MPMediaItemArtwork bug when upgrading xcode4 ios4 to xcode4.2 ios5

Question

Hi there,
I have just upgraded xcode from 4 to 4.2 and implicitly from ios 4 to ios 5, after surrviving all of the provisioning problems and changes that i had to make in my code in order for it to build without problems, i noticed a very strange artifact that wasn't there before !
When the code was running on xcode 4 ios 4 i could get the artwork image from a MPMediaItem for an album like so:
MPMediaItemArtwork *artwork = [item valueForProperty: MPMediaItemPropertyArtwork];
UIImage *source = [artwork imageWithSize:artworkSize];
when artwork size is defined as (66,66)
That code used to work, and after the upgrade some albums doesn't get the image, source is nil, although artwork pointer is not.
I know it is related to the upgrade, but i can't figure it out, what have changed ???
Thanks,
Omry

Hi there,
Just wanted to give more information on the subject, i've noticed that the ipod app was missing from my new ios 5 s spring board and then i understood that there is a new app by the name of Music.
So i decided to open it and see if i can see the album cover of the album that is failing in my code, the same cover that i could see in the ipod app before the upgrade, and guess what ?
I can not see, it is missing from the music app too, so what is going on ?
I opened iTunes and synched everything but it didn't solve the problem
