Associated with 90 days

my phone keeps popping up with it saying this device is already associated with an apple device, everytime I download or buy from Itunes. I can't even get my music onto my phone. When the new ios7 came out it messed with my phone and I had to reset and restore everything.

I agree. It seems to go further than that. I have three user accounts on my iMac (myself, my wife and my daughter). I tried to download an album last night that I had pre-ordered via the iTunes App on my iPhone and it gives me this same message. After seeing your post, I asked my daughter (who has her own iTunes account and Apple ID) if she had played any songs in her library showing a "Cloud". She had. It seems she has not locked me out of iTunes Match on my iMac for 90 days!!
I had sucessfully downloaded the album to my iPhone and iPad, but the album refuses to sync across.
This can't be right? I can (kind of) understand the position with devices like iPhones and iPads which do not permit multiple user accounts, but this seems daft on an iMac - or am I mis-understanding the postion? Very frustrated!

I had 2 Apple IDs but now Apple implemented new conditions and i can't use one of them after 90 days using the prior one..! - "This Device Is Already Associated With an Apple ID"

I have two Apple IDs because i travel frequently between Mexico and the US, and the apple stores offer different products, so i like to download music, movies and TV series from both sites.
Apparently apple changed the conditions, becauise until a few days ago i could log our from one account and log in from my other one. Yesterday i was at Miami International Airport and wanted to download a few chapters from one of my TV series (Walking Dead) to watch on my way to Mexico City, but a pop up window came up saying "this device is already associated with an apple id". Curoiously, the ID to which i was connected to was precisely the one under which i had bought weeks ago the chapters i was wanting to download from the cloud. So it says i have to wait 90 days to change apple id.... weard! probably i accepted these terms when dowloading a new IOS version, so legally I'm dead in complaining, but why is it that if i am paying for all that i buy as a model citizen i am now blocked from jumping from one apple id to another one???? I can certainly buy another ipad and have one with one id and another one with the other, but is there any other way i can keep the two in just one device?? If i don't use i-could would anything change? This is really making me mad, and is the first time i have thought of moving our of mac products into samsung or others and buy my music and movies somewhere else where stupid restrictions like this one do not exist. Please help with a solution!

OK, but in my ipad, the apple id i have in itues is already the one iwant to have, but th one i used to sin in for i-coud is the other one. Any tip as to how to change the apple id for icloud and any idea how to know what apps i bought with the other apple id so as to delete them from my ipad to avoid being asked to enter another apple id every time they get updated? thanks!

Show days left until reset based on date and condition associated with date

My question is simlilarly based to the previous discussion https://discussions.apple.com/message/15134714#15134714
What I need to do is display the number of days until I have to reset a flight condition (FS Column) based on a set number of days (60 days). I have several colums of information but the two I would use is a Date Column and the FS Column(drop down menu with text for options). I would need to be able to look at certain FS options and use the date associated with it to subtract from 60.
If FS= "NG" use date associated with it to add 60 days, and then use that date to compare it with today's date to show how many days are left till the 60 day mark.
So if the last "NG" was Jan 1, 2011 and today was Feb 1, 2011 I would want one cell to show 30 days and another cell to show Mar 2, 2011.
I need to fly in a certain condition once every 60 days. I want to show how many days left I have until I need to reset that 60 day counter. Also, I would like to have another cell show the date associated with the day I would need to reset that counter on.
Unfortunately I am in a limited internet environment so I can not post a picture of my spreadsheet. Sorry for the over explination, trying to make it as clear as possible first go round.
Thanks in advance!

Aron,
I added a few columns to correlate the conditions and dates. There may be a better way than this brute force approach, but this will work.

My itunes comes up with this when i try to download purchased songs: this devise is already associated with an apple id. this devise can be used with another apple id in 82 days. i need help to see if i can fix this problem please.

i have an iphone 4s i signed out of my itunes on the devise and my friend signed herself into ituned but i signed her out an myself back in but my purchased songs and tones cannot download. it gives me a message of:this device is already associated with an apple id. this device can be used with another apple id in 82 days! is there anyway for me to fix this or override something. im freaking out!!

Sorry: once a device has been authorised for a particular iTunes account you can't change it to another until 90 days have passed. This is to prevent people cirumventing the restrictions of purchases to one account from consteantly swopping between accounts. You will have to wait for the 82 remaining days, and there is no workaround.

I buy all of our movies on our apple TV that is associated with my apple ID. I want to put a movie on my wife's new iPad but it gives me a 90 day warning that she won't be able to download anything. Do we really have to buy two copies of the same movie?

Do we really have to buy two copies of the same movie? There has to be a way for one family to share movies on all of our devices.

Ahh, thank you! What a pain in the neck. I figure I must have been signed into his account at some other point in time, maybe after... watching a movie..? [Though, that'd be the iTunes store, right? Not the App Store.] Anyway, some situation must've occured where I absentmindedly updated and iPhoto is now tied up with his account.
I'll go ahead and contact support to see if they can get me sorted. I suppose I can just ask him for his password, but.. oh, you know, it's a temporary solution and I guess I was just hoping to easily get iPhoto properly associated with myself again. Thank you!

I have not been able to download previous purchases since the new update. I keep getting a message that says this computer is associated with an APPLEID and that I can download previous purchases again in 82 days with a different ID?? I only have ONE ID

I keep getting a message that says my computer is associated with an APPLE ID?? That I can download previous purchases again in 82 days with a different ID? I don't understand why it wont allow me to download previous purchases?? I never had this problem before the 10.5 update. I have emailed their help panel numerious times and they never do anything that remedies the problem?? I only have one computer and one ID I just dont understand what the problem is. I use a 3G connection to download music and sometimes the songs are not completely downloaded too and when I cant redownload them its like a waste of money.. I am so discouraged!!! Has any of you had this problem or know what I can do to fix this problem?? Thanks!!!

Hi Bander Bunny!
I have a couple of articles that should be able to help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. You may want to try uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes first. This has to be done in a specific manner, and this article can help you do that:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Another option is that you may want to try syncing your iPod nano manually. Here's is an article that pertains to manually managing the content of your iPod nano:

It's also possible that this issue resides with your iPod nano. Here is a website that will help you troubleshoot the iPod nano:

I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 75 days." WHAT??
I've never had problems before - my husband and I have used the same library for years. My daughter also has her own Apple ID... are we going to have trouble with that, too? Actually we have 4 Apple IDs - somewhere around 8 Apple devices... this is a huge issue for us... HELP

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

HT4913 i am trying to get my computer and my wifes computer on my itunes match. i did the add a computer function and it says that this computer is already associated with an apple id...if you use itunes match with your apple id etc for 90 days...please

i did the add a computer function and it says that this computer is already associated with an apple id...if you use itunes match with your apple id etc for 90 days...please explain. is this going to screw my wifes account up?

If you both have seperate iTunes Store accounts then basically, yes, it is going "screw up" your wife's account.
iTunes Match is designed as a single-user service which is associated with one and only one iTunes Store account ID. If you have subscribed on your account and want to activate the service on another computer that is already signed in with an account the present account must be signed out and then iTunes signed into your account. This means the other computer will have complete access to your account and will only be able to make purchases on your account. iTM is not designed to be signed in and out at will. If she has apps purchased with her iTunes Store account they will not be able to be updated.

Can't play my library: "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID...you can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days." Got a fix?

Since my daughter burned a CD from my computer using our shared libraries I cannot play my library. This pops up: "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days." I can get as far as viewing my library but listening is denied by this pop-up. Can anyone help, please? I just noticed my (this) computer is not showing as registered to my account. Hmmm....a clue perhaps?

Do you have a question?

TS2972 This computer is already associated with an apple id? You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days-.etc.

I have a message in my iPhone:

How can I fix it?
In my iPhone, I can´t use my music in iTunes Match

Wait 90 days.

When i try to watch one of my movies in the cloud it says "this computer is already associated with an apple ID.You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID"

my mom used my computer to sign into her itunes account and then i logged back into mine and tried to watch one of my movies and it said "this computer is already associated with an apple ID.You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 68 days" What do i do?

You do what it says.

Is there a way to get around the pop up, "this device is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This device can be used with another Apple ID in 13 days."Someonehelp please

Hi there
I'm getting a similar problem with my Macbook Pro. itunes match was working fine until two days ago when i created another 'user id' for the laptop and then an itunes account for that user under their profile. Now i cant turn on itunes match on my itunes under my user account. Contacted Apple today who said to use the Express Lane and email the problem and they might be able to make an 'exception' on the account. Otherwise I'll have to wait 88 days to access a lot of my music on the macbook pro. itunes match is still working on the iphone 4S and ipad2.
Can anyone help? The only thought was too re-stream the laptop. Ive already tried deauthorising the other user but it made no difference.
Thanks
Jules

HT5622 Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days.

Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 90 days
(Note, mine says 28 days because I have been waiting for a fair bit for this to go away.)

You can't keep changing the ID you use with iTunes, you are limited to once every 90 days.

HT204074 Why can only ONE Apple ID be associated with a computer every 90 days?

We have 3 family members who all sync our iPhones/iPads/iPods to the same computer. My son can't access and download past purchases from his iTunes acct to our computer, because it says ONLY ONE Apple ID can be associated with the computer every 90 days, and I just downloaded a movie this week from my own account. Now, my son has to wait 90 days to access his own purchases. I feel I should have access to my purchases any time I want, as should my son and any other family members who use this computer. The number of devices authorized to access iTunes Store purchases is already set to five (which we do not exceed) so, why this additional restriction? I don't understand why Apple would restrict me from accessing our own purchases.

This bothers me so much. It is absolutely ridiculous. I use my Apple ID as well as a family member's Apple ID to download music.
Every once in a while I will purchase a song and it won't download correctly or will give me an error that my computer is not authorized, a solution I usually fix by deleting and redownloading the song from the cloud. This doesn't work, however, when it happens to both accounts within 90 days.
It is incredibly frustrating to me that I have paid for a song, it downloaded incorrectly, and I must wait 90 days to try downloading it again because of these assinine policies.

I loaned my iPad to a friend. Now it's associated with his ID and it says I can't download my saved shows for 61 days. Is there anyway to reset it to me or do I just have to wait

My iPad says it's associated with another acct and it can't be changed for 61 days. Can I do anything about this or am I outta luck

Once the iPad is associated with an Apple ID, you cannot associate that iPad with another Apple ID for 90 days.
You have to wait it out.
