How can I deauthorize iTunes on my PC that doesn't have iTunes installed (crashed with latest update)?

I'm retiring my old PC and want to deauthorize my purchased iTunes library (over 1,000 songs) but have a problem.  The last time I tried to update iTunes on the computer, the installation crashed and iTunes was removed.  My music is still there.  I just can't figure out how to deauthorize the computer without using iTunes.  I've tried reinstalling iTunes several times and always get "Error 7" with further instructions to try again.

You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. Otherwise you can "deauthorize all" from your iTunes account.
Open iTunes on a computer
From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only use this feature once per year.
After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

  • How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.

    How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.
    I tried to use the attached command through TERMINAL :
    sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';" && killall Dock
    sqlite3: Error: too many options: "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';"
    Use -help for a list of options.
    But i didn't work as I got the above error message.

    I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job).  What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
    http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
    Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software.  (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.)  The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance.  I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers.  When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install.  We did!  But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
    So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

  • How can I email a pages 08 document that doesn't have to be opened  as an attachment by the recipient??   PS- I am using at&t mail.

    How can I email a document created on Pages '08 that doesn't have to be opened as an attachment by

    "when I try save to PDF it just wants to save it to a file?"
    Correct. The difference between "Mail PDF" and "Save PDF" is that the first opens a new Mail message with the file attached. the second saves a file which you may attach to an email message.
    "Terrainathome is a good example of what I am trying to do."
    Not familiar with Terrainathome, but my guess is that the company is sending an email message containing HTML code that downloads what's essentially a web page into the displayed message. To do that, you'll need a website, software that will produce the necessary HTML code, and recipients with email clients capable of interpreting HTML (which is 'most email clients' these days).

  • How can I add location to a photo that does not have a gps location? On iPhoto it was easy.

    how can I add location to a photo that does not have a gps location? On iPhoto it was easy.

    You can use the Settings in the slideshow to Show Captions,  either the Description filed be display, the Title field or both.
    If you create the slideshow in iDVD from still photos from iPhoto you can add the Description and/or Title via the settings in iDVD.
    Since iDVD adds both automatically the user must go thru the slideshow and remove those items not wanted.

  • How can I import comments from shared reviewer who doesn't have acrobat pro?

    How can I import comments from shared reviewer who doesn't have acrobat pro? I sent out a shared review, but not all of the reviewers have acrobat pro, they do have acrobat reader 9 and have made comments on the document, but they do not appear when I open the shared review from the workspace. Can I import his comments so that they are apart of the shared review?

    I figured it out, so I will share just in case anyone else has this issue...
    The reviewer emailed me his comments on the document. I opened it and made a comment. When I went to publish my comment a dialogue box opended asking if I wanted to publish his comments to the shared review for him. Says yes and the reviewers comments are now published and a part of the shared review.

    How can I reinstall my Deskjet F4180 if I do not have the install disk

    Jerry, welcome to the forum. Since you didn't mention which OS you are using, I provided the Software and drivers page for Win 8.1.  It provides the HP Deskjet F2100/F4100 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver.  This will install the printer.  If the OS is not correct, you can provide the correct one. Please click the "Thumbs up + button" if I have helped you and click "Accept as Solution" if your problem is solved.

  • Charging iPod on pc that doesn't have iTunes

    Is it ok and safe to charge my iPod on a computer (like at work) that doesn't have iTunes and has a USB 1 port? What it the best way to disconnect? Being new to an iPod I don't want to harm it. =)

    "Is it ok and safe to charge my iPod on a computer (like at work) that doesn't have iTunes and has a USB 1 port?"
    Yes. Presumably this usb 1.1 provides enough power?
    "What it the best way to disconnect?"
    Use the “safely remove hardware” icon in the system tray next to the clock (looks like a grey rectangle with a green arrow above it). Click on this then select your iPod. Or through Windows, select start/my computer, right click on the iPod, select eject.

  • Is it possible to connect your ipod touch to a computer that doesn't have iTunes installed on it?

    My computer that I usually use has recently died and I cannot access my iTunes.
    Is it possible to connect my ipod touch to a computer that does not have iTunes just so that I can get my content off my ipod?

    Hello,
    What you mean by content?
    But anyways you will need to install iTunes to the other computer for syncing/backuping etc.
    Just download and install on the other computer.
    And if it's not a HDD problem with you old computer you can maybe get back even some backups if you had.
    Hope it helps,

  • My old MacBook Pro crashed before I could back up my iTunes. How can I restore all my music from that computer to my iTunes on my new computer?

    My old MacBook Pro (2007) crashed on me before I had backed up all of my music on my iTunes to another source (my iPod has also crashed so I cannot use the iPod to sync all my music). I now have a new Windows 8 laptop and have downloaded iTunes onto it with my Apple ID. Is there any way for me to recover all of my songs from my old iTunes account and put them in my new iTunes? I had thousands of songs and would like to recover them if possible. Is the only way to do this by getting an external hard drive and paying someone to get all that information off my crashed computer onto the external hard drive?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    You can transfer songs that you didn't buy from the iTunes store but it requires third party software such as Suneti. This is one of the best programs I know for the task and unfortunately I'm not aware of any freeware programs that transfer music from an iOS device to the computer.

  • How can I remove a malicious browser extention that doesn't show a "remove" button?

    I'm using Firefox 31.0 on Mac OSX and recently noticed a "JolleyWallet" popup and some suspect "Photo-Zoom V10 0.95.14" browser extension that I did not install myself.
    I would very much like to permanently be rid of the extension however there is no option to "Remove" it as there usually is for other extensions. Is there a way to manually delete a malicious extension like this?

    Extensions that do not have a remove button are installed globally.

  • Can I install SAPDings on Windows system that doesn't have SAPGUI installed

    I am working on a Windows system that has never had SAPGUI installed and am dealing with a PowerPoint file that was created on a system that did have SAPGUI, and the author used some SAPDIngs characters but did not embed the TT fonts in the PPT file that he sent me.
    How can I get those fonts installed on my system without installing SAPGUI?  Is it possible at all?  I have tried to email the TT font file from another system that does have the fonts, but neither Outlook nor Lotus Notes appears to want to let me attach the file to an email.
    Any suggestions from the group?

  • ITunes keeps crashing with latest update when I try to sync my iPad and iPhone.  No issues syncing my ATV's.  Any suggestions?

    In fact, when I am in iTunes and click on either my iPad or IPhone it shows the sync options and ten within 10 or so seconds iTunes gets the "closed unexpectedly" error message.  Very frustrating....updated to latest iTunes version yesterday, and this issue started today.  Thanks in advance for your ideas.

    If possible... you need to Upgrade to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x  (which will Run iTunes Version 11)

    Do this first...

    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
