How do you get album artwork? I have like two thousand songs and about 95% don't have cover album artwork and when i try to get album artwork it says "Itunes can not find album artwork" "an unknown error occurred-609" what do i do?

Perhaps try the "Error -609" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

  • Artwork for ..... could not be found. An unknown error occurred (-609).

    I've installed both 7.5 and 7.6 and with either version for some reason I can no longer get the album artwork to any of my albums, when trying to get them the following message appears: Artwork for ..... could not be found. An unknown error occurred (-609). Any help how I can get the album artwork for my albums would be very much appreciated.

    When all my songs were transfered to iTunes half of my songs have '!' to the left of them in a black circle. Is there anyway to delete them all at once or do I have to go through every second song and hit delete?
    Try iTLU - iTunes Library Updater which if set up properly can remove all missing tracks from the library and add all new unlisted tracks from your media folders into the library. Running time seems to grow expoentially with the size of the libray - 34,000 drags, but 5,000 shouldn't be too bad.

    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

  • IPhone 4s can not be restored. A unknown error occurred (1)

    My phone decided to turn itself off, and now wont restore,just getting the message "iPhone can not be restored. An unknown error occurred(1). I've tried the hold power and home button together but doesn't work.
    Any ideas anyone?

    Hoping someone has an answer for this as well. Some of the things I've tried are:
    - Installing on different machines
    - Using different USB cables
    - Using different USB ports
    - Restoring while the phone is in DFU mode
    - Connecting the computer directly to the router
    - Restoring on Windows 7 and Windows XP (no access to a Mac)
    Each and every time I get the same Unknown Error (1) message.

    I am having similar issues except that the store starts to load, then stops, then I only get iTunes Store in gray letters on a white screen. I can access playlist and the other stuff. Like flamesgirl, I contacted them and they just keep sending me links of stuff to try which I had already seen on the Apple website and nothing works. I posted the question on another forum I belong to and one responder said her husband was in an Apple store and asked about this problem as he was having the same issue. They said an update would be coming out soon as they were aware of the problem. Who knows.

  • The itunes library cannot be saved.  An unknown error occurred (-50)  What do I do to get rid of this warning.  I get it when I try to sync my phone or ipad

    I am running 64 bit windows operating system.  I upgraded to iOS6 for iphone 4s and ipad II.  Since that upgrade I have been getting this error message
    The itunes library cannot be saved.  An unknown error occurred (-50)
    I've updated windows thinking it was a compatibility issue.  Uninstalled itunes and reinstalled with the Kaspersky off.
    What is going on.  Thoughts?
    and if you click okay it keeps coming back for 3 or 4 pop ups before going away

  • HT201210 Getting this = "The iPhone could not be restored.  An unknown error occurred (1)"  What can I do next?  Has new OS and new iTunes... it's an iPhone 3GS

    All of a sudden my iPhone 3GS gave me a message about setting "Location Services" I think?  anyway, when it failed a few times, I was then directed to "restore" my phone.  tried that and POOF!!!! could not be restored.  Now have a cute little paper weight, but would like to convert it back to a phone.  Any help?

    Error 1 is a very bad Hardware Error of the Baseband Chip. There is no fix. If you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage, make Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

  • Why is it that Itunes can't find album art for "North" by Elvis Costello and others

    Why is it that from all the albums in my Library itunes can not find album art for:
    "North" by Elvis Costello
    "Viva la Vida" by Coldplay
    and "Old Yellow Moon" by Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowel?

    Earl,
    For iTunes to find the art, it needs to match exactly on the Artist and Album Text.  Minor issues like spacing or punctuation can prevent the match, as can a misspelling like "Crowel" for Crowell."
    Look in the iTunes Store to get the exact text, fix the tags in the corresponding tracks, and then try again to "Get Album Artwork."
    If that still fails, just grab the correct art off the web, and paste it into the Artwork tab.

  • The iphone could not be restorted. An unknown Error occurred (21).

    when i  restore my iphone using  itune this error pop up".The iphone could not be restorted. An unknown Error occurred (21)". what should i do? my iphone cant open..

    This is a solution to this problem, but you have to have all your iPhone data backuped before you set the iPhone into DFU Mode (Device Firmware Upgrade Mode)
    Please Follow the following instruction Step by Step
         - Connect your iPhone to your Mac or PC via the 30-pin connector.
         - Hold Power and Home-Button for ten seconds.
         - After ten seconds, release the Power Button, but keep the Home button pressed until iTunes sees the        device.
         - Once your device into DFU mode, there will only be a black screen on your iPhone.
    If you successfully performed these steps, iTunes will give you a message that a device was found in Recovery Mode and restore it to be.
    Now you SHIFT and Restore in iTunes button to press together, so that iTunes can refer to the IOS firmware to which you are restoring. If you have followed these steps you shouldn't get the Error 21 anymore.

  • IPhone could not be restored. An Unknown error occurred (3194).

    My battery is sort of messed up, the phone dies at any time it wants. I asked at the apple store and they told me to restore the phone and check for improvements. I've backed it up but when restoring the phone, before it restarts the message "iPhone could not be restored. An Unknown error occurred (3194)." appears. how do i fix that?

    Hello, Aaljandel. 
    Thank you for the question.  Here are the troubleshooting steps that I would recommend going through when receiving error 3194 on a restore. 
    Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
