Probably database corruption. Delete and add back your media and it should be ok.Actually, something like 30% of my movies all of a sudden stopped showing their artwork, unless I brought up the info menu, then it would suddenly be there. Then when it was off screen as I scrolled away and came back, it was gone again.
This was something in excess of 300 movies. Also on the appletv nothing would show for the artwork.
Can't say I've looked in my music library so will have to check.
For the movies, I use iFlicks for the meta data tagging, and so selected all the movies that showed the issue and ran iFlicks through the services menu of iTunes redoing the metadata. Worked a treat and all the items are holding now.
Best I can offer.

Select and delete everything in the library. Then go to File>Add to library. Navigate to the folder you have your media stored in and select it.How do you do this mic?
Yeah, I know it is not the ideal fix, but it is the only thing I have found to work. I don't use any of the data iTunes collects for anything, so that did not have an impact on me. I might add, that I tried fixing individually but next time I would use iTunes, others or some of the same would be missing again. This was the only way I know of to fix everything all at once and for good (knock on wood). Once fixed it has not reoccurred in over a year.Fixed my movies, but you say database corruption....isn't the artwork embedded in the movie file?
Also..deleting and re adding the media isn't a great thing to do as is screws up the play counts, dates, history that gets built up over time. This stuff is priceless when building up your library. Smart play lists etc can use so much of this that's lost when you do it.
