Problem with ipod album art

hello. I am new to this forum, but i have a quick question that hopefully, someone might be able to answer
i am currently running the color display ipod (not video.) my problem is that when i put music on to it from itunes, the songs with album art cannot be read by the pod. i did not know this when i added all the art, or else i would have avoided doing so.
i was wondering if it is possible to delete the art so i can transfer the songs to the ipod. it seems simple enough, but my attempts were futile.
anyone know how to remove the art from the itunes files?

yeah.
you right click-get info-artwork and then click on the picture you want to delete as the delete button will be greyed out until you click on the artwork. When you click on the artwork the button then becomes functional.
good luck

    Problems with ipod connection.
    I have problems to connect my ipod to computer windows 7.
    When I connect I get the following error:
    "We encountered an ipod, but could not be identified correctly. Disconnect and reconnect the ipod and try again."
    And it recognizes the ipod when trying to go play music or videos make me the following error:
    "Error while trying to copy on disk. The device is not connected."
    I've uninstalled all apple applications and re-installing, as I formatted the ipod and continues to set the same error.
    What else can I do?

  • Problems with Ipod Touch

    Problems with iPod Touch.
    Hi, I bought an ipod touch in Colombia a couple of months ago but lost the invoice, I tried using it but everytime I connect the iPod to the computer, it restarts over and over again, I've tried all the recommendations show in the Apple support site, but no method has proved the question is, I can take this ipod to a Mac store in the U.S. for repair or change.
    I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it.
    Thanks in advance for your quick response

    You should be able to go to the USA for warrantee service. If you purchased at an Apple store you should be able to go to your account in iTunes and see the purchase. I am confused by your statement:
    "I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it."
    If you go to the Venezuela apple website you can see if/where there are Apple stores.

  • Problems with shared albums

    I had problem with some albums shared from other person: I did see the name of the album, but I didn't see photos.
    So I decided to turn off and on the option "Condivisione foto" intending to reset the sharing system, but I lost all shared albums except "Streaming photo"
    What can I do to see again my shared albums (some shared by me and some shared by others)?

    According to the hover over on the double arrow it indicates "Backup/Synchronization Pending".  I rebooted the machine and the photoshop startup screen got stuck on the logging in photoshop.com.  I launched Elements organizer and went to preferences and reset my userid and password (they haven't changed I just re-typed them).  It then logged in and the sync started to work.  So it was apparently not logged into photoshop.com?  It would be better if it told me that it was having problems accessing photoshop.com or something like that.

  • Very Strange and nasty iTunes (not iPod) Album Art Problem

    Hi,
    I have the latest version of iTunes for Windows and I have never noticed this before on a previous version, but when I try to add album art to most (over 90%) of songs, the addition won't stay if I select another song.
    Even worse, if I try to add art while the song is playing, not only will the addition dissappear, the song corrupts in the process. It's as if the jpeg file is inserted into the audio data itself, as the song will grow by a number of seconds (the growth consists of skips and repeats.)
    I'm using iTunes with Windows Media Center. I have iTunes maintain my music folder, while Media Player / MCE monitors nothing. I also have a Media Center Extender setup (an Xbox360) that accesses my music as well (through the media player / MCE database.)
    None of my music files are tagged as read-only. I have a suspicion that the cause of the problem may be along similar lines (file permissions, access, etc.) but nothing I've
    tried works (including resetting all file permissions.)
    In addition, none of the iTunes Art Importers work. In using the most popular one (iTunes Art Importer,) the program crashes to a .NET/CLR debugger when I try to import art. Looking at the stack trace, it appears as if the error concerns DLL access.
    Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated, as this is a pretty horrible bug (as it has ruined several songs.)
    Thanks,

    Use the SHIFT-Launch iTunes method to get iTunes waiting for a library. Stick the iPod in disk mode and connect to the computer. Browse *My Computer* and right-click on the drive for the iPod, click Properties, then click Tools. Under Error-checking, click *Check Now*. Under Check disk options, select *Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors* (Optional - takes ages but a good idea if you've reason to suspect physical damage). Click Start. Mac users should run *Disk Utility / Repair Disk* for the equivalent process. This should find and correct any errors in the logical & physical structures of your iPod's hard drive which may be causing the problem. When the process is complete disconnect the iPod and then reset it (hold Menu+Select ). Cancel the waiting iTunes dialog and then try to connect in the normal way.
    If that still doesn't work you could try Erase your iPod - The Super Fix for most iPod Problems. Basically a low level format of the iPod’s hard drive to get around whatever problems are stopping iTunes from working with it.
    Have you tried connecting the iPod to another computer to see if the issues is focused on the iPod or iTunes?

  • Still having ipod album art work problems

    My IPOD SHOWS NO ALBUM ARTWORK! I don't know why. I have the checkbox under itunes selected "display album artwork on IPOD" I contacted itunes support and they never help with anything. they are completely worthless. They directed me back here, to the forums, for help. They have no answers. I've tried nearly everthing. I've restored my ipod many times over. I've also tried deselecting that checkbox under itunes then resyncing my ipod. And its still a no go. I think that I'm missing some files on my ipod that enables my ipod to show the album artwork. Can anyone help me out?

    I had the same problem all you have to do is connect your ipod then click the options for your ipod then un tick the show album art then update your ipod, disconnect it then re connect it and click the options again then tick the album artwork box unpdate again and viola everything works smooth from then on mine has been perfect since i did it last week

  • 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

  • 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.

  • ITunes / iPod Album art wierdness

    I just got an iPod nano so I wanted to try and get the album art to display on the iPod when playing the songs. I transferred a whole bunch of my to the iPod before I realized who how do this.
    So, I would select the iPod (not iTunes) library, select the album, go to a site with album art work, drag the art work to the art work section, it would update, then move on to the next. I did this for every album on the iPod. After that I did the same thing, except to the music in my iTunes library.
    When I plug in my iPod and select an album, the album art shows up no problem in the iTunes interface..
    When I use my iPod, only the albums where I added the alb um art to iTunes show up.
    I do not have auto sync, or auto fill, or any of that stuff enabled.
    What I'm wondering, can you not attach artwork to files already on the iPod, and if so, do I have to delete all the audio on my iPod, update all the album art in iTunes and transfer again? If so that's 1. a bummer and 2. very un-Apple.
    Let me know if you've seen this before or can help.
    Thanks,
    Adam

    If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
    iTunes 6
    1. Connect your iPod
    2. Disable "Show Album art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
    3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes. (Disconnecting and then reconnecting your iPod will do the trick)
    4. Re-enable "Show Album Art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
    5. Syncronise the iPod again.
    iTunes 7

  • Displaying ipod album art in itunes

    I have a question about the iPod's display of album art in iTunes when it is plugged into my computer. I had been getting really frustrated for the better part of the evening after adding a bunch of album art to my music, updating it on the iPod (I do manual update so I dragged the songs onto the iPod after adding the art), and then clicking on them in the iPod's library in iTunes only to see that there was no album art there. What gives?
    However, I realized that I was getting annoyed for no reason when I checked it out in the iPod itself, after I disconnected it. All of the album art is there.
    So here is the strange behavior I have observed this evening: if I had to go out on the internet and find cover art myself, and add it manually to the files in iTunes, it displays in the iPod's library in iTunes. If iTunes helpfully went out and found the cover art for me automatically, it does NOT display in the iPod library in iTunes (although it is actually there when you go to play the music on the disconnected iPod). I went through the iPod's library in iTunes and this is consistently what is happening.
    Obviously this isn't a life-or-death kind of situation, but I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this behavior or knows why this happening. For what it's worth, my entire iTunes library is on an external hard drive, and all of my music is on there in the same place. Do you think iTunes is storing the art in separate places depending on whether I added it or it found it on its own? Would this even matter? I am very curious about this. Thanks for any insight anyone has for me.
    5g iPod (video) 80 GB   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   iTunes 7

    when i play the music on the iPod the albums show up
    no problem... but when the iPod is connected to
    iTunes, and i'm browsing my ipod via itunes, only
    some album art shows up...
    IE: beck guero, has album art in the itunes library,
    it also has the art on the ipod if i play it with the
    ipod disconnected from my mac. it DOES NOT show album
    art when connected to itunes and view the ipod within
    itunes...
    whats the deal? some albums are just fine, but the
    vast majority of them dont display the art while in
    itunes... again, if i disconnect the ipod and view
    them on the ipod, there is no problem all albums
    display.
    any help is appreciated.
    Just so you know, you're not going crazy and you're not the only one that's seeing this. I'm seeing the same behavior with a 30GB 5G iPod and iTunes7 under Windows XP.

  • My iPod album art doesn't work anymore

    Ever since I updated to the latest iPod software (about 2 months ago), every new album I have put into my iPod has scratchy album art (looks scrambeled, and blue). My old album art however (for songs put in before the update), still looks good, and any other uploaded photo looks fine. Anyone know the problem?
    oh, and it's a 60GB Black iPod Video.

    i had a similar problem, with the ipod pluged in got to ipod prefrences and un-check the show album art box and then check it agian it worked for mine. hope it will work for you as well.

  • IPod Album Art Mixup, Choppyness, Doesn't Sleep

    I have a few questions about my new iPod 5.5G 80GB I was hoping to have cleared up. Some of these may simply be me doing something wrong on the iPod.
    1/ When I'm scrolling through some podcasts on my iPod, as well as some music, I'll see the album art of another song, podcast, or video in it's album art part. As an example, I went to play CNET's Buzz out Loud and got the album art for Pirates of the Caribbean instead of the Buzz Out Loud logo. Is this a bug or something I'm doing wrong? How can I fix it?
    2/ I've noticed that menu scrolling and some game play (Brick, specifically) is really choppy. Almost every five or ten seconds when playing Brick and having music playing in the background, the ball will freeze in mid air for a split second. It does this when I'm scrolling through my songs too... on my iPod 2g mini silver 4gb, I never had problems with this. It may be because of my amount of music, I'm not sure. It just won't go through all of the songs instantly. I have to wait a second for it to get to the next screen of songs, almost like it's having to think real hard to load a single bit of text.
    3/ The last thing I'm having troubles with is that it won't sleep when I hold down the play button. Sometimes, it will, and sometimes it won't. Most of the time, it won't. I then have to do a hard restart to get it to sleep, because even selecting it in the menu won't put it to sleep.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Other than those three issues, I'm absolutely loving my iPod. It's a huge step up from my iPod mini!

    I have the same problem. I just bought a 80GB Video ipod a couple of weeks ago. I have the newest version of itunes. I spent hours getting all the artwork on the itunes, synched my ipod and it all worked fine and then all of a sudden after my last synch (yesterday and after the last update) the artwork is all messed up. It displays the wrong artwork for the song and artist I pick. And when I click on the artwork (from my ipod) it shows a different album/artist artwork. This is really frustrating considering I put so much time in to make sure that all the albums had the correct artwork and that they were properly organized. Anybody have any solutions or been having the same problem?
    Deleting the artwork is not an option. It shows up fine in itunes but is all messed up on the ipod and it is almost every file if not every file. So deleting and reinstalling over 7,000 songs would take forever.

  • IPod Album Art Scrambled for Many Songs

    For some odd reason, when I recently connected my iPod to iTunes -- I have the latest software versions for the iPod and iTunes -- I noticed that many of the songs are displaying album art for the wrong albums. For example, all the songs from one of my Aerosmith albums is displaying the artwork for one of my J.S. Bach albums. Not the same thing!
    Has anyone run into a similar problem? Does anyone have a solution?
    Regards,
    Keith
    P.S. For the record, the album art displays correctly in iTunes; it's wrong only on the iPod.

    If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
    1. Connect your iPod
    2. Disable "Display album artwork" in iPod>Music tab and click Apply.
    3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes.
    4. Re-enable "Display album artwork" in iPod>Music tab and click Apply.
    5. Syncronise the iPod again.
