Album art does not add to ripped songs.

Hello. Earlier, I ripped a Classical CD using iTunes, of course, to be added to my library (MP3 Encoder). I decided to download the album art from Google images and did some quick editing in Photoshop and saved it into a JPEG file format. I am sure that the image works because I tried it into other songs in my library and they worked.
However, when I was attaching it (all the items were already highlighted), iTunes rejects the picture and it does not show up on 'Get Info'. I decided to drag it and then this is what shows up:
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for such a quick reply. My itunes is up to date but my iphone is 4.2.1 and I am afraid to upgrade because it is jailbroken and unlocked running on tmobile. It was a very difficult jailbreak/unlock but i persevered. I think the phone is a frankenstein. modem firmware is 6.15.0 and i had to root the phone to jailbreak it because the wifi doesn't work (antenna may be broken). With all this info do you think i should upgrade?

  • Album Art does not download while purchasing songs from iTunes

    Hi !
    Of late, music I have purchased from iTunes does not seem to download the album art ie: the music downloads fine, but there is no album art with it, despite the fact that on the iTunes site it DOES have album art when advertised.
    Has anyone else had this situation, if so, is there a fix ?
    Note this is happening only recently.
    Thanks !

    Thanks, Mimico Kid! Your suggestion was extremely easy and worked like a charm!
    I basically went to Amazon.com like you suggested, searched for all of my cd's in the Amazon music section. Once each cd was listed, I enlarged the album cover to its largest size and then right-clicked on the largest image and then "saved as" the name of the cd in a separate, Album Art folder that I created in the "My Pictures" folder on my c drive. Then I opened iTunes and the Album covers folder that I created and dragged the jpeg of the album cover into the section of iTunes on the lower left side where users are prompted to drag album art.
    Here's a hint to significantly quicken the transfer of album art from your separately created "Album Art" folder on your hard (c:) drive to iTunes: select all of the songs of a particular cd listed in your iTunes library before you drag the album art over from your separately created "Album Art" folder. That way, when you do drag the album art over, it will be applied to all of the selected songs - this saves lots of time if you have multiple tracks from CDs in your iTunes library.

  • Album Art does not show up when using shuffle.

    When I turn on shuffle in my 80gb Classic the album art does not show up.
    It is about 50/50 some songs will show art and some will not. The art that did not show up the last time I shuffled will show up this time. It is not consistant. When I am not in shuffle the art always shows up just fine.
    Anyone having this problem? Any ideas on how to stop this from happening? Thanks, Robert

    You might also recreate your iTunes library on your computer... and then when you connect your iPod you should be presented with a dialogue asking you to erase & sync the iPod. Click the erase & sync button (provided your songs are still in iTunes).
    Here's how to recreate your library:

  • My album art does not make it onto my iPhone 4S when I drag music over from my iMax in iTunes.

    I have an iPhone 4S and the latest iMac.  I manually manage my content on my iPhone - I don't have anything automatically sync on it.  But when I drag music over to my iPhone the album art does not travel with it.  I have most of my audio in AIFF format in iTunes - other than stuff I buy digitally.  I have found that once the audio is over on my phone, I then have to copy the artwork over not once but TWICE before it will update on the phone and show up.  It does work though and that is fine.
    My problem now is I purchase digital 'compilations' where each track has a different album cover because they come from different albums.  I just dragged over 250+ tracks and I'm not going to go in 1 by 1 and copy the album covers over twice for each track. 
    My phone used to update properly but in the last few months it stopped doing it properly so I'm wondering if there is something that needs to be reset on it to get it to work properly again.
    I have all the files on my iPhone coverted to 128K for size issues and all my files in iTunes are at least 320K or higher so they all get down-converted when they are moved onto the iPhone.  I assume the artwork is somehow getting 'lost' in this conversion process.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Cool - yeah I grabbed that script as well.  Going to go through my library and run that one as well.  Seems to only be able to handle X amount of tracks at a time so will have to do it step by step.  I have about 21000 tracks in my library and it didn't like doing all at one time
    Its fine if it compresses the images a bit - not a big deal.  Its only on my phone so its fine.  I'm probably a bit anal about things but I hate having tracks on my phone with no images - if there are images available.
    Thanks again!

  • Album Art Does Not Resize in Album Art Panel

    For some reason some of my album art does not fill up or resize when I resize the album art panel (the lower left hand side of itunes). This happens only with some, not all, of my art. Some additional background:
    - No problem with album art in cover flow or grid views
    - album art was embedded in file by another program (not itunes)
    - Occurs in itunes 7 and itunes 8
    - for the album art that is a problem, the art does not fill in the album art panel and therefore when i resize the panel, it just stays the same size.

    I still don't understand why it would scale in the other views (cover flow and list view)
    Who knows? The artwork preview panel pre-dates Cover Flow, so when Cover Flow was intoduced and made to scale art up as well as down, perhaps nobody considered revisiting the code for the artwork panel to make it work the same way. However, I find the existing behaviour quite handy for spotting when I have images that are too small, since these generally don't scale well. I have my artwork panel set to fit my minimum acceptable size of 200x200 pixels so if I ever notice a white border I know to try and find better quality art.

  • Album art does not match artist

    About 50% of the album art does not match the artist titles on the iPod. In iTunes they are fine. I've reset and resynced. Any ideas?
    thanks

    If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
    iTunes 6
    1. Connect your iPod
    2. Disable "Show Album art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
    3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes. (Disconnecting and then reconnecting your iPod will do the trick)
    4. Re-enable "Show Album Art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
    5. Syncronise the iPod again.
    iTunes 7
    1. Connect your iPod
    2. Disable "Display album artwork" in iPod>Music tab and click Apply.
    3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes.
    4. Re-enable "Display album artwork" in iPod>Music tab and click Apply.
    5. Syncronise the iPod again.

  • IPod album art does not match song

    Whenever I play songs on my iPod the album art is messed up. The art does not show up with the correct song and I don't know what to do. I have checked and all of the album art is correct on the computer. I don't know what is wrong with my iPod and I would like to be able to solve this problem without having to send my iPod out to Apple. Any advice would be helpful. Thank you.

    If you have an iTunes store account, you can use the "get album artwork" option in iTunes. You don't actually need to purchase anything from the iTunes store, just to have or create an account. Provided that the album or song for which you are looking to add artwork is available for sale in the store, iTunes will find it and add it to your library.
    If you go to preferences/general in iTunes and check the box marked "automatically download missing album artwork", it will automatically add the artwork when you import a CD into iTunes.
    One downside to this is that if you have an album or song misspelled in your iTunes library, it may not be found by iTunes because it will be looking for a match.
    See: How to add artwork using iTunes.
    If you don't have an account or don't want to create one, here are a couple of other methods.
    First off, make sure you have "show album art" enabled in iPod options.
    Highlight a song or album in iTunes, then right click on it and select the "get album artwork" option.

Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images. 

Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image". 

When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes. 

Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste. 

You'd be surprised what Google Images can bring up. There are literally millions, and even obscure album artwork can be found.
    In the unlikely event that Google can’t find an image, you can also get artwork from Amazon.
    If you’re happy using images from Amazon, and don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a nice free program to do it for you.

  • Album Art does not appear unless I buy from iTunes

    I imported hundreds of cd's into my iTunes library and I noticed that the album art was not appearing. The only album art that appears on my color iPod is from the songs that I purchase from iTunes. Can anyone tell me if I can get the album art from my CDs to appear in my iTunes library and on my iPod? Thanks for any suggestions.

    Thanks, Mimico Kid! Your suggestion was extremely easy and worked like a charm!

  • HT1409 Album Art Does Not Work With WAV Files

    I seem to have discovered that album artwork does not "stick" to files in WAV format.  Is this true?  If so, it should be mentioned in this article.

  • Album art does not show up??

    I have a 30gb ipod photo and its wierd.. i sent it in for repair cause of an unrelated issue but now when i update my ipod... the album art doesnt show up for some songs even though its physically there on my computer and the art checkbox is checked. i have too much music on my computer for my ipod so i update via playlist, the only conclusion i could ammount to is that i am using Smart playlists but even the songs that show the art are from the smart playlists. i dont know what i should do? if anybody can help me it would be amazing!

    Michael,
    You may want to uncheck that box you refer to, click okay, and eject your iPod. Then go back and recheck the box.
    If this doesn't work, you may want to restore...

  • Album art does not match songs after syncing iPhone on new iTunes

    Hi,
    I recently updated my iTunes to version 11.1.12.  After doing so, I soon realized that the album art for my songs does not transfer to my iPhone correctly.  On iTunes the album art for each song is matched correctly, but when I sync it to my phone, my phone displays artwork for other songs.  So when I have song 1 and song 2, the album art for song 1 is tagged with song 2 on my iPhone...i'm very frustrated and have tried everything but a hard reset which i'm REALLY hoping I don't have to do.
    HELP HELP HELP!!

    I've had this same problem a couple times. First time I didn't have a clue as to cause but fixed it by unsyncing all music (removing it from phone) and resyncing it back on. This latest time the miss matched artwork occurred on albums I bought on my iPad and then sync'd to my computer and then to my iPhone. Artwork is fine on the iPad and computer (iTunes 10.0.1.22 on XP machine). Artwork shows as other albums for only new purchased albums from iPad. I haven't had time to do the unsyncing and resyncing but will do it this soon and report in to verify that it worked (or didn't). I'm hoping the artwork the iTunes couldn't find, and I did from various places on the net, will be there when I resync the music.

  • Album art does not correspond with song

    My album art doesnt correspon with my song example: life in the fast lane b van halen instead of the Eagles!! How can i fix? Any info would help. Thanks.

    I had the same problem and the only thing I could get to work was to erase everything on the ipod and reload it back from itunes. First I had to put all ipod files on my hard drive, clean out itunes and reload the saved files back to itunes and then back on the ipod. I think 1 of the songs has a bad id3 tag that messed it up. But after clearing everything out and then reloading it fixed it. Good luck

  • Some album art does not show!!!

    Running iTunes 8 and have converted my whole CD collection using Easy CD Extractor. The files are converted to AAC+ and are easily imported into iTunes using the Add Folder... BUT the funny thing is that when I then try to import album arts which I have scanned from my CD:s original covers there are some albums that will not show even if I am using exactly the same procedure for every other imported song, the same file format (jpeg), same resolution and size How is it possible that a few of my albums will not show any album art even if they are processed exactly the same way as all the other CD:s in my collection??? I have tried both drag and drop, as well as doing it from within the "Info... dialogue".

    Thanks Katrina, I did try this (or part of it before I saw your link to the excellent article on how to do this properly). But I have a couple of problems with this explanation (which could still be correct). First when I was iTunes in Vista in "normal"-mode, I was still able to add album arts to most of my albums (all comming from my CD:s, ripped with the same software, etc) and residing in the same folder (Music)... So how is it possible that SOME of my music files are "locked", and as you suggest, read-only, and some are not??? This might still be "correct", it is possible, but then it is clearly a bug in Vista. Secondly I am the only user of this computer, logged in as an Adminstrator. Still, Vista could of course mark some of my music files as read only, but I still concider that as a bug on the Vista part.
    What is even more annoying is that iTunes did not notified me that it could add the album art, it just didn't without explanation, the same did TagScanner. Only MP3Tag did give me feed back that it could not write the album art to the file. I assume it would not be such a difficult task to add a feature to iTunes that will notify the user that it is unable to add album art because of this and that, and suggest (like you did) a way to solve the problem...

  • Album art does not show on iPod

    Only the album art from Apple Store purchase is showing up on my iPod. Any art that I imported to iTunes for my own cd's does not show on the iPod. Some of the art came from the Apple "get album art" some I got off the net.
    I have iPod v1.2.
    Thanx for any thoughts
    HP m7250n   Windows XP   60g video ipod iTunes 7.0

    Try to disable album art on your iPod, then sync it,
    then enable artwork again, sync it again and it
    should be okay...assuming all the album art appears
    in iTunes.
    I've had this same problem and it's worked for me.
    I manually add songs onto my Ipod and then delete them from Itunes.
    Wouldn't syncing my Ipod erase all the songs that are currently on it only adding what is currently in my Itunes Library?

  • Album art does not always show.

    I posted this question before, but never found an answer.
    Album art works most of the time, but not always.
    After ripping a CD, I highlight all songs, get the info dialog, and drop the album art on the info dialog. This works most of the time. But not always. Sometimes, there is a song on a CD that does not appear to have any album art at all. Sometimes it shows the incorrect album art that iTunes had automatically downloaded.
    For example, I'm just listening to my "Ultra Dance 02" album on my iPod. I remember that after ripping, iTunes incorrectly added album art for "Ultra.iDance 05". I fixed that by select-all, get-info, and drag-and-dropping the correct art. After syncing with my iPod, all songs show the correct "Ultra Dance 02" artwork, except for track 6, which still shows "Ultra.iDance 05"
    What's going on? How do I ensure that the changes that I make stick? And how do I fix such an error?
    Also, is there a way to associate album art with a whole album, rather than each song individually?
    -Ron.

    Even if iTunes recognized it, you cannot use iTunes to transfer from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). You need to use a third-party program. Here is an article on that topic.
    http://lifehacker.com/394046/copy-music-from-your-iphone-or-ipod-to-your-compute r-for-free
    However, if your hard drive's data is in bad shape, it may be difficult to recover all of your songs files.
    Note: The hard drive may have data corruption, but the iPod may work better after you use the Restore button in iTunes. The Restore process erases the iPod and initializes the iPod's software. It won't fix a hardware problem if the drive is becoming faulty. But it may fix the problem if it is only data corruption.
