Authorisation to Play Purchased Tracks from Downloads

I have several tracks from Different Albums that I Have purchased and Downloaded that state I do not have authorisation to Play. when I try to authorise the computer to play them It states that the computer is already Authorised. So the Problem is never solved. Can anyone Help.


Many Thanks

Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for store downloads typically indicates you have corrupt or incomplete copies. Backup and then delete the tracks that won't play from your library without hiding from your purchase history. Redownload using the cloud links that should remain, or close iTunes and reopen if they don't show up straight away. While downloading click the activity widget and turn off the option that allows for simultaneous downloads.


If that hasn't helped see If iTunes for Windows prompts you to authorize your computer when you try to play purchases - Apple Support.
