Some Artwork missing in Album and Artist view

So, after updating to iTunes 11 and my library being trashed. I now have a restored library on Windows 7 with all plycounts and ratings in place. So far so good but a lot of my artwork is missing in both Artist and Album view. I took the trouble to tag my artwork to each file and as I have a 160gb library I don't fancy much doing that over again.
Incidentally when I choose a track, from an album that appears to have no artwork it **sometimes** shows up in the now playing section of the interface as a small icon.
I have even tried pasting in artwork to an album or two but they still don't show.
Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
thanks

A similar thing happened to me but on my iphone. On your laptop make sure that in your albums the songs have album artwork. For me they had it all but when i synced it to my phone the album artwork didnt show for some of the albums so I plugged my phone in and unchecked sync songs to delete the songs from my phone and then rechecked sync music to bring the music back to the phone and all the album artwork were there. Hope this helps!

  • Is there any possible way to set your itunes to just show the album name without the songs included in the album in artist view. and then be able to select the album to expand all the songs. this would be ideal as I have many albums under certain artists

    I use to use windows media player. The layout was great. It would have icons (one of the album artwork inside the folder) for the artists. you could click on the artist and it would have the icons for all of the albums (similar to itunes) however it would not have all the songs included in that album listed underneath or within it. you had to click on the icon for the album to go into that particular album to view the songs. In my personal opinion this was much easier to search for a particular album especially if you had many albums under one artist as I do. I collect live concert recordings for several particular bands. It would be really nice if itunes would allow you to contract the songs names within each album under artist view and have some way to exand them or open a seperate album folder when clicking on the album name through artist view. is this even possible. does anyone know a way to allow this is happen. you would make a serious music collector very happy. I know this is a crazy request but for people who are serious music collectors like myself with over a TB of music it is much easier to consolidate each individual album under each individual artist for faster searching/viewing needs

    You are describing an iTunes problem, not an iPod touch problem. Try posing in the iTunes forum.

  • ITunes refuses to group one video with others with the same album and artist

    This is absolutely ridiculous. They have the exact same album and artist name, yet my latest addition refuses to group with the others. I've tried so many things, yet it still won't group. Tried adding some random text to both the album and artist. Then tried removing the random text. Also tried completely removing all the text and manually typing them again. Still does the exact same thing. And believe me, there are no spaces or weird characters that differentiate them. They are exactly the same. The weird thing is, if I add the word "Nuke" before "Jizztage" in the title, it will then group. What the ****? I don't want the title of the video to be "Nuke Jizztage Volume 1." Just so frustrating for an app that has been around for donkey's years. And no, it's not a big deal. Just annoys me that I have to spend hours trying to figure out why this stupid piece of software won't do the simplest of things!

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Some apps give just sound and no view

    I just installed my apple tv, with the ipad i am able to look and hear ie. youtube and videos (synced to my ipad)on my television. However some apps give only sound and no view. Why is this, and is this going to Be supported by apple? Or should i configue something?

    apple provide the possibility to do it, the ball is in the app developers court to support it.

  • No indexed list and alphabet bar in "albums" and "artists"

    Please help!!! No indexed list and alphabet bar in "albums" and "artists" suddenly, but only in "songs", firmware 2.2.1. Any idea???

    You only get the 'index' running down the right of the screen if you have enough items in that category. Somewhere over 20-30, I believe.

  • I lost all of my artist names and album names for my iTunes library. They are all now on one album. How can I get the album and artist names back?

    I lost all of my artist names and album names for my iTunes library. They are all now on one album. How can I get the album and artist names back?

    I have a script called ExportImport for this task, but it only runs in Windows.
    In principle something similar should be possible in AppleScript, but I don't currently have access to a Mac to write it myself.

  • Why my tracks are not shown in Album view and Artist view, only Album Artworks are shown???

    Dear,
    I have not have this problem in the previous version of iTune. As soon as i upgraded it to iTunes 11, it happens.
    The problem in here is all my songs, tracks are still here, i can see all of them in "songs view". However, when i change the view to Album View, and click into the Album artwork, there is no track there. When i double click into the Album Artwork, the first song of the album will be played normally.
    Same story to the Artist View. Only the Album Artworks are shown and the rest is completely blank.
    I have absolutely no idea what is going on here and obviously i am not satisfy with this new version.
    Is there any way for me to fix this problem? Please help!
    Otherwise i will need to use other software for music playing.
    Regard,

  • Why can't I select just one album under artist view and listen to it from beginning to end anymore? Why would you change that?

    Why can't I go under artist view in music app, select 1 of multiple albums by a specific artist and play the whole album from beginning to end? Why would you have it automatically shuffle between songs from several albums by the same artist automatically? How do we change this back to previous function because this is sucking big time for a music lover.

    I agree this is a really dumb change and I really hope Apple changes it back to the way it was.
    In iOS 6 and earlier when you were in the Music player and selected ARTIST it would show a list sorted by artist. When you selected the artist you wanted, it would show a list of their albums.  Then you could select the album and see the list of songs.  In iOS 7 after you select Artist, it displays the album and every track, so you have to scroll down through not only the album but every track on that album.   That was a really stupid change on Apple's part.  Makes no sense.
    Here is the list of albums under iOS 6.x...
    and here is what is looks like under iOS 7.0
    In iOS 7.0 you have to scroll down through all the songs to see the other albums.  That can be a really pain if you have a large music collection.
    Please Apple change it back to the way it was!!  This didn't need to change!

  • ITUNES doesn't always load up and some artwork missing!!

    I have all my music on en external hard-drive and the itunes and artwork on my c:drive, occasionally when I open itunes it says importing itunes, this goes on for a while then it says it couldn'nt find the file and has renamed it itunes library damaged, it then opens itunes with all my songs but with alot of the artwork missing, this happens about once a fortnight - aarrhhh, why??
    Thanks

    Ok, so I went and found the album I was looking for and dragged it in, but the image is pretty poor.  Is that the best we can hope for?  Why can't Apple allow us to drag the image from iTunes store? Or better yet let us import the artwork without buying the album since I owned the album/cd long before there was any such thing as Apple, iTunes or iPods?

  • Genius frozen and some artwork missing!?

    Hello
    I have just migrated my itunes library to a laptop from an old PC, and everything is fine, except for 2 things;
    Some artwork (maybe 10%) has vanished, even though it was there on the old machine. Any tips for finding it?
    But more weirdly, I have tried turning on Genius and it gets about halfway and comes to a grinding halt (during the gathering info about your library stage). Itunes is using 50-55% of CPU but nothing is happening within the program...
    I have a very large library, but it seems odd that it should get half way quite fast and then do nothing at all (now about 6 hours and counting...)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
    Cheers
    Simon

    I have the same problem. I added artwork manually to all the songs I burned from my CD's. They were all working fine until one day about 40% of them won't display anymore on my iPod, but they are visible when looking at the song through iTunes to the iPod while connected.
    I have done searches on this topic and have concluded that Apple has no idea what is wrong, what causes it, or how to fix it. There are many, many, many unanswered questions about this topic.
    People say to deselect the display options via iTunes then reselect it. But why? That does not work. And I think it assumes that everyone is synching 100% of their songs between iPod and iTunes (I don't, because I don't want many of those songs on my iTunes, but want them on my iPod).
    I would really like to know the root cause and have a reliable solution from someone. The artwork is on the iPod, but it just does not display it anymore on 40% of my songs.

  • IPod Touch Duplicates Albums and Artists

    Hi, I recently got a 3rd Gen iPod Touch (64gb) and have had some trouble after syncing it to my iTunes library. My old iPod never had any problems, but after syncing the iPod Touch many of the albums and some of the artists in my library appear twice.
    I've checked for spaces after the names or different album artwork, but the real problem is that the albums or artists are listed twice in their entrety - every song appears twice. Is there any fix for this?

    I also recently got a 3rd gen iPod Touch (32GB) and saw the same feature.
    It appeared that if an album had different artists then the album was duplicated for each different artist name.
    A solution which seems to work is to set the compilation to 'yes' :-as follows
    Select all the tunes in the album
    Get info
    asks - do you want to edit information for multiple items - yes
    Select Options tab
    Part of compilation - set to yes
    Resync

  • Some artwork missing since iOS 7

    Since I synced to iTunes after the 1OS 7 update a lot of my artwork is messed up or missing. Where the artwork should be will be the artist name followed by a single instead of the album - and I don't even have the single in my library! It's like this for about 30 albums. The artwork is showing up correctly in Itunes but not on my iPod. Using iPod Touch 5th gen.
    iTunes Match is disabled. Any suggestions?

    Artwork doesn't sync with music in ipod...: Apple Support Communities
    then if necessary
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • Why is some artwork missing from my iPod when it is correct in iTunes?

    I have had great trouble trying to sync my iPod Touch (4th Gen running iOS 6.0.1) with iTunes (10.7.0.21) for Windows. Every 2000 or so tracks (out of about 15,000), iTunes says that some tracks could not be copied and that the connection with the iPod has timed out. This has resulted in losing up to 12,000 already synced tracks, and having to startagain from scratch (at least three times). I have resolved the issue by just syncing two or three albums at a time until the fault occurs, and making sure that there is no syncing taking place when I have to do a hard reset to close iTunes. The problem I'm having now is that there are several albums with the artwork missing - despite the fact that it was ok on previous syncs, and the fact that it is all present and correct in iTunes! I've heard that you should clear the artwork cache - is this correct, and if so how do you do it?
    Any suggestions gratefully received!
    Andrew Morten

    All I can suggest is:
    Try:
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
