Fuzzy cover art scroll bar
Just recently got my Black Macbook Core 2 Duo with 2 Gig Ram and a 160 Gig HD. After I installed my music library into iTunes, the left-right scroll bar in cover art display has become quite fuzzy. A quit and restart solves it temporarily, but it also returns after some play time. Never happens with our Core Duo MacBook Pro. I see some others posted a similar question without response. Is this fuzziness the product of the integrated video card in the MacBook? I sure hope not - I would have hoped better for its capabilities than that!
I'm also on a Core 2 Duo MacBook and have this same problem. I'm running 10.4.8 on my MacBook and my older, G5-powered iMac. I don't have the problem on the iMac.
I also sometimes see the categories atop each column (song, artist, rating, etc.) run together and become unreadable. A simple quit and restart of iTunes always fixes the problem, but it does always return.
Could this be an Intel systems only problem?

Fuzzy iTunes cover art scroll bar
Just recently got my Black Macbook Core 2 Duo with 2 Gig Ram and a 160 Gig HD. After I installed my music library into iTunes, the left-right scroll bar in cover art display has become quite fuzzy. A quit and restart solves it temporarily, but it also returns after some play time. Never happens with our Core Duo MacBook Pro. I see some others posted a similar question under iTunes without response. Is this fuzziness the product of the integrated video card in the MacBook? I sure hope not - I would have hoped better for its capabilities than that!
I also have noticed the fuzzy Coverflow bar on my 1.83 cd macbook. It occurs intermittently in both my library and the itunes store. Also, the column headers (Artist, Genre, Song) sometimes refresh incorrectly so I am left with big black unreadable blobs. This is corrected if I switch back and forth from Coverflow. None of my other macs have either of these issues. Itunes is the only program I've used that displays these graphical anomolies. My initial guess is that it had to do with the gma950, although why it would only happen with itunes, I do not know.

Cover Flow Scroll Bar is Blurry
Hey,
In cover flow, I notice that the scroll bar is blurry. I've found a temporary fix for it by resizing the cover flow window which resets the horizontal scroll bar to a clear, crisp image. However, as soon as you go back to whatever source (Libary, or any of my playlists) you were originally in, the scroll bar appears blurry again.
Does anyone else have this problem, and know a way to fix it?It happened to me too, right after I went into full screen mode and scrolled. It was fine before that. Here's a screenshot: http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e135/aqua-star/Picture4.png

Why does my cover flow scroll bar look like THIS?
here you can see how very often the scrollbar looks like. is there any known reason for that? when I change the size of the cover flow part of the window it changes back to normal. but very often, even in full screen view, the scroll bar looks this blurred...
any suggestions?
thanks,
bensch

ITunes 7.3 update fixes fuzzy coverflow scroll bar!
Good news, it seems the latest update has fixed the unsightly fuzzy/blurry/pixellated scroll bar! Before you had to resize the iTunes window to get it to return to its sleek smooth appearance but since installing the update this morning my Coverflow is beautiful again!
Some people had mentioned this might be something to do with the graphics driver/card in the MacBook as this problem was not occurring on MacBook Pro's or iMac's etc...
Hopefully everyone else is seeing the same?While I'm waiting a bit before I get an iPhone, I did want to get 7.3 installed. And when I did, my Cover Art also began to disappear, and those disappearing were definitely non-iTunes purchased tracks. Moreover, I could not re-paste Album Covers back into those same tracks. So 7.3 does have a bug regarding Cover Art.
As an aside and since Cover Flow, for me, will be an important aesthetic to enjoying iTunes on an iPhone, I will not get an iPhone until 7.3 is sorted out. ...I don't want to hassle with my iTunes Cover Art and an iPhone through some software updates. So, I prefer to wait until this software bug is eliminated. (I hope Apple is aware of this bug, by now.)
I was able to revert back to iTunes 7.2 (from a backup) and all my Cover Art was reintroduced back into my viewing of the non-iTunes purchased tracks. So, 7.3 does not delete those Album covers, but for some reason will not show or allow paste. Once reversion back to 7.2 was completed, my iTunes Cover Flow was just as it had been prior to installing 7.3.
I'm now looking for 7.3.x.

Blurry Scroll Bar in Cover Flow. Help?
Well... i've had my new macbook for about 3 weeks. have about 100 songs in there so far. on itunes. today my friend sent me mp3 files and the moment i got them i put them in itunes. the problem is i discovered that after putting the songs on itunes, the scroll bar on the cover flow became blurry.
i quit itunes and started it again and the scroll bar was normal again. but then i went into the itunes store and came back to my music, in cover flow and the scroll bar was blurry again.
what does this mean? VIRUS?
obviously something is not steady here. any words? thanks.This definitely isn't a show-stopper, but it is annoying (Don't fret -- its not a virus. Nor does it have anything to do with your Music collection.). I have the same glitch with Cover Flow. I've found its relatively easy to (temporarily) fix: all you need to do is resize the iTunes window (by just 1 pixel will do).
Hopefully this is more permanently fixed in a future version of iTunes.
For those who are wondering what I'm talking about, when I open iTunes in Cover Flow mode the horizontal scroll bar (slider) is nice and crisp. However, if I switch to another application, or simply click into another section of iTunes (like Movies, or the iTunes Store) and then click back to my Library of Music, the Cover Flow horizontal scroll bar often appears fuzzy, or blurry. Resizing the iTunes window temporarily fixes the glitch (at least, until I switch sections again).
Here's a screenshot comparing the crisp and blurry scrollbars:

Cover Flow does not show song title or scroll bar
Cover Flow only shows a distorted "box" instead of the song info and the scroll bar. Why is this?

I went to show off to a neighbor how cool it is and it was broken
no scroll bar ?
I re-installed 7.2 with no resolve -
Blurry Scroll Bars on Cover Flow
I know this has been posted last month, but no one answered it. Is there any fix to the blurry scroll bars in iTunes? It's a little embarrassing to have my cool Apple look gross in iTunes...
Thanks!Yay! iTunes 7.3 fixed the blurry bars!
Cool. -
The black scroll bar in album cover art view seems to get blurry many times. A simple fix to this problem is simply resizing the cover art view, but does anyone know why this happens?

Problems concerning sonata playlists and freevo cover art
Hi!
I'm setting up a media center PC and I'm having some problems with the playlists created by sonata. Another problem I have is not getting freevo to download cover art.
First: When ever I try to make a playlist through the "Current" tab in Sonata it creates a m3u file with every song that's listed in the current window. I'm used to being able to pick one or a couple of songs and then adding it a specified playlist. Is this impossible in sonata? And if I try to play the m3u file created (the one with every song listed) through freevo I get a message that the directory is empty. What am I doing wrong??
Second: I'm having big problems getting freevo to download cover art to my music. I can download info on movies from imdb, but info for the music doesn't work. I store the cover art downloaded by sonata in the different album folders and these covers show up in freevo. But if I have to play every new song i download first in sonata to get the cover art working in freevo I'll go crazy. It's supposed to work the same way in freevo as in sonata isn't it???
It also seems that mplayer can't play m3u files. Using the mentioned sonata made m3u file in mplayer does nothing. Mplayer starts but nothing happens.
My goal is to be able to make playlists through sonata and then play these lists using freevo. I don't want to get up from the couch.

It's clearly not impossible, just different than you expect. Create your playlist as you want it to appear in the Current tab (meaning don't dump every single song from your library in there, just the ones you want) and then save the playlist.

Scroll bar and episodes bouncing up and down in podcasts
Hi all,
I'm running Windows 7 Pro and iTunes 11.4. The scroll bar on the episodes side of the screen when in My Podcasts will not scroll down past the first visible subscribed podcasts without "bouncing" back to the top. If I can get it down to a podcast below the first visible and click on it, the episodes side of the screen starts doing the same for that podcast. It also won't let me refresh and download new episodes when this is happening. Any ideas on what is going on? Anyone have the same issue, and if you did, how did you fix it?
ThanksHey there Fuzzy Goat,
It sounds like your iTunes application isn't functioning correctly when you are in Podcasts. I would start by checking to see if there are any plug-ins that could be interfering with the application itself:
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
If that is not the case, or that does not resolve the issue I would next uninstall iTunes completely and then re install it using the following article:
Remove and Reinstall iTunes and other software components from Windows XP
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Scroll bars & creating buttons problem
I am trying to create a basic photo browser. The upper area is the enlarged view of the image. The lower portion is a scrollable view of the thumbnails in the directory chosen. I have most of it working...except that the scrollable view doesn't scroll, and the buttons that I created don't cause the image to show up in the main view port.
There is the main window, divided into two parts: upper and lower. The upper part is the main view, as described above. The lower part is a panel. That lower panel contains two things, another panel and a button. This panel inside the lower section contains the scrollable window; this scrollable window is a viewport onto another panel that contains the dynamically created buttons (which are thumbnails of the images in the directory).
I was trying to force the scrollbar policy to always show the horizontal bar (that is the only one I want visible) but that wasn't working either; I would get compiler errors when that was included. I have tried adjusting sizes of things, and the order that things are added to the main JFrame.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Here is the code:

}Ah! I got some of it figured out at least...
Setting the preferred size parameter has caused the scroll bars to display! :) Thanks for the hint on that.
But I get an error when I try and use the scrollbar policy settings. Here are the results:

Scroll bar moved layout slightly to left
If content on ALL of my site either did or didn't require a scroll bar, the transitions when clicking from page to page would all look smooth. Unfortunately I have some pages that are short (and so the browser displays no display bar) and other pages that are long, and when the scroll bar appears, my content gets moved slightly to the left. I suppose I could just keep adding a bunch of new paragraphs at the bottom of my short pages until a scroll bar appears, but this problem is bugging me. I'd like to fix it the real way. To visualize this problem see attached pictures below.
And here's some of the code that I think is relevant to my issue here.
body {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image: url(images2/palisades.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-color: #000000;
background-position: center left;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
.header {
width: 1000px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
height: 50px;
Below: the scroll bar pushes content slightly to the left.Actually, this one looks pretty simple.
The first page shown is long enough to need a vertical scrollbar. When that scroll bar kicks on, the actual width of the page changes slightly, so the content (which appears to be centered) will shift to the left when the scroll bar appears.
If it really bothers you (most visitors would never notice it) you can add a scroll bar to every page on your site (the pages that don't need it will pop up with a grayed out bar that doesn't allow scrolling) and your pages won't shift anymore if you add in overflow-y:scroll to the body tag css....
body {
overflow-y:scroll; -
Cannot See Multiple Cover Art Anymore
Cannot see multiple cover artwork since I upgraded to iTunes 10.5.1. I used to be able to see more then one art cover for a song. Now there's no arrow button in the artwork box to scroll through other covers, even though the multiple cover art is in the info box of the song Track.
iTunes 10.6 did not restore the scroll arrows in the art work box either. The scroll arrows appear briefly when you
add additional art work. I wish Apple would say whether or not they plan to restore this feature. I have invested a l
lot of time and effort in adding cover art and liner notes to my iTunes library and I am certainly not the only
one who has. I don't understand the lack of a fix or the silence about the loss of this feature. Anyone out there
have any thoughs about this?

iTunes (v8) is running on my MacBook (OS X 10.5.6).
When I use airtunes to play my iTunes music from Macbook to the Apple TV (selecting the Apple TV as the speakers in iTunes) it does not display the cover art on the Apple TV. Music plays, and it shows the artist and track name, however the cover art is blank.
All of my iTunes music has cover art and is in Apple lossles format (.m4a).
What am I doing wrong?I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at.
I have iTunes running on my Macbook. When I play music on my MacBook, in the lower right corner of iTunes I can select the speakers I want the audio output to. I can select computer (local), airport express, Apple TV or any combination.
When I select the Apple TV, audio output from iTunes comes out of the speakers on my TV (where Apple TV is connected). On the TV it also shows the track info of the song playing and a progress bar. Unfortunately, it just shows a generic "musical note" symbol for cover art.
I'm assuming iTunes is also sending the track into, otherwise how would the Apple TV show the track info? Because Apple TV is showing an empty cover art image I'm also assuming it's supposed to send that too. What's wrong?
