don't see deauthorize all I am trying to authorize my (relatively) new MacBook Pro to play my music stored in iTunes/Apple Music. It's been a number of years since I've used iTunes. I keep getting a message that I have 5 computers authorized and I need to deauthorize them. I can't find the option listed for "deauthorize all" and I am going around in circles. Any way to fix this?

See the instructions in Authorize or deauthorize your computer for iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support

Note that if you no longer have some of them you will need to deauthorize all and then reauthorize the ones you still have.
