If you see repeated requests to authorise songs, that indicates that the song file is faulty. It may have been an incomplete download for example.


The suggested fix is to delete the faulty song from your Library (and from your computer) and download it again. You need to look at your account purchases in order to see them.


Try it with one faulty song. Once you understand who it works, repeat the procedure with any other songs.
