Do I have to cut and paste album artwork for all the albums in my library?

So my 4gb ipod 1st gen is pretty much dead so I've bought a 3rd gen. 8gb nano, upgraded my iTuunes software to 7.5 and syncd my library onto my new iPod. All songs I've bought from iTunes have album artwork and one other old album I uploaded myself alos has album artwork but all 130 of the other albums in my library do not have artwork.
I've gone to Advanced> Get Album Artwork, but I get the error message "could not find some artwork". I can't understand why only one of my uploaded albums has artwork visible on iTunes but all of the others don't? Do I really ahve to cut and past from Amazon for each album? Hope the anser is "No" becasue that's really time consuming!

I guess you've figured out that the answer is "yes". Remember you can do groups of songs (like an album) at a time by selecting them and doing "get info". Also, by saving album art in the mp3 file, you can save it permanently.

    I can't be the only person who has this problem with iCal- when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that.

    Yeah that works, but, it involves a click on the event, a click on edit, a click on the date, keystrokes, plus, since you can't see the next month you have to have a calendar in front of you so as to put it to the right date. It's easier just to cut it and advance the month and paste it, once you are in the right month you can move it around helter skelter willy nilly no problems. Although now that you mention it I will try it, maybe it is easier than cut and paste as I don't really care about the date, as long as it gets moved into the right month I can drag it around all I want.

  • Having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this

    I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

    May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
    M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
    When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
    To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.

    If you think getting your web pages to appear OK in all the major browsers is tricky then dealing with email clients is way worse. There are so many of them.
    If you want to bulk email yourself, there are apps for it and their templates will work in most cases...

    The alternative is to use a marketing service if your business can justify the cost. Their templates are tested in all the common email clients...

  • When I click on an email link on a website it doesn't open my entourage mail, I have to cut and paste the email address in

    When I am looking at a website and it says contact us with an email address, in the past when I click on this my entourage 'new mail' page would open so I could contact them, but know that doesn't happen and I have to cut and paste the email address into entourage manually, sometime this is not possible becuase the website doesn't actually give the email address just a 'click here' option

    Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025.  So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3).  When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr.  I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports.  This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.

  • How do i copy album artwork to all the songs in an album

    How do i copy album artwork to all the songs in an album as some of the songs do not have the artwork, as with the previous version of itunes you had to load artwork individually.
    I have tried the copy and paste option and that does not work
    Look forward to hearing from you

    "How do i copy album artwork to all the songs in an album as some of the songs do not have the artwork, as with the previous version of itunes you had to load artwork individually."
    That suggests some underlying issue, as iTunes has always (AFAIR) allowed artwork to be assigned with multiple tracks in a single action.  For an album, right-click on the album, select Get Info, select the Artwork tab.  You then have three options:
    If the artwork image exists as a file, click the Get Artwork button, browse to and select the file, then click Open.
    Drag and drop the image file from Windows Explorer to the Artwork tab (previous releases also allowed drag and drop from a web browser, this functionality is missing - either by design or as the result of a bug - in iTunes 12).
    If you've copied the artwork image to the clipboard, press Ctrl-V on the keyboard to paste in the image (prior to the 1st release of iTunes 12 this could also be done using right-click > Paste - hopefully this will be restored as a bug-fix in the next update)
    "I have tried the copy and paste option and that does not work."
    There are three possible causes for this:
    The format of your media files doesn't support embedded artwork - specifically, uncompressed audio in WAV format.  You'll need to convert to Apple Lossless (without loss of quality) or either MP3 or AAC (if you're OK with lossy media) before artwork images can be associated with your media.
    Windows' permissions are preventing your media files from being updated when iTunes attempts to embed the images (in a perfect world iTunes should report this as an error, but it actually does nothing).  To check this, find the folder that contains media of interest in Windows Explorer (by default this will be C:\Users\user_name\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_name), right-click and select Properties, Security tab - check that your Windows user account has full control over the folder.
    The media files that you're trying to add artwork to may be set to read-only in Windows. Select the folder as before in Windows Explorer, right-click > Properties and make sure that the Read-only flag is cleared.

  • HT1212 I did not sync my iPad to iTunes on my PC. Now my iPad is disabled because I forgot my passcode when I set up iOS 7 on it. I have tried to use the support info from Apple AND the cut and paste responses from people in the community, but it does not

    I did not sync my iPad to iTunes to my PC. Now my iPad is disabled because I forgot my passcode when I installed iOS 7 to it.
    Before anyone cuts and pastes the info from Apple support in response to this, I have already tried those steps. iTunes simply states that it cannot do anything since the iPad is locked with a passcode. I cannot access iCloud to use that specific advice as iCloud will not let me sign in; a message keeps coming up reading that there is an error with the server. Remote Swipe? Not sure. It is three hours later, and I am no further.
    What else can I do? I never had a passcode set up when I first got my iPad. I would have bypassed this with the installation of iOS 7 if I had known about this.
    Thank you in advance.

  • When I include a web link in my Hotmail email, it isn't blue. My recipients have to 'cut and paste' my links to use them. With Explorer the links are blue and folks just 'click' on them. Is there a setting in Firefox to allow links to be 'clickable'?

    Is there a setting to change to make included links in my emails true links instead of 'cut and paste' links?

  • Cut and Paste not working for specific client?

    Gui Gurus,
    I have recently upgraded some users to Gui 710 Patch 8.  However on one users install, she cannot copy and paste the entire content of a cell.  For example:
    If she copies aaaabbbbbccccdddd, she'll only get aaaabbbbbcccc.  For some reason it gets truncated.
    I have tried this on my identical install and can do the exact same cut and paste for the same input field fine.  I did a reinstall of her Gui, but that did not help.  I checked her user parameters and could not find anything to alter this behavior.  I tried "Quick Cut and Paste" also, and that yielded the same incorrect results.  I did not see anything else in the Options / I18N that would alter this?
    Any ideas where to look?
    Thanks,
    Jeff Martens
    Basis Admin.

    Martin,
    Thanks for the reply.  I did try the cut & paste option in the expert tab and that did not work.
    I am copying from a normal user input field to another input field.  This is not static text that you would have to CTRL+Y to copy.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    * Copy: ctrl+c, or right-click|Copy

    It doesn't make sense to cut; you wouldn't want to damage email messages, surely?

  • I have macbook pro w existing iPhoto library. Now have Canon printer and loaded Canon software for same. Cannot access iPhoto library from Canon software, but prints fine from iPhoto. How can I use iPhoto library w Canon software?

    I have a macbook pro w exisitng iPhoto library. I now have Canon printer and loaded Canon software for same. I cannot access iPhoto library for use from Canon software. I can print from iPhoto directly to new printer without problem. How can I use iPhoto library with Canon software? I would like to try the software to see which I prefer...

    Simply export some photos from iPhoto to a folder on the desktop and experiment.
    Without telling us even what this program is, not to mind what it does, that's the best anyone can suggest.

  • I now have ios7 downloaded and I can't close all the apps that are open

    With the old system I could push the button on the bottom 2x and it would show me all the open apps so I could close them, now  it shows me the open apps but I can't close any of them.

    Thanks for the answer. I actually figured it out about an hour after posting, but I appreciate knowing that I had done the right thing.
    It would be good to have a FAQ about this though, seeing others presumably have similar issues.
