How can I deauthorize an old computer that I have no access to?

You cannot yourself deauthorize a computer that's not working or to which you no longer have access. 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 deauthorize your dead unit now. Once you reach five total authorizations, a button will appear in your iTunes Store account that will allow you to deauthorize all your systems, so that would at that time recover the now-useless authorization.
If for some reason you really feel you need to deauthorize a system and you're not at the five-system limit, you can try contacting  the iTunes Store customer support department through their Contact form (follow the on-screen instructions)  and explaining the problem to them. They might be willing to clear your authorizations for you.
Regards

  • HT1420 how can i deauthorize an old computer

    Can anyone tell me how i can deathorize an old computer, so i can sync my iphone to this computer.

    iTunes > Store > "Deauthorize this Computer..."
    You can deauthorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. Otherwise you can "deauthorize all" from your iTunes account.
    Open iTunes on a computer
    From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
    Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
    Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

  • HT1420 How do I deauthorize an old computer that no longer has internet access? Can I do it from a different computer?

    I have an old computer with music on it. I can't get the internet on that computer anymore. I want to deauthorize it and authorize another one. Can I deauthorize a computer from a different computer?  Thanks.

    Only through the Deauthorize All function or by logging into it through Virtual Network Computing.

  • How can I deactivate an old computer that I know longer have?

    How can I deactivate an old computer that I know longer have? I own two computers and Adobe permits two computers on a subscription. However, when I bought my third new computer and didn't deactivate my old computer, I did not notify Adobe. Now, there is a message saying that I must deactivate the old computer to register the new computer. I don't know how to do this. Can anyone help?

  • HT1420 My computer crashed, i have purchased a new one, how can i deauthorize the old computer without logging in on it?

    My old computer crashed. I have purchased a new one but I cannot authorize it on my account until I delete the old. How can I  do this since my old computer does not work?

    You cannot... But...
    If you no longer have, or access to, the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
    Log in to iTunes,  go to "view your account info" on the itunes store,  deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months)  and then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

  • HT1420 how do i deauthorize an old computer

    It says I have old computers, I am currently only using my mac.  I would like to know how to deactivate old computers?

    Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but if you've reached the 5 computer limit then you can log into your account and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then (re-)authorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

  • How can I deauthorize a single computer?  Says 5 are authorized. If I reauthorize all, how can I reauthorize the ones I want?

  • How do I deauthorize my old computer and authorize my new one?

    How do I deauthorize my old computer and authorize a new one?

    If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
    If the computer's running Windows, 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.
    Deauthorization is done the same way, except for choosing Deauthorize this Computer.

    How can I print on a Document that I have Scanned and is on my computer and then print it.

    And what exactly? How did you scan? What "document"? What system? You need to be a lot more specific, especially since it is absolutely not clear what Adobe software has to do with it.

  • After successfully importing my bookmarks through Firefox Sync from my old to new computer, can I purge the old computer and still have the bookmarks on the new

    I want to upgrade my computer and did a Windows Easy Transfer to my new one. My Firefox bookmarks did not show up on my new computer so I used Firefox Sync-which worked fine. Now that I have the bookmarks on the new computer, can I erase the old computer and still have the bookmarks on the new one.

    First, disconnect your old computer from Firefox Sync so you don't accidentally delete the data from sync, but then yes you should be good to go.

    How can i deauthorize a computer that once was authorized then I had to reinstall (windows 7) like 3 times and reload itunes reach time to get this authorization crap. I only have 3 computers actually authorized. This one is the 4th. This is ridicules.

    If you've got 5 computers authorised for the account in question, and you need to free up authorizations, I'd do a "Deauthorize All" from one of the computers you have access to, and then reauthorize the computers you have access to.
    For instructions, see the following document:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    (Best to deauthorise a computer before you reinstall the OS on it.)
