Cannot play downloaded songs off an album - getting authorization notices -- This is the only computer I have iTunes loaded on and it is authorized.

Downloaded an album and several songs will not play - advising the PC is not authorized. It's the only PC I have iTunes loaded on and it is authorized. I've got through all the advised steps to re-set my account and still having the problem.

Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for recent store downloads typically indicates you have corrupt or incomplete copies. 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.
