Auto download artwork?

Does anyone know of a program that will auto download artwork for a song/album by either selecting the album or something and attach the artwork to the file?
Currently I am using Linspire's Lsongs in a virtual pc session on my PC to try to go through my library and download artwork. In Lsongs you can select a song or group of songs from the same album and there is a button that will attempt to download the artwork for that album from Amazon. It works very well but using Lsongs witha big song library stinks big time. I was wondering if someone else had a good program they were using to download artwork. Need a program for either windows or osx as I could run it from my ibook but I would like the program to attach the artwork to the song file like however lsongs is doing it cause I don't want a bunch of images files in the music library folders.

Use the Amazon.com lookup function, and tell it to save the album art in the file tag. Perfectly iTunes compatible.

Java web start unable to auto download java 1.6.0_14

Hi,
My application runs on java 1.6.0_14 and i want clients to use either 1.6.0_14 or higher while running the application. In the JNLP file i have mentioned j2se version as 1.6.0_14+
If the client machine has a java version lesser than 1.6.0_14, Java web start is not automatically downloading the given version from sun auto download site.
Isn' t this version supported by Sun for auto download? If yes, how to get around this problem?

Thanks..
We do have a web page from which we access the jnlp and that web page has javascript to force download of a specific version of JRE. Once it downloads the application on client machine, it creates an icon on the desktop.
If the application and jnlp is changed on the server, we want clients to go through the icon on desktop and still get the version of jre mentioned in the updated jnlp rather than having them go through the web page again do download the new JRE required...

Help! iTunes auto-downloading apps I don't use anymore

I don't want iTunes to re-download Broken Sword and Asphalt 5 for the iPad/iPhone. My iTunes is sync'd with my Dropbox and it wastes like a GB of space between the two of them. I have it unchecked in the store section of iTunes to automatically download apps. But after syncing my iPhone they start to download EVERY TIME. Drives me nuts. I've deleted, unchecked the box that says to auto download, etc. I don't have them on my devices either. I will never ever play those games again even though I paid for them. What can I do to have it quit doing that?

try sending an email to the iTS customer service using this form and ask the folks there to remove the item(s) from your download queue.

Downloading artwork - "could not get artwork for some albums"

This might have been addressed before, but I browsed the forum and couldn't find a thread. Sorry if it's been gone over several times.
I live in Turkey and I've added albums to my iTunes. I checked the box in the Get Info next to Artwork and I selected Get Album Artwork from the Advanced tab. It scans through all the albums and then says "could not get artwork for some albums." "Some" albums means all of them actually. And the error tab details say "artwork not available." I also tried getting artwork by right clicking on a single album but I get the same error. Before it was a 609 error. Now it just says not available.
I logged out of the store, quit iTunes, loaded it again, re-signed in to the store and tried to get artwork that way, but got the same result. No artwork. The albums are things like Let It Be, Allman Brothers, Ella Fitzgerald... Albums that should certainly have artwork available.
I'm using Windows Vista.
Has anyone had and conquered this problem? Any ideas on what I should do? I have 300+ albums, so getting the cover art from wikipedia would be a bit tedious. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give!

Hello, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Are your songs from Audio CDs or iTunes Store? If not you may need to manually find the album artwork for them as these songs may not be listed in the iTunes Store database for your region.
iTunes: Album art may not download properly
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1815
iTunes will only download album artwork for songs that it can find in the iTunes Store. iTunes will check each song in your iTunes library and attempt to match it up with a song in the iTunes Store. If the data matches, iTunes will download the album artwork from the iTunes Store and add it to the song in your iTunes library. If iTunes does not find a particular song's artwork in the iTunes Store, you will not see an alert message. iTunes simply does not download artwork for that song.

I am trying to redownload the music we lost after computer crashed.a message is showing this computer is already authorized with an apple id, if i download past purchases with my id i can not auto-download or download past purchases for 90 days????

What does auto-download mean and why am i getting this message?

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

Automatic Downloads and Strange Error Message: "You can auto-download purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days"

Hi gang-
Yesterday I noticed that iTunes on my iMac had not auto-downloaded several new songs that I had recently purchased on my iPhone.    In iTunes Preferences, under Store -> Automatic Downloads, I always have Music selected so all songs purchased from any device using my Apple ID normally download automatically.
To troubleshoot this, I double-checked my Preferences and sure enough, Music was de-selected under Automatic Downloads.   I then Selected it and clicked OK.   Here's where it gets weird and I get this error message:
This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can auto-download purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 84 days.
I read and re-read this message and none of it seems to apply to me.   I have only one Apple ID.   I am currently logged in with iTunes to that one Apple ID.   All my iTunes Music ever has been purchased with that one Apple ID.   I am not trying to associate this computer or any other with a different Apple ID.
I logged iTunes out and then back in again and tried all the above- but same error message.
So, as it is now, I am unable to turn on Automatic Downloads in iTunes.
Anyone know what the heck is going on?
Thanks!
Dave

Hey gang-
Okay, this gets more and more bizarre.   I sent a support email to Apple and basically they said "...it seems that someone else associated your Mac with their Apple ID. That's the reason your purchases won't download."
Yikes!   My wife and I live alone- and we have exactly one and only one Apple ID.    Would somebody have needed physical access to my iMac to do that?
Support then said "You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer."
Okay- so I logged into My Account in iTunes.   On the list of associated devices, my own iMac is NOT on that list.   But I am logged in under the same Apple ID I've had for years on that iMac.
So my big question right now is...if my iMac (that I've owned for 5 years) has somehow been dis-associated from my Apple ID, how do I find out what Apple ID it is associated with?
Thanks gang for trying to help me unravel a mystery.
Dave
PS- Here's an Apple Tech article on iTunes associations, but it doesn't really go beyond what we've discussed above:

Do I need to manually back up my iphone photos if I have auto downloads already set up in iphoto?

I'm a relatively new iPhone user. I don't take a ton of photos, but the ones I take are important to me. I've been trying to make sure that photos I take with my phone are backed up and in iPhoto. I have a few questions regarding how it all works.
1) If I take a picture with my iPhone it goes to both my camera roll and my photostream (yes, photostream is on)... is this correct?
2) My photostream is limited to 1000 photos. These photos exist on the cloud aren't necessarily saved to my computer... is this correct?
3) I have automatic downloading set up via iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. When I do this ALL photos I take are downloaded by my computer as long as I've connected it to the internet at some point recently... is this corret? If they are downloaded, are they downloaded from my photostream, or are they downloaded as they come in?
4) If I go over 1000 photos in a month in my photostream, does it save ALL of them to iPhoto or just the 1000 most current? In other words, in iPhoto I see a section labeled, for example, "May 2013 Photostream". If I took 1500 photos during that May timeframe, would they ALL be there or would only the 1000 that constituted my photostream at the time of download be in there?
5) If a photo is show in iPhoto it is permenantly downloaded to my computer's harddrive... is this correct?
6) This is the biggest one. If I have auto downloads set up between my iPhone and iPhoto, is there any reason to download photos manually? Everytime I download photos manually it says I have a bunch of duplicates. They all seem to be duplicated in my photo stream, BUT others are not duplicated and seem to download at the time of the manual operation, which makes me think that they autodownloads aren't downloading everything.
7) Do photos I edit in Snapseed or Instagram get downloaded automatically or do I have to put them somewhere for that to happen?
Sorry for the barrage of questions. This stuff is super confusing if you've never used it before. I just want to be sure I haven't lost anything and don't delete anything.

Good questions!
SInce you are having Photo Stream, you may want to backup your iPhone to iCLoud. to be on the safe side, see: iCloud: Backup and restore overview
1) If I take a picture with my iPhone it goes to both my camera roll and my photostream (yes, photostream is on)... is this correct?
Yes, photos you take with the iPhone will be stored in the camera roll, and the camera roll will be automatically added to iCLoud and synced to your devices.
2) My photostream is limited to 1000 photos. These photos exist on the cloud aren't necessarily saved to my computer... is this correct?
My photo stream is limited to max 1000 photos and only the last month of photos.
If you enable automatic import on your mac, these photos will be stored on your mac automatically in monthly events in iPhoto. Or you can import manually, what you are seeing in the My Photo Stream album.
See: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
3) I have automatic downloading set up via iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. When I do this ALL photos I take are downloaded by my computer as long as I've connected it to the internet at some point recently... is this corret? If they are downloaded, are they downloaded from my photostream, or are they downloaded as they come in?
All photos currently in iCloud will be visible in the Photo Stream, when it is enabled on your mac, and with automatic import they will be added to the monthly events, as soon as the mac syncs with iCloud.
4) If I go over 1000 photos in a month in my photostream, does it save ALL of them to iPhoto or just the 1000 most current?
When you reach 1000 photos in My Photo Stream, the oldest photos will automatically deleted, so you should sync your phone before that happens.
iCloud: Photo Stream limits
In other words, in iPhoto I see a section labeled, for example, "May 2013 Photostream". If I took 1500 photos during that May timeframe, would they ALL be there or would only the 1000 that constituted my photostream at the time of download be in there?
You can sync more than a 1000 photos per month, only make sure, you sync often.
5) If a photo is show in iPhoto it is permenantly downloaded to my computer's harddrive... is this correct?
It is downloaded permanently, as soon as you are seeing it in an event in iPhoto, not if it is only showing in the "My Photo Stream" album.
6) This is the biggest one. If I have auto downloads set up between my iPhone and iPhoto, is there any reason to download photos manually? Everytime I download photos manually it says I have a bunch of duplicates. They all seem to be duplicated in my photo stream, BUT others are not duplicated and seem to download at the time of the manual operation, which makes me think that they autodownloads aren't downloading everything.
One good reason to download manually would be the download speed. It is just quicker, and you are not risking transmission errors. Also, you may have more photos in your camera roll than in the photo stream, because you could have deleted photos from the photo stream. The duplicates should be no problem, if you exclude them from importing.
7) Do photos I edit in Snapseed or Instagram get downloaded automatically or do I have to put them somewhere for that to happen?
I do not use these apps, so I cannot be sure, but usually you will have to save edited photos back to the camera roll, to be able to sync them, either with Photo Stream or by manual sync.

Hi- apparently I also had a similar moment of madness and thought that 'freeride games' would be fun. Well, so much for that! It added a ton of things to my tool bar, I would like to uninstall it, any suggestions for this one?
thanks :)

GPO is set for "Auto download and notify for install" but it does not work correctly on two of my servers.

Hello,
I have a problem with two of my servers. I have ~200 servers which are updating fine through WSUS. The settings are as you can see "3 - Auto download and notify for install" in the GPO.
This is the correct setting. I want to achieve that I can install the updates whenever I want on these servers. On client computers there is a strict schedule with auto installs.
My GPO works fine for 98% of my servers. On two servers (a big file server and a TMG server) the settings are made as you can see in the screenshots, but the updates still get installed automatically.
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here... It is a big problem for me that updates get installed automatically on these servers.
Although the Policy and the Registry both say 3 the server behaves like option 4 is active.
I would be very thankful for any input on how to find out what's the issue here.

and was not able to find any sign of an admin installing it in the WindowsUpdate.log.
Then the Windows Update Agent DID NOT install this update, and it's not really a WSUS issue.
My typical response to such a claim would be to ask you to show me in the WindowsUpdate.log where the update was installed... but it seems that request has already been answered.
The more relevant question it seems, is HOW DID these updates allegedly get installed?

BESX SP3 MR6 - Email attachments are now ALWAYS Auto-download - not good with duplicate attachment names

Does anybody else see where email attachments are now always auto-download on all devices. The policy option was phased out in 5.0 but the default at that time was no (to auto-download). Now they all auto-download.
1. PDF will not display because they must stay as attachment to render on Blackberry device. Says
“This attachment type cannot be viewed on your device”
2. Phone messages attached as voicemail.wav - first one works, but since no longer the "Preview" option second says "Fielname exists - Rename?" Some devcies you can save and go back - others you can't.

Surely there's an expert on this forum who can help?

How come I'm not asked for password for every app purchase, app auto downloads once I tap install, not good when my kids start buying apps because they are not asked for password, help!!

Thank you for the help, have sorted it through Restrictions in General settings now : )
No more mysterious app purchases on my c.card now thank god !!
You would think they would set as default that Password was required - Imediatly . But they know there likely to get more purchases the way the default set it..
Thanks again for prompt reply!!!

JavaWebStart JRE 1.4.2 auto-download installer sample

Environment: WinXP - Pro SvcPack2, jdk1.5.0_08
I am a JAVA newbie attempting to learn more. In trying to learn more about the JRE auto-download installer, I tried to build the sample installer using the README found in the jdk1.5.0_08\sample\jnlp\jreinstaller directory as a guide -- without success.
I went the GNU website and got a copy of "gnumake". I then went to the jreinstaller\build\win32\jreinstallers directory and ran 'gnumake'. I got the following error;
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, uname, ...) failed.
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, uname, ...) failed.
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, uname, ...) failed.
for i in j2re1_4_2/GNUmakefile ; do \

32/gnumake -f $i bundle || exit 1; \
echo "<<<Finished Recursively making "$i" "all"." ; \
done
i was unexpected at this time.
gnumake: *** [all] Error 255
I "assume" the problem I am having is a "setup" issue. Can anyone help point me in the right direction to compile this.
Thank you!!!

Well, I got over one hurdle by using a SUN document that describes setting up the environment for building a JDK under Windows.
I am using the Cygwin command binaries for compilation.
Now when I try to build the sample, I get the following error;
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_08\sample\jnlp\jreinstaller\build\win32\jreinstallers>C:\cygwin\bin\make all
for i in j2re1_4_2/GNUmakefile ; do \

done

Any idea what the 'Error 53' means?

1.4.2 JRE auto-download signature problem

Hi,
When I try to use the 1.4.2 cab file for auto-download, I find that there is a certificate signature problem when it installs. It comes up with a message:
"Warning: The authenticity of this content cannot be verified, therefore it cannot be trusted.
Problem listed below:
Content does not match the signature."
I'm not sure that it happens every time, but at least half of the time.
This is a problem because we will supply this cab file with our product, so that the customer has an option to install it. However, it will look like we're supplying something unsecured.
Here's the location of the cab file in question:
OBJECT CODEBASE="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_2-windows-i586.cab"
Anyone else experienced this? Is this a bug?
Thanks,
Mike.

This seems to the same problem as in bug 4908234, which currently has status "In progress, bug".

Auto download TV shows from itunes to ipad?

Hello,
Is there anyway I can set my IPad to auto download / receive the TV shows I have downloading. They auto download from iTunes on my mac in iTunes when they are available.. let me know if anyone can help me

I'm not aware that you can with the iPad - you can do so with music, apps, and ibooks (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4539), but I don't think that you currently can with TV shows or films.
