IOS 8.3 deletes album artwork off iPod?

I have a fifth generation iPod touch which I have on manually managing music since we have two computers in the house.  As soon as i updated to iOS 8.3 the album artwork no longer displays on my iPod but when i plug it in to the computer and right lick get info the artwork is there.  I would like to fix it without restoring as i have 6000+ songs and it takes days to redo my iPod with correct album cover and single covers etc.  any thoughts? 
Ive already deleted the cache folder in music-itunes folder on my laptop and well as resetting the iPod and its settings
please help I'm getting so fed up with apple lately

- Since it seems you already did this

- Then the only thing left is to try the following
delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Late is a restore

  • Every time I try and delete an album from my ipod using itunes but doing so manually as was suggested, it is also deleted from the itunes library that i have set up.  How do I just delete albums from my ipod and not loose them from my pc itunes library?

    I have an extensive itunes library on my pc.  I want to delete albums from my ipod but still keep them in my itunes library.  Everytime I try to delete by right clicking on the album and choosing delete, I also loose the album from itunes.  I have just gotten an old iphone and put just classical and jazz on the iphone and want to delete those albums from my ipod but alas I will be loosing them from the iphone as well as soon as I sync with itunes in the future.  I put settings into manual manage music but still the albums go off itunes.  Any suggestions?

    I'm thinking you sync to your computer over Wi-Fi, if correct, switch to sync when connected to iTunes, turn off sync over Wi-Fi. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

  • Since the update, I cannot delete album artwork!

    How do I delete album art off of my Itunes ablums. It's for a Sony Vaio using windows 7.

    The new iTunes 12 Get Info dialog lacks right-click context menus (at least for now) but it still 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 centre 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. (With Chrome I get a one pixel wraparound so tend to go for a temporary local copy anyway - not sure whose bug this is, but it isn't new.)
    If you have multiple images embedded drag the one you want to be the primary artwork to the leftmost position.
    Replace/Remove All Artwork
    The top left image box can be used to add or delete art from multiple tracks. In either case all existing artwork in all tracks is replaced/removed.
    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)

  • How can I delete albums from my ipod nano 9th gen

    How can I get Ipod nano to display Albums when connected to itunes?
    How can I delete Albums from my ipod.....either using the device stand alone or when connected via itunes?
    Both the above actions are easy using other devices and software ( Samsung MP3 and Windows Media Player...for example)
    But after a year of owning my Nano I still cannot figure out how to do either of these tasks.

    Just re read myoriginal question and realised I had not explained what I want to do very well.....
    If I connect my ipod 9th gen to itunes.
    How do I get it (itunes) to display albums and then delete them?
    Finding them amongst the many thousands of track listing and then deleting them one track at a time is extremly tedious........
    Surely there must be a way I can get itunes to display albums and the pick the one I want to delete?

  • How to delete album artwork from itunes?

    i have tried the clear downloaded artwork, but this didn't work. is there any other way that i can delete album artwork from itunes? i am assuming the artwork is embedded in the files, since the clear downloaded artwork didn't work.

    I think this might have been answered before, but this is what I know.
    One way I'm aware of to clear artwork is to do a properties of any album you want to clear the artwork from, go to artwork, select the artwork and delete it.
    Iirc, iTunes holds the artwork in it's database and not physically with the audio file. I normally use "Mp3tag" to add my artwork to albums so the artwork is embedded in the audio files, I tend to steer clear of adding artwork in iTunes itself. Just be weary when adding images to the audio files themselves: The audio files will increase in size of the image itself, I think that's why iTunes doesn't physically add it to the files.

  • How do I delete album artwork that came w/ a brand new ipod =no music on it

    I recently purchased a new ipod Classic (80 gig) at a nationwide electronics store. The first time I turned it on it had an album cover of Manu Chao on the Main Menu. There is no music on the ipod yet the album cover is there. The store's corporate office says that they sell returned ipods as new ones. I am guessing that since there is no music on the ipod there is no way to delete this album cover through iTunes. It appears to be deeply embedded in another file or ID3 Tag ... I don't understand much at all about where to start. If anyone has encountered this problem or if anyone knows how to find where the image is stored (which file) and remove it, please let me know. You all are great! Thanks!

    Hi, rebuilding your iPod's artwork cache should sort this out...
    *Rebuilding Artwork Cache*
    To rebuild the artwork cache, connect your iPod to iTunes. Locate the iPod in the Sources pane on the left-hand side, then select the Music tab. Remove the tick from *Display album artwork on your iPod*, sync the iPod, reselect the option & sync again.
    You are probably best making a samll single album playlist to do a trial sync with. That way it should be easy to tell if the unwanted artwork has been removed. If that still doesn't work then do a full restore.

  • Updated my ipod touch 4g to ios 5 and now album artwork all mixed up

    Updated my ipod touch 4g to ios5, and now album artwork mixed up. Correct on itunes.

    That is a common problem.  Look at some of the previous posts on the right hand side of this page under the heading More Like this.

  • Can't sync album artwork to ipod touch and music is on many different computers that I can't always get to easily.

    Okay, so, I upgraded my iPod touch to iOS5. When I did that, I got everything back, but I'm missing a ton of album artwork and some of my music has the wrong artwork from completely different artists that I already had on my iPod. For example, I have some albums by the band Lacuna Coil. The album cover for the album Comalies is being shown as the album cover for my Marilyn Manson albums and my Combichrist albums. That's not the only album cover that's being repeated on different artists though. But also, a bunch of my album artwork just isn't there at all, period. It's gone. Now, before I got the iOS5 update, I would just hook my iPod up to iTunes, click on "Mollenstein's iPod" and click on "music" so I could just add the album artwork straight to the iPod because a lot of my music is not on the same computer, so it was just easier to do it that way. After this completely stupid iOS5 update, I can't do that. It will say it's syncing when I try to do it, but it will list off songs that it is updating that aren't even on the album I was trying to put the album artwork on. The album art for those songs didn't change, but neither did the one I was trying to change. About 2000+ of my songs are on my old PC that is a fossil and is slower than a fossil and it would take me hours and hours and hours and hours to fix the album artwork on it because it has an extremely old version of iTunes, so I can't hook my iPod directly to it (the fossil computer does not have access to the internet, so I can't update the iTunes). Therefore, I will have to get a flash drive, transfer music 2 gigs at a time to a different computer, fix the album covers, then sync to my iPod. I guess I can do that if I absolutely have to, but I was wondering if there was an easier way to do that or if I'm supposed to be able to sync album art directly to my iPod and the update is just making it completely ********. Please help, I'm frustrated, and I am too busy to have to mess with crap like this.I'm about to just go back to collecting CD's.

  • Remove Album Artwork from iPod

    I recently had to reset my iPod. Previously, I attempted to maximize my available space on my 2 GB iPod by changing settings to do not show my album artwork. I went to edit, preferences and clicked on music as the on-line instructions indicated. I could not find the option to turn off my artwork. It seems like before my reset, my iPod would hold approx 500 songs. Now is holds less than 400. Is this because of the artwork?

    Hello NationwideGA,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There used to be an option from under your iPod's Summary tab in iTunes that allow you to choose whether or not you wanted to include artwork on your iPod. However, as of iTunes 9, this option is no more and the default is that artwork is included on your iPod.
    So now the only way to remove all the artwork from your iPod is to remove it from each of your tracks in iTunes and I'm not exactly sure that is something you want to do. Even if you did, it wouldn't free up a significant amount of space on your iPod overall. At best a very small fraction a percentage.
    Not sure why you can only sync fewer songs now, but have you tried restoring your iPod yet?

  • Re: Deleting Album Artwork

    I have some albums that I can not get album artwork for. All the Beatles albums, for example. So, I thought I would drag album images off of Amazon into iTunes. Of course, I did not realize that I was only adding the image to one song at a time. The first image was too small, the second one only went to the second song.
    How do I delete these images?
    And how do I add artwork so that it will cover all songs in a given lbum?

    Right click (control+click if using a one button mouse) on the file you want to remove the artwork from, choose Get Info then the Artwork tab, click on the image and press the delete button then OK.
    To add artwork to multiple items at once without having to do them one at a time (e.g. all the songs in an album) highlight your selection (click on the first track in your list, hold down the shift key and click on the last). Right click anywhere in the selection and choose Get Info, when you are asked if you want to edit multiple items say yes. Drag your artwork to the small artwork box down on the right and choose OK

  • Album Artwork on iPod question?

    I know that you can import pictures to use as album artwork in iTunes, and I did that for all of the albums that didn't have album artwork pictures. However, when I did that, it would take the songs that I put pictures on there, right off of my iPod. If I took the imported pictures off of iTunes and left if blank, it would put the songs (and blank album artwork) back onto my iPod. Can someone help me?

    Hmm when you import them
    do you drag and drop? if so, that may be the problem.
    try and save the picture and then import it and see if that works

  • Deleting album artwork from Itunes 6 after upgrading to Itunes 7

    I recently upgraded to Itunes 7, and I want to delete some of my album artwork that I added in Itunes 6. I backed up my entire library and imported it into Itunes 7 after I installed it. Some of my album artwork consists or low-res clipart, and I want to update my entire library with new album artwork. When I choose "get album artwork", Itunes doesn't update my music with the new artwork. I also tried the "get info" submenu, and there isn't any artwork listed in the window, though it shows the artwork in the album srcolling window. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    This info is included in the song tag, you have to edit the individual song tag to change the artwork. To do this, right click on the song with bad artwork, then choose the first option "get info". A box will open, click on the artwork tab (you may have several pieces or artwork here--delete the ones you don't like. It's possible the good art you want will be one of the choices. Make sure this appears first in the list and then you'll see it in iTunes. If you need to add the artwork, click the add button and browse/find the artwork you want to add.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I get album artwork off my phone onto my PC?

    I wiped my old PC and while I saved all my old MP3 files, I didn't think to save any of the old artwork.
    Of course, the files that Apple knows has the artwork but there are plenty that Apple doesn't recognize which I'd spent days gathering.
    I haven't sync'd my phone since the PC upgrade so all the album artwork is still on there.
    Any way to get that artwork off or am I stuck with having to go find it again? 
    If I do get it off my phone, am I right that it will be the lower rez version and I'd still have to go find the higher res images if I want it displayed propoerly on my PC?
    Thanks in advance!!

    You can do this with 3rd party software such as Touch Copy (pc or mac) or PhoneView (mac).
