I have the same problem but your advice did not work for me. Pehaps I do not understand your directions. What do you mean by "go to where you saved the album artwork"? I never had any problem adding new artwork until I installed iTunes version 11.1.3 (8). Now I can't add new artwork anymore. Is there a special file in this version of iTunes where I should be saving the artwork I want to add to make it work? Before I could save it anywhere.
If you downloaded the artwork from the Internet. It'll be in your downloads folder. Open the folder, and "drag" the image from the folder to the Artwork box in the Info pane as shown:
When you see the "+" you know it's ready to drop, and it will add the artwork to ALL selected tracks as soon as you click "OK".

Cant get album artwork

Hi There,
I am using itunes 6.0.4.2 with my ipod Nano and I cant seem to get any Album artwork onto Itunes from anywhere. Please help me find them or tell me where to get it so I can add them to my itunes. I see the space on the bottom of Itunes saying " drag album artwork here" but dont know where to drag it from. When I converted all my wav files to MP3 to switch from Media player to Itunes I lost all the artwork.
Thanks,
Greg

Greg,
You can get album artwork by saving the images from Amazon to your desktop and dragging them to iTunes. You can also find third party utilities for adding artwork.

well, the video is probably in a format that iTunes doesn't recognize. Convert it using an application like Handbrake.

I have a work ipad but they have removed safari and locked it down so i cant put apps from my itunes account onto it. Any ideas on what i can do

Besides the ethical and professional issues involved, the iPad appears to be linked to a different iTunes account than your personal one. Applications are tied to the account, not the device - so if you were able to use your personal account to install the apps in question, you'd be wiping out all the ones your employer put on.
If you feel these apps are necessary for your work, then talk to your supervisor/tech department about them purchasing additional copies for use on the iPad.

How can i transfer album artwork to itunes

can someome help me i have got some album artwork but cant seem to be able to put it on to itunes?

There are various methods of adding artwork to your songs and albums.
If you have an iTunes store account, you can use the "get album artwork" option in iTunes. You don't actually need to purchase anything from the iTunes store, just to have or create an account. Provided that the album or song for which you are looking to add artwork is available for sale in the store, iTunes will find it and add it to your library.
If you go to preferences/general in iTunes and check the box marked "automatically download missing album artwork", it will automatically add the artwork when you import a CD into iTunes.
You must have the album or song tagged in your iTunes library correctly or it may not be found. For instance, even a missing "The" before the artists name can throw up anomalies. iTunes will check each song in your iTunes library and attempt to match it up with a song in the iTunes Store. If the data matches, iTunes will download the album artwork from the iTunes Store and add it to the song in your iTunes library.
If you don't have an account or don't want to create one, here are a couple of other methods.
Highlight a song or album in iTunes, then right click on it and select the "get album artwork" option.  Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images.   Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image".   When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes.   Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste.  
In the unlikely event that Google can’t find an image, you can also get artwork from Amazon.
If you’re happy using images from Amazon, and don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a free program to do it for you.
And for Macs, there's Album Art Widget.
You can set this to find art from Amazon, Google and elsewhere, automatically add artwork to songs, rate songs, and a bunch of other stuff.
One of the coolest widgets around.

How do I update Album artwork onto my ipod.....

How do I update Album artwork onto my ipod after i have found the artwork and added it to my itunes?
i tried to just plug in my ipod and sync. it but that didnt work.

*Why is artwork not showing on my iPod when it's there in iTunes?*
iTunes will display a cover in many of it's views provided at least one track from the album has embedded artwork. The iPod appears to load only the artwork from track one to create the cover flow and album views which means that it can sometimes fail to display art for albums even when you can see the art in iTunes. Further, when tracks are played on the iPod, artwork is displayed if and only if it exists in the currently playing track, so track one may show art while track two does not.
*How to find tracks without artwork*
To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=trackswithoutartwork for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, find the album in the main music folder, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.
*Rebuild artwork cache*
Sometimes the artwork cache becomes corrupt and fails to show correct artwork, even when this is properly set up in iTunes. To rebuild the artwork cache, connect your iPod to iTunes. Locate the iPod in the Sources pane on the left-hand side, then select the Music tab. Remove the tick from *Display album artwork on your iPod*, sync the iPod, reselect the option & sync again.

Cant sync albums in my itunes

I have imported a CD into my itunes, but itunes cant find album artwork and it wont sync the album to my iphone. Help!!

What are you doing to sync it? And what error are you getting?
The album artwork has nothing to do with the iPhone; if no one has uploaded artwork of course iTunes can't find it. You can add it yourself by scanning the album cover, then pasting the scan into the Artwork box in iTunes.

Can't download album artwork in iTunes

Hi All,
I used to be able to download album artwork but it doesn't work anymore. When I try, I get an error message that says "Artwork for “XXXXX” could not be found. An unknown error occurred (-609)." where XXXXX is the name of the album. I tried installing iTunes on a new computer (on the same network) and it works just fine on that computer. I'd just switch computers but I have many albums, podcasts, etc. on the computer that isn't working so switching systems isn't a viable option. Do any of you wizards have any ideas what might be causing the problem and how to fix it. My experiment suggests to me that it isn't a problem with my network router or internet connection.
Oh, I'm running the latest version of iTunes on Windows XP Home but it wasn't working before I upgraded to the latest version of iTunes.
Thanks in advance to all,
Medic101

Do the songs have the album art in your iTunes library?
If you answer is yes, I had the same problem, fixed it manually by copying the album art from the song in iTunes library and then choosing the Get Info for that song, and then pasting the album art into the Artwork tab.
This was the only way I found to get album artwork onto my iPod. If anyone else has a suggestion, I am listening.

I cannot delete embedded album artwork in iTunes 12

I cannot delete embedded album artwork in iTunes 12. I download music from a service that sometimes has album artwork embedded, and I usually just delete it. Then I add the artwork from iTunes with the "get album artwork" command. But it only works if you can delete the embedded artwork first...and in iTunes 12, so far, I cannot. So I am stuck with the artwork that came with the files...and it's not always good. (Sometimes, it's even silly ads!)
In iTunes 11 and prior versions, I would highlight the songs in the album, right-click then choose "get info," choose the "details" tab, and put a checkmark next to the empty album art box for all songs. That would delete the embedded album artwork. You could also paste an image into the little box and it would apply to all the songs that had no artwork, to be sure they were all the same. Alternatively, I could also highlight the songs in the album, right-click then choose "get info," choose the "artwork" tab, and delete, cut or paste artwork right into the larger pane.
Without the ability to delete embedded artwork, I cannot maintain my library the way I'd like to. I even prefer the full album artwork to a "single" artwork, and so I even change the free iTunes downloads singles to the main album artwork.
Please help. Does anyone know how to delete album artwork in iTunes 12? I have a huge library and I want to continue to maintain it with the correct album artwork.

The new iTunes 12 Get Info dialog lacks right-click context menus (at least for now) but it still accepts most standard keyboard shortcuts and drag & drop actions.
Delete Artwork
On the artwork tab of Get Into, tap the image in question, use Backspace or Ctrl+X. Delete doesn't work.
Or, tap the image at the top left of Get Info, this time use Backspace or Delete, it is Ctrl+X that doesn't work.
Add Artwork
Select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the centre of the Artwork tab, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Or, select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the small image area at the top left, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Or, you can drag & drop to, or sometimes from, the same locations.
You can also copy artwork from the Get Info dialog to Windows Explorer with the keyboard shortcuts.
If the source image is on a web page right-click and use Copy Image rather than copy. (With Chrome I get a one pixel wraparound so tend to go for a temporary local copy anyway - not sure whose bug this is, but it isn't new.)
If you have multiple images embedded drag the one you want to be the primary artwork to the leftmost position.
Replace/Remove All Artwork
The top left image box can be used to add or delete art from multiple tracks. In either case all existing artwork in all tracks is replaced/removed.
Old Style Get Info Dialog (as given above)
Select some items, right-click, hold down shift, then click Get Info from the context menu. (Use alt/option on a Mac)

You can only join tracks when importing from a CD and likewise, the Options button is also only visible when importing from CD.
When the CD is in the drive and showing in iTunes, you will see Options, CD Info and Import CD choices. If you select Options, the Join CD Tracks option only appears when you have two or more adjacent tracks selected. See the screenshots below:

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 do i enlarge album artwork in iTunes 11

How do I enlarge album artwork in iTunes 11?

gimmetime wrote:
No, I'm asking about the thumbnails that show the entire library. Before upgrading to 11 I was able to enlarge the artwork and also change the background color from white to black.
OK, you are referring to the thumbnails when displaying your library in "Albums" view. TBOMK, they cannot be adjusted. (Or at least in iTunes 11.2.2 on Windows, there does not seem to be a way, which does seem a bit strange.)
