    De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
    For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

  • HT1420 How do I authorise my computer for iTunes when there is no "authorize this computer" or Advanced menu ?  When Apple say Store menu do they mean from the top of the store when logged in ?

    Where is the iTunes Store menu that has Authorize this Computer located and/or Advanced menu ? How do I authorise my computer for iTunes if I cannot find Authorize this Computer or Advanced menu ?  Thank you.

    It's done via the Store drop-down menu at the top of iTunes - if you are using iTunes 11 on a PC then pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear e.g. (screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC) :

  • Unable to authorize This Computer for iTunes

    About 8 months ago I installed iTunes on one of my desktops (Windows) and setup the store access and actually purchased the OS update for my iTouch. Yesterday I purchased an iPad for my wife and started to set it up on her laptop. I've installed iTunes 9.1 and attempted to "Authorize This Computer" for iTunes purchases, I also attempted to do this on my laptop (both are running Win7 x64). Per the iTunes screen an email was sent to my account but I never receive it. Prior to the attempt to authorize the two computers from my wife's laptop I issued a request to reset my password. This email I received and reset the password. I then received a confirmation email that the password was reset.
    Why cannot I receive the emails to authorize my two laptops?

    In the iTunes window click on Store > Authorize This Computer
    In the "Authorize This Computer" I enter my email and password, click on the "Authorize" button.
    A new window pops up title "You have not verified your account", Click OK to review the instructions on how to verify your account.
    I click on the OK button and then the iTunes main window informs me that an email as been sent to my account and it displays my email address.
    I never receive the email and I have zero idea what to do at this point.
    The link you provided is about "Authorizing a computer allows you to manage which computers can play music, videos, audiobooks, or other content purchased from the iTunes Store" - This sounds like what I want to do but I cannot authorize either my computer or my wife's computer. At this point nether of us have or can purchase anything using my iTunes account.
    At this point I'm totally confused and upset and very close to returning the **** iPad. I thought this was going to be a simple process but it is turning into a can of worms.
    What I'm attempting to do is have one iTunes store account where either myself or my wife can purchase.

  • Which store do you go to, to authorize your computer for itunes!?!?!?!? o.O

    Hi... look i am having SO much trouble! I can't figure which store you go to to authorize your computer for itunes purchases! Help please!

    As you appear to be in Canada, you would want to log on to the Canadian iTunes Store. Do you already have an iTunes Store account? If you have purchases, I'm guessing you do.
    I'm not entirely sure what your actual problem is. Is there a particular error message you're getting? What, exactly, is happening. The more details you give, the better the answers you'll get.
    Best of luck.

    I don't want to reset my apple ID password. I know it's right. It doesn't work on Itunes to restore my phone. All the passwords I know are not working. I want to know why.
