TS2446 Apple ID on more than 5 computers

I have upgraded my computer bios & Apple ID states that I have registered more than 5 computers.
Without it, how can I register that computer & update my IPOD?

You will need to deauthorise your account on one or more computer before you can re-authorise it on that one. Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but as you have multiple computers authorised then you can 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.

Can I have Apple TV on more than one tv?

Can I have Apple TV on more than one tv and can I use one netflix subscription on both tvs (connected to Apple TV)?

You'd really need one AppleTV per TV - as for Netflix check your subscription package, in UK I can play on 2 devices with my current subscription or 4 for a higher fee.
AppleTv only has a single video out, so even if you relay the output of AppleTV to 2 TVs it would show the same content.

I did NOT authorize my Apple ID on more than 5 computers.

So why is it saying that? And why can't I authorize my new computer?
Both my old computers (Mac) don't work anymore, so I can't deauthorize either of them. But it wasn't more than 2 computers.

De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

HT5622 Can you use an apple id on more than one device?

I'm currently having difficulties posting messages to my iPad and iPhone. I used to be able to use one ID for both devices with iOS 6. Now with iOS 7 it seems to have difficulties using one ID across multiple devices. I hope this is not how it was designed. Any advice?

You can use your Apple ID for up to ten devices, up to five of which can be computers.

Can you use the same Apple ID on more than one MacBook Pro for updates and applications?

We just got a few new MacBook Pro's and when I went to install updates it said I need to make an Apple ID. Can you use the same Apple ID and email address for that Apple ID on multiple machines, or do I need them both to be unique per machine? I'm not sure how that works when you have multiple machines.

An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. So you can use the same Apple ID for up to 10 Macs associated with it.
To create an Apple ID you need to enter your full name and your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account.

Can I link one Apple ID to more than one Apple devices?

Hello. I have a fifth generation iPod Touch and I am considering getting an Apple iPhone. I already have an Apple ID because of the iPod Touch. Is it possible for me to link the same Apple ID to the iPhone, while still connected to the iPod Touch? Or would I have to create a different Apple ID for the iPhone?

Can you sync the apple watch to more than one phone?

Say I wanted to leave my phone at home. Could I sync my apple watch to my husbands phone but still get my texts etc???

If you're within about 20-30 feet, sync will be via Bluetooth. If the phone is on a wifi network, you can be farther away: exactly how far varies according to the quality of wifi, walls etc.

Downloading mavericks and it's been on the apple logo for more than 2 hours

I started downloading mavericks and I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and it's been at the apple logo with the greyish white screen with the turning wheel for over 2 hours I'm not sure if that's normal. It would be great if someone who had a familiar problem I'm thinking about rebooting it if that's a good idea?

IPad Air is shipped later than announcement on the Apple Store Website (more than 24 hrs) and there is effect my holiday plan

I plan to go to my native place on 10/04/2014 and I would like to buy the iPad Air for my mother.
I accessed to Apple Store Thailand and found that there are announce on the website as "Shipping within 24 hrs".
So I decided to place the order for iPad Air on 2/04/2014 at the night (Thailand Time)
after all process was completed there are mentioned the Delivery Date is 10/04/2014
but in the today evening 4/04/2014 the process is just changed from "Preparing for shipment" to "Shipped"
and the Delivery Date is postponed from 10/04/2014 to 11/04/2014.
So the main point is I am plainning to take the iPad Air to my mother and I will leave from the place that I mentioned for deliver the iPad Air.
How can I do for received your product before 11/04/2014?

This is a user-to-user forum for technical support. There isn't anything anyone here can tell you about your shipment, or anything we can do to resolve this for you.
you should contact the Apple Online store (see the lower right of the store page for the phone number).

Can I sync apple tv to more than one itunes libraries?

Hi
I have two different itunes libraries on my laptop - one that connects to an external hard drive and the other that has my laptop's hard drive as the source. My default library for my appletv is the library that is synched with my external hard drive. But, I sometimes rent movies on my laptop, using my laptop itunes library and want to synch those with my apple tv. I can't figure out how to get it to find two different libraries. Is this possible??
Thanks
M

A rental movie is a bit different from files you buy. You can only watch it on the device it's on, you can't stream it. You would need to move it to your ATV first before you can watch it there, assuming it's in the iTunes library your ATV is synced with.

Can my Apple id support more than one iPhone for me?

That is... I got an phone for work use and in setting it up, it's asking for my Apple ID. I don't want that to affect my personal iPhone. Will that be a problem?
Thanks!

You can skip that step if you want. Then, later on, you can go into Settings and choose what you want to use the Apple ID for. For example, you might want want to sign into the iTunes Store, and in to Messages and FaceTime so you can receive messages on the work phone. But you might not want to sign into iCloud or else your data from your work phone will go to the personal phone and vice versa.
