associated with Apple ID purchases


Manage the list of devices that can download and play items that you bought with your
Apple ID.

Add a device
When you subscribe to Apple services or buy content from Apple, the device that you're using
automatically becomes associated with your Apple ID.

You might want to remove an associated device in these situations:

If you reach your limit of associations and want to add a new device.
If you can't redownload purchases from the App Store, Apple TV app, the iTunes Store, and other Apple
services.
If you want to sell or give away an associated device.

Use a Mac or PC to find or remove your associated


devices
C. On your Mac, open the Apple Music app. Or on your PC, open iTunes for Windows.
H. From the menu bar, choose Account > View My Account. You might need to sign in with your Apple ID.
K. Click Manage Devices. If no devices are associated with your Apple ID, this section won't appear.

M. If you want to remove a device, click Remove. If you canʼt remove a device, sign out of your Apple ID on
that device and try again. If you still can't remove it, you might need to wait up to 90 days to associate
the device with a different Apple ID.

More about associated devices


You can have ten devices (no more than five computers) associated with your Apple ID for purchases at
one time.

When you try to associate a device that was previously associated, you might notice a message that says,
"This device is associated with another Apple ID. You cannot associate this device with another Apple ID
for [number] days." You might need to wait up to 90 days to associate the device with a different Apple ID.

This list of associated devices is not the same as the list of devices that you're currently signed in to with
your Apple ID. You can find out where you're signed in on your Apple ID account page.
