How do you authorize your computer with the new itunes version?

Just got a MacBook Pro. I have songs that were previously purchased on my iphone that I could not download because it said my computer was not authorized. Looked at my authorizations and it said 3 computers were authorized but not this one. I deauthorized all of them and now I do not know how to authorize this computer. All of the support is outdated because itunes has a new version and there are no menus for store or advanced settings.

Open iTunes...
If you're using iTunes 11 click on the box icon in the top-left corner to see the " Show Menu Bar "
and from the Menu Bar select Store...
From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
(In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.
See Here for full details...

HT1848 How do you transfer your purchases with the new iTunes format?

I'm trying to update my iPod but it keeps saying I have to transfer my purchases. But I don't know how to with the new iTunes format...

On iTunes 11 you can do it via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, or I've changed the view on mine so that the old sidebar shows via View > Show Sidebar and I can then control-click the device (right-click if you are on windows) and select Transfer Purchases from the popup

How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?

Like the subject line says: How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?
With the previous version of iTunes, when I plugged in my iPod, I could select the iPod, select podcasts, and manually delete episodes. With the new iTunes, I can't select individual episodes when looking at my iPod through iTunes. Is my only option to Sync? If so, why is that my only option?
This question probably has a simple answer, and I'm just not seeing it.

Rock,
I think I figured out a way to do what you want to do - which is the same way that I use Itunes with my Ipod. (My Itunes libary was destroyed last year so I can no longer auto synch my Ipod as I would lose thousands of songs).
Funnily enough, I discovered this new way of manually moving podcasts while trying to figure out what cpragman was trying to say (I never could - he must be smarter than me, as I couldn't get his method to work).
1. Open up your Itunes in your regular Library view. Choose Pocasts from the left hand side (either in the sidebar if you have that enabled, or from the little "radio" icon if you don't.)
2. Mouse to the podcast you want to place on your Ipod.
3. Right-click it. A long menu will pop up.
4. Move to the "Add to Playlist" option. As you hover, all your playlists will be visible. But at the very top will be the name of your Ipod itself (whatever you named it originally). Choose THAT name, and voila! That podcast will now copy to your Ipod and be easily available when you disconnect.
A nice feature of this method is that you can shift-click several podcasts at once and do the same thing, and all your selected podcasts will copy over (if you're like me and update your Ipod only every few weeks).
Hope this helps - let me know if it works for you!

How do you print a playlist with the new itunes????

You can click on the little triangle that's next to the little box at the top left of the new iTunes. It will give you a drop down box which gives you several selections. One of the selections is "Show Menu Bar". Click on that and you get the bar back that was on the previous version. Then in "file" you can print a CD jewel case list just like before!

How do you authorize a computer on the newest iTunes for Mac? I cannot find the 'authorize this computer' link on the store homepage.

You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

HT1420 How do you authorise a computer on the new iTunes? (2013)

Hello,
I'm using iTunes on Windows 8, and I have recently updated iTunes, it's a very different layout from the previous one I had for ages, I can't remember when I updated, but it was in 2013.
I have moved from one computer to another (the old one broke) but I cannot synchronise my iTunes from iCloud onto this computer, I was wondering how you authorise iTunes onto this new computer. I deauthorised the last computer I had and I now only have my iPad synchronised to iTunes. I have tried to look up how to authorise iTunes onto a new computer, but everyone says 'click on store and then click on authorise', I can't seem to find this option!
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

HT1386 How do you sync specific songs with the NEW iTunes?

I have a large music library and my iPhone is only 16GB. This limits the amount of songs i can put on it. In the previous iTunes it was possible to remove a song by simply un-ticking it. I've tried that in the current version of iTunes but when i sync, the songs still end up on my iPhone.
What can I do to stop certain songs from syncing (whitout having to create a million playlists)?

Make sure that the "Sync Music" option from the Music tab in your iTunes is checked but not the "Entire music library" underneath the "Entire music library" option you can select which parts of you iTunes library to sync with your iPhone.

How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

The following quotation is from http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/continuity/
The link shows a picture of the Notification. Below it says there is "nothing to set up" but I believe that you need to have FaceTime activated (signed in) on both devices as there is a setting on iPhone/iPad in Settings > FaceTime where you turn "iPhone Cellular Calls" on/off.
Sometimes when your iPhone rings, it’s not where you are. Maybe it’s charging in another room. Or it’s buried in your backpack. But your Mac or iPad is sitting right there. Now you can make and receive phone calls on those devices as long as your iPhone running iOS 8 is on the same Wi-Fi network. Incoming calls show the caller’s name, number, and profile picture. Just click or swipe the notification to answer, ignore, or respond with a quick message. And making a phone call from your iPad or Mac is just as easy. Simply tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. It all works with your existing iPhone number, so there’s nothing to set up.

How do you put songs on your ipod with the new itunes?

How do you put songs on your ipod with the new itunes?

Do you mean remove them from the iPod or transfer them back to your computer? You can't transfer photo's back to the computer with iTunes. To retrieve photos from an iPod try:
iPodPhotoCopy Windows only
CopyPodPhoto Windows only
iPod Photo Liberator Mac & Windows
To remove individual photos from an iPod you delete or remove the photo from the folder that you linked to when you set the preference "synch photos from" and update the iPod. For example, if the iPod is getting the pictures from the folder "My Pictures," delete or remove them from My Pictures.
