Album art on song list view?

So I was just watching a TV spot for the iPhone and I noticed that on the demo when the iPod button is pressed, the song list shows up. On the Song list, I (just now) noticed that apparently the album art is showing up on the left of the song title. Additionally, the video tutorial here on Apple's site shows the same thing.
My question is this: When in iPod mode, my iPhone will display album art when I select a song, or when I rotate the iPhone to landscape view but not while I'm viewing the song list. Is there a way to get album art for a song to display in the list and if so, how?

When you view Albums in a list.
On the iPod vertical view, there is a MORE button on the bottom right. You hit that, hit Albums, and the songs list out one by one with little covers on the left.

ITunes 11: Album art in song view

I WANT:
1) Album art in song view with Date Added selected
OR
2) Add DATE ADDED to Album View (why isn't it?)
3) If I can't have these anymore, cuz we all know Apple giveth and Apple taketh away on a regular basis, then Album View should automatically show the current song playing (why doesn't it?)
Also, I had to restart three times before Command L finally worked. I had to deselect and reselct Sync iPhone over WiFi to get that to work.
Sloppy and unintelligent update.

If you are in Album view and click Song view, you can view all the information you wish. It is an extra click but innovation seems to be that way these days.

How do i get itunes 11 to display my album art while in list mode like it did in the previous version?

How do i get itunes 11 to display my album art while in list mode like it did in the previous version?

I think the Sidebar preview image is gone. But found that when I'm playing music either from the entire library or a playlist you can click the tiny thumbnail at the top to open a Artwork based player that is scalable. Reduce (minimize) the main Itunes window and the player is actually Nice. Hope that helps.

Itunes 10- Song List View is just a black screen!!

I recently updated to itunes 10, initially it was working fine. Today, my computer bugged out while shutting down and I had to hold the power button on it. When it rebooted I scanned for viruses, errors, adware, etc... I have re-downloaded itunes and selected the 'Repair' option, but it did not help. I have made sure I am up-to-date on both itunes and quicktime updates. I have not seen any similar problems such as this while searching the internet, so I am posting here. If I hit the play button it will still play the songs from whatever playlist I am currently in, and the grid view works, but when I want to view the song list (which is the way i always use my itunes) it just turns the window within itunes, the window that has the song list, completely black. This happens for all of my playlists, recently added, full music collection, any playlist that can be viewed using the song list view. Is there anyone who has also experienced this? What can I do? It took me over 10 hours to create this playlist with the large amount of music I have and I would not be happy to have to sit there an go brain dead again creating it.... please help!

Tylerdowner, as a moderator, one would think that, prior to adjusting comments/solutions, especially when not having a Mac, you would do more research (bet you know someone with a Mac, to duplicate problem), or pass responding on to a moderator who does have a Mac (I am amazed that you are even a moderator on Mac problems/situations, if you only have access to a PC). Had the solutions above worked, I would not have needed to figure out another solution (we all know the newest release of anything is the most secure). Finally I am open to any fixes (tested) that you can provide, that improve upon mine. As a moderator, maybe you have pull with the Foxtab and/or Adobe people to get them to work out compatibility, and lastly, maybe add a warning at the Foxtab add-ons page, after verifying the problem yourself, with an associate's/friend's Mac.

How do i turn off the feature that browses album art work in landscape view?

How do I turn off the feature that browses album art work in landscape view? My videos will not play full screen since I updated my phone to iOS 7.1.

I don't believe that feature can be turned off.
I'm not experiencing any problem with full-screen video play on IOS 7.1 on an iPhone 5.

Album Art Not In Song List View

I have an iPhone 3GS running iOS 4.2.1. When I bring up the iPod application and select "Albums" I see the list of all of the albums with the covers. I also have album covers in cover flow. Howerver, when I click on the album to display the songs there is no album cover in the upper left hand of the screen, just a big empty space. This is the only place that I don't have album covers. I'm using the latest version of iTunes (10.1.1).
Anyone know how to fix this?
I deleted the photo cache and resynched my iPhone to see if that would fix the order of my photos, which it did not. That might have something to do with it.
Thanks,
Mike

OK, I got this fixed. In iTunes I removed the music from my iPhone and the reinstalled the music on my iPhone. All is well now.

Can't see album art in Songs view in iTunes 11, column browser issues

The column browser is still the most effective way for me to navigate my music, but in iTunes 11 it's only available in Songs view. This kinda makes sense, the column browser would be somewhat redundant in the other views, but Songs view is now missing the album art on the left side, which makes it a lot harder to view my music. This is what it looked like in iTunes 10:
In iTunes 11 it looks like this:
The album art was't just pretty, it had a great function of visually separating each of my albums in the list view. Now they all mush together. Sure, I can see the art now in the Artists or Genre view, but not with the column browser. I want to be able to sort by Genre, Artist and Albums - all three. Not one or the other. The column browser is the only way to do this and it just got uglier.
On top of all this, now if I navigate to a certain place in the column browser and then click on anything else in iTunes, like the Artists view, Movies, Podcasts, etc and then jump back to the column browser, the whole column browser is reset and I've lost my place. This never used to happen in iTunes 10.
It's like Apple is trying to marginalize the column browser till no-one wants to use it anymore.

I found this in another discussion about iTunes 11:
"To view in list/song view with art work on the side
Go to prefernces >general and uncheck use large text. Go to Artist view > view > options > check group compulations. then clik on all artists and all you music will appear in list view with the art work on the left This is great for me as I recognize my music by art work not title, artist, ect.. Wish I could do additional sorts/see info in this view such as date added, BPM, last played ect."
can you try it and post a screen shot?

Is there a way to see album art in Song View?

I am constantly trying to clean up new tracks as I bring them in. Is there a way to view the Art for albums/tracks in Song View? Also, is there a way to "group" tracks by album in this view like iTunes 10 did? Without visual grouping it makes reading tracks, to verify the album is complete, a real pain.

No, there is no way to quickly preview artwork of selected songs. You have to commit with "Get Info". I agree, the lack of a preview window makes managing the library far more tedious. You can't trust the artwork in "Album" view because iTunes seems to pull that from the cloud, artwork you see may not embedded in the song.
This was the main reason I switched back to iTunes 10.7. The other reason was the inability to open multiple windows. I was trying to create a playlist of the songs on my daughters's iPod touch, and ended up having to create a screenshot of the iPod. Convoluted workarounds for tasks that used to be done in one click is called "progress".

How do I get albums to display as list view?

For the last several "Upgrades" I cannot get iTunes to display my albums in a "list View" only as pictures of the cover art. I have gone into "Edit>Preferences>General" and checked "Show list views all media" with no result. It seems they left me in the dust by making it "Better!" Is there any way to make it display my albums as a list?

Hi,
Go to "songs" view and i think you will find what you are looking for. This view looks a lot like the view i used in the previous version .
If you select view -> view options (command-j) you will see all the familiar choices. BTW - some options may be hidden (collapsed) so you may have to expand them by clicking on the arrow next to the category heading. Hope this helps.
I've been looking for this answer since the new version came out. This is the article i found it in.

ITunes Album Art and song sorting difficulties

Hello.
I would like to solve something I've been having trouble with for a while now.
I am one of those people who like to only see the album art of a playlist I created. So, I don't like it when there are a 1000 different album arts, a different one for every single song, when I tild my iPod touch 4th generation to landscape mode. I have created 3 playlists in total, so only want to see 3 different album arts.
The only way I've managed to do this so far, was clicking on a song and selecting the show info button, and then click on: part of a compilation, and fill in all the different info and specifications for the song and the playlist it's in.
For example, in my playlist Michael Jackson:
But everytime I add a new song to my iTunes library, and put the song in the Michael Jackson playlist, it shows different album and album-artist info. (because the songs come from my Windows 7 music library and not every song comes out of the same MJ album. Some come out of the album Thriller, some come out of other albums )
So that means, if I don't want a new album art picture everytime I put a new song in the Michael Jackson playlist, I manually have to fill in all the specifications again: album-artist = Michael Jackson. Album = King of Pop. Sort album = King of pop, or a new album art will appear in landscape mode with only one song underneath it.
So finally, my question: is there any way iTunes can do this automatically, when I add a new song to one of my playlists?
My iTunes is in Dutch, hope that doesn't cause difficulty.

I'm new here and didn't realize that correction would bump this discussion.
It does, and that's fine as long as you're not too impatient. (Though I've probably missed what you've corrected.)
Isn't it a bit strange that iTunes doesn't have some sort of button: 'put all the songs in this playlist/album under one artwork?'
Or is that just me?
If it's not just you, you're certainly in a minority. Use the Songs and List views and you can pretty much ignore artwork in iTunes, but I think most people associate songs with the albums they come from and the correct art helps when browsing. I'm the other way, everything has to have the correct art (which must be exactly square), Title Case Spelling, long file and folder names in Windows Explorer, etc. See Grouping tracks into albums for more...
Something else I just noticed. In iTunes on my PC it's fine, the songs on my iPod are in the same order as they are showed in iTunes, but they have a completely wrong number in front of them on my iPod, like this:
1. Bad
8. Beat It
5. Ben
12. Billy Jean
2. Black or White
2.Billie Jean
Do you also happen to know how to solve this?
Those are probably the original track numbers showing through, but I'd need to see more details to be certain. There is a section on track ordering in the article above.

Manual update - how do I add album art to songs that are already in ipod?

I recently changed to manual update as the auto update started to take a ridiculously long time to even recognize my 60gb.
I wanted to add album art to an album that was already in my ipod. I updated the songs in itunes, and then dragged them to the ipod when it was listed in itunes.
Itunes said "updating songs" - and I ended up with two copies of each song.
I deleted the duplicates from the ipod, but surely there must be an easier way.
So how does one properly update information on existing songs with manual update?
60gb video latest itunes

The easiest way to do this kind of thing probably would be to either make the alterations (album artwork, lyrics, etc.) on your iPod's songs themselves, not the iTunes library songs. (Click on the little arrow to the left of your iPod's name in the Source List of iTunes, so show/hide. Click on the "Music" library under your iPod to see it's songs displayed in iTunes.)
When you've gotten in the "Music" library, under your iPod's name in iTunes, you can select the songs here that you want to change, and click on "Get Info".
Or, you could do this:
1 - Make the changes to the iTunes Library songs.
2 - Go to your iPod's Music area in iTunes.
3 - Delete the current songs off your iPod that will be replaced with the "modified" version of the track (that has additional or altered info on it.)
4 - Now, go back to the iTunes Library. Select those new changed songs, and drag them to your iPod.

Album art shown in grid view

In the new grid view which shows the album art for artists, is there a way to set the image shown for the artist, like you press space to choose the picture shown in iPhoto?
It's annoying at the moment becasue I use it in artist mode but some artists with more than one album show the image for a compilation that they are on rather than one of their albums. Eg, under Coldplay, the artwork shown is a Now album, rather than say Viva la vida. Can I change the album shown as the main image?
Thanks

Ok, I've been playing around with iTunes 8 and have found the answer myself. If when in Grid view with more than the one album for the artist, show the album art required and right click and choose Set Default Album Artwork and it will change it to this. Alternatively choose Get Info whilst on the grid view and it will allow you to paste an artwork in here which it will use as a default.
Hope this helps anyone else wanting to do a similar thing!

Stuck on album art when song is playing

when music is playing I don't see title or time or anything, just a box with the album art in it which is most of the time blank, it happened out of no where kinda confused about it

Hey!
The original postee was asking why no artwork was displayed after copying their CD's to iTunes.This will not happen until the A/W is loaded into iTunes either manually by means of scanning the CD insert or, as I suggested,using a free app.that will automatically search the 'net for you.Whether your way works or not is by the by.iTunes makes it as easy as pie to do,within the iPod's dedicated OS,so why do it any other way?
Cheers,
John

Is there a way to export playlists in the order they are in album list view rather than song list view?

I'd like to have my playlists sorted by Album by Artist/Year when exporting, but I can't figure out how to do it.

It should be:
Sort the playlist as Album by Artist\Year
Right-click on playlist name and click Copy to Play Order
Export playlist.

Album Art Sharing - Wish List

I'm moving from a Windows based media manger (Media Player by J. River) to an iMac. iTunes is the next to the last application that I need to get working so that I can retire the PC. Based on my testing so far and what I've read on these boards it's not possible to see album artwork on Macs on my home network via the shared library. So... Does Apple have a "wish list" were we can make feature requests? It just seems silly that we can't do this. If I'm wrong and there is a supported way to do it, please let me know. Thanks all.

If you do, indeed, have Home Sharing properly enable (look for the little House symbol next to the shared library) then try this:
View > as Coverflow. Cover view pops up with the arrow button at the bottom left of the screen.
I read this on another forum but cannot test it as I do not currently have both of my computers booted up. I do seem to recall seeing the artwork though when I used it before.
