How do you deauthorize music purchased from iTunes Music Store for a particular computer, if the computer is completely dead? (eta: Computer in question is a PC.)

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have an Apple store nearby. I'll take her over this week.
Thanks!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Be sure to make a reservation: [link]

Depending on when you go, there can be a wait for the Genius Bar. At the Chicago store they have a Powerbook at the bar where you sign in. Then they call you when your turn comes.

Or that. Here in Chicago, they told me I'd only need a reservation when they were busy, like on a Saturday.

The reservations app tells me they can't help me because of high volume -- I can't tell by reading if non Pro Care people can reserve.

IIRC, non Pro Care people can put themselves on the list online, as long as its the same day. You need Pro Care to make an advance reservation.

Hey. New board.
ita, I don't know which Apple Store you're going to, but I never had to wait more than an hour or so at the Pasadena one. It may have gotten worse, though. The SoHo one is much worse (despite having something like 15 times the number of "Geniuses")

The SoHo store is to be avoided.
TekServe is so much better, although they can get quite backed up too.

Hey. New board.
Oh? Thanks, Tom, I'll keep that in mind. Although this computer is out of warranty, so I probably won't ever end up wanting to do support that costs anything - does TekServe do free consultation for little things, like store de Apple does?

Yes. Apple more or less ripped off the whole Genius Bar concept from TekServe.
