ITunes keeps loosing artwork?

This seams to be a universal problem.  There has to be a fix for it.

I looked at my Itunes five minutes ago and it has lost hundreds of links. These showed up when it tried to sync with my ATV. I logged out of Itunes, logged back in and the links were fine. It seems to be loosing the links in memory. What the heck is going on?

  • Why do i keep loosing artwork to my movies

    I'm consistantly loosing artwork to my movies.  Seems to be inconsistant. . .  if I select a movie, do a "Command I", and select the artwork tab, click OK.  The artwork will show back up.  This problem goes across to ATV2, V5.0.  Media Server is MacPro 10.5.8, 4x 2.5 Processor, 8.6G RAM
    thoughts?
    thanks.

    I dont know how this has been going on, but have realised it in the past 2 weeks, i save a couple of contacts or even one, there after a couple of hours or a day the contact disapears. I realized this because i get alot of text messages from unknown numbers in which i save after requesting who the contact is, after saving & a few hours have gone by, when my check my messages the contact is only displayed by a number, going to my contact list its missing. I have realized i have lost alot of contacts this way & this is very disturbing, if im loosing contacts how can i hold up my business & social life? (& mind you same thing happens with email)

  • Why does iTunes keep loosing my Album/Movie artwork?

    Periodically my artwork will disappear from certain items in my iTunes library. If press Get Info the artwork gets restored.
    So I guess I have two questions...
    A) why is this happening? I have my iTunes library on a drive, on a remote maching on my network and periodically the drive will get unmounted.... I suspect the loss of artowrk is somehow linked to this...?
    B) how can I do the equivalent of Get Info for everything so I don't have to go item by item pressing Get Info? Get album artwork doesn't seem to do it... doesn't work at all for movies..

    Hi, vcharisse.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you are receiving an alert that your connection timed out when restoring.  This usually means that there is a USB or security software conflict.  I have attached a couple troubleshooting articles that provide solutions for this issue.

  • Got new ATV and all set up. It keeps loosing connection with iTunes on laptop and have tried everything suggested in set up guide. It works fine for a while then the iTunes account vanishes from 'computer' menu TV screen.  Full Wifi signal on both devices

    Got new ATV and all set up. It keeps loosing connection with iTunes on laptop and have tried everything suggested in set up guide. It works fine for a while then the iTunes account vanishes from 'computer' menu TV screen.  Full Wifi signal on both devices so can't think what could be causing it to happen. Any suggestions please?

    Sorry, I updated another thread I was a part of but didn't update my own thread.....ughhh!
    I updated all of my ATV 2's and 3's to the latest firmware when it was released and have been problem free since. I do believe the major issue of not being able to connect after a period of inactivity has been corrected with the latest ATV firmware.
    I can look at my network connection table using "netstat -an" in a CMD window and I do not see the massive number of connections I saw before the update.
    Here is a link to the other thread I was referring to above:

    Have you applied the latest firmware updates to your ATV 3's?

  • ITunes 7.3 artwork bug

    Just upgraded iTunes to 7.3 and have a problem with new albums i add -- in coverflow it seems to randomly list some new albums multiple times (with multiple covers next to each other). i have checked to make sure all the tabs under 'info' are identical .. it's not as though one has 'album artist' listed and one does not.
    anyone else having this problem? this has happened now to about 3 of the 6 albums i've added since upgrading.

    When I installed iTunes 7.3 I noticed some artwork
    was gone. I compared the actual file sizes to the
    backup and there was no change at all. I was able to
    get the covers again from the iTS, but as I really
    want to have the artwork inside the files, I tried to
    paste it into the tags (like I used to do since 7.0).
    That doesn't work, after pasting it, the artwork is
    gone again completely, but the files are now 4mb
    bigger. The artwork of these files (about 300 in
    total, and I cant figure out why some and some not)
    can not be browsed, but the rest of the tags is fine
    and the songs play just normal.
    I trashed one of the affected albums and re-added it
    from the backup. Now the tags in iTunes were gone
    completely! I re-entered the correct tags and let
    iTunes get the artwork from the iTS. The artwork
    shows, but not for all files of the album. So again I
    tried to paste it into the tags of all songs, and
    voila: all artwork of this album is gone again and
    the files are 4mb bigger.
    Same behaviour in iTunes 7.3.1.
    I'm happy I have a good backup of my music, and I
    think the artwork is still inside the files, but
    iTunes 7.3 and 7.3.1 mess it up. From what I see only
    non-iTS files are affected, but only iTS artwork is
    lost. NOT nice.
    Any ideas? I'm no really a friend of downgrading...
    After some more time consuming tinkering I still have no luck in giving certain files their artwork back. I better go back to 7.2 tomorrow... Apple keep that lousy 7.3.1 BS yourself

  • New itunes removes my artwork!!!!!

    I had manually gone through 8000+ songs and inserted album artwork. It worked great under iTunes 7. Once I upgraded to 7.01 it goes to play a song and it removes the artwork from every song in the album!!!! This is crap!! It took forever to update all the id3 tags. What gives? Are we forced to give you guys a credit card number and start an iTunes store account to keep my artwork?

    Similar situation. All the artwork I loaded from the previous version of iTunes, still displays on my iPod. However, anything I add since I updated to 7.0.1 does NOT. It will show up in iTunes... but not my iPod (and yes... I've already selected "display artwork" in the iPod settings).

  • I have an iphone 4 and it appears that since i updated to ios6 that i keep loosing 3G network.  is there a fix to this? i have reset my network connections several times.  I have no trouble connecting to wifi when i am home.

    I have an iphone 4 and it appears that since i have updated to ios6 that i keep loosing my 3g network connection.  i have reset the network connection several times only to loose 3g again whenever i try to connect to a sight. can anyone tell me what will stop this?

    Problem persisted after fixes were done so wife called apple today.           Their fix is to turn cellular off when in the house and turn it back on when she leaves- the 4 doesn't keep the password so she has to enter the password too... This wasn't a fix ...it's just resolving the connection problem... They also said that they made ios6 have security features so nobody can hack into the wifi without having the password and it has to be entered to use the wifi.  My 5 and the iPads stay on with no problems.  It's just the 4.        So far so good...she's had wifi all day when home.    It's inconvenient but it's either completely reboot it with iTunes (which doesn't work for her) or buy a new phone and she won't do that either.
    So...Apple is saying that she didn't have to do the updates either and could've stayed with the previous iOS     but !!!too late now!!!  We've updated because we think our phones will run better but the ios6 just made it a pita for users
    I wonder if the hackers of the world are having as many issues as the peeps who are just trying to use their wifi??

  • Apple tv keeps loosing the connection with the mac

    Purchased a new desktop mac, time machine and an apple tv. everything is working splendid however the the apple tv seems to keep loosing the connection with the computer. As I sit here i see its no longer listed on the i tunes as a device, I seem to have to reset to the factory defaults again and re install it. I hope I am wrong and I am missing a step and its there and maybe I just don't know how to access it, So here I am posting this to all, Help.... I will be the first to admit I really am a little lost with this apple tv
    thanks you everyone

    I have the same problem as you do. i have had my apple tv for about 2 years now. I connect my apple tv to my iMac, via wifi by airport extreme. i used to before connect via ethernet cable to my airport extreme, i still had the same problem as you do. that itunes losses the apple tv. yet, from apple tv i can still access the internet. i have gone through all my settings on my airport, they are all correct. the connection only seems to last a few days then, it just losses connection. i have asked this question before, but now one was able to help. Apple is not interested because apple tv is just a pet project to them. you do not have to rest the apple tv every time, you just need to go to the options menu and select the connected computers and tell it to delete connection to your computer. once it has done that, make a new connection to your computer on itunes put in the new passcode and set up which films etc you want to be sync. We should not have to do this every few days. Apple needs to sort this out or at least lets us know how to stop this.

  • HT1414 Since updating to iso6.0 I have had problems with my email exchange account syncing correctly - I keeps loosing connection with the server.

    Are you losing the connection to iTunes on the iPad or the computer? You are saying that iTunes is updated. Of course iTunes is updated when you update the iOS software. That's a no brainer.
    If you mean that iTunes is updated on the computer, that has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with downloading and updating apps on the iPad itself so changing the date on the iPad, signing in and out of the stores on the iPad .... Doing any of that on the iPad would have nothing to do with iTunes on your computer.
    If .... you have not been able to connect to the iTunes or app stores at all on the iPad - try this ...
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
    If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If you can't connect at all - you can also try rebooting your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

  • PC and iPod plus backup were all stolen saturday. does anyone know whether iTunes keep a record of our purchases?

    my PC and iPod plus backup were all stolen saturday. does anyone know whether iTunes keep a record of our purchases?

    No unless you makea  habit of loosing all your content... Apple tends to be forgiving the first time, but after that its fair game, since your not actually purchasing the right to own the music.

    Did you ever find a resolutution to your issue? I have a similar issue after installing Mavericks where the Arris modem goes to sleep when my iMac does, even though other devices on the network are actively requesting data. For the time being, as long as the iMac doesn't sleep the network is fine.

  • Why does iTunes keep launching?

    All of a sudden, out of the blue, iTunes keeps launching when an alarm goes off in the application Alarm Clock Pro (ACP).  My wife is a teacher and ever since August 2011 I created alarms to notify her five minutes before the end of her classes.  She doesn't know how to change anything in ACP and she doesn't use iTunes.  Nothing has been changed but last week every time an alarm goes off iTunes launches.
    I've gone through and checked the preferences in both programs and nothing points to this issue.  I know, ACP has an option to launch and play something in iTunes but this is NOT selected.
    Any help or suggestions?
    Thanks!
    Merry CHRISTmas,

    I thought at one time you there was a setting to prevent iTunes opening when a device was plugged in, I don't believe that the sync option will prevent that.
    In your login items, System Preferences/Users and Groups do you have an item "iTunes Helper" I think this is the application monitoring the devices you plugin.
    You could try closing that application in Activity Monitor and plugging your devices in and checking if it stop iTunes opening, also check if it stops it opening through the day. If it does just remove it from your login items after confirming it does not impact on other iTunes uses.

  • TS2709 I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I also get this problem on my iPad, so probably not related to the AppleTV. On the iPad I restarted Airport Extreme this time, and then the iPad saw my Home Sharing.
    So to recap, restarting the router or Airport Express allowed the iPad and AppleTV to see Home Sharing. Restarting AppleTV also allows AppleTV to see Home Sharing.
    So does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks
