Some album covers not showing up in iTunes artwork screensaver

I'm seeing a lot of similar topics so maybe there is no fix to this, but here goes anyways...
I just got my Macbook Air about a month ago so I have the newest OS and I check for updates frequently. Now all the music I have so far on my iTunes is music I ripped directly off CD's I own, not burnt copies but originals. Some of the artwork was missing and I corrected it already with the Artwork option in 'Get Info'. However when I check the iTunes screensaver there is ONE album cover that no matter what I try, it WILL NOT show up. It's starting to drive me crazy. Strangely enough it was the only CD my Superdrive had trouble reading, which I also had to google tirelessly and remedy.
Is there anything I can do to resolve this? It's just one image so it seems like it should be a quick fix, but I can't get around it. Help?

This happen sometimes (seldom) if the album art on one song in a album is corrupted.
Mark all songs from that album in iTunes at once or right click on Album in Album view
Open the info pane (Get info)
click the little Artwork window down right active and press backspace key to delete the Album Art from the songs.
Copy (drag&drop) the picture again in that little window
click OK and confirm the pop up
Then check again with the Album Art screen saver.

Some album covers not showing (do I need to be online?)

Hi,
Just got my imac back after a recent repair and found some itunes oddness:
The OS booted and everything appeared to be ok. In the limited time I had today though, I noticed that my iTunes Library was gone. I just got the large dialog box as if I was starting from scratch. Slightly concerned, I delved into my libraries using Libra and switched to my Nano library. I started itunes again, same dialog box, but this time cos it's a much smaller library, I decided to click on agree. Sure enough the library appeared in itunes as normal. Hmmmm, how odd. I then switched to my bigger library and did the same. All hunky dory now (no not the bowie album, I mean all good now) except for the fact that album covers took ages to appear and some haven't appeared at all. The ones that are still blank are (If I remember correctly) the covers that I have downloaded from the itunes store. Are they not appearing cos I'm not connected to the internet? Or do I have a problem there?
One other thing I spotted was that my You Control itunes controller had not started. When I started it manually it asked me to register which I can not yet do without the internet access.
If anyone could advise me of the itunes issues that'd be great.
Cheers
Lee

It does not check as far as I know, but it is what is written in the license agreement and the activation will not allow more than 2 installs. The license indicates they are for the owner and the intent is to be run on only one machine at a time by the owner.

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring I have an iphone5 64 syncing about 8000 songs, so updating all is a time consuming, and now maddening process. Never had a problem before iOS 8. Someone (hello Apple) needs to develop a utility to help manage artwork recovery.

Some Podcast episodes not showing up in iTunes

Can anybody help? I've been using iWeb 1.1.1 without a hitch for awhile. The other day I updated to OS X 10.4.7. Made a change to something in iWeb, then published it. Now, only 3 of six podcasts show up in iTunes, shows 1, 4 and 6. Weird huh? Is this because of the OS X update? Anyone else experiencing this kind of problem?

Albums no longer show up in itunes and screensaver/background control panel

As of a day or so ago I am not longer able to update my pics in itunes as itunes no longer shows my albums in the ipod section of the preferences. Also I no longer see my albums for screensaver in the screensaver pane of the control panel. It seems these two are interconnected. I have tried removing the prefs and am getting nothing. Maybe export the library and reimport fresh?
Newest versions of all software installed.

macona:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Even though you've tried deleting the preference files try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto, iTunes and screensaver preference files. The screensaver files will be in your Library/ByHost folder. There may be at least two files with screensaver in the name.
2 - run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions.
3 - run Cocktail and delete the various use caches and run the cron scripts (in the Pilot section)
4 - launch the applications in the following order: iTunes and then iPhoto
5 - now try to reset the screen saver.
Do you Twango?

I have 3gs and some albums are not showing up under the artist, but if I search for them I can find them. Any ideas how to fix?

I have the 3gs and the new ios 5. I have just uploaded a new album by a band. I went to the music player and clicked on the bands name. It added the new album but the bands third album is missing. I thought it strange so I searched my iPhone and it comes up in the search bar when I type it in. Then I go back to the music player and its not there under artist. I can scroll and find specific songs on there so I know it's there but somehow it has dissapered on the artist heading. I've reset the phone and still nothing. Any ideas as to how I can fix this?

So I figured it out. If anyone else has the same problem, iTunes changed it into a compilation album and for some reason that messed it up. Just go to info under each song on that album and click part of a compilation.

Album art not showing up in itunes and iPod classic

Can this issue be resolved? Any tips would be appreciated

I'm sure it can. First of all, have you tried to "get album art"(by right-clicking and choosing it) as you signed into the iTunes store?

How can I list the songs in an album in iTunes without having to do it one by one? Some albums are not numbered.

How can I list the songs in an album in iTunes without having to do it one by one? Some albums are not numbered or they show 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1.

Poor metadata needs to be corrected if the album is to display properly in iTunes. iTunes sees an "album" as any collection of tracks with the same Album title and the same Album Artist (or Artist if Album Artist isn't set). Each track of the album should have distinct Track V of W and Disc X of Y vaules. W,X,Y are optional, but X may be needed for multi disc albums.
See Gropuing tracks into albums for details.

Videos in some iPhotos Albums do not show up on Apple TV.

Videos in some iPhotos Albums do not show up on Apple TV. Videos in other folders are there. For instance, one album has 43 videos and 1600 photos. Apple TV only shows the 1600 photos. Is there an issue with albums that have both photos and videos?

You can only view that rental on the iPad. For it to show up it has to be rented directly on ATV or through a computer and streamed via home sharing

HT1386 I have one album on my IPod Touch that does not show up on ITunes.

I am trying to download my music to the libraries on my computer. I noticed that one of my albums is not showing on ITunes but is showing up on my IPod.

No problem. Glad to have helped.
Not sure as to why it happened. I just know this has been happening to a few users lately. It may be with how you have your iPod touch configured to sync Podcasts. So you may want to double check these settings as well as mess around with them a bit to figure out if that is the cause. Otherwise, I'm not entirely sure on this one. Sorry I cannot be of much help here.

Defective Song Tracks Since iTunes 10.5 (also, recently purchased songs/albums are not showing up in purchased area for redownload purposes)

Last night I purchased the new Coldplay album from the iTunes store on my PC (as opposed to the iPad or iPhone). 2 of the 14 song files are defective (my bad ones are tracks 2 and 3). Those two play music for about the first 20 or 30 seconds of the track and then skip immediately to the next track. I had the same problem last week with two other albums I purchased from the iTunes store (also on my PC like last night). In those cases, I simply went to the "Purchased" quick link area and found everything I had just purchased. I deleted the defective files and then redownloaded them without a hitch. The replaced files now play fine.
However, the Coldplay album does not show up in my "Purchased" section (not last night or this morning when I rechecked). I am unable to redownload the defective files. I am doubly disturbed by this. For one, I have never had defective music downloads up until iTunes 10.5 and now I've had them on the three albums I've downloaded since. Two, now the "redownload music from the iCloud" function is not working for the most recent purchases. Perhaps this is true of all music purchased from iTunes over the past few days for everybody? Most people are probably mentioning Coldplay here on the boards because it's the hot new album. Note that this apparently is not affecting iOS apps, because my recent (within 24 hours) apps do show up in the purchased area.
It's very frustrating, because I want to sync this new Coldplay album with my iPhone so I can listen to it and I hate to have to transfer an incomplete album to it. My OCD-like nature gets to me sometimes. Part of me wants to just repurchase the two defective song files and hope that Apple won't charge me twice.

LOL!!! I had checked iTunes before writing this and the music was not there. I check after writing and now it has shown up. It took iTunes about 12 hours to do it though.
Last week, the music I purchased showed up immediately.
I guess iTunes is just not working as effeciently as it did last week. Could still be a bug or maybe just swamped servers? However, the problem that is most annoying to me right now is that all the music I have downloaded since iTunes 10.5 has contained defective tracks that needed to be redownloaded. I do not recall that ever occuring before.

New Beatles albums - track names and artwork not showing up in iTunes 9.0

Has anyone else bought the new Beatles remastered CDs and tried to import into iTunes 9.0?
All that shows up is Track 1, Track 2 etc and no album art.
Is this due to there being video on these albums too and how can one deal with this issue?

It is because they have not yet been added to the database that is used to provide the track information.
When you insert a CD into your computer and it appears in iTunes, the iTunes software connects to a database and looks for the track names for the CD. If it finds the CD in the database the track names are downloaded and use to tag the music.
The album art on the other hand is provided by the iTunes Music Store, so if an album is not available in the iTunes Store than you cannot get the album art for it. As the Beatles are not yet available in the iTunes Store you will not get the album art.

Some videos are not showing in Apple TV playlist after upgrade to 6.0. Can play on Macbook itunes and using airplay to Apple TV. Anybody else have this issue?

Some videos are not showing in my Apple TV playlists after upgrade to 6.0. They were there prior to upgrade and I can play on Macbook itunes and also using using airplay to Apple TV. Anybody else have this issue?

Ok, so I'll try again. Thank you for the idea of looking in Home Videos, which is where all my "lost" videos are listed.
Is there a way to get them to display under their appropriate genre in the Movie section, which is where they all were listed prior to the os6 update? It does me no good to have hundreds of movies categorized in iTunes via a genre only to have them appear in Home Videos on ATV. These are not "home movies." They are legit mp4 movies that worked great under v5.

How come the song and album does not show up on top of the new iTunes?

I just downloaded the new iTunes and when I go to play a song, the title and album does not show up on the top of the screen. The only thing that is there is the Apple logo. Does anyone know why this is? and how can I get it to show the song title and album.
The song is playing right now, but it is not showing up where it used to. (Where the Apple logo is)

Album Art not showing up?

Has anyone else had a problem with their album art not showing up in coverflip? These are all CD's that I own and ripped onto my computer with iTunes, and if I look at them in iTunes I can see the cover art. But when I turn my ipod sideways to flip through the albums, I see a bunch of black squares. Some of the albums I can see the artwork when it's not the selected album, but if I scroll to it, the art disappears and it's just an empty black square. The only albums where this seems to work properly are the ones I bought and downloaded digitally through iTunes, but most of my music collection is CD's, so I'm really hoping there's a way to fix this.
I've already tried googling pictures of the album art and re-tagging the songs with the picture on there, and it does do a sync afterwards, but I'm still seeing black squares. I also tried deleting one of the albums from my ipod entirely, and reloading it, and that worked the first time I went into coverflip, but in subsequent tries it has reverted back to being just a black square.

use the search discussions box. there are loads of threads on this. you definitely aren't alone
the only real solution i've seen is to re-sync the problem tracks, i've probably missed some though, so it's worth looking around.
