HT1399 How do I add the artwork of an album to my iTunes Library?

I took advantage of an offer for a free download of one song on the CD.
Then I purchased the CD and downloaded it into my music library.
The CD download included the artwork.
I chose to replace the selection with the new download.
Then I realized the selection was not in the same order in my library as it was on the CD itself, so I deleted the entire CD from my library.
Now that I have downloaded the CD a second time into my library, the artwork is not on there.
What to do?
I bet I need to check off the "Always Show Artwork" selection, delete the CD again from my library and download it for what I hope will be the final time, correct?

A good question.  Unfortunately Audition does not provide for album art to be inserted into an mp3 file. (Hopefully next version!!)
I use a free program called  Stamp ID3 tag editor from NCH software http://www.nch.com.au/tageditor/index.html but there are many others.
My process for a podcast is to mix down my Audition project to an uncompressed wav master file.  I then create an mp3 file from this in audition.
After closing Audition, I open the mp3 with Stamp ID3 and enter the tag information and import a jpg image for the album art.  Stamp ID3 then saves this information into the mp3 file.
I know others use itunes to insert the artwork into the mp3, but this requires you to import the mp3 into Itunes first.
Hope that helps
Ian

  • Can anyone help me write a script that would click "get info" and then "enter" on each movie in my itunes library? I am asking because my itunes 11 repeatedly loses the artwork to my movies in my itunes library.

    Can anyone help me write a script that would click "get info" and then "enter" on each movie in my itunes library? I am asking because my itunes 11 repeatedly loses the artwork to my movies in my itunes library. I can restore the artwork (and make my apple tv see the movie exists as well) by going into the movie library and clicking on each movie by hand, slecting get info, and then selecting enter. Now doing this 10 times in 20 days was fun and all BUT I would really like to automate the process so everytime itunes screws it up I can fix it easier.
    I saw this example of an itunes script that restores artwork for music
    tell application "iTunes" set theSelection to selection repeat with i from 1 to count of theSelection tell (item i of theSelection) set artworkCount to count of artwork repeat artworkCount times set theArtwork to data of artwork 1 delete artwork 1 set data of artwork artworkCount to theArtwork end repeat end tell end repeat end tell
    but I need to tweak this to fit my needs for simply clicking the "get info" button and "enter" in the movie library rather than all the stuff this guy has listed. Any ideas or help on writing this? Thanks.

  • My computer crashed that had all my songs on it - why cant I add the songs from my ipod to my itunes library?

    I would like to add all the music that is on my ipod to my itunes library - for some reason the backup itunes library I have does not have all the music on it and I do not know how to get the songs from my ipod to the itunes library - I do not want to sync the ipod with the current itunes as this would wipe out all the music I have on my ipod.  please help me to get this music back on my computer or in the itunes library.

    One option is to use iTunesFS and extract songs from your iPod.

  • How do I add  movies or books to an external second itunes library?

    I want to create an external itunes library.  I know I have to use opt. and restart itunes in the correct library.
    After I create a new second library, how do I add content to that library?  Do I just have it on the same disc, or must it be in a
    particular folder?  Don't know.  In my main itunes library, I just drag the movie into the open itunes window, and it puts my movie, or book
    where it belongs.  Please Help.  I have moved all my movies and books off my main computer iMac, onto an external drive. 
    Thanks if you could give me detailed how to's.  I have the current itunes software on my iMac.
    Bev

    Are you trying to start a second library just for the books and movies on the external drive?  If that's the case, create your library on the drive, then drag the books and movies to the Automatically Add To iTunes folder you will find in the iTunes folder that was just created for the new library on the external drive.  This will move the files to the correct locations within the new iTunes folder and add them to the new library.

  • How can I find the total number of songs in my iTunes library?

    I just downloaded the new itunes.  In the previous itune library at the bottom of the screen it told me how many songs I have total.  Not just purchased, but how many total songs were in my library.  I liked knowing this because I could verify my ipod was synced up properly.  Sometimes a song wouldn't download from my computer to my ipod, and by knowing how many songs were in the library, it was a double check.
    This song count is gone now with this new itune version.  There no bar at the bottom of my screen that shows me song count and I've gone through all the settings and can't figure out how to know this without manually counting the songs.  Any help is appreciated.

    Dear,
    In the top menu, you can choose 'view', and subsequently 'show status bar'. This shows the information on the bottom of the window.
    kindest regards,

  • How do I get the music from my iPod into my iTunes library on a new computer without erasing all the songs on my iPod?

    My itunes library is empty on my new computer, but I have a full library on my ipod. How do I "reverse" sync? I don't see an option in itunes to put all the info from my ipod onto my computer. I see it the other way, which would then erase all the data on my ipod. Help!!

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is purchased content.

    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How do I change the title of an album imported into iTunes?

    I have a new MacBook and I am now importing CD's into my iTunes. When I inserted this album I got a message about something being similar, I had no idea what it was referring to so I just selected the top name. I now have imported this album in with the wrong album name. How can I change the album name? I tried inserting the album a second time but it said the songs had already been downloaded. I have the latest version of OS X, and itunes. The downloads have been going smoothly until I did this.
    Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

    Hey there,
    Just locate the album in iTunes and control->click on it and choose Get Info from the menu. From there head over to the Info tab and re-name the Album title to whatever you like. Then hit Ok to apply the changes.
    To highlight all the songs in the album at once hold down the control key as you click on each song or you can select the first song in the album and hold down the shift key and then click the last song of the album to highlight them all.

  • How can in improve the quality or bit rate of my iTunes library.

    I need to improve the quality of my original iTunes library.  How do I  increase the bit rate in iTunes for the library I have downloaded or can I improve what I have or will download.

    iTunes purchases are at 256k in AAC format. If you want better than that you'll need to purchase elsewhere. You can rerip your CDs at your preferred bitrate. If you have some older itunes purchases these could be in 128k protected AAC format. Every now and again the iTunes Store offers links to upgrade such tracks to the current format for a smaller fee than purchasing new copies.

  • How do I get the music from my ipod to my itunes library when I downloaded them from an older computer from a cd?

    A little while ago my old computer that had all my itunes information crashed and I had to get a new computer. I just downloaded itunes to my current computer and I can't figure out how to sync the music from my ipod to my library. When I click sync it only downloads the songs that I bought on itunes and not the ones that were originally from a CD. And when I click "sync music" it pops up a notification that music from my previous library will be removed and my ipod will be synced to my current library with half of my music missing just because I bought them from a CD. So my main question is, how do I get all the songs from my ipod to sync to my computer even though some of it wasn't purchased through itunes?

    For music downloaded from iTunes you should be able to copy it over via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
    For music from CDs you will need a third-party program on your computer to copy them off - there are some listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    You may also find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • CDs with multiple artists are added to the library multiple times I want to be able to add the artwork to all.

    CDs with multiple artists are added to the library multiple times. Usually one has the artwork. I want to add the artwork to the others.  The instructions are inaccurate. I tried it several ways and it does not work.  How do I add the artwork shown on one of the albums to the other albums (same album, different artists)?

    Try Ethernet over Power adapters.. these are very popular for your kind of environment.. being able to make non-wireless link to another area where you can setup a wireless access point.
    Airport Express are not great for wireless power.. if you really have issues with wireless strength in a bad environment apple stuff is not the way to go.
    The comparison chart here.
    http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/lanwan/router-charts/bar/58-2_4-ghz-dn?see=P_F
    This is their worst test location you can also see averages.. the latest airport extreme.. is there a long way down.. and that is a much better wireless device than Airport Express.
    The Ubiquiti power AP is small cheap and designed for precisely this duty.. useless in an apple wireless network.. you will need to run ethernet or EOP adapters back to the main router.. but if the normal omni directional antennas don't provide enough signal you can get directional ones.. I suspect you can cover your whole apartment with a pair of these and high gain directional antenna.
