Deauthorize Audible Account

I've already looked at some posts about this issue, but it still doesn't solve my problem.
I have 2 MacbookPros in my household. For some reason I choose to install my Iphone 3G to computer B instead of A (primary computer). I used iTunes 7.7
*Computer A (primary)*
Now i'm having problem to get the authority on my main computer, it says:
iTunes Store/ Account.
+Computer Authorizations: One machine is authorized to play music purchased with this account.+
*Computer B (secondary)*
Now I choose to "Deauthorize Audible Account" (in the advanced menu). Which I think it means the same Apple ID-account I use to login to iTunes, right? Pop-up window comes up, I have to enter +"Audible user name" & "Password"+.
Still doesn't work. It claims it's wrong user name or password. Which is not.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

The Deauthorize Audible Account option is only possible to use if you've purchased and used audiobooks from Audible on that machine. It is not the same as the iTunes Store account.

ITunes wont deauthorize audible account, help anyone?

I have tried many times to deauthorize my audible account from my iTunes and each time it says that it is deauthorized, but when I go to the store tab it stills has the option to deauthorize audible account. I am trying to reauthorize it because my account are not syncing and I don't know how else to put my books from my audible account on iTunes.
Please help...thanks

keep getting error message
What does the message say? (Precise text, please.)

What is the difference between "deauthorize audible account" and "deauthorize this computer"/

Does anyone have a simple explanation for the difference between the "deauthorize audible account" and "deauthorize this computer" that are listed on iTunes drop down menus? The first is found under the "Advanced" drop down and the second is found under the "Store" drop down. Thanks.

Authorised means iTunes will be allowed to play purschased music bought from the apple ID you are logged into. You are allowed up to 5 machines that can play your purchases.
De-authorised means you cannot.

What does the "deauthorize audible account" option do ?

Sorry if this is the wrong place but I just stumbled over this option in the advanced menu.
What's it for and what's it do ?
Thanks.

hi again
his should help:
Audible is an online store that sells Audiobooks. The audiobooks purchased from Audibooks work the same way as the songs purchased from iTunes. You can only play the audiobooks on a limited number of computers. In iTunes, you can deauthorize your account to make your computer unable to play the audiobooks purchased from Audible (i.e. when you change computers).
If you don't have an Audible account, you can just ignore this function.

Audible files no longer sync - cannot deauthorize Audible account

After updating to the newest version of iTunes, my Audible purchases do not sync. They synced fine before.
I have tried to deauthorize my Audible account but iTunes gives me an error stating "Could not deauthorize this computer because either your user name or password are invalid." I reset my password on the Audible site and tried to deauthorize via iTunes again but still no luck.
So now I'm stuck and cannot listen to my audiobooks on my iPod. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Try turning off Vista UAC and deauthorizing. Then you can turn UAC back on.

I am trying to deauthorize my audible account. It says the user name and/or password are incorrect after I had just deauthorized the computer using the same user name and password. They should be different correct?

Deauthorize Audible Account... always appears as a menu selection, even if you deauthorized Audible or never even had an account.
Audible is a different account from iTunes and does not require the same username / password.

Audible Account

I checked off the box for the Audible application. I then noticed that in iTunes under the Advanced tab there is a "Deauthorize Audible Account". I attempted to deauthorize the account using the P/W I have but it did not like. I then attempted to "Delete" the application but that did not work. I send an e-mail to Audible requesting a new P/W but they did not respond. Does anyone know how I can kill this application?

I still have the "Deauthorized Audible Account" in bold letter though.
That's normal. You'll see that in iTunes even if you never had anything to do with Audible at all.
If you just downloaded the Audible app, you didn't authorize iTunes to an Audible account so there's nothing to have to deauthorize. Only if you attempted to play an audiobook purchased from Audible in iTunes and entered in your Audible account information would it have ever been authorized.

ITunes and Audible Accounts

I'm a bit confused with these two. I lost one authorization due to a hard drive crash and now I want to reformat my drive to reinstall everything fresh so I want to deauthorized my computer before erasing so can authorize again without loosing another authorization. Went to the Advance menu and clicked on deauthorize my computer and get a message of name and password wrong, meanwhile I'm logged in to view my account on iTunes, are they separate? why should I have two different names and passwords to deauthorize? Makes no sense. Also read that Audible accounts are created for audio books, I don't have nor ever bought audio books, what is this? I never had an Audible password set in the past, only an Apple iTunes account. Can someone explain how are the two linked? and why do I need to deauthorize my computer with a separate company?
Sure I'm missing something, don't know where .

Probably better raised with Audible / Amazon - iTunes simply applies their rules for enforcing DRM on usage of Audible (.aa) files. I don't believe, though, that authorization is applied to an iPod - you just need to be authorize your computer with a specific Audible account to be able to play audiobooks and to sync them. If you have details of your Audible accounts then I assume you could use Store > Deauthorize Audible Account... several times and each time you get this prompt:
enter the username and password for each account until they've all been cleared. Then reauthorize the Audible accounts corresponding to the content in your library.
I don't think that the details of your Audible accounts are available from within iTunes or in its accessible files. You can, however, open up an Audible (.aa) file in a suitable editor (I just used TextPad to do this) and you can see your Audible username embedded near the start of the file.

Difference between authorization and audible account and other things

When I check my account in iTunes it says I have 4 machines out of 5 authorized to play music purchased with this account, even though I only have one laptop. I do have three different types of iPods. Are these iPods considered 'machines' that are taking up the other three of the four authorizations?? I tried deauthorizing my laptop mutliple times as described in the 'One computer using multiple iTunes Store authorizations' article, but I can only deauthorize the laptop once before I get the prompt to reauthorize my computer. Is there a way to find out just exactly what are the four machines that are on my account??
I have noticed under 'Advanced' in the iTunes menu bar there is a 'deauthorize audible account.' How is this different than 'deauthorize computer' under Store in the menu bar??
Any help on these matters is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
Authenticate: Prove that you are the user you tend to be, for example by checking a password of a user (=> user is authenticated)
Authorize: Give certain permission to a user, for example "not authorized to ready file xy" ("permission denied" / "not authorized")

I am trying to deauthorized audible account but it is asking for a username and password but when i enter in itunes info it is nt working?? How do i find out what the username is then??

All i want to do is access my itunes on my laptop i was told i had to deauthorize the audible account and it is asking for a username and password, i tryed using my itunes login info but it didn't work, where can i find this info to get this gone.
Or is there another way to sync my itunes account with my laptop????
Please please help me!!!! I need my music

I'm confused. Who told you that you need to deauthorize an Audible account to be able to play your music? Did you ever set up an account with Audible.com? What is happening when you try to play your music? And what exactly do you mean by "sync your iTunes account with your laptop"?
Please provide more details as to your situation and what it is you're trying to accomplish. I'm sure once we understand what it going on, someone can provide suggestions.
Regards.

How do I find my "Audible Account"...

When trying to deauthorizing my computer, the iTunes inquires me to enter my “Audible Account”.
I tried with my Apple ID and psw, but it doesn’t work so I assume I misunderstand the meaning of “Audible Account”.
But then… Which account does it means? Is it possible to find out through the website?
I need to try to deauthorize my computer because I've purchased songs from iTunes Store recently,
and then synced those songs to my iPod mini.
Everything worked fine, at least for a while, but now my iPod has stopped to play those purchased songs.
I’ve read article about “iPod: Troubleshooting songs and audiobooks that won’t play” and found out this could be depending on the authorization.
So… does anybody know how I could solve this problem?
PlZ help XD

De-authorizing audible account

I have just bought a new Macbook and I'm trying to de-authorize the audible account for my iPod on my old computer on iTunes but I am told that my account id or username is incorrect. I know it is correct since iTunes still lets me authorize and purchase music on the same account.
Is there any other way to de-authorize an iPod from a computer besides going through the advanced tab in iTunes?

Choose Deauthorize Computer from the Store menu. Unless you've purchased an audiobook, you don't have an Audible account to deauthorize.

I have 3 audible accounts and can't copy them all to my ipod

I get this error message "Some of the Audible Files in the iTunes music library were not copied to the iPod "iPod" because an iPod may only contain content from two Audible accounts."
Don't ask why I have 3 accounts, it's a long story.
I have a 5th generation video ipod 80gb
all the files are on one computer in itunes, I do not share my library with any other computers
I saw an earlier question posted with no real answer but it was related to subscriptions to podcasts from Audible and that's not really my problem.
Does anyone know a way to fix this?
Or do I just have to listen to all the old books before I can listen to the new ones?
Any help appreciated..

Has anyone found a solution to this problem? Why on earth can I only have audible books from 2 acounts on my iPod? This is B.S. Is there a way for us to sort by account on the iPod so that I can delete audio books from one of my 2 audible accounts so that I can add books from my wifes account.
Thanks

HT4914 Will iTunes match match songs that have been downloaded using a different audible account?

Will iTunes match match songs that have been downloaded using a different audible account?

Hey there Chriskir,
It sounds like you would like to delete all the songs from your iPad but still be able to access them in iTunes Match. You can delete all the songs from the Music section of your Usage in Settings by swiping your music left:
Settings > General > Usage
