IPhone Apps from another iTunes account. Syncing problems.

Question

HELP
I had another mac (Ibook G4) and it crashed. I could not use it so I used my husbands account to download some applications and set up my new iphone.
Now I have a new mac. I purchased an application from MY itunes store. When I tried to sync it to my iphone, it started erasing my applications that I purchased through my husbands account.
I tried to back up my applications and add them into my itunes store. It says I can do this at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848.
I did this, but it still says that if I sync it, I will lose all my apps off my iphone. Even though those apps are now in my itunes, I am afraid that if I sync I will lose the apps on my phone and in my application folder on itunes. Does anyone know if that is the case?

Answer 1

You have two different iTunes accounts.
One for you and one for him.
When you try to authorize HIS account on your computer, it says there are already 5 authorized.
You need to Deauthorze all on his account.
Do this...
"*To deauthorize all computers associated with your account*
If you find you have reached 5 authorizations, you can reset your authorization count by clicking Deauthorize All in the Account Information screen.
Click iTunes Store in the menu on the left side of iTunes.
If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
Click the Account button again (your ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All."
You will probably need to do it on his computer since you cannot log on with his account.
See this page -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Then you can authorize is computer again and you can authorize yours.
