Annoying bug! Covers repeating in cover flow under Simpllifed Chinese

We(who use Simpllified Chinese UI) all find out there is a BUG when we go to coverflow.The cover of those albums keep repeating, which means there are alot of same covers for one album and the contants are all the same. This never happened before 3.1 and to anyother language enviroment. Once I switch to English, this bug disappears.
So please notice this problem! And 3.1.2 didn't solve this bug.

I also have this problem!

Finder Bug Renaming files with cover flow

If I try to rename a file using finder with cover flow using left and right arrows for moving in the filename, it goes up and down on file selection

A similar issue is evident in "List" view, when renaming a file inside a folder whose "disclosure triangle" is expanded. If you happen to be working a few levels down, it closes them all.
Maddening!
If you feel so inclined, please submit a bug report. Hopefully issues that receive a lot of complaints will be addressed.

Repeatable Crash - Cover Flow

The iPod app consistently crashes when I scroll around in cover flow. The crash is repeatable, speed is not a factor. It will crash if I go slow or fast. After reboot, it will still crash but I can scroll a bit longer before it crashes again.
I have NEVER been able to get from A to Z without a crash.
Am I alone in this?
Info:
973 Songs
2.0 (5A347)

I can't say that you're alone, but I certainly don't have that issue. 996 songs (also 2.0, 5A347), can scroll end to end and back with no trouble, slow or fast.
Does it crash in a specific place? Could be a problem with some of your cover art...

Cover Flow shows wrong covers since iOS 4.3

Since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 4.3 the covers shown in Cover Flow are totally messed up, most of the covers are wrong. When I start a track and rotate the iPhone back to its normal position the right cover shows up. Also when I do not use Cover Flow and scroll through the albums normally (holding the iPhone vertically) every cover is correct.
Something seems to be wrong with the Cover Flow feature. Syncing and rebooting the iPhone didn't help. Although it might solve the problem I'm not willing to restore the iPhone.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I have this same problem and noticed it after "upgrading" to iOS 4.3 on my iPod Touch 4th gen. Various albums have swapped and incorrect cover art — some albums that can't even have cover art (WAV files) are showing others' cover art.
Resets haven't helped me, nor has delete all music and re-sync. This is really annoying, and I hope Apple fixes it soon!

Scratchy Sound When Sliding Through Covers in Cover Flow View in iTunes 8

Anyone having problems with a scratchy sound as you slide through covers in the cover flow view in iTunes 8?
Also sliding too fast has caused app to crash.

The scratchy sound seems to have come up a few times with iTunes 8 (including in a couple of other threads that I can't find right now). It seems to have picked up around the last QT update, which was coincident with the iTunes upgrade.
(post updated)
I must admit, I didn't read closely at 7:30 in the morning, and didn't see this was just happening to OP with cover flow.
But there have been a number of people (including me) complaining of general scratchiness in iTunes 8 and AirTunes that seems traceable to the last QT update. Be glad you aren't in my situation, where it's ALWAYS scratchy.

Removing cover flow from finder

Whenever i arrange my files with date modified they sort of come in cover flow under date like today, yesterday. I dont want those to be in cover flow but in icon form throughout. Is there a way to disable the cover flow???

yeah it would work if i arrange it according to name but if i do that for something like date it automatically becomes in coverflow even when the icon view mode is selected. In the screen shot you can see files under earlier are in cover flow

Cover Flow View not showing

On my ITunes, I'm not able to view any album covers on the Cover Flow View. All I get is a black screen with the following white text:
iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer.
Any insight as to why this is happening? I did not change any settings on my PC. I was thinking maybe I rejected some program on the firewall, but I don't recall anything specific to iTunes

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help: iTunes 7 for Windows is unable to display album covers in Cover Flow

Artwork in Cover Flow is blurry

For some reason the album covers in the cover flow view are very blurry. I realize that it gets less sharp as you make the image larger, however when I click on the album cover in the lower left hand corner, and make it the same exact size as the artwork in the cover flow, the image from the bottom left corner is noticeably sharper. Anyone have any ideas?
thanks in advance,
Lucas

I’ve sorted it. I clicked on the info tab and it shows each of the tracks as being part of a compliation - I just un-ticked the box and the artowrk now displays correctly

Annoying bug: Duplicate albums in the Cover Flow view

When viewing my music via the Cover Flow view (sorting Album by Artist) I frequently come across an album that appears twice. For example, I see two copies of Florence and the Machine's "Lungs" side by side. The first copy contains the first track on the album and the second copy has the remainder of the album.
My first thought was "Oh, I must have mislabeled the album field of that first track so it's being saved as a different album... maybe I put in an extra space or something." But when I view the album in the Finder, all the tracks are in the same album folder. Just to be sure, I selected all the tracks on the album in iTunes and made sure the Album info field was correct, checked the checkbox, and clicked OK. Still nothing changes.
I was finally able to fix this by selecting all the tracks on the album in iTunes and changing the Album info field to a completely NEW name (in this example "Lungs TEMP", then selecting them all again and renaming them BACK to the CORRECT name (Lungs). Ta da... Yea. Now there's only one "Lungs" album in Cover Flow.
No big deal if I only had to do this once, but this bug exists all over the place! 11,000 songs is a lot to sort through. It's almost like iTunes is caching bad data somewhere, but I don't know how to delete this cache.
Ideas? Anyone else seen this behavior?

It happens... See http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp for more.

Cover Flow Bugs

I have a couple of issues with cover flow. One is that one disk album has two covers. The other is that there is no order to cover flow. Is there any way to fix these annoying bugs in what looks like it other wise might be a useful feature?

There is a 100% way to fix this bug that's pretty simple, although it can be time consuming if you have a large library like I do.
iTunes pretty much looks at common characteristics like CD title and artist to determine what album covers to display. Now, if the software sees the same album title, but 5 different variations with the artist, it'll most likely tag your library to display the same album cover 5 times.
To get around this, select all of the tracks to an album that is displaying multiple covers by clicking on the top most track, then holding the shift key, clicking on the bottom most track. After that, right click on any of the highlighted tracks and select the "get info" option (for you single-button mouse users out there, I believe you hold the command button and click . Make sure the info tab is selected.
You will see a bunch of fields you can use to tag your music, but the one you want to key in on is the Album Artist field. By identifying one album artist, your telling the software that "this is all on album, don't get hung up on the variations". After you enter the album artist info and click "ok", it'll process the tracks that were selected and consolidate them all under one album cover!
This is the perfect solution for albums that feature a lot of different artists/guest stars, like OutKast's "Idlewild" CD, for example.

Cover Flow Blurred Album Art - Bug?

Cover Flow is losing focus on whatever the displayed album art is after a few seconds of scrolling (image becomes burry). Once this happens it stays that way and affects all album art until Cover Flow is exited. Happens at random, doesn't seem to be caused by any particular piece of album art. Can most often (but not always) be reset by going out of Cover Flow mode either by going to a non-landscape mode or exiting Cover Flow altogether, but it is extremely annoying to be continually dropping in and out of Cover Flow to try to read the album art. It didn't do this when I had only a few album covers, but once I started loading it up with a bunch of stuff I started having problems. Could this be something like a single defective album art image file causing Cover Flow to go wacko, or is it simply a general bug? Any fixes or anyone else having this problem?

Yep, The blurry coverflow happens to me ONLY if I haul * across the albums then it catches up to me in about 2 seconds.....
I guess this time is needed to render the artwork?
I have never had to exit for it to work properly. I also noticed something like this happening when flipping quickly through pictures.

Cover Flow bug or feature?

With Finder Preferences set to "Always open folder in a new window" and Finder view set to Cover Flow, double-clicking a folder icon in the top (Cover Flow) portion of the Finder window opens its contents in a new window behind the existing window, whereas double-clicking the same folder in the lower (List) section of the Finder window opens its contents in a new window in front of the existing window

Hi,
I installed Leopard yesterday and have exactly the same problem.I think its a bug but would be interested to know if a new install fixes it - its really annoying!

Bug report - Finder crashes in Cover Flow mode with large files

I just came back from the Apple store and was told that I have discovered another bug in Leopard. When in Cover Flow view in Finder and trying to browse directories with large ( multiple GB) files, Finder continually crashes and reboots, oftentimes with 2 new FInder windows.
I created a new user on my MBP to remove the effect of any preferences and the problem repeated itself.
Come up Apple... get on top of these bugs and issue some patches...
Not the kind of new OS I expected from a top notch company like Apple.

Ah... that'll be it then, they are 512 x 512. well i guess that bugs been hanging around for quite some time now, anyone got any ideas if anyone's trying to fix it? i guess making 128 x 128 icons wouldn't be the end of the world but it does seem like a step backwards.
one thing that still confuses me... an icon file contains icons of all sizes, why does cover flow not select the right size icon to display?
thanks for that info V.K., much obliged.
regards, Pablo.

Cover Flow file name covers preview image

Probably wishful thinking, but is there anyway to change Finder's Cover Flow settings so a file's name doesn't cover up the image?
(Preferably have the name under the image, like in Mavericks)

I have the same question. The file name covering part of the image is distracting and seems like the kind of thing that should be available as a setting. Seems strange that the designers would choose to move the file name on top of the image and obstruct it. I'd love to know if there is anyway to move the file name so that it isn't blocking part of the image. Using column view is an alternative option which provides a nice large and unobstructed view of images in much the same way but with the added slight load delay with larger images that cover flow seems to be without since thumbnails are loaded within the cover flow. Still covering images with a file name seems like something that slipped through the cracks.

Cover Flow Bug

I've noticed a bug in cover flow when using the iPod feature of the iPhone. When you first load cover flow, each of the artwork images is crystal clear. Flowing through each one, the images are perfect. However, if I scroll fast from side to side, after about 3 times, when I stop on each album, it's a bit blurry. I wait for it to become unblurry, but it stays that way. If I rotate my iPod to get out of cover flow, and back in, the covers again are just fine.
I am able to reproduce this bug every time. I don't know if anyone else has had this issue. I just bought my iPhone from the Apple store and I have the latest updates.
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE my phone! This is the best thing since my first iPod, my first Mac, my first..... yes, this is just great!!!!

When I am listening to a song and I go to cover flow it matches the song that's playing.
Yeah, but do this: put the iPod touch sideways in the little stand, so it's showing cover flow. If you never pick up or move the iPod, the cover that's displayed will never change. The only way to get it to refresh is to turn it vertical long enough for the currently playing song to show up, then back to sideways. I did some research and it seems that the iPhone does that, too, so I figured it was either deliberate on Apple's part, or just something they haven't implemented yet.
Here's what's kind of odd about it, though: cover flow knows when the song changes, because if you watch it closely, the text below the cover changes when the currently cover is not for the currently playing song. I don't have my iPod handy, but it's something like when the cover is current, it's the artist name and the name of the song that's playing. But when it switches to a new song, the song name is replaced by the album name. Something like that, anyway.
In any case, I've also sent feedback to have cover flow follow the currently playing track.
