HT1420 De-authorizing a computer that crashed

Hello!
My old computer crashed so I cannot de-authorize it.  Tried authorizing my new computer, but we have too many computers associated with this account.  Question is:  How do I de-authorize my broken computer so that I can authorize my new computer. 
Thanks,
Gaby

You need to deauthorize all, then authorize the active computers.

  • I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini.  My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed.  So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone.  How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

    I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini.  My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed.  So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone.  How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

    If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help.  Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive. 

  • I had my Ipod touch 4gen on itunes of computer that crashed. On new computer i updated it, hit the wrong button, and lost everything. How do i get my old songs, apps, and account money back?

    I had my ipod 4gen itunes on a computer that crashed. With the new computer I update it to the lastest version. I hit the wrong transfer button and lost everything. How do I get my old songs, apps, and money back from my old account, if thats possible?

    I cant find any of my recently bought songs or the apps i have purchased. When I was updating my ipod there was a button that asked about transfering purchases and I didnt read it, and I didnt update manually so i think thats why i lost everything. I clicked on the intrustions and clicked on apps and i coulnt find any of my old stuff.

  • How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed?

    How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed? I cannot use the software on my new computer because of too many users.

    Will you please provide a specific telephone number or chat link? I seem to be in a loop, that gets me back to the same place:
    I click on your above link ...
    Then Deactivation and sign-out problems
    Then Error "Activation limit reached" or "Sign in failed" | Adobe products
    Then Can't access your previous computer?
    Then "Don't have access to the previous computer on which you installed the application?Contact us. Be sure to have any purchase-related information ready."
    "Contact Us" takes me back to "Need help?", which eventually directs me to this forum in the first place.
    Thanks you.

  • I have a nano with 500 songs that was synced with my old computer that crashed.  New iTunes account does not have these songs in my library.  I would like to move the music to the library so I can place them on my iPhone and/or iPad.

  • I have about 200 pics that I downloaded onto my iPad 2 from a folder on my computer that crashed recently.How doI update and back up my iPad without losing those pics?

    I have about 200 pics that I downloaded onto my iPad 2 from a folder on my computer that crashed recently. How do I update and back up my iPad without losing those pics? Pics of my 4 beautiful kids... do not want to lose these!

    What would you have done if you didn't have an iPad?
    Photos on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data. The iPad is not designed to intended to be a backup storage device.
    The transfer of photos from a computer to an iOS device via the iTunes sync process is a one way transfer only - from the computer to the device. Photos are optimized for viewing on the device the photos are being transferred to - the original resolution of the photos is changed, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported.
    There are some 3rd party paid utilities that support transferring these photos in the opposite direction.

  • How can i deauthorize a computer that crashed and is now in the trash world? i purchased a new laptop and need to authorize my computer

    how can i deauthorize a computer that crashed and is now in the trash world? i purchased a new laptop and need to authorize my computer

    You cannot, nor do you need to, until you reach the limit of 5.  Once you reach 5, then you can deauthorize all, and then authorize the active computers.

  • I have an iPod that has music from CD's that I no longer have. The iPod was synced to an old computer that crashed. My current iPhone and my old iPod share an itune's account. Is there a way I can transfer my music from my old iPod to my new computer?

    I have an old iPod touch with songs from CD's I no longer have (so they weren't purchased on iTunes). The computer that the songs were synced on crashed a while ago. Is there a way I can sync my old iPod to my new computer and retrieve those songs to get them on my new iPhone? They share an Apple ID and iTuens account.

    Most Windows users don't.
    Purchase an external hard drive and use the backup software that comes with it to backup files from your computer.
    Buy TouchCopy and install it on your new computer, connect your old iPod and transfer your songs to your computer.

  • I daughter's iPod touch is password locked and authorized to computer that doesn't exist anymore. i want to set it up on my iTunes but it won't recognize it because of the failed password attempts. what can i do?

    My daughter's ipod touch is password locked and attached to a computer that doesnt exist anymore. i want to authorize it to my computer itunes account but itunes wont even read it due to the password failure. what can i do?

    That's by design. The password is designed to protect the user's information and cannot be circumvented. You can restore it to "new" condition though, and sync it to your computer. The iPod Touch's content will be securely erased by doing this.
    Refer to iOS: Unable to update or restore. Follow the instructions exactly as written.

  • De authorizing a computer that won't run QT

    How do you deauthorize a computer that won't run quicktime, causing itunes not to launch?
    Or better yet, how do you fix quicktime so it works, allowing itunes to run in the first place.

    Thanks for your reply!
    My OS is posted along with my original post... XP pro... But is at the SB2 with all the latest updates via automatic updates. I can't seem to properly uninstall quicktime, as it gives me an error, and re installing gives an error as well, but I don't have those errors readily available to post at this time.
    Running QT itself provides no error information. It simply doesn't run! When launched, I get an hourglass for a few moments, and it's done! That's it.
    I had downloaded the latest at the time the other posting was made. I'll try again with the latest. I Don't expect any improvement.
    Perhaps I'll use your recommendation and deauthorize all, and re authorize those that still work. I'll likely need to reformat and install everything on this system to get it working again as it looks.

  • How do I deauthorize an account on a computer that crashed?

    My laptop crashed and I had to reinstall the original software. When I attempted to reinstall iTunes, I was unable to, because I had reached the maximum devices on my account.  I tried deleting the device from the list on my account and did so successfully, but it still lists 5 devices.  How do I deauthorize a device that has crashed?

    I think you'll have to unauthorize all then re-authorize ones you want unless this works
