Can't authorize

I have de-authorized all computers from iTunes Store but when I try to authorize it still tells me "You cannot authorize more than 5 computers". 
What do I do ?

Never mind.
De-auth'ed again and it worked.

  • Can I authorize 2 apple IDs on one computer?

    I'm new to the communities so please bear with me if I post this inappropriately.
    My husband and I both have iphones.  My two children have itouchs.  My husband has an ipad.  We also have numerous ipods.
    We have two computers in the house.  When my husband first bought an ipod, we had a PC.  All of his devices have always been synced on the PC using his apple id.  When I got my iphone, I synced on our MAC using my apple id.  When the kids got itouches, they synced on the MAC using their apple id.
    We discovered that anything the kids and I purchased on itunes on the MAC is available to all of us.
    We would now like to use home sharing.  To do this, both computers must be authorized to one apple id.  If the PC is deauthorized for my husband's apple id, I understand he will lose his purchases on the PC (or at least they won't be available until he authorizes it again).
    I understand that an apple id may be authorized on up to 5 computers.  But what about multiple apple id on one computer???
    My questions are basically this...
    Can we authorize 2 or more apple id on one computer? 
    Can I authorize my apple id on the PC and have my husband's apple id remain authorized on the PC?
    Can my husband's apple id be authorized on the MAC and my apple id remain authorized? 
    Can the kids apple id be authorized on each of the PC and the MAC?
    Can we have 4 different apple id authorized on a computer at once?
    Will authorizing my apple id on the PC de-authorize my husband's apple id?
    How's that for asking the same question in lots of different ways?  I have seen a lot about a computer using the same id multiple times but nothing about whether I can authorize many different ids on one computer at once.
    Thanks for the help.

    Each person in your home can have their own Apple ID provided it is tied the their own separate email address.
    iTunes permits up to five authorized computers connected to a single Apple ID: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    For this all to work well, however, each user in your household should have a separate user account on the computer they commonly use.

    You cannot. iTunes purchases remain on the iTunes account they were purchased with.

    So just upload them from iTunes.
    You have mulitple AppleIDs?
    Why?

  • Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

    Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

    Unfortunately you can't do the logical and convenient thing of authorizing a computer with multiple Adobe IDs that are active simultaneously.
    You can authorize accounts from different vendors; one account per vendor.
    If you have multiple operating system users set up on the computer,  you can register different OS users as different Adobe Account users.

  • HT3819 Can I authorize mulitple apple ids on the same device so that what is purchased on either account will be loaded in both devices without having to use the same ID?

    Can I authorize mulitple apple ids on the same device so that what is purchased on either account will be loaded in both devices without having to use the same ID?
    My wife has a laptop and an iphone 4s, I have a laptop and and iphone 4s, our two sons have our old iphone 3s, we have an old laptop for our sons to use.  Our old iphones for our sons are deactivated as phones - so they are used as i-touches for songs, pictures and aps.  I want to use icloud (which I'm new to) to hopefully have all four iphones and all three computers stay synced with at least music - if not aps and pictures.  My wife has an apple ID and I have one.  I'd like to authorize all three laptops for both apple IDs so that we will still have our own accounts, but everything either of us buys will be automatically loaded into all three laptops and all four iphones.  Can this be done?
    Thanks,

  • Can I authorize more than five computers on one iTunes account?

    Can I authorize more than five computers on one iTunes account?  I have several PC's being used as HTPC's and I'd like to use iTunes on all of them.  My three iPhones and three PC's have taken up all of my authorizations.  If I need to create a second iTunes account, can it be linked to my existing account?

    Todd, some suggested reading, none of which looks to me as requiring authorization as an iTunes device for Apple TV:

  • How can I authorize an iPod Classic with my own Apple ID?

    How can I authorize an iPod Classic with my own Apple ID? It belonged to someone else so presumably it has been authorized with another id. Your help and answers are much appreciated.

    To make sure the file system is closed properly iPod classics should be ejected from the iTunes interface, or if iTunes isn't running, using the "Safely remove hardware" tool. That message is a standard warning. If the device shows up in iTunes you can configure the selection of media content that you want to sync to it and press the sync button to start the process. iTunes may spend quite a long time "thinking" before any tracks are copied over.
    If you think there might be something wrong with the device itself see Corrupt iPod classic for some troubleshooting tips.

  • You can not authorize more than 5 computers

    I have music on my MacBook Pro, in iTunes, that I want to use, but it comes from an old account, that I don't use anymore, and some computers/iPods that are really not working. When I want to ear those musics/songs, I receive this message, when trying to enter the account, old, not the actual one: "you can not authorize more than 5 computers"
    What can I do?

    I quote:
    You can deauthorize all computers connected to your Apple ID if you've reached the maximum five authorizations:
    Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
    (end quote): once done you can then re-authorise computers as needed.

    You should only make purchases for all your devices using a single Apple ID.  There is no need, and indeed a good reason not to, set up a new Apple ID with each new device purchase.  While items purchased under different IDs can be played on a single device, you cannot merge Apple IDs and it makes it cumbersome.
    Apple IDs do not expire but may become dormant and require reactivation if they are not actively used.
    You should make note of your Apple ID and passwords and keep a record of it.  Like a bank account it contains access to items with value.  Update your Apple ID email address as they change.
    I see you were guided to this forum by a help page on recovering your password.  If that is not sufficient try the links below.  Apple will need to verify you are indeed to owner of the accounts to which you are trying to gain access.
