Scrambled Album Artwork ! :S Please help!

Ok, so I have ahd my 80Gb, 5th Generation iPod for about 2 weeks now, and for a while it has been scrambling the artwork.
To be more specific, its takes the various artworks from PodCasts, mainly BritPod lol, and puts it on my songs. It seems random, because an albums worth of songs will each have different pics.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Also, when I first installed everything, I was listening to it for a few days fine, then I played a Podcast, and it crashed, when i booted it up all the podcasts wouldnt play, when i pressed play on them it returned me to the main menu. I had to reinstall everything.
I have restored it twice to try and sort this album artwork problem, any suggestions? Much appreciated.
Chris

Excellent thankyou.
For some reason, deleting everything didn't solve it.
So if anyone else has this problem
1. uncheck the 'display album artwork on your ipod' box, and click update, then sync it so it deletes all the artwork
2. Recheck the box, and wait sync it again so it reloads everything onto the ipod
Thanks keaton

Cannot View Album Art.. please help!

Hi. I've been wondering how I can put album art onto my nano... I'm quite confused because I have one song that has the album art beside it when in "Now Playing" but for the rest of the songs... I don't see any album art. Please help me.. it has been bugging me for quite a while now =(

What I mean is that you don't have to do the album art for each song, one by one, in an album.
In itunes, click on the first song in the album. Then hold down the shift key and click on the last song in the album. All the songs inbetween the two you clicked on will be selected.
Then, just drag or paste the artwork into the box on the left and all the selected songs will get the same artwork.

My video ipods album artwork keep switching HELP PLEASE!!!

for certain songs or certain albums the album artwork will be another albums album artwork and i cannot figure out what to do! please help me!

Cant get album artwork! Need help!

So I just bought Senses Fail's new album Life Is Not a Waiting Room and I tried to get the album artwork and it says it could not be found and it's spelt the exact same way as it is on iTunes... Also I just downloaded the new iTunes and I did not have any troubles with any other artwork until I uploaded this cd... So please help me!

For whatever reason, the iTS store database has it listed differently than your tags.
Sometimes just adding a blank space after the Album Name or Artist will make iTunes fetch the artwork.
When Led Zeppelin's Mothership was first released, Apple had it filed under Artist = Lead Zeppelin. It's fixed now, but folks couldn't get the artwork until it was, unless they misspelled their own tags.

Vista Problem - iTunes 7.02 Scrambles Album Artwork

5G iPod Video and Windows Vista...
All seemed OK until I started watching for the album artwork on my iPod. It appears that iTunes has decided to rearrange the artwork for the music. All is still well on my PC - but for now I'll have to put up with strange combinations of art & music.
Just wondering ... is Apple time different than PC time? Their estimate of "the next few weeks" has been posted for - well, the past few weeks. I wonder if they're getting any closer?
Best of luck,

Yes, I have the exact same problem. I copy and paste album artwork from a website and a week later it's disappeared from itunes. I have over 17,000 songs and it's taken me an age to get the artwork in now only for it to disappear on me. Very frustrating. Hopefully someone reading this may be able to help.

ITunes Album Artwork Problem. Help?

I recently installed iTunes onto my new laptop, and the album artwork for all my songs comes out slightly discolored, in that it is a hue of pink. What's even stranger is that the album artwork seen on the bottom left corner shows the artwork in it's right colors. I've tried to calibrate the colors on my screen in my settings, but nothing seems to be working. Oh, and my new laptop is running on Windows 8. Help?
P.S. Don't mind my choice of music, I was helping my little sister put music on her iPhone :3

Here's the Apple article on that
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1815
The important line is "If the data matches, iTunes will download the album artwork".
What it doesn't say is, "if the Apple database is wrong, you'll get the wrong artwork".
Try getting the correct cover for +Led Zeppelin I+ - impossible. They had Mothership listed under Lead Zeppelin for a while.
I agree with the other comment; just get those 40 covers from somewhere else, rather than find out how it is listed in the Apple database.

Can't get all how to get album artwork when all help options didn't work

help - how do I get album artwork when all itunes help options didn't work

Other is usually around 1 GB...
A ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup... But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup... Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

My iTunes Deletes My Album Art! Please Help!

I have two quick questions:
1. Why does iTunes(v6.0.4.2) mysteriously delete the album art i put for some CDs i import a few weeks after i have imported them and place long strings of numbers in the 'comments' column? (this has been driving me crazy!!!) and also...
2. Is it possible to encode mp3s with iTunes without having to import it directly from a CD?
Any help for either of these would be greatly appreciated... thanks in advance!

I think it might have something to do with my id3 tags... but most of my mp3s use id3v2.3 which is the latest version if i remember right... someone help... please?

Album artwork info and help

Hi all,
i have a question, when iTunes find itself album images, everything is ok, i transfer music on iPod and images are correctly displayed. Th e problems is when iTuns can't find it , so i find it by mysel, I select all the songs and from the information window i add the image.
Now i have two questions: why these images added with the second method aren't transfered on iPod?
Why iTunes added images are added in iTunes db (so i have One single image for all the records) and no space is occupupied by ten or more pictures as when i add them manually?
I hope i've been clear..
thanks
bye
p.

Unless Itunes has the specific album or song then it can't download the artwork for it, so you need to find the artwork covers and then put them in manually. I rip my Cd's with windows media player 11 which adds in the art and then I use it to add to the albums in Itunes.
Here is a link to explain how to add in artwork manually to songs or albums in itunes..

Hi I just bought an album and one of the songs won't show up that's on that album?! Please help!

I just bought a brand new album and one of the songs on the album isn't there?

Delete the track from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track file to the Trash. Then download the track again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the track persist, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
Regards.

I cannot delete embedded album artwork in iTunes 12

I cannot delete embedded album artwork in iTunes 12. I download music from a service that sometimes has album artwork embedded, and I usually just delete it. Then I add the artwork from iTunes with the "get album artwork" command. But it only works if you can delete the embedded artwork first...and in iTunes 12, so far, I cannot. So I am stuck with the artwork that came with the files...and it's not always good. (Sometimes, it's even silly ads!)
In iTunes 11 and prior versions, I would highlight the songs in the album, right-click then choose "get info," choose the "details" tab, and put a checkmark next to the empty album art box for all songs. That would delete the embedded album artwork. You could also paste an image into the little box and it would apply to all the songs that had no artwork, to be sure they were all the same. Alternatively, I could also highlight the songs in the album, right-click then choose "get info," choose the "artwork" tab, and delete, cut or paste artwork right into the larger pane.
Without the ability to delete embedded artwork, I cannot maintain my library the way I'd like to. I even prefer the full album artwork to a "single" artwork, and so I even change the free iTunes downloads singles to the main album artwork.
Please help. Does anyone know how to delete album artwork in iTunes 12? I have a huge library and I want to continue to maintain it with the correct album artwork.

The new iTunes 12 Get Info dialog lacks right-click context menus (at least for now) but it still accepts most standard keyboard shortcuts and drag & drop actions.
Delete Artwork
On the artwork tab of Get Into, tap the image in question, use Backspace or Ctrl+X. Delete doesn't work.
Or, tap the image at the top left of Get Info, this time use Backspace or Delete, it is Ctrl+X that doesn't work.
Add Artwork
Select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the centre of the Artwork tab, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Or, select artwork, press Ctrl+C to copy, tap the small image area at the top left, press Ctrl+V to paste.
Or, you can drag & drop to, or sometimes from, the same locations.
You can also copy artwork from the Get Info dialog to Windows Explorer with the keyboard shortcuts.
If the source image is on a web page right-click and use Copy Image rather than copy. (With Chrome I get a one pixel wraparound so tend to go for a temporary local copy anyway - not sure whose bug this is, but it isn't new.)
If you have multiple images embedded drag the one you want to be the primary artwork to the leftmost position.
Replace/Remove All Artwork
The top left image box can be used to add or delete art from multiple tracks. In either case all existing artwork in all tracks is replaced/removed.
Old Style Get Info Dialog (as given above)
Select some items, right-click, hold down shift, then click Get Info from the context menu. (Use alt/option on a Mac)

Adobe Audition CRASHED. Multitrack is scrambled. PLEASE HELP!!!

Hello. Can someone please help me!!!
I Just finished editing my vocal tracks in Adobe Audition and the whole sound session was playing well I pressed save. The computer was saving all what I was working on but crashed. I re opened Adobe and all of my tracks are out of place and scrambled all over. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? I listen to the tracks in edit view and the sound files sound fine. But it’s when in multitrack view all the sound files are scrambled.
Can someone please help me???
[email protected]
Thank You.

Hello Everybody.
Thank you therealdobro and Suite Spot for your responses.
After breaking down, leaving my house, storming through town, flailing my hands in the air, kicking the air and saying the F word multiple times I finally came home to then find myself breaking down some more on my hands and knees saying the F word more multiple times and crying on the floor worse then a little kid having a temper tantrum or someone having one of their body parts cut off. But I would mostly compare my actions to someone losing a loved one and breaking down mixed with a mental patient in an insane asylum in a strait jacket wanting to escape and go back to when things were normal and happy.
So as a few hours of insanity passed I then called a friend to ask of is there any way at all to restore my computer to a former date and time? My friend told me that I can use system restore. So I did. But long story short system restore didn’t work so I started to break down again but also somehow kept hope that system restore may just work if I keep trying. I kept trying multiple times but once again it didn’t work. I then finally had one last breakdown and decided to move all of my 35 tracks into proper place by ear and hand.
So… Ask me how I’ am doing now? Well… 10 hours later after putting the puzzle together by ear and hand I now have a finished song that sounds better than it did in the first place. I must give the glory to Jesus though because without him guiding me through this extremely torturing time I would still be curled in a ball sucking my thumb and wanting to die.
So once again thank you therealdobro and Suite Spot for your responses. And although I fixed it all by hand and ear, therealdobro you were right (Allthough I checked Adobe forums after I fixed it, lol) also thank you Suite Spot for volunteering to look into my session and see if you could do anything to fix it. I thank you a lot.
Ps. If any of you would like to hear the complete song when it is done being mastered let me know and I would be more than happy to show you.
GOD Bless In Jesus Name, Amen.

Can't see album artwork

Hi
I have imported about 20 CDs into iTunes but I cannot get the album artwork to show. If I right-click the album in cover flow there's even an option that says "clear downloaded artwork" but I can't see the artwork! Please help........

Unless you purchase the CDs from ITunes store there won't be any artwork. In iTunes go to Advanced, then "Get Artwork" (make sure you are connected to the internet) and it will go off to iTunes Store and retrieve the artwork. If iTunes Store does not have the artwork, Google the Album name and artist and Amazon should come up. Click on "Images" and there should be some album covers. Drag a cover to the your desktop and open iTunes and drag the cover to the "place artwork here" in the bottom left hand corner of iTunes. If it is a very rare cd, scan the cover and drag it into iTunes.

Album Artwork Issue

Just got the Beatles box set, everything's tagged correctly (obviously, it's from the iTunes Store itself), and yet, some of the albums in the set won't load their artwork. At random, some have the artwork, some don't. To reiterate, I've double-checked all the tags, and they match perfectly with iTunes, but when I right-click and select 'Get Album Artwork' nothing shows up! I've even tried restarting iTunes, restarting my Mac, etc... to clear any caches or whatever might be holding this up. The problem persists. I've tried dragging 'manual album art' from Amazon, etc..., then deleting that, and getting the album artwork from iTunes again, yet the same problem: no artwork is ever downloaded for these specific "diseased" albums. Someone please help! Thank you.

Nevermind. After a few days and repeatedly trying this again, it seems to work. I now have all the proper album artwork downloaded from iTunes. I suppose this was just a server issue on Apple's end. The servers might have been too overloaded when I first got the albums the day of release. It works now.

Get Album Artwork doesn't load- the bar stays at zero.

When I secondary click, and select 'get album artwork', the bar at the top says 'proccessing album artwork' but the progress bar stays at zero. I've left it for almost ten minutes and it doesn't move at all. I restarted my computer and it doesn't help. I am connected to the internet, and the album exists in iTunes. Also, to be clear, I know that I can copy and paste or drag from the internet, but its much easier to just use the 'get album artwork' function. Help, please?

So if the album isn't available in the iTunes store, it's not recognized? That's ridiculous. That's like saying if I don't buy through iTunes, I shouldn't use iTunes to sync my music to my iPod. That sounds like Apple again following only wherever the dollar goes.
Windows Media Player uses All Music Guide, which stores everything whether you can buy it through anybody or not. Apple makes great devices, but they're continually pushing me away from them because they put the almighty dollar first and me second. Hopefully Google will integrate their online music service and I won't have to worry about whether an album I can buy just about anywhere won't be recognized by Apple's proprietary dollar-munching service.
