If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:

  1. Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
  2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
  3. Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
  4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.

Sandy,


Authorization and Deauthorization

Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.

You may only do this once per year.

After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.

If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us

Hello, you obviously have trouble reading. You completely missed the point. The question was asking what to do if you already used your once a year deauthorization ability and then reached the limit again. This is a real concern and your stock, oblivious response helps nothing.
