Is it possible to show the album artwork on a shared itunes library

I use itunes in my home and office environments. I store all the content on a server and use the shared library to play it back on my stereo in a different room - or on my laptop in the office using the library on the office 'music server'. It seems to be a more reliable way of accessing the library than mapping the server as a network drive. However, it is still a streaming connection - would it not be more network/CPU efficient to transfer complete files or file chunks?
Anyway - my question is about album artwork - when operating in shared mode like this, a sharing user (my main player connected to my stereo) doesn't display all the nice artwork that itunes has downloaded to the library.
Is there a way to do this?

If you mean the Map Module display, the only way to make use of that outside of Lightroom is to do a screen capture and then use the screen capture.

  • My ipod warranty ran out a few months ago I have a nano 5th gen. The problem is that if I want to play a song it would show the album artwork for about 3 seconds and go back to the main menu with no music playing. It'snot the head phones or ear jack. help

  • I have several albums in my library that do not show the album artwork.  It states it is not available in the iTunes store.  In the past I could copy and past album artwork.

    I have Windows 7 on my laptop and the latest version of iTunes.  I have several albums in my library that do not show the album artwork.  iTunes states that it is not available, even though the album is available on iTunes.  In the past, I could copy album artwork and then paste it on my albums in iTunes.  In the lates version of iTunes, a past option does not seem to be available.

    JPGronek,
    There are 3 ways to get custom art into the Artwork box:
    copy/paste
    drag-n-drop
    Add from a file location.
    In various iTunes releases, it is common that one of the the three is broken.  Try one of the others.

    Hi TheGuru146,
    It sounds like the iPod isn't restoring correctly. Try putting the it into Disk Mode manually and then restoring the iPod again as described in the article linked below.

    iPod nano (7th generation)
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it has a charge.
    Reset the device by pressing the Sleep and Home buttons simultaneously until the display shows the Apple logo. This should take about eight seconds.
    When the Apple logo appears, press and hold the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk Mode.

  • How do I view a movie I rented and downloaded to my computer on my apple TV. The ATV is not seeing the rented movie in my shared itunes library? I can't seem to transfer the rental to the ATV from the computer!

    Dear friends,
    Thank you for responding to my problem so promptly. Frankly, I did not expect to hear from people so soon! The fact is that as soon as I posted the question, I was shown a number of similar queries and managed to find the answer. I have to say it's not intuitive! I have an apple TV original version. Apparently I had the ATV on streaming and not syncing. Streaming does not allow you to stream a rental from your computer whereas you can sync and transfer the rental from the computer!
    Thanks again.

  • Why doesn't the music app show the album artwork?

    When I open the music app, everything is fine, all except for some albums are missing thier artwork. The funny thing is, when you tap on the album, and it flips up and shows all the songs in that album, the album artwork shows up on the side, but when you go back to the albums, the artwork isn't there again. I know that the artwork isn't avaliable sometimes, but in this case, the artwork is there somewhere, because it shows up when you open the album. Is there some way I can get it back? Thanks

    Sync with iTunes on your computer selecting to remove the affected albums from your iPad and then sync again selecting to move them back to the iPad.

  • Is it possible to remove the album artwork in iOS 7's music app?

    I can only view 4 artists at a time when I sort my music in the iOS 7 music app by artist.  Before, I could see more artists at a time, making it quicker and easier to find the music that I want while on the go.  Also, when I finally find the artist that I want to listen to, my music is automatically sorted by album, giving me no option to view all the songs without the annoying album art.  Apple took something that was very simple, and made it more complicated time consuming.
    Is anyone aware of any options/settings that I may have overlooked that could solve my problem?

    To remove the album art, select all tracks in the album and Get Info. Check the box next to the Artwork field, hit delete and close the window. This should delete the artwork.

  • Can you guys, I don't know MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO CHANGE THE ALBUM ARTWORK

    I keep trying to change the artwork on an album/mix I made on Itunes, and since the update it has been impossible, about to rage, This Itunes Update is the worst thing since boners

    A G5 iMac cannot access the App store because it cannot run any higher OS than 10.6.8.
    Typo? That should read 10.5.8.

  • ITunes is not showing the album artwork in the Artist view

    This is only happening for one artist in my iTunes library, but the artwork used to be displayed!!
    Does anyone have an idea on how I can get it back??
    I have previously tried deleting & then adding the artist back into the iTunes library!!

    What version of iOS is running on your iPod? You need iOS 4.3.3 or later to have access to previous purchases for downloading.
    Regards.

  • The album artwork tumbnail is wrong

    I have an iPod Classic 30.  The album artwork is correct on iTunes and when displayed after hitting the center button 3 times.  The thumbnail album artwork that shows while a song plays, however, is incorrect.  Why?

    Sometimes each song will be set to a different artwork (something probably went wrong when you downloaded the music).  Try going in to each song by right clicking on it and choosing get info.  See if the album artwork is different.

  • Is there any possible way to set your itunes to just show the album name without the songs included in the album in artist view. and then be able to select the album to expand all the songs. this would be ideal as I have many albums under certain artists

    I use to use windows media player. The layout was great. It would have icons (one of the album artwork inside the folder) for the artists. you could click on the artist and it would have the icons for all of the albums (similar to itunes) however it would not have all the songs included in that album listed underneath or within it. you had to click on the icon for the album to go into that particular album to view the songs. In my personal opinion this was much easier to search for a particular album especially if you had many albums under one artist as I do. I collect live concert recordings for several particular bands. It would be really nice if itunes would allow you to contract the songs names within each album under artist view and have some way to exand them or open a seperate album folder when clicking on the album name through artist view. is this even possible. does anyone know a way to allow this is happen. you would make a serious music collector very happy. I know this is a crazy request but for people who are serious music collectors like myself with over a TB of music it is much easier to consolidate each individual album under each individual artist for faster searching/viewing needs

    You are describing an iTunes problem, not an iPod touch problem. Try posing in the iTunes forum.

  • HT1386 i have noticed that the album artwork on itunes in my phone is missing when you open the "album" section of itunes installed on my phone. how can i get my album artwork to show up in the album section

    i have noticed that the album artwork on itunes installed on my phone is missing some of the album artwork when i go to the "album" section of itunes in my phone. How can i get the album artwork to show up

    first of all, no one is going to respond to this becuase limewire is used basically in your situation illegally. But let's say you import a cd, left click on the songs you imported and hit get album artwork, if nothing comes up, the album sn't in the itunes database, get it online. And I suggest never to mention limewire and music files on the same post here, since limewire is a file sharing program. Use Itunes, it's easier. theo

  • When testing podcast subscriptions, should the album artwork show up?

    I am trying to setup a podcast and, per the podcast guide, I am testing the subscription before submitting to the iTunes store. All of the episodes are showing and work fine, the only problem is that the album artwork is not appearing.
    Does the artwork only appear once it's submitted to the store, or should it be working when I subscribe to it through Advanced --> Subscribe to Podcast  ?
    XML:
    http://dev.buildingchurch.tv/index.php?option=com_podcastmanager&view=feed&feedn ame=1&format=raw

    The artwork which is referenced in the 'itunes:image' tag in the feed (the 'Podcast image') only appears on the Store page. It does not appear when subscribing.
    You can get images for each episode to appear when subscribing, but they are not referenced in the feed - they have to be actually embedded in the media file: see this page -

    and similarly these images do not appear in the Store page.

  • Before downloading the latest version of I-Tunes, I used to be able to view the ALBUM ARTWORK at bottom left when clicking on a song.   I am now unable to see the artwork.   Is it no longer possible with the updated software ??

    Correct, Apple have removed that feature. However, you can still see the artwork of the song that's playing; it's shown in the Now Playing indicator at the top of the iTunes window. It is small, but if you click on it, a larger version pops up.
    Also, in Albums View, you can see the album artwork.
