Nope, tried all the items on that list. I can't find the "authorize computer" link or menu on the store page like it says there is. I even deauthorized all computers and still no place found to "authorize".

If you are using iTunes 11 for Windows, open iTunes then Alt-S to get the Store menu and then Authorize This Computer.
