I recently just downloaded a movie to iTunes, but it will not download unless it is authorized. I followed the instructions through the pop-up notification and went to the account menu on iTunes to try and get the authorization out of the way, but there was no drop-down menu or anything I could do to authorize my Mac book. Any suggestions?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.0
re: "...and went to the account menu on iTunes ..."
There is no iTunes app on a Mac that has Big Sur (macOS 11). Go to the Music app, the Apple TV app or the Apple Books app. See the following from: Authorize or deauthorize your computer for iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support
How to authorize a Mac or PC
Before you authorize a Mac, update it to the latest version of macOS. On a PC, update to the latest version of iTunes for Windows.
If you're asked to authorize your computer again, it won't use a new authorization. Apple ID uses the same authorization for the same computer.re: "...and went to the account menu on iTunes ..."
