IPod does not display album cover art

I recently updated to iTunes 9 and also bought a new MacBook Pro. Then I synced my old iPod color with my new Mac. Since then my iPod does not display the album art work anymore. I was looking through iTunes 9 for the option to display the artwork on the iPod because I remembered that setting from older versions but could not find it. Does iTunes 9 just asume my iPod can't display covers because it is a 4th gen even though it is the color version?

hi mduran, no i could not find any solution. My iPod (60gb, probably the same as yours) is filled to the top and has been before the iTunes update and then it worked fine. I think this is a bug in iTunes. It's interesting to see that this happens in the Mac and Windows version of iTunes. Is there any way of telling Apple about that so it will be in the next update?

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

  • IPod Photo not displaying album artwork

    My iPod Photo was displaying all of the album artwork until I created playlists. I created 6 playlists and then all of my artwork disappeared, including artwork from songs not in playlists. It still shows the artwork when the iPod is connected to my computer. Does anyone know what the deal is with this?

  • IPod Touch not displaying album art in "now playing" view

    I recently migrated my iTunes library from my iMac to my MacBook. I did not experience any problems with the migration, and did it over my wireless home network.
    Since then, some of my album artwork will not show in the "now playing" view on my iPod touch, but they do show in cover flow and in iTunes. I have synced numerous times, but that has not solved my problem.
    Help! This is driving me crazy!

    I called Apple and was told that I needed to restore the iPod. The problem is that I had purchased and installed the January upgrade on my iMac and not my MacBook.
    I restored the iPod on the iMac and then synced to the MacBook.
    Problem solved!

  • While playing, Front Row does not display album art but a white image only

    When I go through my music library via Front Row, the album art is still visible, however, as soon as I play a track, the cover disappears and there's a white square instead that, as usual, changes its position from the left to the right side. Could that be due to size limitations? My album art is 2400 x 2400, approximately 4 MB each. Thanks.

    Same for me on my Mac Mini: I can see the shared pictures but can't see the ones in the local library. Funny thing is that I can see that library from my other Mac.
    Also I noticed that one picture appeared in the middle of the (empty) slideshow, only 1 of 67. In the list view, those pictures appear normally, as you can see in this screenshot http://d.pr/eiXB
    I'm a first-time iLife user, so I don't know if the issue is '11-specific.

  • IPod does not display music in the Cloud

    I'm at my wits end to get my iPod to see the 5500 selections in the Cloud. I've reinstalled iTunes, I've restored the iPod software backing up first, and restored the iPod software with no backup and resynced. Nothing worked. If I manually sync to iTunes with Match turned off, I get the full library on the iPod. When I turn Match back on in the iPod, Match wipes the library off the iPod, as advertised, but then displays the iCloud icon for a few seconds, then an empty library and "No Music. You can download music from iTunes." Nothing I have done has produced an iPod that sees the Cloud. I haven't seen this problem on any discussions or help sites so far, and have not called Apple Tech Support directly, hoping to avoid a fee. HELP! I've wasted two days trying to make this thing work.

    Hello All, and especially to Michael Allbritton,
    Well, for what it is worth, I finally got the Cloud music appear on my iPod. It took a lot of tweaking and fixing of three different iTunes accounts I had, including ensuring I was using the right account on both the iPod and the MacBook. I had mismatches between the two devices, PLUS I had differing account passwords on the two devices. It took a while for me to track all this down, partly because of my own confusing naming conventions,, and partly because it takes time to redo the whole Cloud process or restore an iPod, which I did several times. Patience paid off.
    So it is working now. Whether it is all working absolutely correctly or not, I don't know because I haven't delved into the details. But at least I have my music stuff working on the iPod without 30+ Gigs of storage used up.
    One other thing; I noticed on some of the posts that members were flaming others for explaining what worked for them which caused others to use the technique to have to go back to square one. We are all in the same boat on this new technology, and personally I have run through the installation, sync, and reformatting the iPod a number of times, using various suggestions form the community. Don't shoot people for trying things out and reporting what happened to them. Don't expect to be an early adapter and not have glitches. Don't expect every solution offered to match your specific problem. And for gods sake read the f*cking instructions Apple has already posted on what does what to whom. It isn't rocket science, and asking basic questions in this forum seems to be a waste of time when the answer is already on web.
    Just my opinion. I could be wrong.

  • ITunes does not display Album name or song names

    Just got my new Macbook. Loaded a few CDs into iTunes and then plugged in my Nano. Neither iTunes nor the Nano display the Album and Song info. Is there some setting or configuration I need to do first?

    After doing a bit of searching I find that the song/album info is not on commercial CDs. I need to be "on-line" so that the info can be retrieved from a database. Hmmmm.........
    I will give that a try.

  • Ipod does not display all songs correctly

    Some of the songs on my ipod and displayed correctly and work fine while some others do not. For example, when I search for music under the artist section of my ipod it might say an artist has only one song when in reality their are ten songs by that artist on the pod. The only way to acess the other nine songs on the ipod is to go to music then select them through SONG. Everything is updated, and i even rebooted my ipod and reinstalled all the files. This is the second ipod i have had trouble with and this one is brand new. ***

  • My Ipod does not display any music

    Hello,
    I plugged my iPod into my dad's computer the other day. After this I noticed that my iPod said: No music.
    It seemed like everything had been erased (although itunes never asked if I wanted to sync) except for the pictures.
    When I look at the memory, it still shows the same amount of GigaBite as before I plugged it in. But instead of 30GB music and 50GB video it shows 80GB miscellaneous.
    Does anyone know how to fix this??
    Thanks
    Sylke

    If a hard reset of the iPod doesn't resolve it, your only option is to connect the iPod to an iTunes library and restore it to factory settings.  The iPod's hard disk or software could be damaged or corrupted.
    To reset the iPod, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • REMOTE app on iPhone does not display Cover Art

    I use the Apple REMOTE App on my iPhone to control my iTunes music library on a Mac. The REMOTE App controls the iTunes playback properly. However, the Cover Art for each song does not display on the "song" screen - showing the song currently playing. Across my iPhone screen (where the Cover Art should appear) are the words containing album of the song). The name of the song and album correctly appear at the top of the screen.
    What is interesting is that when I hit the back arrow (left side top on song screen), all of the Cover Art appears in small thumbnails. The Cover Art also appears in other displays (for example, the currently-playing Album) using REMOTE on my iPhone. This means that the cover art is being transmitted to my iPhone - HOWEVER IT DOES NOT DISPLAY ON THE SONG SCREEN.
    Can anyone kindly help me resolve this - because I would really like the Cover Art to display properly on the song screen.  Thank you.  Dale

    Nezmo, This is really unbelievable.  I have suffered from the issue I described for SEVERAL YEARS.  Today, for some reason I decided to make this post on the Apple discussion board.  And, today the issue was fixed by Apple.  I just downloaded the update to the REMOTE app and the cover art now shows beautifully on my iPhone 6 plus.  Thanks.  Dale

  • Displaying Album Cover When Song Played on iPod

    I have downloaded and synched several songs. When I play the songs on my iPod, it flashes the album cover for the album the songs came from. Very nice.
    I recently copied one of my CD's into iTunes and then synched all of the songs on the CD to my iPod. When I play a song from the album, no album cover appears.
    Why not and what can I do to display an album cover when I play a song from the CE?

    Some music downloading sites have the artwork and artists/album/song name info pre-connected to the audio file through ID3 tagging. You can put the information in yourself by right-clicking the song/album (in iTunes) and clicking "Get Info". You can then edit the song name, artist, album, etc. You can also add/remove artwork, I simply search on Google images and then copy and paste it into the "Artwork" spot. You can also right click on the album and then click "Get Album Artwork", although that doesn't always work.
    Also if you go to the file in Windows Explorer you can edit the ID3 tags for album, year, artist, etc.

  • My iPod does not show artists if they're in a compilation album anymore. How do I get them back?

    My iPod does not show artists if they're in a compilation album anymore. How do I get them back?

    You can find the Home button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar.
    Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end side of the location bar.<br />
    During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.<br />
    If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.<br />
    You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.
    To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:
    * Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
