    Default Will my music still work after I deauthorize and then reauthorize my iTunes???

    Hey guys.

    I recently got a new hard drive for my computer because we had some major issues with the other and it was practically ruined. But we were able to recover most of our stuff, including all my music.

    I added all my music onto a new iTunes on my new hard drive. But when I try to play the majority of it, a message pops up saying that "This computer is not authorized to play... Would you like to authorize it?" I type in my password, and then a message pops up saying that "You cannot authorize more than 5 computers."

    Since I'm not sure what/where 3 of the 5 computers are, I can't deauthorize only one. So I figured that I would just have to deauthorize all 5 at once.

    My question: If I deauthorize all 5 computers at once and then reauthorize only the 2 computers I wish to, will all my music still be there and will it work?

    If anyone has done this or knows any information on this, it would be much appreciated! I just got a new iPod and I'm leaving for vacation soon and I'd really prefer to have all my music loaded onto that for the trip.

    Thanks!

    Yes I think if you do deauthorize all of the machines and then re authorize those two you should be fine.
