HT5622 I cannot find "authorize computer" in the ITunes Store menu as directed

How do I "authorize computer" on Windows 8 so I can use my Itunes?

Authorization
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.

  • HT1420 I can't find the "authorized this computer" on the iTunes store menu.  Can anyone tell me where to look for it?  It doesn't seem to be in the topics across the top of the home  page.  Thanks.

    I am trying to authorize a computer. But I can't locate the"authorized this computer" on the iTunes store menu.  I can't find it under any topics across the menu bar at the top of the page.  Can anyone help me find  it? Thanks.

    It should be on the Store drop-down menu at the top of iTunes (if you are using iTunes 11 on a PC then try pressing Alt-S and see if it appears) e.g. (screenshot is from iTunes on a Mac)

    It is not actually in the iTunes Store, it is in the Store menu of iTunes.
    To authorize, go to the Store menu item on the iTunes menu bar, and choose "Authorize This Computer..." as shown below. 
    If by any chance you don't see the menu bar ("File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help"), first enable it by using CTRL+B.

  • Can't find authorize computer option in itunes store?

    Trying to add my laptop as an authorized computer but i can't find the authorize computer option in the iTunes store nor the advanced menu.  Tried to edit in account profile but that is the only setting in the account profile it won't allow me to edit.  Any suggestions or am I just simply overlooking something?

    Nevermind, i was overlooking the store option at the top of itunes menu bar not the itunes store

  • HT1420 I Cannot find the "authorize this computer" on my iTunes store menu

    I cannot find the 'authorize this computer' option in the itunes store menu.....

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iTunes 11 for Windows has the menu bar hidden. To show it, hold the Alt key and choose the Store menu (on the menu bar) > Authorize this Computer

  • I am getting the error "We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time. Please try again later." on both my iPhone and iTunes on my computer. What is wrong with iTunes? Is the server down???

    I am getting the error "We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time. Please try again later." on both my iPhone and iTunes on my computer. What is wrong with iTunes? Is the server down or what? I need to download some things and update some apps...

    I've been getting the same message for like an hour now.  Since everything was working fine a few hours ago, and nothing changed on my end before it stopped working, I'm guessing it's something on Apple's end.  They probably already know about it by now, and are hopefully working on fixing it, so there's probably not much we can do but wait for them to fix it.

  • Keep gettting "We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes Store at this time."

    I keep getting this message when I try to buy or check anything on iTunes "We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes Store at this time." I have checked for software updates, re-started the computer...at a loss.

    Me too...just bought my 1st mac & using itunes and I think its my fault.. silly me. Maybe just sit it out and try again in a few hrs.

  • HT1420 no authorize computer option in itunes store

    i do not see the option to "authorize my computer" in the itunes store home page.  I think it could be my constant guard software hiding something, but I'm not sure.  Any ideas?

  • We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time.

    "We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time." http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/7452/screenshot20110601at608.png <- what gives? One moment I'm downloading an iTunes movie rental and a bunch of music, the next second every completed download, attempted new purcase, and trying to start playing the partially downloaded movie resulted in this error.
    I paused the downloads and restarted iTunes. Downloads and Rentals were gone in the sidebar and every single secure request to the iTunes store (trying to login, trying to check for available downloads, trying to buy anything else) results in this error. However the music that had sucessfully downloaded was present in my iTunes library. However nothing new shows in my 'Recently Added' playlist... weird.
    I then tried restarting my router, ADSL modem, and my Mac. No good. I tried a different OSX user account. No good. I tried logging into the UK store (I'm usually in the NZ one) where I also have an account - no good, same error.
    iTunes store pages load, but anything secure results in this error :-(
    What has happened? One second all is well, the next all secure iTunes connections result in "We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time."

    I always try to download movies and TV shows in advance, although this is the first time in quite a while that I've had problems with it on Apple's end -- normally I'm just worried about my internet flaking out, which was happening pretty regularly for a while, or just slowing down way too much and taking hours to download anything.  It's a good approach when you can manage it as it eliminates the risk of this sort of thing messing up your whole night.  If you still have enough movie night left tonight though, you could try renting something from Amazon.  It's streaming rather than download, so it's vulnerable to inconsistencies in internet speed, and it tends not to be as good quality as iTunes video (at least in my experience), but at least you might still be able to get a movie in tonight.

  • I keep gettign an error that says: We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the itunes store at this time. Please try again later. Is this a common error? is there a fix?

    When I try to access itunes, I get this error: We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the itunes store at this time. Please try again later. Is this a common error? Is there a fix?

    Sorry, I don't have any suggestions at this time. You can try running the Network Diagnostics in iTunes:

    and post the results here. That may provide some clues that someone can use to diagnose the problem and offer suggestions.

  • I'm trying to find a song in the iTunes Store which I know should be there and it finds nothing.  What is wrong?

    How do you search and find a song in the iTunes Store?  I can no longer do that.

    Hi FirstTenor,
    Have you tested with a different songs?
    How to browse and buy content from the iTunes Store
    Searching for Content
    If you know what you're looking for, you can type a search term in the Search Store field, which appears in the upper-right corner of iTunes. Press Enter or Return to search.
    You will see the results for your search. You can filter your search results by TV Shows, Albums, Songs, iPhone Apps, iPad Apps, Movies, Books, Audiobooks, Music Videos, Podcasts, and iTunes U content.
    I just tested the search and it worked here.
    Best regards,
    Nubz
