Q: Computer authorized song still will not play

I got a new PC loaded i-Tunes onto it when I try to play a song that I brought from iTunes it says This computer is not authorized to play "song title" Would you like to authorize it?

It Auto populates my Apple ID and has a place for my Password. I enter my password and click Authorize. it comes back with This computer is already authorized. If I click on the song again the same processes starts over again.

I have verified the Apple ID as the one that brought the song. How do I get past this so I can play all the songs that I brought online?

Windows 7, Windows PC

Hello, nosbor15.

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I understand that you are prompted repeatedly to authorize your computer. The most common cause for this issue would be media present in your library that is purchased with another Apple ID. However, I see you have checked for that already. I would recommend going through the remainder of the steps in the article below.
