Account shows 4 authorized computers, but I only have 2

Account must show old computers on the list as I only have 2 computers that share the same account. How can I get the old computers off the account?

If you didn't deauthorize those 2 old PCs before you got rid of them, you can get the authorizations back once you reach the limit of 5 PCs.
When you have 5 PCs authorized, a button to Deauthorize All will show up in your account.
Don't worry about it until you hit 5, in other words.

  • I can't sync and iPad because it says I'm maxed on authorized computers but I only have one.

    Help. I'm in Apple ****. iTunes is telling me that I've activated 5 computers and I can't sync a new iPad. When I look at my account I only have ONE activated. I have to keep deauthorizing and authorizing the same computer over and over to be able to sync the iPad but that only happened once. When I start the sync it then says this over again and I basically have a .9lb paperweight.
    On both iTunes and my account view it shows I have just one computer activated. I delete the computer I'm on and it shows 0 but when I try to sync and then authorize the computer it again shows 5 and says that the apps on my iPad will be deleted if I don't authorize it. I don't want to delete them obviously but I need to get some images on the iPad. I'm a photographer and this is hugely important.
    I've spent probably 2 hours trying to clear this mess.

    Get a newer device. The original iPad can't be updated past 5.1.1.

  • On my older Nano my iTunes music library shows 28 GB but I only have a fraction selected for download (maybe 2 GB total).. what gives?

    Update OS X also. To learn how to do that read OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
    Rid your Mac of the adware that is installed. To do that with Safari, go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. Uninstall any Extensions that appear unless you know their purpose and are certain you need. To learn how adware may have come to be installed on your Mac, read How to install adware.

  • Two iPhones showing in iTunes but I only have one

    I had to get my original iPhone (bought 9/26) replaced because it kept mysteriously turning off. I now have two iPhones showing up in iTunes. Ones says "iPhone" and one says "Lisa's iPhone". ANy way to combine these and get rid of one of them?
    Thanks.
    LIsa

    Lisa,
    Where are these two iPhones showing up? Is it in the left-hand Source List of iTunes under the Devices heading? Or are they showing under Edit > Preferences > iPhone?
    If they are both showing under the Devices header in the Source List, what happens when you disconnect the iPhone? Do both disappear or only one?
    If they are showing in the Preferences window, then that is actually a record of the different backups iTunes has made for each iPhone. If the preferences and settings on your new iPhone are how you would like them, then you can remove the old backup.
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.

  • I have Ver.31 on 2 computers but I only have a Super Smart tab page on 1. How do I get it back on my other laptop?

    I had a Super Smart tab on both of my laptops. When I updated to Version 31 one of my laptops lost the Super Smart tab feature. It has a "tab" feature where I can pin links but it just doesn't look as nice as the Super Smart tab does.

    It in all probability had a problem with compatibility. You can re-install it using
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/super-start/
    or if you use V3.6 then

  • My computer was stolen so I deauthorized all computers that had iTunes on them on 10/28/2011.  I have a new computer and it was authorized for iTunes.  When I checked my account it says I have 2 authorized computers, but this one should be the only one.

How can I deauthorize whatever the other computer is?  I don't want whoever stole my old computer to be able to use my iTunes account.

    Get all that music back in itunes and sync again.

  • My email storage shows 13.3 GB used but I only have about 20 emails in my mailbox with no attachments.  Do I need to back up, delete everything and restore to get rid of the cache?

    My email storage show 13.3GB used but I only have about 20 emails in my inbox with no attachments.  I assume it's memory cache that's clogging my phone.  Do I need to backup and restore to get rid of all of it??

    There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
    Delete ALL your email accounts.
    Restart Playbook
    Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON.  Manual (push off) will burn battery.
    Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required. 
    Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi. 
    Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

  • I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it.  Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there.  The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple.  They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
    My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one.  From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate.  And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one.  Try a new one.  Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

    Hi LeeW,
    It would give you the option to Deactivate on both the machines. Please do so and then activate it back.

  • HT1689 Hey live in us but wanting to download an album on iTunes, but they only have in Ireland iTunes Store. What's a way to get this album short of moving to Ireland and setting up a bank account?

    Hey live in us but wanting to download an album on iTunes, but they only have in Ireland iTunes Store. What's a way to get this album short of moving to Ireland and setting up a bank account?

    You can try requesting that it be added to the US store, but ultimately it's the record company that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    Is it available on any other music purchase download sites that you have access to ?

  • Account shows 5 computers used , some of these computers are gone , however, iTunes doesn't give me an option to de authorize all. Any ideas ???

    Account shows 5 computers used , some of these computers are gone , however, iTunes doesn't give me an option to de authorize all. Any ideas ???

    Is the following not working for you?
    For computers:
      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 "Deauthorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

  • Apple id says my gmail address is already used by another id but I only have one.  I'm trying to change my apple id to my gmail.address

    I want to change my apple ID to my gmail address to use with FaceTime.  I went to appleid.apple.com and signed into my account.  I don't see anyway 'edit' to change my email address.
    When I tried to use it as my alternate, I get the message saying that email is not available because it is being used by another apple ID, but I only have the one.

    Simply update your old AppleID.

  • Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?

    Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?
    IPads and iPod Touches don't seem to have the same media copying restriction that my iPhone has. My main computer is at home. I have music at home and at work and sometimes I like to add it to my iPhone from work. I can do this no problem using my iPad or my iPod touch, but when it comes to my iPhone, I can only copy music to it from my main computer.
    Why would the iPhone have this restriction but not the other two devices?
    ps. Where's my "add currently playing song to playlist" button? I can't even find a third-party music app with this feature.

    Because...!
    I've no idea why either.
    Although it isn't normally possible to sync an iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers (or manually manage an iPhone from more than one) it can be achieved if all computers have copies of the self same library. See Re: how do i sync on a second laptop without the data on my iPhone 5 being erased?

    I really appreciate the fast sent solution about my failure to burn DVDs with Lion, but I am 89 years old and think I know something about computers, but don't have a clue about ZAPPing PRAM nor RESET SMC.  I also can't find any evidence of a preserved earlier OS (Snow Leopard).  I also don't know how to partition further my drive after all this time…(I used to have Parallels partitioned) but as I said I cannot find any where on the HD SN.  Is it possible that it doesn't exist anymore?  Not too technical, please, unless that is the only possible answer to this whole delemna..

    Blue colored text in these forums usually indicates a clickable link. The two I posted in https://discussions.apple.com/message/18789716#18789716 bring up Apple's articles on those subjects. For partitioning information, peruse Disk Utilities help files, especially

  • Everytime i try to download songs purchased from itune store to itune account. A warning comes up that I have exceeded the 5 account per computer limit. I only have one account.   What is this?

    Why do I get  a warning that I have exceeded the 5 account limit per computer, when I only have one account.  It will allow me to purchase songs from itune, but will not download them to my itune account.

    The very similar situation with mine:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3492726
    I can't find any solution. I don't even remember when I changed my apple ID! So does that means I cant recovered my purchased apps from my " old" account? I am totally innocent, for I did not intend to "Change" my account name
