Is there any way to fool the iTunes Authorization system so you can have one computer take up multiple authorizations? I want to do this from my windows machine though. I have 2 out of 5 authorizations taken on machines I no longer own. I want to max it out to 5 so I can use the deauthorize all option. Is there sometihing you can change in the registry so it will make iTunes think you are using another computer? Thanks,

Why not just deauthorize all right now? You can then re-authorize the computers you still own. No need to muck around with anything more complicated than that.

Or, if you can't, send customer support an email and they can do it for you.
