Given I think there are account related issues here I recommend you contact Apple Support for more help than I can give.

Sign out of the iTunes Store. Close iTunes. Delete the file iTunes Library Genius.itdb in your iTunes folder. Start iTunes, sign into the iTunes Store, check that your computer is authorised, then try to enable iCloud Music Library once more.

Windows or Mac? On a Mac you would also need to empty the trash to ensure iTunes isn't still connected to the old file.

Try holding down Ctrl+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command (Mac) as you launch iTunes to open it in safe mode. This may fix certain problems in the library, which could potentially help.

I assume you have an active subscription to iTunes Match. I suspect you're going to need to contact iTunes Support to resolve this given the problem exists across multiple devices. Even so I'm not sure why you're having trouble with Genius. Do you have third party anti-virus software? If so try temporarily disabling this. Ideally you would exclude the iTunes folder from real time scanning. You can also try right-clicking your iTunes shortcut and using the Run as Administrator option.
