Music Album Artwork Incorrect When Synched

After synching my music, ALL the album artwork is incorrect! I can't figure out how to fix it. On my Mac the artwork is correct in iTunes but in my phone it is all wrong. Can someone please HELP me??

Are you subscribed to Apple Music?


If so, whenever you sync local music to your iPhone, it is automatically matched to Apples catalogue, which means their own artwork and metadata. You get wrong matches because your local metadata is most likely inaccurate.


You can disable “Sync library” in iPhone music settings, so that Apple won’t alter your existing metadata. Or fix your metadata, so that the artist, album, track listing, release date are displayed correctly. Apple will then correctly match it. Many third party tools that can automatically do that for you.
