HT1848 where is the 'authorise computer' in itunes?

Hi folks
When I charge my iphone through my imac, I get the message that there is an upgraded OS which I should download.
But when I say yes to that, the message is that I should transfer purchases from my phone to itunes.
The process for this is supposed to be:
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose Authorize Computer.
In the dialog that appears, the Apple ID button is selected by default.
Enter your Apple ID and password, then click the Authorize button.
But I can't find the 'authorise computer' command in itunes.
Can anybody help?
Thanks
Pete

In iTunes on your computer when you click on the store menu item you don't see it,

  • Where is the authorise computer in Itunes Store menu?

    Hi ... can anyone advise where on Itunes Store is the menu showing authorise computer.  Am currently trying to sync my iphone 3GS to a new PC.........

    I tried all of these without success then had a stroke of luck. I only downloaded itunes today and could not find the "store" menu item. I finally found a tiny icon in the very top left of the itunes screen (looks like a page of paper with the left half black and right half white) and a tiny triangle beside it. When I clicked on it, it gave a drop down menu. One item was "show menu bar". When I clicked this it opened a menu bar that had the "store" as an option and voila!!! there was "authorise this computer" as an option. Easy once you know how!!!!

  • HT1848 where is the Authorize Computer button at?

    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.

  • HT1420 where is the authorise computer button on the store page?

    I have looked for it yet there is no evidence of it there. Does it even exist?

    By the bar, do you mean the vertical one on the left or the horizontal black one on the store page? left/right clicking on the vertical bar does not do anything, and the horizontal one has not got store on it.

  • HT1420 Where is the store menu in iTunes.  I just got a new computer.  I disconnected the old computer and want to authorize the new one.  There is no file menu or store menu anywhere I can see.

    Where is the store menu in iTunes?  I updated my computer and want to authorize it.  I deauthorized the old computer (and probably my desktop at a different location, and want to authorize the new one.  The help says that I need to clickon the store menu in iTunes.  I do not see any store menu.  I can access songs that I purchased a while back, but cannot download any new purchases.  If I cannot get this worked out, how do I recoup my money for the new songs?  Also, can I transfer the songs I purchased to another service?  Brad

    It's in the same spot on a Windows machine as well

    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.

  • HT1657 Where are the rented movies on iTunes located....I see it on my phone, but can not locate the movie on any other computer.  Thank you!

    Where are the rented movies on itunes located?  I see them on my iphone, but I am unable to locate them in my itunes, even via searching the name.  Thank you!

    You cannot.
    from the article you linked:
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer."

  • I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

    I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

    The computer (windows platform) where I initially began using Itunes has four other computers/devices that are shared with it. All four of the other computers show up in my account, and can be managed. Or I can remove them. But on the new computer that I want to be my base computer (home if you will). The computer I want it to replace, when ITunes is open, has a tool bar, with various functions. All of the other devices are linked to that computer in ITunes, under Home SHaring. The new computer, shows the downloads via Home Sharing, but it does not show/have any tool bar.
    I want to activate the new computer to be the computer via ITunes where all of the devices are linked to it as the base for ITunes. And, I don't know how to make that happen.
    I hope that makes sense.

  • Where is the File sharing in Itunes window

    Where is the File sharing in Itunes window?

    Normally set in iTunes->Preferences->Sharing. However, with the paucity of details, such as computer, OS,  iTunes version, and what you're trying to do, just a WAG.

  • Where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar

    where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar, I am trying to remove photos from my ipad by restricting them from appearing after synch.

    I was struggling with this too - but seem to have found the issue.  It appears the photo synch option in iTunes isn't available unless the photos are out of synch.
    This is incorrect.
    The Photos tab is always available when you have your iDevice connected.
    First open iPhoto, move the photos you want to get rid of to the trash, then close iPhoto.
    No one seems to want to delete the photos from iPhoto/computer.
    They just don’t want them to sync to the iPad.

  • Can two people with their own iPhones use the same computer and iTunes?

    Can two people with their own iPhones use the same computer and iTunes?

    Yes. My wife and I each have our own Apple ID and used the same computer to sync our phones with iTunes. The best way to do this is set up separate user accounts on the computer. If you are logged in to your account on the computer and your wife wants to sync here phone, you would log out and she would log in. These keeps all your stuff separate and avoids a ton of confusion.
