Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. Also, discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again.

Don't know how to get album covers to show

I just got a 30gb iPod and want to know how to get the album covers to show when i play the song that the album relates to. I read something about using iPhoto but I have a PC. Can someone please tell me how to do this?

I have the albums on the songs in itunes
You put the album cover on the song file in iTunes?
the album pics are in the photos section of my ipod
This does nothing for displaying the cover on the iPod while it's playing.
i also checked to display album artwork from itunes
Uncheck it and then recheck it .
Are you using Manual or Auto update?

On my iPad some of my album covers simply show a question mark and do not display the cover

I know this is probably some issue from downloading, but the covers used to show and it is only a select amount of album covers that display the "?" Any help? Thanks!

Try contacting Support in your country, after confirming your id and that it's your account they should be able to reset its password.

If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've done that update the primary email address on the account to be an account that you have access to e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and logging into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com

Some album covers not showing up in iTunes artwork screensaver

I'm seeing a lot of similar topics so maybe there is no fix to this, but here goes anyways...
I just got my Macbook Air about a month ago so I have the newest OS and I check for updates frequently. Now all the music I have so far on my iTunes is music I ripped directly off CD's I own, not burnt copies but originals. Some of the artwork was missing and I corrected it already with the Artwork option in 'Get Info'. However when I check the iTunes screensaver there is ONE album cover that no matter what I try, it WILL NOT show up. It's starting to drive me crazy. Strangely enough it was the only CD my Superdrive had trouble reading, which I also had to google tirelessly and remedy.
Is there anything I can do to resolve this? It's just one image so it seems like it should be a quick fix, but I can't get around it. Help?

This happen sometimes (seldom) if the album art on one song in a album is corrupted.
Mark all songs from that album in iTunes at once or right click on Album in Album view
Open the info pane (Get info)
click the little Artwork window down right active and press backspace key to delete the Album Art from the songs.
Copy (drag&drop) the picture again in that little window
click OK and confirm the pop up
Then check again with the Album Art screen saver.

Some album covers not showing (do I need to be online?)

Hi,
Just got my imac back after a recent repair and found some itunes oddness:
The OS booted and everything appeared to be ok. In the limited time I had today though, I noticed that my iTunes Library was gone. I just got the large dialog box as if I was starting from scratch. Slightly concerned, I delved into my libraries using Libra and switched to my Nano library. I started itunes again, same dialog box, but this time cos it's a much smaller library, I decided to click on agree. Sure enough the library appeared in itunes as normal. Hmmmm, how odd. I then switched to my bigger library and did the same. All hunky dory now (no not the bowie album, I mean all good now) except for the fact that album covers took ages to appear and some haven't appeared at all. The ones that are still blank are (If I remember correctly) the covers that I have downloaded from the itunes store. Are they not appearing cos I'm not connected to the internet? Or do I have a problem there?
One other thing I spotted was that my You Control itunes controller had not started. When I started it manually it asked me to register which I can not yet do without the internet access.
If anyone could advise me of the itunes issues that'd be great.
Cheers
Lee

It does not check as far as I know, but it is what is written in the license agreement and the activation will not allow more than 2 installs. The license indicates they are for the owner and the intent is to be run on only one machine at a time by the owner.

I bought an album & it wont show up

I bought an album in itunes and its showing up under my recently added page but not under the artist on my music. why is this and how can i get it to show up?

Okay...problem solved. De-auth'd the computer under the updated account and re-auth'ed it. Songs played with no problem.

Im having trouble syncing my album covers any ideas on what it might be?

Anybody have any ideas

No. It is a problem with iOS 5/iTunes 10.5/10.6. I have not seen a solution. Sometimes unsyncing and resyning the songs helps.

Album Covers

I just got my new ipod. Had the last generation. Just one thing i can't figure out. How to get the album covers to show up on the Now Playing Screen, and transfering them from itunes to the ipod. I put them all on itunes but they did not transfer. Any Help? And if you don't understand what I mean if you look at your ipod box it has the Gorillaz on it with their album cover.Just interested. Comment please

okay, in itunes, locate your ipod in the itunes sources list on the left hand side, right click, and select ipod options.. be sure you are under the music tab and check the option down at the bottom that says display album artwork on your ipod.. update your ipod, and everything should be to your liking.. let me know if you have any problems.

IWeb wont show my changes.

Hi everyone.
My name is Takin, and im a graphical designer. This is my site: www.icandidesigns.com
Just recently found out about iWeb and its possibilites, but now ive encountered a problem.
If you see under 'portfolio' you can see that i only have two albums.
But in iWeb, i have three! So the third wont show up! Im using Filezilla FTP client - and all the necessary files are allready on my one.com server - but it just wont show!
What am i doing wrong?

Welcome to Apple Discussions iCandi,
When I visit your Portfolio @ http://www.icandidesigns.com/Portfolio/Portfolio.html I see 3 albums:
POSTERS, PHOTOSHOP CARS, and LOGO DESIGNS.
If these are the 3 that you are referring to then I think you are ok. That means that you published fine. Your web browser may need to be reset to get rid of your caches. If you are using Safari http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Safari/3.0/en/9300.html.
Hope that helps.

Duplicate Album Covers in Genius Mixes

So I've noticed that in my Genius Mixes on my iPod, some of the album covers show up twice for the same Mix. They show up correctly in iTunes, but for whatever reason, they don't on my iPod.
Mixes as they appear on iTunes:

Edit: Um. Yeah. I didn't mean to mark this as a question, but I didn't see that until after I clicked "post"...

I can't see the list or cover view while in Genius mixes.
You don't get list view or cover view with the mixes. You can always submit this as a request to Apple at:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
Also, some of the album covers are showing up and some not.
Are you talking about in iTunes? When you select that individual song in the main "music" section and pull up "Get info", do you see the artwork in the artwork tab?
Or is it ok in iTunes and is the problem just on your mobile device? If so, which one.
I can't see what the mix is as the list won't show up and that makes the Genius mix not worth using if I can't even see what Itunes is selecting for me.
You can pull it up in DJ if you want, and that gives you a glimpse of what's in there, but only a max of a 100 songs. But, frankly, it sounds like the lack of visibility into genius mixes are sufficiently annoying for you that you might want to consider not using it. Use plain old genius playlists (select song, hit , save it as a playlist): That behaves more like it sounds like you want.

Why do I not see all album covers on my itouch?

I have iTouch 4, software version 5.1.1. Using iTunes 10, version 10.6.3.25 on Windows 7. Not all of the album covers are showing on the iTouch; though the covers show in iTunes. It seems to be only the songs imported from CD; anything bought from iTunes store are fine. This just started. All covers have been showing until one of the recent iTunes or iTouch updates, not sure which. Help!

Great, but I have lots of playlists, will restoring from backup create those too?

Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

ITunes showing Album Covers of external hard disk i/o internal hard disk

Greetings from Malaysia again. Searched through the Discussion Group, but couldn't find anything there. Thus, hope to get your assistance on this matter.
I have some music stored in the internal hard disk of my G4 iBook. However, recently I decided to have all my music stored in an EXTERNAL hard disk, ie in addition to what's in the iBook, to sync with my iPod. Both have the artwork or album covers. The issue is when I boot up ONLY the iBook, even without the external hard disk on, iTunes (Version 8.1) is showing the Artwork/Album Covers (and list of music) of the EXTERNAL hard disk instead of what's in the iBook. I've even tried the "Option key/Choose Library", but to no avail. I've even tried changing the location, after starting up iTunes in the Preference settings, but still the same story.
Is there any way to have iTunes reflect the correct Artwork/Album Covers (and list of music) when I have the external hard disk connected, as well as otherwise?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards.

Moved the existing library. Created a new one, and moved all the songs to the new library. Subsequently, when using the "Option" key to select the library, it ended up as what I wanted, ie iTunes showing the album covers for the songs/album in the respective library - ie external hard disk, and internal in the notebook.

My album covers wont show up, what do i do?
