How to get Album art to Stick

I would love to be able to have the album art stay on the display (in the full screen mode) for more than a few seconds.
Does anyone know of a way to do this?
Thanks,
Greg

You might try using one of Dougs apple scripts, to extract the album art from your iTunes library into a folder. Once you have done this you can introduce them as a photo album in the advanced menu of iTunes, and then select them for your screensaver on the Apple TV.

Problem: How to get album art shown on nokia 6120 ...

Hi guys, i need help once again, how can i get the album art on my 6120 classic player? any advices any ideas? i really want to get the art there since it was one of the main reasons i bought the phone, i mean the good looks of its music player, thanks in advance once again for your advices

I just discovered that the best and possibly only way to get your album artwork to display on your nokia is to have the album artwork present in your iTunes album cover disply before trying to convert them to your phone.
Im not sure if a similar process would work for other media players. Its as simple as copying the image from windows explorer images into your album artwork box in iTunes and then importing your files again.
Good Luck, hope this works for you

How to get album art on iPod?

How do you get a picture of the front of an album to come up on your iPod when you play that album? The computer I am loading the songs onto it with has no internet connection, however I do have another computer with iTunes also that does have a web connection (but no firewire, so I can't use it to upload the songs). Anyway, is there somewhere I can download the art for all the albums in my collection and then transfer that to the iTunes on my offline PC and get it to put that album art on the iPod 5G?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Here are a couple of methods.
First off, make sure you have "show album art" enabled in iPod options.  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.   You'd be surprised what Google Images can bring up. There are literally millions, and even obscure album artwork can be found.
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 nice free program to do it for you.
"however I do have another computer with iTunes also that does have a web connection (but no firewire, so I can't use it to upload the songs)"
Doesn't matter anyway since the iPod 5th gen (video) cannot transfer songs etc via firewire only USB.

How to get album art to appear on nano

Well, I have all of my songs in iTunes with album artwork, yet when I sync'd a songlist to the nano and play any song, no album art shows up. None. Zero.
This should be as easy as transferring the songs.
On the itunes window, it lists that 0 photos are on the nano. I even tried syncing a small iphoto library of 16 photos to it. The photos appear, yet NONE of the album art shows up for ANY of my songs.
Respectfully requesting a clue.

Thanks to all who've replied so far. When I get home to both my home Mac and the Nano I will try each suggestion step by step.
On the off chance I stopped by our local Apple store to ask a rep about it. His reply was "only album art that will show on the nano will be from songs you've purchased through the iTunes Music Store." I asked him to repeat that just to make sure I understood him.
I said so, all of the CDs I have now ripped into iTunes, and scanned artwork from the covers and sync'd in iTunes - will NOT show up on my nano when I sync the nano to my iTunes library. He said that's correct.
I think this guy is full of it. But then that's just my opinion.
Can anyone confirm that they have artwork showing on a Nano that was NOT downloaded from the iTunes music store? Rather - like most of us - ripped from a CD, artwork gracefully found from amazon and dragged to the iTunes window?
Thanks for all the help so far gang. Will update in about 6 hours when I get home.
Oh - BTW, through out all this the nano reported 0 photos until I uploaded about 16 photos from the iPhoto library just to make sure that was working properly. It still reports 640 songs, 16 photos, capacity 3.7 Gb, Available 290 Mb, and version 1.0, serial # ###, Model PA005LL

*** How to get Album Art on your iPod Nano: ANSWERED!

I'll start by saying that my iPod Nano would not display ANY album art at all, even though it did in iTunes. I just added 180 albums to my iPod, and they all showed up, perfectly. Here's how I did it:
1) Move all the songs you want on your iPod into the iTunes music library. (Open iTunes, and drag the files over the "LIBRARY" catagory)
2) Click Music, under the LIBRARY heading.
3) Add the artwork to each song/album. I used "iTunes Art Importer". It's a great program, and is really easy to use/download.
4) Connect your iPod to your computer.
5) Remove any songs you have on the iPod.
6) Go to the Music tab, in the iPod control panel.
7) Sync all music files/playlists from your iTunes library.
If you did this correctly, all the album art you added in your iTunes library should display on your iPod. Be sure to have "Display Album Art on this iPod" checked off.

I have 2.0 USB on my laptop and pc and it still does not work. Just ot really worried about artwork ecause I don't look at it while it is playing.......

How to get album art on your iPod nano. Read this.

I have had problems getting artowrk on my nano from my computer but it was only because I didnt have USB 2.0 outlets on my computer. I used a different computer that had USB 2.0 and it worked fine. Just click the little button under your sources in iTunes that says "Show or hide song artwork and video viewer" so it opens and then drag the picture you want into that and it will go on your iPod nano artwork. Remember to have the artwork for your nano enabled though. To get it enabled just click the little icon on the bottom right of iTunes that looks like a iPod nano and click the music tab and then make sure the "Enable artowkr for your iPod nano" box is checked. If you have any other questions just comment this.

Follow these steps;
1. Download & Install Easy CD-DA Extractor v11.0 (30-Day Trial). This software is amazing & its worth paying for...and if u get other version above v11.0 album art will NOT work !
Download Link: http://rapidshare.com/files/120267020/ezcddax11.exe.html
MODs dont worry it 30-Day Trial
2. Run Easy CD-DA Extractor v11.0
3. Select the “Audio Converter” Tab & drag your files that you want converting.
4. Now edit your audio files tags such as Genre, Artist, Album etc
5. Highlight all your music files & click on the “Additional ID3” tab.
6. You have two options either to Download Album Art off the Internet or Load the
image from your PC. For this guide I am going to use an Image that is saved on my PC.
7. Select Your Encoding Method eg MP3 Lame, AAC+, eAAC+ etc
8. Then Press Convert Button & presto u get album art
Alternativly if you want a Guide with Screenshots then I've made this guide, remember the guide came from me ...

Is there a way to get custom JPEG album art to "stick" in iTunes 11.1.4?

Is there any way to get custom jpeg album art to stick in iTunes 11.1.4?

You can Right-Click too to bring up the Get Info dialog box. If you go to the artwork tab, (the last tab) then you can click the add button, and a standard Mac dialog box opens and you can navigate to the jpg file of your choice in a normal Mac fashion.

How come you need an iTunes Store account to get album art?

I have no problem with this, because I do have an account. But on my sister's computer, she can't get album art because she doesn't have an iTunes Store account. Mainly because you need a credit card to set one up, and she's only 10. She just uses iTunes to burn her CD's to play on her iPod, she's only 10, why does she need an account to get album art?

I don't think any of us can definitively answer this one since it is decided by somebody like iTunes marketing. However, Apple is a for-profit corporation. The album artwork download is definitely a service for customers, and maybe a free perk to potential customers. If you have that account you are just one tiny click away from making a purchase and don't even have time to have second thoughts that you might have if you had to enter a credit card number each time. Kind of like a store offering something free inside to get you to walk through the door.

Getting album art from iTunes Store...

I have an extensive music library on an external HD, but most songs are/were in 'wma' format. On loading iTunes, it spent 36 hours converting these to AAC (m4a) format, but it didn't bring the album art over. Now I have a perfect music collection, doubled in size, which I can view in Windows Media Player (with all the album art) or in iTunes (without any album art).
Unfortunately, we who live in South Africa are not allowed to download album art from the iTunes Store, so I cannot restore the artwork...and every time I try to access the Store from inside iTunes, it bombs out - but I can access the iTunes site on any normal web browser (usually Mozilla).
So what now???

Sorry, but as you've discovered, you cannot get album art from the iTunes Store without an account, and being a South African resident, there's no way for you to open an account. There are, however, many other ways of getting album art. Just search the web for something like "iTunes album art" and you should find a number of utilities, suggestions for sources and instructions on how to proceed.
Regards.
