Dragging artwork into iTunes is not working anymore?

For years i have been finding images on the internet and dragging them into the box in the bottom left-hand corner of iTunes that says, "Drag Album Artwork Here". As of today, it won't let me do it anymore. It says, "No Artwork Available". Do I have to change settings? I already know that I can save images and upload them, but that takes longer.

I noticed this recently too. Either you see "No artwork available" or, if you select multiple items, the box says something like "Multiple items selected." But other times it says "Drag artwork here." I can't make sense of it.
Rest assured you can still drag/drop. There is no need to save the picture first. The trick is to drag/drop onto the artwork box in the Get Info window instead of the left corner of iTunes.

  • Hi there, I have a problem with my iPod Classic (from 2009). Everytime I connect it to my computer (Windows), iTunes does not work anymore. Music is automatically deleted on my iPod. Any suggestions please?

    Thanks, for info, iPod Classic is a slower machine compared the Nano, unfortunately, if you read these discussions, majority of the freezes involved iTunes 10. Although if might be just slow and some impatient user just disconnect the iPod ands cause more problems. ( Yes I also did that but safely by doing a iPod Hard Reset, before disconnecting).
    Here is the Apple support article that may help you.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
    or my usual solution for Windows Users.
    Antivirus has a tendency to freeze iTunes sync Operation with iPod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your iPod filesystem, so when iTunes can't read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
    My suggestion.
    Connect your iPod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your iPod to the PC, using a high speed USB 2.0 port at the back of your PC, do not use any USB Hub.
    When iTunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
    When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
    Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well.
    When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
    Good Luck!

  • Viewing App page in itunes does not work anymore from web broswer link

    When ever I find an app that I would like to view in itunes from a web browser, itunes will not open up that app.  It will ask for my password and then take me to the main itunes page.  It use to go straight to the "want to view" app.

    If you are taking about on your computer, you have an iTunes or browser problem, not an iPod problem.  Migh have better luck in the iTunes forum.
    Do you by chance have scripting turned off for the browser?

  • Docking into stereo does not work anymore.

    Yesterday I updated my iPod touch as iTunes was asking me to do so for several weeks.
    Now, when I dock into my stereo, the sound does not come out of the stereo anymore. Before the update it worked perfect.
    Anyone had the same issue and knows how to resolve.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the tip. After 1 hour searching and trying, I finally succeeded and it works again.
    It's a shame that new version of software are not always better... That is why I normally don't mess with something that works fine.

  • ITunes Match not working anymore!

    So I recently restored my iPhone 5 because of an excessive amount of "other" on it. I have done this before with no problem. I have an iTunes Match subscription and never before has it been affected by the restore process. This time however it is no longer working. My library shows up on my phone, nothing is grayed out, but when I tap on the song it won't play and then it starts skipping through every track. Also my tracks that weren't purchased through the store (tracks I had downloaded from Amazon, uploaded from my CDs, etc) do not show up on my iPhone. The weird thing is that at the top of the songs list where it says how many songs there are, the number keeps spazzing out and changing every second as if it is still counting songs. It's also not letting me download any songs.
    I recently changed my Apple ID email/username/password but it didn't affect my Match account before. I've tried turning Match on and off on both my laptop and iPhone multiple times, I've tried updating...nothing works!
    I know this is a complicated question, but has this happened to anyone else? Please help me if you can!
    My iPhone 5 is running 7.1.2 and my iTunes is 11.3.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    According to Apple's knowledge-based articles, iTunes match is not available in Belgium.
    The terms and conditions of using your US Apple ID states that you must use this service within the boundaries of the US.

  • Why does itunes store not work anymore properly on first generation ipad? could we not expect that apple keeps apps functional on older devices?

    seems apple wants to push us throwing away 3 year old devices or forgets that it needs to maintain apps for them while moving on to new generation definetely frustrating that the app crashes all the time- so no more films or music downloading. also a reset did not help. Frustrating experience

    The Terms and Conditions of the iTunes Store clearly state all sales are final. The person you spoke with may have been told a refund could not be given. They may have contacted the developer of the app who is claiming that the in-app purchase was delivered to you.
    You would have been far better off to have called Apple back rather than switching to Chat. Contact them again, by phone, and ask to speak to a senior advisor and if necessary ask for a supervisor. If you threaten them and say they are cheating you, etc. they will probably disconnect so keep that in mind. They are under no obligation whatsoever to provide you a refund.

I checked the files in the iTunes media folder and they all seem to be ther,e iTunes just won't open them. Help, please? I have the latest version of iTunes and I'm using a 2010 iMac 27" running Mac OS X Lion, the latest version.

  • Itunes i not working anymore

    ok. i was using itunes for a long time and upgrading it like normal but it messed up for some reason. i went to a whole bunch of forums but it didnt help me. can someone help me plz? when i try to open it it says "this action is only for products that are currently installed." i tried to uninstall it but it says "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." what does it mean and can anyone help me?

    Definitely seems to be a cross-platform bug in iTunes 10.5 concerning all NAS disks. Shared libraries on network drives worked fine under 10.4.1, but now there is just an endless loading cycle with no error message or time-out. There is a bit more about it in this thread.

    Hey rmacbeth, I'm sorry to hear about your iPad troubles. It seems like with every major iOS release, these issues come up on older models (the iPad 3 is relatively new though...weird)
    Anyways, it sounds like you've tried everything already and nothing seems to be working. If you're sure that it's a software issue with iOS and has nothing to do with your physical home button, I'd recommend restoring your iPad to factory settings by doing the following:
    1. Make a backup of your iPad (just connect it and select the backup option in iTunes)
    2. Next, select factory restore. It'll ask you to back up your iPad here if you haven't already.
    3. Try quickly setting it up as a new iPad.
    4. Try to duplicate the issue with the freezing, just use it for a day and see if it happens at all
    5. If everything seeems to be working, restore again except this time, do it from the backup you made earlier
    6. Try again to see if the issue comes up by using it normally in a day
    7. If it does happen again, take it in to the Apple store to get it looked at as there may be some underlying software issue that a factory restore can't resolve
    Again, sorry about your iPad, I hope you can resolve your issues quickly!

  • Drag & Drop artwork & Add to Library not working

    Hi all,
    This is only a recent problem, using the latest version of iTunes on my Dell XP PC and I'm upable to drag and drop from Windows Explorer into iTunes. I can add music and artwork into iTunes using the 'Add to Library' option but when I try to drag & drop into iTunes, I get a black circle with a diagonal line through it.
    Drag & drop from windows explorer to say my desktop works fine. Any thoughts?

    Hi Limnos  (your reply has now appeared it must have been a time delay!)
    I've tried this and it has now readded all the old mp3 & M4a files but is not adding the new AIFF files any more.
    I then tried using apple encoder to covert the files and import as M4a but that doesn't work either.
    It's like it doesn't like any of my new folders.
    I've tried applying the 'share'/'permissions' to all subfolders of my music folder where the music is stored but this didn't work either.
    Any other suggestions v welcome as I'm running out of ideas

  • Can't Drag Album Artwork into iTunes

    For some reason I can no longer drag album artwork into iTunes. If I click on a song or on a group of songs and there is no artwork available, I can no longer drag album art to the "Drag Album Artwork Here" in the bottom left corner. Same goes for when I right click and say "Get Info". It will show a little green plus sign as I drag the picture over the drop area but nothing happens.
    I'm running 10.4 and have made sure that I have read and write privledges to all of the specified folders.
    Anyone have any other ideas?

    Where are you dragging the images from? It might just be that particular site, if you're using the same location time and time again. I use Amazon music when looking for album art for iTunes and generally have good luck with it.
    Are you trying to drag artwork for songs that already have artwork associated with them? Sometimes you might want to clear the downloaded artwork for those tracks and then drag in the new image. I've run into this in cases where I've downloaded a single track from iTunes but then used something else to complete the album.
    Beyond those suggestions, you might want to try re-creating your iTunes Library, per the steps in this document. Note that some data may be lost, such as play counts and date added.

  • ITunes shuffle is not working anymore

    iTunes shuffle is not working anymore after downloading latest version. The shuffle button is highlighted but it just plays the next track.

    If you need to change the computer that the iPad is synced to then see this user-tip : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    If you don't have all of your content on a backup that you can copy onto your new computer and into its iTunes (File > Add To Library), then you should be able to copy iTunes purchases from the iPad to it via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases). For content from other sources (e.g. music that you copied form CDs) which you don't have on a backup, there are some third-party programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back from your iPad.

  • While updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    while updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    Disconnect the iPad, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!, reconnect and follow the prompts.
    If that does not work then see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
