Album art doesn't stick

When I cut and paste album art into the get info window it doesn't show up the next time I get info even though image shows in the album list. Why is this?

If the purchases are from iTunes you should be able to download them again for free (if supported in your region) from the iTunes Store's "Purchased" tab as outlined in the support document, below.

Alternatively, in iTunes 11, you can simply select "View" from the menu bar and select "Show Music in the Cloud" to show music not locally stored on your computer but stored in iTunes in the Cloud.

If you select multiple songs and choose Get Info, the Album Art box will always be blank, even if the individual songs each have the same common Art. This is expected behavior.
Copying the Art directly to the iPod will never work. If your iTunes displays the Art fine, and the nano doesn't, your problem is likely to be a firmware issue with the iPod. I would suggest performing a "restore" and then try again. Otherwise, if issues remain, reinstall iTunes if more than one XP user is affected.

Everytime I update my ipod - loading new songs - my Album art doesn't show

I don't know if this has been happening to other ppl, but ever since I updated my ipod to newer version of OS4, my album art doesn't show up when it locks to home screen. When I go into music - it shows that the album art is there, but when I lock my ipod, the album art doesn't show up. But when I turn off and on again, it works again. It's just really annoying to always turn off my ipod and on again. And also I've noticed that after updating my ipod (loading new songs) it seems really slow - but when I turn if off and on again - it works normally.
I Don't have lots of songs or movies - I have used a little over half of the space. It's just that these things only happened right after I updated my OS to newer iOS4!
Can either someone make a better iOS4 or something?

Try deleting the songs from your iPod, then in your iTunes library delete the album art and reload the album art back to the songs and put them back on your iPod.

Album art doesn't automatically download after import

Whenever I import a new C.D., the album art for that album doesn't automatically download, even though I have that option checked as yes in my iTunes preferences. So, I wind up having to get the album art myself. What gives? Anyone else having similar problems? Any suggestions?

Using windows version, I can't update multiple songs either. Neither drag-and-drop from an IE window or copy&paste work when several songs are highlighted, but it works fine when it's only one. I haven't tried to update multiple via the "info" screen yet (at work atm). It seems to affect both mac and PC :/ it worked fine on v6.

Album Art doesn't work

Recently, when I put album art on the iPod, it won't recognize it. Roughly about 2/3 of the songs on the iPod will display the art but the other fraction doesn't even recognize it. It shows up fine in iTunes, both on the hard drive and the iPod and I've already tried unchecking and rechecking the "Display Album Artwork..." box and nothing works. This problem only occurs to newer additions, but not to all of them. If it's any help, I get all my artwork from Amazon. Thanks

Are the songs on your computer?
You could use one of these options to move the music back onto your computer before you restore...

You also can search the Discussions and the Internet (via Google) for more options.
Also, there are a few other options in that user tip (other than restoring or unchecking and rechecking the display artwork option).

My iPod album art doesn't work anymore

i had a similar problem, with the ipod pluged in got to ipod prefrences and un-check the show album art box and then check it agian it worked for mine. hope it will work for you as well.

Get Album Art doesn't work

I've been confused by this since v.7 came out but it hasn't really bugged me till now.. but the Get Album Artwork function simply doesn't work for me. It doesn't do a **** thing. I click it and it seems like iTunes doesn't even do anything, and album artwork certainly does not appear in my library. Yes, I'm logged in to my iTS account.
Am I doing something wrong here? I haven't really been able to find someone else who has this problem.

GM Axis,
I can understand your frustration, and since most of my music was purchased from the iTunes Store, and tend to be only 1 genre, I sat down with my wife's computer and her iTunes Library.
Once I got the tags for album and artist straightened out, we were able to find 100 out of 104 albums via the iTunes Store. However, the key was correcting spelling, and album names. For example: My son imported a bunch of Elvis CDs after hearing him in Lilo and Stitch. He spelled Presley as Prezley. Correcting the tags with Get Info takes a while. You can select all the songs from a specific album and Get info on that all at once, and change multiple items at once.
The others include B-side singles never released in the US we imported from tape, and an album by a group that was never on CD, and the regional label is out of business.

IPod scrambles the album art & doesn't play music, vids or pics

i bought this ipod brand new about a month ago from apple. It has messed up three times since. What happens is that it just stops working. I can't view any pics, video or listen to music. my cover flow turns each album cover to rondom colors all scrambled up. At the main menue when i go over pics, music or video it shows me the picture. but it won't play anything. When i reset it and put everything back on it it works......for a week or two. I think i will return it but if there is anything i could otherwise do please say so
thanks!!!!!!!!

ITunes art doesn't stick

I've recently imported some CDs into iTunes. I find artwork on the internet and paste it in. A few days later I see that some of what I had pasted has disappeared. Why does this happen? I'm using iTunes 10.6.1 and I have iTunes Match. The tracks that I am refering to have been matched by iTunes Match. This is incredibly annoying.

After trying a billion different things, I finally sucked it up and decided to restore my iPod and that apparently fixed the problem.
As to why it happened, I have a suspicion that it had to do with plugging the iPod in different USB ports (on the same computer, when my old iPod was also connected). I know it doesn't make much sense, but that's the only thing I can think of.

Windows 7 Music Library doesn't show some of my album art all of a sudden. No solutions found!!

So my music files in my music folder on the computer still doesn't show the album art. some of the art covers still exist on the music files but newly downloaded and some music files that existed don't show the album art anymore.
I've tried most of the solutions online but none of them solved the problem. I don't think it's the media player because when I play it on the media player it shows the album art for the music. And I also cleared the cashe in the mediaplayer folder. There
must be something with the system because the folder showed the cover art before but all of a sudden it stopped displaying them.
I don't know what's wrong with it...is there something that makes the music album art not show all of a sudden and the album art doesn't show for the newly downloaded music as well...

Hi haydnan
It may be a problem of Windows 7 Explorer. First you can try all the different explorer views, title, Large icon..
If there is no effect, you can try to the following methods.
In Windows Explorer
1. left click on the mail folder where your music is stored and select it.
2. Now right click and go to “properties”.
3. Now click “advanced”.
4. Put a check in the “Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties”.
5.Click ”OK”.
6.Click”Apply”.
7. Click “OK” to apply changes to this folder. Sub folders and files.
Now go to your music library and see if it works.

Album Art - some albums will not allow art to be added manually - help?

I've searched the archive for an answer to this, but haven't found a solution.
I'm importing many of my CD's into iTunes, some of which I have to add the album art manually. For the most part this works just fine, as I go to "Info," and drag the art into the art window.
But here's the problem - there are some albums that just WILL NOT display the art. I drag the art to the window, and it appears there, but does not "stick." When you play another song, then go back to the previous, the artwork is gone again.
I've tried adding the art in every way I know how: drag to the window that says "drag artwork here" in the main window; going to "get info" then "artwork" and dragging the art into that window; and also clicking the "add" button and navigating to the stored art file...the result is always the same - the art doesn't stick. This is only for some albums; the majority work just fine.
I've cleared the album art cache, with no change, and have also set the ID3 tag to "none" for the problematic albums (based on a suggestion in another posting). Both of these had no effect on the results - the art still won't stick.
I'm at wit's end - anyone have a suggestion??

Manual syncing seems a very inefficient method to use - it my experience its much easier to associate one or more playlists with your iDevice and then automatically sync to that. Doing it this way allows you to set up what you want to sync without the iDevice being connected, and also allows you to manage what gets synced completely, since you can remove albums from the playlist so that they're automatically deleted from your iDevice next time you sync.

I dont always get my songs from itunes, how can i get the album art?

When I download a song on a place other than iTunes, the album art doesn't show. How can I get it to?

If you don't buy your music from itunes you can go to amazon.com and simply copy the artwork from their and paste it into itunes. Select the appropriate album or track within your itunes, right click and then select 'get info'then paste it into the artwork box on the right hand side!

Automatically download Album Art

Hi,
Is it possible to get iTunes to automatically download album art when a song is loaded and played?
I have my cd collection ripped but the album art doesn't come up for them.

You can set iTunes to download artwork from the iTunes Music Store. Go to iTunes>Preferences>General and enable "Automatically download missing album artwork". If the iTunes Store doesn't have the album you want the artwork for you can locate and add some yourself:
iTunes 7 for Mac - Adding artwork to songs and other items
iTunes: How to Add Artwork to Songs
If you have a look on the Apple downloads page you can find programs for the Mac that help locate and add album artwork. This is one I came across with a quick search of the site: Album Cover Finder 6.0
I have found this site is a useful resource for finding artwork to manually download: CD/Album Cover Art Search from SlothRadio

Split screen not previewing album art

Hi - I've done a search and couldn't find any answers, hope I'm posting in the right place etc.
I bought an 80GB iPod classic a few weeks ago but this morning a work colleage took my iPod without my knowledge, and plugged it in to his computer; it initially failed to install drivers and froze up, he then unplugged it and I reset (held down "menu" and centre buttons). The iPod worked perfectly after the reset.
He then took it again and tried to use it with Winamp - the drivers installed this time - and he copied all of my music across to his hard drive through winamp (all of which occurred without my permission).
After he ejected the ipod, there were lots of problems, most of which I have resolved, but the seemingly impossible one is that album art doesn't preview on the right side of the screen when I have menus up anymore. This is one of the main reasons I bought the iPod Classic - for the sleek interface - and I'm really frustrated I can't fix it. There are also some problems with album art appearing when I play songs - it appears in Cover Flow, but once I play a song from that album, the standard apple 'note' symbol appears on the left of the screen.
Any ideas? Please? I'm desperate and very upset as I just bought this.
Thanks!

Try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7
