Can't create album artwork. What gives?

Hey everyone. The .jpg and the .tiff I try to drag into album artwork, appears as if it will work, because a + symbol appears on my cursor as i attempt to drag it in. But nothing happens.
What can I do to rectify this?
Thanks all.

If they are saved in your iPhoto:
All you have to do is select the photo, then copy.
Under artwork in iTunes you paste the image there.

  • Can I disable album artwork on my OS 7 Ipod touch 5th generation from showing up in the list?

    Can I disable album artwork on my OS 7 Ipod touch 5th generation from showing up in the list of song/playlist, etc?
    I liked how easy it was to find songs without going thru so much artwork. I know I can do it on itunes, but can I do it on the ipod itself?

    Good to hear you found the solution.

  • Can't add album artwork in iTunes 10.5.3.3

    I just installed iTunes 10.5.3.3 and now I can't add album artwork.  The Artwork tab is missing from Get Info.  Any ideas?

    I have the exact problem with this same iTunes version. However, I just did an experiment. It seems to be primarily limited to songs I've placed via FLAC files, which were "converted" using Fluke. Hmmm... Anyone have a fix for this?

  • After 7.2 can't get album artwork

    Since upgrading to iTunes 7.2, I can't fetch album artwork for cds I've ripped but are available from the iTunes Store. Anyone else having this problem?

    Im having this problem as well. And to further clarify, itunes is not doanloading all the cover art for tracks ive purchased through itunes. SOme albums has artwork, some do not. For example:
    I recently purchased the whole Police catalog through itunes, I do not have artwork for Live!, Syncronicity, Zenyatta Mondatta, or Ghost in the Machine. previous to 7.2, I did, but since rebuilding my itunes libray this artwork will nto download, no matter if I try it manually, or have itunes sett to automatically download it.
    Ive noticed as the days go by, itunes will randomly add a piece of artwork here and there for albums that did not previouosly have artwork...b ut its very random, some days I notice an album now has artwork, then a few days goes by and nothing.

  • ITunes 7- Can't add album artwork

    Lotta dsicussion about this topic, but I haven't seen my particular problem come up. When I try to manually add album artwork nothing happens. I've seen other people say they couldn't get it to work when they just dragged the artwork, but I can't get it to work when I crt+click and get info either. When I get info and paste the artwork into the box, the image shows up, but when I click okay, nothin happens. I make sure the checkbox beside the artwork is checked before I hit Okay.
    Apple's automatic get album artwork worked pretty well, but only found about 80% of my albums. Pretty good considering the weird crap I listen to, but I'm pretty anal, and if 80% is gonna have artwork I want the rest to also.
    Would the problem be that my library is on an external HD?
    Is the problem that my computer (G3 ibook, 640MB SDRAM, OSX 10.4.7) is getting on in years? I can't think of any other ways to tell it to get the artwork, any help would be much appreciated!!

    For files that won't let you change their artwork, there are two primary things you can check.
    Firstly, make sure that the file is writable. If it is on a volume where permissions are managed, make sure you can write to both the file and the folder it is contained in. Select the file in iTunes, command-R, then use Get Info in the Finder to set the file/folder write access if necessary.
    Next make sure the Creator and Type of the file isn't set to an iTunes unfriendly type. I know this was an issue in previous versions of iTunes. For example, for an mp3 file Creator=hook Type=MPG3. I know this sounds like stupid advice, setting resource fork information when Apple is telling us to stay away from using resource forks in OS X. iTunes apparently hasn't heard the news.
    Perhaps adding album artwork to a file on an external volume is acting like the funny behavior of adding artwork to files on iPods. You apparently can't do it directly, but instead have to stage the artwork adding action on the volume which contains your iTunes Music folder, place the files in a temporary LIBRARY based playlist in iTunes, then drag copy the files from this playlist into the target iPod DEVICES playlist.
    It is no longer clear to me what actions constitute an embed artwork action (place associated artwork inside the ID3 tag area of the file itself) versus an attach artwork action (place associated artwork in a separate artwork folder). This is extremely confusing stuff for an application that begins with a lower case i.

  • Can't add Album artwork to certain files.

    Hi, I've come across an anomaly in iTunes. There are certain audio files that cannot, for any reason update album artwork. I update album art work but selecting the file in iTunes then "get info" -> "add album artwork". But on certain files these tabs, as well as lyrics, are greyed out. The audio files are ACC 128bits. The only thing I found in common with the files that won't get album art work or lyrics is that they were encoded with iTunes 4.7. The only fix I can see is reconverting them in another version of iTunes, but this seems like a really dumb fix. Mostly I'm just wondering if there are any other people that have this problem and what fix you came up with, or what would cause a specific version of iTunes to not allow artwork.

    Instead of opening the album under "Get Info" and going into the Artwork tab, try clicking on the square box with a triangle in it located on the bottom left side of the iTunes window. This will display the ablum artwork inside the side bar. Click on the top of the album artwork box where it says "Now Playing" and it will change into "Selected Item". Select a song you're trying to get the album artwork for and see what it says in the box. If it says "Album Artwork Not Modifiable" then you might have a problem with the kind of file the music is. Granted, this shouldn't be any different than going into "Get Info" and trying it there, but at least this way you can tell for sure what the issue is. If the box says "Drag Album Artwork Here" then go ahead and drag the picture there and it should work. Sometimes checking the album artwork box helps you more understand what the issue is. Hope this helps!

  • Can't Drag Album Artwork into iTunes

    For some reason I can no longer drag album artwork into iTunes. If I click on a song or on a group of songs and there is no artwork available, I can no longer drag album art to the "Drag Album Artwork Here" in the bottom left corner. Same goes for when I right click and say "Get Info". It will show a little green plus sign as I drag the picture over the drop area but nothing happens.
    I'm running 10.4 and have made sure that I have read and write privledges to all of the specified folders.
    Anyone have any other ideas?

    Where are you dragging the images from? It might just be that particular site, if you're using the same location time and time again. I use Amazon music when looking for album art for iTunes and generally have good luck with it.
    Are you trying to drag artwork for songs that already have artwork associated with them? Sometimes you might want to clear the downloaded artwork for those tracks and then drag in the new image. I've run into this in cases where I've downloaded a single track from iTunes but then used something else to complete the album.
    Beyond those suggestions, you might want to try re-creating your iTunes Library, per the steps in this document. Note that some data may be lost, such as play counts and date added.

  • How can I get album artwork to automatically appear with each new episode?

    I have a podcast subscription through the iTunes store and I dragged a piece of artwork into the little box that says "Drag Album Artwork Here" since when I tried to right-click and "Download Album Artwork" nothing happened. How do I get that piece of album artwork to automatically appear with each new episode of the podcast that gets downloaded instead of having to click and drag the image from my desktop every time a new episode gets downloaded?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for your reply. It seems like what I'm wanting to do is rather impossible, although I hope the iTunes developers can include such a feature in a later release of the software.

  • Can't Get Album Artwork

    iTunes isn't letting me get any album artwork and is showing up with a message saying, "*Error -609*."
    What do I do, and how do I get artwork (as this is a huge pet-peeve of mine)?

    Im absolutly fed up with iTunes. Whats more insulting is that after going through the whole setting up of an account, and not getting any artwork at all, I cant close or cancel my account. If itunes cant do a simple thing like artwork, how can i trust that some glitch wont charge my credit card for stuff i never bought?

  • Can't add album artwork in newest version.

    I right-click on the song name, go to info and the artwork tab is grayed out. I can't access it. I also can't drag artwork in. What should I do? iTunes can't find the artwork itself because this is my album and it's not on a label, and therefore not in the store. What can I do??

    Hi there,
    I have the same issue. So basically when I Rip a DVD into the library I am unable to update the artwork. If I purchase a movie or TV show via iTunes, the artwork is there...Its just updating for me that doesnt work. updating other information like title or sorting or Category - these all work fine.
    I wanted to ask something - are all of you using a NAS for your itunes library or are some of your experiencing this with your library on the MAC or via USB? I had loads of errors with my Itunes library being on a NAS type device and the only way I fixed all my previous errors was by opening iTunes in 32bit mode - however this is now not possible.
    My next test is to see if I use my Windows machine to import the move, change the artwork, then try copy that to the MAC and reimport...Mission but would be good to see if this would work.
    Its very annoying and it seems we all have issues but no official acknoledgement from Apple?
