How do I Authorise Apple Music on my Mac?
Apple Music is a great music streaming service that offers a lot of great features, but in order to use it, you need to authorise your computer. In this article, we’ll show you how to do that.
First, open the Apple Music app and sign in with your Apple ID.
Next, click on the "Authorise this Computer" button.
A window will pop up asking for your permission. Click on the "Authorise" button.
Apple Music will now be authorised on your computer. You can start using it right away.
If you’re trying to play music on your Mac and you get an error message that says "iTunes is not authorized to play the requested song," it means that your computer is not authorized to access the song’s copyright.
There are a few possible reasons why this might happen. One possibility is that you didn’t buy the song from the iTunes Store. Another possibility is that you bought the song from the iTunes Store, but you’re not logged in to the same account on your Mac as you were when you bought the song.
If you didn’t buy the song from the iTunes Store, you can authorize your computer by clicking on the "Authorize This Computer" link in the Advanced tab of the iTunes Preferences window. If you bought the song from the iTunes Store, but you’re not logged in to the same account on your Mac, you can authorize your computer by logging in to the same account on your Mac.
If you’ve tried both of these solutions and you’re still getting the error message, it might mean that the song is not authorized for playback on your computer. If this is the case, you can’t play the song on your Mac.

How do I Authorise an Account on my Mac?
Some of the best features on Macs are the ones that Apple doesn’t shout about as much as they do the headline features. One such under-the-radar feature is the ability to authorise accounts on your Mac. This article will show you how to do just that.
To authorise an account on your Mac, you’ll need to open up the ‘System Preferences’ application. This can be found in the dock, or by searching for it in the Spotlight menu. Once you’ve found it, click on the ‘Users & Groups’ icon.
You should now see a list of users on your Mac. To authorise an account, click on the padlock icon in the bottom-left corner and enter your administrator password.
Next, click on the ‘+’ icon in the bottom-left corner and enter the username and password for the account you wish to authorise. Click on the ‘Create’ button and you’re done!
If you’ve ever added music to your iTunes library from sources other than the iTunes Store—perhaps ripped CDs or songs you downloaded from a friend—you may have run into a problem where some or all of those songs are marked as "unauthorized." This means that Apple doesn’t recognize the song’s copyright owner, and you can’t play the song or sync it to your device.
There are a few ways to fix this problem. The first is to try to find the song’s legitimate owner and get them to authorize the song for use on iTunes. This can be tricky, as you’ll need to track down the song’s copyright owner and get them to sign a form granting permission.
If you can’t find the song’s owner, or if they’re unwilling to authorize the song, you can try to remove the authorization yourself. This is a bit more complicated, but it’s the only way to get songs that are stuck in the "unauthorized" state.
Read on for step-by-step instructions on how to fix unauthorized songs on iTunes.
If you’re concerned about who is accessing your music library, you can view a list of authorized devices for your iTunes account. This will show you all of the devices that have been authorized to access your music, apps, books, and other iTunes content.
To view the list of authorized devices, open iTunes and go to the Store menu. Select View My Account and sign in with your iTunes account username and password. Scroll down to the Authorized Devices section and you’ll see a list of all the devices that have been authorized to access your content.
If you want to revoke access for any of the devices on the list, just click the Revoke Access button next to the device. This will remove the device from the list and it will no longer be able to access your iTunes content.
Note that if you change your password, any devices that have been authorized with the old password will no longer have access. So if you’re concerned about someone accessing your account, be sure to revoke access for any devices that are no longer in use.
When you try to play a song, video, or other content from your iTunes library, you may see a message that says "iTunes needs to authorize this computer for playback." This means that your computer is not authorized to play the content.
There are a few possible reasons why this may happen:
You may have reached the maximum number of authorized devices.
You may have reached the maximum number of authorized computers.
The content may not be authorized in your region.
Your computer may not be connected to the Internet.
Your account may be in use on another computer.
To authorize your computer, you will need to enter your iTunes password. If you don’t know your password, you can reset it.
If you continue to see the "iTunes needs to authorize this computer for playback" message, try these steps:
Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
Make sure that you are signed in to iTunes with the same account that is authorized for the content.
If you have reached the maximum number of authorized devices or computers, you will need to deauthorize some of them.
