How do I deauthorize a lost computer when I've already used my 'Deauthorize All' for the year?

Hi there.
I have been working for months now trying to find a solution on how to deauthorize every computer I have used for my Ipod touch (every computer I have used has been mine, of course). But I've run into an issue: every computer I've authorized (5 total) have been either killed (hard drive died), or reformatted. Thus, now I can no longer go into the computer and 'deauthorize' the computer manually.
As I mentioned above, I've already used my deauthorize all for the year and will not be able to use it again until Febuary 23, 2013.
I cannot wait this long to reaccess my account just so I can save my files & back them up! Please, someone, I need some advice!
What can I do to reaccess my account and deathorize them all again? Is there any process? I do it!
I just want to be able to use my accounts again and back up my Ipod whenever I want!
Sincerely,
Adam

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    To change the login
    - Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
    You may have apps purchased with her account that need updating.

  • How can u de-authorise a computer u no longer have access to? if u have already used de-activate all in the last 12 months?

    really once every 12 months is a bit silly, it should be unlimited..

    Hello tct2125,
    In order to deauthorize a machine that you don't have access to (once you've reached the limit), you'll need to deauthorize all computers associated with your account.
    To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    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.

  • How can I deauthorize all within a year

    Hello,
    I have all five authorized and need to deauthorize all - but I can't until June.  Anyway around this unreaonable restriction?
    In Gassho,
    John

    If you can't deauthorize the relevant computers there at each computer through iTunes, then there is no way around it that you can implement yourself. You'll have to contact the iTunes Store, explain why you now need to deauthorize all your systems again so soon, and ask if they'll do it for you.

    Good luck.

  • How do you recover a pages document when pages crashes before you can save it for the first time

    Pages crashed unexpectedly before I had a chance to save it for the first time.  How can I recover that document?  It must be out there somewhere!!
    Thanks

    If it wasn't saved once it is gone.

  • How can I charge my iPad 2 when I'm already using the port for a projector?

    I run training workshops all day and want to use my iPad to run Keynote or PowerPoint through a projector. I already have the VGA adaptor and that all works fine. Trouble is, the battery only lasts half the day. So I have to swap over to a netbook for the rest of that day while the iPad charges...
    Is there a double-adaptor that will allow me to plug the charger in as well as the VGA adaptor?
    Seems such an obvious thing to want to do but I've looked all over for an adaptor and I haven't found one...
    How can you charge an iPad if the only port on it is already occupied?
    Cheers
    Steve

    Hi Texas Mac Man
    Thanks for your suggestion. Kinda means I have to buy a wireless-capable projector. Most of the VGA projectors in the venues I work with are fixed-in-the-ceiling and not wireless capable...
    My luck with doing off-the-mainstream stuff like jailbreak etc is that (1) it won't work for me, or (2) it all goes horribly wrong, stuffs up my machine and voids the warranty... So I tend to stick to the proprietory stuff.
    Not very adventurous, but then I need dependable stuff with a warranty and someone I can yell at to fix it.
    Maybe Apple will read this and provide a risk-free solution.
    You never know....
    But thank you.

  • Deauthorize all before the year is up?

    I recently got a new computer because my old one broke.  I already used up my 5 authorizations, but two of the computeres are broken.  I can't deauthorize all because it says I have to wait a year before i can do it again. Is there any way for me deauthorize them sooner so I can download my songs on this computer?

  • How do I deauthorize all the computers I have synced to my apple Id when I don't have the computers any more

    How do I deauthorize all the computers I have synced to my apple Id when I don't have the computers any more all I need is to get rid of the ones synced or authorized to my account so I can authorize my new computer thank u people  :)

    If you've reached the 5 computer limit then you can log into your account and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

    I bought a new computer and tried to authorize it.  It states that I already have 5 computers that are authorized.  I no longer have any of those 5 computers.  How do I deauthorize all of them, as it is not shown as an option, as my new computer since it is not authorized.
    Thanks

    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- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

  • I deleted the picture in iphoto, then emptied my iphoto trash, but the picture is still showing on my computer when i go into my trash under "all images" How do you delete pictures even when you empty the trash and they stay in the computer?

    Wtih iPhoto 9 when the iPhoto Trash is emptied the files get moved to the Trash bin in the Dock as a second chance to change your mind.  Look in the Dock's Trash bin.

    You might also want to have a look at the old winutil>Windows API Function Utilities (32-bit) for LabVIEW. While they are written in LabVIEW 4.0 (!), they still seem to work fine under W2000 and LabVIEW 7.0. In particular, have a look at "exit windows.vi" inside "winevent.llb" of the above link. It calls the function "ExitWindowsEx" of user32.dll. Since this is part of the OS, you don't need to include extra DLLs.
    (All the above assumes Windows OS. I don't know how to shutdown the OS on e.g. MAC or linux.)

    NicholasLiban -
       When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process.  This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition.  The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.
