How can i transfer album artwork to itunes

can someome help me i have got some album artwork but cant seem to be able to put it on to itunes?

There are various methods of adding artwork to your songs and albums.
If you have an iTunes store account, you can use the "get album artwork" option in iTunes. You don't actually need to purchase anything from the iTunes store, just to have or create an account. Provided that the album or song for which you are looking to add artwork is available for sale in the store, iTunes will find it and add it to your library.
If you go to preferences/general in iTunes and check the box marked "automatically download missing album artwork", it will automatically add the artwork when you import a CD into iTunes.
You must have the album or song tagged in your iTunes library correctly or it may not be found. For instance, even a missing "The" before the artists name can throw up anomalies. iTunes will check each song in your iTunes library and attempt to match it up with a song in the iTunes Store. If the data matches, iTunes will download the album artwork from the iTunes Store and add it to the song in your iTunes library.
If you don't have an account or don't want to create one, here are a couple of other methods.
Highlight a song or album in iTunes, then right click on it and select the "get album artwork" option.

Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images. 

Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image". 

When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes. 

Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste. 

In the unlikely event that Google can’t find an image, you can also get artwork from Amazon.
If you’re happy using images from Amazon, and don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a free program to do it for you.
And for Macs, there's Album Art Widget.
You can set this to find art from Amazon, Google and elsewhere, automatically add artwork to songs, rate songs, and a bunch of other stuff.
One of the coolest widgets around.

    I have the same problem but your advice did not work for me. Pehaps I do not understand your directions. What do you mean by "go to where you saved the album artwork"? I never had any problem adding new artwork until I installed iTunes version 11.1.3 (8). Now I can't add new artwork anymore. Is there a special file in this version of iTunes where I should be saving the artwork I want to add to make it work? Before I could save it anywhere.
    If you downloaded the artwork from the Internet. It'll be in your downloads folder. Open the folder, and "drag" the image from the folder to the Artwork box in the Info pane as shown:
    When you see the "+" you know it's ready to drop, and it will add the artwork to ALL selected tracks as soon as you click "OK".

  • How can I get album artwork from itunes to ipod with manual music managemen

    I have chosen to manage music manually since there are four ipods that use the same computer in my home. I recently upgaded to itunes 7 and got my album art updated but can't figure out how to get it to the ipod without syncing the whole thing. Thanks for your help!

    Well there is a setting to "manage music manually" so that the sync doesn't happen automatically. That way my wife doesn't have to get the stuff I put on the system, etc. I have to drag and drop new stuff onto my iPod after I rip it into iTunes.
    I'd give in and allow the autosync but I have a number of CD's that for some reason iTunes can't "find" even though they're already on the iPod. itunes tells me that if I do the sync the iPod will be erased and rewritten and I'm worried about losing those tunes.
    Thanks for the post! Greetings, Copenhagen.

    You can only join tracks when importing from a CD and likewise, the Options button is also only visible when importing from CD.
    When the CD is in the drive and showing in iTunes, you will see Options, CD Info and Import CD choices. If you select Options, the Join CD Tracks option only appears when you have two or more adjacent tracks selected. See the screenshots below:

  • How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another?

    How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another? My daughter has an iTouch, and I was managing it through my library. I have created an iTunes account for her, with a new iTouch, and would like to move the apps over. I tried to sync the old iTouch to the new library and it said it was already set up to sync with a different library. What is the best way to do this?

    You can transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    To make the new computer the syncing computer you have to:
    - Transfer iTunes purchases lIke I described above
    - Make a backup of the iPod on that computer by connecting the iPod and then right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPOd from that backup
    She will have to continue to use your iTunes ID to update the apps prchased with your account. To use her account she will have to log into the computer with her account (iTunes>Store) and change the sign in on the iPod by going to Settings>Store.

  • How can I transfer music from my iTunes to my LG Octane (VN530)?

    How can I transfer music in my iTunes account to my new LG VN530 (Octane)?

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Answering quickly, though, iTunes does not support any phones or players other than Apple's own. You'll need to use the software, if any, or procedure provided by LG for loading music onto your new phone. The track files can be found in the iTunes folder in your Mac user's Home folder.
    Regards.

  • How can i transfer songs from another itunes other than mine

    how can i transfer songs from another itunes other than mine

    Purchases made under 1 Apple ID are permanently associated with that Apple ID and CANNOT be transferred to another Apple ID.  So if you want to keep those songs, you'll need to always have access to your dad's account.

    What does the iPhone have to do with anything?
    Don't plug yoru iPhone into his computer.
    Do I need my iPhone to do it or can I do it from iMac to iMac? Thanks for any help.
    So you have two different computers?
    Just enable Home Sharing and he can copy the songs from you iTunes to his then he can sync his iPhone to his iTunes.

  • HT1414 how can i transfer my apps from itunes of my computer to my iphone 3gs??

    how can i transfer my apps from itunes of my computer to my iphone 3gs??

    Which apps? The iPhone apps you have selected/purchased on the iPhone App Store thru iTunes?
    Or the apps installed on the Mac?
    For the first case, simply connect the phone, start up iTunes if it doesn't do so on its own accord, click on your phone's entry on the list in the left column, select the Summary tab to make sure all is well, then click on the Sync button on the bottom edge of the screen. If you want, you can click on the Apps tab and arrange your applications how you like them prior to the sync, too.
    If the second case, no can do. iPhone apps run on iPhones, Mac apps run on Macs.
