Ok, let's retrace our steps here.


Which subscription service do you have? Apple Music or iTunes Match? If you're paying every month then it should be Apple Music.


What devices do you use iCloud Music Library with? Just one computer, or do you have an iPhone or iPad too?


Is your credit method up to date? Could Apple have had difficulty collecting payment?


Are you currently signed into your Apple ID in iTunes? (See the Account menu) Is iCloud Music Library enabled? (See Edit > Preferences > General)


You mentioned that download songs have disappeared. That normally only happens if you actively delete them, or the iTunes library gets corrupted in some fashion. In either case one would expect you to continue to see past purchase with cloud links, or your entire iCloud Music Library in the cloud if you have Apple Music or iTunes Match, as long as you're signed into the account.



You can contact iTunes - Official Apple Support or use the Contact Apple Support link that appears on every page of this site.
