Screen savers+iTunes library dose not contain any songs with artwork.

iTunes Artwork saver does not work. Any suggestion.
ITunes 10.5. MacBook Pro Mid 2010. Mac OS X(10.7.3).

I have just purchased a new Imac running 10.8 mountain lion, after loading new songs into itunes I too had no screen saver working showing the art work.
This had nothing to do with voice memos, no other items were connected so have tried this method and it works twice on both computers, the other is running leopard.
If all your music is on the main hard drive, check in finder and your itunes folders should be in music, all I did was make a new folder and call it music 2, make sure its under music on the left hand side, drag the itunes music folder containing only the music into this. From this go to itunes in applications delete itunes into trash, restart computer then download the latest version. When all opened up you should get a home page showing get music from icloud or scan for media, press scan and let the new version find it on your computer, when finished go to screen saver settings and notice the itunes screen saver working.
I don't know why this works either its a software fault with apple or just my luck, but I have had no problems since and looks greats on the screen.

  • ITunes Artwork Screensaver "Your iTunes Library does not contain any songs

    i have been using the iTunes Artwork Screensaver on my 1.25GHz PowerPC G4, running Leopard 10.5.2 and it has worked perfectly, showing all my album artwork. i got all the album covers from amazon.com or google. i have always kept my iTunes Library on my Boot Drive and have never moved it.
    Yesterday when my computer went into screensaver mode (itunes artwork) the message "Your iTunes Library does not contain any songs with artwork"!
    This is really strange, as all the albums in my library have artwork. i have also tried deleting the iTunes Artwork Screensaver preference file.
    I know that there are many issues with the artwork screensaver, but i have not found a solution to this problem.
    I would appreciate anyones help!

    i'm glad to see that i'm not the only one with this problem. i have seriously tried everything, like deleting the preference files of the itunes screensaver, using a script to embed the artwork, repairing disc permissions but i the screensaver just won't work. the message that my library does not contain any artwork still appear every time.

  • Need to make new iTunes library and not move any media

    I have my iTunes folder on an external drive, and my iTunes library file was damaged. I need to import all of my media, but I don't want iTunes to make duplicates of everything. I cannot find an answer to this simple problem. Can anyone help?
    By the way, I was very disappointed when I called Apple for support with the issue. Curtis told me my AppleCare (which he could not verify) expired yesterday, so he would get in trouble if he helped me. I bought my first Mac in 1994, have owned half-dozen of them since, several iPhones, an iPad, etc., and this is the first time I have heard anything besides, "How can we help you?" Once did a tech mention that the product I was actually calling about was outside of AppleCare but since I had other active AppleCare purchases, he was not worried about it.
    Anyway, I feel like there is probably an answer out there, but I'm just not searching with the right keywords.

    Hold down the option key and iTunes will ask you if you want to create a library, do so, putting it in the iTunes folder on the external drive where the damaged one is located.  Then use File > Import to import the .xml version of the library in that folder.  This will populate the new library with the contents of the old one, minus a bit of metadata and anything you may have just recently added.  To double-check you can go to File > Add to Library and point it to the media folder and it will add everything that is in there. Anything that is already there from the earlier stage it will ignore. Anything it didn't catch the first time it will add.
    In a big corporation people are bound more strictly by the rules, especially those low down the ladder.  There's probably a piece of paper somewhere saying, "Do not provide assistance to those not covered by Applecare for the product they are calling about," and if a boss wanted to be sticky they could fire somebody for violating a rule.  A sole proprietor might just say it's only a few extra minutes, no materials cost, and good PR, and they are the one making the rules and decisions.

  • HT204053 I have iCloud turned on, but when I go to iTunes, I do not see any music with the cloud.

    I have iTunes turned on, but do not see any music from the cloud (with the little cloud prefix in front of the song) on my MacBook Pro.

    iCloud only allows you to access your music from iCloud in two ways.  First, you can redownload music previously purchased from the iTunes store (in many countries), as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  Second, you can access your iTunes library from iCloud (up to 25,000 songs) if you subscribe to iTunes Match.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/.

  • HT1347 When I Convert my MP3 to iTunes Library, Import why are the song title, artwork, artist name are gone?

    thank You Steven G.

    I don't understand what you are actually doing. You can import an MP3 file into your iTunes Library without conversion.
    Either drag the MP3 into iTunes from it's location on your computer or use Add File To Library. Either way, the file should then list in your library, complete with the tag information.

  • ITunes library won't display any songs?

    Recently I got my Hard Drive replaced at the Apple store and I was left with zero data on the drive. When I got home I started up my Mac and did the whole registration and asked it to restore from my Time Machine back-up. It all went smoothly until I opened iTunes and all that showed up was just a blank space where my music should be. The alternating blue and white lines weren't even there, it was just blank. I tried dragging and dropping my iTunes folder to the iTunes icon and the songs started playing, but still nothing is being displayed. How can I fix this?

    I am having the same problem. iTunes won't display any of the songs in my library - it's just a blank screen. The songs are there because they play. I can listen to them, I just cannot see them.

  • Can you keep extra songs on your iPod that are not in your iTunes library, and not lose these songs every time you want to delete something from your iPod in the future?

    I have all these songs that I want to store on my iPod but not on my computer, and I know that by choosing to manually manage my music I can still hang on to these songs when I add new songs to my iPod.  However, what if I want to delete songs off of my iPod in the future?  Will I lose all of the extra music that is on my iPod but not my computer, due to the fact that the only way to delete songs seems to be by syncing? 

    The answer to the question in the title of the thread is yes, but it is not necessarily a good idea. At some point you are likely to find you need to restore your iPod for one reason or another, or it could be lost, stolen or damaged. If your songs aren't on your computer, and backed up too, then you will be less than happy.

  • ITunes 9.2 XML file does NOT contain any iBooks information

    I have a little script that I have that generates a webpage to list what is in my iTunes library. I noticed that the XML file does not contain ANY information about iBooks or PDFs that you import. Any idea why that is? If my main library file gets corrupt, and I have to use the XML file to rebuild, I would lose all the iBook information....
    Seems like a oversight by the iTunes people

    why did Apple even make an XML file in the first place as initially most things in iTunes (following your logic) would be purchases from the iTunes store.
    Incorrect. The existence and use of iTunes significantly predates the existence of the iTunes Store. iTunes was initially designed to get its content from CDs. The XML file was for use by other apps such as iMovie or third-party apps to have access to the iTunes library so as to be able to locate tracks and playlists for use in the app.
    Anyway, I'm not interested in arguing with you about the matter.
    Apple, plus put iBooks stuff in the XML file!

  • I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created.  The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder.  Any ideas?

    I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created.  The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder.  Any ideas?

    Let's try this first. Hold down the Shift key while you try to launch iTunes. You should eventually see the following dialog:
    Click "Choose library". Browse to inside the following location (depending on what operating system you're running):
    Operating System
    Default location of iTunes library
    Microsoft Windows XP
    \Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Microsoft Windows Vista
    \Users\[your username]\Music\iTunes\
    Microsoft Windows 7
    \Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
    ... and open the iTunes library you find in there.
