Hello billhendry1,


We see that you found the article Authorize or deauthorize your computer for iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support


Were you able to complete these steps in order to authorize your Mac? That's what you'll need to do, specifically for the Apple ID used to first purchase or download those songs. They're linked to the Appl ID, so you Mac needs permission to access them.


Thanks!
