No fullscreen scrolling album art?

Checking out the iPad and much to my surprise i cannot locate the fullscreen scrolling album art view on the iPod app. Surely the iPad has this since even the iPhones do this. Was this view left out or am i just missing the view option?

After reading a few online sources it's not something we have overlooked but something apple just decided to levee out. What's going to really suck is if they release an OS update that adds this feature that has already existed on older devices and previous OS versions...AND charge for it. Even if they don't charge it will be embarrassing to see them list it as "new" feature.

Shutdown function and view album art by Genre..

Is it only me that would find a Shutdown at end of album function useful? When your lying in bed listening to music, i don't want to have to get up and switch my machine off, i want an option in iTunes that will shutdown my machine at the end of the playlist or Album.. any one else think thats useful?
What about viewing Album art via Genre? When you select a Genre, then click on the scroll album art button it shows the whole of your library!?!?! how stupid! i only want the albums in that Genre!
Grr... how many times i've sent that to Apple as a feature request i have no idea... since itunes 5 i think!! C'MON!

Please add your computer info to your profile using the My Settings link on the right side of the page.
I don't know about Windows, but on a Mac, there is a scheduled sleep/shutdown option in the Energy Saver Preference pane.. There are also quite a few free and cheap options available for download that can do it. If you're on Windows, you might look around to see what options you have.
When you select a Genre, then click on the scroll album art button it shows the whole of your library!?!?! how stupid! i only want the albums in that Genre!
Not sure where you're selecting the Genre, but if you're talking about the Browse option (the eye icon), when you switch to CoverFlow view, you are no longer Browsing, you are in CoverFlow.
If you switch between the different views (List, AlbumArt, CoverFlow) you'll notice that the Browse function is disabled for CoverFlow.
Of course, you could always create Smart Playlists to group your songs by Genre which would eliminate the need to rely on the Browse function.

Cover Flow album art and scroll buttons scrambled (7.5)

Hello, Everything has been fine with my i tunes but i opened it the other day and the cover flow view is playing up. All the album covers/podcast displays etc are just scrambled (a series of horizontal coloured lines like a faulty TV.)
the scroll bar and the show full screen buttons are also shown scrambled. if you play a song the album art shows in the left corner fine but the flow art is still scrambled. any ideas anyone? i have tried lots of restarts but it is no better. the only thing i have done is windows update which did some .net updates. regards john

They are all still there!
7.3 is broken.
I replaced it with 7.2 and all is well until they fix the problem. This list is full of this problem!

Album Art is blurred or just pixels

When a song is playing, the album art is just a bunch of random pixels. But if hit the select button and scroll to only album art, it looks normal. What I dont get is that the blurred pixels is a smaller image than the image that shows up correctly.

Does a Reset help? The iPod has to rescale the image twice for display - first for the thumbnail, then again for the quasi-fullscreen. So it's not inconceivable that one could get messed up and not the other.

Album Art not showing up?

Has anyone else had a problem with their album art not showing up in coverflip? These are all CD's that I own and ripped onto my computer with iTunes, and if I look at them in iTunes I can see the cover art. But when I turn my ipod sideways to flip through the albums, I see a bunch of black squares. Some of the albums I can see the artwork when it's not the selected album, but if I scroll to it, the art disappears and it's just an empty black square. The only albums where this seems to work properly are the ones I bought and downloaded digitally through iTunes, but most of my music collection is CD's, so I'm really hoping there's a way to fix this.
I've already tried googling pictures of the album art and re-tagging the songs with the picture on there, and it does do a sync afterwards, but I'm still seeing black squares. I also tried deleting one of the albums from my ipod entirely, and reloading it, and that worked the first time I went into coverflip, but in subsequent tries it has reverted back to being just a black square.

use the search discussions box. there are loads of threads on this. you definitely aren't alone
the only real solution i've seen is to re-sync the problem tracks, i've probably missed some though, so it's worth looking around.

How to properly embed album art work into TV/Films itunes: home sharing lag

My setup is a simple apple home sharing network.
I have a mac mini running OS X 10.6.8 and itunes 11.0.4(4) it hosts a lot of music, DVD's that have been re-encoded and paid for content from itunes.
The mac mini is conntected to the network over a very good gigbit lan and has 4 apple TV3 (latest gen) hanging off the network, and multiple PC/Mac/ipod/ipad devices hanging off the network.
I connect to the itunes home sharing service with the apple TV service using the "remote" application on the ipad.
When I select Music/Albums TV Shows or Films from the menu of the itunes library the album art work loads (quickly) over the grey boxes as I scroll down. However this takes a few seconds for each "scroll" I do on the ipad (it has thousands of items in there).
The exception to the rule is any paid content, when I open Music/TV/Films menu on the ipad the paid content (especially for TV and Films) the artwork is already there, and doesn't have to load it.
How is the artwork for paid content contained differently than the artwork for content I've manually put into the itunes library.
If I look at the itunes library locally on the machine hosting the itunes data, the artwork is there straightaway, no loading, pull up the items info with "get info" and click on art work, the artwork is there, and I can see no different in the art work settings for paid content or for content I've manually updated/loaded an image for.
So why/how does the paid for content have artwork on the ipad the exact second I open it over the network, yet the non-paid for content take a few seconds per screen to load it.
Is there something different in how the art work is embeeded, or is it a caching setting ? whats the difference.

Dang You Autocorrect.
You don't saw what size and resolution the embedded artwork is. This could be part of the issue. Artwork on movies you purchase from the iTunes Store is 667x1000 at 72 DPI so if yours is larger than this is could be causing the delay.

Album Art Issue

My album art works for almost every album I have (except that I have album art on every album, so it shouldn't be an almost!).
I've realized that the album art won't show on albums/artists that have a music video of the same album/artist... so I gave the music videos the proper artwork. However that didn't solve the problem.
I don't know how anyone would suggest fixing this, but it hasn't seemed to be an issue for anyone that I've noticed. I hope someone at apple reads this forum, but I'm sending them a technical support email anyway. I hope this issue can be cleared up in an update sometime soon.

Are you sure the Album Art is included on every song on that album?
The art is stored with every song not per album.
Do a Get Info on the first song n an album an click Next while viewing the artwork to scroll thru all the songs on that album.

ZEN VISION:M What happened to the Album art???/What do you use to transf

I've had my zen vision m since last summer and absolutely love it. Recently though I reformatted and added my entire library with the zen vision m media explorer like I always do. I have always tagged my music with musicmatch jukebox so that the album art shows up on my zen. This time however there is no album art. What's going on, is it the new firmware?
How do the rest of you add your tracks? There's at least fi've different ways I've discovered to do it, but in the past the media explorer was always the best.

Hi,
I think you're in fullscreen mode. Press F11 to turn it off/on.

Can someone help with an album art issue???

I am using iTunes 9.....this problem was in iTunes 8 too....but anyway....when i get a new album I make a new playlist and put the album in the playlist......and when I click the arrow that pulls out the sidebar to view the album art for the album each song has its own icon for album art.....but I would like the entire playlist to have one icon because they're all off of the same album......how might i manage this??
heres a link to another forum with pictures of what I'm talking about:
http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=199060

I've dealt with that space after a title issue before, but usually with artist names. If the space after the title is different for different tracks, they are not identical, that's why my advice was to change them all at the same time.
I periodically scroll through my artists and albums in the column browser looking for just that sort of issue, because if they're not identical in itunes, they're going to be separated on my ipod.
And while I love making convoluted playlist systems myself, I agree with the unsolicited advice on separate playlists for every album. You are going to see slower loading times eventually.

Resolution of album arts associated with audio files - downscaled?

The iPod can display album art with a maximum resolution of 240 by 240 pixels. What happens if a picture file of higher resolution is associated with some audio tracks?
Is it being downscaled and then, with far less space required, transfered to the device?
And another question unrelated to the one above: I saw the font size changing between audio files, although their file name or description isn't longer than the ones being displayed regularly. Is this a bug?
Is there a way to change the font size? It'd be very handy since titles of tracks that are longer than the screen can display, it's a mess to wait until it scrolled all the way through...
Thanks!

Hello dr. orange,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Is it being downscaled and then, with far less space required, transfered to the device?
That is correct. During the syncing process, a smaller scaled down version of each track's artwork is created and then transferred to the iPod.
I'm not entirely sure about the font size issue you are seeing, but there is no way to adjust this on the Nano.
If you wish to, you can provide feedback to Apple on it through this link.

How do I turn off the album art in ios 7 iphone?

How do I turn off the album art in itunes on my iphone with ios 7?
I want to turn it off because it is not aesthetically pleasing and it makes the scroll list really long by pushing the title text further apart.
A few of the albums have the wrong artwork, which will push me over the edge. I don't want to fix the artwork. I just don't want the artwork.
Please tell me how I can turn it off.
Thanks,
Doug

Cover Flow Blurred Album Art - Bug?

Cover Flow is losing focus on whatever the displayed album art is after a few seconds of scrolling (image becomes burry). Once this happens it stays that way and affects all album art until Cover Flow is exited. Happens at random, doesn't seem to be caused by any particular piece of album art. Can most often (but not always) be reset by going out of Cover Flow mode either by going to a non-landscape mode or exiting Cover Flow altogether, but it is extremely annoying to be continually dropping in and out of Cover Flow to try to read the album art. It didn't do this when I had only a few album covers, but once I started loading it up with a bunch of stuff I started having problems. Could this be something like a single defective album art image file causing Cover Flow to go wacko, or is it simply a general bug? Any fixes or anyone else having this problem?

Yep, The blurry coverflow happens to me ONLY if I haul * across the albums then it catches up to me in about 2 seconds.....
I guess this time is needed to render the artwork?
I have never had to exit for it to work properly. I also noticed something like this happening when flipping quickly through pictures.

Album art images in images.

Some of my album art images are appearing when i open up my images. can i delete them from images or will it delete them from album art too

I've not really given this much thought for the time I've had the phone, but I've just spent ages looking through my images for an older photo and had to scroll up through countless album artwork.
Is there a way of keeping them separate from "normal photos"?

Album Art Missing in iPhone 16Gb 3G

When i transfer albums to my iPhone only some of the albums display album art. Every album in my iTunes library has album art, most of it I have manually attached to each album.
when i use the iTunes interface to look at the music on my iPhone it displays the album art in the "Selected Item" section in the bottom left corner. i have checked multiple albums, and every song in those albums has the artwork. so it displays the art in my iTunes library, it displays the art when i view the music on my iPhone in the iTunes interface, but it does not display the art when i scroll through the music using the iPhone.
am i totally missing something here?

This has been issue for long time even for iPods before iPhone.
The cause is this.
There are multiple ways of manually applying artwork to a song in iTunes. Only 1 is the best way to make sure artwork goes with the file.
The three ways are:
1. Drag a file/image to the bottom window where it displays artwork when a song is selected.
2. Using the "Find Album Artwork" option in the right click menu for a song.
3. Using "Get Info" option to bring up the Tags of the song and pasting a image into the artwork tab.
The 3rd is the best and only option you should use.
Here is why.
If you use the little artwork window and put images in there, or if you tell iTunes to find artwork, what it does is uses the image supplied or the one it finds and then saves that image to a hidden file on your computer. Then iTunes notes/saves a pointer to that file matched to song. So "iTunes" when playing or looking at the file will say, oh there is a pointer to a file, let me go find that file and display the image. All good and dandy for iTunes.
However when you move that file (manually to another machine or sync to a device) it just moves the media file. The hidden image doesn't go with it as iTunes just uses it.
So the 3rd option of using "Get Info" to get into the tag editor does it different.
In the tag editor you are literally editing data contained in the media file itself. Thus if on the Artwork tab in the tag editor if you paste an image in there, when saved it will embed the image into the media file itself. Thus if you move the file to another computer or sync, that file contains the artwork thus will always be available to it no matter where it is moved.
So in summary, ONLY ever add artwork by using the ArtWork tab in the tag editor (Get Info option).
Nice thing is too when you do, since it literally changes the file (can see date change property update...and filesize) then when you sync it will notice a file change and update the song on the device. If you use the other options, no change is ever done to the physical file thus you will notice the file not change it's change date or size, thus on syncing after assigning artwork those other two ways, it will not retransfer the file because to the iPhone/iPod, it has not changed so there is no need.

Movie album art - iTunes 11.0.5 (5)

I just updated iTunes to 11.0.5(5) now when i try to add album art to my movies iTunes crashes. Anyone experiencing this problem or have any suggestions on a fix? Before I updated I have added album art dozens of times with no issue using same process.
Thanks!

Following a posting from nyboy_x5 to a different problem, I opened my Norton Internet Security.
I went to Settings > Network> Smart Firewall > Program Rules: Configure > and then Scrolled to iTunes
and found the setting as "Auto".
I changed the setting to "Allow", then clicked "Apply" and now it works!
