\I am trying to download some films and TV programmes from Itunes to a new laptop but I am being told that I need to authorise this computer. How can I do this?
Thanks/

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

I purchased a song from iTunes however it will not play. I get a message telling me I need to authorize my PC, when I go through the steps as directed I get a message saying this PC is already authorized however the song still will not play. Any help?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Try:

Also, are you sure you authorized the right account? Could some media be purchased with another account?

Hi
This error is because the Logic 8 installer will not work on OSX Lion or above. Once you've goy it installed Logic 8.0.2 works OK
You can get the installation done using Pacifist: see my post near the bottom of this discussion for detailed instructions:

Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. How can I delete it??

Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. Is there any way I can delete it so I can delete the version I wanted, or even better change to the SD version? The film is still queuing in the downloads list. I've tried edit and delete but that doesn't work. I also can't re-download the film from iTunes.
Any suggestions very welcome!

Before that, back up your device, explained here:

I'm trying to download a film from iTunes but an icon keeps coming up to say manage settings. What do I need to do so I can download the film?

In order for this to work you will need to connect to the computer that she syncs with normally, change her settings to manually manage her music, add back the music she wants then manually add the music from your computer.

Hey there ajj16452,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
From what I gather, your iTunes Store purchase didn't download completely and you’re looking for some troubleshooting suggestions. Take a look at the article linked below which provides a lot of great information that will resolve most iTunes Store download issues.

I am trying to copy some songs from my playlist to a CD but it changes the order of the songs during the conversion. I want the songs in alphabetical by name but iTunes arranges them alphabetically by artist.

TS2776 i now have window 8 however itunes keeps giving me a message that i need to authorize this computer how do i do this

new to windows 8 im getting a message that says i need to authorize this computer how do i do this using my ipod

You wouldn't be able to authorize your computer using your iPod, but Apple does have an article that can get iTunes to shut up about authroization (especially when it's already authorized, but iTunes gets confused for some reason).
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

Many of my recently uploaded photos are horizontal when they should be vertical, and vice versa. I've corrected all these on my laptop but in my iPad and i Phone photo streams they are still mixed. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Add the corrected ones to your PS - PS contains only what was added to it - changes made are not applied to the PS - you have to re add the updated photos
