  • Some artwork missing from iPod

    i have a 5th generation 80gb video iPod. i have spent several hours on Google Images downloading and adding artwork for all my albums that are not available on iTunes. when i updated my iPod, however, some of this artwork does not display on my iPod. all of the artwork that i downloaded from the iTunes store shows on my iPod. all of the artwork i added manually shows in iTunes. however, some of the artwork i added manually shows on my iPod, and some does not. i can't figure out why some of it shows and some doesn't. i have been very careful to make sure i add the artwork to every single song, and not just for an album. does anyone have any suggestions for me?

    I have the same problem. I added artwork manually to all the songs I burned from my CD's. They were all working fine until one day about 40% of them won't display anymore on my iPod, but they are visible when looking at the song through iTunes to the iPod while connected.
    I have done searches on this topic and have concluded that Apple has no idea what is wrong, what causes it, or how to fix it. There are many, many, many unanswered questions about this topic.
    People say to deselect the display options via iTunes then reselect it. But why? That does not work. And I think it assumes that everyone is synching 100% of their songs between iPod and iTunes (I don't, because I don't want many of those songs on my iTunes, but want them on my iPod).
    I would really like to know the root cause and have a reliable solution from someone. The artwork is on the iPod, but it just does not display it anymore on 40% of my songs.

  • 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.

  • Album artwork missing on iPod, but not in iTunes

    I went tto sync up my iPod Touch because a new song by Gorillaz was free to download (it's Do Ya Thing, great song by the way), but afterwards most of my album artwork was missing. Even stranger, only certain albums have it. All of the artwork is on iTunes. I use windows 7 Ultimate. Is there a bug with iTunes, or did I do something wrong?

    I get this on my iPod Touch 5th gen all the time. I think it just has to do with the files getting corrupted. Try removing the songs/albums with missing artwork from the iPad and then sync them back to the device from the cloud

  • Artwork missing on iPod after power interruption

    hi all.
    a nasty power interruption happened while my ipod is connected to the computer. now the pc restarted and my ipod disconnected however when i reviewed the songs, all the artwork is gone.
    when i connected it back on the computer, i unchecked the display artwork on ipod button and nothing happened. so i checked it again to display album artwork on ipod and it displayed optimizing artwork for ipod which took about few mins. now when i restarted my ipod it has the artwork back.
    prior to the problem, i still have about 1.2gb of free space, but when i checked display album artwok on ipod and after the optimization only 700 mb of free space was left.
    how can i get the used space back? when i looked into the artwork folder in the ipod control of the folders hidden on ipod it has few artwork database files. would it be possible that the artwork database made another file for the new optimization i made and ate up space this time? has anyone encountered the same? pls your inputs. thnx.

    thanks to your effort to answering my query. but restoring it will be the last thing that i'll have to do. as long as it plays music and videos.for me play counts are impt and if i restore it then i need to start paly count from scratch. if it's taken up a small space then i can bear with it in the meantime. i'll try to experiment things and find out how i can resolve it. thanks again.

  • Album artwork missing on Ipod

    This just happened, it used to work fine. I wanted to sync a new album and after syncing, every single album cover didn't show on the Ipod. I can't find a way to fix this. Other posts or questions are very old. Tried a few with no success. I'm running iTunes 10.7 and IOS 5.1.1 on the iPod Touch.

  • Why is some artwork missing from my iPod when it is correct in iTunes?

    I have had great trouble trying to sync my iPod Touch (4th Gen running iOS 6.0.1) with iTunes (10.7.0.21) for Windows. Every 2000 or so tracks (out of about 15,000), iTunes says that some tracks could not be copied and that the connection with the iPod has timed out. This has resulted in losing up to 12,000 already synced tracks, and having to startagain from scratch (at least three times). I have resolved the issue by just syncing two or three albums at a time until the fault occurs, and making sure that there is no syncing taking place when I have to do a hard reset to close iTunes. The problem I'm having now is that there are several albums with the artwork missing - despite the fact that it was ok on previous syncs, and the fact that it is all present and correct in iTunes! I've heard that you should clear the artwork cache - is this correct, and if so how do you do it?
    Any suggestions gratefully received!

    All I can suggest is:
    Try:
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • I am missing artwork on my ipod, how do i get it back

    i lost some artwork on my ipod 4g touch...it is in itunes but will not go over to my ipod...how can i get it back on the ipod?

    Well, firstly. The artwork you have on iTunes, did it come with the album when you downloaded/bought it, or did you get the picture off Google or something like that? The reason I ask this, is because if you got it off Google Images, the file might be to big to have as artwork on your iPod Touch.

  • All files deleted off iPod...

    Ok so i got an 80GB iPod and I spent about two hours or so loading all the music on the device. I got new Cd's and i put them in the itunes library. Now i ended up unchecking all of the other Cd's to put just the new ones on instead of waiting for all the cds to load again. what ended up happening is that all the files got deleted off my iPod. Do i just have to leave them all checked in iTunes? Any help would be great...
    iPod 80GB   Windows XP  

    I tried that
    and updating
    now all I get on my ipod is a folder with the exclamation mark on it... which im guessing means something is now missing off my ipod software wise.
    iPod doesnt even initialize in iTunes anymore
    I guess that means its time to take it back :/
    I still get the autoplay box when i plug this in. shrug
    When I go to restore I get a firmware error
    and it wont let me update at all.

  • Entire library of music erased off ipod after sync

    Ipod touch 5th gen 32 gb running IOS 8.2
    For the 4th time since updating to IOS 8.2, whenever i try to add new music to my ipod through itunes, when the ipod syncs with itunes, ALL of my music is erased off the ipod.
    Manually manage music and videos is selected. I do not have itunes/ipod automatically sync music. I have "prevent devices from syncing automatically" enabled.
    So heres the basic rundown of what happens.
    1-upload music to ipod
    2-let music copy over
    3-upload more music to ipod
    4-ipod/itunes begin sync
    5-syncing stops without copying music over
    6-all music vanishes off ipod after sync "completes"
    looking at my ipod music list in itunes, it shows all my music. when you click on them to play them, ! shows up next to ALL songs.
    when you look at the music on the ipod itself, nothing is there.
    this is what it looks like for the music that has be synced before, that has suddenly disappeared

    from my experience, the music is still there. the database is screwed up when itunes recognizes the music, but the ipod doesnt see it.
    what ive discovered, after the database crashes and everything is gone, see if you can find this info out. anytime ive had this issue, there are normally a few songs that wont copy over and itunes says "could not convert"(i have itunes setup to convert songs of high bitrate to aac 128kbps). when i go to delete those songs(because they show up on the ipod, but are greyed out), thats when the database crashes, and everything vanishes.
    my fix for this issue is this:
    unplug ipod from computer and turn off
    close itunes
    restart ipod
    open itunes
    plug in ipod
    sync ipod with itunes
    copy over one or two of failed songs
    watch itunes start to sync, sit at "waiting for changes to be applied" for a few minutes
    watch all my missing music reappear(over the course of about 10 hours, takes a few minutes to recopy 4000 songs)
    annoying and frustrating, but until apple can recognize this issue and put a fix in, this is the best solution i can think of besides throwing my ipod at the wall and fix the solution permanently. but that wont get me very far because of my lifeproof case.

  • ITUNES doesn't always load up and some artwork missing!!

    I have all my music on en external hard-drive and the itunes and artwork on my c:drive, occasionally when I open itunes it says importing itunes, this goes on for a while then it says it couldn'nt find the file and has renamed it itunes library damaged, it then opens itunes with all my songs but with alot of the artwork missing, this happens about once a fortnight - aarrhhh, why??
    Thanks

    Ok, so I went and found the album I was looking for and dragged it in, but the image is pretty poor.  Is that the best we can hope for?  Why can't Apple allow us to drag the image from iTunes store? Or better yet let us import the artwork without buying the album since I owned the album/cd long before there was any such thing as Apple, iTunes or iPods?

  • Where's the "Display album artwork on your iPod" preference?

    Everything seems to work fine with iTunes 9.0.1 and my iPod Classic 80G, except that it doesn't seem possible to remove album artwork from the iPod. I just read the article "[Viewing album artwork on iPod|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2317?viewlocale=en_US]" and I know that I just have to deselect the "Display album artwork on your iPod" preference in iTunes. The problem is that, after selecting my iPod under the Devices section in the iTunes Source pane, I can't find any such preference in the Music tab. I can see two radio buttons ("Entire music library" and "Selected playlists, artits, and genres") and one checkbox ("Include music videos"), but no "Display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox.
    Any idea?

    Since when has the left hand known what the right hand is doing in any organiszation.
    Can you give a reference supporting your statement ?
    From Apple? No. Plenty of threads in here though, both builds of iTunes 9 released for Mac & PC have been missing this feature and people have given feedback. This is either a policy change and it will remain that way or it was accidentally omitted during the redesign in which case it may reappear in a future build. Either way the control isn't magically missing from just your copy, it's the same for all of us.

  • ITrip not working with iPod 80gb

    Hi
    I've just purchased an iPod 80gb video and so far its great. Unfortunately my old Griffin iTrip doesn't fit on my new iPod so I had to get an iTrip which connects via the dock. The iTrip doesn't want to turn on however and I've tried turning my iPod off and on but with no luck.
    Has anyone else experienced problems between the new iPod and iTrip or could it just be my new iTrip is faulty???
    Em x

    I had just two weeks ago purchased the iTrip (Dock version) for my 30G 5th generation iPod, and it already ceased to work. I followed all the instructions (reset iPod and what not). I think it's a piece of junk, and overpriced.
