In iTunes on my MAC a playlist containing 16 items has 14 greyed out with no blue play button showing. It's been this way for a couple of months while I tried making a new playlist of the items - same problem in the new playlist.
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.0.x)
The greyed out items are now gone from the playlist. I originally downloaded each from a link in an e-mail.
I'll see if the author is willing to send me the links again.
Thank you so very much for all your help.
Just joined, but weren't a member when this issue first arose? See About iCloud Music Library icons and status - Apple Support anyway to see what information that offers. What is the Kind of these tracks?

When I check or uncheck the selection, only the two items of 15, respond.
Is the context menu what comes up when I Rclick? I don't know where Tick selection is but think check or uncheck selection may be the same thing.
Specifically, in the Songs view, what is presented in the Kind column for those tracks? E.g. MPEG audio file, AAC audio file, Internet audio stream, etc. You can right-click on the column headings to add the Kind column if not already displayed.

A possible explanation might be something off with security permissions. Try Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows.

Try selecting all items in the playlist (Cmd-A), right or ctrl-click, then use Tick Selection from the context menu.

Thanks, I will try this and let you know...
Use View > View As > Songs. Try to play one of the songs that doesn't work. Is there an error message? Is the an exclamation mark shown? Do you have either Apple Music or iTunes Match?

No error message, not an exclamation mark. Just joined Apple music and tried suggestions again - same results.
Nor and Apple Music member when the issue arose. These tracts are spoken word. Meditations.
Mpeg and Wav audio files. Added kind column
14 of sixteen items in a playlist are not working.
