Cant get album art after converting from wma

After convertong old wma files into itunes format, clicking on get album art initiates the process and it seems to go through each album retrieving art, yet picture never appears. Any ideas?

OK in windows media player, it will pull the album art up, but it doesn't attach the art to the song, instead it hides the art in the system and attaches a series of numbers to be ID. In iTUnes tho the art is attached to the songs tags.
Now there may be some program you can find on the net that will automaticly do this for you, I have no idea but heres how to do it manually.
Now the art work will reside where the song is. Since most music is put in the "My MUsic" folder i'll focus there, but if you have songs in another folder there artwork will be in that folder with them. Open My Music folder and goto tools>folder options>view tab Now check "Show Hidden Files and Folder" then UNCHECK "Hide Protected Operating System Files" You should now see all the album art listed.

  • Cant Get Album Art..

    So I go out and get a 15 iTunes card for my account so that I can get Album Art. And this is what I do:
    Select all songs, right click and get info, check artwork, press ok. When thats done and goes through, select them all again and go to Advanced > Get Album Artwork then I click Yes or OK. Then it doesnt do anything? What am I doing wrong? Thank you

    Ok so I didnt know that you had to add the music to your LIBRARY in order for it to get artwork. Well I did that its all gravy, but when it says getting album artwork x out of 368, does that mean it found 368 albums of artwork or just found it for 368 songs? Thanks
    Also one more thing, since I have to have any song go through my library in order to get album artwork, is there anyway to disable iTunes automatically adding songs to my library once their downloaded to my PC?

  • No Album Art after trasnfer from WMP11??

    Recently I tried to transfer music from WMP11 to my N82 thru USB cable connection set at Music Player profile. However to much of my dismay, the album arts that was stored in my music files in Windows Media Player is not displayed after it was transferred to my N82.
    What could be wrong and how do I remedy it?
    Thanks!
    PS: thanks Nokia for enabling music tag editting on-the-go!

    Hi El,
    thanks for your input. I realise the problem with WMP11 way of handling album art which is the cause of my problem here. I am in the midst of deleting the album art of my songs and paste them back as Cover (front) which is damn tedious given that the tag editor in WMP11 is not user friendly at all.
    I do manage my album art well using iTunes but sadly, the album arts are not displayed preperly on WMP11. Any suggestions for a quick and fast way to update my album art in WMP?
    Next, I would like to feedback on the Nokia Music Manager (NMM). This is nice that Nokia has created this software for music transfer. back in the days N series phones are not supported by WMP, it is the main tool for music transfer for my device. However, it performance as a music manager disappoints me.
    Firstly, the tag details of the songs are not displayed fully after scanning my library of 3k plus songs. Also, the album art function is not functioning at all. There is no wat to drag and drop the album art on the NMM. Anyone experience the same problem as me? Any syggestions??

  • Getting album art from iTunes Store...

    I have an extensive music library on an external HD, but most songs are/were in 'wma' format. On loading iTunes, it spent 36 hours converting these to AAC (m4a) format, but it didn't bring the album art over. Now I have a perfect music collection, doubled in size, which I can view in Windows Media Player (with all the album art) or in iTunes (without any album art).
    Unfortunately, we who live in South Africa are not allowed to download album art from the iTunes Store, so I cannot restore the artwork...and every time I try to access the Store from inside iTunes, it bombs out - but I can access the iTunes site on any normal web browser (usually Mozilla).
    So what now???

    Sorry, but as you've discovered, you cannot get album art from the iTunes Store without an account, and being a South African resident, there's no way for you to open an account. There are, however, many other ways of getting album art. Just search the web for something like "iTunes album art" and you should find a number of utilities, suggestions for sources and instructions on how to proceed.
    Regards.

  • ITunes 10.0.7.21 shows a white box instead of artwork for most of my albums.  Many of these are albums I purchased on itunes.  Also when I hit get album art it deleted the artwork it already had form many albums and says it cant find it.

    OS is Windows 7
    I updated iTunes the other day and I decided to run "get album art" and instead of finding artwork, it made some of the artwork I already had show up as white squares, or disapear entirely.  The ones that are white squares show up under the get info, but not in itunes.  I did click in view for show al artwork, no luck.  Many of these albums I bought from iTunes.  The ones that the artwork was deleted some albums I can buy on iTunes, but already owned, and iTunes found the artwork before, but now cannot.  Some are albums that I spent many hours finding and adding the artwork myself.  I am very frustrated.  I cannot find the time to manually install artwork for thousands of songs.
    My work computer is Windows 8, so I really don't want to hear windows vs OSX argument.  My company won't switch to mac because you like it better, so I just need a solution to my issue.  iTunes it has always worked better for me on my work PC than my macBook, I dont know why, but I don't take two laptops with me when I travel so I have my iTunes library on the PC that has to come with me.  This is the first time an update has screwed things up for me.

    Well my first guess was wrong. The line that failed is the one that writes out the image to disk. I've not revisited the code for that script for ages, but it seems I did add in an extra test for missing files a little while later, then forgot to upload the change. I can reproduce the error message if I deliberately rename a file to confuse iTunes so that seems the most likely reason for your problem with the script. I've uploaded a new build of CreateFolderArt which should work better.
    See FindTracks for a tool to repair broken links. You should probably get that issue fixed first.

  • Hi, Does anyone know how to get all album art to import from Itunes.

    My Itunes Library/Media states that all album art is present and accounted for but when I sync with Itunes half of my album art on the Ipad is blank.

    Hi WIll_Maveric
    To get album art to an album on iTunes:
    Go to iTunes
    Right Click on the album you want to get the art for
    Click album artwork
    If the songs/album can be found on the iTunes database it will add automatically
    If the songs/album cannot be found on the iTunes database it will not add automatically, so I would suggest you go to the internet find the image.
    Copy it and then go into iTunes
    Right click on the album/song
    Click on Get Info
    Click on Artwork
    Paste the image into the box (Command v) or (Control v)P
    Then click OK
    Go to your device and sync it again
    You will have the artwork there.
    Many Thanks for your question and allowing me to help you today.

  • Can't get Album Art for CDs

    I ripped a bunch of CDs to Windows Media Player and it got the album art for all of them. Then later I installed iTunes and it automatically converted the songs over to it from WMP, but iTunes did not get the album art and it says that it is not available when I click on "Get Album Art." What do I do?

    Not a complete answer, but will get you most of the art work you need.
    Find the album on the Internet. I usually try Amazon.com, puretracks.com, or any site that will let you right click and save the art work shown. Use the "Save As" and save it as a "jpg" file. Make sure you put it in a location, and give it a name you can find.
    Open iTunes, find the album and right click on it. Click on "Get Info", go to the "Artwork" tab, and click on "Add". Brows to the location where you saved the artwork and add it.
    If you have more that one song in the same album you can add the same artwork to each song by right clicking on the artwork just imported and selecting copy. Go to the next song's artwork and right click and select past.
    Not the best, but after I find the album I can add the artwork to all the songs in an album in less that two minutes.
    It is taking a little work, but I am slowly overcoming the stupidity of the Apple programmers who wrote iTunes. It is a fairly good program, but it could be much better if Apple would make it easier for users to submit suggestions, and if they incorporated the popular suggestions. Unfortunately Apple has always had an arrogant attitude and they are not likely to change any time soon.

  • Cant Find Album Art?!!

    then restarted as per instructions,
    went to Apple to download itunes,

    Visit the iTunes download page. Click Download Now to download the iTunes installer. When prompted, click Save (instead of Run).
    did not get a save instead of run prompt
    Right click on iTunesSetup or iTunes64Setup (the installer you downloaded in step 3).
    If you have Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: Choose "Run as administrator."
    i can only click run as administrator from right clicking the shortcut on my desktop screen
    If iTunes fails to install or repair, it might be necessary to remove components left from a previous installation of iTunes and then reinstall.

  • Get Album Art rant.

    I am importing my CDs to Itunes on my new computer. I have it set so it always gets album art. Problem is sometimes it asks what CD version it is, and the options it shows me are the EXCACT same description. If I pick the wrong one, Itunes says it can't find the art or it gives me the totally wrong artwork.
    Is there anyway to fix this? Why does'nt someone at Apple check this stuff.

    When you are being asked why CD version it is it is asking so that it can match the CD to the metadata in the CDDB, which is a database of track listings. For iTunes to be able to download album art the details for the songs must match what is in the iTunes Store. If the album or artist is not an exact match it will not find the album art.
    One thing you can do is to check for the album in the iTunes Store. If you can find it check to make sure the details are the same on the songs in your library. If not you will have to update the details to match before you can manually select Get Album Art from the pop-up menu when you right-click on the song(s).

  • Get Album Art: What Will Happen?

    I have a very large iTunes music collection almost all of which album art.
    I've always been afraid to use the "Get Album Art" function of iTunes because I assumed it would replace all my existing album art. Two questions:
    1) Is this true?
    2) Is there a way to make it get album art for only a single album rather than for the whole library?

    It won't replace the artwork if you already have something there. If you ctrl-click on a song you have an option to get album artwork for that one song. or from the same menu you can go to 'Get Info' and there is an artwork that you can manually place the images into. hope that helps

  • Get album art criteria for download

    Hi,
    When I say "Get Album Art" in iTunes, for some albums it doesn't do anything. I check the iTunes store and they have the album but it won't download the artwork. I tried matching the album name to the exact same name but that doesn't solve the problem. I can't see anything else that is listed differently in my details from the iTunes version...
    I really want that high quality art from iTunes.
    Anyone know what iTunes searches for to get the artwork?
    Thanks in advance.
    Pete

    In my experience, the album, artist and song names must exactly match the ones of the iTunes Store.
    The song names are less important when you're trying to get artwork for an entire album.
    Sometimes I notice some songs in my library that don't have the exact name of the one in the Store, but the artwork does show up in iTunes.
    Hope this helps.
