reinstalling iTunes or play blockles on iminlikewithyou.com to burn off some steam.
