Try 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 youd iPod is connected and click "apply". Then sync your ipod again.
This should resync the album artwork to the iPod.
If this does not work, you might need to restore the iPod and reload the songs in order to correct this error.

Album art not displaying correctly

Help! I hate that my album art is displaying incorrectly. I have podcast covers on album and music albums on podcasts. What is really strange is if I have a rental movie on some of my songs display stills from that film!?
What can I do to rectify this?

Tried this and it does not work. I don't think there should be a problem, but there are two albums that have the same name from different artists. The artwork for the other artist with the same album title is displaying.
I am also running synergy 3.0 and it displays the correct album art. When I try to import that correct art into itunes, it does not replace the wrong artwork.

Album art not syncing

This was briefly mentioned in a couple of threads, but I thought it should have a thread of its own.
I got my pre-order Touch yesterday (week 38), and everything for the most part looks great. I've had no internet problems, screen problems, syncing problems, etc.
When I first synced my iPod, it took a while, which I expected. After syncing, I immediately began listening to music and strolling through cover flow. Everything looked fine. When I synced it again, removing some albums that I just never listen to, I noticed that some album art isn't present. Also, when I synced it this time, it said that there was some diagnostic information from my iPod being sent to Apple.
Now, there is no album art for albums beginning with T through those starting with #'s. In cover flow, you can see the album art only when it's not being viewed directly. If you go directly to it on cover flow, you just see the blank box. In list mode, it just shows the typical blank box for album art for these albums. A change had to take place, because the first album I listened to had album art. Now, it doesn't.
Are there any others having this problem?

I am having this issue and too want to know how to fix it. :[

Album art not matching correctly between iTunes and iPhone.

So as much as this might not seem as an issue for some, I notice that my album artwork in iTunes does not always match up with the album art on my phone. If I think that some artwork for a song or album is unappealing or not matching, I will change it to my own artwork. Normally, this has never been an issue for me until recently. What happens is I do the normal album art changing procedure (go to get info, add/delete album art) and it works fine. The odd thing is that when I go to select an album on my phone, the album art is the same as what it was in the iTunes Store and not what I added, but the individual songs have the album art that I added myself.
I've managed to fix this issue on some albums by converting them mp3 format, but that only works for some and I don't know why. I would prefer the song art and album art be the same, just because I'm really nitpicky about things matching. Am I missing a step or doing something wrong? Does anyone else happen to have this issue, or any clue what the problem might be? Help would be much appreciated, thanks!

What you are trying to do is clear but iTunes Match / IOS 6 does not work that way.
You can sync playlists from computer to iDevice using the options under the music tab for your iDevice on the computer. This will provide a local copy on the iDevice of each Song included in each Playlist selected for sync.
With iTunes Match / IOS 6, as Songs are played from the iCloud (ie not those already downloaded in playlists) IOS 6 does in fact 'download' the Song to a local cache. In theory this cache should be managed by IOS 6 such that it does not overload your iDevice memory - Apple have not chosen to share exactly how this operates.
Given your notes above would suggest starting from a refresh restore on the iPhone 5 with all synchronisation performed afresh and iTunes Match switched on.

Album art not syncing on iPod Video

Hi.
I'm new to iPods. Don't hate me.
I purchased a bunch of songs at work on my G5. That's not my "home" Mac. I copied them to my iPod in drive mode, brought them back to the "home" Mac. Added them to iTunes by drag and drop. Synced. They show up in iTunes and on my iPod, but the album art is not there. What happened?
Again, I purchased them on a different computer and loaded to my "home" Mac.
Is it at all possible for the art to show up?
Thanks!

The album art is stored in the iPod's database. This should work...

If not, try copying songs from the mac to the mac...

Album Art not syncing properly since updating Touch and iTunes (Mac and Win

Both my partner and I are both experiencing problems with cover art on our Touches.
He uses Vista and I use a Mac - before we updated everything was fine. iTunes displays the right album art but when you run through coverflow on the touches you end up with random album art. Currently I have a Janet Jackson album cover on an album belonging to A-ha.
The same problems occurs with my partners touch.
Is this a bug in the Touch update or iTunes update? Can it be fixed - I am not sure how though as iTunes appears to be displaying the right information!

I have not seen this behavior, but you might want to try a restore on the Touch to see if that helps.
I have to wonder about something possibly being wrong on your library - possibly outdated or bad ID3 tags.
YOu could try to fix this by: (I saw this fixed issues for others elsewhere, but I have not done it)
Open iTunes.
Select all of your music in your library.
Goto the Advanced menu and select "Convert ID3 tags"
Select ID3 tag version and select 2.4 from the drop-down menu, click OK.
It will take a while, depending on how much music you have.
Restore the iPod(s) and sync again.
Does that fix it?

Album art not syncing on 3G

Whenever I sync my iPhone with iTunes, it only syncs some of my album artwork, and then about half of it appears with the standard blank, even though it has artwork assigned to it on iTunes.
Any ideas what the issue could be?

Just discovered a way to not fix this problem, but stop it from happening again.
I suspect our lost artwork was from copy/pasting the artwork into itunes. somehow the syncing with the iphone, has made itunes 'forget' where it saved the temporary file of the copy/pasted artwork.
So...
i created a folder in itunes (user > music >itunes > album artwork) call 'manual'. i physically saved the JPEGS in there for all the artwork i wanted to add manually.
i then went back to itunes, selected the albums with the missing art, did 'get info' (apple I) on one of the songs in each album, and then instead of copy/pasting the art into Artwork tab, i did 'Add' then selected the JPEG file from my 'manual' folder.
next sync (and all subsequent syncs so far), the problem has not re-appeared.
HOWEVER! oddly it still affects one CD. no idea why. the artwork is in Itunes, but just doesn't show on the iphone. no idea why.
BOTTOM LINE Apple need to fix this bug. It's really irritating.
And one quick way around this is to stop users having to manually add album art all the time. All my songs are on itunes to buy, so there is no reason why iTunes couldnt supply the artwork. Apple need to link the database they use to recognise CDs (when you 'rip' them to iTunes) with their own itunes store database, so if the track data or album art is missing, you have the option to 'find this album'. this would be a fantastic feature.

Pre - photo albums do not sync correctly!

Hi all,
Total newbie - and also a newbie to Palm. Having moved from iphone to pre, and remaining a mac user, i'm becoming a little stressed at how the simple things just dont seem to be working!!!!
I've downgraded my itunes so i can sync photos to my pre from iphoto. The problem i have is the order in which photos appear in the albums syncd to the phone.
iphoto orders photos within an album by file name - which of course means that the photos within an album are also chronologically in order too. However, when these albums are syncd to my pre, all photos within each album are in reverse order!!!!!
How can i fix this????????
Post relates to: None

Sorry, but I'm puzzled by "I can't find the folders that have the original files by using the finder." If they are missing from the Finder then iPhoto won't find them and neither will the Apple TV.
If I'm understanding you correctly, you have much more serious problems than inability to see pictures, such as disk directory damage or a failing hard drive. I hope I'm wrong.
Have you looked in Pictures/iPhoto Library/Data/2008? Don't change anything in there, but you should find your most recent pix and can open them with Preview. If you see any with a name like "party" as opposed to "party.jpg" that is what I mean by a filename problem. Depending on where you imported them from, this can happen.
WARNING: Do not change anything in those folders; it will ruin your iPhoto database. For details on that, best to check in with the folks in the iPhoto forum.

Album artwork not syncing

Ever since the new iTunes and Yosemite I find most of my album art is missing on my iPhone 5S. It's all in iTunes and looks just fine. It's mostly missing on my iPhone. I've tried removing my music library from the iPhone and then re-syncing it from scratch. Still hasn't worked. I thought maybe some one here might have an answer.
Yosemite 10.10.1 (14B25)
iTunes 12.0.1.26
iOS 8.1.2
Thanks!
Steve

These instructions will have to be modified if you've moved the iTunes folder from its usual location.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Music/iTunes/Album Artwork/Cache
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with a subfolder named "Cache" selected. Quit iTunes if it's running. Move the selected folder to the Trash. Relaunch the application and re-download all album artwork.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
I don't sync music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them. Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view. I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again.
These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes. My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues.
Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

I have problem, after upagrading my ipad to ios5 i cannot sync my music library correctly it is diiffrence between song in itune and in music i ipad after sync. I chose the option to sync entire librery but few albums did not sync. I got error about sync

I tried sync and unsync nothing my itunes library has 3367 songs and when i connect ipad it shows after selecting entire music only 3342 songs. Pleaese help. Thank you.

You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

Podcast Get Info Album Art Not Saved for Future Episodes

I have iTunes 8. I noticed most of my podcasts have album art showing in grid view. When I upgraded to 2.1 on my iPhone and synced my iPhone I noticed no album art on the podcast main page on the iPhone. I decided to restore the phone to a new phone not backup and the new sync of my podcasts showed album art. However inside each podcast the album art wasn't showing on each episode.
Looking at iTunes for those affected episodes doing a Get Info showed not album art. I guess the podcast doesn't have album art. I right click on the podcast, not an episode, and select get info. I click on the album art box and check the box and inside the album art box double click which brings up a navigation display. I had already taken a screen shot of the album art in the iTunes music store for each podcast. I import the graphic to the album art box and save. All the current episodes have their artwork updated. Now I sync to the iPhone and all is well.
If I download a new episode for this podcast and do a Get Info on this episode there is no artwork. Looking at the Get Info for the podcast the artwork was never saved. However if you change a text field in Get Info and then download a new podcast episode that text field in the get info of the episode is updated. Why doesn't the album art not get saved and update each episode that is downloaded with missing album art?
Am I missing something?
Thanks
Kelvin

Yeah, on my iPhone some of the album art for my podcasts was actaully changed to an arbitrary incorrect image. For example, instead of the Cranky Geeks logo, I get to look at New Kids on the Block (don't ask). I'm going to try unsubscribing from the podcast, deleting past episodes from my computer, sync the phone so it wipes out those old episodes and incorrect art, and then resubscribing and resyncing the phone. Hopefully that will transfer the correct art back up to the phone.

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.

IPhoto events not syncing correctly with iPhone

Hello,
Basically, my iPhoto events are not syncing correctly with my iPhone. Some events will sync, whereas others won't, though no error messages are ever displayed.
I have all my photos, 961 photos in 34 events, organised in iPhoto, however iTunes doesn't seem to recognise all of these events, only reporting 881 photos. I've got iTunes set up to "Sync photos from iPhoto - All events" and this works for most events, but not all.
On my iPhone, I can tell which events are missing, but no matter how many times I restart my Mac or sync my iPhone, it refuses to sync the few missing albums. There is over 4Gb of available space left on the iPhone, so this shouldn't be an issue.
Many thanks in advance.
Peter.

Any ideas, please? I hope I explained my issue clearly enough.
Thank you,
Peter.
