Can't add cover to albums

Now first off all, I apologize for the english and spelling, but i am from Denmark.
Second off all i have problems in itunes with some of the albums.
I simply can't add album artwork to the the album, not even manually.
Now these pictures should explain what I mean:
I've got this album and have added a lot off data and this is not the only album, but!
I can't add the album cover. I go in to see the information about the songs and see:
I can't get acces to the artwork option/fan.
Someone who can help?

Well I found the answer elsewhere outside of this Apple forum.
You cannot add cover art unless all of the files in the album are MP3.
This brings up another problem because my iTunes preferences are set up such that the MP3 encoder converts music files to MP3.
However, apparently this function is not working consistently, and sometimes it converts WAV to MP3 and sometimes it doesn't.

  • Can I add photo stream albums to SkyDrive

    Can I add photo stream albums to my SkyDrive albums?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photos in the camera roll are those which (in most cases) are taken on the device, the photostream album contains photos which have been synced from photostream in the cloud, which can include photos from your camera roll as well as from other devices using photostream. Photostream photos can be lower resolution than the same photos in the camera roll.
    Photos in photostream can be edited and saved to other albums.

  • Can't add songs, only albums...?

    A quest to get more money from me? I can only add albums to my cart (no, I didn't upgrade iTunes to 9.x, still got a cart). Any work-arounds?

    Error code in red is: "Could not add an item to your cart. An unknown error occurred (5002)." iTunes version 8.2. This only happens with songs, I can add albums fine. I can also one-click to purchase, which I discovered accidentally. I tried trashing iTunes.plist to no avail; upon signing in to my account had the same prob. Thinking about creating a new account and trying that.
    Any 8.2 users out there? Having this issue?

  • Can I add a different album to an existing calendar project?

    Hi there,
    I got a few calendar projects printed last year that worked well.
    I could create brand new projects with this year's photos, but I'm wondering if I can just duplicate and reuse the projects from last year.
    I duplicated the calendar projects OK, changed settings to this year, and managed to remove photos from the layout and the photo sidebar.
    Now I can't see any way to add a new album with this year's photos.
    I've tried dragging and dropping from the project/albums list on the left to the calendar project photo sidebar on the right but they just bounce.
    I can't see anything in menus, nor have my searches here found anyone even asking about it.
    Am I the only one lazy enough to try and recycle a calendar project from the year before?
    Thanks for any tips.
    Andrew

    in the main iPhoto window drag the new photos to the calendar project in the source pane on the left

  • Can't add artwork to album

    I have imported many cd's recently and since installing the latest Leopard update I have had a strange issue appear in iTunes relative to artwork.
    Some albums did not find artwork to download (par for the course), so I went out to Google images or Amazon and downloaded the image, or I scanned it (as a jpg).
    The problem is that I cannot add the artwork to the songs. I am not a novice iTunes user and I have over 50,000 songs in my collection and this is the first time I've had this issue. I have tried the following methods to no avail:
    1. Select all the songs in the album, Get Info and drag jpg image to the little artwork box or double click the box and find the file on my hard drive.
    2. Select a single song, Get Info, click on artwork tab and drag jpg image to the little artwork box or double click the box and find the file on my hard drive.
    3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 with a single track. All 4 of these actually show the artwork, but when I click Ok to save it, it never shows up in Cover Flow or the Now Playing box. When I go back into Get Info, it's gone.
    4. Select a playing track and drag the jpg file to the Now Playing "Drag Album Artwork Here" display box.
    5. Select a playing track, copy the jpg file from a Finder window, right click in the Now Playing "Drag Album Artwork Here" and select paste (this actually does add a blank white box which I can then select and delete in the Get Info window for a single track).
    All of these methods have worked for me in the past (right up until about 11/21), and now not a single method will work. Nov. 28th is the first time I tried this that it did not work. I updated Leopard to 10.5.1 right around that time. I am running iTunes 7.5 (last updated 11/8/7). My iTunes library is on an external disk (has been for two years), but again, this problem just started occurring last week. I ran a verify and it came up clean.
    I could not find a single thread that described this problem (usually people just didn't know how to do it). Has anyone else experienced this?
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Hallo, I fear this will not help you, but I have the same problem: Can add artwork to music but not to videos. Maybe a problem with metadata:
    I import videos from a tv-recording-program (eyeTV). It works perfectly. When it finishes recording I export the film to iTunes 7.6. When it gets there it is stored under "TV Shows" and has a strange name (f.e.: "Mice hunt, slapstick comedy 1997").
    So I got to the Get Info and correct the name, classify it as comedy and set it to "Movies". Clicking OK it is correctly renamed, classified and displayed under "Movies".
    Then I go again to "Get Info" and want to add an artwork. I can import the artwork and it is displayed in the Cover-window of "Get info". But when I now click OK the new artwork isn´t displayed and all my information that I changed are restored: The Movie is again "Mice hunt, slapstick comedy 1997".
    I have the feeling that it has something to do with the changing of Metadata for videos and with iTunes version 7.6 (in 7.5 everything worked well). So I fear, I´ll have to wait for a bug update.

  • Can't add four specific albums to library off of external hard drive

    For some reason after my last sync quite a few songs on my iPod were no longer playing. It would show that they were on the iPod, but they would not play and would simply skip straight to the next song even if the iPod was paused when that song was on. I found that if I deleted the songs from my iTunes and then synced my iPod again after putting them back in the library it would solve the problem. I use an external hard drive to contain my iTunes library, and there is one folder on it that contains four music albums in their own folders, respectively. Songs from one of the albums in the previously mentioned folders were not playing, so I deleted that album. However, when I tried to put it back in my library it did not work. I've tried doing the 'Add folder to library...' and the 'add file to library...' as well as moving the folder onto my computer's hard drive, making a copy of the files, and moving the files around on the external hard drive. Any suggestions on why this is happening only to this one folder and these four albums, and if so, how to fix it? I am currently running iTunes 11.1.3.8 on Windows 8. Thank you.

    I'm not certain, but perhaps this user tip would help:
    Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows.
    Alternatively have you checked the drive for errors? Will the tracks play in Windows Media Player or MediaMonkey?

  • Can we add playcounts to albums/artists in newest itunes?

    In the old itunes we were able to choose what information showed on the bar lines and we still are if we right click the header bar in songs, but I was wondering if there was a way to add your playcount number to the albums/artists section. It's really hard to tell the plays at a glance (which I love) unless I'm on the songs list (which I hate being on) if there's a way to add them to the other pages I would love to know how! I really don't care about how long the songs are or anything but the name, artist, and playcount.
    Thanks you guys!

    Zandr6,
    Take a look at these resources to confirm how to add artwork:

  • HT1848 How can I add photos to the iPad while not deleting any currently on it? I have some photos from my brother's camera that I can't get again.  How could save them onto my iMac?

    I have uploaded photos from my brother's camera while on vacation to my iPad (1).  Now that I wish to add even more photos to the iPad,  iTunes say that it will replace all the photos once I sync again to add from an album on the iMac.
    WHOA.
    I'd like to upload the photos to the iMac! HOw can I do that?
    How can I add photos from albums on the iMac and not lose the ones I currently have stored onthe iPad.
    I cannot find this task addressed in any Help reference.
    I do not understand why I cannot make a simple file transfer back and forth.
    Many thanks!

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Help with add cover art by saving a file as preview.jpg

    I need help. Im new to mac and have all my movie files on my external drive. I found out how to make an alias folder and it works great in Front Row. But when I look at the movie in Front Row. All I see is a blue folder. I read another post stating that it can be done and this is what I got,
    Front Row in Leopard supports playing VIDEO_TS folders. You can also add cover art by saving a file as preview.jpg in the parent directory. The folder structure would be like the following.
    /Users/fred/Movies/The Day the Earth Stood Still/VIDEO_TS/
    /Users/fred/Movies/The Day the Earth Stood Still/preview.jpg
    But how do I save it this way? Thanks guys and girls!

    !!! But how do I save it this way? Thanks guys and girls!
    That other post looks like one I wrote. I am note sure what you are stuck on, except perhaps you are not using VIDEO_TS folders.
    The normal location for Front Row to look for movies is /Users/yourname/Movies in that movies folder you can put either movie files, or folders containing movie files, or aliases to folders containing movie files (which might via the alias be on another hard drive).
    If you are using video files e.g. an AVI, or MPG, or MOV then these normally should be added in to iTunes and Front Row can access them via the iTunes library. iTunes will then let you set a 'poster' frame for the movie.
    If the movie is a full VIDEO_TS (i.e. a copy of a DVD) then you cannot add these to iTunes and you cannot set a poster frame. Therefore Front Row which in Leopard now supports playing VIDEO_TS folders has provided another mechanism to provide a poster for each VIDEO_TS movie, which is the previously mentioned preview.jpg file.
    This literally is just a standard JPG file, I get most of mine from Amazon.com to match the DVD covers, but some people prefer using movie posters rather than DVD covers, and in that case you could try getting a suitable JPG from http://www.impawards.com/
    So, in /Users/yourname/Movies you would either create a folder for each movie (VIDEO_TS) like the following
    /Users/yourname/Movies/The Day the Earth Stood Still/
    /Users/yourname/Movies/Soylent Green/
    /Users/yourname/Movies/Forbidden Planet/
    or you would put an alias in Movies to a folder on another drive containing individual folders for each movie, I will use italics to represent an alias
    /Users/yourname/Movies/MovieDrive/
    MovieDrive would then contain folders for each movie
    /MovieDrive/The Day the Earth Stood Still/
    /MovieDrive/Soylent Green/
    /MovieDrive/Forbidden Planet/
    Each movie folder e.g. "The Day the Earth Stood Still" would contain firstly a JPG file called "preview.jpg" which would be your poster or DVD cover image, and also the VIDEO_TS folder which is a copy of the DVD.
    /MovieDrive/The Day the Earth Stood Still/preview.jpg
    /MovieDrive/The Day the Earth Stood Still/VIDEO_TS/
    /MovieDrive/Soylent Green/preview.jpg
    /MovieDrive/Soylent Green/VIDEO_TS/
    /MovieDrive/Forbidden Planet/preview.jpg
    /MovieDrive/Forbidden Planet/VIDEO_TS/
    Note: VIDEO_TS is the standard folder name used on DVDs and you have to keep that name so that Front Row know it is from a DVD and therefore how to play it, however in order to let Front Row list them under individual names you put the VIDEO_TS folder inside a folder which would be the Movie name, as shown above.
    In Front Row you would select "Movies" this lists the contents of
    /Users/yourname/Movies
    If you have put an alias in Movies it would list this as a folder which in Front Row you would select. Front Row would then list all the movie folders you have created and it would automatically see the preview.jpg files and VIDEO_TS folders in each movie folder you have created. Front Row would then know to display as a poster the preview.jpg when you highlight each movie folder.

  • Can't add any album artwork

    Hi. When I add any album to itunes, I can't add any artwork for the album after. I use EAC for the trasfer of the songs and when I import them to itunes, I copy the album cover from internet and paste it to the left corner square. Sometimes it works but as soon as I switch songs the artwork disappears. I tried to add it by going to get info and by selecting all songs and nothing works. Any help would be appreciated.

    What format are the tracks in? WAV won't take artwork. Anything else is likely to be a permissions problem - your account (or everyone) and SYSTEM need full access, files must not be read only..

  • When I want to add an album onto my iphone using itunes, I am successful in  putting one album on my phone but when I want to add another album it deletes the first album I put on my phone. How can I add more albums without some albums disappearing?

    I am having a problem with importing cds onto my iPhone. I have successfully added a playlist or album to my phone but when I want to add another album/artist, the first album that was on there has all of a sudden disappeared. Its like I can only have one album on my phone. This is my first time dealing with anything Apple because I have been using android phones. Any help would be appreciated as I don't fully understand iTunes.

    You can delete photos from individual albums but not from the camera roll.  If you try to delete a photo from camera roll it will be deleted from all other albums ("locations") that contain the photo.  This is because the actual photo is in the camera roll (the albums only contain links to the photo in camera roll, not the actual photo).
