My Apple ID has seen a lot. I’ve used a lot of Macs and iOS devices over the years, and reviewed a whole bunch more. As a result, I’ve gotten some insight into all the lists Apple keeps about your personal constellation of Apple hardware. It’s a bit confusing, since there are multiple lists, with different restrictions, measuring different things! Here are the ways the Apple counts what you’ve got–and what it lets you do with those lists.
iTunes authorizations
When Apple launched the iTunes Music Store in 2003, you could only play iTunes music on three different computers, but an unlimited number of iPods. In short order, that number was increased to five computers. Apple dropped digital-rights management from music sales in 2009, but the restriction still exists for other digital media Apple sells, most notably video.
If you choose Account > View my Account in iTunes, iTunes will tell you how many Computer Authorizations you have. This number is the number of Macs or PCs that have explicitly authorized iTunes. To authorize or deauthorize your Mac, look at the Account: Authorizations submenu. (Trying to play a DRM-controlled file like a purchased movie will also bring up the authorization dialog box, forcing you to log in before you can play the file.)
Once your Mac is authorized, it will be able to play copy-protected videos, both in iTunes and in QuickTime. If you’re ready to pull your hair out because you don’t have five Macs but Apple says you’ve reached your limit, you can give up and start from scratch–once per year you can press the Deauthorize All button and then reauthorize your computers one at a time.
If you want a list of those five computers, though, there isn’t one. Not quite. Instead, you need to find a list of all your authorized iTunes devices…
iTunes in the Cloud
“iTunes in the Cloud” is a weird phrase, one of the many perplexing phrases you’ll find in the complex back corridors of iCloud. In your account screen in iTunes, you’ll find an iTunes in the Cloud section that allows you to see all the devices you’ve authorized for connection with copy-protected digital media from Apple. Just click the Manage Devices button and you’ll be presented with a list.
From the resulting screen, you can see every device that’s been authorized for playing copy-protecting media, with both its type (iPad, iPhone, Mac) and the unique name you gave it. (This is a good time for me to put in a plug for you to name every device you own something unique. Coming to this screen and seeing “iPhone (Jason’s iPhone)” listed three times is not helpful.) It also tells you when you associated each device with your Apple ID, which can be helpful in pinpointing which device is which, in case you’re not sure.
This is where the old “five Macs and unlimited iPods” has gone. The new limit is 10 devices total, including iOS devices, with a maximum of five of them being computers. If you ask me, this number is too low, and Apple needs to get its media partners to open things up a little bit more.
According to Apple, a device is added to this screen when you try to download old purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store; when you turn on Automatic Downloads or Family Sharing; or when you subscribe to iTunes Match. If you run out of room, one option would be to use Family Sharing to create a second account for some of your devices–and if you’ve got a large family, you’re going to run into this limit in a hurry, so take advantage of that feature. It may not be perfect, but it’s better than not being able to use a bunch of features on some of your devices.
Another quirk of this list is that you can only associate a device with a different Apple ID once every 90 days. So if you move your child’s iPad to their own Apple ID, you’ll need to hold it for 90 days before selling it to someone else, or they won’t be able to log in to iTunes. This kind of stinks, but it’s a limitation that’s designed to prevent cycling many devices through different Apple IDs for piracy or fraud purposes.
If the Remove button is grayed out, this is a sign that your device has been actively connected to your Apple ID in the last month. Go to that device and sign out of iTunes in order to activate that Remove button.
The Apple ID device list
But there is probably no more comprehensive list of Apple devices than the one you’ll find in your Apple ID device list. If you’ve logged into your Apple ID from a device, you’ll find it at appleid.apple.com. Just log into the Apple ID site and look in the Devices sub-section, and you’ll see all the devices currently associated with your Apple ID.
This view is a lot friendlier than the one in iTunes. It’s got pictures, specific model numbers, names, whether it’s enrolled in Apple Pay, and–if you click on them–OS versions and serial numbers. From here you can also remove devices from your Apple ID, though they’ll just reappear if they are currently running and logged in.
Before I switched to Apple’s new two-factor authentication, every time I used Apple’s old two-step authentication system, it prompted me with a list of devices to use for authentication–most of which were old devices I hadn’t logged into in months or even more than a year. I was always baffled about where that list was coming from and how to remove old devices from it, but it turns out that the Apple ID website is the answer. Once I pruned out my old devices, that list started to make sense.
In any event, once I found the Devices list on the Apple ID site, I felt I finally had a handle on my devices–almost. It’s funny, but this list isn’t completely comprehensive either: My wife’s laptop, which is authorized with my Apple ID in iTunes, does not show up here. Oh well. There’s more work Apple needs to do here, but the simple functionality Apple ID site encourages me that things are moving in the right direction.
A hacker group called AntiSec said it has compromised 12 million Apple iOS Unique Device IDs (UDIDs) and personal information from Apple product owners — and there's a good chance your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch devices could be at risk.
Apple Unique Device Identifiers (UDID) — which is a sequence of 40 letters and numbers specific to an Apple device — don't contain too much information by themselves, but when coupled with other information such as iTunes passwords, billing addresses and payment data, it could pose some risks for users.
AntiSec allegedly posted one million of the hacked IDs on the site Pastebin, along with a detailed description of how the hackers allegedly obtained the IDs from the FBI. The hackers said the data was taken from the laptop of a FBI staffer.
“During the second week of March 2012, a Dell Vostro notebook, used by Supervisor Special Agent Christopher K. Stangl from FBI Regional Cyber Action Team and New York FBI Office Evidence Response Team was breached using the AtomicReferenceArray vulnerability on Java, during the shell session some files were downloaded from his Desktop folder one of them with the name of ‘NCFTA_iOS_devices_intel.csv’ turned to be a list of 12,367,232 Apple iOS devices including Unique Device Identifiers (UDID), user names, name of device, type of device, Apple Push Notification Service tokens, zipcodes, cellphone numbers, addresses, etc,” claims Antisec.
It's uncertain at this time what, if true, the FBI and the DOJ were doing with 12 million UDIDs. Note: The FBI has since denied that it was hacked and said it never obtained any files with Apple UDIDs.
According to a spokesperson for password security firm LastPass, identity theft could result from the situation.
'The biggest concern is that the Pastebin indicates that UDID, user name, name of the device, push tokens, zipcodes, cell phone numbers, address were part of the original leak. That's not what was publicly posted, but it's clear that user data is floating out there,' LastPass said. 'Knowing this personal information, what Apple devices you have and their IDs, the most immediate concern is identity theft.'
Another possible threat is social engineering: 'If someone knows you have an iPhone and has your cell phone number, address, the UDID of your device, a phone call from a person purporting to be from Apple with information only Apple should have asking for even more information could be an issue,' LastPass said.
As of May 2012 — and originally announced in September 2011 — Apple started rejecting apps that keep track of devices via its unique UDID due to security concerns. This means that the risk has been significantly trickled off in the past few months.
“Since AntiSec removed all the personal data from the data they released, this hack doesn’t present much risk to end users,' said Andrew Storms, director of security operations for nCircle, a compliance auditing firm that works with companies such as Facebook and Mastercard. 'UDIDs in isolation aren’t a big deal. In fact, Apple used to permit apps to spew UDIDs all over the place, so there’s a lot of UDID data already in the public domain. For awhile, there were a lot of apps using UDID and personal data to track users activity and selling it to advertisers.'
The good news is that it's easy to check if your Apple product is among those compromised. First, you will need to learn your Apple device's UDID. To do so, plug your device into your computer and launch iTunes. On the left side of the screen, the device should pop up — click to open it. Specs such as iPhone name, capacity and a serial number should appear. Clicking on the serial number should make the UDID appear. The website WhatsMyUDID.com has a graphical tutorial for those that are confused. Users can also download various apps in the App Store to find and email their UDID.
Want to see if you're affected? LastPass has set up a secure tool that allows you to check to see if your iPhone UDID information was among the one million leaked.
To check, click here. However, if your device's UDID doesn't pop up, it could still be among the other millions compromised and not posted online. Users can also search for their device using the first five digits of the UDID using this site.
But according to Storms, you may be out of luck if your device's UDID has been leaked: “If your UDID has been leaked in this hack, there’s not much you can do unless you want to spring for a new phone,' Storms told Mashable. 'It’s pretty likely that your UDID is already in the public domain.'
Meanwhile, LastPass advises that if your Apple device ID was on the list, 'you should strongly consider signing up for a credit monitoring service.'
