IPhone 5 on ios7 displaying ipod artwork as diagonal line

I have just recently synced my iPhone with os 7 with iTunes. With my old phone it showed the artist images - now it shows a diagonal line with their names...could someone please assist in getting the images back please

I am having issues too. Sometimes when I move a reminder to another list and remove the "Remind me on a day" setting, the task just disappears! I have used many to-do management programs throughout the years and feature-wise Apple's Reminders app is one of the simplest. I love Apple's hardware and brand, but throughout their ecosystem I have been encountering more and more baffling software bugs to the point I notice myself feeling relieved when a more involved function (such as exporting photos from iPhoto on my iPad) works properly. "It Just Works" is starting to become a mockery. I am willing to trade advanced power-user features for software stability and reliability, but I am concerned about Apple's management when it has so many resources and can't even get a simple task list app right.

Display iPod artwork in iTunes

It is possible to have artwork from songs on your iPod show up in iTunes without having the songs in your library?
I listen to my iPod at work every day by plugging it into my computer (MacBook Pro). My main library is on my home computer (iMac G5).I don't want to transfer all my songs from the iPod to the MacBook, but it would be nice to be able to see the artwork in iTunes.
Any way to do this?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.
The cover art displays just fine on the iPod (when it's not plugged into the laptop) and it also displays for what little music I have in my iTunes library on the laptop.
What I want is for the cover art for music on the iPod to display in iTunes on the laptop when the iPod is plugged in and playing.
Might not be possible, but I don't see why it shouldn't be.

Some of the album artwork on my iPod is wrong. I've tried to change it many times but it doesn't change. I've decided that the easiest thing to do now would be to NOT display album artwork on my iPod. How do I set my iPod to NOT display album art?

Why don't you, instead of taking time to do that, just backup, and then restore your iPod?
Just a suggestion..

Displaying Albulm Artwork on iPod

PLEASE HELP!
When I first got my iPod I added all of my CD's. I was using an older version of iTunes and so none of the albulm artwork went on.
I recently downloaded the latest version of iTunes and was able to get all of the artwork for all of my CD's, which I can see on iTunes.
I've selected "display albulm artwork" in my iPod options, but it will only display the artwork for those albulms I've recently added.
How do I get iTunes to transfer over all of the new artwork for my original CD's to my ipod for display?

I had the same problem. What you want to do is right click on your mouse, over the album artwork in the viewer in iTunes. When you right click, it will give the option of Copying the artwork. Click "Copy" and then open up the album you want through the browser, go to edit, click on "Select All" and the songs in that particular album will highlight. Then, right click once more anywhere in the list of songs, and click get info, then when it asks you if you want to edit settings for multiple items, press ok. When the information window opens, you're going to see a box in the lower right hand corner of the window that says "Artwork." Right click on it, and the same album artwork that you copied from the artwork viewer will copy to that box in the information window, as long as you press "Paste." Then, in the checkbox next to the artwork box, check it off, and that information will transfer to your iPod, because everything on that screen is information that iTunes automatically syncs to the iPod, as long as you tell it to do so. It worked for me, hope it works for you too.

160gb ipod classic won't display album artwork...sometimes

I have a 160GB iPod Classic (version 2.0.4 PC), and ran into a strange problem regarding displaying album artwork. Here's what I can describe:
--> When browsing through albums, any albums that have been added to my iPod or had their info changed since a certain time (not sure of the exact date but I believe it to be July 2013) do not display artwork.
--> If these albums are played, one song from the album will not display artwork, but all the rest will. I can't detect any set pattern as to which song won't display artwork once I update it, but I'm sure there's some pattern.
--> All the album artwork is displayed on Cover Flow and on iTunes, but not in these places.
--> It doesn't matter whether I downloaded the artwork directly through iTunes (i.e. clicked "Get Album Artwork") or put in artwork from a file on my computer, this happens literally every single time.

Probably, the easiest way to resolve this is to copy the artwork from one song on an album and paste it into every song on that album.
In your iTunes Library, choose an album that has artwork issues; choose one track that has the artwork and copy it. Then:
the slightly longer method is to check each song individually, until you find the one with the missing artwork. Paste (the copy previously made) from one of the other tracks on the album.
a slightly quicker method is to highlight all the songs on that album (make sure it is just that one album) and paste the artwork into the box.
Sync the iPod with your iTunes Library.

Where's the "Display album artwork on your iPod" preference?

Everything seems to work fine with iTunes 9.0.1 and my iPod Classic 80G, except that it doesn't seem possible to remove album artwork from the iPod. I just read the article "[Viewing album artwork on iPod|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2317?viewlocale=en_US]" and I know that I just have to deselect the "Display album artwork on your iPod" preference in iTunes. The problem is that, after selecting my iPod under the Devices section in the iTunes Source pane, I can't find any such preference in the Music tab. I can see two radio buttons ("Entire music library" and "Selected playlists, artits, and genres") and one checkbox ("Include music videos"), but no "Display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox.
Any idea?

Since when has the left hand known what the right hand is doing in any organiszation.
Can you give a reference supporting your statement ?
From Apple? No. Plenty of threads in here though, both builds of iTunes 9 released for Mac & PC have been missing this feature and people have given feedback. This is either a policy change and it will remain that way or it was accidentally omitted during the redesign in which case it may reappear in a future build. Either way the control isn't magically missing from just your copy, it's the same for all of us.

Iphone 4S display has faint diagonal lines.

Is anyone else experiencing faint diagonal lines on their iPhone 4S screen? They are most noticeable on bright, solid colors. they are very faint but visible enough to detract from the display quality. Does anyone wlse have this problem? Should I make a warranty claim?

Yeah I have that probablem to but it only happens when I'm not looking straight at the screen. I think it's the same with all iPhones (at least retina ones) cause I got a iPhone 4

ITunes will no longer display Album Artwork

I recenly had my computer cleand and afterwards iTunes will not display album artwork. The artwork is still on my iPod but not on my computer. It displays a messages "iTunes is unable to display album covers on this computer". It all worked fine before my computer was cleaned out. Any ideas?

when you open the sync option go to pictures and make sure all of them are checked

Ipod artwork

After updating my ipod yesterday with the latest updates...my ipod will no longer display the artwork it DOES have on it while playing...like it used to. I DO have the "display artwork on ipod" option checked. itunes showed a que (circling arrows) which suggested that artwork was being transferred...or something...but nothing changed. are there any answers out there?

Hey Thornton Melon,
Have you tried resetting the iPod? If not, see this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
If you look at the iPod in iTunes on the summary tab, it indicates the version, and if up-to-date, the update button is grayed out.
So the next option is to reinstall the iPod operating system by doing a "Restore to Factory Settings"
This is usually not an issue when you use one PC for iPod and all the songs/videos, etc, currently on the iPod are in your iTunes and play without issues.
So if you want to restore, this article provides how:

Hope this helps,

Where's Display Album Artwork option? It's missing

I've read the document, I know where it's supposed to be...but it's not there.
My friend is having issues with her iPod Touch displaying incorrect artwork on her iPod, even though it shows correctly in iTunes. I told her to unsync the artwork then resync it. We connected her iPod, selected it under Devices, clicked on the Music tab....but the option to Display Album Artwork on iPod just isn't there.
Any ideas? She's running 7.5 on a G5.

There is no option for the ipod touch to not sync artwork, it just does, you can't turn it on or off. If you are having problems with artwork mismatched, the thing to do is to turn off music syncing all together, sync the ipod, so all the music is erased from it. Then turn music syncing back on and let it resync. Make sure you have your music still in itunes or backed up before you erase it from the ipod, it will erase it.

I just updated my iphone to ios7 and I keep getting stuck at the 'Set up your iPhone' screen. I click 'Restore from Itunes Backup', but it only ends up restarting after restoring and fails to get past the 'Set up your iPhone' screen. Any ideas?

Normally, I would suggest restoring the iPad and uninstall and reinstall iTunes but you have done both of those things - more times than you ever imagined!
Have you thought about turning auto syncing off?
Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
If you do this you can backup the iPad right away before it syncs. You may want to go into all of the iTunes tabs and just make sure that all of the current content on the iPad is selected to sync before you actually do sync.
This doesn't solve the problem, but it would prevent the automatic sync and erasing content. Hopefully, in the next few days- when iOS 5 is released - you will also be relieved of this weird iPad behavior - since the iOS devices are supposed to become PC free.
BTW - and this is no excuse for what you are experiencing, but I have found that some of the game apps that I had on my iPad turned out to be quite troublesome and after I removed them, my problems went away. I know that is almost sacrilege with regard to the Angry Birds addiction .... But I'm just saying ...

Iphone 4 Used as iPod.

I am currently using my old iphone 4 as an ipod - how do I keep the phone lit when it is playing? My Nano ipod used to always stay lit throught the duration of play and I used to like seeing the artwork.

Okay thanks, best not to do that then - will just have to put with a blank screen.

Problems with itunes displaying ipod

Hi All,
When I plug my ipod into my computer itunes recognises it has been plugged in but the ipod does not show in the menu bar on the right hand side. The panel at the top of itunes tells me my ipod is connected, updating etc but I cannot access the device. I have tried resetting and restarting the ipod and my computer. Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks

OK to drag this thread back on topic:
I think the "sync" thing is irrelevant anyways.
What I tried in the end was viewing my iPod in iTunes,
navigating through to the check box for "display album artwork",
UNcheck it, and click apply.
At this point, iTunes said, with NO confirmation "Are you sure?" dialog, "DELETING ARTWORK ON iPOD" !! :-O I was not pleased
However I then re-selected the "display album artwork" box and clicked Apply. The process took about 10 minutes to complete.
When I then disconnected the iPod, the black squares were gone, and the artwork was NOT deleted (phew!) and was displaying correctly. I was pleased
The amount of "other" megabytes on the display in iTunes for my iPod's contents had shrunk.
I dunno what all this actually did - are the artwork files embedded in the MP4 files on the iPod? Or are they stored seperately and linked to them?
I'm wondering if the "black square" thing is caused by an MP4 having an embedded image, and there also being a conflicting image file elsewhere on the hard drive? But this is just guessing.

Error When Trying to Re-check "Display Album Artwork"

Here's my issue, I have a 30 gb photo ipod and I added album artwork in iTunes to all of my music on my ipod. The artwork displays in iTunes, but does not show up on the iPod. When I go to iPod options in iTunes and uncheck, then recheck "Display album artwork on your iPod", I get "The iPod "(myname)" cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-50)." I updated to the latest iPod software, using iPod Updater 2005-06-26 and I also have the latest iTunes software (4.9). I see other people with the same type of error, but nobody getting the same error number as me.

Wow. I sure am impressed with the amount of help available to the average new iPod user! I started using the iPod (60gb/using newest iTunes on XP) about one week ago, and have had about three problems - all of which were resolved without panic or hassle by simply browsing forums or checking the manual.
I thought it was pretty cool to be able to place the artwork on the 'Pod while the song is playing, so I started throwing the art from amazon.com (an invaluable resource for album art!) to the 'Pod. Wouldn't you believe it - nothing showed up! iTunes showed it - I could see it - but nothing on the 'Pod! I tried the "check and uncheck show album art icon," at which time I started getting the "Cannot update [my iPod] - Unknown error -50" error. A bit of searching and WHAMMO! The answer is upon me! Unload all the music, add the art to the songs in iTunes, and reload the songs! I'm sure it'll work like a charm (without a doubt!).
I usually have limited amounts of time to tinker with the 'Pod, so I'm glad things can be solved so quickly! I'm also glad I've only got 5.6gb of tunes on the 'Pod that I have to re-load! My heart goes out to those who have customized artist info/track listings, however... As well as those who have the full 60 filled... It's got to be terrible to get news that you've got to unload that fine piece of machinery (apparently you can't say "s*cker" or "su*ka"). I'll definitely be sure to make any modifications (aside from volume controls from song to song) in iTunes before loading the songs to the 'Pod!
Hurray!
