When I try to authorize my computer for the Ipad, Itunes tells me that I have authorized 5 computers already. Today I have De-authorized ALL and I still get this message. I don't know what to do next.

I de-authorized ALL, but when I plug my ipad in and try to back it up, Itunes tells me that my account has been used on too many computers. This is the only apple device that does that. I have several (phones, touch, etc). Because of this I tunes tells me that I will loose all content on the I pad as well as apps. Why is this happening. Apple has some of the least helpful tech support of any computer oriented company I have ever used. Why I should have to pay for this poor service, I am uncertain. I seems like I can just upgrade the OS to 7 but I would rather not loose the content or have to write eveything down that is on it now just to reload it all after. Maybe I am reading this all wrong. Please let me know.

Not it. Thanks. I tried it, so thanks for the tip, but I get the same error message. That I need to authorize this computer to get the purchases. I guess it's not really an error message. But It will not let me proceed any further. Once again I have deauthorized and this is the only computer that is authorized for this account.
Then
Then and last
Pretty annoying. Any ideas?

  • I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please

    I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please help.

    This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
    or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
    Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
    or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
    And here is a great video tutorial on how to use the converter.

  • I plugged my iphone in for the first time to my computer. I synced it with my itunes and it deleted everything. Now I don't know what to do because I did not even have the chance to back it up! everything is gone please please help me!

    When you saw this dialog box, did you choose "Erase and Sync"?
    If you did, your iPhone was erased, then your iTunes Library was transferred to it. If your iTunes Library was empty, your iPhone will be also.
    Your previously purchased music, apps, books, and videos are still yours. You just have to download them again.

  • Iget this message when i try to authorize my computer E_AUTH_NOT_READY

    I get this message when i try to authorize my computer E_AUTH_NOT_READY

    You'd have got a reply quicker by searching the forum for E_AUTH_NOT_READY
    Anyway ...

    Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
    Uninstalling and reinstalling does not help, and indeed installation can even trigger this state.
    Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
    A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
    Another is  "E_AUTH_NOT_READY"
    This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
    Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
    In extreme cases on the mac, the following extra step has helped some people.  Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash. If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1265248?tstart=0

  • When i try to authorize by computer its saying that "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store."

    When i try to authorize by computer its saying that "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store." please someone help me

    I had this same problem today. I have been battleing it for the past 5 hours, but it worked. You have to create a new account though.
    What I did was go to iTunes and click Sign in, then made a new account.
    But I didn't want to put in a Credit Card number, so what I did was
    Open iTunes
    Go to iTunes Store
    Search a totaly free app. (I used Google Earth)
    Click on the app from the list
    Click the button under the icon that says "Free App"
    Then it will ask you to sign in or make a new account, Select Make New Account
    Follow All the steps on all the pages.
    When you get to the page that you select your Credit Card, check "None"
    Fill in the rest of the info and then click Complete
    Verify your email
    I hope this helped you. Strangely, you can only select "None" Under Credit Card if you do it this way. Must be some iTunes bug.

  • Hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive.  When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?

    hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive.  When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?

    Yes because that information is not located on the hard-drive of your new mac! If it is purchased content from the store, than this issue isn't as bad as it looks!
    Here is a link explaining how to get your previously purchased content back:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    You also want to authorize your Apple ID account on the computer by following these instructions as well:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1730
    Basically this link explains to go to the top left corner of your screen where you will see file, edit, view etc! Click on Store in that section and click on authorize this computer, also you want to make sure that the computer will not automatically sync by going to iTunes in the top left corner, just to the right of the apple symbol if iTunes is selected, and go to prefrences, and here you will see back up! Right under the back-ups has an option explaining to prevent devices from automatically syncing which is good cause you may be able to transfer your purchases from there which will put your content into the computer, and if that happens than we don't lose anything
    Hopefully I was of some help:)

  • My MBP didn't recognise my password, started it in safe mode, I can see my files, but I don't know what to do next, as the image of reset password isn't selectable. I just moved from PC. Need help please...

    Safe mode is not what you want in this case. Reboot to recovery mode - hold down cmd-R as the Mac reboots. Go past the language-selection screen, click the Utilities menu, then Terminal. Type:
    resetpassword
    Followed by the return key, and follow the prompts. Reboot normally when done.

    If the Shared folder exists
    Open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities).Warning: This step involves modifying permission settings by entering commands in the Terminal application.

  • Hello apple community i had just updated my iphone 4 to the newest ios version 7.0.6 and my iphone is getting no reception i don't know what to do please help me !!!!!!

    hello apple community i had just updated my iphone 4 to the newest ios version 7.0.6 and my iphone is getting no reception i don't know what to do please help me !!!!!!

    Hi Shohambox,
    Please the first thing you should do is to restart your device. Go the sleep wake button and hold down on it for 4-5 seconds waiting for the 'slide to shut off' message to appear. Once the device is turned off go ahead and restart the device. If this does not resolve the issue then go to the area on the front of your device to the app that reads 'settings' from settings>general>reset>reset network settings. Clicking on reset network settings will not erase any data only will reset the network settings apart of your iphone., Once the reset has completed you will then need to go back to settings to wi/fi and plug in the name and password of your wi/fi prior to using it.
    Good luck, Friend.
