Lost album covers from amazon and not itunes store?

lost some of my album covers since transfer of library to new computer. how do i get it back as some music was purchased through amazon and not itunes store?

If it's a relatively small number of songs, select the song or songs (with missing album artwork) in the iTunes music library listing.  Right-click on the selected song(s) and select Get Album Artwork.
If you want iTunes to go through your entire music library, select Music under LIBRARY in the iTunes sidebar.  From the menu bar, under the Advanced menu, select Get Album Artwork.  Don't do it this way, if you have some albums where you added artwork that you selected yourself, because they may get replaced.
It does not matter if a song was purchased in the iTunes Store, ripped from CD, or purchased at Amazon (or elsewhere).  If the song can be identified as a song in the iTunes Store database, it will get the artwork for it.
Some artwork may not be available.  In that case you can add your selection.  A good way to do it, if the songs came from Amazon, is to find the song or album at Amazon.  On the web page for the song or album, click-hold-drag the image (of the album artwork) from the browser window to the iTunes window, and drop it where the album artwork normally appears.  NOTE:  You can do this for multiple songs at one time.

  • Why are my album covers from purchased songs on itunes dissapeared

    why are the album covers gone from the songs i purchased from itunes. i have part of them,the rest are gone

    I have a slightly different problem. I have a few artists "Greatest Hits" albums, My iPohone's "iPod" doesn't know the difference between each album. For example:
    Queen's Greatest Hits, Guns 'N' Roses Greatest Hits and Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits are all jumbled together into 1 "album" this is fine sometimes gives a bit of variety, but some days i just want to listen to GNR or Queen or Alice Cooper.
    The only way to do this is to go in through the "Artist's" Tab instead of "Albums" still, it is annoying.
    Any help for this would be appreciated.
    (sorry to distract from the original post )
    Cheers!

  • Bought 64gb playbook from amazon and not sure if its new or refurbishe​d.

    Bought 64gb playbook from amazon for my daughter and not sure if its new or refurbished.  Tablet has small fine scratches on the back, hair stuck in the casing, no screen protector, brown adaptor box has had label of some kind removed, adapter inside is loosely bound.   Amazon supplier advises me to return but also that it isn't supplied with a screen protector or cover and adapter is new and packaged in a brown box.  Not sure whether to accept a replacement or just get a refund.  A bit concerned that this is a refurbished item being supplied as new.
    Solved!

    Definately sounds like it's not a new item, this isn't how they come packaged.

  • HT201272 How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable?  The album shows as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized devi

    How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable?  The albums show as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized device.  I also have albums that appear in my library, but are not able to be added to my iPod from my computer

    When you download something from the iCloud, it is a brand new licensed copy. Your iCloud account just contains a notation that you have this app. It isn't storing an actual copy of the app from your Mac.

  • After upgrading to iOS 5, I lost my contacts, calendar entries, and Notes on my iPhone 3GS (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

    Yikes! After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, I lost my Contacts, calendar entries, and Notes (100+) on my iPhone (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

    This happened to me too but it was really all there.  Go to your calendar, click on calendar in the upper left hand corner, click on show all calendars, click done in the right upper corner.  Everything should show up!!!
    I was super thrilled.  Hope this works for you!!

    As I said you need to:
    You need to wipe the hard disk and reinstall the OS by booting into the recovery partition and reinstall the original OS via the internet. It will ask you to enter your ID

  • Screen Saver of itunes album covers.. choosing album covers from playlist??

    Is it possible to have a screen saver, like the one in preferences which combines all your album covers from itunes, but instead choosing the album covers from a playlist?

    I don't have an answer for you, but I do have a few questions.
    How would the screen saver know which playlist to display album covers from? If it is selecting covers from all of your playlists, how is it different from a screen saver which shows you all of your album covers?

  • I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.

    I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.

    What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and is it connected to wifi ?
    From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support :
    Here’s what you need to stream the new iTunes Extras:
    Mac using OS X Mavericks v10.9.3 or later and iTunes 11.3 or later
    PC using iTunes 11.3 or later
    Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation or later) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later (You need to connect to Wi-Fi. Extras won't appear if you're connected to a cellular network.)
    An active Internet connection
    You can use the steps below on your Apple TV, Mac, PC, or iOS device for any purchased, HD movie that features Extras:
    On your Apple TV, select Movies, then select your movie to see the Extras menu. Extras aren't available from the Computer tile on Apple TV (Home Sharing).
    On your Mac or PC, open iTunes and go to the Movies section in your iTunes library. Double-click your movie. If there's no Internet connection, the Extras menu will be skipped. The movie will immediately play if you already downloaded it.
    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the Videos app, then tap your movie. If you're connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi, the Extras menu will appear.

  • How to get album artwork from amazon

    How can I get album artwork from amazon ?

    iTunes will only fetch artwork for albums that are on sale in the iTunes Music Store (and sometimes even that doesn't work if the info tags aren't identical). If you have a lot of albums that are older, obscure or simply not licensed for sale in the store iTunes won't add any artwork.
    If the artwork isn't available in iTunes you can also add images of your own manually. You'll get information on both methods at this link: iTunes for Windows - Adding artwork to songs and other items
    When you can't find the album covers you want from iTunes you can get them from various other sources. I find this site is a good source of artwork which you can copy to your computer: CD/Album Cover Art Search from SlothRadio.
    Another place for finding suitable artwork is to go to Amazon. You can also locate artwork using Google image search and put the artist or album name. Locate the album from any of those sources, right click on the image and save it to the desktop, once it's there drag it to the iTunes artwork pane. Once you've added the artwork you can either delete the original file or keep it in a folder somewhere in case you need to use it again. Alternatively there are programs like these that help locate artwork: iTunes Art Importer or MP3 Tag
    If you have a scanner you can create your own artwork files by scanning the CD cover itself, this is particularly useful when you are dealing with rare recordings.

  • Downloading music from Amazon straight to Itunes

    So when I download music from Amazon straight into ITunes and the song appears in ITunes and plays in there but will not synch to my IPod becuase it says that the file cannot be found...I am just screwed?

    The default location for Amazon music is a folder called "Amazon MP3" inside your your Music folder on your main hard drive. What operating system do you have? If it's XP you can find this folder as follows: C>Documents & Settings>Your Name>My Documents>My Music>Amazon MP3.
    See if you can find this folder. Look inside to see if the song file is here.

  • Will I get all the album covers if I download the iTunes essentials albums?

    Will I get all the album covers if I download the iTunes essentials albums or will I just recieve the iTunes essentials album cover?

    Since no one seems to have answered ...
    I get the impression that iTunes essentials are just lists of tracks.
    iTunes uses the Artist and album information to determine the artwork so it should pick up the appropriate artwork for each track if the album and artist are correct.
    Certainly this is the case for an album consisting of tracks from several albums - if the artist and album name are set to the original album.

    The only content that you can download for apps, games, music etc on the iPad is from the App Store or from iTunes. No that game will not work on the iPad.

  • I attempted to purchase u2's new album - songs of innocence at the itunes store. The icon says "purchased" yet I am quite sure I have not purchased it. There are no songs in my library nor is there any record of the purchase in the account history.

    Everyone was given the album. It was a gift from U2 and Apple. You can go to purchases and download it to your device.
