How do you Deauthorize a machine from your account

Hi all, I don't know if I'm posting in the right place or not, If I'm not then I'm sorry. How do you Deauthorize a Machine from your account, anybody know? what it is. When I set the account up to buy tracks from Itunes. I was using the same Laptop that I'm using now, Just a differnt hard drive as The old hard drive died on me. I never bought any tracks from Itunes so I didn't have any to lose. I couldn't deauthorize this laptop because I didn't know that the laptop was going to die on me. In went the new hard drive. re-installed windows xp pro & re-installed itunes 8.1 clicked on authorize this machine & it came up with 3 machines out of 5. it's the same Laptop on the account. how to I remove this laptop twice from the account is it possible cheers?, If i do remove 1 of the machines, will I lose the rights to play back the tracks that I've bought today?

You can't deauthorise 'dead' installations or computers you no longer have access to individually. However once you reach the limit of 5 authorisations you have the option to deauthorise them all in one go from your iTunes account and start over. *Just note that you can only use this option once a year*: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

    I need to reformat my computer so I want to take my printer off my account so I won't have to create a new account when I get everything re-installed.

    You don't have to create a new account. It is linked to the code for printer that you registered. ePrint is computer-LESS!!!

  • How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop

    How do you remove duplicate images from your all images file on your mac desktop?

    Don't under any circumstances.
    All images is not a file. It's not a place. It's a list. Specifically, it's the result of an instruction: List all the images on my machine.
    When you delete something from All Images, then you have no idea what you're removing from where - files that are part of word processing docs, interface elements, corrupting your iPhoto Library. There are many perfectly legitimate reasons why you might have what appears to be duplicates but are not.
    Rule number One: Never delete anything on your machine whose job you don't understand.

  • How do you transfer voice memos from your phone to computer

    How do you transfer voice memos from your phone to computer

    Is it possible to transfer a voice memo to my computer and then convert that to text that can be printed?
    Here is my problem. I study harbor seals and have always taken hand written notes that then must be typed into the computer when I get home from an observation. Is there any way I can dictate what I see to a voice memo and then have that translated to text. If there is which would do it best an iphone or ipad (I have neither, just a tracphone for an emergency).
    Perhaps this is asking too much from the technology available but it would be a great help if I could do this.
    Thanks for any help you can give!

  • HOW DO YOU REMOVE A BOOK FROM YOUR IPOD?

    HOW DO YOU REMOVE A BOOK FROM YOUR IPOD?

    Do you mean an audiobook?  It will depending on how you have your iPod and iTunes setup.  In the Sidebar, you should be able to expand the items under your iPod so you can see Books.  Then rt click on the audiobook in your iPod's audiobooks and click delete.  If the Sidebar is not open, then on Windows, the Crtl + S key will open it.
    If you're 'Syncing' you iPod to iTunes, there will be other steps to remove the audiobook.  You'd probably need to uncheck the audiobook in iTunes, then re-sync.

  • HT2729 How do you delete a Podcast from your Mac?

    How do you delete a Podcast from your MacBook Air?
    <Email Edited by Host>

    To delete an entire podcast you have subscribed to - with all its episodes - select it and hit delete. You will be asked whether you want to move it to the trash or leave it in the Library - if you choose the latter option it wil disappear from iTunes but the files will still be taking up space in the Library.
    If you have mistakenly chosen the keep option, go to (user)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Podcasts and delete the files. Do not do this if you have not removed it from the iTunes application - delete it there to avoid messing up the indexing.

  • How do you eject speakers properly from your mac?

    How do you eject speakers properly from your mac?

    speakers (3.5 mm out) do not matter how they are removed, just unplug them and you will be fine
    when this happens, Mac Core Audio (you dont need to know about it, but an important part) will look for another output device, and your internal speakers are likely to start playing
    if you use USB or FireWire speakers, there is a possibiliy that they use some sort of strange arbitrary driver
    in that case, go to system preferences> sound> output> and select something else than the speakers in question.
    then you should be able to unplug at will.

  • TS1702 How do you remove unwanted apps from your newsstand?

    How do you remove unwanted magazines from your newsstand?

    I have the ipod touch 5th generation. I tried to remove the magazine from the newsstand by pressing and holding the magazine until it wiggled but no delete option appeared (that small little "x" in the upper corner). After some rather frustrating searches that revealed nothing I plugged my ipod into my computer via USB and opened itunes. From there i clicked on the ipod button at the top right under the search option which opened the ipod contents. Click on Apps and you can remove magazines from here. Hope this helps!

  • How do you remove credit card # from iTunes account

    How do you remove credit card # from iTunes account without entering a new one because added money to account from gift card?

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iPhone then try tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and select 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
