How do i fix a song on the ITunes server that is corrupted?
I recently had a problem with ITUNEs messing up my album titles and songs. I deleted all my locally downloaded music, created a new library and started downloading all my music again. There are about a dozen songs, that I purchased from ITunes that will not download. The message i get is the song is corrupted.

Thank you for the Update.
Three Thoughts:
Security Software is unnecessary on a mac, as it just get in the way. This is a pure example how of why it gets in the way.
Use an uninstaller to uninstall it. Be certain get the uninstaller from the developer and nowhere else. Getting it elsewhere may result in Malware (Malicious Software) getting installed.
Employers sometimes require a VPN connection. So, if this is just a VPN connection, that is required by your employer, and is nothing of Security Software, then disable the VPN when making purchases.

Where were these Purchased?
Are you in a different region than you were when you purchased these? Purchased items are only playable in the regions in which they were purchased. So, that would be why you are getting this prompt to purchase the song again.
Thank you for the reply. I have tried all of the recommended fixes. When i try to download from the music catalog, it doesnt give me the option to download, only purchase the song again.
