I have an old iPad with a screen that does not work. I cannot ask Apple to dispose of it because it is not deauthorised. I cannot deauthorise it because I cannot see it in Music Account any longer. Now I am told to deauthorise ALL my devices, which I cannot do as I am working remotely. Does anyone have a better solution? Tempted to take a hammer to it.
iPad 2, iOS 9
