Not....NOT happy the cover flow is gone. 
It was widely announced when iTunes 11 was released that CoverFlow was removed.  It will not be coming back.  Per Apple, there simply were not enough people using it.

  • Is cover flow gone in iTunes 11?

    Just what the topic asks, Thanks!

    I watched the new video on the iTunes 11 page and noticed Cover Flow is gone.  What a disappointment!  I preferred a partial list view with Cover Flow, like others probably did too.  I will check out iTunes 11 on my external drive with Snow Leopard, just for fun, but I will not be replacing 10.7 on my main drive.  I used the feeback page to say what a mistake it was to remove Cover Flow, and I would not recommend the upgrade to anyone.  You can restore the sidebar and status bar at the bottom by reselecting them in the View menu.  I don't think the removal of Cover Flow has anything to do with the patent lawsuit in 2010, because the judge reversed the decision in 2011.  I think this is just Apple's way...just as they ruined iMovie from the complete overhaul from iMovie HD 6 to iMovie 7.

  • No Cover flow for Search History in Safari 6.1

    Just upgraded to Safari 6.1 and can't search my history using the visual (coverflow) method anymore? I use that all the time here at work. Please tell me there's a way to get it working again, because looking at a page full of URLs does NOT help!

    Cover flow is gone and there is no option to turn it back on (as far as I have found).  It should be an option for those of us that used it.  Here may be an alternative way though to get the screenshots from your browsing history.  Go to the Finder's Spotlight (upper right magnifying glass).  Click on it and type your history search there.  One section will include the Webpages you have visited that meet those search keywords.  If you hover your pointer over a Webpage result you will get a screenshot of the page.  What I am not sure of however is whether it is a cached copy (like Coverflow) or whether it is a live view of the webpage.  If this a live view then someone please send a feature request to Apple to give us the option of Coverflow (even if it comes with a disclaimer that it will slow down Safari).

    Anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it? Tried re-installing iTunes, switching to grid etc and back, none of the usual fixes are working.

    I have the exact same problem. I found a solution here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12623727&#12623727
    I rebuilt the iTunes Library ITL and XML files and it resolved the issue. However, the first draw back as stated was that it reset the 'Date Added' information. The second issue I found is it that it lost all custom/manually added album art.
    Is there another fix for this that exists? Or a way to port over the album art that was manually added?

  • Scratchy Sound When Sliding Through Covers in Cover Flow View in iTunes 8

    Anyone having problems with a scratchy sound as you slide through covers in the cover flow view in iTunes 8?
    Also sliding too fast has caused app to crash.

    The scratchy sound seems to have come up a few times with iTunes 8 (including in a couple of other threads that I can't find right now). It seems to have picked up around the last QT update, which was coincident with the iTunes upgrade.
    (post updated)
    I must admit, I didn't read closely at 7:30 in the morning, and didn't see this was just happening to OP with cover flow.
    But there have been a number of people (including me) complaining of general scratchiness in iTunes 8 and AirTunes that seems traceable to the last QT update. Be glad you aren't in my situation, where it's ALWAYS scratchy.

  • Album covers not all appearing in Cover Flow

    I have a new iPhone 5, (IOS 6.0.1) and I restored all of my apps from a backup of my iPhone 4 (IOS 6.0.1).  I notice that my album covers do not all appear in Cover Flow mode.  I checked my iPhone 4, before resetting it, and it had the same problem.  I deleted the music from my iPhone 5 and restored all of the playlists from my MacPro and still have the problem. I cannot detect and differences between those that appear and those that do not appear.  Any ideas?
    And btw, I manually installed he Album Art on each Album, I did not use iTunes to search for Album Art.

    Does this article help?

  • Cover Flow file name covers preview image

    Probably wishful thinking, but is there anyway to change Finder's Cover Flow settings so a file's name doesn't cover up the image?
    (Preferably have the name under the image, like in Mavericks)

    I have the same question. The file name covering part of the image is distracting and seems like the kind of thing that should be available as a setting. Seems strange that the designers would choose to move the file name on top of the image and obstruct it. I'd love to know if there is anyway to move the file name so that it isn't blocking part of the image. Using column view is an alternative option which provides a nice large and unobstructed view of images in much the same way but with the added slight load delay with larger images that cover flow seems to be without since thumbnails are loaded within the cover flow. Still covering images with a file name seems like something that slipped through the cracks.

  • Cover Flow cache is gone every time I restart iTunes.

    The title pretty much says it all. Ever since I began running iTunes on my new MacBook Pro (Spring 2009, 3.06 Ghz with 4GB of RAM) I was pretty disappointed with how slowly Cover Flow worked. I had been using iTunes on a PC for a while, but I figured that on brand new top-of-the-line Apple hardware, iTunes and Cover Flow would fly.
    The problem is, every time I restart iTunes, it appears that any Cover Flow image cache is gone. It seems like it has to re-lookup and re-load every image in my library as I scroll. It is usually smart enough to predict where a long scroll if going to end and pre-load the images at my destination, but every cover that I "flow" over during the scroll appears as just the default musical note symbol. Plus, moving around is choppy as it loads every image. I have to manually scroll through the whole library in order to force it to load every single cover and therefore respond smoothly as I scroll through. This keeps working until I restart the app, and then I'm back to square one.
    Why is this happening?

    Thank you to all that gave advice, none of the suggestions worked I'm afraid........ but I did find a solution to the problem, by accident......... Doing a normal sync still does not work...... So what I have done is, limited each file to just 1000 photos, and have ended up with 32 files now........... I have ticked the boxes     "Sync photo's from, selected files" and I sync with the first file ticked, then sync again with the second ticked, and so on, I know its long winded but they are now all on my ipod

  • Cover Flow Doesn't show some covers

    When iTunes imports a CD on a popular album, I click on Download Cover Art, and 75% of the time it can't find a cover art.
    I usually can find the cover art easily on www.allmusic.com and transfer it into iTunes.
    When I sync the Nano, I've noticed that there are a couple of album covers that don't show in the Cover Flow, although, when I go to artist or albums, it shows up there.
    Any ideas on this?
    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!

  • Cover Flow shows wrong covers since iOS 4.3

    Since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 4.3 the covers shown in Cover Flow are totally messed up, most of the covers are wrong. When I start a track and rotate the iPhone back to its normal position the right cover shows up. Also when I do not use Cover Flow and scroll through the albums normally (holding the iPhone vertically) every cover is correct.
    Something seems to be wrong with the Cover Flow feature. Syncing and rebooting the iPhone didn't help. Although it might solve the problem I'm not willing to restore the iPhone.
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    I have this same problem and noticed it after "upgrading" to iOS 4.3 on my iPod Touch 4th gen. Various albums have swapped and incorrect cover art — some albums that can't even have cover art (WAV files) are showing others' cover art.
    Resets haven't helped me, nor has delete all music and re-sync. This is really annoying, and I hope Apple fixes it soon!

  • Cover flow gone wrong

    Hi,
    I'm really confused as to why my cover flow has become very distorted. Everything else on my iTunes is fine apart from when I view my album covers in cover flow all I get is a mass of black, white and colored lines. Even the scroll bar and text at the bottom is like this. The problem also occours when I try to view previews of films in the iTunes store. I have tried re-installing the new version of iTunes, deleting all the album covers and putting them back on again and even deleting my entire music library from my computer. However it does not affect my iPod touch's cover flow. Can anybody help me fix it!???
    Katherine

    Hi,
    There are two likely causes for the symptoms you decribe, detailed in the two sections of the post I pointed out. First make sure the album is not marked as Compilation. Select all the tracks of one of the problem albums, Get info. then on the options tab make sure *Part of a compilation* reads No, tick the checkbox even if it already says No. Click OK. I don't use my iPod in manual mode but I presume iTunes will do tag modifications in manual mode. Second possibility revolves around the various "Sort" fields which can be used to override the natural sorting order for albums and artists. Take *The Clash* for example. iTunes will normally set a Sort Artist value of "Clash" so the band is listed under C instead of T. You can put your own value for sort artist, e.g. "ZZZZ Clash", would normally force them towards the end of Cover flow or the Artists menu. Check what values, if any, these fields have to see if they could be causing the problem. It might also pay to reset your ipod as this will sometimes fix errors in the way it lists things.

  • No Covers in grid and list modes, but in Cover Flow and Information

    I have Itunes 9.0.2 and the Covers of the songs are only shown in Cover Flow and under Information. If I'm in grid mode or other modes they are not shown. In the left down corner there is only black. Any idea?

    It's the same for me.
    I have added the cover s to every song. Under XP Home 32 Bit everything ist ok, und Windows 7 64 Bit the covers are there in the information and in coverflow, but not in the list an dgrid layout.
    When I klick on the ? and then on "Info" the About-Window appears, but its content is only black too.
    I updated the driver for the Nvidia GT230, but it didn't help.
    Any idea anybody?

  • 1st gen showing genius mix covers for regular albums in cover flow

    This problem recently happened. On my cover flow for albums, the covers for genius mixes are displayed for some albums, even though they have the correct album art in itunes. By genius mix covers i mean like the four squares with a different album in them. I don't understand. I already turned off genius thinking it had something to do with it but it's still happening. It started with only two albums but now it's spreading like a virus.

    I have the same problem. The wrong art only shows up for me when I'm on the iPod in Cover Flow. On iTunes Cover Flow the artwork is right. I tried deleting the album art for one such album, but the Genius Mix album still shows up on the iPod Cover Flow. I disabled Genius, and it did not fix it. I'm now about to restore my iPod and re-sync it to see if that solves it.
