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.
More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
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.
As for transferring your iTunes Library: iTunes- How to move the library to an EHD. Once you have done this take the external drive to your new computer and restore the iTunes data on the new computer.

How do I transfer my bookmarks from one computer to another? I have Firefox Home on my phone and I can get them there, but I want to have the same bookmarks on my home computer as I do on my work computer. If I have a user name then where do I sign into Firefox, it should be that easy but I can't seem to figure it out.
Hey susanneyes,
Sounds like you want to set up Firefox Sync. This will allow you to keep all of your instances of Firefox synchronized. Just follow the steps in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/what-firefox-sync?s=sync&r=0&as=s this article] and you'll be set.
Hopefully this helps! -

how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad? I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.
You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days. -
help! I recently upgraded my iphone to the latest IOS but my GPS seems to have a problem... I am unable to get directions from one point to another ... how do I solve this problem?
If using the built-in Maps app, directions are not available everywhere. Read here:

If that's your problem, download the Google Maps app. -
I have some photo's on an ipad 2 that were put on there through syncing on iTunes, I would like them to be placed on my new ipad. I understand that I can't use iCloud ? Just to point out u no longer own the desk top pc from where I synced the original photos. Hope this make sense!?
First import the photos to a computer's itunes, then sync them to the other device.

I need to switch my ipod from one library to another please help me!
i keep my itunes on my computer at my dads...i took my ipod home and switched the computer there to be the source for my ipod...and i accidentally deleted all of my songs off of it. i was wondering how i could put the songs from my dad's computer back onto my ipod. please help. it will be greatly appreciated.
Your iPod is set to update automatically. Take it back to the first computer and connect it, it will update and reload your songs. Once you have done that, change the update setting on your iPod to manual and you'll be able to use it on both computers:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Some additional info:
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences.
iTunes 6
Connect your iPod to your computer and when it appears in the Source list go to Edit>iTunes>Music Tab (iTunes>Preferences>Music tab on a Mac). Choose one of the following options
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.
iTunes 7
Connect your iPod to your computer and when it appears in the Source list click on it to show the preference tabs in the main pane. Choose one of the following options and click "Apply".
1) Sync Music - All songs and Playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method. You'll find this in the Music Tab.
2) Sync Music - Selected playlists. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer. You'll find this in the Music Tab.
3) Manually manage music and videos. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod. You'll find this in the Summary Tab.
Note: When changing from automatic to manual, check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting. -
HT1329 how do i transfer my music from iphone to mac book Please help
Iv been trying to put my music from my old iphone onto a macbook pro computer ! But im not to sure how to do it. Iv tried alot of things but it saves as a txt . Please help
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content fo the computer to which it is synced.
The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases -
Hello all, I hope you can help. How do I transfer some songs from one account to another?
Hello, My daughter and I share an Itunes account. She's getting older now and I'd like to transfer all my music to a new account. Is it possible and how? Thanks very much
You cannot.
Authorize her computer for your account and she can use the music. -
How do I transfer a color from one object to another without losing the gradient?
COLORING AN OBJECT AND SAVING THE GRADIENT
These are my notes.
x
Choose the EYEDROPPER tool.
x
Sample the color you want from an object in your image.
x
Double-click on the fill icon at the bottom of the tool panel.
This brings up the COLOR PICKER panel.
In that panel, you'll find the numeric value of the color you sampled.
I followed these instructions but when the COLOR PICKER panel came up, it didn't show the color it was suppose to show. The color I sampled with the eyedropper was a light blue with a gradient. I had a few different files up with the same image. One file brought up the color orange in the Color Picker panel. And another file brought up a total BLACK, with a numeric value of 0000! Can anyone tell me what's happening?My guess is the eyedropper tool is struggling. The best way and the one I use is to get color readings in Photoshop using its eyedropper tool. Write down the color percentages for each color you want from the image. Then, in Illustrator, I use the color palette to create new swatches using the percentage I wrote down from the actual image file. Those new swatches can be used ( or transferred to ) in the gradient palette. I have never used the eyedropper tool for getting color from anywhere in Illustrator. But, that's just me.

I am trying to transfer music files from one PC to another using homeshare and although I can view the music as a shared folder I cannot initiate the "import" process. I have iTunes 11.0.1.12 on both computers so the help screenshots do not help as such
Then stop trying to use HomeShare and use one of the other options listed in the document from which your question was posted.

i have a seagate 1tb hard drive and a 16gb memory stick, how do i transfer avi files from one to another as the click drag and drop wont work, please help?
Greetings,
What happens when you drag it?
Make sure the drive you are moving the files to has enough available space to receive the file:
Click on the movie file and go to File > Get Info and note the "size"
Check the drive to which you are moving the file to make sure it has enough available space: https://idisk.me.com/madisonfile-Public/web/finder-drive-available-space-and-for mat.html
Also note the format of the drive you are copying too. If it is not Mac OS Extended or FAT (not recommended unless you are taking it to a windows computer) then that may be the issue.
Hope that helps. -
