I am trying to down load purchased music, but is says I have to Authorize my mac first. How do I do that ?

I am trying to load music I have purchased on a different PC to my MAC. it says I have to authorize the Mac first. does someone know how I do that

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.

    i try to download the song and it comes up with put in password. then it takes me to a credit card detail place. i have enough money on my account i shouldn't have to use my credit card. how can i use the money alredy on my account?

    If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
    If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

  • Trying to down load mountain lion but will only get to 53.25mb

    trying to down load mountain lion but will only get to 53.25mb

    See if this applies:
    Apple has tightened its requirements for this OS upgrade, and some older Macs— even ones that qualified for Lion — won't make the cut for Mountain Lion.
    The general system requirements are straightforward:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
    Apple also lists which models WILL support Mountain Lion:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Hope this helps

  • I forgot my password for my iphone 4 and it is now disabled. I am trying to restore it through itunes, but it say I have to put my passcode into my phone first. Is there a way to restore without using my passcode?

    I forgot my password for my iphone 4 and it is now disabled. I am trying to restore it through itunes, but it say I have to put my passcode into my phone first. Is there a way to restore without using my passcode?

    The instructions are in that link. Just follow them VERY CAREFULLY. Especially the part about:
    Turn off your device and leave it off.
    Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes. [but DON'T connect it to the iPhone yet]
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    When you see the iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
    When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.

  • Re down load purchased music

    Can I re down load music I purchased from Itunes? The music was backed up on my external hard drive. When setting up a new PC, the drive failed.

    Hello Athur,
    Purchases from the iTunes store, with the exception of Apps, are a one time download only. You'll need to repurchase them in order to get them back.  However, some have contacted iTunes support about the issue, and they were granted a free download of all their content again.  Worth a shot.  You can contact them using this link.

  • Hi, i'v tried to down load photo shop but it requires Adobe first. My mac wont support this. Can anyone help ?

    Hi, i have a G5 mac and would like to down load a free trial of photo shop. It requires me to down load Adobe first, however my computer wont allow this. Can any one suggest a remedy??
    Thank you.

    Requires Adobe what first? Photoshop is made by Adobe.
    However, it is unlikely that your G5 Mac supports the latest version of Photoshop which is now only made for Intel Macs.
    You might consider buying an older version on eBay or Amazon.

  • Im trying to update my Iphone OS but it says: " you have purchases that have not been transfered to your itunes library". I dont want to lose anything I've purchased, I dont want to cross reference every app and song to see if its in itunes or not. help

    II have an iPhone 4. I want to update my iPhone operating system but when I do, it says I have purchases that haven't been transfered to my iTunes library. I sync my phone everytime I plug it in (automatically), so I'm not sure why I'm getting the message. I have updated opertating systems before and lost everything, photos, contacts, music, aps, etc so I've been hesitant to do it this time, but my phone is just too slow and aps keep crashing etc.
    Short of going through and manually verifying every app and song ive purchased, how can I figure out what is missing from my library, and begin this update?
    Thx
    Jon

    thanks, but the device displays on the top right of the latest version of itunes, and i doesn't allow a right click. You can open it and access the info inside but theres no option to "transfer items" anywhere :-s

  • I'm trying to install elements 13 that I purchased online.  It says I have to install akamai downloader first.  I'd prefer not. Is there an alternative?

    I'm trying to install elements 13 that I purchased online  It says I need to install akamai downloader first  I'd prefer not to.  Is there an alternative?

    yes, there's a popup that allows a direct download.  or dl from prodesigntools.com
    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • I tried to play a song. But it says I need to authorize my computer with a very old apple id I dont use anymore and I cant play the song. How do I fix this?

    I am trying to play a song I bought and it is saying I need to authorize my computer to use it with a very old id that I no longer use for apple. How do I get all my music back?

    You need to authorize the computer with that specific Apple ID. If that account's inaccessible, delete the song and then purchase it from your current Apple ID, or click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • I pre-ordered an album, but its not showing up in my purchase history but it says I have it in my acount info. Thanks in advanced.

    I pre-ordered George Ezra's new album (the dulxe version), but and it says I have it in my accout info but it wont download.

    Hi GroveMaster,
    The article below explains how the pre-order process works.  If the item does not automatically downlowd to your iTunes Music library, and you are unable to download the purchased content, I've included a link to contact the iTunes Store Support team as well.
    iTunes Store: About pre-orders - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202723
    You can pre-order music and movies from the iTunes Store prior to their public release date. Pre-ordered items will download when they become available.
    If an item isn't yet available, you may be able to pre-order it and download it when it becomes available. Items available for pre-order will have an orange pre-order button that displays the pre-order price. Most pre-orders will show an expected release date near or below the pre-order button. When the pre-order item becomes available, your account will be billed for the pre-order, and the item will appear in the Purchased section of your account. If there is a billing issue that prevents us from billing your account when the item is released, you'll receive an email notifying you that the item is available. You need to click the link within the email, using a computer and the latest version of iTunes, to fulfill the pre-order. You may also receive one or more emails if the status of your pre-order changes.
    Some pre-orders include songs that are available for download immediately. When you pre-order, you will be charged only for these songs and you will receive them immediately.To pre-order an item
    Click or tap the Pre-order button.
    Click or tap Pre-order on the confirmation dialog.
    When you've successfully completed a pre-order, a thank-you page will appear.
     Download a pre-ordered item
    When a pre-ordered item becomes available, you will receive an email letting you know that you can download your pre-order.
    If you enabled the option to automatically download prepurchased content in iTunes, then your pre-ordered content may already be in your library. If not, click the download link provided in your email notification, and your pre-ordered content will begin to download. You can also use the Check for Available Downloads feature in iTunes on your computer (choose Store > Check for Available Downloads) to begin downloading your pre-order.
     To view, cancel, or see the expected release dates for your pending pre-orders
    Choose Store > View My Apple ID and click Manage Pre-Orders, which is located in the Settings section at the bottom of the Account Information screen in iTunes on your computer.
    From the Manage Pre-Orders screen, click the Cancel button to the right of the pre-order you want to cancel. You'll be asked to confirm your pre-order cancellation.
    Note: You can't manage pre-orders on iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
