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

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.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I had bookmarks on an older computer. When I got my new one my husband took over the old one and deleted firefox before I had a chance to get my bookmarks. Is there anyway to find all those bookmarks I had?

What version of Premiere Elements is still installed activated on the old computer (what is your old operating system)?
What version of Premiere Elements are you going to install and activate on your new computer (what is your new operating system)?
Before you do anything, how many of your computers now have the same Premiere Elements purchased/activated serial number installed on them - just that one old one?

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.

I was wondering how I can authorize my new computer to play the music I have purchased on Itunes? MY old computer is completely broken and won't turn on so when I downloaded iTUNES on my new computer it won't let me play the other songs I bought through my old computer. Thank you so much for your help in advance!

Restore the songs from a backup, or use these instructions to redownload them through the iCloud if doing so is free in your country.

If you mean your content then have you copied it onto your new computer from your backup and added it to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ? If you haven't got a backup then if you have any of your purchases on your iPod then you should be able to copy them to your new computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, or you might be able to re-download some/all of your previous purchases (what content types you can re-download depend upon which country that you are in and whether it's still in the store) : re-downloading.
