Is the Cover Flow widget relegated to acting as a pop up?

Is the Cover Flow widget relegated to acting as a pop up?  I would like to implement Cover Flow as an integral part of a page - and not be a placeholder that when clicked opens another screen.

  • How can I get the Cover Flow text to be in all caps

    I've only had one problem with the Cover Flow application for iTunes. All of my track names, artists, and album names are in caps on my library. When I switch to the Cover Flow view some songs are displayed with all caps, while others have the song and album in caps, but the artist is in lower case.
    I've gone through all of my files and all of them have been correctly entered in all caps, yet Cover Flow still does not display them correctly. I've even gone through every album, got info, and made sure everything was in all caps. Still no succcess.
    Any suggestions?
    How about creating an option button to control Cover Flow's functioning on the next iTunes version? That would be nice.

    Thanks, jere7my.
    In other words, I should always make changes to my song text with the Cover Flow view selected.
    I would never have the Cover Flow view selected while importing new albums, tracks, and artwork. I switched back to it after I was done personalizing my stuff. Thats when I started to notice they were still in lower case, even though I had changed them.

  • Cannot locate the Cover Flow view in iTunes 11. Is it still active/available?

    No. See this article for features killed-off in iTunes 11 including Cover Flow. http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57556548-37/7-features-apple-killed-off-in-itu nes-11/

  • Annoying bug: Duplicate albums in the Cover Flow view

    When viewing my music via the Cover Flow view (sorting Album by Artist) I frequently come across an album that appears twice. For example, I see two copies of Florence and the Machine's "Lungs" side by side. The first copy contains the first track on the album and the second copy has the remainder of the album.
    My first thought was "Oh, I must have mislabeled the album field of that first track so it's being saved as a different album... maybe I put in an extra space or something." But when I view the album in the Finder, all the tracks are in the same album folder. Just to be sure, I selected all the tracks on the album in iTunes and made sure the Album info field was correct, checked the checkbox, and clicked OK. Still nothing changes.
    I was finally able to fix this by selecting all the tracks on the album in iTunes and changing the Album info field to a completely NEW name (in this example "Lungs TEMP", then selecting them all again and renaming them BACK to the CORRECT name (Lungs). Ta da... Yea. Now there's only one "Lungs" album in Cover Flow.
    No big deal if I only had to do this once, but this bug exists all over the place! 11,000 songs is a lot to sort through. It's almost like iTunes is caching bad data somewhere, but I don't know how to delete this cache.
    Ideas? Anyone else seen this behavior?

    It happens... See http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp for more.

  • The cover flow in my ipod doesn't work

    When I'm in cover flow view and playing an album, the ipod keeps on looping the same album. Also, can the cover flow view plays songs by tracks but not albums?

    Cover flow lets you select an album to play, optionally letting you choose which track to start playing. What happens next depends on your shuffle & repeat options, but it will only play tracks from the selected album until you choose another one.

  • Browsing the "Cover Flow" view

    Hi There, Ihave the following message when I try to view the Cover Flow view:
    "iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer"
    This is strange because
    a) All other graphics works just fine
    b) The album covers appear in the smaller "Now Playing" window at the bottom right, and
    c) The album covers also appear when I double click the "Now Playing" window for the full-size image.
    Any help gratefully received. Thanks, all.

    Have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base and let us know if it brings you any combination of joy and/or satisfaction.

  • Everytime I open itunes the cover flow size returns to default. How Can I lock the aspect ratio?

    Whenever I shut down my computer and restart it, the aspect ratio of the images in itunes coverflow reset to their default size. How can I keep them where I set them.

    I have an issue somewhat like that, except it doesn't happen when I shut down or restart my computer. Mine resets each time I click the green resize button (using an iMac) to minimize iTunes to the mini player. Oddly enough, if I resize the cover flow, switch to a different view (ie. library without cover flow) and then hit the resize button to switch to mini player, upon maximizing iTunes again, I can switch back to the cover flow and it will have stayed the same size. Obviously I'm not going to go through that process each time I want to minimize iTunes to mini player, but when I simply minimize it when in cover flow view, as you mentioned in your post, it resets the aspect ratio each time. Clearly this isn't a massive issue as I'm still able to use all the other functions of iTunes perfectly fine, but I have to admit it is very annoying and has been persistent for the last few hours. Please if you've found a fix let me know, however I noticed you are using Windows 7 so we likely have two completely different issues.

  • The Cover Flow on my iPod classic is out of order

    I use the cover flow option on my iPod classic to get to the music I want to listen to and discovered that my albums are out of order in regards of being alphabetical order by artists. For example the greatest hits and soundtracks and other compilations are moved to the back instead of being in order with the artist that made the album. Is there anyone that can help me resolve this issue?

    See my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist.

  • Ever since iTunes 10.2.1 the cover flow doesn't work

    Whenever I switch to view cover flow it just removes the whole top section where the Play, FF, Volume buttons etc are...the cover flow doesn't even show up. Which is pretty lame because the -only- reason I am using iTunes is because of the cover-flow. If I wanted to see my album artwork stacked vertically I'd just use WMP instead of apple's insanely awkward interface.
    Any tips on what I can do here? I thought 10.2.2 would fix this but alas :-(

    Malware can cause digital signing issues, I would run a malware check with the free version of MalwareBytes:
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/
    After that, the is a Microsoft fixit for:
    The software you are installing  has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows   XP. (Tell me why this testing is important.)
    This software will not be  installed. Contact your system administrator.

    It might be worth trying it.

  • Bug with the cover flow in OS3.1.2

    I am a Chinese user of iTouch and I have found a bug with the cover flow.
    In the normal mode, there is only 1 album. But when i switch it to the cover flow, it has more than one, all of which have the complete album after it.
    what's still peculiar is that
    1.it happens only to the simplified chinese songs.
    2.when i switch the language of my itouch to traditional chinese or english, there is 1 cover flow.
    can anyone help me?

    tell apple. http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html

  • A diagonal line across every cover in the cover flow view

    I have a black diagonal line across every cover when use the cover flow view. Even in the iTunes store, in the tv shows or music videos, in cover flow view, I still see a black diagonal line across the cover.
    I reinstalled iTunes 7.0.2 a few times, but the problem still remains.
    Verypong.

    Had the same problem too. Also the problems of bottom text (which displays number or songs, amount of time etc.) displayed incorrectly with maximized windows; some part of iTunes 7 would turn black when I resized its internal columns/windows; and the annoying resource-eating habit that caused maximizing/restoring other windows slowing to a crawl.
    So far, my solution is going back version 6.
    Please fix the problems soon, Apple! I didn't have problems like this with Windows Media Plyaer 11 beta!

  • Why not to add a keyboard inside the cover flow ?

    A lot of people prefer to use a classic bluetooth keyboard to write long text with their iPad2, the cover flow can integrate a flexible keyboard ?
    Are you a lot to think like that ?

  • Is it possible to disable the cover flow?

    I find I accidently activate the cover flow sometimes, and it's not a feature i'll ever use.. is there any way I can disable it from popping up?
    Also, how to I Search for music in library?

    Just don't turn it sideways and you won't need to worry about cover flows (if i'm thinking about the same thing). I looked around all over iPodTouch but didn't see anything to disable it though.
    As for searching, just click on one of the 5 icons at the bottom in the music menu

  • The "Cover Flow" / "Album Artist" duplicate albums problem on the iPod

    Hi Guys,
    I've made some research about this issue and got to some interesting conclusions.
    DISCLAIMER:
    1. I searched the web and found people describing this problem since 2006 till 2009 and the solution always revolved around not using the "Artist" and the "Album Artist" tags like they should be used.
    2. I did a lot of testing, including re-writing the ID3 tags in different versions and formats to rule out any issues around the tags themselves.
    3. If the stuff I'm going to describe is already well known than sorry about that, I just couldn't find it anywhere.
    PROBLEM:
    An album that has a single Album Artist and different Artists appears several times in the iPod Cover Flow although it looks just fine in iTunes.
    Tagging the tracks as "Part of a Compilation" only partially solves the issue since the album will appear in the iPod Cover Flow as a Compilation showing up in the end and not together with the "Album Artist" like in iTunes and like it should.
    It seems to be a simple issue around the way the iPod uses the "Album Artist" tag but it also seems to be around forever and it's strange Apple hasn't looked into it.
    RESEARCH:
    Since I just bought a new iPod Classic, I was again looking into this issue and now I was getting annoyed, strangely the behaviour wasn't the same for all the albums that were suffering from the problem. I found that when the Artist was a combination of, for example:
    Album - AlbumX
    Album Artist - ArtistX
    Track 1 - ArtistX
    Track 2 - ArtistX Feat. X
    Track 3 - ArtistX
    Track 4 - ArtistX Feat. Z
    Track 10 - ArtistX Feat. XYZ
    In the iPod Cover Flow I got ONLY TWO different albums, one with "ArtistX" and another one with "ArtistX Feat. X".
    Well, this was very different from the normal behaviour when the artists are all completely different, in which case you get X amount of albums according to the X amount of different artist names you have.
    CONCLUSION:
    It seems to have something to do with the dot ".", I reached the conclusion that for Artist interpretation in the iPod when the Artist tag has a dot "." then it stops interpreting. That means that if you had a "." after the main artist name than it will show only once, like in the above example:
    Album - AlbumX
    Album Artist - ArtistX
    Track 1 - ArtistX. <---- NOTICE THE DOT
    Track 2 - ArtistX. Feat. X
    Track 3 - ArtistX.
    Track 4 - ArtistX. Feat. Z
    Track 10 - ArtistX. Feat. XYZ
    Then in the iPod Cover Flow it will show up only once as AlbumX - ArtistX.
    I prefer to use the dots instead of just removing all the "Featurings and similar" since I can still see it normally if I play the track.
    So, in the end, a combination like this in your "Artist" tag: "Album Artist"."Artist" would solve the problem in the iPod.
    I would love for Apple to solve this issue and I hope this helps.
    Has someone else noticed this or am I going crazy?
    Thanks!

    sometimes the official title of a release does include the Feat. Guest info.
    Yes, but only in some (or many) cases. There seems to be no consistency here, as if Apple were paying no attention about where to put "feat. guest". And I guess most of the data in CDDB (Gracenote) still have "feat. guest" in Artist (correctly, in my opinion).
    I quite agree that your workaround is the best workaround. I'm just too self-willed (obstinate?, I don't know the correct English) and don't want to pollute my Library with "wrong" data. Most of the problems would simply be solved if, just if Apple make iPods sort/group artists as iTunes do. Sorry but this is how I feel. I guess you can't help people like me. Thank you for your patience.
    Anyway, we need a clear document from Apple describing what are the intended uses of various tags, and iTunes/iPods should obey this document. It seems for me that each Apple engineer is doing just what (s)he wants to do, without any guidelines.
