If you have exceeded your allowance of 5 machines then Apple will not allow you to authorise additional Computers. If you still have access to your old toshiba fire it up de-authorise it and then try again with the new computer.
While this won't help if you are having password problems, I did want to point out that you do not need to access old machines to de-authorize them. Once you are signed in at the iTunes store, access "my account" by clicking on your username in the top navigation bar. Then "manage devices". You can remove any old machines that way.

Download what applications?
Apps in iTunes do not run on computers.
What is the exact error and where specifically is it occurring?

My computer has Bitlocker encryption. When I plug in my iPod Shuffle to the USB port, iTunes does not recognize it.

My Apple TV does not work and has never worked.

My Apple TV does not work and has never worked. I replaced it twice and replaced my router and DSL modem but no luck. I spent hours on tech support with both apple and my ISPs with no luck. Any ideas? Is the Apple TV a donation to apple? I have had the device for 8 months but it will not work for longer than 15 minutes before it drops with network errors. All of my other devices work perfectly on the network including 2 iPads, laptops and an old wii. I love apple products and this is the first real disappointment I have had. The Apple TV seems like a major dud of a product.

Seems unlikely you have had two faulty replacements, and more likely that there may be some network compatibility issue or problem with reception in the location the AppleTV lies - anything close to it that might be interfering?
I am assuming you are connected via wifi - if you can try an ethernet connection to rule wifi issues out.
Could you try it at somone else's house maybe? If it worked there it would point to something specific at your location.
You could try replacing it again I guess or seeing if they can offer you credit or a refund.

TS1368 My Itunes match is not working right, it was only able to download 50% of my songs and now I can't play the balance songs.. it's so stupid

My Itunes match is not working right, it was only able to download 50% of my songs and now I can't play the balance songs.. it has messed up my enitre music library

Hello Carpathianna,
No judgment here on the music you listen to, I have that song too in my library. If iTunes is telling you that the song is missing and you purchased it from the iTunes Store, then just delete it from your iTunes library and then download your song again. Check out the articles below for more information.
How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store

I bought a new computer, and when transferring over to new computer, forgot bookmarks, now I can't find them on my old computer!

We bought a new computer, and somehow bookmarks did not transfer to new computer, and now i cannot find them anywhere!

at the end of the article Ed mentioned is
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox Transferring data to a new profile - Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]
I actually copied most of my user application data from my old system to my new system and that includes all of my Firefox profiles. If I just wanted one profile, I would create the new profile on the new system and copy the old profile into it as I have much too much in the way of modifications to risk losing. as opposed to copying just a few files to the new profile.
Since it appears you only want/need your bookmarks file, then assuming your old system is operational and was using Firefox 3.0 or higher,
bring it up type in about:support or use Help -> Trouble Shooting Information then click on "Open Containing Folder" You will find your old places.sqlite file there or you can restore the latest .json file from the bookmarksbackups directory with the help of a USB thumb drive.
The places.sqlite file would be copied into your new profile with Firefox down and check the Windows Task Manager's Processes Tab to make sure firefox.exe is not running (Window's 7 only keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+Esc).
If you restore a bookmarkbackups .json file you would do that with your new Firefox open and through the Library list ("Ctrl+Shift+B") then "Import and Backup" on the Library menu bar, then "Restore" then "Choose File" the restore will go very fast.
Since you are going to a new system and both Firefox 4 and Windows 7 may both be new to you, and I would suggest checking out the following two articles where you may find solutions to some of the problems with each, or how to work with them.
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

When I close my browser and reopen, it, all of the tabs that were previously open reopen, does not refresh and open with my home page opening.

when I close my browser and then reopen it, it does not go to the selected home page, but reopens with all of the previous tabs. reviewed the available knowledge based answers, but none seemed to fix problem. I'm not certain that I did everything correctly, but I believe I followed the directions properly. problem persists.

Assuming Firefox is set to start up with your home page, there are two common reasons for this:
* You have a user.js file instructing Firefox to ignore your previously saved settings and restore the earlier session. See this article on tracking down and removing that file: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
* Firefox is crashing, and doing an automatic crash recovery. As a diagnostic, you can change what Firefox does during a crash recovery, from automatically restoring to showing a list of windows and tabs from your previous session so you can pick and choose what to restore.
''To try the change:''
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''sess''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes''' preference and change the value from 1 to 0 and OK that.
Hope that helps.

I lost my music when my old computer crashed and did itunes on my new computer and can get it back

i lost my music when my old computer crashed and when i got my new computer it erased all my music from itunes and my iphone 4... Please help!!!

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

Map does not load and screen stays partially blank

There is a link on a website that I use for work that loads a map on a new tab. That link was working fine with the previous version of Firefox. But ever since I installed the latest Firefox version available, the link leads to a new tab with partial information but the map does not load and the area where it was supposed to load stays blank. Refreshing the page does not solve the situation.

if you are using mapquest -- i had the same problem. i simply reinstalled firefox 3.6 and uninstalled version 4.0. the popup function was restored.

My computer crashed and I have to buy a new one. What happens to my Contacts, Photos, etc when i use the new computer? I do not have an iTunes backup.

Do you have the iCloud set up? If you don't you need to buy a third party software that will do it for you when you plug your phone into the new computer. You can google: iPad/iPhone/iPod to Computer Transfer. You have to pay for the software but it's really a life saver and you get free updates for life. It'll save you a lot of pain and suffering in the future. I've used it many times.

After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

Got it! Thanx. What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

My external hard drive is no longer connecting. I was getting a message every time I plugged it in that it needed to be reformatted so I tried to do so and now when I plug it in the computer does not recognize it. It only shows up in utilities...

Hey guys, I need some serious help. I have an external hard drive, iomega which apears to no longer work; I am sure it is something I have done and I cant figure out what! I am certainly not a computer expert and am in Turkey so I dont have access to a MAC store for assistance or anything like it. Yesterday I plugged my external hard drive into my MacBook and got a message telling me to refotmat. I looked up how to do so and through disk utilities thought I did it right. Now when I plug in the hard drive my laptop does not pick it up; the only place it shows up is in utilities, the same place I tried to repair and reformat. When I am utilities it looks like I have 2 hard drives, one under the other. One tells me the description of the hard drive, the other doesnt really tell me anything. So I erased both of them and I think that is where my problem is. Any help on how I could fix this? I tried to "mount" the one that is not "mounted but it didnt work....I dont even know what that means!!! Help!

When you erased the disk did you select Mac OS Extended Journaled as the format option?

You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.
