I can not find in iTunes where to choose "Authorize This Computer"?

My computer crashed. Technical guys rescued most of content including iTunes library. I had 4 computers authorized. I can pull up my library of music but can't add to the library because I cannot have my new computer authorized by following the instruction given by iTunes. My computer: PC Windows 8.
Windows 8 has been a nightmare, but I'm learning.
Help?

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.

  • Using my iPad and when opening ITunes, can't find the store menu to choose "authorize this computer."

    I need to authorize this iPad.  Instructions say to open ITunes and from the store menu choose "authorize this computer.". Cannot find.
    Thank you,

    Use iTune on your computer. You authorize the computer not the iPad.

  • I can not move my itunes music to my windows 8 computer. Can anyone help me? Please

    I am having a issue with my new computer, it has windows 8 is not allowing me to down load my iTunes music on to it. iTunes message says I need to authorize my computer. I am not sure how to do this can anyone HELP me?    

    click on the store tab on the top left of iTunes.  Scroll to where it says "Authorize this computer...".  Click on that and enter your apple id and password then click authorize.  The reason iTunes says that your computer needs to be authorized is because it is to be sure that iTunes knows can trust your new computer

      There is no need to uninstall earlier versions unless you are really short of disk space.

    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 Where is the "Authorize this computer" option located??!!!!!

    I just installed Itunes on my laptop, but before I can download my past purchases it says I must authorize this computer. I click "ok" but it doesn't take me where I need to go to authorize it. I've read other member questions with the same problem online, and it says to go to the Itunes "store menu" then "authorize this computer" but I don't have that at the top of my screen! I've looked and looked & this is driving me CRAZY!!!!!  Currently I have 2 other authorized computers (desktops) that are currently disconnected at this time. I'm only using the laptop. LISTEN APPLE PEOPLE, this should NOT be this difficult. Please provide step by step instructions for stuff like this (screen shots would help as well). The only screen shot I saw was listed in a Yahoo forum & the Itunes store bar at the top didn't look like mine. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

  • HT1420 Where is the "authorize this computer" function?

    Where is the "authorize this computer" function in the iTunes store?

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Altrenatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

    However, it is in iTunes for Windows.
    I see that mac does not work like windows. Windows the file menu bar is in the itunes window itself. On mac the file menu bar is on the top of your screen
    Correct
    (on my laptop and the itunes of course is being viewed on my monitor.
    Not really "of course". No one was aware you are using two screens and you did not mention you were new to Mac from Windows.
    Is there a setting to have the menu bar with my itunes window?
    Only if you rewrite Mac OS and iTunes for Mac.
