No. While your computer is deauthorized you lose the ability to play or transfer protected media. Reauthorize the machines you actively use and all will be well.

Missing Deauthorize all Itunes option I am trying to use music on my laptop. It says i already have used my 5 devices. I tried signing in on my mac mini and I do not have the option to deauthorize all. It just states "Computer authorizations: One machine is authorized to play content purchased with this account." Any other way I can deauthorize the devices without using Itunes/Music?
