Hello there, Brian.
It sounds like you want to authorize your MacBook Pro for iTunes content. The following Knowledge Base article provides some great instruction on how to do just that:
Authorize your computer in iTunes - Apple Support
How do I authorize a computer?
- Open iTunes on the computer you want to authorize.
- Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
You might need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows. In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.- Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
If iTunes asks you to authorize your computer again, it won't use a new authorization. iTunes uses the same authorization for the same computer.
What happens if I run out of authorizations?
If one of your 5 authorizations is on a computer you don't use much anymore, deauthorize it. If you've sold or given away a computer that used one of your 5 authorizations, you'll need to deauthorize all of your computers and then re-authorize each one you still use.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.
