You cannot deauthorie a computer without access to that computer.
You can deauthorize all, then authorize the active computers.

Hi I need to change itunes country from UK to USA I have US payment details but my billing address is in UK. How can I set this up?
The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE -
Music is duplicated in two separate accounts. How do we separate them?
Hi topper42,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
You have a couple of different options for syncing different devices on different accounts to one computer. One option is to create a completely separate computer user account to keep the accounts separate. Another option could be to create a second iTunes library in the same user account. Please use the following information to read over and use as a reference.

I bought Ipad 2 wi-fi 3G, from Verizon, Is posible to change a Chip´??
The Verizon 3g iPad uses a mobile technology called CDMA. CDMA does not use SIM cards or anything similar, it basically works off a hardware identifier for the device that's built-in to the packet radio and registered with your provider. CDMA is pretty much used by Verizon in North America and several countries in Asia.
Most of the world uses the GSM technology that's the basis of the AT&T 3g iPad. That's the one you want if you plan to use 3g wireless service outside of the country.
The WiFi feature on both systems works identically. The only stipulation is that you be near a WiFi access point. -

Authorization and Deauthorization
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. -
I have tried to restore my iPhone but when it has gone through all the restore I get the -1 error message and now my phone will not work at all, how do I rectify this please.
Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service. -
I current have an iTunes account but need to change computers. Do I need to establish a new account on that computer?

I already have 5 computers that authorized this account, but I lost 1 and 1 broke. How can I remove the computer off the account?

I have completed my list of 5 computers authorized. I am trying to authorize another one but I need to get rid of two authorized computers which hard disks have crashed. How can I deauthorize those two without affecting the other three?
Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but if you've reached the 5 computer limit then you can log into your account and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

I authorized 5 PCs in the past in different places. Now I want to deauthorize each of them selectively. I can not deauthorize all as I need one to remain authorized. So, how can I deauthorize the last 4 PCs?
Thanks.Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but you can 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need - deauthorising a computer doesn't remove any content from it, it just means that you can't use/play your iTunes downloads on it until you reauthorise it : authorising and deauthorising.

I had my computer repaired, and when I got it back I had to reinstall iTunes. Now iTunes won't authorize this computer because it says we already have 5 devices authorized, but this is the same computer. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Deauthorizing won't delete anything, and all your purchased content is safe. You will just have to reauthorize any of the other computers that get deauthorized along with your computers old machine id.
To get your purchased content back on that computer, just use iTunes to redownload it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US). Of course, music you ripped from CD or got from another source you'll need to copy those files back over. -
only have 3 devices authorized, but my new computer will not authorize. Itune says there are 5 devices connected already. why?
Perhaps the five includes computers that you no longer own, or a computer that has had a replacement hard drive put in it.
In your iTunes account, De-authorise All and then authorise the computer(s) that you still use. -

I currently have a basic phone but I would like to switch to a smart phone. I don't have an upgrade right now and none of the other phones on the plan have an upgrade either (4 phones in total, 2 smart phones and 2 basic). Is it possible to get a phone from a 3rd party, instead of buying a phone from Verizon at full price, to switch with the basic phone?

How can i deauthorize a computer that once was authorized then I had to reinstall (windows 7) like 3 times and reload itunes reach time to get this authorization crap. I only have 3 computers actually authorized. This one is the 4th. This is ridicules.
If you've got 5 computers authorised for the account in question, and you need to free up authorizations, I'd do a "Deauthorize All" from one of the computers you have access to, and then reauthorize the computers you have access to.
For instructions, see the following document:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
(Best to deauthorise a computer before you reinstall the OS on it.)
