Error -609 in itunes 10.4.0.8

How can I fix an error -609 in itunes 10.4.0.8? Album Artwork will not search or find. Any ideas?

Fixed :-) downloaded the lastest version from itunes again http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes/download/ and clicked on repair.
Once completed everything was fine without a restart.

  • Itunes error (-609) when attempting to download artwork

    I'm receiving the following message when attempting to download album artwork:
    Artwork for XXXXXX could not be found. An unknown error occurred (-609)
    MY first thought was that it was due to the artwork being unavailable, but i deleted the artwork for an album which i had previously downloaded. When i tried to re-download the artword, same problem. I can download track information, though.
    This has occurred since updating to itunes 8.0.1.11
    using 64 bit Vista. Never had this problem before...

    I installed V8.2.0.23 created a new library. Added one album. Clicked on Get Album Artwork. Got unknown error (-609). Spent hours trauling the web to find a solution. Logging into iTunes store and signing out and restarting iTunes and the PC did NOT fix the problem.
    Then I installed V6.2.1.6 only to find I still get the same problem.
    Interestingly, if I run the diagnostics from the Help menu it tells me Internet Connection Failed. (which is bollox - because I have been browsing the web for hours to try and find a solution) But I wonder if it is linked.
    I can't beleive how naff iTunes is.
    Does anyone have a solution that actually works?

  • Can't get album artwork - error 609

    I'm using MBP and iTunes 10.3.1.
    When importing from a CD, I got the track details but not the album artwork. On requesting through menu Advanced I get "Unknown error -609".
    However,  the same CD on Windows+RealPlayer can get all album and track info.
    Any ideas to get the album artwork on MBP+iTunes?
    Thanks

    Btw, I desabled the firewall and it still can't get the artwork.
    The CD is "Queen - A Night At The Opera".

  • Receiving 'Unknown Error (-609)' when trying to download album artwork.

    Hey all. The subject line says it all. When importing tracks from CD or other sources into iTunes, I get Unknown Error (-609) every time. My connection works, and I've only had this problem since updating to the latest version. The last time I had this issue, I updated and everything was fine but I can't update to a later version now.
    Does anyone know how to get rid of this issue?

    And before it gets suggested, I know full well I can use my internet browser to get artwork and copy/paste it that way. But as I'm in the middle of a stack of roughly 40 discs that I'm uploading, I have no desire to search out all of those album covers if it can be avoided.

  • Unknown Error (-609)

    I keep getting this Unknown Error (-609) since upgrading to the new version of itunes. It pops up eveytime i click download album covers. Can anyone help me fix it?

    Did you manage to solve the problem? I have the same issue - today I downloaded a new version of itunes as prompted when I logged in and since then every album I import comes up with the same error message. Does anyone have any ideas how to solve the problem please?

  • Error (-609) what is it? I cant get album artwork for half my library

    i am trying to get album artwork but error (-609) keeps coming up and not allowing me to do so... Any answers??

    - Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
    - Instead, try restoring from backup.

  • Error 609, "Get Album artwork" - doesn't happen

    I haven't had problems with getting album artwork until now. I always make sure the artist and album are properly labeled and nothing else in iTunes is running. I now get error 609, where artwork won't download.

    This solved itself when I upgraded to 10.5.8 and iTunes 9.0.2
