HT1420 How can I find out what computers I have authorised? Or how can I deauthorise a computer if i no longer have access to it?

Hi,
I have 4 authorised computers for my iPhone but I have no idea what 2 of them are. Is there a way I can see what the computers authorised are? Or can I deauthorise computers that I no longer have access to?

I'm not aware of anyway to see a list of your authorised computers. Have you had other computers in the past and/or updated or reinstalled the OS on those that you still have without first deauthorising them ? Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but when 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 authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

HT1420 I forgot what computers I have authorized. How do I find out what computers I have authorized in order to deauthorize the computers I don't want

This is a question more for my mother. She has already authorized 5 computers, but she is pretty positive she hasn't. How do we find out how to find out what computers she has authorized, so we can deauthorize computers she doesn't want. Does it matter if it was an old computer that we don't have anymore, or is it based on accounts that are authorized?

Sign in to the account in question, go to Account Information and under Account ID Summary, you need to Deauthorise All. Then Authorise just the computer(s) you do want.

And why isn't there a list of authprized devices available? Apple knows I have x number of authorized devices, and they know what they are. Why can't I have access to this information about my own account?

How do I find out what computers are authorized on my itunes account? I want to add my MBP to my itunes account but I can't because I already have 5 computers authorized BUT I can't remember what computers I had authorized. I'm assuming iPhones count as computers in this instance.
Thanks

I'm not aware that you can see a list anywhere - and no, iPhones (nor iPads or iPods) count, only computers do (but a computer could count more than once e.g. if you've updated or reinstalled the OS without first deauthorising it).
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 authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

how do i find out what computers have been authorized for my account? I have had one stolen and one died but my account shows 5 pcs authorizied? how do i unauthorize a computer not in my hands?

Iphones do not count. Computers only.
There is no way to find out what computers.
Deauthorize all, then authorize the active computers.

How do i find out what computers are registered. I do not believe I have 5 computers registered

If you mean which computers that your account is authorised on then you can't, you can only see the count.
Have you had other computers in the past and/or updated or reinstalled the OS on your current computers without deauthorising them ?
As you have 5 computers authorised then you can log into your account on a computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option 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.

How do I find out what is in the cloud so I can delete it?

This is a complete outrage. All I did was support Apple and was told to sign in to cloud and now I am told I am using too much space. No idea what this is about and no way to call because I cannot talk. How do I find out what is in the cloud so I can delete it? Is this e-mail, Word documents, or something else? What the heck are they talking about?

It's everything that's stored in icloud: email, backups, calendars, contacts, app data (including iwork documents), .... on and on.
If you need to delete some data to recover some free storage...
You'd have to go into the various apps on a device that is also stored on iCloud and begin trimming files.
Backups:
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud. Turn off camera roll and any other apps that might have a lot of data. Then delete the backup. That will free up space. Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream. Go to Settings>iCloud and turn
Emails:
Regarding emails, on the computer, move emails from mailboxes in icloud to those on the device. That can also save a lot of space.
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage
From there you can find how much and which files are in a backup, and how much different apps use to store data files. At the bottom of the screen is the size of the mail storage.

HT1420 how do i find out what computers are authorized?

I have the problem that as I switch to a new iphone, all of a sudden i get the message from itunes that "you have already authorized 5 computers". I have had a couple of laptops that I no longer have access to. How do I find out what machines i have linked and remove machines from that list?

However, it seems that you can check...

This helped meRe: can i check/edit authorized computers?? Jul 5, 2012 7:25 AM (in response to koraygoksu)
In order to see which devices are authorized on your account:
Open iTunes
Click Store
Click Account
Click View Account
Enter your password
Look in the second section iTunes in the Cloud
To the far right you'll see Manage Devices
Once it's clicked you will see all of the devices currently authorized in iTunes/on your account
I was going to say, "Hope this helps," but based on the above, I'm pretty sure it did!
Thanks guys..."

Re: can i check/edit authorized computers?? Jul 5, 2012 9:27 AM (in response to Tina16)
For anyone who may come across this thread, Tina is incorrect. That doesn't show all the systems that are authorized to a given account, only those which are set up for automatic downloads or redownloading, which isn't the same as those that are authorized to an account to play protected content. There is no way to see a list of those systems which are authorized to the account.

About 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.
Also, see iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

Oh, have you brought up so many good points. Not to take us off-topic, but I could rant all day about Eloqua consulting firms who let low-level employees (Eloqua skill-wise) loose on clients projects. Just not fair for either the employee or client. There was one company that did this to me a few years ago, and since then dozens of people have asked me about them for a reference. Needless to say, they never get a good one from me, and have likely lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in projects because of this. Not worth it in the long-run to cut corners.
Back to the topic at hand....
You really hit the nail on the head in so many ways. It really all does come down to one thing: hard work. There are no shortcuts. Always keep learning. Embrace every Eloqua challenge you can, and never say never. Never be fearful of being wrong by asking something 'silly', or 'looking stupid'. I remember several times that I've submitted Eloqua support tickets, or tickets to other related vendors about things that I was convinced were bugs/major issues. Turned out to be my mistake. But that's ok. You brush off, stand back up, and learn from them.
And finally, be modest. You will never know everything about Eloqua. Be willing to learn from others, and know that there actually may be a better way to do something than you may have spent days or weeks working on.
