  • Photos won't sync: "Cannot be displayed on your iPod"

    Many of my photos will no longer sync from iTunes (Aperture photos) on my Macbook to my iPod Touch. For example, out of 250 photos, only 2 sync.
    iTunes says:
    "Some of your photos, including the photo "xxxx.jpg", were not copied
    to the iPod "Leo's iPod Touch" because they cannot be displayed on your iPod."
    These same photos synced fine from iPhoto, but awhile ago I switched to Aperture. I also recently installed Lion.
    Any idea what can be done to rectify this? Thanks.

    Fixed, by deleting the iPod Photo Cache folders in both the iPhoto and Aperture libraries.

  • The album artowrk won't display on my iPod.

    To put it basically, the album artwork does not display on my iPod any more. It is shown in iTunes, and when I right-click on a song and look at its "info" It shows the artwork.
    I have tried deleting all of the songs and re-adding them from their original files, but nothing happens. What can I do?
    All songs have been purchased from iTunes.

    Well you should be able to do this with the newest iTunes, I have no trouble doing this.
    I just copy/paste an image into the artwork box. This doesn't work for you?
    Doing this didn't didn't work in iTunes 7, but does in iTunes 7.0.1.

  • Error -50 when trying to display artwork on ipod 5th gen

    I had this problem recently where the artwork went all wierd and wrong album covers were showing, so I thought that I'd remove all artwork using itunes (version 7.0.2.16) update the ipod, remove ipod, reset it, reconnect it and then update again with display artwork checked. It seemed like a good idea at the time but wasn't! Now all the artwork has been removed and when I try to apply 'display artwork on ipod' I get the following error message:
    "ipod can't be updated. an unknown error occurred (-50)"
    In short, I am now left with no artwork and can't seem to get any of it back onto my ipod despite the fact that it is all correctly atached to the tracks id and dispays ok in itunes.
    Any ideas would be gratefully received...

    Does anyone have a better solution? I am having this same error, and I really don't want to re-encode anything on my originals. I've done that in the past and I was unhappy with the resulting media in an ABX test. Why does iTunes have to be so picky. One of the songs is in my top 10 favorite that I listen to all the time, and as such I KNOW the song displays no obvious corruptions. AAC is the devil.

  • *** How to get Album Artwork to display on your iPod: ANSWERED!

    I'll start by saying that my iPod Nano would not display ANY album art at all, even though it did in iTunes. I just added 180 albums to my iPod, and they all showed up, perfectly. Here's how I did it:
    1) Move all the songs you want on your iPod into the iTunes music library. (Open iTunes, and drag the files over the "LIBRARY" catagory)
    2) Click Music, under the LIBRARY heading.
    3) Add the artwork to each song/album. I used "iTunes Art Importer". It's a great program, and is really easy to use/download.
    4) Connect your iPod to your computer.
    5) Remove any songs you have on the iPod.
    6) Go to the Music tab, in the iPod control panel.
    7) Sync all music files/playlists from your iTunes library.
    If you did this correctly, all the album art you added in your iTunes library should display on your iPod. Be sure to have "Display Album Art on this iPod" checked off.

    I was searching for exactly the same issue in the forum.
    I've tried mutiple ways of copying the artwork into the iPod, all to no avail.
    Just like yours, the artwork shows up in iTunes, but not on the iPod screen,and only for a few select albums, mainly stuff I've put in recently (although some new artwork does show).
    I checked to see if there was an issue with the artwork format, but they're all .jpg images, so there shouldn't be any issues there.
    Let's hope someone else might have a solution for us.

  • How do I find the option to enable artwork to be displayed on my iPod

    When I connect my iPod to itunes, the music when synced does not display any artwork despite the fact that all artwork is present in my itunes library. Where do I locate the feature to alter this and how do I sort this? Thanks.

    There is no such feature.  It was removed as of iTunes version 9.  The only way to rebuild your iPod's artwork cache database is to connect the iPod Nano to your iTunes library and restore it to factory settings.

  • Is there a way to check if the touch screen and display works whilst iPod is apart?

    Hi,
    I pulled my iPod Touch 4G apart up to the circuit board in order to pull out the headphone socket.
    Before I pulled it apart, the screen was cracked but everything was perfectly visible and the touch function worked perfectly.
    Because the screen was cracked, when I pulled the iPod apart, I obviously lost small chunks of the screen.
    Now when I plug the two plugs from the LCD screen into the circuit board and put the iPod together without screws, it looks like this:
    http://s251.photobucket.com/user/matt9210/media/2013-06-19014523_zps86e6bc6e.jpg .html
    So I'm not sure whether buying a new screen is the answer, because I'm worried it will still have the same effect on the new screen.
    Another question: The headphone socket wasn't working. I had to hold the earphones in order to get any sound, and knocking them would lose the sound. I checked with other earphones before opening the iPod, so it's a problem with the iPod. What do I do with the headphone socket to avoid this problem?
    Also, is this good enough to replace the iPod screen? A lot cheaper than I thought, thought I'd check what the catch is.

  • The display of my ipod touch comes up as usual and then goes faint to the extent of not being able to read anything. In the meantime it has lost all the contents. what can be the course/

    When switched on the display of my my Apple Ipod Touch comes up as usual and then dimms to such an extend that I cannot see anything. Also when connected to the PC, It shows that there is no content in the Music and Video folders. I restored the OS and upgraded it to 4.2. But the display is even worse. Do help me to sort this out.

    If you restored to factory defaults/new iPod and still have a problem then you likely have a hardware problem.  An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Can I adjust the sorting of Podcast as displayed on the IPOD itself

    Itunes by default sorts my podcast with the newest podcast at the top.
    If I want to redisplay the sorting within iTunes, I just click on the release date column and they re-sort with the oldest at the top. This doesn't change the way they sort in the ipod window. The ipod still displays the newest at the top.
    I'm just learning about the sort order field in itunes - info - sorting but I don't see how this can set up the change of date option as a permanent change to sort by date descending. Any advice or am I just trying to mess with my ipod too much.
    Thanks,
    Nyimbo

    Don't worry about messing with your ipod too much. It is probably the best way to learn about it.
    So far the best way I have found is to create a playlist, I usually use the same name as the podcast, sort the podcast by the release date, select all of them and add to the playlist. Then just play the podcast from the playlist.
    Someday Apple may wake up and realize people, their customers, would like to install podcasts onto their iPods in the same order they are in iTunes.

  • Displaying artwork on ipod

    I have downloaded artwrok to i tunes and checked the box 'display album artwork on your ipod' However images appear on my p.c. but nothing appears on my ipod Any ideas?

    I have had exactly the same error on my 5G iPod - stops half way through with 'Error - 50'. Now some iPod tracks have artwork whereas most do not. Also, I tried the same technique to uncheck album artwork - apply then check album artwork - apply on my iPod nano and again only about 50% of the artwork made it across to the iPod, but this time without the error message. Any clues gratefully accepted. NB - I 'Manually Manage' all my playlist on both iPods.
