Before I was able to transfer Cover Art from on-line sources to albums that iTunes didn't have (even when many of these were purchased thru them!) now I can't. If it still possible how do I do so?

Hey Two Wolves,
Thanks for the question. Yes, you can still add your own Album Artwork to music in iTunes:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Add artwork to songs and other items
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12361
Add artwork to music and video
Do any of the following:
- Add artwork to one item at a time:
1. Select an item in your iTunes library and choose File > Get Info.
2. Click Artwork and do one of the following:
- Click Add, select an image file, and click Open.
- Drag the art file to the artwork area.
3. To add artwork to another item, click Next or Previous.
- Add the same artwork to multiple items: Select the items, choose File > Get Info, click Info, and drag an image file to the Artwork area.
- Retrieve album artwork for songs in your library from the iTunes Store: Control-click the songs and choose Get Album Artwork from the pop-up menu.
Thanks,
Matt M.

I was able to transfer my music from my old PC to my new one and connect to the newest version of ITunes but my playlists from my old PC do not appear on my new PC when I open ITunes. Any suggestions?
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

I would like to change the current song from the pull down tab so that I don't have to exit whatever app I'm in, return to music and change it. Is this possible?
Try double clicking the Home button and then swipe the bottom row fully to to the right to get to the music control

I have a new iMac running iTunes 10.4 in OS 10.6.8, and a new Mac Air running iTunes 10.4 in Lion. I was able to transfer all my music etc. from the iMac onto the Air, but cannot figure out how to get the Playlists from the iMac to the Air. iTunes Help says File >Library >Export playlist and choose XML, or to save a copy of all your playlists, File > Library > Export Library, "the Exported info is saved in XML format." Then it says, "to import an iTunes playlist, File > Library > Import Playlist". Now I am assuming I do that import part on the Air, but when I try it doesn't recognize anything that can be imported - what am I missing??? Aside from a clue...
Thanks, Jim, for taking the time, but the reply is unfortunately vague in the exact area of my confusion! "you need to copy that file to your new computer..." Well, the Import/Export instructions make it seem as if the two computers should be able to communicate this file thru wifi, but that's the linkage I can't seem tocreate with Import/Export. Should I instead email a copy to myself (thats what applecare suggested)? Copy it to and from a thumb drive? But then place the file where? And the article was helpful, but should I be trying to move the Library file or the Library.xml file (as iTunes Help suggests)? Sorry to be so clueless about it...I suppose I buy Apple in the hopes of not having to think about this stuff, which approach seems not to be serving me well. Thanks again for your time!

I recently purchased a new PC. I had backed-up my old computer on Carbonite, so I was able to transfer my iTunes library to the new computer when I downloaded my info from Carbonite, but the playlists are gone. Is there a way to restore my playlists?
Most of my playlists are on my iPod. If I use my iPod to transfer, will the songs double in my library? Also, how do I do this?
Thank you for any & all info you can provide!
JulieIf you had backed up and restored your library properly you should have ended up with the playlists too. Did you import the media folder from the backup drive into a new library rather than restoring the entire iTunes folder?

Was able to transfer itunes music from external drive to computer, but they won't play. There are "!" marks next to all transferred songs and a message reads "Unable to locate songs". How do i get the transferred songs to play without having the external drive connected.
Select a single song with a broken link, press CTRL+I to Get Info, cancel when asked to locate the track and take a look at the Summary tab. Post back where iTunes is looking for the file. It begins file://localhost
Where is it really?
Please post back both paths so that I can make suggestions. Full paths please, exact spellings, you can replace your user name with <User> if needed.

Can someone please help me with a Macbook Pro booting question?
Recently, my mid 2010 MacBook Pro has started acting up when I am on Safari. Safari would unexpectedly crash multiple times in a row, then run fine for a while, then again, crash repeatedly. Not long after this began happening, an error message from my Prosoft Drive Genius 3 software, threw out a message that a serious error had occurred and I needed to repair the HD volume. Before I was able to run the software to repair the HD volume, the machine stopped working. I turned off the Macbook and when I tried to restart, it would not boot. I have since removed all external hardware from my machine and tried several times, unsuccessfully, to boot. I have also tried booting in safe mode when also does not work.
Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.Try SMC reset:
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. (four keys together)
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer. -
IPhone messed up before I was able to back it up, it messed up my apps...
I had been experiencing various app crashes and a general slow-running system on my iPhone, so I decided that it would be best if I restored it. However, before I was able to do so, my iPhone completely crashed and I was forced to do a restore without properly backing it up. This was not a very smart move on my part, as I had downloaded several apps (some of which were 'free for a limited time') on the iPhone which weren't transferred to my computer. One of these apps in particular, which was free for a limited time, I used frequently. I was wondering, as I did download it and was using it for over a month, if there is a way that I can re-download that app without having to pay for it (now its price has returned to normal). I know that the original price is not very expensive - and if paying is the only way to get it again, I am fine with it - but I was just wondering if there was a chance that I could download it for free. Thanks for any suggestions!
Welcome to the discussions,
if you don't have a backup of your itunes/Mobile Applications folder which was part of your regular PC -backup routine or a backup of your iphone backup, you'll probably have to buy the app again. Even if you show the developers of the app your itunes download history, you would be very lucky if they grant you a second download for free. -
I need help from some Apple people. I have an iPod Touch and I wanted to load it up with some fresh music but I currently don't have a PC. I found an app that would allow me to connect to my 2TB network drive directly and I was able to transfer a bunch of music files to the iPod. Unfortunately, these new files do not show under the Music app and I can't seem to find any way to convince the iPod that they are music. I can play them through the file manager only. Android doesn't have this problem, any music I put on my phone is recognized as music and can be played through any of the music apps. Am I missing something or is Apple to inflexible to handle this?
You can't. The only way to get songs in the Music app is to sync from a computer or to download from iTunes.

I am able to transfer my photos from my iPone 4s to my PC with Windows Vista but it won't transfer my videos? Does anyone know how to do this?
I have Vista (don't laugh) and my videos are transferred over when I plug in my phone. They don't open up in Winodws Picture Viewer though.
They are under my Photos, under the date created by the sync. Do a search I'm sure you'll find them. -
Is it possible for deleting all the apps from the appstore which are showing up in the apps not on my phone section. Before I was able to delete them from itunes but now I am not able to find that option.
You can hide them via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
The 'x' might not show on their top left corner (it might be invisible), but clicking where it should be should hide the app. -
