Cover Artwork does not sync

I have a Nano 3rd Generation. I have cover art for both itunes purchases and that I have downloaded from a 3rd party WEB site. Non of the cover art appears in the Nano. I have checked the box in the select screen to sync cover art. What am I doing wrong?

There's a couple of things to try.
First, highlight all tracks before using Apple's 'get artwork' feature. Most people already do this.
For really stubborn albums, and I've had a few where there's no logical reason why the album cover doesn't show on the iPod, try removing the offending tracks from the iTunes library (no need to send them to the trash), then locate them and re-import by double clicking on them, and 'get artwork' again, then re-sync.
Failing that, remove the tracks again, but this time attach the album cover to the track's ID tags directly. You can use something like MediaRage for this. Now the artwork is embedded with the track info and automatically shows in iTunes and the iPod.

  • Some cover artwork does not sync from iTunes to iPod

    I got the album artwork using the "get artwork" feature, but there are a number of album covers that show up in iTunes, but don't display on my iPod after syncing. Most of the artwork synced ok, but there are a few that for some reason don't display. Suggestions?

  • After downloading iTones 10.5.1, the artwork matchs the song that is playing on my iMac but the artwork does not sync properly on my Apple TV. The artwork lags one cover behind. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem.

    I think it is just a bug, but it in very frustrating. I was using just now for about an hour and suddenly the correct artwork appeared for what was playing....but then all went wrong again!!
    Apple, please, please issue a patch for this. It surely cannot be too complicated to correct.

  • Album artwork does not sync to iPod

    I am hoping somebody has encountered the same and has a solution to the following issue:
    I successfully had iTunes 7 automatically download the album artwork for most of the titles in my collection (i.e. those that appear in the iTunes music store). These were all ripped CDs, not purchased songs. I can see the album artwork in iTunes just fine.
    However, when I sync my iPod, none of the art is transferred to my device. The only workaround seems to be making a change to the tags - forcing iTunes to recognize the files have changed. However in doing this, it seems my iPod is getting bloated by 1-2MB of artwork files per album. That seems like a lot. Furthermore, re-syncing all 40GB of music with tag changes will take a long time.
    Does anybody have a solution as to why the auto-downloaded cover art is not automatically being transferred to my iPod, and in a space-efficient manner?
    Thanks.

    I'm having the same problem, and the suggestions here didn't work (other posters have made similar suggestions). Not sure if it's relevant, but all my iPod artwork is manually entered via the "Get Info" function. I didn't have this problem before iTunes 7.

  • Ipod failing to sync properly and cover art does not copy

    Hello. My ipod wont sync properly, fails after about 10 albums with unknown error -53, and album cover art does not copy (fine in itunes). Have restored etc. Have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes software etc.
    Have tried apple support helpline; send ipod off twice, just received replacement new/refurbished ipod today (as on 2nd attempt apple technicians found a problem they called "specific performance symptoms" with the old one).
    New replacement one has the same problem as old one!
    Has anyone seen this problem or had any joy getting a refund?... Any help much appreciated, thanks.

    Select the iPod in iTunes.
    Click the Music tab.
    Are you selecting Sync all playlists?
    Or if you are choosing Selected p[laylist, mkae sure all the playlists you want to sync are checked.

  • Artwork does not *automatically* copy to iPod classic

    We have 3 ipods in our hosuehold, one classic photo, one 3rd generation photo, and a nano from the latest generation.
    All are managed manually.
    On the older 2, artwork does not automatically copy across from itunes to the ipod when songs are added. Instead, I have to select each song or album on the itunes library, manually copy the artwork, and then paste it into the iPod. while not crippling, it is certainly annoying.
    The nano does not seem to have this problem.
    ANybody else have this problem, and is there a way around it?
    Of course I have "display artwork" enabled on all ipods, and the software is up to date, on all ipods and on the mac.

    I don't manually manage, so my apologies for not being really familiar with it. But my question is, have you noticed that the addition of artwork depends on if the artwork was there from the beginning or not?
    In other words, I wonder if when put in a new CD, tracklisting is looked up, you import and artwork gets automatically added. You then drag and drop those tracks to your iPods. Does the artwork show up on the iPod or do you have to do a secondary addition of the artwork?
    Versus, if you already had the songs on your iPod, then LATER added artwork to the tracks in itunes, I could see where unless you resynced the songs to the manually managed iPods, that the artwork wouldn't go onto the iPod automatically and would have to be manually added.
    I mention this because your Nano is the newest one and I am wondering if the issue is that you have stuff on the older iPods from back before artwork was added to your library. You are now adding artwork, but the songs on the old iPods still have older versions without artwork. The Nano, being brand new, you are probably adding tracks that have since had artwork added and so it maybe seems like it is being automatically added to that iPod and not the others when maybe you just need to re-sync the same tracks to the others?
    Again, just some random streams of thought and guessing.
    Cheers,
    Patrick

  • Album artwork does not show on iphone 4

    Does anyone have any solutions of why when you sync your iphone 4 the album artwork does not show in your play lists?  This has happened since I have updated to the ISO.5.0.1?  Any ideas?  Thanks.

  • IPhone calendar does not sync new events and appointments from Outlook

    iTunes 9.2.0.61/iPhone 4.0.1 - does not sync newly added events and appointments! Previously added stuff is all there, new stuff added in Outlook 2007 just doesn't show up. I've gone back to my old Palm T|X which syncs all this stuff with no problem, so it's not an Outlook bug.
    It looks like Apple has put a team of junior programmers on the Calendar app - I've seen leap-year bugs (still there), events showing up on the wrong day (still there), and I'm still waiting for the "week at a glance" view. Calendar is SO important for business use that top level "gray beard" engineers need to be on this. (Question for Apple's calendar developers: what's Zeller's Congruence? It they haven't heard of it they have no business doing calendar programming.)

    Spontaneously started syncing again - no idea why now, nor why it failed for so long. Related to the alarm bug? Who knows...

  • My icloud account does not sync with my iphone 4s. My contacts do not show up on icloud and I do have "contacts" turned on to backup

    My icloud account does not sync with my iphone 4S. My contacts do not turn up on icloud and I do have "contacts" turned on in my phone.

    Unchecking them won't help, it will only hide them from view.  The issue you're running into is that iCloud doesn't sync contacts from non-iCloud accounts like your exchange and Yahoo accounts.  In order to sync these with iCloud, you would need to copy them to the iCloud account and then disable contact syncing with these other accounts.  (If you didn't disable contacts syncing with these accounts, you would see duplicates of these contacts on your phone -- one from the external account, and one from iCloud.)  If you want to do this, do the following:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your other accounts you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email before proceeding to step 3.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and confirm that this is set to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap your Yahoo and your exchange account and turn off contacts syncing with these accounts.  This will remove the contacts from these accounts from your phone.
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from these accounts back to your phone, and to iCloud.  All your contacts should now be in iCloud and be visible on icloud.com.

  • After upgrading to a new iMac 27 my iPhone does not sync with iTunes

    After having the Apple Store migrate all my data and programs from an older iMac to a new iMac 27" my iPhone does not sync.  After connecting the phone it begins and goes to about steps 3 or 4 and then the "apple" appears indicating it is finished - however new pictures have not been transferred to the phone and updates for apps have not happened.  Any ideas?

  • Ical To Do list does not sync with my iPhone4 and Notes too.

    1) I am surprised Why my iphone 4 does not sync ical to do list with my iphone 4's calendar.
    I want to write my to do list things on my iphone and macbook pro whichever is accessible at that point of time and later on they sync with each other.
    i was using a Nokia communicator and it used to sync with "ical" as if they were made for each other. i used to update the nokia or my macbook pro and they use to sync with each other PERFECTLY later on.
    I bought an iphone thinking it was an apple product and would sync "PERFECTLY" with my macbook pro.
    2) the notes i put up on my iphone also "DO NOT" show up on my macbook pro. So basically i have ended up buying a smartphone which is not so smart.
    what i want to do is write my notes on my macbook pro and my iphone whichever is accessible at that point of time and later on they sync with each other.

    ensure that your mail set up is checked for syncing note; your comment on the todo list is valid and i have been asking the same question for a while. ToDo also syncs on blackberry? I guess it shows that third party software is the kick that come corp's need to pick up their act.

  • ICal on my iPhone does not sync with my Mac or iPad.  I am using the cloud.

    My iCal calendar on my iPhone does not sync with my Mac or iPad.  I am on the cloud and every
    thing else is syncing.  I've looked at preferences and everything looks right...

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • IPhone sync to exchange server calendar does not sync any longer, mail is no problem.

    Hi we are running Exchange 2003 and we suddenly discovered some users now cant get their calendar to sync. If we add anything in outlook it wont show up in the iphone and it is the same the other way around.
    We done total reset on the phone, switched the phone to a htc mini and tried that same problem there the calendar does not sync. this is only happening for about 5 users out of 150 users. I have tried reset the profile in outlook.
    I dont know where to start looking to solve this issue.  Hope anyone can shed some light here

    Hi,
    Please try to collect IIS log and then use "activesync" as keyword to have a search.
    Also we can use logparser to analyze the log.

    Besides, please try to test if the issue would occur when we use those problematic iphone to sync with working user's mailbox.

  • Calendar does not sync with iCloud

    I have an iPhone 4S with the latest iOS. A month ago I started a brand new iCloud calendar (every other were deleted). It was working fine, when I launched the app, it synced in 2-3 seconds. But a few days ago it does not sync with iCloud, there is the running circle in the upper line and nothing happens. The interesting thing is when I try it with Wi-Fi, it works, albeit really slowly, under one minute. I did not change any setup. Has anybody an idea?

    Hi Firend,
    In my Calendars app, I selected all calendars to be shown. In Settings, Calendars settings are set: New invitation is turned on, Sync is turn all events on, and Calendar Default is set Calendar From My PC.
    It is working well for long time.
    Hope it will be helpful
