Problem with artwork

I Have a full cd on itunes and for some reason one song will not take the cd artwork, all of the other ones will but this one wont, can anyone help me please?

That drove me nuts too!! find a track that holds the artwork you want and highlight it. Right click on it and choose "Get info" in the dialogue box choose the artwork tab, and right click on the album image; copy. Now, close the dialogue box, highlight all the tracks for that album, right click, choose "get info". It may ask you if you want to choose option for multiple tracks, or something of the like. Say yes. In the new dialogue box there is a window on the right side that says "artwork" Paste the copied image in it. WHALA!

  • Problem with artwork in iTunes 7

    Since i got iTunes 7 a strange error started in my ipod video 60gb(fully updated):
    First, the ipod was not showing any artwork. Then i tried to uncheck the "display artwork" field, and press apply. Then check the field againd, and press apply again. It started to optimize my artwork, but by the middle of the process, this error happened: "The ipod "Flavio" cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred
    (-50).". I started searching in the internet what could this error be, and found that it is a communication problem, or something like that, but could be caused by bad (corrupted maybe) pictures, photos or artwork. I erased them all (even all the artwork) and tried the uncheck-check process again, and the same error happened. I read that it could be lack of space in my computer, but right now there are 6.6gb of free space in my c: (is it enough?) and the error still happens.
    Today i plugged my ipod on a computer with iTunes 6, tried the uncheck-check process again, and surprise, it worked! Unplugged the ipod, tried playing the only song with artwork remaining, and it worked too! So i came back home and tried again with itunes 7, but the error happened again, tried the song and the artwork wasn't showing again... Ok, so i tried with a laptop, itunes 6, and it worked perfectly again, then i thought "The problem can be happening just on my computer". Updated the laptop itunes, tried unchecking-checking again, and it seemed to work, no errors, but when i played the song on ipod, the artwork was gone again! Just like when the error happened... Tried again, no errors, no artwork, tried back on my computer, error, no artwork.
    2 itunes 6 -> worked, 2 itunes 7 -> problems. The only possible conclusion is that there is a bug in this new itunes, or a new way of dealing with artwork (by itunes, not by the users). Am i right? Or can anyone help me?
    I was thinking about restoring, but as i am adding everything by hand, nothing automatic, it could take a lot of time to choose everything again, and to make all the playlists again... And after seeing that this could be a bug, and could happen again, i decided to post everything here before restoring, to see if there is a better solution.
    Thank you for helping! (or at least for reading this huge post, and sorry for my bad english...)

    there is some problem with i tunes 7(the7.0.1 patch also) in that any artwork found by i tunes is visible whilst viewing tracks in your library if you transfer said tracks to your ipod then the artwork is not transferred,also it you use album artwork as your screensaver then artwork found by i tunes is not used. i can only think that something is not beeing written to the id tags of the tracks. any artwork found by yourself and dragged into the relevant box on the track or album information screen(called up by apple+i)is seen on itunes and by the screensaver. i have spoken to apple support and they assured me that they would get back to me as they had to investigate.that was a month ago. if the problem really bugs you then you can drag artwork found by itunes onto your desktop and then back into the tracks id screen. this remedys the problem but is tedious to say the least. hope this helps

  • Having problem with "artwork size & resolution exceeds the max that can be rasterized"

    Hi all,
    Ok, I created a 162.7" x 90.6" document (artboard) for an exhibition display I'm designing. The document was created using all the defaults - i think this is where i went wrong. Illustrator is now telling me that "the combination of artwork size and resolution exceeds the maximum that can be rasterized" after i open the document and when i try to add a drop shadow to anything.
    Other than some vector graphics i created in illustrator, I only have 3 180ppi and 4 300ppi photos tranfered right off the photograpers camera.
    I selected :
    1. "Print Document" from the initial splash window.
    2. I entered the artboard size, bleed and left the "Raster Effects" setting to "High (300ppi)"
    I think leaving the Raster Effects setting at 300ppi is where the problem is.
    Do i have to create a new document or can i fix the existing one?

    nados you are a little confused that's all I think things are ll right and you are probably set to go with out going to Photoshop.
    1. Your file is probably fine as is
    2. Make certain you images are linked and not embedded
    3. Your Images are probably ok as far as they are for the the specs required do not lower the resolution just make certain they are linked.
    You may have to reimport them and in the place dialog make certain link is checked.
    4. The Raster Image Effects setting is fine leave it as is.
    5. The jpegs are fine lee your images as is if that was what was supplied to you and they look clean.
    6. When saving the file save as .AI format and in the AI save as option dialog uncheck include linked files
    (you will send them the jpegs as well as the AI file.)
    7. Send the images in what ever format they are now since that is jpeg leave it be just make certain the dimensions are the same as is being used in the document at 100%.
    8 Make Certain you select the text and got Type> Create Outlines before saving the file.
    9 Do not export the file to any other format.
    10 Send the printer production house the AI file and the Jpegs you will be fine.
    You should not have a problem with this file.

  • Library Shared Between Two Users- Problems with Artwork

    My iTunes library is located in the Shared folder so that I can reach it from two different log-ins, and both have (or should have) the same access privileges, but for some reason I can only change the artwork when I'm logged into one of the accounts. When I log into the other account, the artwork options are grayed out. Any advice on how to fix this problem?

    The problem with that method is you are sharing the same set of media files, but you each have your own iTunes databases, so you get that issue where songs added in one account do not show up automatically in the other. Likewise, one account can delete stuff and the other account won't know.
    If you don't have a need to have both accounts accessing the iTunes library at the same time (meaning if you use fast switching, then each user would have to remember to close iTunes first), you can relocated the ENTIRE iTunes folder to the shared folder (not just the iTunes Music folder). Then use these instructions to open the library from that location...
    How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304447
    If both accounts use the above to point to the same library, you will both be using the exact same database files so what is done in one account is automatically there for the other account to see. However the downside is since both account use the same database files, you can not have both accounts running iTunes at the same time since both will be trying to access and write to the same file at the same time (bad thing). In addition, this also doesn't allow you to have different sets of playlists, playcounts, ratings, etc. Same database, so you would both have to see the same set of info including those.
    If you rather stick to the old method of the same media files but separate database files, then you will have to continue to manually add stuff to the other account after importing from the first account to the media folder.

  • Problems with artwork

    I started to organize my music and add missing artworks. But it doesn't work very well... I fixed about 5 albums, it was working, but with one album it wasn't.
    I selected all songs from album, Get info, add artwork, OK, but nothing has changed. I tried another image, I tried restart itunes, restart mac, remove album from itunes library and add it back but nothing changed.
    Another problem: if I change (also in this album) the "Artist" and confirm it, it is changed. But when I "get info" again, artist will change immediately back.
    Where is the problem? Could be the files "locked" or something like this? How could I change the artwork? I use iTunes 10.0.1

    I am having the same problem with some (not all) of my music files.
    Sometimes when I edit the tag info like Name or Artist, and then click OK... the track information reverts back without the changes.
    Also, I have problems when trying to add artwork. I will select the JPG file I wish to save as artwork, and then click OK to close the Info window. But the artwork does not save. When I open the track's information the artwork remains blank. This does not happen all of the time, maybe 25% of the time. But it seems to be completely random.

  • Problems with artwork and now more

    For background, I use Vista
    I've owned my iPod Touch (2g) since June(?), and I didn't have any trouble with it until about a month ago, when the artwork on my iPod started getting mixed up. For example, the genius mix covers started showing up on single artist's albums. This got a little annoying, when it started showing showtunes mix albums for Neutral Milk Hotel and the like. I tried wiping the artwork for the songs that it was messed up on and reloading it, but it didn't work. Then it did it for my music videos (all of them), as well as it stopped syncing my television shows. Finally, instead of just mixing up the artwork, the album covers would start to mix together so they would be half and half and look like they had crashed together.
    So finally, I did a restore (because I didn't know what else to do). It didn't work, and the artwork was still messed up. Now, in addition to having messed up artwork, sometimes songs will skip halfway through to the next song, and genius is messed up (for example, it will give me all of one album, only give me 13 songs or give me a mix of Regina Spektor and Mindless Self Indulgence).
    I haven't had any problems with my iPod other than this, and the artwork is fine on iTunes. I don't think it's anything outside (i.e I haven't been dropping my iPod, I have a case, I didn't spill any liquids on it). I don't know what to do. Also, since the restore, it won't reload any of my purchased applications, music videos, or television shows. Can someone tell me how to get these back on?

    I have an iPod touch, bought in 2008. My artwork, too, gets jumbled. At first, I noticed incorrect artwork downloaded from iTunes. I could replace that. But now, incorrect artwork will show up with individual songs (though the album artwork will be correct, both in iTunes and on the touch). Even clearing all the artwork on the album and replacing it does not work -- I have also tried deleting the artwork that showed up in error, but that did not solve the problem.
    Not, obviously, an operational issue, but hugely annoying. Is there any fix out there for this?

  • Problems with artwork displaying in iTunes but not on iPod screen

    I have iTunes (7.6) and a 5th gen, 80GB, firmware 1.2.3 iPod.
    Not infrequently, I find that a song's artwork is visible in iTunes, but not on the iPod itself. Sometimes the artwork is displayed simply as a black rectangle on the iPod.
    The converse situation also sometimes happens - when album info is retrieved from the CDDB, sometimes album artwork is also retrieved - but this is not displayed in the iTunes software, only on the iPod.
    And yes, the "Display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox is selected in iTunes.
    Does anyone have any more info about this?
    Are there any restrictions on image file formats? Maximum size? Type? Interlaced or not?
    Last time I asked this question I got zero response
    It is an irritating problem, cos there's no way to check what the artwork looks like on the iPod without disconnecting it from my PC :/

    OK to drag this thread back on topic:
    I think the "sync" thing is irrelevant anyways.
    What I tried in the end was viewing my iPod in iTunes,
    navigating through to the check box for "display album artwork",
    UNcheck it, and click apply.
    At this point, iTunes said, with NO confirmation "Are you sure?" dialog, "DELETING ARTWORK ON iPOD" !! :-O I was not pleased
    However I then re-selected the "display album artwork" box and clicked Apply. The process took about 10 minutes to complete.
    When I then disconnected the iPod, the black squares were gone, and the artwork was NOT deleted (phew!) and was displaying correctly. I was pleased
    The amount of "other" megabytes on the display in iTunes for my iPod's contents had shrunk.
    I dunno what all this actually did - are the artwork files embedded in the MP4 files on the iPod? Or are they stored seperately and linked to them?
    I'm wondering if the "black square" thing is caused by an MP4 having an embedded image, and there also being a conflicting image file elsewhere on the hard drive? But this is just guessing.

  • New Problem with Artwork in iTunes 10

    Now with iTunes 10 I can put various .Jpgs in but iTunes will show them in the iTunes artwork window but will only display the first one!

    Nope! It keeps several but SOMETIMES displays only one.For example running iTunes 10 on my G5 I imported a few albums from my CDs.I searched for Artwork on Google and found 2 .jpgs One gpr the cover and one for the back cover. On my G5 it only displayed one! On my G4 12" Powerbook also running iTunes 10 I instaaled the same CD using the SAME artwork.It displayed BOTH the front cover as well as the back cover.On the G5 the artwork window in list view shows the arrow but only displays the front cover however in the window it shows both covers.

  • Ipod photo: problem with artwork

    It seems that on Itunes, my artowrk is all correct, but on my ipod, the imgaes are jumbled up for some of the albums. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks.

    The iPod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured (-50).

  • Problems with artwork in coverflow.

    First I already read the article in the FAQ section, and it still didn't help me. I have multiple artworks for the same albums. If its a single disc CD I'll have two artworks, one for the first song, and one for all the rest. This is the main problem. Another one I have is If I have a 2 disc (or more) CD, I would prefer to have them have the same album artwork yet still label them as for example the beatles last year disc 1 and disc 2. Is that possible?

    For the single disc CD choose the song which has the artwork that you want, right click on it and choose Get Info, go to the artwork tab and right click on the album art and click Copy. Now exit, select all songs on the album, right click and go to Get Info again and simply tick the box next to artwork and Paste it to apply it to every song.
    For the multiple disc problem the same method should apply, as long as they are labelled disc 1, disc 2, etc

  • Problems with iPod touch 5G - Artwork and TV shows don't show up

    I've been having some problems with my recently acquired iPod touch 5G. When I change album art on iTunes for music or videos it either won't change the art on my iPod or no artwork will show up at all (just the default grey music note or TV).
    When I change the Sort field to make my iPod sort albums chronologically instead of alphabetically, it will work until I've plugged my iPod into the computer a few times and then it will go back to sorting alphabetically (even though in the Get Info on iTunes it still says it's sorted by year).
    Lastly, when I change a downloaded video from a Movie to a TV Show it will rarely show up in TV Shows on my iPod, the file can't even be found by searching. 
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • I recently upgraded from an 80 to 160GB Classic but only some of the artwork in iTunes is synching. There was no problem with the old 80Gb classic. any suggestions?

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

  • Itunes Artwork Problems with Lion

    I've noticed some problems lately with Lion and artwork from Mp3 files no longer being seen in the Finder.  Im a new Mac user (only a few weeks) and had lots of issues with itunes from the data transfer but finally was able to get everything working (after 8 hours in the retail store)
    Anyway when Lion was installed, there were some hiccups apparently in the 10.4 itunes download.
    Now, since it has downloaded there seems to be a new problem with certain files' artwork no longer being recognized in the Finder.  (I'm not even sure if that matters - the artwork is showing up in itunes and ipod but not in the finder).  This is especially affecting new downloaded tracks (not from itunes)..I can add artwork but it will not appear in the Finder...and it also is affecting some older files and folders that did not have any problems.  For certain artists with multiple albums, the artwork keeps disappearing...if you are able to add it for one album, it disappears for the second album...if you fix it for the second album, it disappears again  for the first.  So just wondering if anybody else is having these issues...or has any ideas to fix it.  Id really like to have the artwork in the finder; it just makes me feel more comfortable after all the problems I've had.  And so far everytime someone at Applecare or Retail Store tells me to do stuff on my computer, it has just screwed things up even more.

    I'm having the same issues
    At first I thought it was the 3rd party app 'Media Rage' not being compatible with Lion.  But this is not the case.
    I know this because, I edited the artwork in iTunes; the artwork shows fine.  But, when I take that same iTunes file and drag it to my desktop; nothing.  Artwork disappears.  I've taken the same file, (now on my desktop), move it into Media Rage, and the window shows that the image file is embedded in the .mp3.
    Then, I take the file and move it into iTunes, (now 2 copies of the same song), and the artwork shows again.
    So, there's definately something wrong in Finder.
    Also, this only happens with new .mp3's recently downloaded, (post Lion upgrade).  All my media files pre-Lion, show the artwork in finder ...... 10's of thousands of files are fine.  The only problems are with those post-Lion.
    Lastly, to be sure that there wasn't some Media Rage/Lion compatibility issue, I uninstalled media rage, and edited some 'new' .mp3's soley using iTunes.   They are fine while viewed in iTunes.  But in finder; nothing.
    I can't imagine Apple overlooking something like this .... after finishing with checking the core processes of the OS, it seems as though the very next items to check and verify would be media, (both audio and video).

  • Problem with adding artwork manually in itunes

    I'm having trouble manually adding artwork to several albums in itunes 10.7 on macbook pro (the 'get album artwork' facility won't pick these discs up presumably because they're too obscure).
    I go to 'get info', select the relevant check box, then add a  non-read only, apparently normal jpg to the artwork box. This image then displays successfully in the artwork box, I press ok, but when I return to the albums list it won't display at all. This has been consistent problem that I haven't only experienced in this version of itunes and it's very irritating having just a few blank albums that refuse to change.
    Any ideas what might be causing this. Or is there a workaround or an alternative method I can use to add artwork?

    Thanks both for the responses.
    Limnos - I can't find an equivalent 'show artwork' function in the view menu in my version of itunes, and I'd rather not have step back to an older version of itunes if I can avoid it.
    BUT having thought about it I think the root of the problem must be that they are all albums with .flac files that have been imported into itunes using the 'Fluke' software. I suspect this might be what's causing the problem - and I'm wondering whether that means the problems with Fluke itself. It's annoying that there isn't a quality music player on mac that handles .flac and I have to use these crappy converters.
    If anyone has an idea about how to solve this please pitch in, but I suspect this goes beyond the remit of these forums.
    och well.
