HT1923 How do I remove iTunes from Windows 8 computer

How do I completely remove iTunes from a Windows 8 computer

Hello mjons79,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
To deauthorize a computer
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose Deauthorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Deauthorize.
Remember to deauthorize your computer before you sell it, give it away, or get your computer serviced. Also, make sure you deauthorize your computer before you upgrade your RAM, hard disk or other system components, or reinstall Windows. If you do not deauthorize your computer before you upgrade these components, one computer may use multiple authorizations.
Best of luck,
Mario

  • How do I transfer iTunes from one computer to another?

    How do I transfer iTunes from one computer to another?

    This really depends on how technical you want to get, and how much of the library data you want to retain. First, there is getting the actual song files over to your new computer. If both computers are on the same network and are on iTunes 9, you can use home sharing to transfer the song files to your new computer.
    Once the files are transferred, now you have to get all of the metadata transferred, like Playlists and Song Ratings. There is a method for doing this that involves editing your Library.xml file to transfer Playlists, Playcounts, etc..
    If all you want to transfer is your Playlists and song files, there are programs that will back up your playlists so you can transfer them to a new computer, but if you're able to do the above XML edits (which are pretty simple), that is preferred (and cheaper).
    I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

  • Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

    Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

    iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
    If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu.

  • When i go to sycn my ipod, it says that it cannot sync due to a missing file. Is there a way to remove itunes from my computer and redownload it without losing all of my stuff?

    Can I remove Itunes from my computer totallty abnd reinstall it without losing my media?

    Do a backup of your iTunes library files first to a external hardisk. (ie all your music files)
    Go to this Apple download for iTunes 9.2.1,
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
    You just need to download and re-install.
    If your iTunes is earlier than 9 series, the library folder location need to be changed.
    or let me know your iTunes version and I sent you the website
    I wouldn't recommend the Latest iTunes 10.5.2, if you are not using iPod Classic 160GB late 2009 version.

  • How can I remove malware from my computer?

    I can't go to google mail page. I can't search words with any browser because nothing happen. I think it is malware. I tried spy bot-SD. But no result. Please tel me how can remove malware from my computer.

    Try running malwarebytes, if that doesn't work.
    Simply restore your system to the checkpoint before this happened. It's easy, On Windows 7, I just had to do it to get rid of the rogue program 'Antimalware Doctor'. Go to Start > ALL Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore click next and select the restore point prior to the time the infection occurred. Mine took only 5-7 minutes to run.
    If you don't have Windows 7, you still can get to the System Restore by finding the location of your Accessories, normally System Restore is under this.

  • How do I move ITunes from one computer to another

    I am trying to move my ITunes from one computer to another. I downloaded ITunes on my new computer and loged in with my account information. Then I pluged my IPod into the comuter and imported all my songs. I thought that everything would come over but none of my apps did. I want to synce my IPod up with my new computer how do I do it?

    Backup everything to an external hard drive with this User Tip.
    Use the same process to clone the library into a new empty iTunes folder on the new computer.
    Deauthorise the old box if you don't need to access protected content on it any more.
    Use SyncToy from time to time, and in particular before every iTunes update, to keep the backup up-to-date.

  • HT4527 how do I transfer itunes from old computer to a new computer

    how do I transfer itunes from an old computer to a new computer

    Unless you've moved away from the default iTunes settings simply copying the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the source machine into <User's Music> on the target computer (over a network, or via an intermediate copy on a portable drive) will transfer the library.
    See this migrate iTunes library post for more.
    This gives you the same library, not a new library with the same content.
