HT1420 How can I deauthorise an ipod from a computer that I no longer have?

I have bought my 3 kids ipod touches for christmas about 5 years ago and they lost them. So i went to Apple and had them replaced and now I can not authorize the new ones because of the old ones.

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.

    Ipods are not authorized at all.  Only computers are authorized.
    Change your password if someone is using your account without permission.

  • How do i transfer my ipod from a computer that has crashed to a new one?

    how do I transfer my ipod data from one computer to another

    You just need to home share between both computers. Then select all the songs and click import on to the new computer. If you have a playlist, then you will need to either recreate the playlist on to the new computer or you can copy the itunes library.itl, the .itl file might have a different name but that is the file that has all of your library playlists. I am not sure if this will fix your problem but that is what I did and it worked for me hope that helps.

  • How can I retrive a video from the iCloud that's no longer on my phone?

    I don't think I deleted the videos but they are no longer on my device. How can I retrive thse???

    Yes, to restore an iCloud backup you have to start by completely erasing your phone so you would need to save any recent data that is not contained in the backup before doing so.  You could, for example, import any recent photos/videos to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
    To restore an iCloud backup, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup and follow the prompts.  Be sure the phone is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.

  • HT203167 how can i get my library back if computer crashed and no longer have iPod

    I have lost my library due to a computer crash. I no longer have iPod. Please help me get my apps and music back to mew com

    As long as the apps (and the same applies to ibooks) are still available in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free - and, depending on what country that you are in, you might also be able to re-download music and TV show purchases (and if you are in the US then some/all films) : re-downloading past purchases.

  • 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.

  • How can I add old bookmarks from another computer to the ones I have on my new computer?

    My old computer crashed; and was replaced with a new one running Windows 7. I had saved my bookmarks, but couldn't find the thumb drive where they were saved, so began using Firefox on my new computer. Now I have bookmarks saved onto my new computer, but want to upload and merge my old bookmarks. I've only found a way to restore bookmarks that will complete wipe out the new ones. Short of writing down all the new ones and adding them back after restoring the old ones, is there any other way to merge the two?

  • How can I transfer purchased itunes from my computer to my iPod without losing/erasing the current songs on my iPod?

    How can I transfer purchased iTunes from my computer to my iPod without losing all the songs I currently have on my iPod?  I've already burned the purchased songs onto DVDs, but they still aren't recognized as authorized songs that I can copy onto my iPod.  One other note:  The songs I purchased were done so with iTune versions much earlier than 10.0, does that matter?  I couldn't tell you what version though.   

    Not sure what you are saying.
    What is stopping you from adding the songs?
    Are you getting an error message?

    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.
