Itunes 10.2.2 - unknown error -609

- every time I rip a CD, it will not process the artwork, giving an unknown error occured -609. I cannot find this error code anywhere here! This error pops after the CD is ripped and doesn't process any further. Help!

I am the administrator, so this can't be a rights problem. The error message says "error writing to file c:\program files\apple software update\softwareupdate.exe. Verify that you have access to that directory".
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive, as per the following document:
How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • 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.

  • Can anyone help a newbie with "An unknown error (-609)" message?

    I just bought my first iPod a week ago and so far, I haven't had any problems with iTunes. But today, I can't get any artwork for CD's I'm importing because of "An unknown error (-609)." I checked, and my iTunes is up to date. Is there anything I can do about this or is this the kind of problem that will come and go on its own?

    No. I bought it online. Still can't restore. Pls help me. Thanks!

  • Help error message - iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store.  An unknown error occurred (0x80092013)

    This message keeps coming up everytime I try and log in on iTunes:
    iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store.  An unknown error occurred (0x80092013)
    I have have looked at my proxy and unclicked the box.
    I have enabled iTunes on my firewall. 
    I have uninstalled it and reinstalled the update. 
    I'm at a loss, can anyone help me know where I have gone wrong?
    Thank-you

    If like me you have concluded that this is not a connectivity issue.
    In my case it is a problem with Webkit2 and they way it handles SSL certificates.
    To test if this is the case install Safari for windows 5.1.7(if not already installed) and try to access a secure site, like facebook or your banking, if you receive a certificate dialog box saying 
    "Safari can't verify the identity of the website"
    If you hit "Continue" and the page loads but does not render correctly ........
    Then try using another browser (IE/FF/Chrome) and see if you are able to access the site without prompts and the page renders correctly.
    From Safari 4.04 onwards (as well as iTunes) it uses the windows root certificate store, to test uninstall Safari 5.1.7 and go back as far as Safar 3.2.3 (oldapps.com) and then try to access a secure site, if it renders correctly (back then Safari handled it's own certificates) you have the same problem as me
    If you also look in the logs for itunes when you're accessing (attempting) the store if you find a reference to webkit2 and certificates that should further help clarify the problem. btw - don't bother with windows root certificate updates if your other browsers work ok

    Each time I try to connect to the iTunes store, this has popped up. I googled error (-3212) and also followed the steps on iTunes support. I downloaded the new itunes and chose "repair files" all to no prevail. I use iTunes on a daily basis and bought and iTunes card 2 weeks ago which I now cannot use. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I just recently downloaded iTunes and whenever I try to access the store It says "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. An unknown error occurred (0x80096004). I have windows xp and it's running on service pack 2. I have downloaded and redownloaded iTunes many times. I'm getting very frustrated!  Please help!

    I have the same error for Windows Vista.  I read all the community posts and followed the suggested fixes including numerous uninstalls and installs, clearing cache, choosing various SSL TL options, turning off all spyware and nothing has worked.  My internet works fine for all my other programs so not sure what is going on with Itunes.  I will not buy anymore products through
