Artist profile picture gone in music app, how to get it back?
Hi Guys,
I got an Iphone 5s 16gb space grey recently and i restored from backup after updating it from 7.1 to 7.1.2.
I noticed that from my backup before and my old phone before my 5s (4s) that in the artists view in the Music app, there were artists profile picture which im presuming are their pictures from itunes. So that's what's showing on the artists view instead of the usual album covers from the artists music. If apple didnt have a "profile picture" for a certain artist then they would just show normal album covers from that artists which is also fine.
However, after I updated and set up as new iphone (then restore from backup), the "profile pictures' from Apple are gone and the artist views are just showing album covers from the different albums that the artist have. Does that make sense? I actually quite like the Apple artist profile picture and would like for them to show up again, instead of the normal album covers. Hopefully that makes sense and any help or advice will be appreciated.
Regards
bump

I synced my iphone to my computer and all my music on my itunes on the computer is gone does anyone know how to get it back?
They should be in the Photos app (help on syncing photos is here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236) - if they don't show then check that Settings > General > About > Photos isn't 0, and you could also try a reset to see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

IPhone Apps how to get them back?
So say your hard drive melts down and you have to start fresh, and you dont have a backup of your iphone apps (which takes way too many hours with anything over 10 apps) How would you go about retrieving all the apps you have already purchased without having to re-buy them all? Or say you just want to buy a new machine.
Get an external hard drive and back up your internal hard drive. If your hdd melts down you'll lose a lot more than iPhone apps!
If you have already downloaded an app and buy it again (as long as you are using the same iTunes Store account) you are prompted that you have already purchased the app, and you can download it again for free. -
IPhone/iTunes music lost - how to get it back without having to pay again?
I have an iPhone 3Gs I am very frustrated and upset at the moment. I have spent a lot of money over the past year on downloading music for my iPhone, some of it straight to the phone and sometimes straight into iTunes.
Now I just upgraded to the 4.0 software and it has wiped all of my music from my iPhone except what I purchased on my iPhone that day. I have some of my music backed up on a harddrive, but there seems to be loads of albums missing still (I have all the receipts emailed to me).
Is there not a button that tells you which things you have purchased in iTunes so can just redownload them for free? It wants me to pay again when I have tried!
This is not fair! I don't understand why it wipes my iPhone every time I update the software. Please someone help me find my music and get it back on my iPhone?
Many thanks,
Shellythough slightly off topic, the following post by Zevoneer in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8794716 says it all:
Did you back up your purchases before you you reinstalled your system? If you erased your drive then the purchases will have been erased along with everything else. If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from (as you are advised to do) then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link you'll be able to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

Files missing from native notepad app, how to get them back?
I had a lot of files in the native Notepad app. That app apparently updated today (without asking me first), and deleted all but one file. Is there a way to get them back? Should I just contact Apple about this, or are they not likely to have the file either?
I assume by "native Notepad" app, you mean Notes. If you have been backing up (via iCloud or itunes) any notes present for the last backup can be recovered via a restore from that back up, but you would lose any content not in the back up. No Apple wouldn't have them.
Unless you just got around to updating iOS to 6.1.4, the app itself didn't update. Its built into iOS. -
Music App - Artist Profile Picture(s)?
G'day all. I have a question i've longed wondered of since IOS 7 came out.
Since the IOS 7 update, iTunes have set Artist 'Profile' pictures, meaning for each Artist, there is a goup photo showing who is in the band, e.g;
Pink Floyd has David Gilmour, Roger Waters, Nick Mason and Richard Wright in a group photo.
Linkin Park has Chester Bennington, Brad Delson, Mike Shinida, Rob Bourden, Pheonix and Joe Hahn.
But there's other bands who don't have photos? Such as Aerosmith, Faith No More, Guns N' Roses, Icehouse and Johnny Cash (i have many more but yeah)
Can someone explain why bands don't have a photo? Is it they weren't a noticeable enough band to have a photo? (not that GNR and all that aren't big :|)
Cheers :)The bands you listed do have a picture in the iTunes Store. For some reason the Music app doesn't show those images. Usually when I open iTunes on my iPhone, the right artist images are shown, however not always.

You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. If you sync with another iTunes library/computer the media from the iPod will be deleted and replaced with the media on the second computer.

Well, if you have not backed them up, they are gone.
Next time, when you have important material in only one place, back it up.
