I've had a similar experience a year or so ago when trying to resurrect an old apple account so I could listen to the DRMmed music I "bought" when I was young and stupid. I got inconsistent, confusing error messages when trying to sign in and authorize playback. None gave the correct answer, which was that I was trying to use the incorrect account for that track. There are some parts of the Apple ecosystem which are so obviously unloved and completely un-QC'd. Same with the app store, it's like no employee has actually tried using it.
