No album art on my Purchased songs after I got the new iTunes 10

uggh... iTunes always does the worst things to me...
This all started yesterday when I decided I would treat myself in trying to get the new 4.2 software on my iPod Touch. To prepare for the update, I backed up my iPod a couple times to make sure I wouldn't lose anything. I went to get the update, and I got a pop up saying I needed to transfer my Purchases. I didn't really see the point in this, but I did it, just to find all my Purchased songs off of my iPod and only stored on my computer. I had to wait awhile to get those back onto my iPod (I don't even know why they were taken off in the first place!), and when I went back to the Music library on my iPod I had no album art on my purchased songs. On iTunes, it shows the pictures on there just fine! Even on landscape, the picture is just that stupid gray music note that taunts me in my dreams... ok maybe that's exaggerating a bit... or not really...
anyways, I'm pretty mad about all this and I've had it with iTunes doing crap to my iPod that even GOOGLE can't help me with! (hence the purpose of me joining this forum: try searching "no album art purchased" in Google. Nothing!) I mean I guess I could go onto Google Images and download EVERY SINGLE cover art again, and manually put them onto "Get Info", but I have like 60 Purchased songs! I don't want to go through that only to find that it made absolutely no difference.
Anyone else got this problem or have any idea why it's happening to me?!
watch it be something as simple as a unchecked box in Preferences...
btw, sorry for how lengthy this got... haha

The iOS 4.2.1 seems to have corrupted the artwork database on your Touch. I had some artwork issues too, but the solution is to simply Restore the iPod and re-load your last backup. Of course, make sure that everything on your iPod is also in your iTunes library (which is why your purchases were transferred before the OS update).

  • Album art does not match songs after syncing iPhone on new iTunes

    Hi,
    I recently updated my iTunes to version 11.1.12.  After doing so, I soon realized that the album art for my songs does not transfer to my iPhone correctly.  On iTunes the album art for each song is matched correctly, but when I sync it to my phone, my phone displays artwork for other songs.  So when I have song 1 and song 2, the album art for song 1 is tagged with song 2 on my iPhone...i'm very frustrated and have tried everything but a hard reset which i'm REALLY hoping I don't have to do.
    HELP HELP HELP!!

    I've had this same problem a couple times. First time I didn't have a clue as to cause but fixed it by unsyncing all music (removing it from phone) and resyncing it back on. This latest time the miss matched artwork occurred on albums I bought on my iPad and then sync'd to my computer and then to my iPhone. Artwork is fine on the iPad and computer (iTunes 10.0.1.22 on XP machine). Artwork shows as other albums for only new purchased albums from iPad. I haven't had time to do the unsyncing and resyncing but will do it this soon and report in to verify that it worked (or didn't). I'm hoping the artwork the iTunes couldn't find, and I did from various places on the net, will be there when I resync the music.

  • My iPhone 3Gs is now no longer a recognised device on iTunes after I downloaded the new iTunes with iCloud software, but it does recognise my iPad2??

    My iPhone 3Gs is now no longer a recognised device on iTunes after I downloaded the new iTunes with iCloud software, but it does recognise my iPad2??
    I run both Mac and a PC and have iTunes on both, which has previously recognised my iPhone. I had updated my Mac with the new iTunes software with iCloud and updated my iPad2 just yesterday. I then wanted to do the same with my iPhone today, but my Mac wouldn't recognise the device so I tried it on my PC, which recognised the phone but told me I needed to update my iTunes and this in turn wanted to update my iPhone software. After completing all this and restarting, my iPhone now shows the iTunes icon with the USB plug pointing towards it, obviously wanting me to plug it in to my computer to re-connect with iTunes, but now neither of my computers recognise my iPhone and my PC states an 'Unknown Device'. My Mac doesn't even see it. Can anyone help as I really need to get my phone working?? Thanks

    Hold down the Home and Power button for 20 seconds. And try to update again.

  • Hello after updating to the new iTunes i got a box saying that i needed a new version of Apple Mobile Device Support and ihat i should uninstall iTunes and Apple Mobile Device Support then install iTunes again.  I have been unable to uninstall itunes

    Hello- after updating to the new iTunes i got a box saying that i needed a new version of Apple Mobile Device Support and ihat i should uninstall iTunes and Apple Mobile Device Support then install iTunes again.  Problem is I have been unable to uninstall itunes, can't find the installation files .msi.  I'm using Windows XP. 
    Help!

    Problem is I have been unable to uninstall itunes, can't find the installation files .msi.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • How do I get my music that was purchased on my Iphone, back after I got the new update?

    I recently got the new update for my 3GS Iphone, and I had purchased some music on the Itunes on my phone. So I synced my phone right before the update, and backed it up. I did the update, and now I have nothing. The music that I purchased on my Iphone hadn't been put on my Macbook (I made a mistake there), and now its NO WHERE to be found. Help please??? 

    If for some reason you failed to transfer purchases to your computer before updating, then you can redownload in some countries:

  • After updating to the new iTunes, my Play/Pause(f8), Forwad(f9) and Rewind(f7) buttons no longer work (Macbook Pro 13")

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded to OSX Yosmite and the new iTunes 12.
    After upgrading, iTunes no longer responds to the Play/Pause, Forward & Rewind buttons on my keyboard.
    I am using iTunes on a Macbook Pro 13" (non-retina version).
    Any help to get these buttons to work again would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Rawbex
    Edit: I'm also currently re-installing iTunes on my Mac to see if that solves any of the problems I'm experiencing.  This includes another issue that has appeared, where Google Play Music no longer recognizes iTunes. (Although, this separate issue will probably have to be solved by Google, not Apple).
    Edit 2: Unfortunately, reinstalling iTunes did not solve or fix anything.

    Hi,
    I Found this post that helped me solve the same problem,
    I has to do with Google Music taking over the same function keys. I uninstalled Google Music from Chrome, and now the function buttons function.
    Media key: Play, Rewind and forward not working with iTunes anymore. Other keys work normally.

  • Got the new Itunes update..how do I drag and drop a song onto my phone now?

    Reluctantly, I updated my Itunes to the latest version. Glad they could make it a thousand times more confusing. If that was their goal...mission accomplished. I simply want to drag and drop a song that I purchased on my home computer to my ipod or iphone. In the good old days before the latest "improvement", you could simply drag the song to your device. Now, I can view my device. I can view the song. I cannot add the song to my ipod or iphone. Itunes helps actually offers no help for this basic operation. I've asked a few other pc people that have iphones/ipods and they say they just buy the song on their device because they cannot figure it out either. Was this really progress? Bravo on the update, apple guys. You made it so cool, now nobody but you fools can use it...

    I got my own answer !!   I saw it on another post.  Select "View" and then toggle down to "View Sidebar".
    Now I can drag and drop like before. 

  • I keep getting a session timeout message after agreeing to the new iTunes store terms.  Have reset the keychain and restarted iTunes.  No joy.

    The message is:  "Your session has timed out.  Please try this operation again from the beginning."  It appears immediately after I click on the I agree button.  This is the first time accessing the store since I upgraded to Snow Leopard.  The reply from the Apple Help person via email pointed to a web page that suggested there might be a problem with keychains so I used the Keychain Access app to verify and repair it/them/whatever.  I have never used keychains and really don't see any use for it/them.  I guess I can get along without new iPad apps, or maybe I'll have to...

    Having the same problem on my iMac.  I've tried everything to do with connection problems in the Help article re: the iTunes store with no results.  Also contacted Support, which referred me to the Help article and to the Support Communities i.e. here; no dice.  I get the idea that something's mixed up here; they told me it was probably my internet connection rather than an iTunes issue, but according to my diagnostics the network is working perfectly fine.  It has to be something on the far end - especially since there would appear to be no less than four people with the issue.
