I did NOT authorize my Apple ID on more than 5 computers.

So why is it saying that? And why can't I authorize my new computer?
Both my old computers (Mac) don't work anymore, so I can't deauthorize either of them. But it wasn't more than 2 computers.

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.
For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

  • TS2446 Apple ID on more than 5 computers

    I have upgraded my computer bios & Apple ID states that I have registered more than 5 computers.
    Without it,  how can I register that computer & update my IPOD?

    You will need to deauthorise your account on one or more computer before you can re-authorise it on that one.  Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but as you have multiple computers authorised then you can log into your account on your computer's iTunes (Store > View My 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 am so angry - there has to be a misundering.  my Itunes was disabled as there was a charge that I did not authorize and I cannot find the phone

    I am so angry - there has to be a misunderstanding.  my Itunes was disabled as there was a charge that I did not authorize and I cannot find the phone number for security and the dingbat girl who I'm emailing send me a link that does not work.  And I am extremely frustrated.   Please help.  I need a phone # to contact security.

    I did not authorize 2 in app purchases and because my credit card is at its limit, and i dont know how to reverse the in app purchases, i cannot update any app or do just about anything in the appstore or itunes store. I dont care if i owe apple's itunes appstore a few dollars over 2 in app purchases i never meant to download in fact the whole app itself i wanted to delete...but out of the hundreds (maybe lower thousands) fof dollars in music and apps and whatever else, that i rightfully purchased over the passed couple of years....should *NOT* have the upgrades and/or previous purchased songs withheld from me over $3 in accidently purchased add ons through an existing app i deleted an disliked anyway

  • Can I get my money back for a purchase I did not authorize

    You can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If they were made an on iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch then to try and stop it happening again you can use Settings > General > Restrictions > In-App Purchases 'off' to stop in-app purchases being made, and depending upon the iOS version on it you might also have a Require Password setting on the Restrictions screen which you can set to 'Immediately'

    Have you downloaded any apps on an iPad/iPhone for kids? If so you may have in-app purchases enabled for free games or similar, and they've racked up charges for you.

    You possibly set up an auto-renewing subscription with the app - there are instructions on this page on how to manage them, including how to stop them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098

    Since you disputed the charges with your credit card company, the CC company reversed the charges and Apple (correctly) locked the AppleID.
    You will need to contact Apple -> http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/
    and explain what happened.

  • I have a charge that I did not authorize?

    I have a charge for $24.99 that I did not authorize?

    The amount, $24.99, ties up with the cost of iTunes Match in the US - have you subscribed to it and/or is it due for renewal ?
    You can view the purchase history on your iTunes account via your computer's iTunes : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases (the most recent is above the list).
    If you didn't make the purchase, and nobody else has access to your account or devices and made it, then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

    How do I get a refund for downloads I did not authorize?

    iTunes Customer Service Contact - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html > Get iTunes support via Express Lane > iTunes > iTunes Store
    There is no automatic way to do this because any purchases made with your account are assumed to be authorized by you.  If this involved account hacking you can report it to iTunes Store but purchases made with a credit card should be reported to the card fraud department.
