I accidentally deauthorized my laptop from a second Apple ID. How do I reauthorize it?

When I looked up how to authorize my computer this is what the support page told me to do:
To authorize a computer using your Apple ID
Open iTunes
From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.
BUt I cant seem to find the Authorize this Computer tab. I need help.

Open itunes.
Look at the top of your computer screen fro the word "Store".
Click it.
Look for "Authorize" Click it

If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.

I was trying to uninstall a game on my iPad but I accidentally removed the game from the Game Center. How do I get it from icloud

Hello,
I was trying to uninstall my game on my iPad because it kept on crashing. I started the process, you know how they ask if you want to delete and I said yes and then they ask you if you want to keep it or remove it from the Game Center ( at the time, really wasn't understanding what it was asking) and I chose to remove it. But now, I can't open up the game now. I thick it went to iCloud, so how do you get it open so I can play it??????
Very much appreciated!

Try deleting the problematic app and then re-downloading the app from the app store.
You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option which is revealed by tapping the updates option at the bottom of the screen of the App store app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Accidentally deleted a book from ibooks on my desktop. how can i restore it?

is there any way to restore a deleted book bought on ibooks on my desktop. i can still see it on my ipad but not the desktop.

If you bought the book using iTunes, simply open the iTunes Store (in the iTunes application, there is no standalone iBooks app on Mac or Windows), click on 'Books' in the list of content areas, then click on 'Purchased' in the right hand column towards the bottom of the top section in the 'Books Quick Links'. You should then be able to see all the books you have purchased and redownload it by clicking the 'Download' button. You need to be signed into the iTunes Store with the Apple ID that you used to purchase the book.
If you bought the book using a different application, which application/store did you buy it from?

After installing Mavericks I had problems copying to the server. Was advised to remove the com.apple.finder.plist from Preferences. This worked - but now I have lost the menu bar from my second screen! How do I get that back?

I have tried re-inserting the com.apple.finder.plist into my Preferences folder and re-booting - this didn't work.

First, that cannot be an iBook G4 as that machine cannot run Snow Leopard let alone Mountain Lion. To run Snow Leopard it has to be an Intel processor, not a G4. What does it show as the Model Identifier in About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Model Identifier?
Second, if you have erased the hard drive there should not be remnants of any prior content. Even though Disk Warrior is saying nothing is wrong with the hard drive, it sounds as though there are problems. You may want to consider simply replacing the hard drive so there are no questions about faults. A good source is OWC, http://www.macsales.com where they also have on-line videos showing how to do the replacement.
Third, you could also try again to restart using the Snow Leopard DVD/CD and use Disk Utility on that install disk to erase again, and do it a couple times, then try to install. If it continues to refuse, then it sounds as though there is a fault with the hard drive.

I just found out I have a second Apple ID, how do I set up my new phone to this account and delete from the other?

Ok so all this time I have thought that I only had one Apple ID. The one my mom and I shared. Now I'm noticing that sometime ago I must have created my own Apple ID. I need to know how to first transfer all of my information from my back up of my old phone on my mom's Apple ID, to the other ID. Then how to bring all of that to my new phone. After that is done, I would like to delete all of my things from my mom's Apple ID to keep us all separate.
Can anyone walk me through this step-by-step?

Apps and media are forever tied to the AppleID used to download them.
You cannot transfer from downloads from one AppleID to another, nor
can you merge AppleIDs. If you wish to start using your own AppleID,
you will have to redownload all the items you wish - paying again under your
AppleIDfor anything requiring payment.
Logout of iTunes under your old ID and login using the new ID.

Accidentally PreOrdered iPhone 4 from ATT and Apple

Anyone have any idea how the Apple/ATT transfer of information works? Am I going to receive both phones? Am I going to be charged an extra $500 for one of the phones or am I going to get both for $200?
I called ATT and the customer service guys seem to have no idea what's going to happen.

Cancel one order. I had the same situation and I called AT&T and cancelled my order. If you want to keep your AT&T order Apple has an easy way to cancel online, just go to Store --> Account --> Order Status, select your status and choose "Cancel Order" at the top right. Just make sure you are confirmed for one.

HT204053 I had been in Canada and created my apple ID for my phone there. Since I am back in the States and had to create a second apple ID. how can I deactivate one of them can use my normal email address?

I had been in Canada and obtained my i4s. I created my Apple ID using my normal email address. I returned to the States and still had my Canadian number. I was told the Canadian version of the iPhone 4s would not work with any phone company in the States, so I had to purchase yet another phone and create another Apple ID.
I have since deactivated the Canadian number. I cannot deactivate that Apple ID though. So I am stuck with two (2) Apple IDs. (not to mention 2 iPhone 4s)
I would very much like to only have one assiciated with the phone I have now. Is there a way to deactivate one of the Apple ID accounts?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I'm not sure you needed to purchase a new phone, you certainly didn't need to create a new ID.
However now you have done, you can't de-activate the old account, just log into your new one and stop using your old one.

We have 2 iphone 4s which have just been updated with IOS5 and whilst setting up icloud the phone contacts were merged and now i have lost my phone contacts on first iphone 4 which have been replaced with phone contacts from my second iphone 4. help?

We have two Iphone 4 handsets. I updated first handset with IOS5 and activated Icloud with my existing Itunes account details - no problems. I then did the same on the second handset and instead of setting up a different Icloud account for the second hanset I mistakenly used the same details as on the first handset and merged the contacts thinking it would add all contacts to both handsets but it instead replaced contacts from first handset with those from the second handset.
How do I get back my contacts from the first hanset?
I read somewhere Icloud saves the last 3 backups which suggests all my contacts that have disappeared are somewhere but how do i find them ???
Help ???

Here's how to do it.
1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts and etc.

I bought an iphone 5C and my music from my dell laptop doesn't let me sync my music into my phone. When i first bought it I accidentally pressed don't show again on itunes. How do I download itunes 11.1 or later now? I have been trying for atleast a month, but I can't find any solutions. I had payed a lot of money on those songs and albums, and now I can't even sync it on to my phone. I know it was stupid of me to press that button, but I need help on trying to get it to sync. -Mohima

You need to have the latest version of iTunes on the computer, version 11.1.3 to be able to handle syncing a newer phone with iOS 7. The iTunes on the iPhone has nothing to do with syncing and is installed by the iOS.
Go to iTunes on the computer, click on Help, Check for updates to update iTunes on the computer, or go to to www.apple.com/itunes/download and download and install the latest version of iTunes to correct your problem.

Flash accidentally got uninstalled from my pc laptop (Chrome), and now won't even load websites so I can't download it. Can I copy it from my desktop? Or how do I get it back onto my laptop?

Hi micha164,
I am curious to know how did Flash Player get uninstalled from Chrome? If you can please share steps to reproduce how your Flash Plugin got Removed?
Also, Can you open chrome application Goto Chrome://plugins and See if Adobe Flash Player Plugin is Disabled? If yes, kindly enable Flash Player Plugin by clicking the [blue colored]enable link and restart the browser to see if the changes have reflected.
Because Flash Player cannot be uninstalled from Chrome using any uninstaller, as it is embedded part of the app installer/update and can only be removed if you remove the plugin reference from the location on disk. Possibility is that your plugin got disabled and did not get enabled after that.
Please see if it helps. If the above does not work then the only resolve is to update Chrome app. Please let us know if your query got resolved or not.

- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in Tunes and select backup
- Restore the iPod from that backup.

Itunes is copying/converting 500gb of music from .wma to .m4a files that are on an external drive onto my laptop which doesnt have enough room. how do i reroute these newly converted files somewhere with enough space for them?

itunes is copying/converting 500gb of music from .wma to .m4a files that are on an external drive onto my laptop which doesnt have enough room. how do i reroute these newly converted files somewhere with enough space for them?
new to itunes, used windows media player before that and always ripped music directly to an external hardrive and accessed it through the player. now that i downloaded itunes it is taking from the external hardrive and copying a second file for each song onto my lap top hard drive which does not have the capacity for all my music. as itunes converts music files i want them saved back onto my external drive or another location i have space for rather than the lap top. how do i change the setting to move the itunes media folder to another location. assuming that hitting copy and past and dropping it in a random location will cause a few errors.

When I have done this, all I did was network the two machines and copy the contents of the iTunes folder to the other machine, and that's it.
My understanding (which may not be 100% correct) is that the one file that is absolutely necessary is iTunes Library, and that the XML file is actually a copy auto-generated from the iTunes Library, appearing in a different format only for non-iTunes apps that take advantage of the iTunes Library data.
As far as I know, if you simply have the Library (database) file and all your original music files, iTunes on that computer should operate as it did on your old computer. I believe that the Album Artwork, Genius Data, and XML files can be regenerated from the Library file. Not sure about the Extras file.
