Removed authorization on old computer, but iTunes still tells me I have 5 authorizations in iTunes on other computers, and I need to remove one before I can auth. my new mac! arrrgh!!

I'm trying to authorize my new mac in iTunes, but it keeps telling me i need to remove one authorization from another computer.
I removed the authorization from my old laptop - but it STILL tells me i need to remove one authorization before my new mac can be authorized!! I even removed iTunes on the old computer, but it still doesn't work! What do I do?? I want the music from my iMac to be on my MacBook as well!

Once a year, you can also perform a step called "deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID". It will clear all 5 authorizations so you can reauthorize the one you want.

I have bought the Revel Premium upgrade but it still tells me I have not signed up

I paid to upgrade to Revel Premium but when I try to upload pictures it tells me I am over my limit and need to upgrade to Premium. So I have tried to resign up and it tells me I have already signed up. What have I got to do to make this take effect?

I did this upgrade some time ago and it is still giving me the same message as of this moment.

I can't open firefox on an old computer, but would still like to access my firefox bookmarks on that computer, is that possible, if so, how?

My old computer is infected with a virus that won't allow me to open Firefox -or Windows Explorer, for that matter- but since I'm no longer using that computer, that isn't an issue. However, I do need some bookmarks from the old computer. Is it at all possible to find them despite these handicaps? If so, how? I believe I was running Firefox 3 or 4 on the old comp.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Software Update not working properly)
Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder:
*C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
*(%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates)
*C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\updates
*Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
*Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer. Do not remove personal data when uninstalling.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

I have apparently already authorized 5 other computers and need to sync my iphone with this computer. How do I unauthorize the other computers when i no longer have them?

i have already authorized 5 other computers that I no longer have and now cannot sync and store my music etc. on my current computer. how can i unauthorize all other computers if I no longer have them?

Go to store on the menu bar. Select view my account. From there, go to manage devices. It will give you a list of all the computer that are authorized to use your account. This will allow you to choose which ones you want to delete.

Did you find the Firefox profile folder?

How do you correct Windows 7 "you can't log in because of a server error"? I have tried all suggestions on this forum and still continues to be a problem. All my other computers and devices are fine.

I have reset winsock, I have disabled firwewall, virus program, - tried everything. Still no luck. Looks like many people are havoing the same problem. What IS the problem and how can it be fixed?

Antonio,
Show ... it worked ... you are the man! This hint of clicking the right mouse button on the prompt and run as Administrator was perfect.
Thank you very much

I have an iPhone, an iPad, 2 iPad mini's and 2 iPod Touch's that all share the same apple id. I want to separate the iPhone so that texts are not seen on the other devices but I still want them to have the iMessage ability. How do I do that?

Probably corrupted on download. Delete from library and go to iTunes Store > purchased and redownload.

How do i move ipod nano content to a new Windows computer? My old computer died and when i try to sync to itunes on my new Windows computer, it says it will erase what's on the ipod. I can't seem to de-authorize the old computer (it's been recycled).

Hi, I'm an ipod newbie, and unsure of what product i have-i believe it's an ipod nano, but can't seem to find any info on itunes that will identify my product.
how do i move ipod nano music to a new Windows 7 computer? My old computer died and when i try to sync to itunes on my new Windows computer, it says it will erase what's on the ipod. I can't seem to de-authorize the old computer (it's been recycled). Does this mean I have to start all over and read in my CD's into itunes? seems very inflexible/inelegant...

Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

HT1848 my ipod will not update. I have plugged it into itunes and authorizing the computer but, it still says that all of the purchased product has not been transfered.

my ipod will not update. I have plugged it into itunes and authorizing the computer but, it still says that all of the purchased product has not been transfered. It keeps telling me to authorize the computer which I have done. The purchased items were purchased using an $10 gift card, would that have anything to do with it?
Thanks,

We won't know until you try the procedure. The reset will not affect the content of the iPod.

Drag the folder into the library in the open iTunes program window.

TS2529 Hi. The mother board on my computer went and I had to get a new computer. My itunes files were recovered from my old computer, but I am not sure how to go about syncing my ipod to the new itunes that I just downloaded.

I am trying to sync my ipod and the new itunes library I just loaded. My old computer basicall crashed and I had to get a new one. They were able to recover all the data from my old computer, but there is no music listed in the new itunes library. How do I get this to work as it did on the old computer?

Hello cheech07,
The following article contains directions that can help get you back on track with iTunes. I'd recommend picking up at 'Part 5' of the 'External drive' section.
