  • How can I get iTunes to download album artwork?

    Posted by admin on January 30th, 2010 and filed under album downloads | 11 Comments »

    I imported all my CDs into iTunes on my old computer, then just copied the .mp3’s to my new computer. Some of the songs have the album artwork (somehow – i didn’t copy any images) but others don’t.

    There is an option in iTunes to "Automatically download missing artwork" and I have that turned on, but no artwork seems to be downloading…

    What can I do?

    make sure all of the information is right (song, artist, album, etc.) and right click and select: Get Album Artwork

      right click on the album name

      go to "View" at top of screen, choose "as grid"
      right click on the album and "get album artwork" should be one of the options

      nothing. but you can right-click on a song in the album and click the tab that says art or artwork or something. then paste it in. assuming you go out and copy it from the web

      Set an user account. In order to download the album artwork you need to have an account with itunes.

      If the song is available in iTunes store:
      You go to the songs and right click (or option+click (or whatever Mac alternative to right click is)) and select "Get Information" then look for a button that says "Get album Artwork"
      If the songs are not on the store, then go to "get information" and look for a button that says "browse for artwork" or something like that… then you have to download it from the internet and paste it into the album folder and if it isn’t automatically updated, then you browse for it.

      Right-click the song and click ‘download album artwork’. it will work only if the album is under the iTunes database.

      You could look for the album of the song and then save it right click the song and click on ”Get Info…” and then click on artwork and then just look for the album and click on the photo and clikc on OK and it will automatically put the picture. But make sure you put the album work before you put it in your iPod.
