Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you have iTunes 11, the menu bar is hidden. To show it, hold the Alt key, and then, choose the Store menu (on the menu bar) > Authorize this Computer.
You can also find the iTunes Store menu by pressing the button at the top left corner of the iTunes window

    where is the Authorize Computer button in the itunes store?

    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.

    The screen shows problems with iCloud only choices are ignore or settings, however nothing I do will unlock it from this screen, cannot power off keeps that bubble on the screen. What do I do?

    Try this now.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • I am so confused. I am thinking about buying an iPhone 4S but I want to use those card things that you can put the code in for the phone is this possible? I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts...

    As far as I know there is no US cell carrier that allows pay as you go with an iPhone. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone 4S at an Apple Store and try it with a non-supported carrier.

    I am trying to authorize my PC for Itunes,  I have read the help stuff, but I can not find the Button

    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.

    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.

  • HT1420 how do i authorize computer after deauthorizing in itunes

    how do i authorize computer after deauthorizing in itunes

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • I have itunes folder on Sony Vaio that has died. It has home sharing enabled.I need to transfer the library onto this new computer.I have i cloud but want the muin folder transferred to this computer. I have part of my i tunes folder on 2 back up drives.

    I have itunes folder on Sony Vaio that is seriously unwell. I can start up in safe mode but that's all.  It has home sharing enabled.I need to transfer the library onto this new computer before it completely gives up the ghost.I have i cloud but want the main folder transferred to this computer. I have part of my i tunes folder on 2 back up drives.
    Can anyone help please

    If the computer only starts in safte mode, it is highly unlikely that network functionality works.
    Copy or move the ENTIRE iTunes folder (and any other personal data you want) to an external drive.

  • Now that I have backed up, can I delete items from my desktop? One of the reasons I got the time capsule was so that I could free up some space on my computer. I am confused about whether the backup will one day remove my photos/video

    I purchased a 2TB time capsule yesterday. I set it up as a router and did the backup no problem. I then navigated the backup folder and found that all my photos/video that I am nervous about losing are on there. So far so good.
    Taking a step back, the reason I bought the time capsule was 1.) I needed a router 2.) I have a mac and 3.) I am running out of disk space on that mac (I shoot and cut a lot of video and have years of high quality pictures on my mac hard drive)
    Can I now delete them from my mac computer to free space? I have used standard external disk drives in the past, but the whole "Back Up" piece of things has me confused. I love the idea of backing up my computer so I want to keep that functionality, but will the drive still function as a static external hard drive? Or do I need to move that material in seperately as a folder outside of the backup folder?
    I am nervous that if the backup overwrites information as the disk space becomes limited that in 10 years when I fill this drive up, that I will lose all of my photos that are part of the backups that I am running now.....
    Or worse, I am nervous that if I remove things from my mac right now, that the next time that a back up is performed that it will lose this data as it is not currently on the device I am backing up? How does this work?
    I apologize, the back up is a very new concept to me and I want to make sure I do not goof anything up.

    That's an entirely different thing from backups.  A backup is an extra copy, in case the original is lost or damaged.   Additional space is just that -- more space for originals.
    While it's possible to use the same disk (such as the TC's internal HD) for both things, it's dangerous -- when (not if) something happens to the TC, you risk losing the originals that are on it.   To be safe, you need (at least) two copies of everything important, in (at least) two different places.  
    Many (including me) recommend at least three copies (originals plus 2 backups).  While it's not common for the Mac's hard drive to fail about the same time as the backup drive, it does happen.  There are several threads here where it did, and very expensive data recovery was needed, but in some cases everything was lost.
    So as the others recommend, getting an external HD for the stuff there isn't room for on your Mac is one solution for not having enough space.  But you might explore getting a larger internal HD.   If possible, that might be bettter.
    Then, also get another external, for "secondary" backups, so you're doubly protected.  If you get a portable model, you can take it offsite for even better protection.  See #27 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions for details and some suggestions.

    You're not the first or only one. 
    There are different types of backup apps, so there are different answers for the different types.
    As the others have posted, Time Machine will, sooner or later, delete it's backup copies of things that are no longer on your system.  Depending on how long the original was there and when backups were run, that can be in as little as 24 hours, or as long as there's room.   So no, don't take the chance with data that's important!
    Is there helpful information on how to add an external drive to your backup set up?
    See the green box in #2 of the FAQ article.  All you have to do is format it for a Mac and remove it from the exclusion list.
               Once I set it up, will I need to leave the hard drive plugged into my mac in order for the data to be backed up?
    It can only be backed-up while it's connected.
               If I do, and a back up is performed without the hard drive attached to my computer, will it remove the backup of  what was on the hard drive
    No (unless you leave it disconnected until Time Machine starts deleting old backups).
    It will back up the external when it's connected, and not complain if it isn't.

  • From my email, how do I save a file to a specific folder on my computer. It keeps saving it in the downloads within Firefox.

    I have a quickbooks back-up file from my CPA in my email which I need to save to a folder in mydocuments which Quickbooks can then open. Firefox saves it to a downloads folder and I never get the option to save it somewhere else on my computer. I can't figure out where the downloads file is on the computer.

    {Ctrl + J} to open the Downloads window, right-click any of the files in there and select '''Open Containing Folder''' to open the folder that each of your downloaded files was placed in.
    Tools > Options > General - under the Downloads section, you can check-mark '''"Always ask me where to save files"''' to get a dialog box from Windows Explorer file management for saving files manually.
    The ''"Save files to"'' box shows the folder that Firefox uses to download file into when that other pref isn't selected.
    You can also use '''"Save Link As..."''' if you right-click a hyperlink that you want to download (won't work where JavaScript is used to download files).

  • I have lost most of my i tunes library.  Many of the lost songs are are my ipod.  What happens if I load plug my ipod into the computer?  Will I erase whats on the ipod because there'll be no match found on my itunes library.  Or..will I be allowed to mov

    I have lost my i tunes library.  Many of my lost songs are on my two nano i pods.
    Since I have lost my i tunes library I have re-installed most songs.  However I have a large number of songs on my i pods which I would like to retrieve.  If I try to load my i pods to my computer will I lose the songs which I could not get re-installed to my library but are on the i pods.  Since I lost my library I have not re-introduced my i pods for updating since they too will likely have to be re-installed.  Will I lose the songs already in the i pods if have to re-introduce them to my computer.  A solution to this problem would be for me to transfer my lost library songs from the i pod to my library.  Can this be done?
    1)  Is it possible to retrieve songs from a lost i tunes library?  Withoutout re-loading the entire library (since I have done this manually).
    2)  What happens if I re-introduce my i pods to the computer?  Will this cause me to lose the present i pod installed music?
    3)  Can I transfer my lost songs and albums from my i pods to the i tunes library?

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    As you will have discovered, the music sync is only one way, from iTunes to the iPod, minus iTunes purchases.  On top of that, an iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time.

    What is this user agreement email that people are talking about prior to shipment of 4s?

    I would say the left is too blue on the cool side where the iPhone 4 is more neutral, putting it beside that blue screen makes it possibly look yellow, try comparing to something white.
