Album art not showing in album list view

the album art is there, has been manually added, but is not always showing in album list view.
none of the albums has been purchased from itunes, all are manual import from physical cds, where the album art has been added manually.
albums seem to either show or not show album art (i.e. it appears to be the same for all albums every time i start itunes. restarting itunes also does not help). re-adding album art does not make any difference.
this started to happen several software updates ago and has continued until the current version.
does anyone know how to force itunes to display album art?
thanks

iTunes > view > always show artwork

  • Album art not showing in album list but is there

    In the list of albums, some of the album art is not showing, but when I click to view the song list, it is there. See screenshot which explains it much  better.
    Any ideas on how to fix. (Reimporting album art does not work)

    Gonna give this a bit of a bump - sorry.

  • Album Art not showing up?

    Has anyone else had a problem with their album art not showing up in coverflip? These are all CD's that I own and ripped onto my computer with iTunes, and if I look at them in iTunes I can see the cover art. But when I turn my ipod sideways to flip through the albums, I see a bunch of black squares. Some of the albums I can see the artwork when it's not the selected album, but if I scroll to it, the art disappears and it's just an empty black square. The only albums where this seems to work properly are the ones I bought and downloaded digitally through iTunes, but most of my music collection is CD's, so I'm really hoping there's a way to fix this.
    I've already tried googling pictures of the album art and re-tagging the songs with the picture on there, and it does do a sync afterwards, but I'm still seeing black squares. I also tried deleting one of the albums from my ipod entirely, and reloading it, and that worked the first time I went into coverflip, but in subsequent tries it has reverted back to being just a black square.

    use the search discussions box. there are loads of threads on this. you definitely aren't alone
    the only real solution i've seen is to re-sync the problem tracks, i've probably missed some though, so it's worth looking around.

  • Old All-Day events not showing in Calendar List View

    Reviewing events in my Calendar on the iPhone and have noticed that All Day Events that are older than one year do not show in the "List" view
    For example, I have all my holidays in a calendar called "Vacation". Month and Day view list holidays from earlier than today (09 Sept 2008) properly, however list view shows nothing. Timed events (e.g. day trips) in the same calendar show.
    Similarly no Birthdays appear in the past. I can see a case for Birthdays being omitted in the past, but not other events (e.g. wanting to know exactly when you went to that all day wedding last summer)

    I have this same exact problem. For me, past events that have a specific time associated with them show up in List view; however, past events that are all day events only show in List view once in a blue moon only. Apple support has been absolutely clueless about this issue. They just tell me it's weird and they have no explanation. It's unbelievably annoying though.

  • Calendar events not showing up in list view

    Hi,
    some of my events are not showing up in list view. They are synced to the iphone. I can see them in day and month view.
    It seems to me that events created with ical and synced through MM are not showing up, but I'm not sure.
    Any idea?
    Wilfried.

    Yes I have also events from the holidays and the events I created.(Invitations and others) but where is this option for the NC? In general>notifications I can't find anything about showing events from different calendars there. And how is this subscription made because I had the holidays as soon as I input my account on this device. Maybe I included the holiday calendar but I don't remember. How is that made? And where to find these options?

  • Calendar items not showing ONLY in list view on iPhone

    Weird: My Calendar items are not showing in the list view only, on iPhone.
    They show when I search, they show in month, they show in Day views--just NOT in list view.
    Ideas?

    I just had the same problem (calendar information--for eight different calendars--OK on laptop and on Mobile me; on the iPhone only 3 of my calendars were displaying in "List" view, but all eight were appearing in "Day" view); first time I've encountered this problem (and immediately after installing the 11-February-2010 iPhone software update, so I'm suspicious that this might have been the cause).
    Solution described in posting immediately above seems to have worked. I.e.,:
    1. shut OFF MobileMe syncing for calendars on the iPhone (from Settings menu);
    2. wait for calendar entries to be removed;
    3. shut off iPhone, and wait 2 minutes;
    4. restart iPhone;
    5. turn ON MobileMe syncing for calendars on the iPhone (again, from Settings menu).
    All eight calendars now appear in List view (and still appear in Day view).

  • Album art not showing on other Mac

    On my iMac all the album art was present in iTunes. After matching and uploading all the songs (afterwards I deleted them and redownloaded to get the 256kbps version) everything was still ok on my iMac. However on my MacBook Pro only several cd's display album art. I can't really seem to find out why some have and why some don't have the album art, it seems to be random. On my iPhone 4 most of the album art is showing, with just a few exceptions. For this I also have no explanation.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Kind regards,

    Make sure that in iTunes on the music tab for the ipod you have a checkmark in the box saying "Show Album Artwork on Ipod" or something along those lines. If it is not checked, do so and click apply. If it is checked then uncheck it and click apply. Then recheck it and click apply. This should get the artwork on the ipod. It may take awhile depending on how many tracks you have that have artwork.

  • Podcast album art not showing

    We just created a podcast feed and have not been able to get the Album art to show up.  I contacted iTunes Store Support and they were unable to help and directed me to this forum.
    As far as I can tell, our feed is correctly formed, but the album art still isn't displaying.  I've read that a number of users have had problems with this?  If someone from Apple is monitoring this forum, could you please help?  Our podcast feed is: http://www.pky.com/prs/prs-podcasts/prs-podcast-feed.aspx
    Thanks.

    Also have this problem.  Any help is appreciated.

  • Album Art not showing on iPod

    This has been an annoying problem the past several years of using iTunes, I was able to get some versions of the iTunes to work but I just uploaded the new 7.5 iTunes version...and when I try to add an album art to the songs on my iPod they don't show up except on iTunes.
    Is this iTunes version being screwy? Anyone else with the same problem, anyone with a solution?

    I'm having the same problem, iTunes could not find the album art for several imported albums so I scanned the cover, it shows on iTunes perfectly but not on my iPod

  • Album art not showing up under Artists

    I just bought my 120GB ipod last week. It was working fine, but now the album art that shows up next to each album under "Artists" is not showing up. The art is there if I select a song from one of those albums. This didn't happen before...is there something wrong?
    Also, I was listening to a playlist on shuffle, and when I clicked to go to the next song, it kept skipping to the next song like it was stuck in that mode. What's going on with that?

    It's likely that the artwork cache is corrupted.
    It's a simple fix by unchecking "display album artwork" in the music preferences section when your iPod is connected and click "apply". Then sync your iPod.
    Then check "display album artwork" in the music preferences section when your iPod is connected and click "apply". Then sync your iPod again.
    This should resync the album artwork to the iPod.

  • Album art not showing up on iPhone

    Dear Apple Community,
    Over the past few months, my iPhone does not show the album art when I play music. I have been using iPod/iPhone for over a decade now and I always like to have album art to keep my music organized. When I play a song, the album art will say "Missing". I have scrolled through my songs and none of my 2000+ songs have album art. I have been using my iPhone 4S for 3 years now and this problem has only happened over the past few months. I even updated to the newest software yesterday, but the problem persists. My music on my iTunes all have album art and it should sync to my phone, right?
    Thanks for any help!

    Hello, hello, hello, ... is there anybody out there?
    I can't figure it out. I have been trying for the last few hours now and I'm going nuts. The album art shows up in Windows Media Player and on my 4 year old Philips mp3 player.
    All of my music has been purchased. I don't know if that makes any difference or not, but I thought I'd mention it. I used iTunes to put the music on my iPhone 4. I use the iPod player on the phone.
    Again, thanks in advance for your time and help!

  • Album artwork not showing in album tab

    I don't know why but the album artowrk for one of my albums is not showing on my iPhone. Each individual song in the album has the artowrk, but it doesn't show up in the albums tab on the bottom of the music app. So in the albums tab where you can scroll through each album, the artowrk is missing. The album artowrk should be right next to the name of the album, but it just has that defualt musical note for stuff that doesn't have artowrk. I didn't download this album off of iTunes but I made sure the info for each song matched the info on iTunes. I get a little OCD when it comes to my music library, and I even deleted all the artwork for each song on the album, and redownloaded the artwork by right-clicking each song and clicking "Get Album Artowrk". Like I said, all the info matches the info on the iTunes store. Even when you view the album in cover flow it displays the album artowrk just fine, and when you play each individual song in the album you can see the artwork. Me being OCD about my music and all, it is just driving me crazy having that one album not have artwork while the rest of my albums do. I have never had this problem before and I just can't stand it.

    Just a guess: make sure you have the album's name exactly the same, including capital letters in every song.
    Also: you can select all songs from that album, right click, get info and change the album name for all songs at once, that should fix it.

  • Album Art - Not showing all in Album View or Cover Flow

    Recently I redid my Itunes Libary where with one artist with songs from several different albums, (and album artwork), renamed the album under Get Info to "Greatest Hits". Now, the specific album art for each song shows when the song is playing, but under Album View/Cover Flow only one Album Art shows for each artist. Assume this had something to do with my renaming multiple songs for the artist to Greatest Hits. Is there any way to get back the specific Album Art for each song under Album View/Cover Flow? Thanks.

    If you are only adding it to one song, that won't work. Itunes itself does this for artwork that it finds automatically, but if you want to add them yourself you have to add the artwork to every track. Find the track that you added the artwork to copy the artwork using command - C , then select all of the tracks at the same time in itunes, do a get info and paste the artwork into the artwork window of the tagging window.

  • Album art not showing consistently on iPhone *lockscreen*

    iTunes occasionally has trouble with album art, especially after syncs or updates (album art disappearing, or being reshuffled to the wrong mp3s, etc.).
    The current problem is different. Normally, with the iPhone's (iPod) music playing, the album art will replace the wallpaper on the lock screen. Lately, this feature has stopped being consistent. Some tracks will display album art on the lock screen, some won't. Those that won't, do have album art embedded (100% certain of this). In one instance, the album art displayed was a mishmash of two different albums' art (again, only on the lock screen). Editing the mp3s to reinsert the album art in iTunes, and then re-syncing, has not solved the problem.
    This is probably an issue with how iTunes is handling/editing those mp3s affected, or it may be an iPhone bug. There's nothing outstanding about the specific tracks in question - in every other way they appear to be normal (write enabled, and album art showing in track info).
    This problem only occurs @ the lock screen. In iPod view, and album view, display of the album art is normal for all tracks.
    I have noticed this also happening with other audio sources (ie, third party audio streaming apps, which normally show some kind of album art @the lock screen).
    Thanks for any feedback.

    I too have been having this issue & I've read the articles, advices & other discussions, but none of them fixes this issue. I reboot & still see the wrong album art on the lock screen. It is very annoying especially when you have iTunes with software that was purchased to "automajically" present the correct album artwork. For those of us who actually precise about how our libraries are organized this is a big deal. You spends hours days in keeping things organized, just for the sync to not resemble the labor...
    I have both the iPhone 4 & an iPod Touch 2nd gen. You'd think Apple would get stuff like this together before approving it for an update. No one can convince me different... Apple & Windows now both have the same MO! Get a new team of testers.

  • Album Art Not Showing Up on iPhone 4

    Hey guys, i need some help from the experts.
    My some album art is not showing up on my iPhone 4. My iTunes library in on an external HD so I'm not sure if that's the cause of it. How can I this? Of course, when I synched my iPhone 4 with my Mac the HD is connected so one would think the album artwork would transfer or be synched as well but no go. I would appreciate any help. thanks!
