HT1727 how do i authorise a new computer

How do i authorise a new computer. i am trying to transfer songs for my kids

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:

    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.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "authorize to your iPod". What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Do you mean you wish to sync your iPod to a new computer? If so, check out this user tip from TuringTest:

  • I have a new computer, I have itunes library on an external drive.  How do I configure my new computer?

    I have a new Windows 7 computer.   On my old XP, I had my iTunes on an external hard drive that I still want to use, but now I need to figure out how to set up my new computer to do this.   Do I do a fresh install of ITunes first, on my new computer?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  I am so glad that I recently synched my ipod.

    How did you migrate to external drive originally?
    Was your original iTunes setup set to keep all files in the same location, i.e. consolidated on your external drive?
    Did you actually move your iTunes library out to the external drive, or did you only changed the location of the music files, and then reimported them into iTunes?
    Sounds like you simply moved your files out to the external drive and reimported, but the library itself was still pointing to your internal hard drive. Which means anything you added after the migration was kept in the internal iTunes library folder rather than in your external drive.
    If you still have the old XP computer around you amy be able to salvage what you imported afterwards from there.
    Otherwise, you basically have only the part of the library you moved out.
    To have correctly moved your library you needed to have moved a folder named iTunes from the Music folder in XP.  That would contain all your iTunes library information including music, videos apps etc...
