Album Artwork Doesn't Synch (classic 160GB)

Although in my iTunes album artwork is visible and coverflow preview works perfect when I copy them in my ipod the album artwork isn't visible, not always but sometimes in the same album, one song has its artwork but the next one doesn't. I mean that this behaviour doesn't have a pattern.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

iTunes will display artwork for the album provided at least one track has artwork. When you're playing on iPod it appears to only look at track 1 for cover flow/album view purposes and will display embedded art, if it exists, for the currently playing track, otherwise it will display the blank cover.
To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php for Macs. If you're using Google or other FWSE to locate suitable images they should be jpg's, square, 200x200 pixels or above and ideally borderless to give the best results in the various menus.

  • Album artwork doesn't synch when converting higher bitrates

    Hi!
    This worked before so not sure if it is the new version of iTunes (10.6) or the iOS (5.1).  When I have the convert higher bitrate to 128 kbps checked, it imports the song but if the bitrate is greater than 128 kbps, the artwork doesn't get imported.
    I've tested it with it checked and without and it works when you don't do the conversion.
    Looks like a bug to me...anyone else run into this issue?

    Hi,
    Got the same issues when using the conversion to 128kbps.
    Everything is fine when the bitrate is already 128 or without using the conversion.
    NB : I don't have the issue with my old iPod nano when using this option, so maybe it's an iOS issue.

  • The album artwork on my iPod Classic is all mixed up. Wrong artwork on each song..

    Why does the album artwork on my iPod Classic get all mixed up wheres it is correct in the library. Please help

    Hello Derick,
    This usually happens as the result of a corrupt iPod artwork cache.  The only way to correct this is to restore your iPod to factory settings via iTunes.  Doing so will rebuild your iPod's artwork cache.  Not exactly sure as to how or why the corruption happened to begin with.

  • Album artwork doesn't sync

    Hi,
    A few weeks back I made a post about my Recently Added playlist not syncing in order to my iPhone and was assisted in solving the issue by ultimately removing the live sync selection. However, as of today, I have noticed that album artwork for all songs were I have manually added the album artwork does not sync with my iPhone. It is all there in the original playlist in iTunes and while all the songs sync perfectly in order with all the details I added manually, the album artwork doesn't.
    Any ideas on how I can solve this WITHOUT manually pasting it to the playlist in the iPhone? Thx!

    Taking off all the music and then putting it back on took care of the album art, but I'm still getting all kinds of funky behavior -- iTunes can't find the apps, then it can't find the iPod altogether, and it's adding duplicate songs somewhere.  It said it was going to load 3,232 songs, but I ended up with more than 3,400.  Weird.

  • Album Artwork doesn't show up in vertical mode but does in Coverflow

    I have an iPod Touch 4g and im running the newest version of iOS, 4.3.3, and the newest version of iTunes.  Also running OS X Lion 10.7.  The album artwork doesn't show up in vertical mode but does in Coverflow.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Did you already try to activate the artwork visualization in iPod?

  • Album artwork doesn't appear in itunes

    I am really stuck. The album artwork doesn't appear when I am downloading my cds onto Itunes. I am on broadband so the album details download but no artwork.
    I have read all the articles and I am using itunes 4.9, I have the preferences 'download album artwork' checked and still it doesn't appear in the bottom left hand box when I am copying my cd's.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi I had this problem, I got round it by ripping in Windows Media Player 10 and letting it download the Album artwork.
    Also when viewing the actual folder that stores your music (eg my music) go into Tolls menu, then select options then select the view tab and uncheck the option 'Hide Operating System files' This lets you view the Album Art image files
    Then add the MP3 files to your library in your itunes. Once in Itunes Select all tunes in an album, right click selct get info ,then double click Artwork box and load the Album art you want.
    Its a pain, but hey you only need to do it once, oh and do not uncheck the Show Album Art option in Itunes, as this may give you an Unkonown Error 50, and then it wont let you rediplay the Artwork, you have to load it all agian.

  • Album artwork doesn't show up on ipod

    My album artwork doesn't show up for songs that i currently just burned off a cd. it shows up on itunes but not on my ipod

    Hey there,
    Make sure that you have "Include Album Artwork" checked under the Music tab screen that you can access when you plug your iPod in. See if that helps.

  • Artwork missing in iPod Classic 160GB

    I don't remember doing anything different from the ordinary but somehow my iPod is not showing artwork anymore. I tried disabling the artwork then sync then enabling it again and sync again. No joy.
    iPod Classic running 1.1.1
    iTunes 7.6.1.9
    Windows XP Pro
    Anyone has any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance...

    Yeah, I have the same problem. It was fine before and my artwork is all on iTunes. Only some random artwork showed up. Even the stuff I bought from the iTunes store wasn't all there.
    I tried to fix it by enabling and disabling the album artwork a bunch of times. It didn't work.
    I also went through the songs/albums that were missing their artwork and copying the artwork, deleting it from the songs/albums, and then pasting it back into the left column's artwork area.
    It worked for only some. Please help because this REALLY bugs me now.

  • Get Album Artwork doesn't load- the bar stays at zero.

    When I secondary click, and select 'get album artwork', the bar at the top says 'proccessing album artwork' but the progress bar stays at zero. I've left it for almost ten minutes and it doesn't move at all. I restarted my computer and it doesn't help. I am connected to the internet, and the album exists in iTunes. Also, to be clear, I know that I can copy and paste or drag from the internet, but its much easier to just use the 'get album artwork' function. Help, please?

    So if the album isn't available in the iTunes store, it's not recognized? That's ridiculous. That's like saying if I don't buy through iTunes, I shouldn't use iTunes to sync my music to my iPod. That sounds like Apple again following only wherever the dollar goes.
    Windows Media Player uses All Music Guide, which stores everything whether you can buy it through anybody or not. Apple makes great devices, but they're continually pushing me away from them because they put the almighty dollar first and me second. Hopefully Google will integrate their online music service and I won't have to worry about whether an album I can buy just about anywhere won't be recognized by Apple's proprietary dollar-munching service.

  • Album Artwork doesn't show in my iPod

    Hi everyone!
    I've seen a lot of people have problems with photos... but what about Album Artwork??!!
    I've got a lot of album artwork associated to my songs in iPod photo but only a few of them are shown and I don't know why... I've tried everything except formatting (and this solution is quite annoyin you know). Can anyone help me?
    And... one thing more: does anybody know how to erase album artwork images of the songs in iPod or iTunes? if I can't solve the problem... I just wil erase every album artwork and re-attach the album artwork again, but this solution it's soo annoying (yes, again)...
    Please, help me... thanks!

    First, create a new folder on your pc - I created one in my MY MUSIC folder and named it Album Covers. Nest, open your iTunes Library and reduce its size on the screen. Then open up Internet Explorer and go to Amazon.com. Reduce the size of that screen so that you can view both your iTunes Library and the Amazon website.
    Once in Amazon, go to the music tab and then type in the name of the cd's in your iTunes library. When the cd cover comes up in Amazon, doubleclick it to view it in its own window, then right click the image and save it as the name of the cd in the album covers folder that you created. Once you have saved all of the album covers, close the internet explorer window and open the Album cover folder. Again, minimize its size so that you can see both your iTunes Library and the Album Covers folder.
    Next, highlight all the songs in your iTunes library that correspond to a particular cd and then click and drag the album cover from the Album Covers folder to the album art box on the lower left corner of your iTunes Source window. The album art should appear in that box and it will appear on your iPod as well. Make sure to highlight all of the songs from each respective cd so that you don't have to click and drag the album cover for every song -- this will speed up the process tremendously.
    Good luck!

  • Album Artwork doesn't display

    Album Artwork shows in the 'get info' artwork tab, but does not show on list or grid modes. Does appear in coverflow mode. Worked fine until I upgraded 'audio' driver - rolled-back driver and installed latest Quicktime, but nothing displays. Artwork is there, but program that displays it, does not.
    Any ideas??
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    gmth

    Artwork previously displayed all the time. Now, only occassionally. All artwork shows in the GET INFO tab and it goes to iPhone, just will not display in iTunes. (PC WIndows 7) Maybe an associtation error for video files? What program is supposed to be used for the artwork tag files? All worked fine until I upgraded to a new video card and then upgraded audio driver.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • HT1386 Album artwork doesn't transfer since upgrade iOS?

    Anyone can you help? I "upgraded" to iOS 6.01, now my album artwork will not transfer with my music to my iPod touch.

    When you download artwork from the iTunes store, it is stored in the iTunes folder in the Album Artwork folder, not in the song file.
    If you paste in artwork from another source, it is stored in the song file. So there are two systems which can be confusing
    So if you are transfering your iTunes library to another computer, you need to take the whole iTunes folder as well as the iTunes Music folder. This ensures you have the library databses and artwork folder.

  • Album artwork doesn't show up on Get Info window?

    I downloaded iTunes 7. Now, when I open the Get Info window and go to the artwork tab, the artwork doesn't show up, even though I can see it in the regular iTunes window! Help? Anyone?

    iTunes 7 does some stupid things with the artwork. The artwork tab in Get Info is the artwork that is contained inside the music file. iTunes 7 also downloads artwork for songs but then it doesn't store it inside the song file -- it just puts in in a folder on the computer.

  • Error 609, "Get Album artwork" - doesn't happen

    I haven't had problems with getting album artwork until now. I always make sure the artist and album are properly labeled and nothing else in iTunes is running. I now get error 609, where artwork won't download.

    This solved itself when I upgraded to 10.5.8 and iTunes 9.0.2
