Error -60 and No Album Art

So I bought a new cd and burned it to iTunes. (for some reason the track info didn't come up either, but that's not my problem) I started syncing my iPod and it came up saying iPod cannot be synced error -60. I've looked through the forums and saw that supposedly a song is corrupted. Well I only had another album on my iPod since I last synced my iPod so I deleted that album and the one I just burned. I also noticed with the 2 albums I put on my iPod the song will play 2-5 seconds and skip songs. I saw the song that wouldn't sync and created an AAC (or ACC I forgot which it is) and resynced it. Yet another song wouldn't sync. Now these songs that are apparently "corrupt" I've had on my iPod for a long time. I don't know what's up.
I put the cd I burned on my iPod again and it synced, but there's no album artwork. I have it on iTunes, but it's not showing up on the iPod. I tried "get album artwork" (and it found it) and also getting it off the Internet. Neither works.
Also for some reason I can't eject my iPod. It says files are being used, even though iTunes is the only program running. So I have to go into my computer and it still takes 3 tries to eject it. This only started happening 3 days ago, and it's really getting on my nerves.
So here are my questions:
1. Error -60, how can that be fixed
2. Why is my iPod only playing 2-5 seconds in a song and then skipping
3. Why is the album artwork showing in iTunes, but not on my iPod ( This is only for the 2 new albums I've put on my iPod, the rest of the songs still have their artwork)
4. Why can't I eject my iPod without it saying it's in use.
All these problems only started 3 days ago when I synced my iPod for the first time in about a week. Oh btw please don't tell me to restore my iPod, I have over 8,000 songs.
Any help?

I had the same issue and came to the boards for help. Sure enough a simple reboot of the phone did the trick.
As for songs cueing up at the end or in the middle; I've had that same issue but haven't had it for a couple weeks.
I'm hoping that it's been resolved but one thing to try if you haven't already is to remove all playlists and songs then re-sync (a reboot in between might help; I didn't do that but it certainly can't hurt).
Anyway, rebooting your iPhone should fix the album art lock screen issue.
Good luck.

Why can't i directly cut and paste album art

The older I-Tunes was able to cut directly and paste album art pictures, (when the find album album art auto feature failed) I now have to save album images to my hard drive,' Apart from the new coloured (I spell Colored with a "U" as I'm British) icon Red instead of blue the rest of it is just the same

The new iTunes 12 Get Info dialog lacks right-click context menus (at least for now) but it still accepts most standard keyboard shortcuts and drag & drop actions.
Delete Artwork
On the artwork tab of Get Into, tap the image in question, use Backspace or Ctrl+X. Delete doesn't work.
Or, tap the image at the top left of Get Info, this time use Backspace or Delete, it is Ctrl+X that doesn't work.
Add Artwork
Select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the center of the Artwork tab, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Or, select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the small image area at the top left, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Or, you can drag & drop to, or sometimes from, the same locations.
You can also copy artwork from the Get Info dialog to Windows Explorer with the keyboard shortcuts.
If the source image is on a web page right-click and use Copy Image rather than copy. (With Chrome I get a one pixel wraparound so tend to go for a temporary local copy anyway - not sure whose bug this is, but it isn't new.)
If you have multiple images embedded drag the one you want to be the primary artwork to the leftmost position.
Replace/Remove All Artwork
The top left image box can be used to add or delete art from multiple tracks. In either case all existing artwork in all tracks is replaced/removed.
Old Style Get Info Dialog
Select some items, right-click, hold down shift, then click Get Info from the context menu. (Use alt/option on a Mac)
The new icon is the least of the changes.

Small and big album art not matching

I bought an 5G iPod only ten days or so ago, and I have recently finished to transfer all my song database.
I'm seeing something strange happens with the album art. Sometimes I take a look on the screen, and it correctly displays the song info: artist, album, song title and also the small album pic are OK. But when I push the central button to see the enlarged album art, sometimes the album picture I see belongs to a different artist or album that I also have in my library. It also happens the other way around, i.e, if I display the big album pic and then I switch to the artist/title screen.
Does anyone know how can I fix this and why does it happen?
Thanks in advance
Edit: I have just seen that sometimes the work art displayed is plain wrong in both small and big sizes. I have checked on ITunes and the album art is looks fine there, though. Is it possible that something went wrong during my last iPod-iTunes sync?

yeah mine too, and i've tried re-setting it, and wiping it and re-sync ing etc,
still seems to do the same, and is generally rally annoying seeing how it is such a relatively useless feature, it would be nice if it at least worked...!
any ideas..?

Drag and drop album art not working / iTunes 7.0.1.8 & WinXP SP2

Drag and dropping album art isn't working for me after upgrading to iTunes 7 in WinXP SP2. Anyone else experience this problem?
Update: Drag and drop works from a webpage but not from Windows explorer or Windows Picture & Fax Viewer.

You only need an iTunes account to automatically get artwork. Usually artwork for CDs you import yourself is gotten from somewhere else. I tend to use allmusic.com. Occasionally I will have to use google to find the artwork though.
Have never tried to add artwork from anywhere but a webpage though.

The control click and external mouse right click no longer works when copying and pasting album art within itunes. Ex. Hit get info for one song to paste to the rest, copying the artwork wont work when it used to.

Hello there, Teworsham90.

ITunes album view not working and no album art?

Hi all -
Bought a 64GB iPhone 5 and uploaded my music via my desktop - all seems to have run fine, except that album artwork isn't showing for many of them, even when I select the option "View artwork".
I've read on another thread that ID3 tags of 2.3 or lower are not supported, but find it hard to accept there's no compatibility here - so am presuming user error rather than Apple trying to force users to manually update all their albums (I have 57GB of music - don't want to update album art on everything!)
Also, I've just downloaded and installed iTunes on my laptop, and connected the iPhone to laptop. However, the album view options aren't working. All songs are simply listed by album name, but none of the column listing features work either (ie, sort by name, genre, etc).
I presumed iTunes had crashed, but restarting the laptop and the same happens. Am on latest software for iTunes and iOS 6.
One more curiosity - how do I download my music from the iPhone to the desktop? I had presumed it would do this automatically (ie, into the iTunes media folder) but so far nothing.
Or is it simply the case that iTunes is preparing to download all music into the desktop, hence why it's not working properly? Simply because there's no notice of anything happening.
Apologies for any newbie questions - found myself using the iPad quite a lot for apps, but never for music as it was only the 16GB version, so have been sold into joining the Apple walled garden. Would be nice to get these issues sorted out, though.

Hi David
Yes, I found the importer now. I also fixed my problem, but with 'brute force':
For each of the folders not being indexed, including the ~/Library/Mail folder, I turned on Privacy in the Spotlight System Prefs and then turned it off again. This seems to have fixed things. I did this for some old document folders too and that also seems to have worked.
So far so good. thanks again. For now I'm marking this as solved.

New album art feature and the album art screen saver

Hi,
I've been using (and enjoying) the built-in album art screen saver for my locked screen for a long time. A few days after I've updated to iTunes 7, I began to delete old covers of my favorite albums (low resolution, bad color, read: Google image search) and applied the better-looking ITMS covers by selectively using the "get album art" feature.
Since I did that, those favorite albums do not appear in the screen saver rotation anymore.
I'm aware that the downloaded covers aren't saved in-file but in the /Album Artwork folder, so I'm certain that's the problem - the screen saver isn't programmed to look for those.
Now, does a workaround exist for that? Does Apple plan a small update (unlikely) / did anybody write a compatible clone / did anybody found a hack? Unfortunately, it's not in the localizible part of "iTunes Artwork.saver".
Thanks in advance for your help!

Powerbook G4, Jan 06 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1 GB RAM

Same problem that I am having. I enjoyed the album art screen saver. Since I updated to v7 the screen saver doesnt seem to work correctly. Spent the first day of release getting most of my albums (shockingly more then I thought). Enabled the screen saver, but only got 4 albums to show up, no others. Testing it more, I removed the art for the albums that showed up, which got me to 1 album, removed and then got the error that my iTunes Library had no albums with artwork. Weird.. Removed my library, reloaded, and ALL the artwork is gone. Tried going a few albums at a time manually and it shows in iTunes, the new Album Art Dir updates with new stuff. but nothing for the screen saver. Good idea in principle, kinda bad in excuction is my thoughts right now. Hope for a fix soon.

Runtime Error, but only w/ album art

So everytime I and changing my info on a song, like Artist, album etc, i take Album Art from online and drag it into the album art box. This usually works no problem. but now when i do it after i click okay it says Runtime Error C++ something.
the thing is if I take the album art and save it on my computer then drag it from to desktop it works fine.. i dont understand it.
Itunes Version: 7.6.2.9
Ipod Classic Version: 1.1.2 (just update like a few days ago, but i dont think that has anything to do with it)

Nas drive and no album art on the mac

I started all this buying a touch. Then a nas drive netgear nv+ then 1 mac mini then airport extreme and express. I started this itunes on a pc and still have a library 60 cd's on it that is loaded on the nas. I am loading about 4000 cd's on the nas and have started that now with the mac mini(100 more cd's). No artwork shows up and non of the other cd's I loaded on the nas from the pc show up either.
My end result is ti have two or three zones controllable by i phones or touch that have all the music available on the sound systems attached to expresses or mini mac's. I am told I have to have a computor attached to each zone-zone being something I can listen to different than another zone. The netgear nas says it can do this with itunes and I have firefly turned on the itunnes server. I love the touch interface as it is what I want to use. I sell high end audio for a living and need the good sound around the house-all aiff files please help as I have taken the apple plunge and do not want to return to pc
I want the album art to show up and all the albums to show up on any computor of touch or apple tv in the house and be able to play it's own thing.
Thanks

All of my MP3 files already have album art added to them, but even better would be for the Zen to use 'folder.jpg' in the folder of the album as WMP does, if that were possible. That would save the filesize of each file in an album having to be increased by having album art attached to every single one. But album art support in any form at all would be brilliant!

Drag and drop album art in Nokia Music Manager

Hi there, I am just making my first steps with the Nokia Music Manager (NMM). After converting my music files to the m4a format I want to add the album art. There is a little field on the bottom of the screen of the NMM called "Drop graphic here" (don't no exactly the wording - I have the german version). I have tried different ways but nothing happens. What do I do wrong?
Kind regards
netdog63

Hi.
Had the same problem and couldn't find anything anywhere, just stupid workarounds using wmp & itunes and **bleep**.
Solution is very simple
You can only drag'n'drop album art onto songs which are in 'My Collection'.
So... Copy your mp3's to the 'My Collection' view and it should work.
This also enables the 'Edit' function in Nokia Music Manager which lets you edit tags aswell as album art.
Hope this helps...

Grayed out, unplayable songs and missing album art on iPhone after 5.1 update with iTunes 10.6

I have been having these problems on my iPhone since the above updates. First, the grayed out songs: I have my iTunes account set to sync over the air with wifi. I charge my iPhone overnight, but sometimes when I unplug the iPhone in the morning, a great majority of the songs get grayed out and unplayable. I can see the songs listed, but they don't play. I then have to sync the iPhone on my iMac in iTunes to enable all the grayed out songs to be re-copied to the iPhone. As if that isn't inconvenient enough, I now am encountering missing album art for every song on my iPhone. All the album art exists in my iTunes account on my iMac, but I can't get the album art to appear on my iPhone. This literally happened overnight one day ago and I can't figure out how to get the album art back. I do have sufficient storage space on my iPhone, so that possible explanation is eliminated.
Re: the grayed out songs: what is causing this and is there any way to avoid it?
Re: the missing album art: again, what is causing it and how can I restore the art to my iPhone?

Unfortunately, the only solution to this problem was to restore my iPhone. Many hours later, the problem was resolved, but for how long?

Backing up music library and keeping album art

I am getting ready to format my computer and want to make sure that when i am up and running again all i have to do is install itunes and my backed up music over and will be good to go. For alot of my music i had to add my album art manually. I saved the image for the album off the web and than dragged and dropped it into the bottom left hand corner for the album art section in the play list. How can i ensure that i am not going to have to do it all over again when i import my music folder after re-format?

Thanks for the replies guys. I was thinking about actually backing up "my music" folder in "my documents" in Word rather than just copying the tracks, but I don't know how to back up other than by just dropping and dragging the tracks onto a CD. I have searched in Microsoft Office help but there is no reference to backing up. Is burning them onto blank cd's the quickest way? Also if I need to get them back off the cd and put them back onto the computer can that be done and if so how and would it be done using the Creative software or just Explorer or My Computer?

Unable to drag and drop album art

Hi Guys,
I'm unable to drag and drop album artwork since upgrading to windows 7, when hovering over the "drag album art here" box it just displays a no entry cursor.
I've tried dragging and dropping to the desktop first but this doesn't work either.
UAC is currently disabled, my windows user is a computer administrator and has full control privileges on the Music folder.
It's not on all my albums, just certain ones.
I'm using iTunes 9.0.2.25

Make sure your windows userid has full control and ownership over the entire music folder. Check the box to apply this to subcontainers (aka subfolders)
This webpage has directions

You need to restart itunes to read hte new permission settings.

Shutdown function and view album art by Genre..

Is it only me that would find a Shutdown at end of album function useful? When your lying in bed listening to music, i don't want to have to get up and switch my machine off, i want an option in iTunes that will shutdown my machine at the end of the playlist or Album.. any one else think thats useful?
What about viewing Album art via Genre? When you select a Genre, then click on the scroll album art button it shows the whole of your library!?!?! how stupid! i only want the albums in that Genre!
Grr... how many times i've sent that to Apple as a feature request i have no idea... since itunes 5 i think!! C'MON!

Please add your computer info to your profile using the My Settings link on the right side of the page.
I don't know about Windows, but on a Mac, there is a scheduled sleep/shutdown option in the Energy Saver Preference pane.. There are also quite a few free and cheap options available for download that can do it. If you're on Windows, you might look around to see what options you have.
When you select a Genre, then click on the scroll album art button it shows the whole of your library!?!?! how stupid! i only want the albums in that Genre!
Not sure where you're selecting the Genre, but if you're talking about the Browse option (the eye icon), when you switch to CoverFlow view, you are no longer Browsing, you are in CoverFlow.
If you switch between the different views (List, AlbumArt, CoverFlow) you'll notice that the Browse function is disabled for CoverFlow.
Of course, you could always create Smart Playlists to group your songs by Genre which would eliminate the need to rely on the Browse function.
