  • How to unauthorize dead computer

    my computer hdd died. i have restored my computer and using a new install of itunes. how do i deauthorize the old setup on the same but new computer?

    Take a look at this Apple support article; it may help:
    One computer using multiple iTunes Store authorizations
    If not, you can authorize a total of up to five systems, so unless you've hit that limit it's probably not really important that you reclaim that extra authorization at this time. If you really want to deauthorize, you can go into your iTunes Store account and there will be a "deauthorize all" button. You can then re-authorize the computers you're using now.
    Note that you can only use the "deauthorize all" option once per year, unless something's changed very recently, so do this only if you really do need to recover that authorization.

  • How to "unauthorize or deactivate" computer from CC when in repair service?

    How to unauthorize this computer from my CC account temporarily while being serviced for repairs?
    I am taking my iMac in for servicing...from which it may never return...but it might...so I just want to "unauthorize" my Creative Cloud installed applications on my computer like I did in the past. I don't want to "uninstall" the applications in case I will still be using them on this computer but I don't want to be in the situation of having more than two computers authorized on my Creative Cloud account and being "locked out" if this computer becomes "decommissioned."
    Sorry but I could not find this information in FAQ.
    Thanks,
    Ann Mehrman

    Not sure why this didn't come up in the forum search engine but found it on the Adobe site through a Google search:
    How to deactivate or sign out
    A single license for Adobe software lets you install the applications on two computers—for example, at home and at the office. However, you can use the software on only one computer at any given time.
    If you want to install the software on a third computer, deactivate the software on the computer on which you will no longer use the software. Then, activate the software on the new computer.
    Creative Cloud Applications
    Signing out of one Creative Cloud application deactivates all Creative Cloud applications associated with your Adobe ID on that computer.
    Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
    Start the application.
    Choose Help > Sign Out (Your Adobe ID).
    Click Sign Out.
    Alternately, you can sign out from all Creative Cloud applications on your machine using the Creative Cloud app for desktop.
    Open the Creative Cloud Desktop App.
    Choose the Settings icon.
    Choose Preferences.
    Choose Account.
    Choose Sign Out from Creative Cloud.

  • HT1146 how do i unauthorize a computer away from home

    How do I unauthorize a computer if i don't know which one.

    Hi Shelly,
    Can you be a bit more explicit?
    How many computers are authorized?
    What/how does the "away from home" & "don't know which one" come into play exactly?

    How do I unauthorize a computer?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    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.

  • HT1420 The instructions on how to authorize a computer need links. I can't find store menu and I can't find authorize this computer.

    Hi - Does someone know how to authorize a computer so it will play the songs you've bought from iTunes? I've wasted nearly two hours trying.  It all began when I tried to remove a previously authorized computer which broke down years ago.
    Step 1 - Log in with apple ID, go into account and click the deauthorize computers button (that's what they tell you to do if you can't connect the broken computer to deauthorize it).  I managed that. 
    Result - Now it says I have no authorized computers. Fair enough.  Except I'm trying to reauthorize the one and only working computer we own so it plays the music we've previously bought, and so we can use the iTunes store credit we still have.
    Step 2 - Try and reauthorize the working computer - the one I'm typing on - it was authorized earlier today - until I had to unauthorize it to remove the defunct computer  with that deauthorize all button.
    Anyway the instructions to authorize/reauthorize a computer say, "Go to Store menu - then authorize this computer. " Sounds simple!
    It's at this point I'm stuck - the instructions are insufficient for me.There are no links to redirect you to the correct place to authorize your computer. It just says to go to store and authorize this computer. When I press store it's connecting me to store but I can't find anything that says authorize this computer - I can just see album covers etc. On the right I can see our account but I can't find store menu or an authorize this computer button in that either. If I click on our account it says that we have no authorized devices or computers. I'm logged into our account with the correct apple ID - otherwise I wouldn't be able to read that we have no authorized computers would I? And I've logged in and out several times and tried to refresh the page.
    Could someone please send me a link to the Store menu so I can click on the correct page then hopefully reauthorize our previously authorized computer. We are using Windows 7, but I don't know what version of itunes - it's a fairly recent version though.
    I wish they would make removing and authorizing computers easier - can't they just put a button on the main screen or something?

  • How to make my computer send all the audio through optical audio cable instead of headphone jack?

    Howdy,
    To listen to online radios or CD's played from my computer, I used to connect the computer to my home entertainment system from the computer's headphone jack to the AUX port on my home entertainment system.
    I now wanted to get better sound and purchased the optical audio cable. However, I don't know how to tell my computer to send the audio signal to the home entertainmeny system through the optical digital cable rather than through the headphone jack. If I just unplug the cable connecting the headphone jack and the AUX port and only have the PC and the system connected with the optical audio cable, I don't hear any sounds. I suspect the computer isn't sending any data through the optical audio port. I'm not able to find how I can adjust the settings on my computer so that from now all sounds are output through the optical audio.
    1) I'd like to do that mainly for my HP desktop (configuration below) and any advice on how to do that would be appreciated.
    2) I also have a HP laptop (configuration below) and was wondering if that would be doable too (even though it doesn't appear to have a audio out, but it has HDMI out - can one convert it to optical audio?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello @_goma,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! 
    I have read your post on how you are looking to make your computer send all the audio through an optical audio cable instead of the headphone jack, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    To configure your desktop to enable the optical audio cable, I recommend following the steps below:
    Step 1. Click the Windows Key Button on your desktop
    Step 2. Type "Control Panel"
    Step 3. Select "Control Panel" in the top right-hand corner
    Step 4. Select Sound
    Step 5. Under the Playback tab, right-click the white area below the devices available
    Step 6. Select "Show Disabled" and "Show Disconnected Devices"
    Step 7. Connect your Optical Audio Cable
    Step 8. Select your Optical Audio Cable as the default device and click "Enable"
    Since it is not possible to convert the HDMI out to audio out on your notebook computer, it is unfortunate that the notebook is not able to connect with an optical audio cord.
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

  • HT1420 I'm trying to authorize a new computer with an itune account, but my the computer statea that I have too many devices authorized. I only have 2 computers in my possession now. How can I deauthorize computer I don't have anymore without deauthorizin

    I have recently purchased a new lap top. Both my wife and I share our Itune music. When I purchesed the computer I was able to authorize my itunes account on it and move my purchaced music over from my iphone. However, I was not able to move my wifes music over because she has too many devices authorized under her account. Most of those computers are no longer in our possession and have been thrown out. How can she deauthorzise computer we don't have in our possession anymore without deauthorizing them all?

    Authorizing deauthorizing has NO effect at all on your itunes library.  You lose nothing.
    You should also alwasy have a backup copy.
    You MUST deauthorize all.
    You have the only answer there is.

    I had bought a Mac PRE 13 in,  in 7th Sep in the online Apple Store,
    but it is 15th Sep today,how doesn't my computer come to me yet?
    So,how can I check where the computer is at this moment?

    Call the online Apple Store.  You should have received an email with a FedEx tracking # if you are in the US.

    how to deauthorize a computer that is not with me anymore?

    If you log into your account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes then on your account's screen (under the 'Apple ID Summary' heading) there should be a 'Computer Authorisations' line with a 'Deauthorise All' button to the right of it - you can only 'deauthorise all' once every 12 months.

    Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|Previous Sh' | tail | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
