Paste multiple artwork to album

I have several artwork for an album/several songs. I have not found a way to paste an artwork to an album/several songs without entirely replacing artwork that already exists for that album. In other words, when I select multiple tracks, do a "Get Info" and then paste artwork for those multiple tracks, it replaces the existing artwork.
I have about 10 albums I'm working with and each album has three artwork.
Any clues how to do this?

You can just drag and drop each artwork directly in the artwork viewer in the lower left corner of the iTunes window.
Just select all your songs for which you want to add artworks, make sure the artwork viewer is set to "Seleted Songs" by clicking on its title bar (to toggle from Now Playing to Selected Songs).
When an artwork is already present, the new picture will just add and you will see arrows in the artwork viewer title bar to view them all.

Multiple Artworks per Album...?

Hi everyone,
I have a couple of albums which came as two vinyls with diferent cover art, so I naturally wanted to seperate the album tracks into Disc 1 and Disc 2 in iTunes, and give the two discs different cover arts. My problem is this; when I then sync to my iPad (Air, 64GB Wi-Fi), only the Disc 2 tracks get artwork but the Disc 1 tracks stay blank. This happens on both albums so it's not just a random problem...
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Sam.

Sam Cooke,
Change the Album fields to "Night Beat - Disc 1" and "Night Beat - Disc 2." This will cause iTunes and your iPad to treat them as two different albums, and thus override the flaky logic that you are observing.

You can only join tracks when importing from a CD and likewise, the Options button is also only visible when importing from CD.
When the CD is in the drive and showing in iTunes, you will see Options, CD Info and Import CD choices. If you select Options, the Join CD Tracks option only appears when you have two or more adjacent tracks selected. See the screenshots below:

Just updated to itunes 12.1.0.71 - big problem - can no longer access the legacy "Get Info" where you could change multiple files, easily add artwork, add album name for TV show, and much more. In previous iTunes 12 you'd right click and hold shift key and be able to get to it. Anyone figured this out?

The "legacy" metadata editors, for which there was a "back door" in iTunes 12.0, have gone from 12.1. However, the revised editors in 12.1 provide access to (almost) all the metadata elements that were available in iTunes 11, albeit in a different layout and with some additional constraints based on media kind. Some users have / will have an issue with the statement that "Get Info has been completely redesigned in iTunes 12 to focus your attention only on what’s necessary for the selected item" since that removes some metadata elements that people may have been using in creative ways. iTunes 12.1 basically gives you access to the fields that Apple think are necessary ... . Some of the things that have been excluded by this rule:
track and disc number fields for video media kinds
show and episode fields for music
description tab for audiobooks made up of more than one file
Obviously the first two examples can be regarded as "overloading" the metadata elements - i.e., using them in ways that the designers didn't intend - but given that some users do find valid cases for this it's a shame that they've been deprecated in the new UI. There are couple of workarounds:
in songs view (or any of the other columnar views), you can still select any fields to display, independent of media kind, and these can be edited (though only one at a time) by double-clicking in the relevant "cell"
you can (temporarily) change the media kind of an item (or group of items) to get access to metadata elements that would otherwise be inaccessible.
It may be worth submitting an issue via https://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html - I can't see it as a huge development task to have a user preference to switch between "show all fields" and "filter fields based on media kind".
One other oddity/irritation is that some of the tabs don't, by default, show all the available fields - you need to scroll up/down to access them or to expand the window by dragging on one of its corners. Fortunately, the latter seems to be persistent - once you've done this to make all the fields visible the editor will open at the same (larger) size when opened again.

ITunes Get Artwork: "Artwork for [album name] cannot be found. You do not have permission to access the requested resource."

I just installed iTunes 10.5 (latest version as of 11 Jan 2012), onto a computer running Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I loaded my music library into it, it compiled the list and separated them by album. But even though I'd assigned most of the albums artwork through my Zune management software (a Microsoft product), almost none of them populated into iTunes. So I went through and started asking the software to try to find album artwork where possible.
I did this a few times album by album, then I decided to select multiple albums and see what happened. No problems. Then I selected all of the albums I had--about 600 in all--and asked it to get artwork. It seemed to process for a bit, then came back with the error, "Artwork for [album name] could not be located. You do not have permission to access the requested resource." I tried this on several individual albums, only to receive that same error.
The very first time I did it, I was told I needed an account with the iTunes store to make it work, so I signed in using an old Apple ID (the account had been inactive for so long it had been locked for security, I unlocked it and that seemed to be that). Then I did what I described above.
The weird thing--to me--is that I can still add artwork to the albums manually if I want to, from imagery stored locally on my own computer. The only thing it seems to have a problem with is when I ask it to go find artwork from the iTunes store.
Do I need to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it? Did something go wrong with the process of authorizing the computer to work with the iTunes store? Do I need to de-authorize and then re-authorize the computer? Could this be something related to Windows permissions on the iTunes library?

Right on about how to reset the warnings, it was exactly that.
I went through the steps to let iTunes through Windows Firewall, but still get the same problem when I access the iTunes store (and even though I followed the steps in the help file to the letter, I notice it still says iTunes is NOT enabled for it). And now, thanks to the re-enabled warnings, when I try to get it to download artwork for single albums, this is what I get:
"Artwork for [album name] could not be found. An unknown error occurred (-50)."

ITunes 9.2 stops adding multiple artwork in multiple selection mode. Help?

Hi everybody,
Since 2003 I've been using iTunes and adding multiple artwork in several tracks at once.
Lets say: I added 10 tracks of a CD to iTunes library, then selected all of them and then right click to choose "Get Info > Multiple Item Information". Then I just dragged and dropped as many artwork pieces as I wanted onto the artwork window, one by one. Clicked OK and voilá.
Now it will only accept one artwork. Following the procedure I used to do, now it will only take the last artwork I place onto the artwork window.
Now the only way to get multiple artwork in a CD is adding all the artwork (lets say the 20 pages of the booklet) one by one in "each track" separately!, which is a pain in the neck.
So now I have to add artwork one by one to each track one at a time.
Is there a NEW way to add multiple artwork on multiple tracks at once in iTunes 9.2?
Screen shot: http://grab.by/51UT
Thank you for your help.

Hi- you might've already figured this out on your own, but:
A) add the first artwork picture (what you want for your cover artwork) using "Get Info > Multiple Item Information" - and close the Multiple Item Information window
B) with the multiple tracks still selected, drag your additional artwork picture items into the artwork panel in the lower left corner of the iTunes window (this is the artwork panel titled "selected item").
C) your additional artwork will be added to all of the selected items. You can click through the artworks using the left/right arrows above the artwork panel.
Obviously you can also use this same method to add that same additional artwork to any other tracks, from other albums, etc. simply by selecting them as well.
Side note, the easiest way to select all tracks from a single album: select the starting track, then use ctrl-shift and select the ending track- all tracks between those two will be selected.
Aaaaaand you're done! Hope this helps!

Any idea where artwork for albums is stored, please?

Hi,
Does anyone know where the latest version of iTunes stores artwork for albums.
I am running it under 64bit Windows 7.
I know I a bit thick today but that's because I have been working all night. I just can't see where the artwork is being stored.

The Album Artwork folder should be inside your iTunes library folder. It breaks down into Cache (cache of embedded images), iCloud Purchases (images for purchases not on your computer) and Download (store art that hasn't been embedded). The next level identifies the library (you can store multiple parallel .itl files in the iTunes folder, but I wouldn't). Below that is a hash table structure of nested folders. The art itself is stored in iTunes' custom .itc2 files.
What is the problem you are trying to resolve?

How do you add artwork in itunes 11.0.4.4?It was easy on previous versions by either drop and drag or right clicking the song and pasting the artwork in the box...Is there an easy solution?

I recentlydownloaded Itunes version 11.0.4.4 and am having difficulty adding artwork to any new folders of music i add to my ipod classic.In prior versions you could either drop and drag or right click on the song,go to "get info" and paste and image into the artwork tab.Can't do either of these now.How do you add artwork in the latest version of Itunes?Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem and i came up with a very simple solution that worked for me.
Step 1 Look for the folder where your mp3 is stored. (example My Music Folder)
Step 2 Right Click on the music file and select properties
Step 3 On the General tab UNCHECK read only and click OK or Apply
Step 4 Go to itunes and rightclick the music title
Step 5 Select Get info and paste or drag your Album artwork at the Artwork Tab.
Hope this helped.

Script to paste multiple text to respective x,y coordinate

i need to formulate a script indesign, where upon pasting multiple texts or textframes, they will be pasted at their respective coordinates x and y with reference to margin or the zero point, I have read the indesign javascript reference, but i could not implement or make this one. A few codes on how this can be done will be appreciated thanks. Additional information, i am copying the text from pdf source. I am currently using adobe indesign cs3. thanks again

I think is too much overhead to put 500 labels on the screen, and more if you have to put them in determinated coordenates, having IMHO the same or more memory use. I recommend you to use cursors, even with 500 labels (is that a cinemascope screen?).

Moving Multiple photos within albums in the Organizer...

How do I select and move multiple files between albums in the Organizer? Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 on an imac with Lion. (New to Mac - previous PC user for years!)

You can select the images you want to move and drag drop the other album name on them.
As of removing the album association with the older album, simply right click the selected set of files >> Remove from Album >> (album name)
Thanks

I have blurry artwork in Album View thumbnails. Deleting the cache makes all the artwork sharp, but once iTunes is restarted, the artwork goes back to being fuzzy unless i delete cache again.

I have blurry artwork in Album View thumbnails, but not in Grid View/Cover Flow. Deleting the cache and forcing it to rebuild makes all the artwork sharp, but once iTunes is restarted, the artwork goes back to being fuzzy unless i delete cache again.

Responding to your request here.
I can't say it's a problem I've noticed personally, though now you've made me look it does seem that the large thumbnail is slightly fuzzier than the same image in the artwork panel. I have the artwork panel as small as it goes (small screen) and it is still slightly larger than the image in the browser so that might be all there is to it.
Here's an example from my screen.
Perhaps iTunes is storing a thumbnail at say "medium" size which it then blows up to create the large image. Are you seeing a similar effect or is your "fuzzy" art much fuzzier? A screenshot would be helpful.

Copy and paste photo to another album.hope apple will do something about this

Copying and paste photo to different album is such a long process you need to sync your photos from your computer to
Teh ipad.i have a samsung phone that runs with android and it much easier to do this kind of things.i love my ipad 2 but i hope apple will do something about
Issue on the photo albums. On the advertisment of ios 5 they are saying we are making this easier but yet powerful.

Under ios 5 you can easily copy photos from any existing slbum to a new album.. You just cannot ( or at least i cannot) put them into an existing album.

Pasting multiple objects into frame

Greetings everyone
I was wondering if someone could shed some light on how to best paste multiple objects into a single frame.
Mainly, I'm trying to nest objects that form a part of a newspaper article header; since it's a design element that keeps repeating with each single article I don't want to spend time with manually positioning the elements each time--it's time consuming and prone to sloppiness.
Unfortunately, the base frame will have about three objects that need to be nested within it. Once I paste one object into a frame, the next time I do `Paste into`--the content (previously pasted object in this case) just gets overridden.
I've read that, to paste multiple objects into a single frame, one should group the objects first. Now this works pretty well for getting them into the frame, but leaves me with no options to position them relative to the frame. I can't move or position an object individually and I have no option to ungroup them once they've been pasted.
Here's a small mock-up to depict my peculiar predicament:
Ideally, I'm aiming to have the main header frame to fit the content of the nested objects and for it to be flexible enough that I can quickly span it across multiple columns as per article requirements.

!kRON wrote:
For items that are part of the group, their (X,Y) location coordinates are relative to the document--neither to the group nor the parent frame. The group itself has coordinates that are relative to the parent frame (X+ offset, Y+ offset). I can select the group and the parent frame and use the align to selection options. For individual items, I cannot make a selection of both them and the frame, only between items that are part of a group. I loose options to align an individual item relative to the parent frame, which means I have to drag them around and rely on smart guides.
I've tinkered around some more and it'd appear it's not possible to lay out the elements as I imagined. So I have to resort to grouping the items that would form a frame and pasting them into a frame. If multiple frames have to be members of a single frame I'd have to group the frames and paste them into the single frame and so on.
Based on my layout mock-up, I'd end up with 3 frames within the header frame:
Article header
Heading
Article type
Separator
Article heading
Title
Footer
Author
Shape
Based on experience, should I go with this or stick with the old fashined moving around of loose elements? Will it be a lot of work to maintain resizing and repositioning of the various items and their frames once I start changing the width and height of the header frame or will it save me some time?
I'm not a working designer or production worker, so anything new takes me longer than I think it should, because I don't have a rich reservoir of quick methods at my fingertips.
Your description above interested me, because I've been wrestling with the annoying limitations of manipulating and adding compound objects in anchored frames. For many situations, it's probably simplest to assemble each iteration of a compound object, that introduces a new element, outside the anchored frame, then group the elements and paste the grouped object into the anchored frame.
However, the arrangement of elements in your example made me think that a table might be a workable solution. The answer I arrived at is "Yes, it's a solution, but it takes a while to set up." If it's reusable easily, then it might be worthwhile investing in a few experiments.
I've attached a zipped idml interchange version of the file, and also a PDF.
Here are some notes:
* I created a table with three rows and three columns, no header or footer rows. Three columns because I thought I'd paste a vertical line into an inline anchored frame in the center cell of the top row, for the separator line. Later, I realized that defining the vertical cell rule as paper color would suffice, so I merged the two right cells on the top row to create a two-column row, with text in each cell and the vertical separator between them.
* I merged all three cells on the second row into a single cell.
* I merged the two right cells on the bottom row, but later, when I moved the cell rule to position the triangular graphic in the inline anchored frame in the right cell, it moved the vertical cell rule in the first row. So, I had to unmerge (or split) the cells, and cut/paste the triangular graphic's anchored frame into the rightmost cell. To position the anchored frame, I moved the vertical cell rule with Shift+Drag, to keep the table width unchanged.
* I sampled the purple color with the eyedropper tool while cells were selected and the swatch panel was set to fill the selected object.
* I didn't spend much time matching the type, as you can see. To position the text, I adjusted the cell margins in some cases, and left/right indention in some cases; I'm not sure which is more efficient in situations where there will be different amounts of text to fit. I didn't create cell styles or paragraph styles (BAH! Bad, bad, bad process) because I won't be repeating this stuff, but you probably will benefit greatly from defining styles for your repeating needs.
* The triangular cut into the bottom row made it easy to manage creating and positioning the graphic. A non-geometrical object might be trickier. The triangle is a text frame, set to negative space above, so it overlaps the cell above it, enough to avoid a black gap.
* Except for the vertical paper-colored divider line, all the cells have zero-width strokes.
* I created the table in a text frame, that I fitted down to the size of the table, but I can't remember if I selected, copied, and pasted the text frame into the text flow to anchor it, or if I selected the table in the text frame, copied and pasted it into the flow. Not sure if it makes a difference in work efficiency.
If I understand your general needs, this should work well for changing text and adjusting the column widths.

Copy/paste multiple slides??

How can I copy/paste multiple slides, from one presentation to another with keynote(on IPAD)?

Two ways:
Touch and hold the first slide, then, with your finger still on the first slide, tap each consecutive slide to add them to the selection. Cut and paste as above.
Starting with the SECOND slide in the series you want to copy, drag each slide to the right so that it indents under the first one (this is all done in the slide sorter column, on the left of the screen). Tap the triangle to the left of the first slide -- the slides will all collapse into one group. Now tap the slide that is showing and you will have selected the entire group. Copy the group, switch to the other presentation, and paste the whole group into the new presentation (touching and holding a slide in the slide sorter column opens the cut and paste menu)

Copy & paste multiple key frames?

Is there a way to copy and paste multiple key frames?
Thanks.

Drawing a marque around multiple keyframes is easy, too. You can select a property and all of its keyframes will be selected. You can performa sophisticated choices of non-continguous keyframes with command-select. You can also do lots of editing in the graph view.
