Authorization/Deauthorization Problems

I have an HP laptop which was continually crashing. I had to reinstall Windows multiple times and every time reloading my music on through itunes and authorizing it. Every time the comptuer crashed, I wasn't able to deauthorize it so relatively quickly I reached the maximum number of authorized computers.
Now I just bought a new computer and I installed itunes and move my music to it. I can not authorize any of the songs because the limit has been reached, but last time I called Apple they said to deauthorize the computer. I can not do that this time because it says one of two things, either:
"This computer was not authorized. To authorize this computer, play a song you have purchased using this account" (obviously I can't play a song because I can't authorize it)
or
"Could not remove this audible account because an error occured (-44119)"
Any suggestions?
Windows XP

Your Limit Is %. Once you reach 5 you can go into your iTUnes account and hit a "Deauthorize all" button. this button only appears when you reach the limit of 5 AND you can only use it once a year, so the first time you use it, it will not appear on your account again til the next year. So if you have not used the button yet, you can do that just remeber it will not come back til (If you do it now) May 2007.
You can email the music store about this here http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/authorization/

HT5312 I cannot authorize my new Macbook Pro, I can't deauthorize my old computer; I don't have the authorize/deauthorize button on my account. I created a new Apple ID hoping this would fix the problem, but didn't realize I now do not have access to my m

So, I bought a new Macbook Pro which i cannot authorize my itunes for. I don't even have the button indicated in the support section to authorize or deauthorize. I only have one device authorized to my account. I cant remember my security questions and cannot figure out how to change them; I think this might be the reason why i can't authorize my new device. The only way to access my itunes from my Mac is to have my iphone plugged in. Someone please help! I am a complete tard and would like to avoid a trip to the actual Apple store.

Call Apple Care for your country and request that they assist you in resetting the security questions.
To authorize/deauthorize a computer, go to the Store dropdown menu in the iTunes app.

No PHOTOS tab & NO AUTHORIZE/DEAUTHORIZE button...Where do I find it??...TY

My itunes does not have a photos tab and the authorize/deauthorize button...Where do I find it?...TY

correct, it doesn't. you would see a photos tab if you connect an iPod Touch or iPhone in the summary tab of those devices.
and the authorize/deauthorize button
it's not a button, it's a menu entry. click on the store menu in iTunes.

Authorization and deauthorization problems from Migration Assistant?

I purchased a new MacBook Pro and used Migration Assistant to transfer everything from my old powerbook G4 running 10.4.6. The transfer was super smooth and everything is in its place. The only problem I'm having is with authorization and deauthorization and both computers.
My new computer prompts me for my login and password every time I click on a song I purchased in iTunes. It then proceeds to tell me that this computer has been been authorized and that 2 of 5 computers are currently authorized. The problem is when the authorization process is finished the song never plays so I click on it again and I get the same prompt for authorizing the computer again. It is the quintissential infinte loop and it happens on any song that I click on.
Problem two is deauthorization on the old computer. It is a reverse of the problem above. I go to deauthorize the computer and get the same prompt. I put in my log and pass and then I'm told that the computer has been deauthorized. The problem is that when I go to click on a song I purchased it still plays when it should not because the computer has been deauthorized.
My only guess is that something happened in the process of using migration assisant. I've tried throwing out the iTunes prefs but that doesnt work. I'd greatly appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance.

Authorize-deauthorize circle

Another member of my household recently purchased a 15" MacBook Pro POST mid-2010, that is, a laptop whose mini displayport outputs audio as well as video. I would like to display the videos purchased in iTunes from his laptop to our HDTV. We have the right cable for mini displayport to HDMI, and it works just fine. HOWEVER, I cannot authorize his computer on my iTunes account.
When I try to authorize his computer, the error message is like Cannot find the required file or its permissions may be bad, either find the file and fix the permissions or deauthorize the computer.
When I try to deauthorize his computer, the SAME message displays. Hence, I cannot deauthorize his computer. There is no indication of what the file is that it needs, where it is, or what its permissions should be.
Thus, I seem to be in an endless circle. The deauthorization keeps telling me to deauthorize but will not let me do it.
My account has only 3 computers authorized.
How do I fix this problem?
Thanks.

Then it is time to learn to deauthorize computers as they are taken out of use.

Error when trying to authorize/deauthorize itunes

I have searched and searched for help. I found some useful information, but none answered my problems 100%. The problem is: earlier today all of my itunes songs worked just fine then I downloaded 3 albums and now all of a sudden I get the following error message when trying to play any of my downloaded songs: "this computer is not authorized to play "xxxxxx" would you like to authorize it?" I then type in my ID and Password and it gives me this error message: "There was an error storing your authorization information on this computer....the required directory was not found or has a permissions error." I store my songs on an external drive so I go and check to see if the albums/songs I downloaded were saved correctly, which they were. I then go to the 'store' and I try to deauthorize, but I am unable to and it gives me the same error message 'there was an error storing your information'...I am stumped. I have tried just about everything. what am I doing wrong? I am beyond angry.

Have you solved this problem yet? This is the EXACT problem I am having!!! This just started after I upgraded to 10.5.2. Please Help!!!

Help! MM17 Authorization(M_MATE_STA) problem.

Hi, experts!
I have a problem of Mass change (T-code:MM17) authorization.
I want to control our user that only can change data through MM17 and not allow to create new data to prevent accident.
So, I set an authorization obj. M_MATE_STA(Material Master: Maintenance Statuses) as ACTVT:02 (Change)
with STATM:all view(*) into user role,but it doesn`t work during Mass change test. : -(
When I checked SU53, It shows that user doesn`t have authorization of
M_MATE_STA, ACTVT:01 (Create) STATM : G (costing view). However, I tested changing Pur.grp through MM17 and it was not creation and Pur.grp field is located at purchaing view.
What`s wrong with M_MATE_STA authorization setting at MM17 ?
I cannot understand why M_MATE_STA ACTVT:01 (Create) is neccesaary when I want to CHANGE(Not create) data at MM17.
Our system is ECC 6.0 ehp4 Support package : 05 and there is no decent SAP Note to apply. Plz, help~!

Hi, jurgen.
I choosen MARC Table EKGRP(Pur.grp) Field and material master purchasing view was extended already.
I add MM02 to MM17 belogned role through PFCG and set further auth. obj from MM02 but still cannot change Pur.org
at MM17.
The weired thing is when I set M_MATE_STA ACTIV:01 (Create), then I can change pur.org
Is that SAP bug? Our system is ECC 6.0 Ehp4 SP level : 05 and could not find appropriate note yet.

Authorization/Deauthorization Issues!!

I just finished transferring my songs from my 2nd Gen. iPod Nano and tried to play one of the songs. It told me that I had to authorize my computer so when I went in to authorize it, it says that I reached my limit (5). When I tried to unauthorize my computer, it says it was never authorized in the first place. Any way I can get around this issue?? I have any clue who I authorized... It was years ago!!!!

Hello mellew09,
If you have reached the limit of 5 authorized computers, you can always use the Deauthorize All option. For more information, see this article.

Hi,
please have a look at the configuration of J2EE authentication and authorization on OC4J, following the OC4J security documentation available in the OracleAs documentation. You don't provide much details on what you did to make it work so its hard to give you any helping hand

ITunes Authorize Computer Problem

I recently upgraded to OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard and had a problem with my logic board. Apple replaced the logic board and now when I launch iTunes, I get a warning:
This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on the iPod "My iPod", Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased form the iTunes store?
When I attempt to authorize, I get the following error:
You cannot authorize more than 5 computers.
I don't have the songs on 5 machines and I'm wondering if it's something that happened because of the upgrade and the logic board fix.
Any thoughts?

You could have used more than one account to purchase the songs.
Try right clicking a the song that won't play in iTunes. Then Get Info and look for the account name that was used. Then make sure iTunes is authorized for that account also.

Authorization message problem with variant transaction

Hello everybody, I have created a transaction variant ZMM01 from transaction MM01. In the role I specified this new transación (ZMM01) in S-TCODE.
I can create the material but at the end, instead of the message "material zzz created" I received the message "you are not authorised to MM01".
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Maria

Thanks for your quick answer but if I run SU53 the result is the following:
Object class AAAB Cross-application Authorization Objects
Authorization Obj. S_TCODE Transaction Code Check at Transactio Start
Authorization Field TCD Codi de transacció MM01.
If I include this I allow the user to access transction MM01, but I don´t want to.

HT1420 Authorization/Deauthorization

I have reached the limit on how many computers I can authorize, but some of the computers are duplicates. If I deauthorize all of my computers will I lose my library, and can I then reauthorize said computers?

1. If a computer is using multiple authorizations, try deauthorizing it once for each authorization it uses, and then reauthorizing it one time.
2. You won't lose the library. Back it up anyway.
3. Yes.
