Incorrect album artwork

I had the wrong album title entered for a song and consequently got the wrong artwork.  The iTunes store carries the correct artwork for the album so I corrected the album title but still get the wrong artwork, even after selecting "get album artwork".  How can I fix?

Yeah I hear you regarding the "feeding the fever". Some people cringe when I tell them how much I've downloaded from the iTMS. Some chuckle, some laugh, some people's jaw drop but the truth in the matter is that I spend no more on the iTMS then I used to spend on store bought albums. If I divide how much I've spent on the iTMS by how many months I've been downloading (June 2003) it comes out to just over $34.00 a month (the price of a couple albums in the store). That is not taking into consideration free songs from Pepsi caps, savings from buying albums (you usually get more than 10 songs on an album) and it's not counting other free songs such as "Downloads of the Week" etc... I'm also getting songs I want by picking and choosing rather than going to the store and purchasing an entire album where you may only like a maximum of a few songs from that particular album. I think I'm still coming out a head. Best of all I haven't downloaded a song illegally in nearly 3 years!

  • On my ipod touch 4g, its showing the incorrect album artwork for the songs

    On my ipod touch 4g it's showing incorrect album artwork. I have music I bought from iTunes and some music from the internet that isn't included in iTunes. The problem has been going on for a while but i've ignored it but now I would like the correct album artwork for each song. First, I deleted every single song in my itunes iTunes libaray, then synced my ipod. Then i put the music i bought from iTunes in my libaray and synced it and the album artwork that showed was from songs and albums that I had deleted from my iTunes libaray. It's becoming a very fustrating problem that I would like to be solved.

  • ITunes 12 syncing incorrect album artwork

    When syncing music from iTunes 12 to my iPhone 5s, several songs have incorrect album artwork. I have attempted completely deleting all music from my phone and reinstalling this content, however; this error is still occurring. The correct album artwork is appearing in iTunes.

    In certain cases where the same album title is used for more than one album or sort values are used to try to group different things together I have seen the artwork index on an iPod classic get out of sync so that say the 20th album shows the artwork from the 19th and the 50th from the 48th etc. Can't say I've noticed it on an iOS device, but this type of issue is fixed by populating tags consistently as described in Grouping tracks into albums.
    Assuming everything is otherwise correct in iTunes this method will normally sort things out.
    Backup device.
    Restore as new device.
    Restore backup made earlier.

  • Why does my iphone 4s display the incorrect album artwork when a song is playing?

    When I rotate my phone, it makes no difference what song is playing at any given time,  the artwork and track list is incorrect.  For example when I rotate my phone horizontally from a song list view or a album track list view the album artwork is diplayed on the left and the track listing is on the right. Additionally the pause button is at the bottom of the album cover.  The problem is that iTunes is not diplaying the song and ablum that is currently playing.  What is the solution?
    The image below is what is diplayed when a track is playing.  How did the iPhone select this ablum to display?

    Thank you for your help but it did not solve the problem. My lyrics are working again though so that's good. Additionally iTunes has duplicated some of my albums. Some albums appear normally but those that are duplicated show the iCloud download next to it.

  • Songs On iPod Out Of Order/Shuffling Displays Incorrect Album Artwork

    Hello all. My main problem(s) with my 4th generation iPod nano is that on selected albums, the songs are displayed in an incorrect order (not corresponding correctly to my iTunes library). This and that when I shuffle all my songs, the artwork doesn't correspond correctly to the song that is playing. I have called Apple at least four times and tried reinstalling iTunes twice, restoring my iPod to factory defaults three times, resyncing my iPod four times, and checking the tags on my iTunes Library songs. Any ideas what the problem could be?

    I am having the same problem that my artwork doesn't correspond with the right song thats playing, get different artwork and also artwork from movies that have been deleted long ago. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

  • Why is my 3GS showing some incorrect album artwork when it is correct on computer?

    When using my ipod on my 3GS I have noticed that I sometimes have the incorrect artwork displayed. For example I have 3 Nickelback albums which on my computer shows the correct artwork but on my iphone either doesn't show the artwork or is showing Elton John albums!!! Seems a bit of a strange glitch. Anyone else have this problem or know how to solve it?

    I've always assumed those silly strings were recording the results of the gapless playback analysis but whatever they're for it would be better if they were stored in a spare field.
    Windows Media Player/Windows Explorer may be less fussy on embedded artwork formats than iTunes or the media file might actually be missing the art but the Windows Explorer cache (Thumbs.db) still shows it. You say removing-reimporting doesn't help but I assume you can still paste new artwork in and have it remembered. If so you might want to use the following tool to at least take some of the effort out of searching out which tracks you need to repair.
    *How to find tracks without artwork*
    To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant jpeg images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
    I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.

  • Removing incorrect album artwork

    How can I remove artwork which has been incorrectly assigned to an album, and replace it with the correct artwork? I know how to manually add artwork if there is none there, but I couldn't figure out how to remove the existing incorrect artwork in order to replace it. Thanks for all responses.

    Found the answer via the search feature, thanks.

  • Bazaar Album Artwork Issue

    So I have a very strange album artwork issue with my iPhone 4. I've verified that the artwork is correct for the songs this is occurring with (each individual song, not the albums).
    When I play certain songs (only certain ones) I get a mosaic of incorrect album artwork.
    http://gallery.me.com/jsagurton#100012/Album%20Artwork&bgcolor=black
    I've again verified that in iTunes the album artwork is correct, and even copied the correct album artwork file to my desktop and then changed the artwork for this particular song to the correct artwork and resynced the device, and the issue still happens.
    The issue also happens in coverflow, if the song I'm playing has the weird album artwork. Once I scroll to another album though, the artwork goes back to the correct artwork in coverflow. Going back to the standard view brings back the incorrect artwork however.
    What's even more bazaar about this, is the mosaic isn't always consistent. A bunch of songs do this, but have different album covers making up the mosaic, and I have nothing in iTunes with a mosaic of artwork like this.

    I have the same problem and posted a request for help but no-one has replied with an answer. It annoys me greatly that APPLE will not assist and in fact want to charge me $29 to even look at the problem, when it is their buggy software that is at fault.
    Looks like we are destined to be screwed by APPLE over this.

  • Help needed adding album artwork using Windows Vista

    My computer is a PC running Windows Vista. I am missing some album artwork - some artwork from CDs I ripped to Windows Media Player and subsequently transferred to ITunes and my IPod Classic (120GB), and some artwork that is either missing from ITunes or incorrect album artwork. When I drag an album image from ITunes to my album artwork window, it won't copy, nor can I do it from Windows Media Player. Yes, I have enabled automatic download of artwork in ITunes, and yes, I have already read the basic adding album artwork article, and I am not able AT ALL to do any kind of drag and drop.
    I also noticed that my ITunes songs is missing album artwork that ITunes has a partial album for, but I have the FULL album (which I transferred from WMP)
    Any suggestions?

    You can't copy the artwork from the iTunes Store...
    You also won't have any joy if you're trying to add artwork to wav files as they don't support tags.
    Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. Copy the image from the source, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I to *Get Info* and paste the image into the artwork box.

  • Sometimes when I move music from my iTunes library to my iPod I get incorrect album art. Any known causes/fixes?

    Sometimes when I move music (typically an album) from iTunes to my iPod I get incorrect album artwork on the iPod. Is this a known issue with the iPod classic and are there any fixes other than a complete restore and sync of the iPod?

    You can manually manage or you can sync by playlist/artist/album/genre/checked songs.
    Maybe you should read the manual:

  • Album artwork incorrect on ipod problem

    Hello
    I've got a 60GB iPod video and have never had a problem with it until recently which may or may not coincide with the upgrade to iTunes 7....
    For some reason now on the iPod some album artwork is showing up incorrectly, for instance purchased music is showing album artwork for subscribed podcasts. However it's not just purchased music it's affecting all my music and it's driving me mad!
    Can anyone assist? I've already had a search of the forums and am not overly keen on rolling back to a previous version of iTunes.
    Cheers

    I've got the 30 gb video and i'm having the same problem...the album artwork is correct on iTunes, but it's showing a totally different album than the one playing on my iPod...it's driving me crazy as well.
    Does anyone know what to do about this?

  • IPhone 5 thumbnails for album artwork incorrect

    I've been having a problem with the album artwork that displays as a thumbnail when you open the music app. For all the albums which contain music videos, a snapshot of the video appears to be replacing the normal artwork for the album. However when I open the album to view the tracklist, or actually play any of the songs in it, it displays the correct artwork as it did before the problem arose. So the issue here is simply with the thumbnails that display in the album menu of the music app.
    This first started occurring after I attempted to sync my iPhone to my PC through iTunes, after which the thumbnails for the album artwork all disappeared entirely. I unsynced and redownloaded my music only to find that the thumbnails for several albums were still incorrect as I explained above.
    Deleting the videos from the albums does not solve the issue, nor does redownloading the album in it's entirety.

    This is what I figured out I went back to my itunes 10.7 on my MBP and all my album artwork that was not showing up on my iPhone 5  was showing up in coverflow on my MBP but after closer exam the ones missing from iphone 5 actually were missing from the selected item pane or the drag artwork here area so I downloaded and added my art by going to just the ones that were missing from that or you can get info on selected track and go to art tab and add it there after doing that on the first 25 missing I synced the phone and they all came back. Still don't know how they got stripped out of itunes in the preview but not the coverflow but I guess that's for the Geniuses at Apple to come up with. Apple please don't remove coverflow and Album art people love that dont screw it up
    Make sure you stay away from upgrading to itunes 11 if you love album art and coverflow they have been removed and the new interface is really really complicated and very unappealing graphically

  • Album Artwork Incorrect. How to Correct?

    I've been busy adding my entire music collection to iTunes/iPod and most of the time everything works brilliantly. However from time to time I get weird and wondeful Album Artwork that is completely irrelevant to the Album I've just imported, I've sussed removing the offending artwork, but want to know how I can find the correct artwork without going to all the hassle of scanning my CD covers and resizing etc, etc. Any ideas, links etc?

    I've had the same problem on a few albums... I've tried changing the cover art several times. Even went into iTunes store and found the correct album cover but iTunes insists on the incorrect cover art. I cannot find a work around except for finding the correct cover art online and importing it manually. However, on importing and collecting over 7000 albums, iTunes has only missed the target 4 or 5 times in my count.

  • The album artwork on my iTouch looks correct when I am scrolling through, but when I play a song the album artwork shows an incorrect image.  How do I fix this?

    For example, when I am looking through my albums, the artwork is right.  When I click on an album and play a song, the album artwork is incorrect.  When I go to iTunes and try to look at the artwork, it is correct.  What do I do?

    A couple of other possibilities:
    The CD is dirty / damaged / suffering from "CD Rot" - sometimes CDs may seem to play fine on a CD player (or using the CD-player function of a PC) but will not transfer correctly to a computer - this is the result of the way that CD players auto-correct the datastream from the CD where PCs, when reading the audio CD as data, do not.
    Enabling the error correction function in iTunes import may alleviate if not fully resolve this
    Use an alternate tool to extract the audio from the CD - Exact Audio Copy is probably the best out there, as it can be configured to attempt multiple reads of every audio sample on a CD to get a consistent result.  Then import the resulting files into iTunes.
    You don't say whether this is specific to one CD as in the original poster's case, but the "crackling" symptom has affected a significant number of users of the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.0.71 - these are mostly addressed in the most recent update (12.1.1.4), but if nothing else works it may be worth trying this alternative installer: iTunes 12.1.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)

  • Album artwork incorrect

    Is anyone experiencing the wrong cover art showing up after you let your playlists repeat? When I initially play my playlist, all is fine and dandy, but when my playlist repeats, the song showing is correct, but the album artwork is completely wrong. So I could be listening to the Shins, but Guns N Roses artwork shows up. I can replicate on my 8GB 3g nano. Anyone else have this?

    Yes, I'm getting this issue too, although in my case it's as a result of using "Shuffle Songs" mode - initially the artwork is correct but after a period of time (possibly related to number of songs played - if I skip tracks and/or jump to previous tracks it happens sooner) it gets all scrambled up. Turning Shuffle or Repeat modes off, or stopping the playlist and choosing something else will clear it up OK for me. Rebooting (per the other poster in the thread) is a temporary fix also.
    Whilst it's clearly Yet Another 1.0C Firmware Glitch, it's at least an amusing one: Some of the artwork / track juxtapositions it's come up with for me have been fairly amusing
