Three computers left for downloads of my music.

I recently had a virus that attacked my executable files of my computer. Therefore I had to totally reconfigure my computer. When reloading my itune file to my same computer, it said that I have a new computer and used one of my computers for my sharing of music files. How do I resolve this issue?
Thanks,

What issue?
Just authorize the computer and move on.
When you reach the 5 max, then de-authorize all and the re-authorize only the active computers.

HT1420 If I deactivate all computers will all downloads, pictures and music libraries remain accessible after re-authorizing a computer?

Authorizing computer for downloading previously purchased music

How do I authorize a computer to download the music I purchased on my iPad?

It sounds like you aren't doing this right.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.
You will have to contact iTunes Customer service about possibly getting a refund.

Error message for downloading podcasts and music

I will get this message whenever I try to move my podcasts to my ipod.
"Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod because they have not been downloaded to this computer".
I will right click on each podcast, go to where it says download this item and click on that. I do subscribe to the podcasts I listen to. This is extremely frustrating.
Thanks for any help!

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.

HT1420 I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing. So I can't even get my music from my old Macbook into my new

I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing because it says I have 5 computers authorised (I don't). I can't even get my music from the iTunes library on my old Macbook onto my new one, because it won't let me sync my iPhone 5 with my old Macbook, as I can't update the iTunes software. So I have a new MacbookPro and a new iPhone 5 and I can't get any of my music on either of them. I feel singularly depressed.

As you have more than 1 computer authorised then you should be able to 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.

One of the computers on my homesharing network is automatically downloading purchases even though settings are not checked for this to occur? What am I missing here? BTW only one of the three computers (pc) is doing this.

We have three computers (two pcs and one mac) on our home sharing network. When I buy a song on my pc it is automatically downloading it to my husband's pc - but not my daugher's mac. The settings on each library do not indicate any items should automatically download. What am I missing here? This is a relatively recent thing I just noticed. It was not always happening in this way. Help. Both pcs are on Windows 7. Thanks in advance for any help. My husband and I don't always like the same songs so I need help to get back to marital bliss....

I think I found the answer to my own problemin case anyone experienced the same thing. There is a separate spot in itunes under preferences to allow for automatic downloads from other devices. It seems unrelated to home sharing. I unchecked the boxes under the "store" section and that appears to have taken care of the issue.

I have had my ipod for about three years and for the first time I can't downloan all my music. Only about 10% is downloading. I deleted sveral play lists to make I have plenty of space. Any suggestions?

I have had my ipod classic for several years and never had a problem downloading all my music. Now for the 1st time I can only download about 10% of my music. Any ideas?

Which version of iTunes are you using? (please give me the version number and not the "latest")
What is the iPod software number as listed in the iTunes summary page?
How much free space, do you see on your iPod screen, when you go down main menu and select the settings?
And it should also display on your iTunes summary screen, when you connect the iPod, the free space available.
How much song to you want to sync to you iPod?, normally if it is "Auto Sync", iTunes will delete all the songs in iPod and reload with the library content.
If you have more than enough space in iPod and the sync stop at 10%, then it is another common unresolve problem, with Ipod Classic and iTunes interfacing.
Have a nice day

I have icloud and downloaded new CDs on my 2nd computer. How do I download the new music into my old computers iTunes using icloud.

For your computer first get iTunes to see it by:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
- The transfer iTunes purchases
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Or redownload them by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
newer copy
- Connect the iPod to your compute and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup
Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

A few years ago I bought music from Itunes. Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer. Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it. How can I download all the music I have purchased from

Might have luck with that here > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.

Downloading the 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and it seems stuck at "registering updated components". It's running but I've had "about a minute" left for 30 minutes now

Trying to download the 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and it seems stuck at "Registering updated components". It's been saying it has "about a minute" left for at least a half hour. What do I do?

Try downloading it from the Apple site. Set Safari to download to the desk top:Safari preferences>general>save downloads to desktop. Download to desktop, and run the installer:

I-Tunes stopped working - wouldn't transfer music to library or IPod. I uninstalled it. Now it's gone but won't reinstall - just says "Thanks for downloading" when I hit the download button.

Hello! I'm having a giant I-Tunes problem. It started acting up a few weeks ago - wouldn't let me add information to songs, etc. and now it's full-blown screwed up - won't transfer music into the library, won't transfer music onto my IPod from my library, etc. So I finally decided to uninstall and reinstall and hope that might help. I uninstalled it and it is no longer on my computer. When I go to download it, though, it immediately comes up with "thank you for downloading" after I hit the the button and does NOT download. I can't get it back and if I do, I don't know if it will work. Any advice? Much appreciated! Tom

I have found turingttest2 very helpful in these matters.

I am at starbucks and when I try to download my free music on itunes, my password is always rejected, even when i am forced to create a new one!!! what am I doing wrong, who do I ask for help?

Due to recent security issues and identify theft (mostly due to phishing scams), the iTunes Store seems to be requiring more frequent verification of credit card information when a card is registered in your account, even if you have a balance from a prepaid card. Either just go through the verification process or, if you have a credit card entered and you don't expect to need the card anytime soon, go into the Payment information in your account and set the payment method to "none" which should then stop the regular requirements for verification (it may still ask - mine does - but you should just be able to click through the buttons without problems).
Hope this helps.
