If you can't use the Deauthorize All function and repeatedly deauthorizing your computer individually doesn't work, you need to contact the iTunes Store staff.

    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.)

    Use the Deauthorize All function, or log into it through Virtual Network Computing and individually deauthorize it.

  • How can you tell which computer that is authorized as the master?

    I have several computers that I have connected my iPhone to. How can I tell which computer I should connect to before updating the operating system? I don't want to loss data if I don't have to.

    I am not that familiar with Apple and iTunes and was getting help from someone who said that I can plug my iPhone into my computers but that I would have to authorize the iPhone on each but the limit is 5.
    This is not accurate.
    You can authorize up to 5 computers with the same iTunes account. There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer.
    An iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on one computer only, and photos can be transferred from one computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    This is why I asked - you have connected your iPhone to each one of these computers for what?
    I was not sure which computer I first used. Is there a simple way to check?
    No, or I would have provided that with my first reply.
    If you connect your iPhone to a "non-master" computer to install the update, you will be provided a warning.
    How many computers are you talking about? If 5 or less, this should take you no more than 10 minutes to determine which computer you transferred music and photos from.

  • HT1420 how can I deathorize a computer that has been destroyed?

    I had iTunes on a work computer that I had to turn in and it was completely wiped.  I only uninstalled iTunes and I did not deauthorize it.  How can I delete it without having the computer any more?

    Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them. Otherwise when you reach 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 authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

  • HT1420 how can we deauthoize a computer that doesn't work any more to be able to authorize on new computer

    We had 5 computers authorized for itunes but have 3 of them that are no longer useable and no one deauthorized them and now we have a new computer that we can't authorize becuase it says we have 5 already.

    About Authorization and Deauthorization of iTunes - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420.   You can deauthorize all computers once per year.  You then can go the computer you currently have, and authorize them individulally.

  • HT1420 How can I deauthorize a computer that is not hooked up

    I am new to Mac's. While I do have iphone and iPad I am trying to learn to navigate this Computer and having trouble hooking up my iTunes. It says I have to deactivate one computer but the only one I would like to deactivate is the olod one which is not hooked up. What should I do to fix this?

    You cannot deauthorize a computer that you do not have access to.
    You would have to deauthorize all, then authorize the active computers.

  • How can I make Firefox recognise that I have changed the DNS servers to use?

    After I edit /etc/resolv.conf to make my computer use more reliable DNS servers, Firefox doesn't notice until I restart it. How can I make Firefox notice the change without restarting it?

    I discovered that I can do this by ticking Work Offline in the File menu, and then immediately unticking it again.
    (I believe this mimics what would happen if the operating system disconnected and reconnected from a wireless network, which would be a situation where Firefox would need to check for new DNS servers. So that explains why it works.)

  • How can i deauhorize a computer that doesnt work anymore?

    How can i deauthorize a computer that doesnt work anymore?

    Hi,
    If you can't start iTunes on a computer, you can't deauthorize.  But really, don't worry for the reason that, once you will reach the 5 authorizations you are allowed to, you will be able to use the "deauthorize all computer" option to reset all of them (this can be done once per year).
    i would also like to change my main device to my new computer.
    I don't understand this one.  As of computer authorization, there isn't any "main" device.

    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.

  • My computer crashed so i had to reformat, but the only problem is i lost my old itunes account, had to download new version. Now i have an ipod full of music but how can i place all my music I have on the ipod into my new itunes account??

    Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

  • How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them

    How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them. They have a ton of books but I can only listen to them from my windows media player and I wouldlove to download to my I pod but I have tried everything I can think of it they won't go over.  Someone said all I had to do was copy them over and they would convert but I can't even get them to copy.  Thanks.

    Well it started happening AGAIN with my 2nd IPod. No matter what I did, it Itunes would NOT restore it!
    I finally installed Itunes on my hubby's PC at work and managed to get it restored there.
    Apparently, there must be some sort of compatibility issue with the windows version of Itunes and some other piece of software on my pc.
    And one more important thing! I had to follow the instructions in the other thread that talks about how to correctly uninstall itunes and quicktime, in order to completely eliminate ALL traces of my "first" ipod's existence so it wouldn't demand that I restore it.
    I think the software got "confused" and thought when I connected my 2nd ipod, that it was the 1st and that it still needed to be restored.
    Basically, this is just POORLY written and POORLY tested software!

  • I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??

    If you want to see what is in a file that is backed up by time machine then you have to restore the entire file. Having said that I have had good experience with Time Machine and individual files... if the file is there then all of it's components are almost for sure there. A way to get around this in Aperture would be to use referenced images. The images then still exist as individual files and can be backed up and restored individually. You would have to do so on a file by file basis though and your album information would still only be saved within the Aperture library.

  • Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc?  How do I delete a place I have set up?

    Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc?  How do I delete a place I have set up?  Then I could create a new, correct entry.  I'm using iPhoto '09.

    Is it OK to reply to my own question?? Thanks to the related posts that appeared AFTER I'd made the post above, I learnt about the 'Manage my places' item under the Windows menu. I felt a bit dumb not knowing this.
    BUT it doesn't completely resolve the issue.  The info shown in the EXIF (using opt-cmd-I) under Places has the place name I choose, but it is followed by a few other lines that are incorrect and do not seem to be anything to do with any data I can see under 'Manage my places'.
    Can anyone explain where these other entries might come from, and how to edit them?
