Album art is showing in itunes but not on my ipod

I have a new 60GB ipod video and am having a problem with album artwork. It shows in all the right windows in itunes but not on the ipod itself.
The problem is affecting random songs (singles and odd album tracks) and is not as a result of any software updates.
I have tried unchecking and rechecking the 'display album art' option in preferences, deleting and reinserting the covers and even deleting and reimporting the affected songs from scratch. So far nothing has worked and I don't know what else to do!
Any suggestions?
Apple iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3) ipod 60GB with video

Thanks but still no luck I'm afraid.
To update: I have been using itunes 6 from the outset and have always manually updated the ipod - it has never even been switched to automatic as I changed this at the start (advice from a friend). File formats for the affected tracks are all either AIFF or Apple Lossless - same as all the unaffected tracks.
The even stranger thing is that artwork for some albums, where all the tracks were imported manually at the same time, shows for some tracks on the ipod and not others. The artwork does, however, show for all of the tracks on the ipod when viewed through itunes!

When you connect the iPod the summary screen should automatically open.
If you click on the 'music' tab, you will see the options to:
"display album artwork on your iPod". Make sure that is enabled.

Album and artist showing in itunes, but not in manual sync

I have a 8 gig ipod touch and my library is larger so I have to select to manually add artists on my ipod. The problem is the artist I want isn't appearing in the artist section in sync. the artist is in itunes library but will not appear and doesn't come up in the search bar.
Can anybody please help me fix this issue, I need to listen to some Sublime.

perhaps what turingtest2 suggested in another thread helps:
To display all artists in the Artists menu on your iPod, even those who only appear on compilations, remove the ticks against both of the iPod Compilation menu items, i.e.
Settings > Main Menu > Music > Compilations
Settings > Music Menu > Compilations
Cover flow should remain the same, with all compilations albums listed at the right-hand end.
To display all artists in the Artists browser column in iTunes turn off the preference to Group compilations when browsing. Provided you have set the Album Artist field the albums should remain grouped together.

The music on my ipod touch (2nd gen) is showing on itunes, but not on my ipod.

I plugged my ipod touch (2nd gen) into my computer to charge it over night. When I woke up and disconnected it, there was only three songs on it. I then plugged it back in and it said that all 1700 were there. I dont know what to do, PLEASE HELP!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

The latest episode in it is 23 July: the later episodes haven't made it into the feed so either the connection to Feedburner has failed or there is something about the recent episodes which is causing them not to make it into the feed. It's not obvious from looking at the web page what this might be.

That is correct. If it is an iPod Classic 5th generation it doesn't connect to the Internet it can't download anything.

Select all the songs you want to be in one album, right click and choose "Get Information", delete the album name, if any, and type the one you want. You can also paste the Artwork in the right bottom box. Then click "Accept".

No, you should have Restrictions OFF.
Computer's iTunes > Preferences > Parental Preferences > everything should be unchecked.
Are the songs also on computer's iTunes?

I've had this problem and you have to hook up the images to the songs before you sync it to your ipod. Think its some Itunes 7 issue

Album artwork shows in iTunes but not on ipod

Hello all, I have a 30g video ipod and am having trouble getting the album artwork to show up. In itunes I have clicked the show or hide album art button and when I click ipod in the source list and play the song I have loaded the album art onto I can see it in the bottom left. I have also clicked the options button and the display album art box is checked. The artwork still doesnt show on my ipod.
Is there something else I need to do to get it to work?
Thanks,
Joe

Yes, it is safe. You're simply putting your iPod back to its original state as it was when new. To do this, you should have an 'iPod Software Updater' folder somewhere either in your Control Panel or simply on Drive C. I'm on a Mac and its in my applications folder.
Anyhow, when you find the folder, just open it up and you'll see your iPod update files. Choose the most recent one and double click. It will then give you the option to "restore" your iPod to its original state. Once you do this, your iPod will be completely erased and you can start from scratch.
I'm glad you got your images to appear once again. You can use the info above for future reference in case you need it.

Wrong Art Work shows in iTunes but is correct in both "Get Info" and Internet Explorer

I am using Window 7 ultimate; itunes 11.0.2.25. I put album art on a song (right click, get info, artwork, delete anything there, add my artwork). Now shows correct in "get info" (and also shows correct in Windows Explorer) ... but doesn't show correct in iTunes. I have deleted and retried multiple times ... works for some song but does not work for MANY songs. Suggestions? Since it also shows correct in Windows Explorer not even sure how to change it manually outside of iTunes .. it still show an OLD album cover (not even sure where it get is)

I believe the album was only load for one of the tracks. This can happen if the album art was NOT from the Apple Store. Go into iTunes on your Mac and select the album in question. Click on each track and confirm art on the lower left hand corner. If it's blank, ctrl-click on the artwork to copy and paste it into the lower left hand corner. You can also select all tracks and paste the artwork into the lower left hand corner.
Let us know if this works.

One song is showing up in itunes but not on my iPod?

One of my songs that I added is showing up in iTunes and I think when I synced my iPod before the song showed up. But later on, when I synced my iPod, a notification showed up saying that "this song "song name here" will not sync because it won't play in my iPod". I hastily read the notification so I am not exactly sure what it said, but the song does work in iTunes and everything, like there is nothing wrong with it. But, how do I get it onto my iPod? I've tried a bunch of things, but nothing seems to work.

i have the same issue.
i had songs on my iphone. I had to turn off music match & icloud & manually sync with iTunes which removed the songs with my iphone.
But when i go to iTunes, slect my device, and go to music, all my deleted items are there. Some with the ! and some with the sync symbol.
I even went to my iPhone, & deleted the album and re-download from iCloud. Same thing happens.

Music shows up in iTunes but not on the iPod

I'm not sure what to do next. One of the CDs I had on my iPod just disappeared the other night. I thought it might have been my deck in my car, so I unplugged it and then searched on the iPod itself for the CD, and it didn't show up there either. So I came home and I connected the iPod to my computer and in iTunes, I clicked on the iPod, and it said the CD was there. So I unplugged it and checked on my iPod again, and the CD still wasn't showing up. I reconnected it to the computer and checked it AGAIN in iTunes and it still said that the CD was on my iPod. I reset it with the center button and menu, and then I checked it again and on my iPod it wasn't there, but it still showed up in iTunes as being on my iPod. So I deleted them off of the iPod, reburnt the CD, put the files onto the iPod, and in iTunes it said the songs were on the iPod. So I checked it on the actual iPod, and they weren't there! I updated the software and everything and tried it again, but it still didn't fix the problem. It's just one CD I'm having trouble with, everything else works fine, and back when the CD showed up in my iPod it played fine. Any suggestions?

hmmmmm. we'd better quickly check to see if you're getting a Windows drive letter confusion. for troubleshooting advice on that one, see:
Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
