ITunes won't retrieve cover art after CD import

I am using iTunes 8.2 (current version). I have been using iTunes for years. Usually, once iTunes finishes importing my CD, it says it it getting the album artwork and poof it appears. Now after importing a CD, nothing happens. The only preference I can find that seems to address this is under "Store" and is a check box, stating "Automatically download missing album artwork." "Album artwork for songs which you imported into iTunes will be downloaded." That box is checked.
Is there something in the new version that disabled getting album artwork for CDs I am importing? Is there a setting I overlooked?

Try itunes menu > view > Always Show Artwork when you're in album list view.
The default is off, which saves screen real estate when there's a bunch of singles.

  • Itunes won't display cover art correctly

    When I view my music in the album list, the cover art for songs will show up very sporadically, despite displaying fine in the grid and cover flow formats. They also show up when I select "Get Info" as part of the information and in the cover section. The cover art is also tied to the music file itself.
    Is there any way to fix this? Album list is my preferred way to view my music, but the lack of cover art is annoying. Plus, I don't want to sync my ipod until it's fixed because I don't want to lose the cover art stored there.
    I have iTunes 10.0.1.22, but I was having the problem in earlier versions as well.

  • Changing cover art after book is in store

    Hi - I used Book Creator to make my book -- it just went up today -- using the producer is it possible to change one's cover art? - -want to make the titiles bigger.  Thanks.

    You’ll need to create a separate cover image and upload it to iTunes Producer. Use a tool like Photoshop or if you've created the book on your iPad you could just take a screenshot of your cover page and crop it.
    The file must be a JPEG, PNG or TIFF file in RGB mode, (these are standard filetypes for images).
    The image must also be a minimum of 1400px on its shortest side. It doesn’t matter if the cover art is landscape, portrait or square.

  • ITunes won't burn a CD after 10.4.7/6.0.5

    This is an echo of the post, "iTunes won't burn audio or data CDs"
    The subject pretty much says it. My Dual 2.3MHz G5 is a little over a year old. I noticed this yesterday, the first time I've tried burning an audio CD from iTunes since both updates. Whether I select the built-in superdrive or my LaCie FW CDR/DVDR, after clicking "burn CD", iTunes reads the playlist, checks the media, and begins the "initializing disk" task; but right then the iTunes display changes to "canceling disk burn", and displays an error window. The disk seems completely untouched. I seem to be able to burn a CD OK in Finder. I haven't tried making a non-audio CD in iTunes. I have restarted a couple of times, including a shut-down-and-cold-start. I am now officially out of clues.
    Can anyone help? I am Terminal-friendly. TIA...

    Another interesting idea. Didn't seem to do it for me. Went down to 2x, tried both my built-in and my external drives. One change is that I now see the "preparing disc" progress bar before getting the "canceling disc burn..."
    Interesting, to compare with Kevin's, is that if I have a disc already inserted, it ejects and I need to re-insert.
    I might try downgrading to 10.4.6 if I can figure out how to do it, and maybe to iTunes 6.0.4 (if I can find an installer). I'll report any results.
    I sure hope this is some simple bug that gets fixed soon...

  • Can changes be made to the size of Cover Art after publication?

    Can anyone please advise me on how to change the size of the cover art on the published work already in the iBookstore?  It's showing up pretty small but when it's downloaded it's the proper size on the bookshelf.  Right now, it appears landscape and half the size of the other covers.  Any help is greatly appreciated!  I'm quite new to this.  It's my first book!

    Use iTunes Producer to look up the metadata for your book and then replace the cover image and resubmit.
    According to "Using iTunes Producer 2.6 for Books", you can update publication details except for the ISBN and the book type.
    And, according to "iBookstore: Publisher User Guide 2.0":
    If you discover errors in the EPUB file, book cover, pricing, clearances, or metadata, you can update them by simply redelivering via iTunes Producer.

  • ITunes won't play one song after another automatically.

    I have an iMac . iTunes has always played one selection after another automatically, and I am not talking about shuffle. I downloaded an audio book (Mp3 files) which loaded into music, but I have to choose each segment manually, it won't play one segment sequentially automatically.

    Are the selections un-checked?  Items that are not checked will not automatically play.  If they are checked, go into Get Info and see if you have the "Skip when shuffling" option set -- if it is, and if you happen to have Shuffle turned on, they won't play.

  • Itunes won't open, music gone after installing ipod/itunes software again

    I was using itunes to purchase music and burn it to cds. I recently got a nano and tried to install the software last night. Now Itunes won't open, and I don't even see any of my downloaded music on my computer. It's possible that it's a problem with my computer, but we're also looking into the issues reported with Norton, etc. I should know more by tonight. My question is how do I get my music back if it was somehow deleted by this process? Obviously I've already purchased it, but I don't remember all the songs and I didn't have a backup.

    You need to search your hard drive(s) and recycle bin for the music files.
    Purchased music will always have a .m4p file extension.
    Without a backup, if the files are gone, the music is gone.

  • ITunes won't recognize iPhone 5 after I attempted to download iOS 7

    I tried to download iOS 7 and I got an error message and iTunes said the update failed. Since that moment, my phone has shown the iTunes logo with the cable, prompting me to plug my phone into my computer and sync it with iTunes. Conveniently enough however, iTunes won't recognize my iPhone when I plug it in, but it will recognize my iPod touch when I plug that in to the computer. I have restarted my computer, reinstalled iTunes numerous times and yet nothing has worked. So essentially I have no ability to restore my phone and no ability access it in any way shape or form.....any help?!

    What version of iTunes are you running?

  • ITunes 10.6. Cover art taking CPU power

    Can somebody (who can see cpu percentages) try this:
    -open iTunes (10.6.) and use the last option in the right showing cover flow + list of music underneath
    -play random
    -put iTunes in the miniature mode (green button) and press forward (next piece) for about 10-25 times
    -look at the CPU percentages - they go high! -at least for me
    When I press the green button again (open window), it seems the cover flow is stuck and it starts to look for the right cover.
    Anybody else with this problem??

    Hate to say it, but I'm having the same issue with the Mini Player after updating to iTunes 10.6
    For years now I have enjoyed waking the Mac, clicking the play button on the Mini Player and resuming where I left off.
    At this point I really don't have an answer and I'm still trying to sort out what has changed..?
    The strange part is that everything else is working as expected, except that after a short period of time (sometimes after 2, 3 or 4 Albums) the CPU usage for iTunes jumps up to around 50 or 60% just like you have described. Even weirder is the fact that when I switch back to the normal full size Cover Flow window, the CPU usage instantly drops back to normal.. After trying a bunch of different stuff (restarting, repairing permissions, etc...) and playing around for awhile, kind of chalked it up as a beg or malfuntion between the Mini Player and Cover Flo same as you.
    One work around that seems to be working for me is, I have switched the main iTunes window from Cover Flo to (boring) List view and now the Mini Player seems to be fine.
    Other than that, at this point our best hope it to contact iTunes Support and send Feedback to iTunes.

  • ITunes distorting non-square cover art

    I have some non-square album art that displays in the now playing/selected window with black bars at the top and bottom as expected.  However, the album art is stretched to a square in grid view.  This happens only to some non-square artwork.  For example, Jimmy Eat World's Stay On My Side Tonight is stretched to a square, but Mutemath's self-titled remains a rectangle.  I understand that iTunes resamples album artwork, but how/why is it changing the shape?

    3. Use Media Monkey to remove the embedded artwork in the individual tracks *directly off the iPod* -- not iTunes.
    I've posted elsewhere that artwork seems to take up about 0.5% of the average music file. Removing all artwork on a 160Gb iPod (or 148Gb when 1Gb = 2^9) would save about 0.75Gb - hardly worth all the effort I'd have thought.
    4. Non-square artwork gets resized/cropped as viewed on the iPod.
    While the artwork is resized to fill the display area as far as I can tell it isn't cropped and will retain the original aspect ratio. Generally images that are wider than they are tall break up the smooth line of albums in cover flow and are quite easy to spot.

  • Itunes won't recognize iphone 3gs after upgrade to IOS 5

    Backup for Iphone on itunes was made on DELL INSPIRON MINI 10 laptop running XP Professional, Thursday evening 10-13-2011.
    Upgraded Itunes to new system (ios 5) Friday evening 10-14-2011.
    Connected Iphone to laptop Saturday afternoon to sync and upgrade phone to ios 5. after 2 hours phone was wiped clear, and itunes dropped recognition icon from list. several attempts were made to re-sync. all failed, itunes would not recognize. ended up restarting phone and installing upgrade on another computer. Laptop still failed to recognize.
    attempted upgrade to Ipod and it locked up on "Disconnect before removing'. opened Itunes dropdown and selected 'Diagose devise' and was able to restore ipod and sync with itunes. afraid to attempt 'diagnose' with iphone, now that it is working.
    back-up for iphone still appears on itunes,,,, just can't back it up...XP is unable to 'ICloud' and my DELL Window Vista Home Premium won't install updates so ICloud won't load....

    Help please - my computer does not recognize iPhone after upgrading to IOS4 and iTunes 9.2 ---- I have WIndows 7 --- have tried EVERYTHING and still it does not work. I want to do my albums via the computer, not iTunes since it adds the Photo Library folder, which is a duplicate of all my picture folders.
    Does anyone have a real solution please? I have uninstalled, installed, deleted drivers, installed drivers - the computer says the drivers are working, but obviously not.
    When is Apple going to post the solution so that people will know what to do - seems everyone has an idea, but none are working for me and the extra photo folder frankly drivers me crazy ---- something about iPod cache ----- do not want duplicate pictures.
    And, will albums be able to be edited - can these pics not be sent to Facebook.
    I know, several topics ----- what a mess Apple has created with IOS4 and iTunes 9.2. Ready to send the phone back!
