No idea what you mean by "full authorisation", it's just called "activation" plain & simple.

if you are experiencing FSX activation problems, see this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/960481

ok just activation. I have read that since Microsoft no longer supports fsx that there is no person/site/phone to approve the activation code process and make it happen . Leaving you with fsx locked in a 30 minute demo mode without full utilization of features. Am I incorrect in this scenario?

Just been researching the issues you raised. It seems that online activation of FSX is no longer possible (activation server no longer exists) but you should still be able to activate it by telephone (the phone number will appear in the activation wizard).

By the way, the online multiplayer feature is no longer possible because the server operator (GameSpy) has shut down the service.
