HT1420 How do I authorize a computer that I received from my employer to download a song that I have on other Apple devices?

I need to make an iMovie but when I went to download the song that I have to go with it my iTunes says that this computer isnt authorized to download any of my past purchases. When I went to authorize this in my Advanced tab it said that it needed to be deauthorized but I don't know the username or password it was authorized under. Is there any way around this so I can finish this iMovie for my employer?

You can authorize the computer to your iTunes Store acount via the Store menu in iTunes. You'll find the "Authorize This Computer" command there.
Note, however, that tracks from the iTunes Store are licensed for your personal use only. You cannot use them in any commercial setting, which prohibits them from being used in a movie for your company. For such use you would have to purchase the CD on which the track was issued and then obtain an appropriate commercial-use license from the record company that owns the rights to the track, or whatever rights clearing house the record company uses.
Regards.

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.

TS3297 When I purchase a whole album why am I unable to play some of the songs? I get a prompt telling me to authorize my computer which I have already done.

Why do I keep getting prompted to authorize some songs when I have purchased a whole album? For example I purchased Return to Cookie Mountain and can only play 5 of the 12 songs. When I try to play the other 7 songs I get a prompt to authorize the computer which I have already done.

When I try to play the other 7 songs I get a prompt to authorize the computer
If only some of tracks from the album are prompting you to do that, that suggests that the tracks are damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

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.)

HT1420 how do i authorize my computer

Where do i find the authorize part?

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".

How do I deauthorize a computer that has crashed and can't be restarted?

You don't, nor do you need to.
When you reach the limit of 5 then you can deauthorize all.

HT1420 How do I authorize my computer? there is no "authorize this computer" option anywhere

I want to download my purchases from the cloud, but it will not let me until I authorize my computer, which I can't figure out how to do.

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.

HT1420 how do i Deauthorize a computer that has had the hard drive lock up and can not get it working

how do i deauthorize a computer that has had the hard drive lock up and can not get it working

You can only deauthorise individual computers directly on them. Otherwise if you've reached the 5 computer limit, then you should be able to log into your iTunes account and 'deauthorise all' (which you can only do once every 12 months) and you can then (re-)authorise up to 5 computers : authorising and deauthorising.

I no longer have any of the five computers that my account is authorized on. What can I do to deauthorize those computers so that I can authorize the computer that I have now?

I am trying to download music on to my account for the first time in awhile but I need to authorize my computer first. I have already authorized five computers which is the limit. I neither have nor remember the computers that I have authorized so what can I do to deauthorize them so I can use my account fully?

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.

How to de-authorize a computer you dont have anymore.

I had my itunes account on another computer and it broke before i could de-authorize it and now i cant sync my phone to another computer and downlaod my music. So i cant back-up my phone. Have any ideas on how to back up all of my music and apps on my new laptop?

These are two questions: the first is how to deauthorize your old computer:
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 "Deauthorize All".
5. 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.
The next question concerns syncing your iPhone to a new computer. The right way to recover from this situation is to copy your iTunes Library from the old one's backup. The iPhone is not a backup device, and how you back up your computer is up to you.
If you have no backup, you will need to use third party utilities to recover your iPhone's contents. The iPhone is not designed to be used this way so success is not guaranteed.

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.
