Album Art error (-609)

Hello all,

Over the last couple of days, i've started getting the iTunes album art error: -609. I've seen topics on this before, but the only fix people seemed to be able to offer was 'wait for the next version of iTunes'. Is anybody else suffering from this at the moment, or is it just me?

Are there any workarounds on it rather than wait for some spurious date in the future when Apple might get round to fixing it?

Many thanks!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.2)

Hello there,

First I would try this:
Sign out of iTunes store
Quit iTunes
Re-load iTunes
Log into Store
And then re-attempt to retrieve album artwork

Or try the solution provided in this article.
