Software To Get Album Name Into iTunes for Nano?

Some of the songs I own on my Nano have only the Artist name and Song title. Can someone point me to software that exists that can take Artist/Title and populate Album name automatically?
I just found a great program that goes into Amazon to pull down album cover art for the Nano, but with a couple of hundred songs lacking the LP name, it won't work.
TIA
BJ

Are you referring to something that can download the album name from the Web given artist and song name, for instance? I don't know of any software that will do that and I don't see how an app could do it reliably.
The problem is that a given song by a given artist may be on more than one album: the original release, an artist compilation (greatest hits), or a multiple-artist compilation.

  • Best way for getting album art into iTunes/iPod?

    First of all, when you pull the track listing down from Gracenote when importing CDs, does the album art come with it? I don't see any art. And then if not, what is the best source for getting a low resolution digital file for each CD imported and how do you make sure it will make it to your iPod from iTunes? Is there any easy or streamlined process? Also, do the low resolution files add up for each song and take up hard-drive space? Thanks for any input.

    click
    on it on drag it to the desktop, then into the album
    art box of iTunes.
    I believe that copying directly into the iTunes box
    will use more space on your HD than going via the
    desktop.
    It's the other way round.
    If you copy it to your Desktop then it takes space there and if you then copy it to iTunes it gets added to the music file making that bigger.
    Of course, if you delete it from the Desktop and empty the Trash then you won't have it taking space.
    Here's a useful app for working out where all your space is going: Disk Inventory X

  • How do I get album artwork into itunes when it is not available from itunes

    Previously I could drag an image into the corner of itunes where album artwork is displayed, but it doesn't seem to work in this version of itunes.

    (Right-click)->Get Info on the album, and there'll be an artwork window at the lower right corner
    of the info (or maybe summary?) tab.

  • When i plug my phone into itunes for the ios update, it downloads but then says it cant connect to the server. How do i get my update?

    When i plug my phone into itunes for the ios update, it downloads but then says it cant connect to the server. How do i get my update?

    Here are Apple Steps for Error 21:
    This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    My additional advice:
    Also Error 21 can occur with DFU Mode Restore, try Recovery Mode Restore. Restart computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click Restore button of iTunes.

    Yes I can help you out:  If you have found a place that sells it, buy it.

  • HT1338 for itunes 10.7 it is saying that my mac need version OS X needs to be version 10.8.6 - how do i get this? There are no current software updtes and i cant use iTunes for my new iphone 5

    For itunes 10.7 it is saying that my mac need version OS X needs to be version 10.8.6 - how do i get this? There are no current software updates and i cant use iTunes for my new iphone 5

    I think you meant 10.6.8, not 10.8.6
    It requires an upgrade, instead of a free update.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

    I have got the same problem. I am  using windows 8.1, latest version of iTunes, Symantec NIS.  My internet connection is working.
    My apple Id and my password are correct since they work on my iPad and on my iPhone.
    message is "ware sorry.we cannot complete your request on the itunes store at this time."   And in smaller letters : "try again later". Which i did many times over several days.  Just does not work.
    any idea anybody ?

  • When I sign into iTunes for updates, a secondary username appears and I need to enter a password. I am not familiar with the second user name. Any Suggestions?

    When I sign into iTunes for updates, a secondary username appers and I need to enter a password. I am not familiar with the second username. Any suggestions?

    Are you using iTunes on your iPad or the actual program on a Mac/PC?
    If you are using on your iPad check the ID being used by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store if the Apple ID displayed isn't yours tap it and select Sign Out then sign in with your own Apple ID.
    If you are referring to iTunes on a Mac/PC select the Store Menu and check the Account Name next to the View Account text, if this isn't you select the Sign Out option directly above it then Sign In with the relevant credentials.

  • Computer has different name than Itunes for Ipod Touch

    I have an Ipod Touch 4th Generation 32gb. I have had no problems with it or with Itunes. My Mom came last Saturday to visit and she needed to charge her Ipod Touch so I hooked it to my computer where I always have a cord and charged it for about 45 minutes or so. I have no problem with my Ipod or with Itunes BUT when I go look at the device now on my computer,when it is connected to USB cord, it show "Marys Ipod" now instead of "Steves Ipod". In Itunes, it is still "Steves Ipod" and I can sync and all but I really want to get rid of "Marys Ipod" off my computer even though when I open it up, it is my ipod, just mislabed. I know because it has my pictures and her's is only 8gb. My Ipad2, is fine when I hook it up to the USB cord, It says "Steves Ipad" but when I hook my USB cord to my ipod touch, it still reads "Marys Ipod". Is this something I should be concerned about or is it not worth the hassle of trying to restore, etc? I have tried to change the name, but Windows won't allow. I do have Windows 7. I have also got the new update on Itunes and the new software(5.0) version.
    I am stumped. I have googled this and have searched for over 3 hours today on how to fix this. Ready to bang my head against the wall. I have did a reboot on Ipod, I have restarted the computer. I have not reinstalled anything including Itunes.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? I would sure appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

    I just found the answer to this after hours of searching online. Make sure your iPod is hooked up to your computer & turned on.
    Click on "Start" and in the search box type "regedit". This will display a program called "Registry Editor". Open it.
    Click on the "Edit" tab and select "Find...". Type "Mary" in the search box and click "Find Next". It will bring up a list of everything that has "Mary" in it. (You may have to click on "Find next" under the "Edit" tab in order to find the associated items that have something to do with both "iPod" and "Mary".) What you need to pay attention to is not the NAME, but the DATA column. For me, the wrong iPod name was listed in 2 places in the data column. The actual names of those 2 items were "FriendlyName" and "Label".
    Once you find the associated items that have to do with both the iPod and "Mary", right click on one of them. Select "Modify...". A box will open giving a "Value Name" box and a "Value Data" box. The "Value Data" box should say "Mary's iPod". All you have to do is change it to "Steve's iPod" and click "OK". Repeat the "Modify..." and renaming of the "Value Data" steps for every item that says something about "Mary's iPod".
    Close the Registry Editor. Open "my computer" and see that it changed the name of your iPod back to "Steve's iPod".
    Best Answer So far.....it really works...Thanks a million

  • Can't Drag Album Artwork into iTunes

    For some reason I can no longer drag album artwork into iTunes. If I click on a song or on a group of songs and there is no artwork available, I can no longer drag album art to the "Drag Album Artwork Here" in the bottom left corner. Same goes for when I right click and say "Get Info". It will show a little green plus sign as I drag the picture over the drop area but nothing happens.
    I'm running 10.4 and have made sure that I have read and write privledges to all of the specified folders.
    Anyone have any other ideas?

    Where are you dragging the images from? It might just be that particular site, if you're using the same location time and time again. I use Amazon music when looking for album art for iTunes and generally have good luck with it.
    Are you trying to drag artwork for songs that already have artwork associated with them? Sometimes you might want to clear the downloaded artwork for those tracks and then drag in the new image. I've run into this in cases where I've downloaded a single track from iTunes but then used something else to complete the album.
    Beyond those suggestions, you might want to try re-creating your iTunes Library, per the steps in this document. Note that some data may be lost, such as play counts and date added.

  • How do I get iPhone movies into iTunes' movie menu in the sidebar?

    I've tried to get iPhone movies into iTunes, but they turn into .MOV files and won't transfer!
    I've tried exporting iPhone movie files from iPhoto into iTunes shared movie files (Movies folder), but
    they don't appear in the iTunes movie list!  They don't appear in the iPad video app either!
    What's the story!  .  .  .  . thanks f

    Allan,  I tried all you suggested.  I ended up with 'IMG' files in the source list, and they won't play.  When double clicked they try to open for a blink, then back to the list.
    When exporting the iPhone video from iPhoto, what did you fill out in the dialogue box.  All I saw were selections referring to photos (jpeg, medium, etc.) I didn't see choices for video!  Wouldn't it be just as easy to just drag
    the video from the iPhoto thumbnails to the desktop?  Am I missing something here?
    Thanks again

  • HT5295 How do I get podcasts back into itunes in ios6?

    I updated to IOS6 yesterday and found that podcasts had been removed from iTunes and put into the new Podcasts app.  Having spent a day using this app, I have found it to be terrible: it's slow (podcasts take 10-20 seconds to start after I select them - and these are podcasts I've already downloaded, no streaming), the "next" button takes you to an older podcast rather than a newer one like in itunes, for some reason it decided I hadn't listened to about 40 podcasts that I had definitely listened to, the interface is unresponsive, etc.  I went from having a pleasant podcast experience in IOS5 to a terrible one in IOS6.  Does anyone know how to get podcasts back into iTunes, or if that's not possible, can anyone recommend a podcast app that works as smoothly as iTunes did in IOS5?
    Thanks!

    I've just now stumbled into this briar patch with my 4th Gen IPod Touch.  Have only used it to date for music, and it's worked fine.
    I would LOVE to add podcasts.  I'm able to download them to my iTunes PC files, but the pre-loaded 'music' app doesn't seem to want to play them.  I've downloaded the Podcast App, but it's for the IOS series 7. 
    There are a number of suggestions on line regarding how Apple had recognized this problem and had finally made previous versions available "underneath" the App Store Podcast icon . . . but nothing seems to work.
    Did Apple turn around and remove the older Podcast App versions?
    Does anyone know how to get Podcast functionality for a 4th gen IOS 6 series?  This seems like a basic function for an iPod!
