Unable to transfer album artwork to printer

Since upgrading to Leopard I have been unable to print album artwork. When I hit Print the artwork does not transfer to printer. This only applies to iTunes. All other applications o.k.

Erica,
It sounds like you may not realize that for CD's you add to iTunes yourself, you have to add the artwork yourself as well.
One way to do this is to find the album cover at a web site such as amazon.com. Save the artwork on your computer, a new folder called
i Album covers
might be helpful for this purpose.
Now it's time to get the artwork into iTunes. Select
b Library
in the
i Source List
and click on the
b Browse
icon in the top right corner of iTunes.
Now select the CD in the Browse pane and press the
b Ctrl
and
b I
keys at the sqame time.
After confirming that you want to edit information for multiple items, you will be taken to the
i Multiple Song Information
window. Double-click the large
b Artwork
box and then navigate to the image you downloaded from amazon.com and confirm that's the image you want.
You will now be able to view the artwork in iTunes by selecting Edit menu > Show Artwork and it should be on your iPod the next time you synch with iTunes.
I hope this is the answer to your problem. If not, post back.

  • Unable to add album artwork to iTunes

    Try as I might, I'm unable to add album artwork to an album that I have in iTunes.
    I've bought up the Info dialog for the album by either command + I or from the context menu to get the info for the entire album - and then I've tried dragging the album artwork as a JPEG, PNG and a re-saved JPEG to the album well or copying it in Finder and pasting it onto the well - and I've also got the open file dialog to appear by double-clicking on the well and picked it that way ... And nothing, I just can't get the artwork to appear.
    Is there something that I'm not doing or is this a bug? It's very frustrating.

    I have the same problem -- it used to be so simple with the previous version of iTunes.

  • Transfer Album Artwork to another computer?

    Most of my album artwork has been retrieved automatically using the "Get Album Artwork" command in iTunes. Other album artwork has been copied from amazon.com or other sites. Where exactly does all this artwork get stored? How can I transfer album artwork to another computer? I see album artwork docs stored in 4 folders:
    1) C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Download
    2) C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Local
    and ALSO in:
    3) C:\Documents and Settings\MYUSERNAME\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Download
    4) C:\Documents and Settings\MYUSERNAME\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Local
    To backup/transfer to another computer, which of these 4 folders do I need? Why are there 4? How can I combine to 1 or 2? Do I simply copy folders from one computer to another? Which folder(s)? My iTunes library is on an ext hard drive, but the album artwork is on the C drive. I backup/transfer the itunes library by connecting my ext hard drive to the 2nd computer, and hit "Add Folder to Library", but don't know how to properly transfer the artwork folder(s). Thanks for the help!

    Hi Pete,
    You would copy the entire iPhoto Library folder to the other computer. Put the iPhoto Library folder in the Pictures folder of the other computer (make sure there is no library with the same name in the Pictures folder. If there is rename it.
    Does the other computer have the same version of iPhoto? does the other computer already have photos in the library.
    What do you want to do if there is another library on the other computer?
    Copy iPhoto Library folder from one Mac to another
    -If the library is small enough, burn the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to CD/DVD.
    Drag the iPhoto Library folder from the CD/DVD to your Pictures folder of the iMac.
    -If the computers are networked, copy the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder of the other Mac.
    -If you have an iPod, copy the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to the iPod. Connect the iPod to the other computer and copy the iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder of the other Mac.
    -If you have a firewire cable, copy the ENTIRE iPhoto LIbrary folder to the Pictures folder of the other Mac
    Things to keep in mind:
    -If the usersnames are different you might have to set the permissions on the iPhoto Library folder to Read/Write for the new user. Check the "apply to enclosed items" at the bottom of the "get info" window.
    -If there is another iPhoto Library folder on the other Mac, change it's name so it doesn't get replaced by the iPhoto Library folder you are copying into the Pictures folder...or....drag it to another place on your hard drive.

  • Ipod in the phone is unable to load album artworks

    ipod in the phone is unable to load album artworks, and when songs or videos with album artworks or thumbnails selected, it automatically returns to home screen. can it be fixed?

    You are not addressing Apple here. If you have a problem, describe it and someone might be able to help. Just to be sure, the wi-fi on the phone will go off after the phone goes into sleep mode unless it is actively being used. This is a battery saving measure. If you are actively using the internet, and the phone is still awake, then the wi-fi should remain connected.
    What troubleshooting steps have you tried.

  • Is there an easier way to transfer album artwork to all songs on album?

    Here is your saviour... it's called iTunes Art Importer.
    What this program does is uses the information provided by iTunes and searches Amazon's vast database of music, and finds the appropriate album art.

  • Unable to view album artwork

    Hi there,
    I am unable to use the album artwork feaure to it's full capacity.I am able to view only selected artwork. For example, I'm able to see all the album work from the songs I bought and downloaded from iTunes. But I can't see the artwork from audio cds in which I imported into my iTunes library. I already updated my ipod to 1.2, my iTunes to 4.9 and checked the box where it states "to view album artwork" and still nothing. In addition, I noticed that when I try to view the artwork when I actually place an audio cd in the computer and click on "show artwork" I get the following message "Album artwork is not modifiable."
    Before I got the ipod 20gb with color display, I had an ipod 20gb...could that past history be part of the reason why I'm unable to view the artwork??
    Please Help. Thanks.

  • TRANSFER ALBUM ARTWORK

    is there anyway can transfer just album artwork if i have it set to manual in my itunes?
    on my pod some artwork isnt there but shows up on my itunes

    I have to disagree. If the iPod is set to manual, you can add artwork to the songs already on the iPod without the need to delete anything and then transfer it back again.
    You just need to highlight the songs on your iPod and use the copy/paste method to add artwork to the box. I have done this many times.
    What you cannot do however is to add artwork directly to the songs on the iPod using the "get artwork" option from iTunes.

  • Party Shuffle: "iTunes is unable to browse album artwork on this computer"

    Hello
    I have recently had to completely wipe and reformat my hard-drive, after the Operating System started running really slowly. I'm now back up to speed and everything's great, including iTunes.
    However, when I go to run the Party Shuffle, I get the above error message showing. Whilst this doesn't interfere with the functionality of the application, I was wondering if there was perhaps some additional component that needed to be installed in order to make iTunes able to display the artwork. For what it's worth, I can view the artwork in the Artwork Browser, just not in Jukebox mode.
    None of this is a showstopper, but I know that I used to have this functionality and now I don't.
    TIA.

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help: iTunes 7 for Windows is unable to display album covers in Cover Flow

  • How can I manually transfer album artwork from my library to my iPod

    I downloaded album artwork to the songs in my library, and now I want to get the artwork onto the songs on my iPod classic. Problem is, I manually manage the songs on my ipod, instead of auto-syncing.... so when I hit the "sync" button in the latest version of iTunes (11.1.1.11), nothing happens. There also isn't a "show album artwork on iPod" button anymore. I'm afraid to change my settings from manual to automatic syncing, because I have lots of playlists on my iPod that aren't in my library, and I don't know if these playlists will be removed during the auto-sync. So how can I manually get the album artwork onto my iPod?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    You can only backup iOS devices.
    Sadly the old trick of removing all artwork and then adding it all back again no longer works. You may get some joy if you removed the specific album, then add it back again, butgenerally once things go wrong with artwork on a classic the only option is to restore it. Not a problem if all the media is in your library and you sync with a small number of selected playlists. If you don't have all the media see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • TS1815 unable to download album artwork

    I am re-organising my cd collection and copying to my new desktop using itunes, however, I could not download any album artwork for all the albums (over 450) which I brought (mostly from Hong Kong). I have authorised three computers using the same apple id. When I tried to get album artwork it shown processing album artwork but when end nothing had happened. Can anyone help? I am using window 7 and latest itune version.
    Thanks.
    Peter

    If you can't use iTunes to get artwork you can get it from various other sources and add it manually. I find this site is a good source of artwork:
    CD/Album Cover Art Search from SlothRadio.
    iTunes 7 for Windows - Adding artwork to songs and other items
    Another place for finding suitable artwork is to go to Amazon. You can also locate artwork using Google image search and put the artist or album name. Locate the album from any of those sources, right click on the image and save it to the desktop, once it's there drag it to the iTunes artwork pane. Once you've added the artwork you can either delete the original file or keep it in a folder somewhere in case you need to use it again. Alternatively there are programs like these that help locate artwork: iTunes Art Importer or MP3 Tag
    If you have a scanner you can create your own artwork files by scanning the CD cover itself, this is particularly useful when you are dealing with rare recordings.

  • Unable to remove album artwork

    I have a 30gb photo and was intrigued by adding the album artwork. I added it for two albums and realized that I really don't care about having on after all. I've tried removing it and now what I get on every single song on my ipod is a large blank box that I cannot remove. I just want to get back to the progress bar and song title.
    Any suggestions would be helpful. I'm running I-Tunes version 5.0.1.4.
    thanks!

    OK Melody,
    I have juts tried this and it worked on my 60GB iPod Photo.
    Under edit>preferences ipod tab music tab take check (tick) mark out of the box that says "Display album art on your iPod"
    The status box in the top of iTunes told me it was deleting artwork.
    When I disconnected the iPod I no longer had any artwork.
    If this is not working on yours I would suggest that you restore the iPod and reload your songs (make sure you have back up copies somewhere other than the iPod first as a restor ewill wipe teh iPod clean)

  • Unable to paste album artwork to selected albums

    I've noticed that, for some of my albums in iTunes, I am not able to set any album artwork. I can copy it (from the web) or download an image (jpg), but even though I paste or add it, the artwork does not stick.
    I've also noticed that some of the tracks *do not* allow me to add artwork at all (the Artwork tab is greyed out).
    Any ideas on why?
    Thanks,
    Michael Frankel
    Agoura Hills, CA

    I only just noticed that I've got the exact same problem. So far I've only found one example, but that's because I just don't feel like going through my entire library just to see how bad this is.
    In my case, iTunes simply deleted the artwork from an album that's been in my library for about a year already, and it steadfastly refuses to let me paste it back in.
    Frankly, for an app that always functioned perfectly in the past, these bugs are starting to get irritating. I haven't yet had time to correct all the track info that had characters altered by the last iTunes update, and now this. What is going on?

  • Unable to display album artwork on iPod nano

    I was able to download music to my iPod nano successfully, however, the album artwork does not come with it and appear on the screen. the artwork shows up on iTunes, but not on the iPod. what should i do?

    Besa, I was able to download the album artwork to my iPod nano by restarting it. I have no idea what caused the problem, but at least I was able to fix it. Just press and hold the Menu and Center button at the same time for about 5 seconds, and then it will reset itself. I hope this helps!

  • How can i transfer album artwork to itunes

    can someome help me i have got some album artwork but cant seem to be able to put it on to itunes?

    There are various methods of adding artwork to your songs and albums.
    If you have an iTunes store account, you can use the "get album artwork" option in iTunes. You don't actually need to purchase anything from the iTunes store, just to have or create an account. Provided that the album or song for which you are looking to add artwork is available for sale in the store, iTunes will find it and add it to your library.
    If you go to preferences/general in iTunes and check the box marked "automatically download missing album artwork", it will automatically add the artwork when you import a CD into iTunes.
    You must have the album or song tagged in your iTunes library correctly or it may not be found. For instance, even a missing "The" before the artists name can throw up anomalies. iTunes will check each song in your iTunes library and attempt to match it up with a song in the iTunes Store. If the data matches, iTunes will download the album artwork from the iTunes Store and add it to the song in your iTunes library.
    If you don't have an account or don't want to create one, here are a couple of other methods.
    Highlight a song or album in iTunes, then right click on it and select the "get album artwork" option.

Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images. 

Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image". 

When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes. 

Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste. 

    In the unlikely event that Google can’t find an image, you can also get artwork from Amazon.
    If you’re happy using images from Amazon, and don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a free program to do it for you.
    And for Macs, there's Album Art Widget.
    You can set this to find art from Amazon, Google and elsewhere, automatically add artwork to songs, rate songs, and a bunch of other stuff.
    One of the coolest widgets around.
