Coverflow showing "invisible" album cover rather than "music symbol" cover

I recently noticed that my iPhone is showing a completely invisible album cover instead of the normal music symbol cover in coverflow & regular iPod modes. This is strange as I usually see the music symbol placeholder album cover when browsing the iPod software. With the completely invisble cover, it's hard to notice the album when browsing in coverflow. Is this a known bug?

One thing to try is to find the songs that belong to the album in itunes.
Right click or control click on the each of the songs and go to the artwork tab.
Delete any artwork associated with the song.
Now add the artwork you want associated with the album.
Connect the iphone to the computer.
Use manually manage to remove the album from the iphone.
Then sync the album back to the iphone.
Hope this helps.

  • Can I use album artist rather than Artist on my iPod160?

    The Artist selection on the iPod has its problems as "Album Artist" is not always the same as "Artist". I know I can correct the Cover Flow problems with Artist View by use of the Sort Artist option but I do have a few questions.
    I would rather display the Album Artist rather than Artist. Is this possible? I can do it in ITunes but cannot seem to do it on the iPod itself.
    Also, is it possible to do mass changes on Sort Artist rather than hit "next", paste the change, etc. Everything I try to mass change, Sort Artist is not an option.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, the 'album artist' field is ignored on the iPod (I hope it one day will be 'solved'). If you mark albums with multiple artists as 'compilation', the album artist in iPod coverflow is automatically set to 'various artists'. And I haven't found a way to mass-edit the sort fields either

  • List CD as a BOOK type rather than MUSIC

    I imported a CD into my iTunes library (Mac Mountain Lion OS). The CD is excerpts and meditation exercises from a book I am reading. Just wondering if there is a way to have the CD show up as a BOOK type rather than MUSIC?
    Thanks for any help.

  • How do I get all my pins (bookmarks) to show up on maps rather than choosing one from the bookmark list?

    How do I get all my pins (bookmarks) to show up on maps rather than having to choose from the bookmark list? I can see my list getting very large and more cumbersome to search. In google maps, all my starred locations show up on my map.

    Have you let Apple know you would like to see this feature? They do not participate in the forum, and their only source of user feedback is the feedback page. To let them know you would like to see a feature, go to the feedback page at www.apple.com/feedback and select the appropriate link.

  • HT1382 how do I organize iTunes in Album folders, rather than artist/album.

    The way iTunes organizes my music is not very organized for me. I would like to organize all songs from an album into a single folder, rather than having the album folders present with artists folder.  Is there any way I can change the way iTunes organizes the songs in my media library?
    I tried to see if I can export a playlilst that is organized by Albums rathre than artists, but there seems to be no options.

    iTunes has exactly one way to organize, and that is by artist/album.
    If that is not what you prefer, then go into Preferences > Advanced, and make sure that "Keep..." and "Copy..." are both not checked.  Then, for any new songs you plan to add to iTunes, put them in whatever folder you want them to be, and iTunes will be reference their current location, and will not move or change anything.
    BTW, changing those settings will give you the correct handling of new additions, but will not change anything that is already in the library.  Also, it does not affect any future items purchased from the iTunes Store.

  • Why do episodes of a TV show season appear separately rather than grouped together?

    I have a 64GB iPad3 and downloaded the first season of Avatar: the Last Airbender from the iTunes store app on the iPad.  After downloading, I went to the video app and saw that each episode was listed by itself rather than grouped together as a season. 
    Is there a way to fix this?  It is very frustrating because I like the feature of the video app that lets you watch episodes one right after the other.
    Thanks in advance!

    The same thing happens on the iPhone. Apple changed this close to two years ago and I too don't like it. I have 160 music videos, Apple used to goup them by band if there were more than three videos by that band but now they are all listed individually like TV shows do.

  • OT: Did you know you can change your profile to show your real name, rather than just your Adobe ID?

    I realize this is off-topic for this particular forum, but I hope it may help some readers. Since this forum is "where I live" in the Adobe forums, I wanted top share it here first. Perhaps after some feedback to refine things, I may post it elsewhere (another forum perhaps, and/or my blog).
    As I was answering a question from someone, finding myself again able only to refer to them by their brief Adobe ID (which often seems to have no connection at all to their name), I wondered:
    Do people realize that they can change their forum identity so that their real name (or whatever other identifying info) shows up rather than just their brief Adobe ID? It's just that some folks would much prefer "talking" with someone by refer to them by their real name (or at least something more than just their Adobe ID).:-)
    I suppose some may choose intentionally to remain “relatively anonymous” with just that ID to identify them, but I think many more simply don't know that they *can* change what's shown. You can. But it seems we can't do it inside the forums software itself.
    Instead, we just need to modify our "Adobe account" to associate a name with our ID (which of course could have benefit in other places where our names might be used).
    You can do by going to https://www.adobe.com/account.html, then choose “My Information” (and login if prompted). Then, on the page shown, under the section “My Personal Profile” you can fill in the first and last name fields. (You can also your password here, and it seems even your username.)
    It may be possible that after making that change, you would need to sign out and back into the forums (forums.adobe.com) for the change to be picked up, but if it is, you should then see "Welcome [your name]" in the top right corner of the forums page, if it's worked.
    And now any forum messages you create should have that name at the top of the message when people read it, and it would also be in the FROM address if people receive it as email (note we're NOT talking about your email address. That is never shown. If people reply to forum messages received by email, the reply goes back to a generic forum email address.)
    Hope all that's helpful to someone.
    BTW, I had done the change myself a long time ago, so I'm retracing these steps now for others to do it. If you try it and can confirm that it works, please drop a note here. Thanks.

    It works, thanks!

  • The same album appears more than once in cover flow

    *1st question:* I just got my i-pod and i-tunes pulled album artwork automatically for the songs i put in i-tunes (not all of them of course), but when i view them on my i-pod using cover flow it will have the same album cover 2 or 3 times side by side. How do i get the cover flow option to only show one album? Why is it doing this - doubling up on an album with the same songs? Do i have to rename the album within the properties of the mp3 files to make them all the same?
    *2nd question:* Can i assign a mp3 file or song to a specific album within i-tunes? If i have a song that i don't know the album name of or if i don't care and just want it with other songs for an artist can i add that song to an album that is already established within i-tunes and has album artwork? I also want to use this to get rid of the grey boxes for songs that i-tunes could not find album art for - i just want to put all of these random songs into one album. Can i do this somehow?

    Can i assign a mp3 file or song to a specific album within i-tunes?
    Right click - get info and type in an album name.
    If i have a song that i don't know the album name
    I'd give it an album name of Unknown Album
    I also want to use this to get rid of the grey boxes for songs that i-tunes could not find album art for - i just want to put all of these random songs into one album. Can i do this somehow?
    Select all the songs, right click - get info.
    Give them an album name (such as Unknown Album) and paste in a picture of your choosing.

  • Hover Card is showing US formated date rather than UK formated date

    The HoverCard in the search results is showing the last modified date in US culture i.e. MMM/dd/yyyy rather than UK dd/MMM/YYYY. The culture of the search site collection is UK. 
    jamtoday

    When you say culture you mean locale? Might be worth re-checking the time / calendar options as sometimes switching the locale doesn't switch out the remainder of the options in that config page.

  • Buddy list shows up in dashboard rather than on desktop

    strange. Selecting any command such as change picture makes the dialogue open in desktop correctly.
    Anyone have experience this?

    Hi,
    iChat has always worked on the premise it Remembers where the Windows were last time it was Opened.
    For Instance.
    You start up iChat and all the Buddy lists appear on the Desktop (presuming they are separate)
    If you use a red Button on one of them then the Buddy List "Disappears"
    iChat is Not Quit by this action nor is that Buddy list logged out (See Window Menu or iChat menu > Accounts).
    If you then shut down the computer ichat will get QUit as part of this process (no matter which OS version)
    When you Restart iChat, it will remember that one Buddy List was "Hidden"
    The Window Menu will show it Logged in (As will the iChat menu > Accounts) and it will be ticked in the Preferences > Accounts.
    Using the DOCK to bring up the Buddy List only does so for that session of iChat.
    A similar effect is seen when you use the Amber button on the Buddy list window rather than the red one.
    Using the Window Menu and the Keystrokes listed (CMD and a number) will bring it back "permanently"
    Lion and the setting in System Preferences > General Section that refers to remembering Open Windows takes this to All apps.
    Summary.
    The Red Button does not log out a Buddy list or Quit the App
    Same for the Amber Button.
    Using either Button will either Hide or place the window in the DOCK
    If iChat is Quit at this stage is separately or by a Shut Down of the computer when ichat is restarted later it will remember "where" the window was even if this is Hidden.
    Use the Window menu and the Keystrokes to bring the window back Permanently
    Using the DOCK item brings it back only for that iChat session (until Shut Down or ichat is Quit)

  • The tabs I have open show as new tabs rather than the websites I had opened.

    I have a large number of tabs open in a window, and when I hit "restore previous session" to open them, they are shown as "new tab" rather than the websites I had opened. Prior to the previous two updates, I had no problem with this, but now it's a recurring issue on Firefox.

    Make sure that the history and possibly the disk cache are working.
    Do you see the history in the History Manager (Library; Show All History)?
    To see all History and Cookie settings, choose:
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Options+window+-+Privacy+panel
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.

    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

  • How do you show multiple products horizontally rather than vertically with the module_productfeaturelist?

    I am trying to have 3 to 4 featured products that share the same tag next to each other rather than stacked.  Is there a way to do this by customizing the "List of Products by Tag" or is there another module I should be using?
    What i am currently getting is this and I would like the side by side instead:
    {module_productfeaturelist,featured,3,Weight,,true}

    Your monitor would need an HDMI connection to hook it to AppleTV.  AppleTV would need to be on the same network as the IMac, presumably wireless if you don't want to run cables.
    You would then need to use Airplay Mirroring, and that requires reasonably modern Macs, see:
    About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X
    I don't know for certain but if you set up an automatic powerpoint slideshow you could probably export to an AppleTV compatible movie files, and then play that to AppleTV via iTunes as well, which ought to work with older Macs but video might need to be set to loop or repeat itself a lot.
    If you want to use Airplay Mirroring buthave an old Mac, then AirParrot software has a demo, and some people find this ok.

  • Is there a way to have numbers in a row show below your slideshow rather than thumbnail images?

    I'd like to have just a row of numbers for the viewer to tick through, rather than thumbnail images, to save space around my slideshow...have checked the counter but that must not have been the thing

    Hello,
    Slideshow thubnails won't accept anything else apart from images. Slideshows only accept images. Use compositions if you wish to insert text etc.

  • Safari showing prices in Euros, rather than dollars

    I'm using Safari Version 5.0.2 (6533.18.5). Beginning with my latest upgrade (that may have been the latest security upgrade), Safari has been displaying all prices on web sites in Euros, rather than dollars. When I go to the same web site using Camino, the prices are shown (properly) in dollars. I can't find a Safari preference that will affect this behavior. Am I missing something?

    HI...
    It means another account on your Mac.
    If you've never created one, instructions here. Creating a new user account - Snow Leopard v10.6
    Name the account Test, give it a password. That way you have test account set up for troubleshooting now and in the future. Very handy....
