COVER ART DOESN'T SHOW IN COVER FLOW

Just got the new ipod classic, 80gb.
Some of the cover art I synced doesn't show in cover flow. Instead of the blank musical note cover, it's just black, meaning it has content, but it just won't show.
But all the cover arts show perfectly in my itunes.
Help please.
Thanks.

I've had this problem also. This problem usually happens when I update new artwork to the iPod. SOLUTION: Try deleting the entire album from the iPod, then re-transfer the whole album from iTunes with the new artwork. This solution has worked for me every time (so far). Best of luck.
So many things about the 160GB performance suck ***, but I love the stupid thing. Hoping they fix all the bugs soon!

Podcast cover art doesn't sync. Stuck at an old cover art. Help PLZZZZ?

Hi. The Podcast cover art doesn't sync. Its stuck at an old cover art from the previous played episodes. I believe it's showing the cover art from the first available episode even though each episode has a different cover art. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot. :)

iTunes is looking for a feed at http://feeds.feedburner.com/RogueArrowPodcast . The reason this does not work is that the media file URLs are feedproxy ones which do not end with an extension, e.g. .mp3, so iTunes doesn't recognize them as media files and does not display the episodes. You need to provide a direct URL to the media files.
As to the other feed, the image URL leads to a Photobucket web page hosting the image. This obviously won't work and you need to provide a direct link to the image. The actual URL is
http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww146/amazingbass/Podcasts/RogueArrowiTunes.p ng
However the image is 1024 x 1024 - it must be 1400 x 1400 (and less than 500kB which it is at the moment).
If you submit this feed it will end up as an entirely separate podcast, entitled 'Autologicool Test Feed'. You need to correct the image and then substitute the code in the original feed from which the Feedburner feed is drawn.

Cover art from TV Shows won't sync to iPhone 6, movies do

My iPhone 6 will accept my movies from iTunes, but not TV Shows. All of this content syncs perfectly with my iPhone 5, but not my iPhone 6. I have no idea why. The cover art doesn't make it over for TV shows, yet there seems to be a gray place holder in the Videos app. What has changed? Some TV shows seem to be there but with no cover art, and they won't play. Others have no cover art either, but they play.

How did a bug solve the problem?
I experience the same problem with covers - the problem is ages old and nothing gets done to fix or at least explain it - :-(
iOS8.1 does not fix this awful awful bug :-(

Cover Art Doesn't Display for New CDs, Podcasts, etc.

Cover art doesn't display for new items that I add to my 60GB iPod from iTunes. Older items are fine but new CDs, podcasts or songs purchased from iTunes don't display cover art on my iPod. The cover art is there when viewed in iTunes but just doesn't display when they are being played. The problem seems to have started about a month ago. Anyone experience something similar?

Thanks for the suggestion but.... it actually made the problem worse. When I went to the music tab I found that the "Display Cover Art" check box was unchecked so I clicked in the box and the fun began. First thing that happened was the iTunes status box displayed "Deleting covert art from iPod" (definately not what I would have expected) for about a minute then it changed to "Optimizing cover art on your iPod" (that seemed like a step in the right direction) but then I got an error message saying "Can't sync iPod. Unknow error". Closing out the error message ended the process. I was able to eject my iPod after that without any issues but now even more covert art doesn't display (even though when viewed through iTunes its there).

My Podcast Just Became Searchable But The Cover Art Is Not Showing

Hi,
My podcast just became searchable in the itunes store. I knew it took a few days but the cover art is not showing yet.
Is this a process that just takes more time as well? When I subscribe to it the artwork shows up but it's not showing up in the store..
thoughts?

Your feed is at http://feeds.feedburner.com/MobileMixedPodcast
The image is correctly referenced in the feed: it can take several days before the image appears in the Store, so it's just a question of waiting.

Everytime I update my ipod - loading new songs - my Album art doesn't show

I don't know if this has been happening to other ppl, but ever since I updated my ipod to newer version of OS4, my album art doesn't show up when it locks to home screen. When I go into music - it shows that the album art is there, but when I lock my ipod, the album art doesn't show up. But when I turn off and on again, it works again. It's just really annoying to always turn off my ipod and on again. And also I've noticed that after updating my ipod (loading new songs) it seems really slow - but when I turn if off and on again - it works normally.
I Don't have lots of songs or movies - I have used a little over half of the space. It's just that these things only happened right after I updated my OS to newer iOS4!
Can either someone make a better iOS4 or something?

Try deleting the songs from your iPod, then in your iTunes library delete the album art and reload the album art back to the songs and put them back on your iPod.

How do you see individual tv show episodes and not the cover for the tv show in cover flow?

I used iFlicks to import some of my TV series to iTunes. I then selected the cover flow view because its easier to see when sitting on the coach. The only problem i've got is that iTunes shows covers for each TV series but I can't seem to find a way to see how many episodes are in a series and how to select that episode. This is specifically for cover flow view. I took screenshot that shows Season 1 of Alphas that consists of 5 episodes:
[IMG]http://i1219.photobucket.com/albums/dd432/vmoodleyzaf/ScreenShot2011-12-21at1933 27.png[/IMG]
As you can see in the screenshot, there's no indication of the episodes contained within the series. If anyone has any ideas about this, i'd really appreciate it.

If you are in Cover Flow view, fullscreen, selecting the cover only plays the first episode of the series. I even tried downloading an entire season from iTunes and it does the same thing. Obviously, iTunes names the episodes and season numbers correctly. If I press the skip button on the remote while watching an episode, it jumps to the next episodes without showing any info about the new episode. Please note that this is in fullscreen mode. If I exit fullscreen mode, then a list of episodes is shown below the cover of the tv show. However, that list is not viewable from a distance.

Have an phone 6 plus cannot see cover art of tv shows I have

I cannot see cover art if I put them on my phone or if I'm using home sharing. No cover art shown even though I know they are there

New iPod Touch 4g music/cover art problems.

I just got my new iPod Touch on Monday and I was syncing music onto it (manually) today and all of a sudden, the cover art on most of my albums/songs were erased. Should I get a new iPod or is there any way to fix it? I really don't want to restore it already when I can just go get a new one if I'll have problems with this one in the future. Also, on my 2g iPod Touch, I could manually add lyrics, cover art, and other things within the iPod music list itself. Now, the cover art doesn't show up when I edit from there. Any suggestions as to what's going on and what I should do?

i hope i'm not late but AFTER SO LONG OF SEARCHING EVERYWHERE ( i had this problem) i myself tried an experiment
and i finally found what works
you're not alone in this LOTS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ****** PROBLEM because of iOS 5
anyways here is what you have to do ( it's kind of hard to understand so i hope you do )
go to your device ( in itunes) and mark off the sync music tab then click apply or sync ( this will wipe out all of your music)
then you click the box again & you click sync ( this will put the music back into your ipod )
NOW we're not done yet
quickly go to music ( in your itunes library) and just go around each song , like just clicking each song ( even twice if u want) and this will make the album covers appear onyour ipod ( u have to hurry before it stops syncing)
so a faster way to do it is to just go to music in your library and the arrows ( in your computer's keyboard)
ya know the arrows that are like up & down, left & right
well.. quickly go over each album cover or song cover with the left and right arrows
and if some of the covers don't go tru just click enter as if you were going to listen to them
I REALLY HOPE THIS HELPS BECAUSE IT HELPED ME and i know how annoying this is and i want people to do this because it really works
best of luck .xx

Front Row, Shared Libraries and Cover Art.

I have my Macbook connected to my audio system and I share files between my Macbook and iMac. When playing files that are in the shared library (the files located on my iMac), most of the time the cover art doesn't show. Why is that?
I have noticed that the files where the Covert Art doesn't show up are files where the art was obtained through the iTunes store. The files where I have manually found the cover art work fine.
iMac 24", 2.16GHZ, 500GB & Macbook 2.0 GHZ, 80GB Mac OS X (10.4.8)

iTunes 7 does not embed artwork that it downloads, it stores it seperately.
You can embed it by applying it through the Get Info window. To do this:
1. Ctrl-click on the picture in the lower left and select copy.
2. Open preview and hit command-n to create a new file from the clipboard.
3. Save the file to the desktop.
4. Select all of the tracks on the album, ctrl-click on one and select "Get Info".
5. Drag the picture from the desktop onto the artwork box.
You can also use a third party tool such as Curator or CoverScout.

Cover Art in Playlist

When I select a playlist, my cover art doesn't show on my Itouch.
In itunes it shows. But when a song is playing I just get the note thing.
I must have missed something somewhere. I know it used to show.
Software version is 2.2.1.
Thank
Jo

on the top right side you should see a button named "Now Playing", tap on it.

When I download a movie from iTunes the cover art disappears. I try get info and add the art, it doesn't show up. So it's just gray. It opens and plays fine. Apple can't figure it out. It's an nas drive. When I use a firewire drive I get the art

When I download movies from iTunes to my NAS drive, I don't get the cover art. It shows up while its downloading, but when it's finish it disappears. If it has an iTunes extra the cover art is there. I tried get info and add the cover art, it never shows. Regardless of how I add it. Funny thing is, if I download the same movie to my external firewire drive, no problem its there. I've called Apple with no success. I've even tried copying the movie with the art from the firewire drive to replace the file on then NAS drive I still loose the movie cover art. I also tried several times to re download it, no luck. Any ideas? I'm out of ideas.

Do you have any videos/movies in the video app?
In iTunes if you right click on the video and select Get Info and go to the Option tap what Media Type is shown?

Why doesn't my podcast cover art show in store but appears in iTunes library after I subscribe?

My podcast cover art is not showing up in the iTunes store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/liberation-radio/id591038133
As soon as I subscribe via iTunes on my computer and look at the podcast in the Library, the cover art is there. I can't figure out what's wrong. The image is 1400x1400. The original feed submitted to iTunes is here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/LiberationRadio
Can anyone assist? Thanks in advance!

Great, that explains it. We had moved the image to a new URL and actually updated the original feed that we input into Feedburner with that URL ... but we also had Feedburner Smartcast turned on which creates its own iTunes tags and overrides any that may already be in the feed, and the image URL in Smartcast there was the old one.
In any case, we not only updated Feedcast Smartcast with the correct image URL, but we also put a copy of the image at the old URL so that even the URL presently used by iTunes should work.
Any idea how long it takes for the store to update the cover art? Anything we can do to expedite it?
Thanks!

Urgh...wrong album cover art...how do I take it off

I have?a Zen Vision M, 30gb, and I have a problem removing unwanted cover art. I suppose it's not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things...the songs play, and they're where their supposed to be. But I find this HELLA annoying
!!! Since I've transferred a great deal of my CD collection into it, I like to organize things (and search) by album. But since I also have a lot of random songs that I have downloaded from various places, and I don't want a whole bunch of incomplete "albums" to search through, I filed them into an "album" tagged "Miscellaneous."? So last night I'm?making new tags and reorganizing some files, and when I unplug my Zen from the computer, I go into my "Miscellaneous" and see that?ALL the songs now have the cover art?from ONE of the songs in that folder. What's even stranger is that that specific?cover art doesn't even show in Windows Media Player, so I have NO idea how it became attached with all my miscellaneous songs. To top it off, I transferred some CD's into my Zen who's cover art DID show, but it doesn't come up in my Zen. To that I say "whatever"... I'd like to have the cover art, but I can li've without it. But to have the WRONG cover art for?A LOT of my songs just makes me?incredibly aggrevated!? So what can I do to remove the unwanted cover art?
Oh, and I should point out that I got my Zen when it'sfirst came out, so I have like the oldest MediaSource Organizer that doesn't support cover art.

I don't own a Vision M, but I know how my other players from Creative work. They use the ID3 tags in each track for artist, album art, etc. I use media monkey to tag all the tracks on my computer before I transfer them to the player. Here's the bad news. In my experience, you will have to remove the tracks from the player and throw them back on once they are tagged properly. I know of no way to change the tags on the players themselves. Eric

Windows 7 Music Library doesn't show some of my album art all of a sudden. No solutions found!!

So my music files in my music folder on the computer still doesn't show the album art. some of the art covers still exist on the music files but newly downloaded and some music files that existed don't show the album art anymore.
I've tried most of the solutions online but none of them solved the problem. I don't think it's the media player because when I play it on the media player it shows the album art for the music. And I also cleared the cashe in the mediaplayer folder. There
must be something with the system because the folder showed the cover art before but all of a sudden it stopped displaying them.
I don't know what's wrong with it...is there something that makes the music album art not show all of a sudden and the album art doesn't show for the newly downloaded music as well...

Hi haydnan
It may be a problem of Windows 7 Explorer. First you can try all the different explorer views, title, Large icon..
If there is no effect, you can try to the following methods.
In Windows Explorer
1. left click on the mail folder where your music is stored and select it.
2. Now right click and go to “properties”.
3. Now click “advanced”.
4. Put a check in the “Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties”.
5.Click ”OK”.
6.Click”Apply”.
7. Click “OK” to apply changes to this folder. Sub folders and files.
Now go to your music library and see if it works.
