I changed my email address and iTunes won't play anymore

Question

I switch from AOL to MSN and now my iTunes songs won't play even though I updated all my info with iTunes. I have authorized and re-authorized over and over but still all the songs purchased using my "now deactivated" AOL email account won't play. I checked the song files and there still there on my hard drive (shows 2-4MB for each song)but when I click to play them I get a pop up telling me to authorize so I do, then I get a pop up that say's that I was sucessful and I have used 1 out of 5 computers, but when I click the play button again I get the same results, NOTHING play's. iTunes support just keeps telling me the same thing over and over "DE-authorize and Re-authorize but that does nothing other then telling me I was sucessful even though it's not working. PLease Help I have over 200 iTunes songs that won't play......

Answer 1

Thanks but I've Been There Done That, and when I do use the old AOL sign on the iTunes sign in screen it pops up THIS AOL ACCOUNT IS NO LONGER ACTIVE, so then I chose to update with an apple account, and then everything appears to work until I click on the song again to play it, then nothing but a pop up starting me from the begining asking me to sign in with the AOL account again. So then I enter my new apple info and the screen pop up say's I have been sucessful in authorizing 1 out of 5 computers so at this time I would think the songs would play but they don't. I should mention I have 2 iTunes accounts 1 that had a verizon email address(1 ver & 1 AOL), and I did this same process for that account and those songs and videos play. I'm starting to believe this is an Apple/AOL clich when you switch email accounts to another provider other then AOL and transfer to an Apple account.
