How do I put ablum art on my Z

I just bought a ZEN 2gb recently, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to put album art on it. I know it's possible though, because one (just one) of my songs had album art for a bit, until I resynched and then it was gone. I've tried using WMP and MediaMonkey, but neither are working for me. Any idea on how I could get album art onto my ZEN?

Album art can also be embedded into the file itself as an MP3 ID3 tag, which is a good idea if your music files on your comptuer aren't well organized - by artist, then album for example. Or, if some of your folders are just random songs. Storing the art as part of the mp3 file itself is probably the best way for your situation. If one JPG file in your library is called folder.jpg, it will be picked up as the art for other files in that folder too.
You'll need to find and use some software that let's you edit the ID3 tags, including, adding album art. This page is a good description of the MP3 ID tag standard : What is ID3v2?
You'll need to invest some time cleaning up your files' tag info and will need some software to do that. Media Monkey is one I use and recommend. The article here talks about the Album Art part of the standard music file tags known as ID3

Basically, you point media monkey to your music library and it allows you to choose each song or album in your collection and edit the ID3 elements of your songs, including, track name, genre, artist, and album art. I don't have experience with WMA files as all mine are MP3, but I think you can use tagging software to insert ID3 elemetns to WMA formats too.
After the files in your computer are cleaned up, synching them to your Zen again should now bring across the updated info, including the Art.

  • How Do I put Album Art into my music files for Zen V Pl

    I have a Zen V Plus and don't know how to put album art on songs that are already on the player...
    Please Help MeMessage Edited by kmn755 on 2-03-200706:47 PM

    You have to append the artwork to the actual music files themselves. What I do is search Amazon.com for the album that the songs are off of, click the artwork so it expands and then right click the larger artwork and COPY.
    Then in iTunes go into "get info" on the song, and paste the artwork in the artwork tab. This will append it to the file. Yeah yeah i know it isn't technically legal to "copy" the artwork but I honestly don't give a rat's a$$ about doing it and neither should you.
    (...cue finger-waving "shame on you, you're breaking the law" post...)
    Then once you transfer this song you put the artwork on to your nano, it should show up there when you play the song. At least this works for me on my 30GB iPod video.

    How do i put multiple albums into one huge album collection?
    Some examples include: Linkin Park - Studio Collection, Michael Jackson - The Indisposable Collection

    Hi skullkrunch3r,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you "Get Info" on the tracks that are part of your collection, you can use the Compilation option in iTunes.
    In iTunes 8 and later, you find the option to mark multiple items as "Part of a compilation" in the Options tab of the Multiple Item Information window.
    See this article for more information on marking your albums as part of a compilation:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • ITunes 10.4 can't put album art

    Ever since I have updated my iTunes to 10.4 on Windows, it won't let me put album art on my songs or get it from iTunes either. It just shows a white or black box. Anyone know what the problem is?

    Well. My first efforts to search for a solution were poorly executed, because I tried again and found lots of answers.
    The problem appears to be using a Wacom driver. See the discussion here and (same thread) here and here. No idea when that will be fixed. I use a 8 or 9 year old Graphire, and drivers have been a problem for most of those. Sigh.
    But this experience also made me learn that you can right click to add selections to a playlist.
    I even learned how that first column works, which I never knew before.

    How would i put pictures on the songs??

    Album artwork?
    In iTunes, on the bottom left is a box with an arrow up (if it's an arrow down, don't click), click on that and the icon will change with a box and an arrow down.
    Find the file on Safari/FireFox/IE/whatever internet browser you use, and click and hold the picture. Now drag it to the iTunes window, and release on the empty box in the low left pane. (You can also copy/paste the image from the internet, and onto the song.
    For multiple songs, select the songs you want to modify, right click (apple click for Mac), and select "Get Info". Copy and paste the image into the Album artwork box, and make the sure the tick box is checked. Apply (and select ok to the message that appears, warning you of changing multiple songs). Let it process and in less than a minute, you'll have album art.

  • How do I put these songs and videos onto the Music App?

    How do I load mp3 content, videos, and other content from applications onto the music app? For example, I have applications such as Video Hunter Pro that downloads youtube videos, but how do I put the videos or audio track into my Music app? I don't want to constantly switch apps. For iTunes on all devices.

    Only items directly downloaded from iTunes Store or synced over from iTunes on a computer can be placed in the music or video app.

  • How do I put text into an Edge File that clients can edit easily afterwards

    Hi
    Can anyone explain how I can put text into an edge file (styled with google fonts) and make it so that clients can access the text and update the text as they require?
    Previous suggestion was dynamically loading a .txt file - any instructions would be most appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi Resdesign!
    Your code is very useful to learn how to use Json in Adobe Edge Animate!
    But I have a question: why you use ( i ) as argument of the function UpdateInfo and when you recall it you use ( index )?
    $.getJSON('slides.json', function(data){
              //for(var i=0; i<data.length; i++){
    function updateInfo(i){
                        sym.$("photo").css({"background-image": "url('"+data[i].image+"')"});
                        sym.$("pillar").html(data[i].pillar);
                        sym.$("what").html(data[i].what);
                        // position
              index = -1;
              sym.$("btn").click(function(){
              index++;
                        if (index>=5){
                                  index = 0;
              updateInfo(index);
    Many thanks for your attention!

  • How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.
