Incorrect album art on iPhone even when I try to manually correct the album art in iTunes.

I recently replaced my iPhone 3GS with a new iPhone 4S. The album art is fine when viewed via my iMac in iTunes, but when I sync an album to my phone, it gives it a random album cover from my library instead of the correct one. I go to iTunes and manually re-upload the album art but when I sync again it's still incorrect. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I think I have the same problem with an iPhone 3GS running 6.0.1 and iTunes 10.7. I didn't have this problem with 6.0.0. My album artwork is fine in iTunes but when I transfer it to my iPhone, I get either the wrong album art or no album art. I've tried deleting the music from the phone and re-adding it. I rebuilt the album art cache. I reformatted all my music as an audiobook and then back to music (don't laugh - this worked for someone!). I loaded Media Monkey to see if there was something wrong with my mp3 files. My mp3 files are fine and if I load my iPhone with Media Monkey, the artwork is fine. I think the problem is that the vast majority of my music is 300 bps or better mp3 files. Even if the artwork is imbedded in the mp3 file, iTunes is doing something wacky with the album art and I can't figure out how to fix it. If it weren't for all my iTunes playlists, I would just use Media Monkey to manage my music on my iPhone.

Can i just take the album art from itunes store w/out buying

???
can i just copy paste?

Hi chaps,
I'm a bit fussing about my album art, like to have all my tunes with their respective covers on my nano!
Anyway, I use a program called iTunes Art Importer, which runs alongside iTunes (although 3rd party, not Apple).
Its dead simple to use, it pulls the art from Amazon. Just highlight your track (or tracks)and click search. I find using the "overide search text" works really well for not so well known music, just keep the search simple.
Anyway, here's the link, it's free, give it a try!

Album Art on iTunes does not show up on iPod

I've put my CD's onto my iPod nano, and I put the Album Art so when I click "Get Info" on iTunes, it shows the Album Art. However, when I play the songs on my iPod, it doesn't show up. What's wrong?

Extract Album art from iTunes?

is it possible to extract and backup the album art in iTunes?
I have a lot that I have had to put in manually and I would like to be able to save it..
Also it looks like some tracks in some albums, for some reason, never had art loaded to the, although the rest of the album is fine. I need to extract the art from one track on theses albums and put it back in the track with missing artwork

Ok, thanks
Finally managed to work out where and how to copy the artwork. Since there was no right click option when selecting artwork in an albums Get Info page, I did not think about using CMD C or CMD V. It wont copy from Album Get Info, but will from the individual tracks
I see you can also copy/paste using the Edit drop down in the menu bar, but for me that is a pain as I have three screens and I had been working with the iTunes Windows in the third screen....the first screen being the primary screen with the menu bar. Bloody stupid having only one menu bar when you have multiple screens.
Thanks for your help
Neil

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

Update embedded Album Art from iTunes Store?

Missing Album Art is automatically added to my iTunes library. Excellent!
But I have a large number of albums/songs with embedded album art of low quality (200x200). Is there a way to update these without having to manually delete the old Album Art for each song individually?
Is there a way to embed the album art from iTunes into the mp3-files instead of storing them externally (in the iTunes Album Art directory?) Probably not........

Is there a way to update these without having to manually delete the old Album Art for each song individually?
Well, you don't have to do it individually -- you can select all the songs for which you want to delete, right-click and select "Get Info", then check the Artwork box, then click OK. This will delete all the artwork for those songs (permanently!)
Is there a way to embed the album art from iTunes into the mp3-files instead of storing them externally (in the iTunes Album Art directory?)
I have a script to do just that. You have to download it first (say, to your Desktop)
http://teridon.googlepages.com/itunesinsertartwork.vbs
Then you have to run it using the Command Prompt:
1) Bring up a command prompt (Start..All Programs..Accessories..Command Prompt)
2) Enter these commands:<pre>cd Desktop
cscript itunesinsertartwork.vbs</pre>
3) Select the playlist (or select the whole Library with "1") which contains the songs for which you want to embed the artwork.
NOTE:Embedding artwork will cause your files to take up more hard drive space because for downloaded artwork iTunes only needs one copy. Embedding the artwork makes a copy of the artwork for every song with that artwork. Artwork files from the iTMS are typically 400-500 KB each.

Keeping the album art

Alright, I've done this once before, but I'm not sure how I did it.
Once, I was downloading the album art for my library, and I guess the download process was stopped, or maybe not. But, I was looking in my temporary internet files, and I noticed that I had over 100 megs of jpgs. These jpgs were the album art jpegs iTunes had downloaded. How do I do this again? It's really cool, and I enjoy having high quality album art jpgs.

Try clicking on the Advanced Tab and then on Get Album Artwork. Does that do it? Sometimes it takes a little bit. I know its worked to find it for my albums.

I have converted most of my windows media files to itunes. However I had to close it down about 3 quarters of the way through. It then processed the album art. How can I convert the files that it didn't finish doing the first time? thanks

Hi there,
hope you can help me. I helped my sister convert her window media files to itunes and set up an account for her. Unfortunately her computer is really slow and it was really late and we had to turn it off. It processed some of the album art for the files that it had converted. However, some songs were not converted and because there was quite a few left, I don't really know which ones did not get converted as I selected all of the folders. How do I find out which ones I have left to convert and put the rest of the songs onto itunes for her please? Or are they on the itunes still as they showed up initially on itunes in the list to be converted.
Thank you!

You could convert them all again and then dedupe, or use a Windows search to reveal all the WMA files and then try to work out which still need to be converted. If you're lucky iTunes would have processed the imports in alphabetical path order so it would just be a matter of working out where it had got up to...

I dont always get my songs from itunes, how can i get the album art?

When I download a song on a place other than iTunes, the album art doesn't show. How can I get it to?

If you don't buy your music from itunes you can go to amazon.com and simply copy the artwork from their and paste it into itunes. Select the appropriate album or track within your itunes, right click and then select 'get info'then paste it into the artwork box on the right hand side!

How can the album-art, which is all in iTunes , suddenly only shows partially on the iPod classic 160 gb?

I'm user of iTunes for years and in possession of 2 iPod classics.
For both iPods I have a specific playlist created, which I sync with iTunes. Each of my nearly 50,000 tracks in iTunes comes with the right Album-art (all 500 x 500 pixels and 72 dpi) andeach track contains also the necessary meta data and is converted to 160 or 192 kbps M4a. In Finder on my MacBook I can see that the M4a files all contain album-art, because the file icons show the album art for each file name! Also in the grid overview of iTunes you can see them all, no exception.
For years that went well. Now, a week ago, I made a new playlist (16,000 tracks) for one of my iPod classics because I wanted a different content! The old playlist I discarded and synchronized the new one. Now it appears that a large number of album-art on the iPod is not shown, nor in cover-flow nor during play-back. I then tried to get my new playlist updated by exported as XML and then imported into iTunes again. In that case all tracks from the list are checked for completeness against the library and after import it should be fine. Unfortunately, it is not the case. Still the album-art is not shown for all tracks/albums on the iPod.
I run iTunes (11.2.2 (3)) on a MacBook Pro at the end of 2009, with the latest OSX version (10.9.3) and with enough disk space and memory.
My iTunes library is on a NAS (Synodisk DS209J II plus) the iPods run on the latest sw version (1.1.2) and are both Apple formatted.
I wonder if this is an iPod error or something wrong with the library. I hope you will understand, that I do not want to lose all the metadata of the 50,000 tracks by rebuilding the library, especially things like: date added, number of times played, rating, comments!
I hope someone can provide me an acceptable solution.
With regards, Sign-X

I'm a bit confused, but I assume you want to shuffle your playlist while you are playing it in iTunes. If this is so, you will actually have to start playing a song before the shuffle button appears, and it appears in the top center panel of your iTunes window. Yeah, I know...

When I preview a song in iTunes, the album art preview shows up blurry

So anytime I preview a song in iTunes store, whenever I click on the small album art icon (at the top) to bring up the smaller player, the album art shows up blurry.
Has been happening for the past three or four iTunes releases. How can I fix it?
When I purchase the song, the album art downloads just fine though. Funny thing is, if I preview a different song from the same album, the album art loads fine. Not sure whats going on.

Make sure that these two options in Edit > Preferences > Store are turned off:
Then exit iTunes and open it up again. Your metadata entries should then be persistent - with these options checked iTunes will be comparing what you have with the information held in the iTunes Store, and will overwrite with the latter for Store purchases (and if you have iTunes Match). If you have any iOS devices you should also turn off Show All Music under Settings > Music.

The control click and external mouse right click no longer works when copying and pasting album art within itunes. Ex. Hit get info for one song to paste to the rest, copying the artwork wont work when it used to.
