CD cover art gone when exporting mp3

Hi. My girlfriend's home computer doesn't have an internet connection so I used my iMac to import several of her CDs to iTunes, placing all the songs on a special playlist. Then I went ahead and burned an mp3 CD. When I import the mp3 files to her iTunes there is no album artwork, the CD covers are simply gone. Is there a special way to export the files so that the CD covers are also exported? We are using iTunes 7.5. Thanks,
Cesar

No album cover art in Finder for mp3's? What a downgrade.

I have album cover art imbedded in ALL my mp3 files and they used to show up perfectly in Finder. Now, I see NOTHING. Cover art still shows in iTunes, but not Finder. Any fix for this?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Nikicampos
I have no such problem with iTunes with a library of more than 30000 songs.
I used to be a Weekend DJ with many many Albums.
Which view in iTunes does not give you an Artwork.
One thing to note is the list view, will give you an Artwork only if there is more song than the size of the Artwork icon.
here is an example
I left only two song in the Hush Album to show that list view, wont give you the Artwork in this case.
but as you can see, the info of the selected song show the artwork.
in the finder, without Icon Preview checked, you wont see the artwork.
With icon Preview Activated
I do have more question
Why do you convert the song ?
if the original song is an aiff, wav or a movie, the artwork cannot be inserted inside the file, so converting it will result into a song without artwork.
Sometime you will see a file marked MPEG-3 but it is a video. Open it into Quicktime, export it as a audio file then put it in iTunes, and if the file is mp3 or mp4, AAC, then you can insert the Artwork.
I probably dont fully understand your problem, give me more info but I am using iTunes since the very first version and I never hard a problem with artwork.
Could you give more detail about your problems?
Thank you

Video cover art gone in 12.1.0.71

I have iTunes running on a Windows 7 Virtual Box. Basically this box is my home's file server. All the videos and songs I've ever purchased live there. Everyone in the family can use Home Share to stream to their Macs and Apple TVs. This arrangement was perfect until 12.1.0171.
Now when I start up I get a warning that "Video Playback is not supported on this computer" -- It never really did play well on the PC, but that's not the point. The iPads and AppleTV are where the videos get played. The annoying thing is, there's no cover art in the video library any more. Not on the actual display, and not on the iPads, AppleTV's or other devices. All the other m4v metadata displays, just no cover art. It even still streams.
So is this a problem with my install? I gather there's an "iTunes for older video cards" would that make a difference? or is this just a bug, and I need to wait for the next patch release?

Hmm, that's not an error I've seen before. Was some of your media missing post install and did you reimport it?
See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash. Sadly your most recent previous library may be from the initial 12.0 upgrade last October.
Unfortunately there is no way to adjust the Date Added values or I could offer a way to export the data from an older library and reimport it into your current one.

Where has my cover art gone?

hi
I have spent an age updating my i tunes collection. by that i mean, renaming tracks that had "unknown album" for them, renaming tracks, and making sure that all my Tracks had the corect cover art loaded for it. it took a long time, but it looks good. Im using i tunes 8.0.0.35.
so i sync up my ipod touch, but i have noticed that there are at least 40 tracks on the ipod now with out the cover art. even though the cover art is included on my itunes collection.
What gives?
Thanks

When I go to "get info" on any of my itunes tracks the album artwork has disappeared, leaving only a blank space.
If the cover image still appears during playback, then it stands to reason that it is not missing. How are you looking at your artwork in the information window?
In the information window for a single track, the cover image is shown in the Summary and Artwork tabs, but you add or remove images in the latter. In the Multiple Item Information window the Artwork tag appears in the Info tab and it is presented as empty even thought the individual tracks do have an album cover image embedded. iTunes has operated in this fashion for some time now.

Cover art gone weird

Just noticed this today on my 3Gs.
Album art has gone screwy.
Displaying totally unrelated artwork from my library (like the cover of a Bach album while playing Toots & The Maytals...)
And showing part of two or three covers at once.
Anyone else found this?
I have all the latest iTunes & iPhone updates applied.
The fault isn't with teh artwork as it all displays fine on my iMac & AppleTV

That has happened to me in the past as well. The way I fixed it was to unsync all music and then resync all music.

In Pages 5.0.1 option to set password for editing document is gone when exporting as a pdf

In last version of Pages, I would make a proposal to a customer and then go to 'share' and then choose 'PDF' from the drop down. Next screen allowed me to choose the option of password protecting the document from being edited. This new version of Pages only seems to allow setting a password for opening the document. I do not need to password protect the document from being opened, just edited. Any help for this new problem? Apple always seems to remove features that are so helpful and useful when they 'upgrade' apps., very frustrating!

Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

Please help: Book Cover Changes Colour When Exported

Hi there,
I have designed a book jacket with a black background - all fairly minimalistic design elements for an economics book.
When I export the file to PDF or png - I am getting the inverse image in terms of colour and the text is an outline instead of its actual colour.
I am not sure what I have done or what I should do. Please help..l[

Echoing what Peter touched on.
Mac Preview does not address all the Adobe modules in Acrobat.
Acrobat is best for viewing.
You say it's a dust jacket, dust jackets are print, so have you used a print profile of CMYK that your printer has provided?
If not - then please get one. Also calibrate you monitor for colour.
If it's being printed, get a colour proof and talk with your printers on colour issues.

Where has the 'custom export' options gone when exporting slideshow iPhoto 9.5.1

I can't remember if my iPhoto has updated recently but all of a sudden i can no longer do a custom export and the only window that pops up is this one
when i used to get this one before
am I going mad, or has this just disappeared.

These options were removed by Apple. No one outside of Apple knows why.

Most cover art disappeared after syncing

I just put a few more CDs onto my iTunes, and after I synced my iPod, all the cover art except for the few CDs I just added disappeared from the iPod. It's all still in my iTunes though. All pictures for video are gone too, but my photos still work fine. (The iPod is a Classic 160 GB)
Thoughts? Ideas?

I was having a similar problem. For me it happens only with ripped tracks not available through iTunes. My solution was to uncheck “Automatically download missing album artwork” on the General Tab under Preferences.
Once I unchecked it, the disappearing covers stopped happening. Although it was an intermittent problem, it's now been 5 months since I changed it and I haven't lost any artwork.
This solution also has one obvious drawback. While iTunes purchased music is still downloaded with cover art, once you uncheck the "automatically download missing album artwork" box, music you rip and then import into iTunes won't have cover art. My take is I'd rather add cover art once when I import a song, then constantly have to re add random batches of artwork.
All I can figure is that when you have "get artwork" checked, iTunes goes through your library and replaces all artwork added by hand because it doesn't recognize either the file type or naming convention. For the most part we don't notice it, but when it hits a song it doesn't own the rights too, blam, gonzo.
Further proof that iTunes doesn't recognize or like the hand added cover art is that I had a song that iTunes automatically downloaded the wrong cover art for (van halen 1 instead of 2). I fixed it with the right cover from Amazon but I noticed it changed back to the wrong cover about a week later.
I have a couple of blog entries about this problem that go into further detail, check them out here:

Deleting Cover Art

I have gone out to All Music Guide to get my cover art.
I have dragged and dropped cover art into most of my albums.
Oftentimes, there is no cover art found when I search via iTunes.
Now this is an odd problem, sometimes the Delete cover art choice is offered, but most of the time it is not when I right click on the cover art in iTunes.
The one I had previously selected remains, and in a couple of cases I did manage to delete it, but then it reappears.
Is there any way to delete it so I can replace it with another cover art short of deleting the whole album and re-import it from the CD?
Thanks !

Can you explain turning off the RO bit as I'm not familiar with it.
Where would I find it in Explorer?
Just proves the point... you learn something new every day.
Thanks.

Missing cover art from iTunes on iPhone

Some of the albums on my iPhone (bought via iTunes) are missing their cover art. On my iMac all the albums in iTunes have their cover art. When I sync the iPhone on my iMac, the cover art doesn't update on the iPhone! The iPhone iTunes cover art used to be there, some of them were even bought from iTunes while on the iPhone.
Can anyone please please let me know how I can update all the cover art for albums on my iPhone?

Transfer of ebooks from library to NookColor missing cover art?

I have successfully transfered my ebooks from my local library
to my NookColor using ADE. However, there is no cover art displayed for each book on my personal libraryshelf? Oddly enough, when I open the book to read the cover art shows when I begin to read. Isn't there suppose to be a cover art thumbnail of the book on the shelf or is that only for books directly downloaded from B&N. Any feedback/suggestions appreciated.

Cover art for songs will not "save" in iTunes 7

The songs on my PC have corrected tags, lyrics and an associated picture (cover art). When I import all the songs into iTunes, many do not indicate that they have any cover art. The lyrics and the tag are ok. I used the Ctrl+i to manually add the cover art and it seems OK. When I exit the "Get Info" box, and go back into the same song, the cover art is missing, again. I also did the drag-and-drop method into the artwork viewer at the lower left. It seems to work OK too until I change songs, then it goes MIA. I have compared the jpg pixel sizes and file sizes to some that work but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Help!

See this thread for a (brief) discussion of the issue you're probably seeing. iTunes does not properly handle ID3v2 tags which are larger than 127 bytes (which includes pretty much any image). The reason it works when you add the album art in iTunes is because it saves the information in your iTunes Library file rather than in the ID3 tags.

I'm having cover art issues...

I love audiobooks, but I'm having issues with cover art showing up. When in "audiobooks" view in iTunes all of my cover art shows up, but when I switch to "authors" view some authors have cover art next to their names while others doesn't. I suppose I'm a little OCD but I really like having cover art next to the author's names.
I noticed this happened after I did a bit of editing so it may be my fault. Several of my audiobooks are series. For example, Christopher Paolini wrote the Inheritance Cycle which consists of Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr & Inheritance. I recently combined the files into one "album" while letting the track names differentiate between the individual books.
1 Eragon (Part 1).m4b
1 Eragon (Part 2).m4b
2 Eldest (Part 1).m4b
2 Eldest (Part 2).m4b
3 Brisngr (Part 1).m4b
3 Brisinger (Part 2).m4b
4 Inheritance (Part 1).m4b
4 Inheritance (Part 2).m4b
Each book has it's own cover art and when I send the whole series to my iPhone they show up as one audiobook "The Interitance Cycle" with the 8 files listed above being listed as tracks. When clicking on the individual files to play them, they display the cover art for the book they represent. Seemed like an easy way to consolidate my files until the cover art next to author names started disappearing in iTunes. Any help would be appreciated.

Well I'm here to own up. My dad was over today and he has an iPad 2 with iOS 7.1.1 and mine ran 6.1.2. Over the table both on my wifi I tried to call him on facetime and he tried to call me, in both cases it failed due to lost connection as previously discussed. He said they had used it to call my brother in england yesterday with no issue.
I bit the bullet and decided with extreme reluctance to do the upgrade. I did a full backup whilst downloading the update on my windows pc and after the sync I applied the update. Luckily for apple's sake the facetime connection now works both ways but I'm still left with this hideously atrocious UI color scheme. I can however report that i can see no noticable reduction in performance so far. As per suggested on some sites I disabled automatic downloads & updates and tweaked the accessibility settings to "reduce motion" and "increase contrast" including enabling button shapes and reducing white point. Everything seems to work fine and Thankfully I don'rt feel like I have a hobbled device. Clearly something between 7.0 and 7.1.1 has brought iPad 2 back up to speed so to speak.
Oh and I still hate you Apple, cheers.

Album with mixed artists is being split by iTunes and loses cover art?

It's got different artists for each track, and the album is split up and the cover art goes when put onto iTunes. How to fix?

Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.
