Google adwords not showing my ad!

I don't understand what is happening. I have $90 balance, plenty to make my ads show. When I do a google search for terms I have bid on (and I think I am the high bidder, for sure), I am not seeing my ad. This started yesterday. I didn't change anything. In fact, it seems that it is not only not showing my ad but not showing some other ads, as well. One search term I used, only one ad showed up and that doesn't seem right.

When I have checked this from time to time over the past couple of weeks, my ad shows up at the very top of the ad list. Because I am the top bidder.

Confused.

    Your ad is not guaranteed to show every time a search for that keyword is run. If you are concerned, just increase your bid -- the only way to get it to show every time.

      No, as I said, I know I am the top bidder or very close to it. I am bidding plenty. I have been in the top spot for awhile now.

        I think Goog is testing your patience to see if you shell out even more.

    Livemusic also check your daily spend / view settings or if you have any restrictions set. for example if you have a low daily $ set the system will set your ad evenly to show during the day to meet you daily budget / view settings which may not be every search query.

      Change a couple of words in your ad. You will see it show. PM me your ad and I will help you get it to number 1.

      I think that's it, daily budget was not high enough. Uh-oh, will now spend more money.

    You can ask adword support about it. They will tell what happened.
    As i know not every add will appear anytime.
