You can authorise your account on a computer's iTunes via the Store drop-down menu at the top of iTunes - if you using a PC with iTunes 11 then Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear.

  • I can't authorize my computer! I just changed computers and I can't access my old purchases because I can't find where to authorize my new computer!! I can deauthorize the other computers, which I just did, but it can't find anything else

    I can't find the "Authorize your computer" in the Itunes Store. I can't download my old purchases because it tells me I have to authorize the computer, but I can't find it anywhere!! I can enter my account and deauthorize the old computers, which I did, but nothing happens. I can't find the "Advanced" option anywhere either.

    Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • I tried to authorize a new computer with windows 8. Per iTunes Help,there should be an "authorize computer" section on the iTunes store menu. I only have two computers authorized so I know another one is possible. Suggestions?

    I tried to authorize a new computer with Windows 8 for my iTunes acct.  Per iTunes Help, there is an "authorize computer" prompt in the menu selection on iTunes store website. I can find no such listing.  I have two computers linked to my account so I know that adding another one would be ok.  Any suggestions?

  • How do I authorize my new computer with Windows 8?

    I recently recieved a new computer (A notebook PC) with windows 8 and I decided that I would like for it to have all of my purchases from Itunes on it.  I promptly downloaded the app, signed in, and attempted to download my music from my account.  Then a message appeared stating that only authorized computers could download previous purchases from my account.  I went to the website in search of a way to authorize this new computer, but to no avail.  I was wondering if anyone could help me authorize my computer so that I can finally listen to my music.  Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks!

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • HT5622 How can I authorize a new computer (with windows 8) without deauthorizing my other computers (windows 7) . Under manage your account the only choice given is to deauthorize all computers already authorized

    I just bought a new computer with windows 8. I have 2 other computers (windows 7) authorized for itunes. When I go to manage your account the only choice I am give is to deauthorize all computers. There is no place from which to authorize this new computer or to deauthorize the 1 computer that is dead rather than both. Suggestions appreciated

    To authorize the Windows 8 computer, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.
    It isn't possible to individually deauthorize a computer which is dead or which you don't have either physical or network access to.

  • 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.

    Hi..
    Check your debit or credit card account to see if the transaction went through, or if you purchased from the balance of a redeemed gift card, see if the amount of purchase was deducted.

  • HT1420 I tried to authorize my new computer and can't find the link anywhere?

    I tried to authorize my new computer and can't find the link anywhere? Also iTunes only recovered the songs I purchased from the iStore, what about the rest?

    If the menu bar is not visible, hit CTRL+B then Store > Autorize this computer
    iTunes Store keeps a purchase history for your Apple ID and allows ypou to redownload purchases. Any other media add to iTunes from outside the store (CDs, etc..) are not uploaded to iTunes unless you have purchased iTunes Match. Those items you will need to add from your backups.

    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.
