Artwork won't paste

I am having trouble posting artwork for cd's I have downloaded from my collection. It has been working fine and I know how to post artwork. Suddenly it is not working. The only change I have made is that I added an external hard drive and moved all files there then deleted off my main C drive. Everything is working perfectly from this transition except artwork. They are probably not related, but could the nwe hard drive have anything to do with this? What can I do to fix this?

Ah, OK. That sounds like the classic Windows permissions problem . It's much easier to fix in Vista and Win 7. On XP home, it often takes restarting into safe mode to set the permissions correctly.
The quickest thing to try (before safe mode boot) is simply right-clicking on the exHD top-level music folder, and making sure the read-only box is NOT checked. Another thing would be to cilck the file sharing box for that folder and allow everyone.
After changing permissions, relaunch itunes so it will read the new settings and see if you can edit.

  • Pasted Artwork Won't Remain

    I'm pasting artwork into a track in iTunes 10.2.1, it shows up fine in the artwork window, but when I close the window and reopen it, the artwork is no longer installed. I have thousands of tracks in iTunes, and have only occasionally run into this problem - very frustrating.
    What can I do to get the artwork to stay pasted into the track?

    No phone can send photos via SMS. You would need MMS (or iMessage or a 3rd party app such as WhatsApp). SMS messages are limited to 160 characters of text only.

  • Some album artwork won't display on iPod Classic

    I've had a strange problem recently with my new iPod Classic(and, come to think of it, my 2nd gen. iPod Nano): certain album artwork won't properly display, but will instead show up as a black square(like the 5th Metallica album, or the Spinal Tap album...). Sometimes, this happens only with certain songs on an album. For instance, I purchased 2 songs from the album "Employment" by Kaiser Chiefs last year. Recently, I purchased the CD, and I imported it to my computer. I chose "get album artwork" so the album cover would display for the newly imported songs, as well as the 2 I already bought. Now, the 2 songs I bought last year display their artwork normally, but the newly imported tracks just display the black square.
    What's going on, and how can I fix it?
    Thanks in advance..

    in iTunes, choose to not *display Album Artwork on your iPod*, then sync your iPod, then change it back to display album artwork and sync again. I believe that will fix it.

  • Some album artwork won't display on iPad

    Hi guys,
    Some of the song's album artwork won't display on my iPad or iPhone but shows up against each song in the album on iTunes on my Mac. There are entire albums' artwork not showing, yet when I open and play the same song in iTunes on my mac, it's there.
    Any ideas?

  • Album artwork won't display on iPod?

    I have been struggling with this problem for awhile now -- any help would be appreciated!
    When I have my iPod plugged into my computer, I can see all of the album artwork that is set for my music on my iPod through iTunes. However, when my iPod is playing on its own, none of the album artwork will display. I have "display album artwork" set in the options. I have tried unchecking this option, ejecting the iPod from the computer, reconnecting the iPod, then rechecking the option, but this hasn't worked. Any ideas how I can fix this?

    I believe this may have to do with how you are assigning the artwork to the albums. It seems like you have to assign the album art to every song in the album in order for it to show correctly on your ipod. For example, if you have a song playing in iTunes and you paste the artwork in the "paste artwork here" in the lower left corner; that is only updating the current song (even if you select multiple).
    I have found the easiest thing to do is as follows (windows):
    Highlight all the songs in an album. Right click-->Get Album Artwork. Pray that works. If iTunes can't find the artwork then plan B:
    1) go to Amazon.com or or google images and find an image and the copy (just right click-->copy).
    2) select all songs for an album-->right-click-->Get Info-->Check "Artwork", right-click-->paste

  • Images won't paste from clipboard to PS CS5 - is this a bug?

    Hi
    If I copy an image from a browser or anywhere on my machine, it won't paste into CS5.  Sometimes it does to start off with, but then it won't anymore.
    If I paste the image into MS Paint, it appears, but not in CS5.
    Anyone figured out a workaround for the glitch?
    I tried purging the clipboard, but it didn't fix the problem.
    Cheers
    Shaun

    Hi guys
    - No - the problem does not exist with PrntScr - I can paste in a whole screen, but not an copied image.  But can still paste a copied image into MS Paint.- is that a clue?
    - I will update the drivers
    - no Nik plugs
    Thanks guys

  • I am trying to use the business card template, but every time I go to copy/paste, my original image won't paste, and everything else disappears.  Anyone have any thoughts on this?

    I am trying to use the business card template.  But every time I go to copy/paste my original image (which I have grouped according to directions) it won't paste, and everything else disappears.  Anyone got any thoughts on this?

    OK I'll bite.

  • Artwork won't show

    My nano won't show artwork like it's suppossed to. I tried the whole, "check and uncheck display album artwork on your iPod" under preferences. Then I get an error message as follows: The iPod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured (-50).
    What should I do?

    I'm having the same problem with album artwork not dragging.
    -tried dragging with all tracks selected.
    -tried dragging individually.
    -tried going to GET INFO and drag to the mini picture placeholder, for all tracks and individual tracks.
    -tried dragging to the Artwork tab within GET INFO.
    I've made sure that SELECTED SONG is showing, and not NOW PLAYING.
    The songs I'm trying to update are not playing while I try updating.
    Can anyone think of anything else?

  • Illustrator CS 6 won't paste into a text box/paragraph of text, instead pastes a new line of text in the upper left corner of my document. How can I get it to paste into the selected paragraph or highlighted text like normal?

    I've done it a million times, I copy a selection of type...I select the type that I want to replace it with, and then I paste. Now, Illustrator will only paste the text as a "point text" (a single line) somewhere else on the artboard—it seems to always be the upper left corner of the art board.

    peg,
    In cases of sudden appearance of strangenesses, the list may be relevant, hopefully the easy part at the top.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • In Mavericks it won't paste to USB and other external Storages. USB Locked

    In Mavericks it won't accept copy/paste
    I have a HDD capacity of 998.7GB with Available 899.64GB
    It says used 99,052,994,560 bytes.  My USB drive is 16GB freshly formatted and work with all other computers with copy/paste.
    In Mavericks I can copy/paste to a mapped drive on my NAS if I first right click and go to ‘Get-Info’ on the NAS icon and in the General area’s Tick the ‘unlock’ box. 
    If I right click on the USB and go to ‘Get-Info’, in the General area I only get a Share Folder Tick box and not an Unlock Tick box.  Share does not allow paste to activate
    I can copy/paste on the iMac's Hard Hrive to any folder with no restictions. If I try to copy/paste to an outside source i.e. USB – DVDRW – external HDD or NAS, it does not give the PASTE option in the drop down menu.  If I drag and drop a file, I get a circle with the line through it when placed in the folder and does not copy/paste.  I think that’s an error or stop signal. 
    How do I permanently Unlock Mavericks’ paste?
    Thank you

    According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
    the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
    It does not use SD cards.
    Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
    Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
    But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy.

  • ITunes U artwork won't display in iPhone

    _Short version:_
    This is the issue...this is how my iTunes U list displays in my phone:
    http://www.imagebam.com/image/25438b106212904
    But audiobooks display normal...
    http://www.imagebam.com/image/85e882106212891
    Obviously, the iTunes U list should display like the audiobooks list.
    _Long version:_
    This is a really annoying issue and I have tried a lot of fixes. Basically everything works normal in every other circumstance, but when I view my itunes U list in the iPhone, every single thumbnail that is supposed to display next to the album/course name appears instead as the default blank music note.
    Artwork images display fine when I'm viewing the list of music albums, audiobooks and anything else. I have assigned an image to every individual episode of iTunes U content...and when that specific episode is playing, the artwork is shown like normal. So the ID3 tag is there...and even the phone can recognize the image...
    It's only when viewing the list of iTunes U courses that the artwork doesn't display (and frankly this is the most important, as it helps identify which course/lesson I'm about to choose).
    Attempted solutions:
    I have tried everything I can think of. I read that some MP3 audio files, "have known issues displaying track Artwork information" and that Apple recommends either converting the files to MP3 files tagged as ID3 version 2.4 or converting the files to the AAC file type format (.m4a). I tried both of those things.
    I removed all iTunes U content from my phone, used iTunes ver 10.0.1.22 to convert the ID3 tag of one episode in one course, and to convert one episode from another course from mp3 to m4a. I deleted the images tied to those, and then reassigned new images. I then synced the phone...same story.
    I tried using smaller images. I tried using different image formats (jpg, png).
    The only thing that (kind of) worked is downloading directly from the iphone in the itunes app. The weird part there is though, the thumbnail image that displays is actually a completely different image from what is on the ID tag...when I sync the phone with itunes on the computer and the episode that was downloaded straight to the phone shows up on the computer...the image is completely different. And if I sync the phone again...the iTunes U list in the phone is devoid of artwork again.
    ANY NEW IDEAS?

    I'm having a similar problem. I'm not creating the podcasts, but I am trying to view one that has chapter artwork. The podcast is "gdgt weekly" which you can download through the iTunes store.
    The chapter artwork displays just fine on my iPhone, but won't display in iTunes 9, yet I can click on the Chapters menu and see small thumbnails of the chapter artwork.
    How do I get the chapter artwork to display in the main window during playback of the podcast.

  • Movie artwork won't display in home share on iPhone

    I just finished encoding a bunch of my movies and using MetaX to quickly add all the meta tags (most specifically the artwork). I imported these movies to iTunes and everything has been great. Again, most importantly, the art work was showing on my iPhone (via home sharing) and Apple TV.
    I had to restart my computer soon after importing the movies and now the art work won't show up for any of the movies on my iPhone (Apple TV is fine). I just get a still shot as the picture so I have no idea which video is which unless I tap the still shot and it'll have the title. Oddly enough, the art work shows up in this same place (above the title) but it won't show up at the main page which shows all my videos.
    I just checked my wife's iPad and it's working fine there. I tried rebooting the phone, closing all apps and rebooting the computer again. Any other suggestions?

  • PodCast chapter artwork won't display in iTunes

    I recently put together a PodCast walking tour, which had images of the different stops for each chapter. However, these do not display when the PodCast is played through iTunes (when it's retrieved from the feed, or when the file is played outright). However, the images/chapters display in QuickTime and on the iPod itself. Can someone tell me why this might be, and how I can fix this?
    Thank you!

  • Podcast Album Artwork won't upload.

    My first podcast was uploaded about a week ago and I haad no idea what I was doing, I just assumed (I use libsyn for my host) where it said image would be the art work, I now know that it wasn't. So i've search everywhere on libsyn but I can't find the spot for it. So i've tried to add the extra rss feed code for the image but I don't think that has worked. Please help!

    Hi,
    I have the same problem with music files. I use itunes to help memorize stuff for school. If I take a file into an audio editor and alter it (cut a piece or add to it) and then bring it back into itune, I can not add artwork or lyrics. It will let me paste them there but when I close the dialogue box everything I've entered disappears. This has been frustrating me to no end because it was not true of previous versions of itunes. I used to be able to take one big file and chop it into little ones and add appropriate artwork and lyrics. It was a great help in memorizing vocabulary lists for foreign languages. I think the intuitive code that allows itunes to fetch lyrics and artwork is the problem. Does anyone know if there's a way to toggle or disable it?
    Best regards!
