Annoying album cover updates

Hello everyone. Issue with iTunes 7.0.2 here. When I add music, from anywhere, any source, even though in preferences, under the "General" tab, I have the "download missing album artwork" unchecked, for some inane reason while the songs are being added to iTunes, the program disreagrds my wishes and looks for the stuff. i could care less about albums or artwork.
Any help? thanks.

next time you sync try unselecting music and then sync it again with music selected

  • ITunes Missing Album Cover / Artwork Search feature (future update)

    Hi,
    I would like to request a future iTunes search function.  I know that iTunes allows you to save a Notifications report after you "Get Album Artwork" feature for missing covers or issues where it could not find Album covers.  However, can you add a function where you can list all the tracks/albums where iTunes could not find the album cover within iTunes, almost similar to the view, Show Duplicate Items function.  It would be great to list all the songs without covers within iTunes itself, so that one can work on fixing all the tracks with issues.
    Thanks
    p.s. still waiting on 2-way sync feature request, its been years now since i first requested.  For example, if you create an on the fly playlist on your iOS device that iTunes imports the playlist and merges any metadata updates, instead of creating duplicate playlists, etc.

    After the IOS7 updates, when we are viewing music videos on my phones I can no longer turn the phone horizontal to see a bigger viewing of the video. I can only see it widescreen in vertical mode which is much smaller. Now when you turn it sideways, it pops up album cover art and I hate that. Is there a way to fix that?

    We are just users like you and don't know why Apple does what it does. This is not a place to "vent," it is a place to ask technical questions. As of now there is no way to change or modify the way these folders appear in Windows Explorer. You can provide feedback to Apple about this issue at this link: http://www.apple.com/feedback

  • Ever since i plugged my iphone into the computer, all of my music has been messed up. The songs don't have the right album cover i guess they all just got mixed up somehow. i dont know but its annoying and im not sure how to fix it.

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then
    - 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.
    - 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.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IPhone 4S, iOS 8.2 update, iTunes album cover art missing

    Hello,
    I just updated my 64GB iPhone 4s to the new iOS 8.2, after reading online that it addressed issues with previous iOS 8 updates.
    Everything on the phone seems to work fine as far as I've found, but the album cover art for almost every album isn't coming over.
    I know this may sound insignificant, but it is the fastest way to look up music, especially when on the go.
    I have all my album artwork included on iTunes on my laptop.  Previous to this update, all album covers came over to iPhone.
    I just did the update to 8.2 last night (March 9, 2015), and synced my iPhone with my laptop to update my music catalog.
    First time it didn't bring the artwork over, so I re-synced and tried again.  Our of the 474 albums currently on the devise, album artwork came over on 58 albums.
    Has anyone else identified this issue?  If so, were you able to find a solution?
    Thank you.

    This has happened about 2 other times since updating to iOS 8.3.  I have an iPhone 6 Plus (128 GB).  I am able to retrieve the album artwork by removing the music from the device and then syncing with iTunes again.  This is a hassle, though, as I have 12,000+ songs that I sync to the device.  Album artwork hangs around for about 2 weeks and then mysteriously vanishes again.  So I have finally given in and will wait until the next software update and then hope for the best with another remove/sync cycle after the update has been applied.
    Bush league, Apple.  Bush league.

  • Unable to update album cover images and sometimes ID3-tags

    Hello everyone,
    I'm having problems with updating my track information on those tracks that I imported from my hard disk (mainly mp3s). I'm unable to add an album cover to most of them and sometimes it doesn't save the changes when I'm changing title and album information.
    The last things I've done were updating iTunes to version 7.3.1.3 and additionally I chose the option "convert ID3-Tags to v2.4".
    Before those two changes everything worked very well, but now I don't know what to do.
    Thanks for your help already!
    Andy

    Anyone got a clue?
    I figured out that after the ID3-Tag-conversion there are some files that are still alterable and some are not.
    With the latter ones I even cannot re-convert the ID3-Tags back to version 1.

  • Album Cover werden nach dem neuen Update nicht mehr gespeichert.

    Hi Leute,
    ich verwalte meine Musik auf dem iPhone manuell und füge auch manuell über "Informationen" meine eigenen Album Cover hinzu.

    Kennt jemand das Probelm und kann mir dabei helfen ?
    LG, Gini.
    Ps: Ich habe eben schon iTunes gelöscht und es neu installiert. Das Problem ist immer noch da.

  • How do I revert back to previous (before 11) itunes. Someone nicked my Album Cover flow, without asking

    how do I revert back to previous (before 11) itunes.
    Someone nicked my Album Cover flow, without asking. I have snow leopard. I was happy. Just before Christmas as if I havent got enough to do Thank You. I've given Apple loads of money this year--presents and all, the least they could do is tell me, they're going to take stuff off of My computer that I enjoy,/ find very useful/ and worked hard to update all my album covers and have a gallery of my own artwork for my mixes--it was beautiful. When I went to add some more, the facility had been taken away from me. Was so dissapointed. They send me emails all the time to buy the latest must have products. I even did a questionair to help them. They really care for their customers--right. So why couldnt they warn me about this update, its only polite.
    If I bought a warm coat some years ago, then the manufatures came round without my knowledge and cut off the left arm, and later told me, their reserch says that people dont use the left arm so much so they have to get rid of it. 1. I think that would be illegal. 2. its impolite not to ask if they could do it. 3. why not give me an options to keep it, seeing as i bought it. 4. its ludicrous.
    I trusted Apple-but then -they took my YouTube off my ipad. I cant update to newer software as I will lose some expensive programms (Im not made of money). I also have 2 oldish defunct but fully working laser printers (if they were compatible with new software).
    Im not a techky-I just use the stuff, I do art and music and Cover Flow was equipement I used.
    I want to get rid of itunes 11, anyhelp out there

  • No album cover

    I have the latest "iOS 5." and software iTunes version 10.6.1.7 and most of my "Album covers"  do show up but the occasional one doesn't. I delete the song from my iPad 2 and even deleted from iTunes database and went as far as trying a different "Album cover" and when re-entering it into "iTunes" and transfering it to my iPad 2 but once again no album cover. I rebooting my iPad 2 and sometimes that would work and sometimes it doesn't work. When I right click and selected "Get info" on my ("name" iPad) the album cover is there. I deleted it and then click on "Add" and re-enter the cover and you can see that "iTunes" on the top showing the graph bar that it is indeed being updated but yet on my iPad 2 it doesn't show just the rest of the info but no cover. I have over 1000 songs and most of them have their covers but some songs just won't accept the covers. What am I doing wrong? It doesn't make sense at all. I am not doing anything differently. Has anyone face this same problem as I am?
    Thank-you

  • Zen Vision: M problem with Album Cov

    I've read a lot of intructions on these boards about dragging the album cover into the generic icon (after I select "View" and "Albums" in the Media Explorer. Thing is, when I try to drag a picture nothing happens. Next thing I try is to manually copy and paste the album cover into the same generic grey icon and it says that it won't allow it to be viewed in my device and asks me if I just want to drop it in the folder (which does no good). Anyone else solve this problem in the past? Do I have to use a certain type of image file type? I'm using jpgs.
    Please help me.
    ?Also, I am using Windows Vista 32-bit Premium Home Edition. Thanks in advance. I really want my album covers to work, it will be so cool.

    I found the easiest way is to do it in Creative Media Source 5, highlight all the tracks in the album you want to apply art to, right click, go to "edit properties", click on the last entry on the bottom, "change album art" and assign the JPG of your choice, then update tags and the album art will show on your player, it has worked 00% for me so far.

  • IPhone 4S iOS 5.0.1 Album cover art STILL missing

    The album cover art IS in my iTunes 100% but only a few of the album covers appear in my new iPhone 4S updated to 5.0.1 and re-booted several times.
    HELP please as I USED TO use album cover art ti help select songs to enjoy.

    Sounds like memory leak - basically the code for an app or program is not getting the message that it needs to terminate its operation, so it continues to run in the background (even if you remove it from the multi-tasking tray when you double click the home button).  This is probably preventing your iphone from entering its "idle state" or "sleep mode".  This would result in your standby and usage time being almost identifical.

  • After downloading the latest ujpdate from itunes it is impossible to see album songs individually, the screen is black and all that shows is the album cover.

    Trying to find music to download and buy but the screen is black with no facilities to view the records on the album.
    When I click on the album it plays and offers a single purchase on that song playing, but no other option to
    buy the whole album.  It also displays 4 pictures of the same album cover.
    Have tried deleting and downloading again and pressed repair, but the same thing happens.
    What do I do now please?

    Hello hsielglad,
    Thank you for your question. iTunes 11.1 is required to update to and sync with iOS 7.  If you are still running iTunes 10.6.3, I recommend trying to obtain the update by going to the iTunes menu and selecting Check for Updates.
