TS1368 I have authorized 5 computers for my itunes account and cannot authorize any more computers.  However, two of my computers had hard drive crashes and I can't go to those computers to deauthorize them so I can add new computers.  How do I do that?

I have authorized over the past years a total of 5 computers, two of which bit the dust.  Apple will not allow me to authorize any more computers because I've maxed out the limit of 5.  According to the instructions, I must deauthorize the two computers that crashed to allo any more computers to share my music, videos, etc.  I can't deauthorize the two hard drives that "crashed", so how can I authorize any more computers?  Help.

Once per year you can deauthorize all five computers regardless of whether they are still in service or no longer in your possession. You can then reauthorize the computers you still use.
In iTunes Store click on the Account link under Quick Links.

  • Help!  I no longer have the email address for my itunes account and cannot verify Apple ID

    I am trying to log into my itunes account and it tells me I need to verify my account by logging into my email.  My AppleID is an old email account that I can no longer access.  I want to log in to itunes to update my email account on file, but when I try to log in it says I need to verify my account.  I'm stuck.  Does this mean I can no longer access the money I have on my itunes account since it doesn't let me sign in without verifying?
    Frustrating!

  • I currently have my credit card on my iTunes account and when I have no money in my bank account it won't let me download the free apps even though they don't cost anything. How do I stop this so I can download or remove my credit card?

    All downloads from iTunes are tied to the account that downloaded it, you can't re-download content via a different account. You checked the spam folder on yourr old account as well as the Inbox, and depending upon how long ago you did it, have you retried getting it reset : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password' ?

  • I have a 100 credit in my iTunes account and I am not able to log in to my account because my email is no longer active can a get a credit for amount i have in my account?

    I have a 100 credit in my iTunes account and I am not able to log in to my account because my email is no longer active, can a get a credit for amount i have in my account?

    Why can you not login into the account ? You should be able to if you remember the account's password, if you can't then you can get it reset e.g. by answering your account's security questions : http://iforgot.apple.com
    If you can't reset it via your security questions then contact Support in your country, they should be able to reset your password (and security questions) for you (after they've verified your id and that it's your account).
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5699
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    You can then change the primary email address on your account e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com

    Got a problem in my iTunes account and I can not purchase through

    Most of the people on these public forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here. I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post.
    What happens when you try to buy them, does the 'buy' button not work, do you get any error messages ... ?
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them for help  (we won't know why it'sappearing) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    Backup and restore your software via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a NEW device. If this solves it, that means there is some corruption in your backup file. If the problem is still there, you should take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • MY PREVIOUS MAC HARD DRIVE CRASHED. WHY CAN'T I SYNC MY IPHONE PHOTOS TO MY NEW MACBOOK?!?!?! SERIOUSLY. APPLE.

    This is UNACCEPTABLE.  When a computer hard drive crashes, you can't do anything about it.  Now I have a ton of photos on my iphone that I just can't get off it when I want to sync it with my newly purchased Macbook Air. 
    This is one area where controlling everything end-to-end is too much.  Let us get to the **** raw data files where we need too (like the Macbook allows you to do that).  COME ON APPLE.  SERIOUSLY, do a **** upgrade and fix this crap.

    You can get your photos off your phone.  If they are all in Camera Roll just import them to your new computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083).  If some of them were synced to your iphone from your computer (i.e., in photo library) just use an app like PhotoSync and send them to your new computer wirelessly.  For that matter, you can sync your phone with your new computer without losing your data and settings if you carefully follow this guide: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.  Your only issue will be non-purchased music on your phone which is not in your new iTunes library, which will require 3rd party software such as Touch Copy to transfer from your phone to iTunes (or you will have to rip you CDs again to import them).
