We have three computers in the house--2 crashed before I could deauthorize home sharing.  Now, with my new MacAir, the total computers in our household is 3 but home sharing will not allow me to add the other device.

We have three computers in the house (iMac, MacAir and the new MacAir I just received) in addition to 2 iPhones and 2 iPads.  2 Macbook Pros are no longer in use (both crashed before home sharing could be deauthorized) but now I have reached my maximum device allowance (5), even though only 2 computers are currently active.  How can I reset the authorized computer numbers?

You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. Otherwise you can "deauthorize all" from your iTunes account.
Open iTunes on a computer
From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

    My PC crashed.  My music was all recovered from my iPod, but my shuffle will not allow me to add/delete music.  I was considering restoring my shuffle, but how can I without deleting all music in my iTunes?  Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Restoring the iPod won't delete the content of the iTunes library. Back it up anyway.

  • Using Mac OSX Install Disc 1, I am not able to get any further than the Partition tab.  It allows me to select my hard drive selection, but will not allow me to make any other selections.  Does anyone know their way around this obstacle?  Thanks!

    Hello, The Hatter, I read about the 'trick' of backing up, erasing, and restoring too, but I figured it would take longer than defragmenting the disk.
    But the defragmentation process has just finished! so I'm gonna try to run Boot Camp again soon!
    Thanks for your helpfulness, anyway.
    And P.S. I didn't clone my system onto the external drive, I just inserted the Mac OS X Install CD, rebooted holding down the "C" key, and installed a fresh Snow Leopard system onto the predetermined partition. I will use that in cases of emergency, when my main/internal system becomes unusable.

  • HT201269 my iphone will not allow me to press the sync button, any suggestions

    my iphone will not allow me to press the sync button. It is showing as greyed out. Any suggestions ?

    I am having the same issue. After hunting around on the community boards for a while, I noticed that ZoneAlarm Firewall came up fairly often as causing issues with syncing. I re-activated the firewall that came bundled with my less-than-a-year old Windows 7 pc and completely uninstalled ZoneAlarm. I dragged and dropped one of my playlists to the iPhone 3GS and then most of my music then came back, but I am still unable to get all my custom ringtones (created in i ringer) to reload. I've tried dragging and dropping to no avail (I use "manually manage" because I add audio books from the library).
    Others have posted these same issues and the odds that we are all doing the same exact wrong thing seems astronomical - there must be an issue with the latest firmware update. Different iPhone versions, different OS on computers, PC v Mac - all having problems after the latest update. Coincidence? Hmmmm!
    If you do have ZoneAlarm, it might be worthwhile to change that...

  • HT201320 my vip will not allow me to add contacts. Suggestions?

    vip will not allow me to add contacts. Suggestions?

    If you open your Contacts app and do a search on that newly added contact, does it NOT appear?
    Try doing a device reboot and see if the contacts appears after.  Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.

  • Why is it that when I delete a song off my 4th generation I touch it will not allow me to add it again. I manage my music manually (no syncing). I can add a new song, but as soon as I delete it on my I touch, I can't put it back on.

    I never heard of that problem before. I I can suggest is the stand fixes:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
    The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
    Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

  • Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event

    Photos will not allow me to set the key picture for the album or event - it is set to grey !
    Anyone else had this and found why ?
    new PHOTO app replacing iPhoto bugs/ Problems OTHER PROBLEMS :
    - no longer has a five star rating system
    - my keywords for selecting albums are gone.
    - cannot copy location of one photo to another
    - cannot have an album with  keywords AND rating > a value
    - cannot set key photo of album/event
    - multi parameter search feature gone
    Anyone got any ideas how to get around this terrible downgrade of the software ?
    BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
    Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb  #@!$#@!@#!@#
    Thanks

    That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
    Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
    iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
    If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder.  And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3,  you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos.   It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
    If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
    See this User Tip:
    Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
    I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

  • Premiere Elements 12 will not allow me to add any more 'Default Text'

    Premiere Elements 12 will not allow me to add any more 'Default Text'. Being using it fine up until today! Created over 80 words so far for subtitles but for some reason it wont allow me today!!!

    Dave
    Thanks for the follow up. Interesting result.
    What is the specific Music Score that you used in the Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Mac Soundtrack that was limiting you in the number of words that could be included as text in the project's opened Titler?
    Please confirm
    a. Working in Expert workspace or Quick workspace?
    and
    b. Was the 12.1 Update in effect before and after you observed that the Music Score soundtrack removal resolved the issue of number of words limit in the Titler?
    and
    c. Did the Titler problem exist if you replace the Music Score soundtrack with a non Music Score music file?
    and
    d. If you moved the Music Score soundtrack to one of the numbered Audio Tracks, did the Titler problem exist?
    If you have no Music Score soundtrack in the project, create your title of 80 plus words in the Titler, close the Titler, and then bring the Music
    Score soundtrack to the project's Soundtrack, does that strategy work for you?
    The above information will help me to think about what happened in your case and give me more insight into how to prevent it happening to
    you in future projects.
    Thanks.

  • Ios 8.3 will not allow me to add a contact to group message

    ios 8.3 will not allow me to add a contact to group message.  When I touch "Details" on a group message (says "Group MMS" at the top), THERE IS NO OPTION TO ADD CONTACT.  Why not?  iPhone 6.

    I had tried that previously with no results. So, I changed the password with the provider. Next I resubmitted the ID and password, ignoring the Yahoo button, but instead choosing the Other button. It was successful. Sometimes it's necessary to change the playing field, rather than put up with the potholes. Thanks for your help.

  • I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top, it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library option and check the Selected Artist - on

    I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top,
    it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library
    option and check the Selected Artist … one.
    I have changed the Sync option to Manually sync, but that does not help.
    How can I change this to the second option?
    Thanks.

    There is a checkbox above those two options for how to sync.  It says Sync Music; it enables automatic syncing.  That box needs to be checked before you can select from the two options for how automatic syncing is performed.
    NOTE:  If the iPod is current set up to Manually manage music [and videos], checking that Sync Music box replaces its current content with content from your iTunes library, based on how automatic syncing is set up on that screen.
    So, if your goal is to add ONE playlist to an iPod that is managed manually, you do not want to do this because iTunes will erase the iPod's current content and replace it with just that ONE selected playlist (and whatever else you select on that Music settings screen).
    Instead, if the iPod currently uses the manual setting, you need to add playlists manually to the iPod (not use the automatic syncing setting).  Please post back with more details about your situation. 

  • HT202274 Apple ID has my old email address. It will not allow me to change the address and will not accept my password or ID questions.   I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite 10.10.1.  I also have an Apple ID that works with iTunes and would like to keep i

    Apple ID has my old email address. It will not allow me to change the address and will not accept my password or ID questions.   I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite 10.10.1.  I also have an Apple ID that works with iTunes and would like to keep it as my primary.

    To change the iCloud ID on your devices you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted (if using iOS 7), then sign back in with your current ID.
    If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, you will have to temporarily recreate it in order to delete the existing account.  To do this, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • HT201269 I am trying to restore an old back up to a new phone but it will not allow because it says the "old iphone" password is incorrect but the password I am using is the only password I have?? Help?  What does this mean?

    I am trying to restore an old iphone to a new iphone but it will not allow becaue it says the "old iphone" password is incorrect but the passwork I am using works for my ITunes account and is the only password I have..?? Please help!!  Thank you.

    When using the iPhone with the Windows OS, you need to have the Apple Mobile Device Service running. It should start automatically when you start the computer, but sometimes things happen. Use this support document to try and restart the service. See if that helps.

  • Input Text will not allow me to access the correct answer!

    Hi All
    i am trying to create a simple quiz in school. I have one test question which requires the answer to be -1.
    I have created Input text and assigned the variable answer for this question.
    I have a button with the following AS2 script:
    on (press, keyPress "<Enter>") {
        if(answer eq "-1" or answer eq "minus 1"
           or answer eq "Minus 1" or answer eq "Minus one" or answer eq "minus one")
        {_root.gotoAndStop(2)
        } else
        {_root.gotoAndStop(3)
    Firstly whatever you type the numerical keys are immobilised on the keyboard when the .SWF file is built
    Secondly I cannot enter the correct answer!! If I type in Minus 1 etc it goes to frame 3.
    I have tried flags rather than frame numbers - same problem.
    i have tried remaking the quiz as a  separate file.
    using CS4 and CS5 flash - windows 7 PC.
    Please help!!

Thanks for the reply. I had instances for all elements but had code on teh but (Instance Enter). I have tried your code with my instance names. The button is Q1 (I was going to add more if it worked). The vaiable name for the Insert text box is ans1 so I used the code below. I added the code to frame 1 in teh timeline. I think this is what you meant so a frame script as opposed to a buton script. i have always scriped buttons (very simple). I have played around with the trace(); function but i am not sure where to run it from. I have added it to the script below. I tried Q1 which is the button and ans1 (variable). It must be wrong as I cannot see any output. Last thing. Is it not right ot use eq and or?? I am using Actionscript 2.
The disabled keys is the same running the code on my mac and pc!
Q1.onRelease = function() {
    if(ans1.text == "-1" || ans1.text == "minus 1" || ans1.text == "Minus 1" || ans1.text == "Minus one" || ans1.text == "minus one") {
         _root.gotoAndStop(2)
     } else  {
         _root.gotoAndStop(3)
trace(Q1);
