Removed mac from devices in itunes in the cloud (get it back?)

in my acct. in the itunes store i accidentally removed my mac from "manage devices", under itunes in the cloud. my iphone is still listed. for the life of me i cant figure out how to add my mac back. i can't seem to find anything to give me a clear and easy answer. any help would be appreciated, thank you.

As long as your Mac is authorized for the Apple ID (in Store>Authorize This Computer), I believe all you would need to do is either:
Download a previous purchase for the ID in iTunes
Subscribe to iTunes Match using the ID; or
Sign into the iTunes store with the ID, then enable Automatic Downloads in iTunes>Preferences>Store
Any of these should automatically add your Mac to the list of devices that are authorized to download from iTunes in the Cloud. The only restriction would be if you were trying to change IDs and it had been less than 90 days since it was first associated with the ID (i.e., there is a 90-day wait period before you can switch IDs: see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627).

Removing apps from devices in itunes

Hi all, first time and hopefully last time blogger but if IT’S BROKEN I’ll be back. I have 3 IOS devices (iphone 5, ipads 2 & 3) all have been updated to the
latest IOS software. These devices are synced with a PC which has the latest itunes software. I can’t remove any apps through itunes for any of the devices
(e.g. sync with itunes then highlight the apps in the app screen but it won’t change to “will remove”).
Does anyone know why apple breaks (it’s broken) these interfacing software issues. Why change things to be difficult , aren’t these software
updates meant to be improvements not hassles

Until a couple of days ago, I had never seen this in iTunes. This is not exactly what you are talking about but it is somewhat related. I found this to be very odd. The long and short of it is that I could delete apps from my iTunes library, then sync my iPad with iTunes - and even though the apps were no longer in the apps list when the iPad was connected to my Mac, with iTunes running and with the iPad selected under devices - they were not removed when I synced.
Take a look.
How do i prevent removed apps from syncing when connecting to iTunes

Hi, cdv2007.
Here are some helpful troubleshooting steps I would recommend going through when your device is not recognized on a Mac.
Note: This article is for Mac OS X users. If you're using a Windows PC, please refer to these troubleshooting suggestions.
Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
Note: If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Restart your Mac.

Removing Content from my iPad without having the Cloud

I am trying to clean my iPad of all iTunes Media. I have removed the songs, videos, and such but still have them there with a cloud. I would like to have a clean slate. I have everything backed up on my iMac for upload to my iPad later.

Those items are not on the iPad. The cloud icon means that they are in iCloud and can be downloaded by tapping on the cloud. You can hide those items by going to Settings> iTunes & App Store>Show all>Music>Off and Videos>Off.

How do I recover a device that was accidentally removed from my iTunes in the Cloud account?

While removing old devices from my iTunes in the Cloud account, I accidently removed my current iPhone 5s from the list. I have saved closed out of the "manage account" window yet but don't see how to go back and undo this mistake. Is there a way to reverse this before closing out of this or do I have to re-install device?

Try going to Settings>iTunes & App Store and enabling Automatic Downloads while signed into the Apple ID you were managing. (If it's enabled, turn it off, then back on.) That should add the device to iTunes in the Cloud for the ID.

Hi Eric Ferguson,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
Best of luck,
Mario

2 Some movies may not be available from iTunes in the Cloud. These movies, if purchased in HD, will download both the HD and SD versions for you to sync to your compatible iPod and iOS devices. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.

Do you have a question ? Not all content is available for re-downloading e.g. if the content provider (or Apple) removes them from the store, and there are also some film studios (in countries where film re-downlaoding is possible) who haven't agreed to allow their films to be re-downloaded.
Otherwise, re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

How can I put back my iPhone as a device in View My Account iTunes in the Cloud Manage Devices?

I went into this list and noticed that I had my old iPhone 3Gs and my new iPhone 5s listed as devices. I also had 2 PC's listed. So there were 4 devices associated wih my Apple ID. Here is a little background. When setting up my new phone, I had mistakenly given the new phone the identical name as my old iPhone 3GS, then realized that was a mistake because it would be hard to differentiate between the 2 phones in lists (for example: Restore backup lists is a very good example). So I changed the name of my new phone so it would be different.
My old phone was called Bruce's iPhone and my new iPhone was called Bruce's 5s. Even though I had changed the name of my new phone, the list of devices under View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Manage Devices had the 2 phones still listed with the same name, Bruce's iPhone. I was able to tell the difference by the date the devices were established, but I did not like that.
So I used the 'Remove' button and deleted the listing for the newer listing of Bruce's iPhone. Now, no matter what I try I can not get that new name and that device to get back on the list. There are now 3 devices only.
Since I did this, I have developed the issue where when I sync, the system hangs on Step 7 of the Sync, "Waiting for changes to be applied". I stopped it after 3+ hours. Then I restored my most recent backup (to the Cloud) and the next Sync worked. I have no idea if the above action on my part is in any way connected to my developing the syncing issue.
Does anyone know how I can get that device, my new iPhone 5s, called Bruce's 5s back on this list of devices? I seem to be able to do all the actions I want to with the devicer and my Apple ID. But the coincidence of the above change that I ran into didn't make me smile either.
Thanks in advance for any input/help?
Bruce - obviously

Is this your issue > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818

Error upon loading a video from the iTunes in the cloud

I bought a movie called Epic and when I tried to play on my Apple TV via streaming from the iTunes in the cloud it was playing until yesterday it start displaying an Error message "Error upon loading this video content". How long does it take for that to be corrected?

OK well, I think all that stuff about licensing is not true, unless explicitly stated
Just working off a gut feeling (or perhaps just wishing it weren't true)? I suggest actually checking:
https://www.google.com/search?q=us+rip+dvd+legal
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Millennium_Copyright_Act
Typically any mention of ripping DVDs may get a topic removed from the ASC forums since it is discussion of an "illegal activity" and subject to Terms of Use.
The key thing here is if you upload a file to your library, then try to replace that same file with the same file name, iTunes will ignore it and NOT overwrite the file that's already there. You have to delete the file off first and THEN add to library again.
Correct, iTunes works on a file basis not a track label basis. That's why I said delete the old file. You could have 20 identical files with the same name (in different folders) and iTunes will add them all right next to each other. Nothing new in iTunes behavior there. In fact if you had gone to the location where the media file was stored and copied a new one over the old one with the same name I believe iTunes would still know it wasn't the original. You can, however, edit a file using a third party tool and save it in place and iTunes will accept the changes without having to re-add the file.

Can't download from iTunes in the Cloud

iTunes Match and iTunes in the Cloud for Music has just been enabled for Denmark.
Hence music I have purchased should now be available for download on my iOS devices, e.g. my iPad.
However, when I attempt to download a song, via the Purchased 'tab' in the iTunes Store App, where I get a list of my purchases all marked with the iCloud icon, I get the error "The item you tried to buy is no longer available", see the screenshot below. I know the song IS available in the store, but I get the error none the less, and I get the error for all songs.
Is iTunes in the Cloud just not ready or is something else going on? I have tried to sign out and sign in again, restart the app, etc. to no avail.
Suggestions? - I write iTunes support and wound up in an endless loop of nonsensical replies

I too have now opened up a ticket to address the issue.
This is the details from my ticket including my current symptoms:
Hi team,
'iTunes in the Cloud' has recently been rolled out in Denmark, however, I am unable to make it work.
Symptoms include:
* On iOS devices I am able to play previously purchased music, but I cannot download the music for offline use.
* On Apple TV I cannot sign in when clicking the "Music" app.
* AirPlay from iOS devices to Apple TV only works when I set the Apple TV setting "Play from iTunes in the Cloud" to 'Off'.
Please also note the following forum thread that has users from Denmark, Sweden and Norway seeing the same symptoms:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/24130694?ac_cid=tw123456#24130694?ac_cid=t w123456
I'll keep you updated.

After removing virus from xp home. itunes gives error -50 when i try to open it

after removing virus from xp home. itunes gives error -50 when i try to open it.

Ah, the old jokes are still often the best ones, rIcHaRd ...
The -50 in that context can indicate damage to your Apple Application Support. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are stashed.) So I'd first try a repair install of your Apple Application Support.
Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove programs control, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Does the repair install go through okay? If so, does your iTunes start launching again?
