Embedded Album Art not Displaying Showing in Windows Explorer

Trying To Clean up my Music Collection using windows explorer. Embedding album art works fine for MP3's yet it is not replacing the (film/file/musicnote/baloon/) icon for Mpeg4 - M4A files.
What annoying is that the embedded art may be present but I can't tell just by looking at the individual files. how can I get confirmation outside of loading up itunes?
is it possible for me to get the embedded art to display in place of the file icon in windows explorer for these file types? if so, how?

It only happens wih some files, and I can't seem to find out what the correlation is.
If I take a series of mp3s where the album art cannot be displayed in iTunes but can in MediaMonkey or, extract the album art from the the tag through MediaMonkey (iTunes artwork fetching usually gives me poor results), and then assign the album art through iTunes, yes the album art does appear to be saved and displayed through iTunes. But that's a process.
Additionally, if I reassign the artwork in MediaMonkey (not readding it, just reapplying the assignment to all selected items) the artwork will show up in iTunes.
I'm going to play around with Mp3Tag and see if that yields anything.

Album art not displaying correctly

Help! I hate that my album art is displaying incorrectly. I have podcast covers on album and music albums on podcasts. What is really strange is if I have a rental movie on some of my songs display stills from that film!?
What can I do to rectify this?

Tried this and it does not work. I don't think there should be a problem, but there are two albums that have the same name from different artists. The artwork for the other artist with the same album title is displaying.
I am also running synergy 3.0 and it displays the correct album art. When I try to import that correct art into itunes, it does not replace the wrong artwork.

Some album art not displaying in

I have the latest firmware release (.60.0). After either syncing via an app or simply dragging and dropping via Media Explorer, some album art does not display properly in my ZVM in the Album art view nor when the song is played. The method I used is embedding the image directly in the MP3 tags. I only use the MP3 format.
I love my ZVM!

It sounds as if I had the same problem, which bugged the **** out of me, until about 10 minutes ago. I mucked around for ages with iPad and iPhone with some success before they would reset themselves to some odd settings i.e. artwork not matching correct album, couldn't delete songs from iPhone etc.! Very frustrating.
So tonight I did the following:
1. I have Homesharing turned ON as i use iPad/iPhone as a remote;
2. on iPad and/or iPhone make sure that the device(s) is signed into your Home Share - appleID is completed in "Settings"/"Music";
3. on iPad go to Music (orange icon, not in Settings) and press "More" then "Shared" and choose your host machine's library and NOT "My iPad". Same for iPhone too.
Hope that helps,
Matt

Some album art not displaying

I have the 80gb model and recently I did that thing where you erase all the album art and reload it to fix some that were showing up as black boxes. But then I found that now a good chunk of my album art won't display at all. For those songs all the song data instead of being centered is right justified but there's no album art. I narrowed it down and I found that this is only happening to art where I pasted the art into the song data. I would really like to know how I can get this fixed without having to redo all of my album art.
I did already try doing a reset but that didn't help.

I have the 120 GB iPod Classic. Some artwork was not illustrated, only a black square was showing.
I solved the problem as follows:
With iPod connected to PC, select all the songs of the affected album. Right click to obtain "Get Info" for the complete album. The artwork panel should be blank, so click the box beside artwork panel. Press "OK". This will put a blank &, more importantly, clear the defective/corrupted artwork in the iPod.
Repeat the process, select all the songs of the affected album, Right click to obtain "Get Info", then paste the good artwork into the panel. Click all the boxes of all relevant data & press "OK". The good artwork will be entered. You can disconnect the iPod from the PC to check that the artwork is now showing correctly. This worked for me on a number of albums which had the black square showing.
Good Luck

Album Art not displaying in iTunes

I have several mp3s where the album art does not display in iTunes, it does, however, display when I use other software such as MediaMonkey or foobar2000. The album artowork is stored in the tag. I've tried retagging them within iTunes, but it doesn't always work and is a time consuming process. I've also tried removing the ID3v1 tag portion from the file and leave just the ID3v2.3 tag, but no success either. Any thoughts?

It only happens wih some files, and I can't seem to find out what the correlation is.
If I take a series of mp3s where the album art cannot be displayed in iTunes but can in MediaMonkey or, extract the album art from the the tag through MediaMonkey (iTunes artwork fetching usually gives me poor results), and then assign the album art through iTunes, yes the album art does appear to be saved and displayed through iTunes.

Zen Vision : M - Album Art not displaying and other probl

Hi,
I bought a Zen Vision : M from Hong Kong last week and of course the first thing I did when I got home was install all the software that came with it and started uploading songs.
The player is great and I love it but there are just two annoying little things.
Two problems I encountered.
. I uploaded the album art using the Media Explorer by clicking and draging the JPEG into the explorer as instructed, sometimes the album art shows on the player and for some albums, it just won't show on the player, however it shows correctly on the explorer. Has anybody else experienced the same thing?
Is there going to be a new firmware to fix that?
2. Sometimes after closing all the Creative applications and explorers, it still does not release the player. It still saids that it is docked. I have to either shut down the computer or manually pull the USB cable out which is something I don't want to do if it is still transferring information between the player and the PC... In the next firmware, there should be an option to undock the player.
Also the website claims to have all these accesories such as the docking station and leather case for the player but I cannot find any online store that has it!?! I have searched the Europe online stores and Asia online shops yet I cannot find it. Where would I be able to find it's As I am always afraid that the connector that comes with the player will break as it feels quite fragile.

The undocking issue are you sure the arrows are still moving. I made that mistake when I first got the vision M. I thought it was still updating.
The arrows stay still when you can remove the Vision M and kinda rotate, actually move when you are tranferring songs.
Looks similar.
As for the album art ill try that today and get back to you.

Album Art Not Displaying/Disappearing

I've had the iTouch for a week & all of a sudden most of the album art disappeared from the iTouch. I synced again, some came back but much of the album art does not display even though it's in the iTunes library. Also, album art is duplicated for other/different artists. What's happening? Any solutions?

This is also happening to me.
First the album art vanished, and then I would resync, and the album art would go to different albums.
my Breaking Benjamin album art went on my Frank Sinatra album, and my Gnarls Barkley album.
My 50 Cent album art went to the Brad paisley album, and the Rufus Wainwright album .This is doing this, even after I updated the iPod.

Album art not displaying in Feature Box

I have create three Collections of the past three years of an event on campus. Each has album art loaded. I then created a Feature Box to display these three collections. However the album art does not display for the feature box (called Collaboration Technology). If I click on one of the Collections within the Features box it will display the art.
Any suggestions as to why the art is not displaying?

Greetings!
Can you post a link to the Collection you're having an issue with?

Album Art not displayed on all songs for Album

I have an iPod touch and before I got it, I made sure I had album art on all of the albums, by starting a song and then dragging artwork image. Naturally now, only track 1 per album has the album art.
How can I make sure that when I drag album art that the WHOLE album displays the art, instead of only one song having the art and all the others having the standard eighth-note background? Thank you.

Get Info on the entire album, and drag the art to the Artwork pane in the lower right.

Has any body Got this problem and know A solution?
Thanks

I have had the same issues. It all started with iTunes 7.0. I have lost all track numbers as well, so now all my songs are in ABC order. It really *****!!
The only way I have been able to fix the artwork issue is to cut the artwork off of the file the re-paste it back on. (I have over 3,000 tracks, very time consuming) This has worked for most of the files but I am still coming across a few tracks that have the incorrect artwork on them.

PDF (metadata) is not displayed in WIN7 Windows Explorer

The PDF Tab (metadata) does not get displayed (such as: Title, Author, Subject, Keywords) when viewed in Win7 Windows Explorer.
This information is displayed when you view the Properties information via Adobe Reader (v9.4).
This is causing issues with our document management.
When looking around at various blogs this is all I have found:
Adobe implemented in pdfshell.dll an ActiveX interface called IColumnProvider, and Microsoft dropped support for this interface in Windows Vista (replacing it with something called the Property System). So, the PDF Title column feature didn't go away with Windows7, it went away with Windows Vista. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776831%2 8VS.85%29.aspx
Has pdfshell.dll been updated to provide the Property System interface that Vista and Windows 7 require? See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776859 %28v=VS.85%29.aspx
Has anyone else experience this and is there a valid work around?

Hi Bernd,
I use Adobe reader XI and metadata is not very friendly, if i have no metadata in explorer it's annoying but if acrobat reader is showing wrong information in file properties there must be something to do to clarrify the situation.
NB:
What i've tried
Adding keywords with exiftools (works good for other tags), result ok when viewing properties with evince, but not with adobe reader (; subject in place of ; keyword)
So i erased xmp metadata and retried, job done!
Does someone can explain howto solve this problem because i'm not in favor of deleting adobe pr*sm informations
http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/index.html
What i found is for myself => RTFM as extracting the tags should be done with the -g (with group) option to avoid problems when writing back.
Result is ok no more mix.
Thanks for reading,
Gilles

Embedded Album Art

So I have read the various threads about the issues and very lengthy work arounds for album art not displaying for all tracks when using iTunes Match on the iPhone...
I took a lot of time up embedding album art into each track to see if this would resolve the issue where album art only initially displays on the first track of each album. Obviously, I am aware that the artwork will download as each track is played but this would mean carrying this process out for every track in my iPhone, which is ridiculous!
My questions then...
Is apple going to patch iTunes Match somehow to resolve this?
Or... Is there another way to force my iPhone to download album art for every track without performing such a time consuming task as mentioned above
(I have tried deleting and re downloading an album on my iPhone but the issue remains).
Thanks in advance.

The iTunes Match service will inevitably evolve - however, the current version does frustrate many with today's performance.
For iPhone 4S perhaps the simplest route at present is to use standard playlists built on the Computer library - view on the iPhone - scroll to end and select 'download all' option when on stable Wi-Fi network.

Album Art not showing up?

Has anyone else had a problem with their album art not showing up in coverflip? These are all CD's that I own and ripped onto my computer with iTunes, and if I look at them in iTunes I can see the cover art. But when I turn my ipod sideways to flip through the albums, I see a bunch of black squares. Some of the albums I can see the artwork when it's not the selected album, but if I scroll to it, the art disappears and it's just an empty black square. The only albums where this seems to work properly are the ones I bought and downloaded digitally through iTunes, but most of my music collection is CD's, so I'm really hoping there's a way to fix this.
I've already tried googling pictures of the album art and re-tagging the songs with the picture on there, and it does do a sync afterwards, but I'm still seeing black squares. I also tried deleting one of the albums from my ipod entirely, and reloading it, and that worked the first time I went into coverflip, but in subsequent tries it has reverted back to being just a black square.

use the search discussions box. there are loads of threads on this. you definitely aren't alone
the only real solution i've seen is to re-sync the problem tracks, i've probably missed some though, so it's worth looking around.

Itunes album artwork not displayed

I have just started using itunes and purchased my fist album which is a compilation. The album artwork is not displayed, I have searched the forum and checked that the get artwork is visible in the get info option, which it is and all the album details are correct.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if I have the same problem or not. My album art work shows up fine on the i-pod and in the small "now playing" window on the lower left of my pc but the main view window shows that "Itunes is unabke to browse album covers on this computer". I was always able to view this for as long as I have had the i-pod in the past before but now cant. On my PC (I tunes)the "Cover flow view" is selected and no matter what preference is selected the same message comes up and can not see album art work anymore on main window above song list.

Lost embedded album art after iTunes 11 upgrade

I just spent 6 months embedding album art into my music files and movie files. Pre-iTunes 11, all album art was displayed. After upgrading to iTunes 11, every album and movie starting with the letter A and B has no album art. I used purchased Mac apps to embed album art into my files, so I know it is there. Can somebody from Apple please fix this bug? Maybe in the next iTunes update, can Apple fix the issue with iTunes not showing embedded abum art. I am not talking about added album art, I am talking about purchasing an App to use and actually embedding album art into my music and movie files from my own personal purchased content. Please somebody look into this and fix in the next update? If I got into Finder and navigate to my iTunes music/movies folder, the movie/music file is there with the embedded album art. So, this proves to me that there is a bug in iTunes 11 that prevents it from displaying album art for every piece of content that starts with the letter A and B. Please fix?

I have the exact same problem. I've found that for movies, if I choose "Get Info" for each movie and then click on the "Artwork" tab, my cover art is still there and I just have to select it and it restores it for the movie. I haven't checked with music, as most of my music art is fine. This is a pain as I have a couple hundred movies that I have to do this for (uuuggghhhhh), but at least it's a fix.
