I was curious if there is a way to see which iTunes accounts can play music on my computer.. is there a way?

Also, is there a way to see the mac address (or something) to see which computers are authorized to play songs from my account?

I'm pretty sure only Apple has access to that info. The best you can do is to see how many computers are authorized on any one account, but it doesn't tell you which computers. To do this, click on your account button in the upper righthand corner while viewing the iTunes Music Store, and enter your password.

That's kind of a strange question. I believe you can select any user name to be used, but the protected AAC will only work with selected accounts.

Is there something in particular you are trying to do?

I was on the account info page and it said my account was being used by 3 computers.. i use it on 2, my home/work computers. That means its either on my sister's or my gf's computer.. not sure which and they aren't around right now so i couldn't check.

I was also curious if they had ever authorized themselves on my computer because i would like to know that if i ever sell the computer.
