INFO ( AlbumArt )

I'm a new iPod user and have been reading these forums for about a week or so now and have resolved a few issues through help from others (thank you).
Among a few other "main issues" one of them is album art. I have read and tried many solutions to this problem and so far none of the ones that I have read here has lead to a permanent solution to the problem.
It seems to me that Apple would/should come up with a solution to this problem, correct me if I'm wrong but iPod=iTunes so it seems to me that they should be able to provide album art to the users since it is all available at the iTunes music store.
The solution that I came up with is: media center, set it to not import or do anything automatically, have it show album info for the CD's you insert and when the picture comes up drag and drop to your desktop. Then I took Audioshell (shell integration for windows) and went to the directory I ripped the CD to and highlighted all the songs and added the cover to them there.
This WAS working great until I did the 1.1 update. I'm at work now and NONE of the covers are showing up (even the stuff I purchased) I'm hoping that when I get home and check that iTunes is set to not display art. If it is and its not showing I'll go back to the 1.0 firmware.
I'll post links to the stuff I'm talking about when I go home tomorrow.

Checked and it was set to display artwork.
went back to verssion 1.0, synced the iPod and walla, ALL the artwork is back EVERY SONG/ALBUM now displays CORRECTLY!

Is the link to the software I used to change tags and put the album covers IN the songs

  • Low resolution albumart when connected to 'made for Ipod' ICE-systems.

    I've recently installed a new stereo in my car. It is 'made for Ipod', and should therefore work great with my new Ipod Touch (3G) 32GB. And it does, in all ways but one. The albumart, shown on the stereo, looks really poor (with low resolution).
    I've spent some time looking for info in this matter on the net. Apparently the same problem occurs with many different brands of ICE-systems (In Car Entertainment). According to posts on other forums this problem came with a recent firmware upgrade (v3.0?), and possibly has something to do with coverflow. Older versions of Ipods apparently shows crisp albumarts on these stereos (can't confirm this, my Ipod is too new).
    Since it seems it could be a software related problem, can one expect a fix in future firmware upgrades? Or is this something I/we have to live with (due to limitaitons in the hardware)?

    I'm having a similar problem. I can pair  my ipod nano with my BT speakers first time and work perfect, but the next time I try to play music through the speakers I MUST do a manual connection beacuse the nano not auto connects with ANY paried devices. I mean, the BT speakers appears as paried, but not connected
    I am extremely frustrated too.
    Any idea?
    Tested with diferent devices with same behaviur.

    You need to reset PRAM and maybe NVRAM. See the following KB article:

    Since updating my Itunes software some time ago, I've not been able to add my own artwork,ie album covers, to my own personal albums.Used to be able to go to "File," "Get Info" and drag/drop my photo into the artwork box, hit save/OK and Voila! No longer and it's Really frustrating. It will let me drag it there but it
    won't save it or display it. (Why they go and break somethin' that was working fine?....just an aside) What must one do now to display their own artwork for albums that are non purchasable online?

    Thanks again. Though I'm not really tech savy, I don't believe this issue has to do with Tags.
    it has everyrhing to do with tags.
    The artwork is stoed in the Artwork tag field.
    Since WAV files do not have tags, there is no where to store the tags.
    If you use iTunes to get artwork for WAV files, it puts themn into the AlbumArt folder adn links it to the correct files via the iTunes library.itl file.
    All other formats (MP3, AAC, AIFF, Apple Lossless) have na artwork tag to store the artwork in the media file itself.
    in the past, to add my own personal artwork,
    Not to WAV files. You must have imported them as a different format.

  • Changing Song info on External HDD through iTunes

    I new to iTunes 11 , I explore many things in it but I have some problem with organizing songs . I have some question , so please help me throughout this .
    1) So first of all i Don't know from where i get these two files in every of my music folder (Folder.jpg & AlbumArt.jpg)
    I want to remove these files, I simply want to know that this will change any music info like the album art for the album name .
    2) I am having very limited space on  my MacBook air 128 GB and have 8 Tb external HDD . So I generally import only 20 GB of songs in my iTunes library and other my songs remain on my external HDD . So that I can transfer music to my iPod . Simply when I change wrong info about my songs in iTunes does that remain when I copy iTunes music to any other place . Or how can I change music info which I have an external HDD permanently so that I don't have to change when I every time when i add them to my other system iTunes . Simply I want to change info in itunes as well as on its original mp3.
    Please Help me thorughout this .

    Well, you cannot change the fact that iTunes needs to access the actual song file in order to play it. How else could it play it?
    So, you will always have to have your exHD plugged in BEFORE you open iTunes.
    If you can't edit song info when the exHD is plugged in and iTunes can find the file, then your operating system permissions are not set correctly.

  • How to Transfer iTunes Info into ID3?

    Hi all,
    I Have my itunes Library sorted to my liking, but I want all the information (Artist, Genre, Year, Album Art etc) to be transfered to the Mp3's ID3 Tag so all the info is portable. Does anyone know how to use this? I'm using 10.5.3 OS X w/ the latest version of itunes, thanks again!

    I Jut found that it copied my library into another folder and all of those are tagged! (Though the originals I have Placed in the Library remain unchanged? Also, In that new folder it made with copies w/ ID3 tag, sometimes there are two of each in a folder, does anyone know why? Ie.
    Artist - Song
    Artist - Song 1
    Anyone know why this is happening? Thanks for the quick reply!
    EDIT:
    Sorry for the confusion, but here's my overall problem. I have all my music sorted in a folder as I like it, though I didn't know an option was on to copy my music over to another folder. What I would like ultimately is to get rid of all the music that it created, and have it use the original files as the m=path to the MP3's, though I would like to transfer all the ID3 Tags (Genre, Artist, Albumart, etc) that I have currently set. Is this possible? Or do I have to clear the library and individually add them back album-by-album with the copy-to-another-folder option off? Thanks again!

  • Esquema de Cálculo - RM0002 - Info Record

    Pessoal,
    Boa noite!
    Gostaria de pedir uma ajuda. Estou em um projeto de implantação de SAP e no processo de testes de solicitação de cotação, encontrei um problema na momento de salvar o preço de mercado. O sistema acusa o seguinte erro: "Não foi possível determinar tipo de condição para o preço Nº mensagem 06657"
    Examinando a situação, verifiquei que o processo atualiza o Registro Info com as informações de cotação, mas nesse passo, o sistema reclama que a condição WOBT não está cadastrada para o esquema de cálculo RM0002.
    Verifiquei o esquema de cálculo, e confirmei que essa condição não estava cadastrada. Realizei o cadastro da condição no esquema, mas continuo encontrando o mesmo erro.
    Durante as análises, verifiquei que essa condição é utilizada no esquema de determinação de Pedido de Compras, entre outras coisas e consequentemente estava cadastrado no esquema RM0000.
    Por acaso alguém tem alguma idéia de como resolver esse problema? Procurei notas, posts em fóruns, porém sem sucesso.
    Desde já obrigado pela ajuda!
    Att,
    Raphael.

    problema resolvido! Houve um problema em uma configuração que foi refeita e já está td ok!

  • Partner application access to portal login info

    How can an SSO partner application (Java) tell whether or not a user has logged in to Portal?
    I need to log activity in a public application servlet, so I'd like to log the user as PUBLIC if not logged in or as their actual userid.
    I don't seem to have access to this info until the user has visited a secure part of the app.
    Any pointers would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Rob

    DIY answer ...
    The cludge I used to get round this was ...
    Make a PL/SQL item which displays a Login or Logout link as appropriate, based on the current userid from portal.wwctx_api.get_user.
    The login link goes to a secure portal page called FORCE_LOGIN, passing a URL parameter called nextPageURL which contains the URL of the next page to show after the login is complete. You can use portal.wwpro_api_parameters.get_value( '_pageid', 'a'); to help build the current page URL if you want to retun to the current page.
    The FOIRCE_LOGIN page contains a PL/SQL item which builds an IFRAME whos src is a URL to my app servlet ForceLoginServlet, passing on the nextPageURL parameter. Use portal.wwpro_api_parameters.get_value( 'nextPageURL', 'a'); to help with that.
    The ForceLoginServlet is a secure servlet (set up in web.xml) so that forces a silent authentication to my app. All the servlet does is display HTML to redirect back to the URL in nextPageURL.
    Horrible! But it does the job.
    Anyone who know a better way of doing this, please tell me.

  • How to create a report to bring all data from two different Info providers

    Hi All,
    I have a peculier problem while creating a report. I have two custom info providers one DSO and another Cube. There are only two common fields between these two Info providers . I need to create a report such that the report displays all the values from DSO but user can have the selection option on one of the fields in the Cube.
    Here is an example
    DSO Contents:
    DocNum-     DocItem-     DocText-     Amount-      Quantity
    10000----     10----            ABC----          100----           10
    10001----     20----     DSN----     200----     10
    10005----     20----     DSN----     200----     10
    Z1003----     10----     CAN----     500----     1
    Cube Contents
    DocNum-     DocItem-     Date-----          InvoiceAmt
    10000----     10----     1/10/2009----         50
    10001----     20----      2/20/2009----        100
    10005----     20----      2/25/2009----        100
    The report needs to be displayed as shown below when the user selects value for date from 1/10/2009 to 2/20/2009
    DocNum-     DocItem-     DocText-     Amount-      Quantity
    10000----     10----     ABC----     100----     10
    10001----     20----     DSN----     200----     10
    I hope this was clear for you to understand. I would really appricate if any one can answers about how to resolve this problem. I cannot add the date filed to DSO and I also have Doc Num and Item as the user selection fields in the report.
    Thank you all in advance and i would really appreciate for your suggestions.

    Hi chinna,
    Two possible options, I can think of now, but both of them may be a compromise with performance.
    1. create an infoset and then a query on top of it, provided we have a one to one relation in both the targets. That is, the combination of doc and item number is not duplicate in either cube or ODS.
    2. Create a master data object of doc and item number and have date as an attribute. Load that from cube data and make date as navigational attr.
    Use this navgntal attr for selection in your report.
    Let us know, if you require any further info.

  • End routine to populate Info-cube.

    Hi ,
    Is it possible to load fileds of a Info-cube using End routines in the following scenairos.
    1.Loading fields of info-cube by referencing/using a master data table in End routine.
    2.Loading fields of info-cube by referencing/using a DSO fields  in End routine.
    3.Loading fields of info-cube by referencing/using a fields of another info-cube in End routine.
    Please advise.

    Hi Stalin,
    Before answering your question you need to understand something about "End routine" and "Expert routine".
    End Routine:
    - Result_fields and Result_package are available
    - End routine contains only those fields available in Data target.
    Start Routine:
    - Source_fields and Source_package are available
    - Start routine contains only those fields coming from source.
    Expert Routine:
    -  Source_fields, Source_package, Result_fields and Result_package are available
    So Now if you want write code to look up into some other cube, in look up you may need to test condition using source fields, in that case " Expert Routine" is only the option.
    For Ex
    my data target contains : x,y and z fields (it becomes result_field)
    source contains : a field ( it becomes source_field)
    now if i want to write look up code like this " select x,y and z fields from other cube where my a field value = other cube a field value. here u r accessing both S_F as well as R_F. So only the option is "EXPERT ROUTINE"
    or else u want to write code only with R_F then "End routine " is enough.
    Thanks,
    Gowd

    K,
    Try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To find that Library folder, if you are using Lion, use Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart.
    Next, make sure that you are not connected to the internet. Then to to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars Folder and remove any files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Use the same method as listed above to get to the correct Library Folder. Log out/in, or restart and check iCal for functionality.

    I recently broke my 2008 macbook. i was able to use an external hardrive to back up my data onto My Passport. I was going to buy a new computer but a friend told me sher had an older version of the iMac. (not sure how old but it doesnt have a camera if that helps) i was able to hook it up and turn it on but i ran into a few problems. 1) the "authentic" user or whatever it says is someone who previously used the computer. i added me as a user but im not sure how to make me the main user. 2) after hooking up My Passport, i was able to drag my files and copy them to the desktop.(i think i did it correctly) now, i dont know how to make my hard drive and applications and iformation the "main " info. The current apps on the iMac are super old versions of iTunes and iPhoto and such. 3) while trying to open the apps from my macbook on the iMac, it said it didnt have the right software to open these apps.
    I am so computer illiterate so someone please help!!! Also, i do not have internet in my new apartment yet so if there is a way to make this happen without using the internet that would be preferred. sorry for the horrible spelling and poorly written paragraph.
