Hullo Ronni Thank you for your reply.
I have tried to work my way through your points 1-7. My screen commies up a little differently; however the Cloud emblem did appear and I signed out and signed in again. There was a little problem and I was required to feed in a new ID and a new Password. I did this and then signed out and in again. The cloud appeared again - next to my "music" - however there was nowhere that I actually could see to : 7. Select iCloud and Link Computer, as suggested by you. I followed your steps again, but could not manage to take myself to a screen exactly as you described. I have turned my iPad off and on a few times; however the same 7 songs are still "ghosted" and will not play (although they do play on my big Mac). Quite possibly I have missed something very basic! I will turn everything completely off for a while now and see if that helps - sometimes strangely enough it does. I will let you know later if there is any result!
