Unable to authorize new computer with correct Vendor ID
Okay so a few months ago i purchased a new computer and installed Adobe Digital Editions on it, I haven't been able to access my books on this new computer as they are registered to a kalahari.com vendor under this email address. I hope the following gives a bit more insight into what I am getting at:
Screenshot of authorization information on old computer: http://i59.tinypic.com/sc4xux.jpg
Screenshot of authorization information on new computer: http://i57.tinypic.com/2vtayp0.jpg
I only made an Adobe account with this email address once I purchased my new computer so SOMEHOW my old computer was authorized WITHOUT an Adobe account but with this email address.
I would also like to note that Kalahari is not under the list of vendors that I can select to authorize using a vendor ID.
ANY help would be much appreciated as these books are very expensive and I need to start reading them for source material.
Authorization
iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar.
For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.

Unable to correctly authorize a computer with new Apple ID
I had to ditch my old Apple ID as it was shared with a person that I no longer live with. I registered a new Apple ID and using a new computer with my previous phone. I can sync the phone fine, but can't transfer purchased apps to iTunes. I authorize the computer and all seems well. I then attempt to transfer apps from my phone to iTunes and get an error message stating the computer isn't authorized. Any ideas? I've authorized/deauthorized many times and it seems to work until I attempt to transfer apps over.
If the book was bought with your account then it will be tied to your account so you will need to authorise your account on it via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option.

Several of my authorized pc laptops and desktops have completely died over the years, and have no way to deauthorize iTunes on them. Now I am unable to synch purchases on my Iphone to new computer with iTunes because I already have 5 computers authorized. What can be done?
Deauthorise all to reset to zero, then authorize again.
Following quote from Apple Support:
If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/). -

I tried to authorize a new computer with Windows 8 for my iTunes acct. Per iTunes Help, there is an "authorize computer" prompt in the menu selection on iTunes store website. I can find no such listing. I have two computers linked to my account so I know that adding another one would be ok. Any suggestions?
Press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer.

I just bought a new computer with windows 8. I have 2 other computers (windows 7) authorized for itunes. When I go to manage your account the only choice I am give is to deauthorize all computers. There is no place from which to authorize this new computer or to deauthorize the 1 computer that is dead rather than both. Suggestions appreciated
To authorize the Windows 8 computer, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.
It isn't possible to individually deauthorize a computer which is dead or which you don't have either physical or network access to.

Unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8
unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8
states this app unable to run on this PCHello jgrn76,
It sounds like you are getting an error stating that the iTunes installer cannot be run on your computer. I would try downloading the 64 bit version of iTunes from here:
iTunes 11.1.3 for Windows (64-bit)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
If issues persist when trying to install it, I would try running through the steps in the article named:
Issues installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1926
Otherwise, would you mind elaborating a bit on what the error message says, word for word?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

We had ADE on a system whose hard drive was dying and becomming unusable. I replace the old hard drive with a new one and resinstalled everything. I was able to extract the My Digital Editions Folder from the original drive and copied it to the new drive. I then installed the latest ADE. When we attempt to authorize the new ADE install on the new harddrive we see the dreaded "You can only authorize this computer with an Adobe ID that hasn’t previously been used to authorize any other computer or mobile devices. Please try again."
How can we get back running on the new disk?

I am unable to play certain songs since itunes wants me to authorize the computer with an old email address I had when I first bought the songs. I don't remember that password and when I use my present Apple id and password it doesn't authorize the computer to play those songs. How do I get these songs authorized since there are a lot of them?
Purchases are always tied to the account from which they were purchased.

How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer with Windows 8?
How can I install Photoshop Elements 11 on my new computer with Windows 8?
if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version. -
