Can't see album artwork in finder

I am on a MacBook Pro and using OS X Yosemite. Apparently this is a common problem that has plagued many a Mac user but the fact is, lately my finder has been showing previews for everything.....except music files. All I get is that generic music note file. Has anyone else found any kind of a solution to this?
Thanks either way.

You're welcome. 
Despite all those files and sub folders in the Album Artwork folder, mine is less than 100mb - not exactly a huge amount unless you are really desperate for HD space!
My iTunes music folder in comparison is about 100x larger.

  • Can't see album artwork

    Hi
    I have imported about 20 CDs into iTunes but I cannot get the album artwork to show. If I right-click the album in cover flow there's even an option that says "clear downloaded artwork" but I can't see the artwork! Please help........

    Unless you purchase the CDs from ITunes store there won't be any artwork. In iTunes go to Advanced, then "Get Artwork" (make sure you are connected to the internet) and it will go off to iTunes Store and retrieve the artwork. If iTunes Store does not have the artwork, Google the Album name and artist and Amazon should come up. Click on "Images" and there should be some album covers. Drag a cover to the your desktop and open iTunes and drag the cover to the "place artwork here" in the bottom left hand corner of iTunes. If it is a very rare cd, scan the cover and drag it into iTunes.

  • How can I see playlist artwork?

    How can I see playlist artwork? I know cover flow is gone (stupid decision) but can I see the small album covers at the side like you used to be able to?

    At first I couldn't find what icon you were talking about. Then I clicked on a different playlist, and it appeared! This icon does not appear when you choose a "genius" created playlist. It only appears on playlists that I have manually created.
    Stupid, as far as I'm concerned.
    Now I see that I can't have more than one playlist opened...which I often do...

  • 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.

  • I can't see .NEF files in finder from mi NIkon D7100. Helllp !!!!!

    I can't see .NEF files in finder from mi NIkon D7100. Helllp !!!!!
    I can open NEF files in Camera Raw but Im not seeing tumbs in finder !
    Also I cant see them in preview too.

    Well, I don't know what the problem actually is in the first place, it should work as is, I think something is messed up with the present driver and replacing it would perhaps get around that problem.
    It seems like I'd be adding one more layer of complexity to the Vista machine...
    Not sure how the Vista machine is involved in this, since these are drivers for the Mac.
    Though to involve the Vista Machine, One option not mentioned yet is MacDrive for you PCs... allows them to Read/Write HFS+...

  • 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.

  • Can anyone explain why my Dell laptop and my iphone can "see" a server in Luton when using a wireless broadband (I get 20 Mbps download speed) but my ipad can not see this server and finds one in Milton Keynes which gives me 0.37 download speed.

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

  • I can't get album artwork to show on my iPhone. It downloads when I sync but no show.

    I can't get album artwork to show on my iPhone. It downloads when I sync but no show. Am I missing something in setup. My other iPhone shows the artwork. I might be missing something but they appear to be set up the same. The wife's works, mine does not.

    Those tags are not shown in the Finder.

    There is no one from Apple here; we are fellow iPad user.
    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

  • Why can I not see album artwork on my iphone but I can on itunes

    I have downloaded album artwork onto itunes, however some of it is not downloading onto my iphone. How can I get the album artwork onto my phone?

    On the right hand side of the itunes store - there is a link under "quick links" to "purchases" where I can find all the books and music I have purchased through itunes.  That way if I have loaded something from itunes using my phone - I can then go and download it onto my PC later (or that is how I use it).
    BUT - while music, movies, TV shows, Apps & Books are available for download - there is no audiobooks option.  So, I have these purchases of audiobooks through itunes, but I cannot find them in my purchases history.  I have tried to manually sync these audiobook purchases from my phone to my PC, but it would not let me.  And the last time I tried to sync my audiobook library between my phone and my PC - (loading these new purchases from phone to PC) it wiped my phone purchases and I had to go back to apple with all the purchase receipts to get them back.
    I would like to be able to load audiobooks purhcased on my itunes account onto my home and work PC from the itunes purchased database from my account (or from my phone if someone can recommend a safe way to move the file).
    Thanks for asking.

  • Why, when on the store I can see album artwork (for an album offered) I cannot get that album artwork when I have the same CD in my collection?

    I have several albums that I own the actual CD, some of those CD's are offered on the store (example: America's Greatest Hits) After downloading those CD and asking to get album artwork even though the artwork is available online the store says that artwork is unavailable. Also it would be more than helpful to allow artwork from some online sites to be downloaded like it was about 2 years ago. Since then it is very difficult to drag and pop in missing artwork.
