Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 75 days." WHAT??
I've never had problems before - my husband and I have used the same library for years. My daughter also has her own Apple ID... are we going to have trouble with that, too? Actually we have 4 Apple IDs - somewhere around 8 Apple devices... this is a huge issue for us... HELP

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

How do i fix this error msg? This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days.

For some reason, "Support" email can't be process this topic (??)...
I purchased a TV series, but i have not been able to download the last two episodes because i keep getting the error message typed into discussion topic.
This is the only computer i have ever logged into for iTunes. I purchases the TV series with my account on my computer, the same i've been using for year. Never previously had a problem. My daughter used my computer to redeem some iTunes vouchers on xmas day, but she logged out when finished. It's been since then, though, that i have been unable to download my tv show.
Any help would be much appreciated. I am scared to buy anything else in case i can't download it.
Have tried logging in and out, my daughter has also logged in and out again, just in case it didn't recognise it before.

This is a somewhat recent change, but frankly there is no reason to constantly be logging out of one Apple ID and logging in with a different Apple ID.
If multiple people with different Apple ID's are regularly using the same computer, either authorize the computer for each of the Apple IDs or created unique logins on the computer for each user and have each sign in with their appropriate Apple ID.

Can't play my library: "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID...you can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days." Got a fix?

Since my daughter burned a CD from my computer using our shared libraries I cannot play my library. This pops up: "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 88 days." I can get as far as viewing my library but listening is denied by this pop-up. Can anyone help, please? I just noticed my (this) computer is not showing as registered to my account. Hmmm....a clue perhaps?

Do you have a question?

This computer is already associated with an Apple ID (when trying to download family purchases)

On my iMac I have five user accounts: 1 master family, father (me), wife, daughter and son. For iTunes, the family is used for family sharing and as is the organizer for family purchases.
My son's iCloud account is maintain through the Family account as he is under 13. I recently set up his user on the family computer and today started to build up his iTunes library so he can sync his iPod. iTunes was not logged into his iCloud account and had no music (it had not been used before). I entered his iCloud account and annoyingly it would not recognize the password I had recorded for him so I had to go through iForgot, Once in I went to family purchases to download a song that I had just purchased on the family account. It stated that this computer was not authorized to I authorized it using my son's iCloud account. When I went to download it stated:
This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 72 days.
What? It's a new set up....
I deauthorized the computer and reauthorized it using the family account, as the computer is registered to the family account. Why I tried to download again I did not get the error about but this time it said the computer was not authorized (even though I just did it). I appear to be stuck in a cycle of Apple ID association or authorization denial. I'm a little PO'd.
In the end I did it the old fashioned way and simply dragged in the music using family sharing (as this is switched on).
Beyond having to wait 72 days for the Apple ID to resolve itself is there any other options? Can I delete the entire user account of the computer and try again? I'd be willing to do that if I thought it would work...

My TV shows won't download. It keeps saying error 3050 and this computer is already associated with an Apple ID. I really don't want to spend eight dollars on two episodes again. What do I do to fix this dilemma?

A couple oe f days ago, I started downloading the BBC's version of Sherlock. I have the entire first season completely downloaded. The second season (and unaired pilot) is a different story. It was downloading, but my internet kept crashing so I couldn't finish the downloading process. I shut down iTunes for the night and thought to myself "I finish it in the morning." This morning, I attempted to finish the downloading process, but it would only let me download two of the four episodes. The other two just say "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID after 90 days." I used one account to download the TV shows and nothing else.
I'm really confused and really frustrated with this. Any suggestions/answers are welcomed and greatly appreciated!

Pre purchase download ... won't. States "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.

I prepurchased a movie in iTunes and after waiting several months got an email indicating that I could now download and enjoy the movie. So I was able to download the iTunes extras, but as for the movie itself, I am getting an annoying message stating "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. this computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 33 days."
Huh? What ID other than my own does it think is associated with this purchase, and where is the setting for this "association" found. This is pretty infuriating after the wait!
Appreciate the help!

Can't download iCloud content - this computer is already associated with an Apple ID

Hi there,
I purchased the movie Dredd from the iTunes store today, using my Apple ID on my MacBook Air, and it downloaded to that machine fine.
When I then go to "Purchased" on the iTunes store using a different computer (my older MacBook Pro), and try and download the movie from iCloud,
I get a baffling and really unhelpful error, as follows:
"This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 87 days."
What on earth does this mean? And why am I even seeing it?
I am logged in to iTunes on both machine using the same Apple ID. Things I've tried (to no avail):
1. Quitting and re-starting iTunes on both machines.
2. Signing out and then signing backin on both instances of iTunes
3. Deathorising all my machines and single re-authorising them
I am really ****** off about this. Isn't the whole point of iCould that your content is available on all your devices? So why - for the first time ever - do I get this pointless, unhelpful, baffling error?
Any insights gratefully received...

Hey, thanks for the suggestion.
Sadly, I'm actually using iTunes 11 (and apologies, should have specified that). Additional info: the MacBook Air is a couple of years old, the MacBook Pro probably about 3 years old. Both are running OS X 10.8.2
I understand the whole "Not all previously purchased movies are available for downloading to your other devices" thing, or at least, the rationale for it.
So I just checked if I could download the problematic movie in question, Dredd, to my iPad (to which I am also of course signed in using my Apple ID). That download is going smoothly, as is - just because I wanted to check - the download to my iPhone too.
So this weird issue seems specific to the iTunes instance running on my MacBook Pro...

When i try to watch one of my movies in the cloud it says "this computer is already associated with an apple ID.You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID"

my mom used my computer to sign into her itunes account and then i logged back into mine and tried to watch one of my movies and it said "this computer is already associated with an apple ID.You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 68 days" What do i do?

You do what it says.

Is there a way to get around the pop up, "this device is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This device can be used with another Apple ID in 13 days."Someonehelp please

What exactly are you trying to do?

I purchased a television series and halfway through downloading, it stopped and iTunes told me that my computer is already associated with an apple ID, but I bought the show using my apple ID, the same one I'm using to try to download. Help?

Okay, so I purchased the first season of American Horror Story, and began to download the season from the cloud. It started great, and I managed to download the first seven episodes, before having a message box pop up and say that my cloud session has been expired. Now, every time I click the little cloud button on the TV cover, or beside the episode titles, iTunes tells me "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID." But I bought the season using my own Apple ID, and it's telling me that my computer can use a Apple ID within 77 days. But I don't want to use another Apple ID, I want to use my own. I have no idea why this is happening and I would like to download and watch the items I have bought with my own money. Thank you for your help.

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

How can i download purchases when 'this computer is already associated with an apple iD'

This has happened many times when using iTunes.
My iTunes is authorised with this computer, and i can make purchases off the iMac I'm using and
have the music be in my iTunes library.
BUT, I also have an iPad, and I've downloaded a few songs off iTunes on my iPad, and I'm having trouble
re-downloading them to my Mac.
I went into my user>purchases>download all
but it came up with a notice saying:
'This computer is already associated with an apple ID,
You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days.
You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 64 days.'
Please help? Ive seen this notice before, and I think i just hit 'Okay' but I can't download my songs to my mac now.
Thanks a lot xx
-Olivia M
