How to delete artwork in the new iTunes?

With the new iTunes having been installed a night or two ago, I cannot seem to easily manage the album artwork of my songs anymore.
When I hit "Get Info" and go to the "Artwork" tab, the only way to add art is by clicking "Add Artwork" and manually searching for it in my drives. I no longer can simply copy and paste. I also cannot even do anything with the currently existing artwork; right clicking it does literally nothing. Highlighting and hitting "delete" on the keyboard also does nothing. So, granted these new extremely limited options (again, I can literally only "Add Artwork"), how does one go about deleting already-existing artwork?
In most cases, adding artwork did seem to automatically delete any previously existing one, which is exactly what I needed. But for a couple of cases, adding artwork only added the image to the "Art Gallery" instead of actually overlapping the old art, and there is zero option to delete either of the two similar images. Any insight?

The iTunes 12 Get Info dialog lacks right-click context menus but 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.
If you have multiple images embedded drag the one you want to be the primary artwork to the leftmost position.
The top left image box can be used to add or delete art from multiple tracks. In either case all existing art is removed/replaced.
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)

  • HT3281 anyone know how to delete podcasts off the new itunes please

    Hi
    Does anyone know how you delete podcasts of the new I-Tunes please
    Thank you 

    The show duplicates/show exact duplicates features have been left out of iTunes 11. Rumor suggests they will be restored in the next build. In the meantime I have written two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates, either from a selection of tracks or the entire library.
    If you want to manually remove duplicate tracks use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file.
    There is also my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.

  • How can I see on the new itunes how many gigs a playlist is?

    On the new Itunes I can't seem to see how many gigs a playlist is without trying to add it to my device.. it is extremely annoying and it makes it very difficult to build effective play lists.

    Either CTRL+/, or View > Show Status Bar.
    Either of those will bring back the line of information along the bottom, including duration and size.

  • Does anyone know how to remove duplicates in the new iTunes?, Does anyone know how to remove duplicates in the new iTunes?

    I just got a new laptop (Windows) and downloaded the new iTunes on it. It scanned my computer for music, and after it was done there were up to 5 copies of each song in the library. The "old" itunes used to have an option to remove duplicates but I cannot find a way to do that in the new iTunes. Anyone know?

  • HT1386 I have an 80GB iPod that was purchased in 2007 and I cannot figure out how to sync it using the "newer" iTunes format.  Can anyone help?

    I have an older iPod (80GB) which I used to be able to sync, but now the iTunes format has changed and I cannot figure out how to sync it.  The tutorial showed a page that should pop up when the device is connected to my authorized PC, but that page does not appear.  Any suggestions?  I need to sync my device to transfer newer music.

    If you have a PC, Control S brings back that familiar side bar on the left side. That might help.  I'm also going to askt he hosts to relocated this post in the iPod forum. This is the iPad part and you may get more device specific info there.

  • Why can't I copy and paste album artwork with the new iTunes?

    I updated to the new 10.5.1.(42) iTunes.  Now I can't add album artwork like I always have.  I open the artwork window in the lower left corner to access artwork.  I used to be able to right click/copy and right click/paste.  Now I can't.  This is a backwards step.  I'm getting fed up with Apple making changes for the worse.
    I can add artwork with many more steps but the method I mentioned above is(was) the quickest and easiest.
    Quit making changes just to make a change, Apple!
    And, yes, I submotted feedback to Apple through the link in iTunes.
    Tracy

    I went through updates on my three newest Macs this week.  As I stated I'm talking about iTunes 10.5.1 (42).  I am checking for updates now and I see 10.5.2 is now available.  I'll know in about 15 minutes if this issue is fixed or not.
    15 minutes later:
    I must have updated this PPC G5 a day or two before iTunes 10.5.2 came out.  I was able to update to 10.5.2 (11) and this copy/paste bug is fixed.  I'm happy again.

  • How do I delete apps off the new itunes ?

    So somehow, my husband used my computer to attach his phone to itunes.  Now, when i open my itunes store (connect my phone to sync)  it has all of his apps in my store and it wants to load them on my phone.  How do I delete those from my itunes account.  I have tried the highlight and then push delete button on keyboard - but it doesn't work.  I can't even right click on the app.  When I hit 'remove' it says 'will remove' then when it starts to sync it starts putting them on my phone.  Please help, this is totally frustrating.

    Click the blue "Done" button in the upper right:
    then choose Apps in the pull-down in the upper left of the next screen:
    which will then list your apps. You can delete items by clicking on one or more and hitting the "delete" key.
    Took me quite a while to find this. Apple should know better than to make things so non-intuitive for us.
