how can I authorize more than 5 computers?

With the purchase of new laptop, I have reached the limit of 5 authorized computers. However, only 2 are in use; the other 3 have been passed on to fellow employees. Their hard drives were completely erased, so there is no risk of anyone else using the authorized itunes accounts. How can I get additional authorizations?

Dell, Windows XP

You can't get more than five at any one time. But if you've reached five authorizations for that account, there will be a button in your iTunes Store account information that will allow you to deauthorize all systems associated with that account. Log into your iTunes Store account and you should see it. You can then reauthorize the computers you're using now.

Next time don't forget to deauthorize the systems before you let them out of your hands. You can only do the mass-deauthorization once per year.

Regards.
