How to Correct the Wrong Album Art in iTunes

If you purchase from iTunes, the download will come automatically equipped with a preset album cover to accompany the song. This image will show up when you listen to the song on your iPod. However, you may prefer to assign a different album cover to the song or correct the cover that came with it. If this is the case, you can get your wish with just a few clicks. You can upload essentially any image to be the cover art for your iTunes album.

      Reopen the iTunes window. Find the song or album you wish to use as your album art. If you wish to change an entire album's worth of cover art, you will need to change each song individually. Right click the song and select the option "Get info."
