Hello friends,

here I am again! I've just imported a CD onto my Mac. It's in my library, but I want to go online, to find the artwork for the album cover. I'm afraid I don't know what to do. Can you please help?


Frank.

Assuming it's in iTunes (you didn't say), open iTunes, get into the "Album" view and right click on the album missing the artwork. One of the options in the window that opens is to Get Artwork. Click that. If it can find it, it will then replace the missing artwork icon with the artwork for the album. If it cannot find it, you will have to find it yourself, get it downloaded somehow onto your computer and then import the artwork to the album manually.

I use Amazon for any missing artwork. Just do a search for the CD, and copy/drag the album photo to your Desktop. Select your album/CD tracks in iTunes, select Get Info in the Edit Menu, click on the Artwork tab in the Info window and drag and drop the artwork.

No worries Frank, just that I always read your posts but I don't always have an answer. PS I'd probably read them anyway but I'm not everybody.
