Front Row not displaying all Album Art

Hi, I recently bought a Macbook Pro and imported all the music I had to it. I started downloading all the album arts for all my albums, and finally placed them all in order. They look perfect in iTunes in Coverflow.
Then, when I started Front Row, I noticed that not all of my songs displayed an Album Art, only some of them. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

How can I display all album art of my library in iTunes

All my music tracks in my library contain the respective album art within their ID3-tags and it is perfectly displayed in the lower left corner window when I select or play a track.
What I really would like to do is to browse through my library using the album art, not the text-based endless lists (title, album, interpret, genre etc.), then click on a cover, see the tracks and select one.
Is there a feature in iTunes already that can do that or a plug-in somewhere in the market ? (I do not need a tool that collects album art like eyejamz, but a tool to display the art I already have)
Thanks a lot for any feedback

Bakergirl,
You can use iTunes to remove the beginning or end of a song (or both) by setting the Start and Stop times.
But to remove a section from the middle and keep the rest, you will need an audio editor such as Audacity.

Zen Not Displaying ANY Album Art via

Hello, I love my 8gb Zen and always use WMP to sync songs. Everything was fine untill a few weeks ago. I formatted my player via WMP then tried adding songs to it and none of them had album art after that WHY? So frustarting. I'v tried many times and still no art. When I use the Zen sync (offical creative software) it gives art but many mistakes and repeat album arts. Not good. I don't want to add individual album art via a program since it would take forever.
any help is greatly apprciated ?

This also happened to me. Though I did a sync over the weekend, to remove a few albums and add a couple of new ones, and some of the old albums were updated and they have album art but not all. I'm guessing it's something to do with WMP but I'm not sure, as long as the music plays fine I can li've without album art.

How come itunes does not get all album arts works reply asap thanks

like for
kayne west- graduation album
it doesnt download the album artwork for it
but for others it gets it
i mean the album is already in itunes store
whats going on
can you link me the contact page for itunes store

iTunes will connect to Apple's servers to get the album art. As for iTunes not getting the art for all your albums, I don't know why this happens. Usually this happens if the albums are not on the iTunes store - but your case seems to be different.
Here's what I do: If you really want your cover art, you can use Google's image search to manually download it. In iTunes' grid view, right-click on the album in question, click "Get Info" and then say "Yes". In the Info tab, double click on the white box under "Artwork" (in the lower right corner) and manually navigate over to your artwork file. Select it, press open or double click, then click OK. Since you selected the whole album, iTunes will embed the artwork into all the files on your album. The next time you sync, it will also appear on your device(s).
Have a good time getting your artwork! Hope this helps
Edit: There may be times when iTunes will not edit your files after you click OK. This may be a problem with the permissions of the folder where your files are located. Let me know if this happens.

Front Row not displaying shared libraries

On my 13" MBP I can't get any shared libraries to show up under Sources. I've got it narrowed down to my specific account because on my fiance's 13" MB they do show up. Same if I create a new user on my computer they show up as well. I've disabled firewall and WaterRoof (unix firewall) to no avail. I've searched the internet over and while this seems to be a fairly common problem I've found no answers. I'm guessing some .plist somewhere is bad. I've deleted the FrontRow folder in Application Support under my user and no luck there.
For some background I'm running a MacMini with iTunes sharing enabled. Again a new account on my computer or my fiance's MB can access this source no problems. Anyone have suggestions on where I can focus on this problem? I checked Console and Front Row is tossing up no errors for Front Row. I'd really like to get this working. Any one got ideas? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did enable sharing and looking for sharing on both machines. I also have disabled the OS X firewall and the unix firewalls on both machines. I also uninstalled Flip4Mac and Perian on both machines. Still doesn't work. And again it does work OK if I create a new account on my MBP and also works on my fiance's MB with no modifications. Something is set up somewhere on my specific user in OS X on my machine. I'm at a loss what that could be.

IPad doesn't display correct album art

I could really use some help here, I am at the end of my rope. I have HomeSharing on so that my iPads and iPhones will play music and movies from our iTunes library. I have an iPhone 5, an iPhone 4S, an iPad 4 and (2) iPad 2 models. Both iPhones and the iPad 4 will display the correct album art in the movies but the iPad 2's scramble up the album art. For instance on the iPad 4 shows the Aladdin album art where it says Aladdin is but on the iPad 2 (both of them) it will display random album art. So you'll be looking at a picture of Bug's Life but the line states that the movie is Aladdin. Now when you select that movie and it enters the info page where the play button is, the album art comes up correctly. It's just in the title screen or selection screen this happens. Then to add to that, the music and music videos all displays fine, the correct album art every time. For some reason, this is only happening in the movies. And again, only happening on the iPad 2's. There is no issue with the newer iPad or the iPhones. So is this a setting that is goofed? A software issue that I can't resolve? I would appreciate any input you can provide, especially if you can help me fix this!!
FYI, the iPad 2's are my daughter's so I have the PG restriction on making sure that they can't watch anything PG-13 or over. Although it won't display a PG-13 or over movie, it will display the album art (for instance it will show Hills Have Eyes instead of Aladdin although the text shows Aladdin and again, if you click on it the correct album art shows Aladdin in the info screen). I thought maybe the restrictions were the problem so I shut them off but that didn't resolve the issue.

Me Too. Glad to hear I'm not alone in this...
I can't explain it. All my songs show the correct art in iTunes but it's often mismatched on the Nano. I've noticed that selecting a problem track in iTunes, get info and clicking "ok" on the already correct art, sometimes corrects the issue (for that one track) on the Nano after the next sync.. but not always.
p.s. Other posts say "restore" is the answer. I'll try that tonight.

Problems displaying SOME album art for Home Movies in iTunes 11.1.4

I have a number of home videos in my iTunes 11.1.4 library on my Mac. I have manually added album art to each video, but only about half the movies actually show the album art when viewing the movies from the Home Videos tab in iTunes. The other half of the movies just show a frame of the movie. I double checked Get Info for the movies that aren't displayed the album art and confirmed that the album art is listed. All the album art I uploaded is of the same size and file type. Not sure why half the art displays and half doesn't. Anyone else see this before? I'm puzzled.
Thanks

I don't know if you got your answer this this post is from about 3 months ago. I've also been having the same issue.
On my end, I've been keeping all of my movie files on an external drive and just as your situation, only some of them appear and some of them are missing. I don't know if it's as a result of having them on an external drive and anytime I launch iTunes, it's not always plugged in. I'd have to do a bit more testing on that.
I did notice that as soon as I select the "Get Info" on a movie file with missing artwork and confirm that it's there in the metadata by just clicking "ok", it appears automatically in the iTunes window. Seems like a quick and easy solution for now, but not so if you have 300+ movies and you have to do the step for every other one.
If you figured out a solution for this or what worked for you, I'd be glad to hear it.

Albumart.py - displays mpd album art

I love ncmpcpp but, sadly, it does not display all the beautiful album art I've collected. So I wrote this little Python script (75 lines) that does just that.
Here's a demo: http://a.pomf.se/wlozbq.mp4
It monitors mpd and searches for an image in the directory of the currently playing file, but you have to tell it mpd's music directory (MUSICDIR). You set PATTERN as how your album art is named, in globbing format. In my case that's Folder.* for Folder.jpg or Folder.png
It also needs a default image (DEFAULTIMG) in case it doesn't find any album art.
It then displays that image and scales it to the window size. The image proportions are kept, so it might fill some space with a background color that you can set (BGCOLOR).
Close the window to quit.
It requires python-mpd2 from the AUR, python-pillow and tk. I'm not an enterprise programmer so forgive me if the code is shitty. In any case, it's simple and light.

Since that simple script of r6 was so helpful for me, I thought it only fair for me to provide my tweak to it.
Mods:
* Fetched from albumart.org
* Uses directory path for search information
* downloads larger image instead of thumbnail
* works with find -exec {} to auto populate all directories
Here is a link to my simple write up
I just run the following in the root of my music directory
find . -type d -exec ./get_coverart {} \;
And a copy of the script
#!/bin/bash -e
# get_coverart.sh
# This simple script will fetch the cover art for the album information provided on the command line.
# It will then download that cover image, and place it into the child directory.
# The term "album information" is really the relative path of the final directory.
# get_coverart <relative-path>
# get_coverart Tonic/Lemon Parade
# get_coverart Tonic/Lemon\ Parade
# get_coverart Tonic/Lemon_Parade
# To auto-populate all directories in the current directory, run the following command
# find . -type d -exec ./get_coverart "{}" \;
dpath="$1"
encoded="$(perl -MURI::Escape -e 'print uri_escape($ARGV[0]);' "$dpath")"
# Skip already processed ones
if [ -f "$dpath/cover.jpg" ]
then
echo "$dpath/cover.jpg already exists"
exit
fi
echo ""
echo "Searching for: [$1]"
url="http://www.albumart.org/index.php?srchkey=$encoded&itempage=1&newsearch=1&searchindex=Music"
echo "Searching ... [$url]"
coverurl=`wget -qO - $url | xmllint --html --xpath 'string(//a[@title="View larger image" and starts-with(@href, "http://ecx.images-amazon")]/@href)' - 2>/dev/null`

Displaying ipod album art in itunes

I have a question about the iPod's display of album art in iTunes when it is plugged into my computer. I had been getting really frustrated for the better part of the evening after adding a bunch of album art to my music, updating it on the iPod (I do manual update so I dragged the songs onto the iPod after adding the art), and then clicking on them in the iPod's library in iTunes only to see that there was no album art there. What gives?
However, I realized that I was getting annoyed for no reason when I checked it out in the iPod itself, after I disconnected it. All of the album art is there.
So here is the strange behavior I have observed this evening: if I had to go out on the internet and find cover art myself, and add it manually to the files in iTunes, it displays in the iPod's library in iTunes. If iTunes helpfully went out and found the cover art for me automatically, it does NOT display in the iPod library in iTunes (although it is actually there when you go to play the music on the disconnected iPod). I went through the iPod's library in iTunes and this is consistently what is happening.
Obviously this isn't a life-or-death kind of situation, but I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this behavior or knows why this happening. For what it's worth, my entire iTunes library is on an external hard drive, and all of my music is on there in the same place. Do you think iTunes is storing the art in separate places depending on whether I added it or it found it on its own? Would this even matter? I am very curious about this. Thanks for any insight anyone has for me.
5g iPod (video) 80 GB Mac OS X (10.4.8) iTunes 7

when i play the music on the iPod the albums show up
no problem... but when the iPod is connected to
iTunes, and i'm browsing my ipod via itunes, only
some album art shows up...
IE: beck guero, has album art in the itunes library,
it also has the art on the ipod if i play it with the
ipod disconnected from my mac. it DOES NOT show album
art when connected to itunes and view the ipod within
itunes...
whats the deal? some albums are just fine, but the
vast majority of them dont display the art while in
itunes... again, if i disconnect the ipod and view
them on the ipod, there is no problem all albums
display.
any help is appreciated.
Just so you know, you're not going crazy and you're not the only one that's seeing this. I'm seeing the same behavior with a 30GB 5G iPod and iTunes7 under Windows XP.

Why does front row not have simple organization?

I currently have a hard drive hooked into my macmini which is hooked up to my TV. On my hard drive I have over 1000 movies, all purchased through iTunes. However when I use front row and i goto the movie section, I have to scroll through every movie to get to the one I want. There's no way to scroll by letter, only one by one. This is horrible and takes forever. Can apple do an update that makes the right button on the apple remote for scrolling letter by letter. For example, you click the right button to goto movies starting with B, C, D, E, F, etc. Then the down button for one by one scrolling. Also, why does front row not have genres? AppleTV does. Why not incorporate that into front row? Think, Apple, Think.

You can have sub-folders in the Movies folder and arrange your movies alphabetically that way.
But if you want to alert Apple to your idea, then use this link:

I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
Is this iPhoto on your Mac? Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11? If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

Filter not displaying all values

When I attempt to filter a product code. the drop down list (under heading Expression) displays about 100 codes when in reality there are about 2000 values.
I have changed the Maximum Rows per Page under Search Bar to 2000, but this still does not display all the codes.
Is there a setting I am missing?

I think that your description of the problem doesn't help a lot. Are you using interactive reports?

Hi, Does anyone know how to get all album art to import from Itunes.

My Itunes Library/Media states that all album art is present and accounted for but when I sync with Itunes half of my album art on the Ipad is blank.

Hi WIll_Maveric
To get album art to an album on iTunes:
Go to iTunes
Right Click on the album you want to get the art for
Click album artwork
If the songs/album can be found on the iTunes database it will add automatically
If the songs/album cannot be found on the iTunes database it will not add automatically, so I would suggest you go to the internet find the image.
Copy it and then go into iTunes
Right click on the album/song
Click on Get Info
Click on Artwork
Paste the image into the box (Command v) or (Control v)P
Then click OK
Go to your device and sync it again
You will have the artwork there.
Many Thanks for your question and allowing me to help you today.

Form does not display all records from table

Hi guys
I modified one form that was based on a signle DB table. I removed certain fields from the table and added some extra fields to that table. Then based on the new table I also modified the form and removed the text items related to old fields in the table and added new text items pointing to the new fields now. II have checked all the new items properties and they have don't seem to be wrong or so. But now the problem is the form does not display all the records from the table. before it used to display all records from the table when qureied but not now. It only certain records from the table containing all new data and also old data but the form does not display other records though I don't see any obvious discrepancy. Remember that the before doing the modifications, I have table back for the old, created another table that contained new records for the new fields, and then I inserted the old records and updated the new table data in the new table with these new table values. So this way I have got my new table. Could someone help why the new modified form fails to display all records from the new table updated table though it display some of them successfully.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

hi
Set the block property of "Query All Records" to "YES"
hope it will work.

c. Number of Rows (Item): empty
d. Max Row Count: empty
2. Fill the table on which the report is based with 17 rows
3. Go to the 2nd page of the report , pagination rows 16-17 of 17
4. Remove 2 rows from the table, refresh report
5, The pagination shows now 1 - 15 of 15 rows
- no rows displayed
- no "previous button" ( only )
- no way to get the rows displayed, except logging out and in again
Any suggestions?

Hello,
i encountered the same problem while developing in HTMLDB.
In application builder, i select application Application 106, then click on items, then click next ( the application has 22 global items). Now i want to take a look at the global items in application 105 (there are only 5). In the menu i click Builder - Application 106, select application 105 from Available Applications, click Go and Items. It shows no rows, but says that is displaying rows 1-5, and offers a Next button. No way to see/modify the items unless make a new session or go back to Application 106, Click Previous to see the first page of global items and then again switch to Appication 105 or click to the next button and then manually set pg_min_row=1 in URL.
One more question - is this forum the right place to report bug suspicions, or is there some other special place for that?
Best regards,
Andres
