How to find your computer authorizations

I'm still on MobileMe and backing up to my computer by plugging into it. I just plugged my iPhone4 in to my MacPro and got a message that this computer was not authorized, and do I want to authorize it? To which I responded yes and then I got a message that said of my 5 allowable computures, 3 were not authorized. I only own one computer, but I do have an iPad and I DID have my work PowerPC iMac which I don't any longer, but don't remember authorizing it. And the only computer I only backed up to was my Mac Pro here at home.
The only other thing I can think of is that I recently replaced my main hard drive in my MacPro that I backed up to and changed the name of the drive from "Mac Pro" to "New Pro"
OK... there's as much of the back story as I know.
How can I find out what the 3 computers are that iTunes thinks I've authorized? And can I "deauthorize" all but "New Pro" which I'm backing up to now?
Thx,
Steven

"How can I find out what the 3 computers are that iTunes thinks I've authorized?"
You cannot.
" And can I "deauthorize" all but "New Pro" which I'm backing up to now?"
Not until you reach the max of 5. 
There is no need to do anything until you have reached the limit of 5.

  • HT4859 How To find your iCloud Backup?!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!!!!??!!!!

    How To find your iCloud Backup?!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!!!!??!!!!

    Restoring to an iCloud backup has to be done in the initial setup process.  If you have any data on your iPod now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.

  • How to ensure your computer information is kept private and to prevent other devices from accessing it

    Recently I was on a public network and it seemed to me that my volume kept on increasing while I was trying to watch a video. I contemplated that it might be my key stuck, but it seemed fine every other time I used it (and is fine now at home). That led me to the conclusion that someone was probably remotely accessing my macbook's volume setting for some malicious prank.
    How would you be able to tell if a device is remotely connected to yours, without authorisation?
    ====
    I also looked up the possibility that people were using 'ssh' to harrass me. I'm not quite sure how it works, but I would like to make it so that people would not be able to find my computer's information to connect to it in the future.

    TM backups retain the same exact permissions as the originals. so if other users did not have access to them on the main drive, they won't have access to them on the backup drive either.
    and be VERY careful playing with permissions on the TM drive. it's easy to ruin TM backups that way.

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • How to change your 'computer name' ?

    I have just 'migrated' ( using the software install - by a firewire cable ) from my old PowerBook G4 to a MacBook Pro - Everything is fine except now my MacBook Pro is called PowerBook G4 15" on the start-up screen and system profiler title.
    My question is how do you change this 'computer name' ?
    Many thanks in advance.

    You can change your computer name in System Preferences (found under the Apple menu) in the Sharing pane. At the top of the pane it will say Computer Name: PowerBook G4 15".
    Note that the name can contain spaces. Mine, for example, is Ministry of Magic.
    Delete the current name and enter the new name. Note that you do not have to click the edit button out to the right. That is only useful if you want to change the bonjour address on your local subnet to be something different from NewComputerName.local (where NewComputerName is the new name you just changed it to.
    Hope this helps. Good luck.

  • How to find your BIOS without reboot - for MSI support

    When sending in a question to the MSI support team, they will not only ask for your computer model but also for your BIOS.
    Usually this means a reboot, a reboot in which you may miss the BIOS information...
    Here is the easy way to do it without restarting your computer.
    1: Right click on Start and then Run.
    2: In the text box in the Run window, type msinfo32 and click OK. This will open the System Information program.
    3: When System Information first opens, it defaults to the System Summary, a short list with some of the most important information about your computer system listed.
    4: On the right side of the program, locate the BIOS Version/Date entry.
    5: This field contains the BIOS version that is currently running on your motherboard. This field may also contain additional information such as the BIOS date, BIOS manufacturer, motherboard manufacturer and the motherboard model number.
    6: Write down the numbers in your support window and close System Information.
    Thats it.
    Best Regards

  • How to find your ipod without find my iphone?

    my ipod got stolen, and i dont have Find My iPhone turned on, but obviously I need to find it. How do you do it????

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • How to find your stolen iPod touch

    My 4th generation white 16 GB iPod was stolen and I am wondering if there's a way to find or track it down

    If you setup iCloud and enabled Find My iPod on it before it was stolen, you may be able to track it as described here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442.  If it was stolen, it' highly unlikely this will work, however, since criminals know how to restore the device, removing your settings, thereby disabling Find My iPod.  Your best bet is to change all your passwords, contact the police and your insurance company.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 File in Use - How to find the computer that has it in use

    Lately we've been having an access database go into read only mode on our file server. When i go into the manage open files screen on the file server, it show the file being used by a functional account and the open mode is set to read. Which confuses
    me how the file can get set in read only mode when the only person who has it open has it open in read mode. Anyway, when i kick the user out of the file then the database is not read only mode anymore.  Since this is getting accessed by a functional
    account, I'm not sure who is opening it up. Is there a way to find the IP address of this person?

    To get the source IP address, you will need to enable File Share auditing: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd772690%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
    Otherwise, you can simply disconnect the user session.
