HT1420 I cannot locate the 'Authorize' Computer section.

In Account I have the option of Deauthorizing the computers already connected (4) however no choice of authorizing my new computer. I have moved my songs and currently they are playable but becuase they are in 'the cloud' not transferrable. When I try to download them, it says the computer isn't authorized but I signed into iTunes and have purchased songs. HELP.

If you're 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 you're 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.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
iTunes 11 for Windows has the menu bar hidden. To show it, hold the Alt key and choose the Store menu (on the menu bar) > Authorize this Computer

Hello, vizords.
Thank you for the question. You will need to enable the menu bar in iTunes 11 so you can access the store menu which will allow you to authorize the computer. Here are the steps on how to process this.

TS1389 I cannot locate the authorize this computer link or tab

I just purchased a new computer. I have deauthorized the use of all other computers I have had and am trying to authorize my new computer. It keeps telling me to click "authorize this computer" tab, but I can't find it. Please help.

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.

It is not actually in the iTunes Store, it is in the Store menu of iTunes.
To authorize, go to the Store menu item on the iTunes menu bar, and choose "Authorize This Computer..." as shown below.
If by any chance you don't see the menu bar ("File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help"), first enable it by using CTRL+B.

You are looking at the drop-down menus at the top of iTunes e.g. on a Mac :
If you are on iTunes 11 on Windows then press Alt-S and the Store menu should appear at the top.

Purchased Direct Access from iTunes. I cannot locate the download and I cannot download it a second time. Any ideas as to where the original download might reside?

Hi rogerfrommilwaukee,
Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
Previous purchases can be located in the Purchased section of either your iOS device or in iTunes on a computer. The purchases will be available to re-download as long as they are still available in the App Store and you are using the same Apple ID. Please use the attached article as a reference.

My iTunes account says that it cannot locate the original file for all of my songs. My iPhone still has all the music and is able to play the songs, if I sync and backup my iphone will the songs be replaced with the empty copies from my itunes library?

So basically I tried to back up my itunes library to my external hard drive and when I followed the instructions and then went to play a song it said Orginal file cannot be found. It said that for all of the songs. I'm not sure how to fix what I did, I already tried consolidating and all of that stuff and it didn't locate the files. I'm guessing that I somehow deleted the original songs along the way. I synced my iPhone without knowing what I did and surprisingly all of the music is still on my phone. So now that I've completely screwed up my iTunes account, I need to know how to get all my music back onto my iTunes account and have that library only on my external hard drive, not my computer. Everything looks fine on my iTunes besides the fact that it cannot locate the files but what I'm afraid of is me syncing and backing up my iPhone and then being left with no music because it syncs to the empty songs. How can I fix this? and if I can't fix my iTunes library is there anyway for me to still be able to backup my iphone and all the music on it, without erasing my music?

Well I'm not sure if I correctly backed up my itunes library because when trying to open itunes from that back up it keeps saying original file not found. Okay this is going to sound confusing but bear with me. I "backed up" my itunes, meaning I just dragged and dropped the iTunes folder into my external hardrive, and then I changed the destination on iTunes to open from my external hardrive. It was working fine when I did that, however I did that just on my own, I didn't know about consolidating the files or any of that so I hadn't done that before copying the folder to my external hard drive. I can't remember but I'm pretty sure I deleted the iTunes folder after I had copied it to my external hardrive. So I did that and it was working fine, I was able to open my itunes with my external hardrive. BUT yesterday I thought that I hadn't done it correctly because I didn't consolidate the files and all that, so I wanted to be more thorough and do that, I followed the steps to do that but when I did that I think it got all the files from my computer and not from my external hard drive so it basically didn't find anything on my computer because I had deleted them. And like an idiot, I replaced the iTunes folder on my external hard drive (the one I did correctly the first time), with the one I did wrong. So I believe I pretty much deleted all the music files from both my external hard drive and my computer. Please correct me if I'm wrong?
I believe getting all my music back on my itunes is a lost cause. BUT I still have all my songs and stuff on my iPhone. My question is, if I plug my phone into my computer and sync it, will it erase all my songs from my phone? A little more info, my iTunes still has the names and stuff of all my songs, they just can't be played because the files are missing, my iPhone doesn't need to erase and sync when I plug in my phone because it's already synced to my computer. What I'm afraid of is when I plug in my phone to backup and sync, will it erase my music because it can't find the files on my computer or external hard drive anymore? Or will it just leave the songs because they're already there (on my phone) and only sync the new songs that I've downloaded? I just need to know is my iTunes still going to be functional as far as me being able to backup my phone?
I have a lot of songs purchased from iTunes but a lot (like 60%) are from CDs that I no longer have. So re-downloading my music would only account for 40% of my library.

MAC OS:Word cannot locate the server application for AcroExch.Document.7.objects

In MAC OS,installed Adobe reader ,When I double click a pdf file in Word2011,it shows"Word cannot locate the server application for AcroExch.Document.7.objects".what can i do to fix it?

I found out through someone else. The "how to" find the place to add it was more challenging.
Instructions:
1. Take the Webarchive file and save it on your computer (anywhere is fine).
2. Open MacMail and go to preferences>signatures and create a signature with any name and filler text. Close Macmail.
3. Open your finder, go to the "Library" folder. If you cannot view your Library folder, open up "terminal" and simply paste in: chflags nohidden ~/Library/
(this will allow you to view your Library folder from now on)
4. In your library folder, go to Mail>Mail Data>signatures
5.Copy the name of the signature file that is already in the signatures folder. It should look something like "079ADD83-A19F-4597-BBFC-4F35858894DE" After copying that name, delete the file.
6. Go to the webarchive file you saved and rename it the name of the file you just deleted. Then paste that into the library>Mail>Mail Data>signatures folder.
7. Open your macmail and see if it worked!
If my directions are not clear, you may find the following article helpful from step 5: http://code.coneybeare.net/how-to-make-an-html-signature-in-apple-mail-f
Now here's how I managed to find my Library/Mail in OSX 10.7.3:
Menu: Go
Choose: Home
Library
Mail
Vs
Mail Data
Signatures
Hope this helps!
