ITunes does not show album artwork for FLAC files

I add FLAC music files to iTunes via Fluke which works perfectly.
Then I add the album artworks to the albums as usual (select all songs/right click/get info/info/then drag and drop a previously downloaded .jpg file). The artwork is visible in the Artwork column, in the Cover Flow but not in the right click/get info/info/artwork.
Which would not be a problem itself, but I use a Logitech Squeezebox Duet and on the controller there is no artwork for albums with FLAC files.
It is only with FLACs, MP3s work fine.
Any idea, what is it all about?
Thanks!

I knew that.
That was really my question how to solve it if there is a workaround.

IPhone does not show album artwork for some songs!

My iPhone recently stopped showing album artwork for newly added music....
I tried to add the album artwork thousand time but no use...
Restore didnt help as well...
Any solutions?

no, it shows only for some, the old ones...not the newly imported ones
I select all the songs from the album, I drag the picture -from folder or safari- then i drop it in the artwork box...
sometimes shows for the first song only, but always shows for the album little preview, and never for the rest of the songs...

Itunes does not show apps available for download

I have the following issue. I recently moved back to the US and changed my store account from Europe to US. Now, I get all app downloads on my iPad and iPhone correctly. However, my iMac states all the time that I have 5, 10, 19 apps available for download, When I click the button, I see perhaps 0 or 1-2 apps apps available for download. Apps available for download symbol stays on apps section in iTunes. If I sync my devices manually with the iTunes, the number goes down. Sometimes even to zero. However, my iTunes on my iMac seems to be unable to download those apps.

You need to purchase the iOS upgrade.

After downloading album covers (some not found) itunes does not show most of the covers.

After downloading album covers into iTunes iTunes does not show most of the covers. It showas blank white boxes except for those where "cover not found" (music notes).
You have any idea how this happens, perhaps with location of the files.

iTunes refuses to play/read file, it cannot recognizes headers, or recognizes those as corrupt, but giving no error messages. The problem is the stored artwork(s) on your music files. To correct this, select the files that are corrupted/cannot be played on iTunes&iPod, click "Convert ID3 Tags...", then select v1.1 from the dropdown box (first, try this on a few to see that my solution is working).
By doing so, iTunes replaces headers, but your ID3 tags will not be changed (I assume you are using ID3 v2.4), nor you'll lose any info or anything else. This works as a hotfix for those files. If you try to replace headers via another program, your information will be truncated, and any artwork stored will be deleted. So I recommend this one.
You'll see that iTunes cannot play most of the files that has artwork(s) stored in them. New version hasn't fixed this problem, and it has risen with iTunes 8.2.x. If it's going to take long, I suggest you should go back to 8.1.x.

I've run diagnostics. Can't find device. I've tried resetting. The toggle has been turned on and off.

Cable works fine on my other iPod. Reset by pressing menu and center button together for 6-10 seconds. Left it to charge for many hours. Started acting up while running. Suddenly the music stopped playing but my Nike + was still working for the rest of my run. Took it straight it home and plugged it in to the wall to recharge since the battery was fairly low. Looked like it recharged ok but then screen went blank and now does it not show up on iTunes, does not seem to recharge by the wall charger (apple wall charger plugged into a surge protector in India). I have turned the hold switch off and on many times.
Sounds like a repair issue, which is not easy to do in India :(

Why does iTunes spend ages processing album artwork for no apparent reason?

I have a 65,000+ files on assorted drives. I tag in another ap, so I don't use iTunes to get artwork. However, everytime I add files to my playlist it insists on "processing album artwork" for every file, even if there isn't any, or if the files are being re-added after being moved to a different drive. What is iTunes up to, & is there any way of disabling it?
On a related note, it would be really useful if iTunes could be set to search certain folders for altered, moved or deleted files & update the library automatically. Any chance this could be introduced in a future version?

No, it isn't! Maybe I should check it, then restart iTunes, uncheck it again & restart iTunes again. Might be worth a try.

I had purchased and downloaded a tv series to my ipad. Then deleted it due to space constraints. Now I wanted to download it permanently to my MacBook but itunes does not show this purchases. It worked, however, for another series. What can I do?

You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad.
If you haven't synced to a computer them (from here) :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

My wife ran the battery down in her shuffle. When I plug it in to the wall or computer, it will blink red solid for about 3 seconds and then shut off. Is the battery that dead, or is something else wrong. ITunes does not show the shuffle

There is a hardware problem. Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

When restored. But the 4 does not. AT&T insists its unlocked but they are only going off
Of the request and IMEI number. Is there a way from the phone i can verify it was unlocked?
If AT&T e-mail says it is unlocked, then believe it is so. Insert non-AT&T SIM inside and after backing up restore in iTunes again. Unlock gets attached.
You can check the status of the unlock request on AT&T web-site.

When I connect my ipad or ipod to the computer, itunes does not show them as a "device".

When I connect my ipad or ipod to the computer, itunes does not show them as a "device", however my computer can see they are connected. so it seems to be a problem with itunes. i have tried re-installing itunes and it still doesnt work.
My Iphone does show as a device when connecteing wirelessly.
Its not a problem with the driver becasue the computer can see the devices, so its a problem in itunes.

Hello mimward,
It sounds like Windows can see your devices, but iTunes is not seeing them. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article named:

TS3697 My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.

My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.
What am I going to do?

The Photos tab doesn't appear there. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos e.g. :
If you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

After upgrading to iOS 8, the weather app does not show up results for any of the Indian States/cities

After upgrading to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5, the weather app does not show up results for any of the Indian States/cities. Can Apple look into this or does anyone have a solution to this.

Swipe from bottom of days listed ("Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, etc") upwards. I thought it was gone too but it's still there~just takes different way to access it.

I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information

I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information (it just shows a blank white screen with "iphone" in the centre".

I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.
