Have recently downloaded two albums and on each there is one track that will not play and message states that I need to authorise my computer. Tried that and still does not play. I have not authorised more than two devices. Why would random tracks not play?
Windows, Windows 10
Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for 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.
If that hasn't helped see If iTunes for Windows prompts you to authorize your computer when you try to play purchases - Apple Support.

That is helpful advice and after a lengthy call from Apple Support, that was the solution. Thanks for replying. All the best, Tim
You're welcome. 🙂

Some songs on downloaded albums not playing and message states that I need to authorise my P.C.
