HT5100 I accidentally deauthorized all my computers for my iTunes acct. How do I add the computer back on, plus authorize a new computer?
I need to re-activate my existing computer + add a new one to my iTunes account. The "store" does not give me any options to do that. How do I re-authorize my computer from my acct or the store?
Just re-authorize each computer you still have by selecting the option from iTunes' Store menu.
Also, see iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

I have an IPhone 4S. All my color pictures and icons turned to looking like a negative. No color! How do I get the color back on my phone?
Hi ladwwd56,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Is it possible that you may have an Accessibility feature called "White on Black" turned on?
See page 244 of the iPhone User Guide PDF:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1539/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.p df
White on Black
Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone screen, which may make it easier to read the screen. When White on Black is turned on, the screen looks like a photographic negative.
Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the “White on Black” switch.
If that is not the case, try restarting / resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
iPhone User Guide for iOS 7

So, I gave my macbook to apple for a system repair, due to a short circuit in my laptop, but all my previous settings and data have all been deleted. I recently just got this computer this september, so I have not purchased an external hard drive to back up my data, but I wanted to know if there is any way to restore all the lost data?
It is extremely likely that Apple had to restore everything to the way it was originally when you purchased the Mac in order to repair.
Since you decided not to purchase the external drive for the backup, all of your data is now lost.
Maybe now that you have lost all your data, you might reconsider the necessity to backup in the future to prevent this from happening again. -
I upgraded to the new iso and all was fine last night. Over night, I guess my phone must have been backed up to the cloud and when I got up this morning, everything but three months was missing!
I did a manual sync before I updated to my computer will it still be there? How would I recover it?
Thank you for any help you can give me...I have EXACTLY the same issue. I would appreciate the response also. Was not prepared for this.

My pc had crashed several months ago. I got it back up and running, however my itunes library with all the songs I purchased is gone. I still have all songs on my ipod. If I purchase new music from itunes and have it synced to my ipod will I lose all the music on my ipod? Also is there a way that itunes can reinstall my music to my library?

I;m licked out of my new IMAC, My intaller is out of town. I have an apple ID for my cell, but that doesn't work. can I go on guest user and reintall or change?
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
*Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions. -

I've just deauthorized all 4 computers as wanting to authorize this newly purchased second hand laptop......I am not being given the option to authorize this laptop, help please
Did you try what I suggested?

I deauthorized all my computers, but now it will not allow me to authorize my new computer. My account states that I have 0 authorized machines.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't (only) de-authorise computers you no longer have access to.
Your only option is to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise those you wish to be authorised. You can do this by logging into your account settings in iTunes on your computer (Store > View My ID) and selecting the option to de-authorise all.
Please note however, you are only permitted to do this once in each 12 month period, therefore you would be better de-authorising your computers before you lose access to them. you can do this from the 'Store' menu in iTunes. -
My MacBook Pro HD crashed. It is all up and runmning except for one issue. I have about 200 songs on my iPhone but have only gotton 53 back on my laptop from my iPhone and those are the songs I purchased via iTunes. How do I get the rest of the songs from my iPhone back onto my HD.
The songs I'm not able to import casme from CD's. Nothing from napster etc.
I've tried and tried to import them rom iTunes vis "Library" " Import"Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine. How do I get the network back? It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.
See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You could also try a reset as well.
Reset 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 used 3 old computers for my itunes account previously, that i have no access to de-authorize now..
can this still be done with my existing computer, and does it de-authorize the current one, so that i would have to re-load it????
the original 3 computers are long gone, in-active....Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but as you have more than one computer authorised then you can log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need. Deauthorising a computer doesn't remove any content from it, it just means that you won't be able to use any of the account's downloads on it until you reauthorise it.

Yes. For future iTunes questions it's probably best to post them in the iTunes forum.
