ITunes Mini Player Does not show artwork

I have 100% of my music tagged with album art.
Album art shows 100% of the time in every other possible place in iTunes - including mini player next up.
When I look at mini player history, album art is missing 99% of the time.
Anybody have the fix?

I also find what Apple has done to be a huge step backwards.
Apple seems to be in the dark regarding the user experience - seemingly favoring form over function. I almost feel they are trying to just make things look pretty to please users in store but leaving real users left out to dry in regards to features and smart interface design.
The mini player is my primary interface for using iTunes - now this "upgrade" omits the playhead, time elapsed and remaining, volume controls (at a glance), full playback details, etc. How is this at all an improvement?
I suppose if making the interface "clean" - yeah - it's a home run. So pretty. So useless. Great job!
I said the same regarding Quicktime. I still use Quicktime 7 Pro (!!!!) over Quicktime for OSX because it has full controls, easy edit features (compared to the simplistic garbage of the new player) and most importantly - does not have movie controls overlaying my movie!!!
I know that's a tangent - but let's have a return to controls that sit below the movie as opposed to over it.
Apple, I truly love your products and own a significant amount of your gear - but you really need to sort out the user experience.
Cheers!

Mini player does not work, can only switch playlists by closing and restarting iTunes

For the last few versions of iTunes, my mini player does not work, only choices are large window and larger window. Also, if I am listening to a playlist and hit the pause button, then switch to another playlist, the old playlist keeps playing when I hit play. The only way I can figure out to switch playlists is to quit and relaunch iTunes.

try rebooting the ipad
you know holding down the on button and the home button until the slider comes
and turn it off and start it up again

Mini player does not display tracks internet radio

Hi, i downloaded iTunes 11 a couple of days ago and noticed that the mini player does not display the tracks played on internet radio stations. It keeps displaying the track that was playing when switched from the main screen to the mini player. Anyone around with a solution? All previous iTunes versions that I know displayed the actual information, I have never before had this issue.

Ok, only now found out this is a well known issue, see other posts under "More Like This" on the right hand side of this screen. Really hope Apple solves this as this is clearly an issue for users.

I have rented a movie in ITunes, however it does not show up in the movies on my ATV, but purchased movies do. What's up?

I have rented a movie through ITUNES, but it does not show up on my ATV movies menu as they have in the past in a category called rentals. In fact that category isn't shown. My purchased movies are showing up. What's up?

A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

HT1390 I've rented & downloaded a movie on my computer in itunes, but it does not show up on my Apple TV. Everything else shows up on Apple TV, including my computer's movie library. When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it.

When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it and asks if I want to rent it again. No, I just want to watch it.

Unfortunately I have to if I download it on my computer. I have rented itunes movies before directly using the Apple TV and it worked just fine and I could stay in the living room. Without clicking that icon on my computer, there was no way to watch it.

Try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

On my computer, the Adobe Media Player does not show day 5. Shows days 1 through 4.
Also on Day 4, trying to view the video "Create States and How to bind them"
I get a "corrupt file" error when trying to watch using the Adobe Media Player...
Also will someone please give a clear statement how to do a download of the files so
we can watch them off line. This still isn't clear to me.

files.

Nokia E-5 music player does not show all songs. Th...

my Nokia E-5 music player does not show all songs. The filemanager does though. have tried every damn thing that i could, from the internet. no solution yet. Nokia wont address it. any solutions? please dont ask me to refersh my music player. nokia now manufactures stupid phones, instead of smartphones..
can any one help, friends? the last option i have to sell it off and wait for an HTC qwerty mango 7.5 phone

I perfectly understand that this is frustrating and of course Nokia should adress this.
I do not work for Nokia so maybe you could contact them. I see you have been to a care centre and reset it, but hopefully by contacting them by email they can log the issue for further work on firmwares?
I hope this sorts out. Have you btw, tried with some other memory card?
If it's not too much of a struggle, try backing up everything you have on it and format it, then reboot the phone which will recreate the needed folders and then drag and drop your stuff back to it and check again.
Hope you get it solved mate!

Itunes drop down does not show apps

I cannot find apps in my itunes. It does not show up in the drop down menu in the upper left. The only choices are music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, & books. My computer was recently updated to mountain lion 10.8.5. I imported my itunes from an external hard drive.

Okay I figured it out. I had not backed up my phone to this computer. Once I backed it up I could then sync it. Once I had synced it the apps on my phone where on my computer. Apps then appeared in the drop down menu.

How do i recover my purchased movies on itunes. the icloud does not show them and i have contacted apple twice before about this issue

how do i recover my purchased movies on itunes. the icloud does not show them and i have contacted apple twice before about this issue

Not all movies qualify for download on demand from iTunes in the Cloud, the rights may be reserved by the content provider and can vary by region. What response have you had from iTunes Store support?
If you have still have the computer they were on it might be possible to extract the hard drive, mount it in an external drive bay and recover the content from it.

Mini speaker does not show any light

My x mini speaker does not show a blue or red light at the side and now won't play and when I try to recharge it to the laptop it shuts the laptop down straight away, it's like it's just died, what to do

Hi,
The cable the came with the speakers to charge, is that a USB cable? If it is, test the ports with anything you can that's USB. Even better would be something that also uses the ports to charge from. Just to make sure the issue is not the port. If you have another port, then you can also try it through that.
It does really look like it's that speaker. Check those few things, if the issue only remains with that speaker. Then yes the speaker's essentially useless to you.
I hope this answers your questions.
Thanks for the reply.

Song plays in iTunes, but file does not show in Finder

Bizarre issue. My 26,000+ song iTunes Library lives on an external LaCie drive. All the songs play fine in iTunes (and I can hear the drive spin up when I go to play them). However, for a few thousand of the songs, the song's file is not in the physical location where iTunes shows it to be.
An example is below... these are two song file locations from the 'Master Tune Library.xml' exported from iTunes. Both of these files
show in iTunes, and they both play just fine from iTunes (no exclamation mark next to the song names). Yet only the first file (one ending in 1219.mp3)
is at that location. The one ending in 1249.mp3 does not show in that location, either via Finder, or via Terminal.
From Terminal I get no results from "find /Volumes/LaCie500 -name espace_20101103_1249.mp3" (without the dbl quotes) But if I run the same command for the 1219 file, it does find it in the expected location. Really stumped as from where iTunes is playing ...1249.mp3.
/Volumes/LaCie500/myTunes/Unknown Artist/Unknown Album/espace_20101103_1219.mp3
/Volumes/LaCie500/myTunes/Unknown Artist/Unknown Album/espace_20101103_1249.mp3
Mac Mini
Mac OS X 10.5.8
iTunes 10.5
iTunes Media folder location is /Volumes/LaCie500/myTunes Both options underneath for "organize" and "copy files ... when adding to Library" are checked.
Thanks!

Try using EasyFind utility to reveal the files.
Are you absolutely positive those files exist? You have verified with iTune's summary view thatthe files is what you think it is?
Show In Finder will usually not only open the directory but also leave the actual file highlighted.

HT201272 Purchase history in itunes on pc does not show audio books that I have downloaded. How do I download them to my itunes library?

I have the current version of itunes on my pc and my wife had downloaded a few audio books to her i phone under the same account. Her phone was damaged and was replaced. I had backed up the phone and restored the new one but her audio books were not put on the new phone. When i look in my itunes library on my pc the book does not show up. In the purchase history I can find when i purchased it and the order number but there is no option to download it. Then under the "purchased" area it gives the options of music movies tv shows apps and books (not audio books) but audio books are no where to be found. If i can get any help figuring it out i would appreciate it.

Hey innerev2003,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If, while searching through your past purchases, items are unavailable to download and show a "Purchased" button, they are still on your computer. It may be best to search your iTunes library by clicking Music, then use the search bar at the top right.
If you are completely sure the items are no longer in your library, try signing out of the iTunes Store, and then back in.

HT1349 I have registered with my local library and can download books. But these are not being shown in ITunes, the Library does not show 'audiobooks'. I have an ipod 6G. can anyone help please?

I have recently purchased (from the States) an ipod nano 6th generation. I belong to a local library and can download books from the audiobooks online section. Problem is, my iPod when synced to iTunes, does not show Library as a category and audiobooks. For some reason, it is allowing me to download the books to my iPod, but I am unable to delete them from the iPod, and also, it is giving an echo (I think somehow it is downloading twice which is giving an echo effect). Not sure what is going on, but if anyone can advise me on this I would be very grateful.

Hello mrsbonniesue
If you have an issue with the audiobook showing up in music, check to see if those tracks are labeled as audio books or music. The article below will explained as well as I have highlighted the main portion for changing that information.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Edit song and CD information
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12360
Identify an item that you imported from a CD as an audiobook, so it appears under Audiobooks instead of Music (click the Options button and choose Audiobook from the Media Kind pop-up menu). If you do this, iTunes also remembers your place in the audiobook
