Approx amount of songs - does this include album art?

Hi,
I am deciding on the 1GB or 2GB, 1 GB will probably be enough for my type of use, however,
If the approx amount of songs for a 1gb is around 240, based on 4 mins, AAC..etc, Does the approx amount of 240 songs include each song having album art showing, if not, how many songs am I looking at if each song has album art as I may need to get a 2GB if it significantly reduces.
Cheers,
Walshy

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
The estimate includes the album artwork.
However, I would still get a larger iPod just to allow for more music. Also, the iPod can be used to store files, store and view photos, etc., all of which you may want to take advantage of and require more space.

My 16GB iPhone 4S has 4.40GB of "other" file. What does this include and how do I reduce it? Kindly help me.

Text messages, MMS messages, email, music catalog, operating system settings, safari cache, siri cache, Genius data (if enabled), game center data -- esentially everything on your phone that isn't explicitely listed in the bar chart at the bottom of iTunes on your computer.
Sometimes there is also data corruption on the phone that ends up in Other. To get rid if it try restoring the phone with iTunes. If that makes no difference the corruption is in your backup; restore again as a new phone, then add content back.

Songs Won't Play, Album Art Not Modifiable, ID3 Tags, Need Help

I have a 32 GB iPod Touch, Windows Vista, the latest version of iTunes and Quicktime as well as the latest iPod software.
I noticed the other day that a bunch of my songs were missing album art. I have a library with almost 7,000 songs and I have album art for everything. I went to the songs to attempt to fix the album art and noticed that it said, Album Art Not Modifiable, in the Album Art preview screen. I thought that was weird and it wouldn't let me add new album art to these albums.
I also noticed that none of these songs would play. They wouldn't play on my iPod or on iTunes. You can click play and it looks like it's going to play, but the counter never leaves "0".
I thought something was wrong with my files and that I would have to re rip or download the songs. However, by chance I opened one of the songs in Window Media Player and it worked, so I knew the files were fine.
I did a search online and found several people with the same problem and a few things to try. But nothing worked until I stumbled upon a solution of setting the ID3 tags to version "None", then setting them to version 2.4. I tried it and it worked.
But now it keeps happening, I get a new group of albums every day that won't play.
Can anyone tell me what is causing this?
How do I prevent it?
Do I really need to take every song in my library and change the ID3 tags, that could take forever?
Could anyone please help and shed some light on this.
Thank You

Thanks for replying, Please read our Operating System details before taking a guess about what 'could' be the problem...
I think I figured it out anyway, Windows Media Player might be adding extra information that iTunes does not like, either Windows Media Player and/or iTunes 7.7.1 don't conform to ID3 v2.4 standards...
Please fix your software, Apple. I know how you love to be unique and mock PC users with your one-sided advertisements but at least conform to the ID3 standards.

Songs with the same album art not grouped together in iTunes for Windows

Brand new iTunes user here - do not yet have an iPod! (Needed some music only on iTunes)
When I first started up iTunes, it imported all of my music I already had on my computer. A few of them are soundtracks with different artists.
When they are shown in the iTunes library, the soundtracks have been broken up by Artist instead of staying as a whole album. How do I get the songs back together as one album? I found the folder on my computer where they are stored and combined them there, but they are still separate in the iTunes library.
Thanks from a total newbie!

Mark the tracks on the album as "Part of a compilation" and fill in the Album Artist field as "Various Artists". Click on the first track of your album to highlight it, hold down the shift key and click on the last track to highlight everything in between. Right click on the selection and choose Get Info. You'll get a message asking if you want to edit multiple items, say yes. If you are using iTunes 8 in the box that opens go to the Options tab and change "part of a compilation" to Yes and choose OK.
Also in your library click on the title bar of album column to bring all the tracks in the same album together. If you keep clicking in the title you can choose it to sort by Album, Album by Artist or Album by Year. Clicking on the little triangle on the right side of the column header changes the sort direction. Pointing up and the column is sorted in Ascending order (A to Z). Pointing down and the column is sorted in Descending order (Z to A).

I have just downloaded Firefox and browsed with it but in the box headed 'a little housekeeping' the green line is only approx 90% complete. Does this matter please?

Today I downloaded Firefox and successfully accessed my online bank account which IE wouldn't allow me to do so. However, whenever I logon, the box headed 'A Little Housekeeping' appears which has the green line indicating the progress of a little housekeeping frozen at 90% completion. Does this matter?

Mac died, hard disk data recoverable - does this include Desktop files?

Hi there,
My G5 died (well, it fell victim to my ex's violent outrage - logic board dead), anyway... I have had my hard disk made up so I can mount it / access it on my new mac. But will this include the files that were saved on my Desktop?
Thanks in advance,
Bree

The desktop is just a graphical representation of a folder inside your User's home folder. Naturally, the folder is named "Desktop." For those that work in a cluttered environment and have a hard time finding files or folders on their desktop, you can see the contents of the desktop in alpha/numeric list view by going to the desktop folder (Users->[your user name]->Desktop).

How can I reset all my song data - genre, year, album art etc. from CDDB?

Like most people I've built up my music collection over quite a few years.
In the old days, album info often couldn't be found online, and I had to input data manually.
Also, new fields have appeared in the CDDB since I imported some older tracks.
This means that a lot of my songs have data missing in fields, poor quality album art, or inconsistent genres etc.
Is there anyway to strip out this information and get iTunes to go back to the CDDB and download the info (for tracks already in the library) afresh?
The obvious way, selecting an album and choosing "get CD track names" doesn't seem to work if there is already data there, even if it's manually entered and incorrect.
Also, if you try and get new album art, iTunes won't replace art manually associated with the files (i.e. that I added myself from a low-res image 5 years ago).
This must be a fairly common issue - can anyone help to solve it?
Obviously the more global the solution the better - i.e. a way to do it to multiple albums, rather than one track at a time!
Many thanks in advance
T.

I have bad news for you...I tried doing the same thing a while back and couldn't find any easy way. Eventually, I had to strip the mp3 tags from the songs and (using a third party mp3 tag editor) had software that automatically looked them up on the net and put the info back in. Then, I had to get the album artwork in iTunes. Quit a pain! I did it one album at a time. Good luck!

How do I include album art on a cd burn from itunes playlist

every song in my playlist has the same album art (something i created for the playlist).
when i burn a cd it burns all the information over EXCEPT the album art is missing.
is there a setting that i can change that will allow me to burn the playlist with album cover too?

I don't know about AAC but with mp3 files you can embed artwork. For general use, iTunes keeps its own copy of artwork in a separate folder and it isn't part of the mp3 file. This happens when you use iTunes to get artwork for an album. If you manually add artwork to a mp3, or use Dougscript embed artwork script, it will add it to the mp3 itself so it gets carried over when you copy the file. Note, this also increases the size of the mp3 file. itunes will still keep its own copy, and if you want to ensure the artwork is attached to each individual mp3 file you have to embed a copy in each file which ends up taking up more hard drive space. If you have a 3 minute mp3 at 128k quality which is 3 MB in size, and add a high-quality 1MB image to it, suddenly you've increased the amount of space your collection needs by 33%.

Does iTunes take album art with it from computer to computer?

I am going to transfer my entire iTunes library to a new computer in a few weeks. Will iTunes automatically take all my album art with it to the new computer, or will I have to have to find it all again?
I listen to mainly classical music, so iTunes has a hard time finding most of my album art. It was a painstaking process of searching amazon.com for hours to get most of the album covers...I'd hate to have to do it again.
Thanks in advance to anyone who has experience with this!

I'm resurrecting this old thread because the question wasn't answered and I face the same problem. I want to copy my music from my external HD to an internal HD and want the album artwork I've painstaking downloaded from Amazon and other sources (cduniverse, google image search, etc) to be preserved. By "album artwork", I mean that I've dragged the image into the album artwork box in the lower-left of the iTunes window - I haven't embedded it into each individual track's ID3 tag area.
Using "consolidate library" followed by an iTunes-initiated copy isn't what I want. Let me explain why.
Currently my large collection of MP3's is on an external H.D. but doesn't live in the iTunes folder. The top-level folders are -
\iTunes
\My Music\_A-D
\My Music\_E-J
\My Music\_M-R
\My Music\_S-Z
\My Music\CLASSICAL
\My Music\SOUNDTRACKS
\My Music\VARIOUS
... and under each top-level folder there are artist\album folders containing the actual music.
If I consolidate, everything will be merged into artist\album format under iTunes, which will me more of a pain to navigate outside of iTunes. Instead, I want to preserve the current \My Music structure.
Right now I keep the \iTunes folder and \My Music on the external HD which I mount as "T:" under Windows XP SP2 on my home PC, my laptop, or my office PC. That way iTunes works fine in all three places. But I'd like to copy the whole library onto the internal "E:" drive of my home machine or my office machine and have the library look like it does now, with artwork intact.
But I'm pretty sure if I just do the copy that I'll lose all the album artwork, since it must reference files on the external HD T:\[etc] explicitly, which won't exist when I copy the database to the internal HD E:\[etc] and eject the external HD.
Does anyone know how to do this? Are there 3rd-party tools which can re-reference the album artwork database before or after the copy?

Song data changes and album art not updating

I've been using itunes for a couple of years pretty smoothly, but lately (past 2 months or so), I've noticed a degradation in the performance. When I go to update the album art or other song info for a whole ablum at a time, maybe only 6 tracks are updated. It can take 4 or 5 repeated attempts before it finally "sticks" for some tracks. This also happens sometimes when I'm updating a single track, but there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to which tracks are affected and which aren't.
Other functions are fine: playback, burning, importing, just the maintenance of the data attached to tracks.
My first guess is RAM, I've only got 256 megs, and my library sits a little over 50 gigs. I know upgrading my RAM makes sense on many levels, but I couldn't find any topics with a similar problem, so I wanted to rule out other possibilites too.
Thanks!
Vaio desktop Windows XP Pro 256 RAM, library on external HD

I think they've all been ripped, and Gracenote didn't have correct or complete info. Not all of the tags were v2.3, but they were v2.2 at least. Was there really that big of a difference between the revisions?
I just tried updating the tags to v2.3, and the same thing happened! Only 3 of the 16 tracks show as having updated to v2.3, the rest are still v2.2, or oddly enough show as none (despite having info displayed in the library and "get info" screens). I bet I can get the remaining tracks to v2.3 after repetition, but it's a pain to have to do the same action 5 times to make it stick.
Not the source of the problem, but a complicating factor was that I tried the wmp11 beta, and it seemed to have stolen the album art from itunes. Those albums which showed up in wmp (only about 15-20% of my collection)were the exact same ones which disappeared in itunes. When I went to repair the album art gaps in itunes is when this issue went from a minor annoyance to a clear sign something was wrong.

When I preview a song in iTunes, the album art preview shows up blurry

So anytime I preview a song in iTunes store, whenever I click on the small album art icon (at the top) to bring up the smaller player, the album art shows up blurry.
Has been happening for the past three or four iTunes releases. How can I fix it?
When I purchase the song, the album art downloads just fine though. Funny thing is, if I preview a different song from the same album, the album art loads fine. Not sure whats going on.

Make sure that these two options in Edit > Preferences > Store are turned off:
Then exit iTunes and open it up again. Your metadata entries should then be persistent - with these options checked iTunes will be comparing what you have with the information held in the iTunes Store, and will overwrite with the latter for Store purchases (and if you have iTunes Match). If you have any iOS devices you should also turn off Show All Music under Settings > Music.

While playing, Front Row does not display album art but a white image only

When I go through my music library via Front Row, the album art is still visible, however, as soon as I play a track, the cover disappears and there's a white square instead that, as usual, changes its position from the left to the right side. Could that be due to size limitations? My album art is 2400 x 2400, approximately 4 MB each. Thanks.

Same for me on my Mac Mini: I can see the shared pictures but can't see the ones in the local library. Funny thing is that I can see that library from my other Mac.
Also I noticed that one picture appeared in the middle of the (empty) slideshow, only 1 of 67. In the list view, those pictures appear normally, as you can see in this screenshot http://d.pr/eiXB
I'm a first-time iLife user, so I don't know if the issue is '11-specific.

Has anyone experienced some of their downloaded music files 'clipping' off before the end of the songs. I have over 3000 songs and just started experiencing approx 1 in 20 songs doing this

I have a significant number of my music files that are clipping up to a minute off their songs. I have approximately 3500 songs and began experiencing issues with 1 in 20 files.
I am operating with Win XP. Have had I Tunes for several years and never had this issue before.
