The album artowrk won't display on my iPod.

To put it basically, the album artwork does not display on my iPod any more. It is shown in iTunes, and when I right-click on a song and look at its "info" It shows the artwork.
I have tried deleting all of the songs and re-adding them from their original files, but nothing happens. What can I do?
All songs have been purchased from iTunes.

Well you should be able to do this with the newest iTunes, I have no trouble doing this.
I just copy/paste an image into the artwork box. This doesn't work for you?
Doing this didn't didn't work in iTunes 7, but does in iTunes 7.0.1.

Photocast messes up the picture order of the album and won't sync w/ iPod

I spent a lot of time organizing a couple of hundred pics in chronologic order and everything looks fine when viewed in iPhoto on my computer. Then I photocasted the pics to family and myself so I could view it on a different computer. Well, all the pics are in the wrong order on the Photocast. Plus, the album now won't sync with my iPod. I duplicated the album and then it would go to my iPod, however, all the pics are in the wrong order just like the Photocast.
I ended up unpublishing the album, deleting the messed up copy album and then everything was fine again on the iPod.
Any way to preserve the exact order of the pictures in the album and get it to still copy onto the iPod? Is this just a bug?

I got through to Apple tech support to a guy who was nice enough, but was clearly just searching the database to answer the question (like I already had on the Internet) and he didn't really understand my questions completely. Initially I got the feeling he was just going to tell me- sorry he couldn't answer my questions, until I asked him if he could please ask a supervisor or someone else.
Bottom line, photocasting will put your pictures in order by date and cannot be changed unless you manually change the date in the info section of iPhoto for each picture. So all the effort in rearranging pictures doesn't matter unless the dates are chronologic.
I have no intention of manually changing the dates of over 1,000 family pictures I have scanned into the computer over the last 5 years. Oh well, at least the real date is in the title of each picture I imported.
He said he couldn't find anything on why a photocasted album wouldn't sync with the iPod. So I said, "Did you ask anyone else?", then he put me on hold and said he would try and find out.
The answer to the 2nd question is that No-shared libraries/photocasted albums will not copy over the iPod. You would have to duplicate the album, but then you may lose any arranging you've done (again the pics will be ordered by date if by digital camera or date imported if scanned).
I now know that any scanned pictures will have to have manually changed dates. I am too lazy right now to go back and fix years of scanning and importing. I just won't use Photocasting for now and hopefully in the future there will some sort of Preference choice on how to sort the photos other than date.
Cheers

Some album artwork won't display on iPad

Hi guys,
Some of the song's album artwork won't display on my iPad or iPhone but shows up against each song in the album on iTunes on my Mac. There are entire albums' artwork not showing, yet when I open and play the same song in iTunes on my mac, it's there.
Any ideas?

in iTunes, choose to not *display Album Artwork on your iPod*, then sync your iPod, then change it back to display album artwork and sync again. I believe that will fix it.

Delete the songs with no artwork on your iPad and resync your music from iTunes on your computer.

My music is organized on my computer but the songs under the albums are out of order on my ipod, they weren't before, i've restored, still out of order. what do i do to get them in order?

Have you tried creating a playlist for your album, then
select the playlist in iTunes.
right-click the playlist name -> select +copy to play order+. -> sync.

Hi NYYJMM,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You may want to reset your iPod nano and then sync again. If the issue persists, restore your iPod and try again. See these articles for the steps:

Some album artwork won't display on iPod Classic

I've had a strange problem recently with my new iPod Classic(and, come to think of it, my 2nd gen. iPod Nano): certain album artwork won't properly display, but will instead show up as a black square(like the 5th Metallica album, or the Spinal Tap album...). Sometimes, this happens only with certain songs on an album. For instance, I purchased 2 songs from the album "Employment" by Kaiser Chiefs last year. Recently, I purchased the CD, and I imported it to my computer. I chose "get album artwork" so the album cover would display for the newly imported songs, as well as the 2 I already bought. Now, the 2 songs I bought last year display their artwork normally, but the newly imported tracks just display the black square.
What's going on, and how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance..

Album Cover won't display properly

I just purchased a TV Season of a show, and every episode downloaded properly, but the Album Art cover does not display correctly. I really hope I don't have to delete, and purchase this season again. Has this happened to anyone else? How is there a way to fix it?

I have a 9 GB iPOD touch and this very thing happen to me. I can see the artwork via iTUNES but some of the artwork would not transfer to the iPOD. When looking at the album covers on the iPOD you'd just get a blank area where the album artwork would be.
I was unable to find any place inside of iTUNES or on my iPOD that would allow me to select or deselect artwork artwork as has been stated above.
My solution was to do a restore to factory settings. After I did this and did not use the back up... that may have been messed up too... All my artwork was there and the iPOD seems to be acting much better... it was sluggish after I updated to 2.x
Anyway if anyone is having issues and you have not resolved it try doing the restore as if it was a new iPOD.

Album covers won't display in Cover Flow mode.

I've just recently re-installed my Windows XP, re-installed iTunes, and re-installed all my music again from my back-up discs. My iTunes is working fine ie plays the music, searches, displays iTunes store etc. However, when I click on the Cover View icon when playing an album it states, 'iTunes unable to browse album covers on this computer'. The album covers show up in the list/album view but not in cover view. It didn't do this before. Maybe it's something simple I've missed - any ideas?

Does this article help?

Album art won't display on ipod screen

i just rec'd the new 60gb ipod for xmas and i can't figure out how to make the album art display on the screen. can anyone help me?

the album art has to first be imported into iTunes for it to show up on iPod. To do this, open a site like google and do image searches on the albums (don't go above 300x300 pixels or it'll take up too much space). Then, open the song edit and drag the album art into the space for it. repeat for all discs and then update iPod, should work fine.

Album artwork won't display on iPod?

I have been struggling with this problem for awhile now -- any help would be appreciated!
When I have my iPod plugged into my computer, I can see all of the album artwork that is set for my music on my iPod through iTunes. However, when my iPod is playing on its own, none of the album artwork will display. I have "display album artwork" set in the options. I have tried unchecking this option, ejecting the iPod from the computer, reconnecting the iPod, then rechecking the option, but this hasn't worked. Any ideas how I can fix this?

I believe this may have to do with how you are assigning the artwork to the albums. It seems like you have to assign the album art to every song in the album in order for it to show correctly on your ipod. For example, if you have a song playing in iTunes and you paste the artwork in the "paste artwork here" in the lower left corner; that is only updating the current song (even if you select multiple).
I have found the easiest thing to do is as follows (windows):
Highlight all the songs in an album. Right click-->Get Album Artwork. Pray that works. If iTunes can't find the artwork then plan B:
1) go to Amazon.com or or google images and find an image and the copy (just right click-->copy).
2) select all songs for an album-->right-click-->Get Info-->Check "Artwork", right-click-->paste

Artist name/album artwork won't change on my ipod 4g

After I change the artist names and album artwork on itunes and then press "sync", they should be changed right away on my ipod, right? THEY DO NOT GET CHANGED. does this syncing problem (or a slow reaction prob) only occuring to me? I called the customer service today and they simply told me to restore it. I tried restoring my ipod more than three times because of this. Is there any solution to this? Should I go and get a replacement to apple store? I own a new ipod 4g white with ipos 5.0.1.

i called them again and they told me if I want to change the album artwork + names of the songs that are already in the ipod (under device>music), I have to DELETE those songs. After that, I have to go to library>music and then change the settings there and then ADD THEM BACK to my ipod. I thought it's simply stupid and inconvenient.
