Hello,
My understanding is that in order to authorize your computer you must have an email. When I try to authorize my computer with my email it tells me it cannot do it. So I went to check a file that I was trying to authorize it say the ID is just plain old "rwquiem". I check my other files and the id is my full email address ****@ aol.com. Can someone please help me with this.

By the way, in any future responses, I suggest that you do not include personal information. You will notice that the moderators have already edited your first post.
It's always a bad idea to put personal information onto a public forum. The ne'er-do-wells will take an unhealthy interest in such information.
I've had a think about this and realised that in the screenshot that you originally posted (since removed), it showed a song that required authorisation, rather than your computer. There is an ongoing issue whereby some songs repeatedly request authorisation and the advice at the the moment is to delete the song and re-download it.
Perhaps it's the email address that causing the issue for everyone, I don't think much investigation has gone into it.
Before deleting the song, check to make sure it's still available in the iTunes Store (because they aren't always). If you have any issues with re-downloading the song, or if the situation continues, ask the store for assistance. There is a link at the bottom of the iTunes Store page named "Email iTunes Support".
Not "an" email, but the same email that you originally used to purchase the music.
I've been using the same email for years. I just don't understand why the ID on the song I want to play is just the first part of the email I've been using for years, and I can't play the song.
Thanks, I will try this and get back to you.
