How can I reauthorize my computer? There is nothing for me to click on so I don't know what to do.

Since the iOS7 upgrade I have had nothing but issues with my iPhone 4. I have redone everything I can, took iTunes off the PC and reloaded. I deauthorized all computers and went to re-authorize my laptop and there is no place to click to reauthorize it. HELP! About ready to throw this all out the window!

iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.2, Windows 8 PC

Authorization and Deauthorization


Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.


Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.


In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.



More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)


You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.


1. Open iTunes on a computer

2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."

3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.

4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".

5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.


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.
