ITunes artwork disappearing from movies

I have my iTunes library located on a NAS (WD myCloud). My movies have their artwork drop from the library once in a while. While cosmetically annoying, my Apple TV won't play the movie as long as it's in this state. The way to restore the file is to get info, which somehow loads the artwork, and then the title work again. I have well over 200 movies so this serial process is rather frustrating, and seems to affect imported movies (handbraked from DVD) and purchased content.
Does anyone else have this issue, and what have they done to correct it?

Ah, ****. Nobody is helping. This *****.
I've found some kind of solution, maybe it will help somebody else.
The artwork cache is not working as it must. If you have all the covers embedded in the songs, you see them in iTunes, but only some on ipod, then do this:
- connect the media storage where you keep your music (if not on hdd);
- connect ipod to the computer;
- apply "uncheck selection" to all your songs, whos covers are not shown (or all songs);
- look into the ipod properties and mark "update only selected songs";
- sync ipod. All checked songs will be REMOVED from ipod;
- select all songs in itunes, do "check selection";
- manually put the highlighted cursor on 1st song in your list and press keyboard "down arrow" many-many times, until you reach the last song. With this operation you make iTunes add all the missing artwork to the cache.
- sync again, the songs will be written back to ipod.
That's all. Artwork is back.
Sorry for my English.

My itunes has disappeared from my computer

my itunes has disappeared from my computer, ive checked the location where the program is stored and its gone. i tried to re-install itunes but it will not open. ive checked my firewall, and have restarted the computer a few times and still no luck. any ideas? thanks

It is also possible that iTunes is already running, but something is messed up (and it won't let you run it twice). Open up the Task Manager (cntrl-alt-del) and see if the iTunes process is listed. If it is, right click it and kill it. Then try to lauch iTunes again.
Or - you could reboot.

Itunes has disappeared from my ipad. how to get it back?

itunes has disappeared from my ipad. how to get it back?

You don't have iTunes (per se) on the iPad. There is a Music app which is an orange icon. Native apps cannot be deleted, but in the event that it has somehow disappeard you could go to Settings > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

*N OVER MY HEAD! my iTunes library disappeared from my PC, TS said uninstall then reinstall, before I reinstalled though my ipad 2 said NOT ENOUGH MEMORY as I tried to update 1 app. What do I do now?

Apparently, something went way wrong SOMEWHERE, SOMEHOW... and now I'm afraid of losing ALL MY MEDIA considering I have NO ITUNES ON MY LAPTOP! I followed all appropriate steps found in trouble shooting, when I reinstalled iTunes though, the reinstalled music on my pc was a handful of songs that were triplicates, even listed some five TIMES! And maybe a total of 20-25 different songs, a fraction of what I had initially!

1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

PLEASE HELP! itunes has disappeared from my computer - don't know why

PLEASE HELP!! iTunes has disappeared from my computer. Have no idea what happened. Won't let me download new itunes.

You can probably fix it by running chkdsk, as explained in this other thread. It makes sense, if you didn't remove itunes yourself and it can't be reinstalled/repaired, something went seriously wrong on the PC's hard drive. Perhaps the chkdsk utility can fix it.

Itunes artwork disappeared after loading 08 software

Itunes artwork disappeared after updated software to 08 to IPAD AIR. How do I fix this problem?

What version of iTunes was lost?

Why does my artwork disappear from my ipod?   It's all visible in itunes, but on the ipod nano it disappears.

Why does my artwork keep disappearing from my ipod?   It's all visible in itunes, but on the ipod nano it when I copy over new albums with artwork, the artwork on the albums already on the ipod lose theirs, although they retain the artwork if viewed through itunes.
In case it matters, I don't "sync" my "library". I have a I have a PC and copy over directories containing albums of MP3 files by dragging them onto the ipod with itunes. I also tried pulling over only the files and not the directories.

OK, so I decided that maybe if I "sync" my iPod instead of just copying stuff to it at will, that maybe it would fix the problem. I did a "restore", wiping out the contents. I set up a "playlist", and put everything that I wanted on the iPod into the "playlist".   Then I "synced" the "playlist" onto the iPod. Every song and album now had the proper album art. I could live with this.   Then I added another album to the "playlist", and "synced". The new album was now on the iPod with the correct artwork. The albums that were already on the iPod now either had their appropriate artwork, no artwork, or the artwork from the other albums that were already on the iPod, with no rhyme or reason as to which was which. AARGH.   I wiped it out and re-added the now-explanded "playlist" and "synced" again, and every album had the right cover.   I guess the only thing to do is completely replace the contents of the iPod any time I want to add or change anything, or forget about artwork.

How do you stop synched iTunes music disappearing from my iPhone 5?

I have about 35G of music on my iTunes on my iMac, a good % of it having been purchased on ITunes. The music sync setting for my iPhone 5 is automatic / everything.
For the past couple of months, I've been noticing music disappearing from my iPhone when it's offline (eg on the plane, when I listen to my music on my iPhone the most). Such music would come back as "in the cloud" when I regain wifi / data access. I would then download them onto my iPhone again. And then they would disappear again! How can I stop such annoying behavior? Does switching music sync to manual help? Thank you.

My App store and itunes has disappeared from my iphone

My app store and itunes apps have disappeared from my iphone.
I suspect Apple is responsible and is trying to force an upgrade. Does anyone know if this is true? because if it is we should object to this.
The upgrade on my ipad was such a horrible experience, I don't want to do it to upgrade my iphone. (Upgrades have been a nightmare every since the itunes interface was changed. In my view, iTunes is the now one of the most unintuitive interface imaginable - [bar windows 8]. Prior to that it was generally easy to do upgrades and backups without hiccups and the interface was great. Now its too obscure to find what you need to do.)
I have been an Apple fan since the original Apple computer - but am not very happy with recent changes that affect use-ability and reliability.
General grumbling aside - every time you upgrade, you have to reload all of your apps; and a lot of favorite apps won't work with the new system. That's another reason I don't want to upgrade.
Without the App and iTunes application - you can't selectively update the apps you want to update or even access your music.
Questions:
1. Does anyone know why the Apps and iTunes apps disappeared? (I'm not the only one complaining about this.)
2. Does anyone know how to get them back without having to effectively erase your phone and start over?
3. Does anyone know how to get iTunes on the computer to recognize your iiphone when the itunes app disappeared off it?
Thank you.

Hi Dahveed,
Thank you again for the advice. But, rebooting did not help.
In the end I was forced to upgrade.
I am relieved to say that this upgrade went very smoothly compared to other upgrades.
I did not have to re-download apps and they appear to be in their normal folders - except a new app page 2 (after the primary page) appeared containing only the missing apps. This was not there before.
Answer to the disappearing Apple App Store and iTunes Dilemma:
The answer to this problem unfortunately appears to be to upgrade the system.
In my experience the Apps (which presumably are removed to force the user into an upgrade) then re-appear.
On the positive side, at least on this occasion, it did not turn out to be a nightmare make work project.

IPod appears in iTunes, but disappears from Desktop

Just recently, whenever I plug my 3G 20GB iPod into my dock connect via Firewire to my iMac, it launches iTunes as normal, appears on the Deskop, syncs with iTunes and then disappears from the Desktop.
Then if I eject my iPod from iTunes and leave it connected to my dock to charge, and later relaunch iTunes it freezes and takes a force quit and a log out to get things working again.
I tried resetting and resyncing the iPod last week and have also trashed the iTunes prefs, but nothing seems to have worked as yet.
Any ideas?
iMac G5 20" 2.1GHz iSight, 1.5GB RAM, 250GB HD Mac OS X (10.4.8) Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3GHz, 2.5GB RAM, 160GB HD

The first part of your description sounds normal when using Auto updating and having disk mode DIS-abled. Mine shows up in iTunes when connected, then I eject it from iTunes and it does not appear on my desk top.
Try going into the iPod setting in iTunes and enabling disk mode and see if that works any better. You will have to manually eject the iPod from the desk top though, before unplugging it.

Itunes music disappearing from library

I recently got a new laptop and copied all my music across however after working perfectly for weeks I found that when I went on to itunes all my music had disappeared from my library. I then transferred it again and it did the smae, as in it worked fine for a while and then was empty again. This has happened 3 times now and it is really frustrating. Another thing I have noticed is that I find an itunes genius file and an itunes extra file in my recycle bin, when I havent deleted them??

I have a similar problem. My internet wasn't working properly on my screen name for my computer, so my mom made me a whole new one for when i loggin to my computer. She transferred all my old files to my new sn and when I went to open my itunes, my library was completely empty... so i went back on my old sn to open it up and it was also empty... I don't know what happened, and i'm freaking out can anyone help me
!?!?!

ITunes has disappeared from my phoneI did not uninstall, but it's gone along with the icon. HELP

ITunes is gone from my iPhone, icon and all. I've tried going to the site to download again but it won't download.

It's a built-in app so it can't be deleted (and therefore can't be redownloaded), but it might be hidden. If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (pull down the centre of the home screen in iOS 7), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes being set 'off' ?
If not then have you tried a soft-reset to see if you can find it after the phone has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
