Download error

I recently downloaded an album in I-tunes. Some of the songs downloaded. Others did not. When I attempt to play the songs on my computer (Windows) some songs come up with an errors, stating my computer is not authorized to play that song. I reauthorized my computer several times but no luck. I went to "Recently Purchased" and I can see the album but can't do anything with it. Ideas? I do have the latest version of I-Tunes.

Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for recent 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.
