How do you deauthorize individual computers

The only choice is to deauthorize all? I thought I could select which to deauthorize, especially if trying to add another. The prompt says I have authorized 5 . So how do I deauthorize one? Thanks

On the one you wish to deauthorize, open iTunes and use the command Store > Deauthorize This Computer.
This requires that the computer be operational and that you have physical access to it. Otherwise, there is no way to deauthorize it until you hit the limit of 5, at which point you can use the Deauthorize All command.

    How do you deauthorize computers that are no longer functional?

    i followed the directions to deauthorize one "fried" computer and one old Windows laptop i no longer use from my new MacBook Pro.  When i go into iTunes on my new MacBook Pro, however, iTunes says i still have 5 authorized computers and i can't set up my music on my laptop using iTunes Match.  I did not deauthorize all my computers because i still have an iphone and two ipads.  Now that i've invoked deauthorize, what am i supposed to do for the next 12 months until i can deauthorize again?

    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

  • How do you deauthorize if the home computer is no longer available?

    We had to purchase a new home computer recently.  The other computer was the primary for Itunes.  How can we deauthorize other computers from Homeshares now that we do not have the primary computer any longer?

    If you no longer have the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
    Log in to iTunes,  go to "view your account info" on the itunes store,  deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months)  and then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

  • HT1918 how do you know what computers are authorized to use home share before i delete a computer

    how do you know what computers are authorzed to use an I tune account?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There is no way to view a list of authorised computers. You can only tell a computer is authorised from that computer itself, from the store menu in iTunes.

  • HT1420 How do you see what computers are authorized for your account?

    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.

  • How can you deauthorize a computer that you no longer have?

    How can I deauthorize a computer I no longer have? I was trying to sign into my itunes on my computer and it said that it was already being used on 5 other computers and that I would have to deauthorize one of them before I could sign in. I don't have any of those computers anymore so what needs to be done?

  • How do I deauthorize all computers associated with my Apple ID?

    Hi all,
    First post on Apple Support Communities :-)
    When I bought my first Apple product (iPad 2) a few months ago, I didn't know anything about Apple IDs, iTunes Store, Home Sharing and Computer authorizations. I experimented a little with iTunes and home sharing in VMware virtual machines (Windows 7) on my computer (Ubuntu). I quickly used up the 5 authorized computers, so I used the "Deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID" feature in iTunes and kept on experimenting (since I couldn't get things to work properly in my virtual environment).
    Now I have an iPhone 4S and my daughter has an iPod Touch 4G, and I'm planning on buying the new Apple TV. But I'm not going to because I can't have Home Sharing. I can't "clean" the authorized computers because I did it a few months ago and it is only permitted once a year.
    It is possible to request an exception (and how?) and have the authorized computers cleaned up?
    Thanks a lot
    Sebastien

    If you can't deauthorize systems just by the "deauthorize" command under the Store menu in iTunes, then go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the problem to the iTunes Store. They may be willing to clear your authorizations for you.
    Regards.

  • How do you deauthorize a computer if the computer has quit.

    My computer has died. Persons think it is the logic board. I can make it a slave drive to see data on the computer. How do i deauthorize iTunes on that computer?

    I don't believe you can unless you deauthorize all your computers currently authorized. See iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization

  • How do I deauthorize other computers from my homeshare that I no longer have access to?

    I am trying to add a new pc to my homeshare network. When trying to do so it tells me that I already have 5 devices sharing my itunes. How do I deauthorize these other devices that I am no longer using, when I don't have access to them any longer?

    If you no longer have the computers you want to deauhtorize,
    go to "view your account info" on the itunes store,
    deauhtorize all five, and then re-authorize your Computers one at a time.

  • HT1329 How do you deauthorize ipods that no longer work or have been stolen. What does it mean that you only have 5 devices that can download your itunes library. How do you deactivte old serial numbers and add new ones as of now we only have one ipod

    Over the years we have owned many i-pods. Most of them ran out of juice or were just outdated some even stolen. As of right now I have one i-pod that should be authorized to download music from my library. I plan to get a new one. My question is how do you deactivate all the old i-pods so that i-tunes doesnt think I have all these pods downloading from my personal lbrary of music. If I get a new one and plug it in it will say you are authorized 1 or 2  or whatever it is at this point to download music from this libtary. How to I get rid of all the old devices (serial numbers) that don't draw from my i-tunes library anymore?

    Ipods/iphones/ipads/apple tvs are not authorized at all.
    Authorization applies ONLY to computers.

  • HT1420 How do you Deauthorize a computer if its been trashed or can no longer be turned on?

    I have authorized my itunes acount on 5 different computers, but of the 5 i can only access one. I just got a new computer and want to keep my itunes account on my old one and put it on my new one but cant because of the 5 computer limite. The problem is that the other 4 computers that i had authorized before are no longer functional, so how do i deauthorize them if i can even turn them on?

    Log into your iTunes Store account -> Store menu / View Account. The Deauthorize All button will be there.
