Upload artwork to podcast
How do I upload an image to my podcast?
You need to upload the image, which should be 1400 x 1400 px, to your server, and then add its URL either to the 'itunes:image' tag in the feed, or (as you are presumably not hand-writing the feed) add it into the program or online service you are using in the space they provide for the URL. Then republish the feed: it will take the iTunes Store some days before the image appears.
Note that this concerns the image seen in the Store, not the image seen when subscribing. That's not referenced in the feed, but has to be actually embedded in the episode media file - please see this page:

I have an issue with ITunes match. Every time I get to the stage "uploading artwork and remaining songs" after 5-10 items have been uploaded I get the following error message :
"ITunes as stopped working. a problem caused the program to stop working correctly."
_ Windows 7 (up to date)
_ ITunes => up to date => 11.0.2.26
_ I've already re-installed ITunes and all his components => same issue
_ this error only appear at the stage "uploading artwork and remaining songs"
errors found in Windows logs :

When I run the Network Diagnostics in iTunes. And I got the following error :
"Secure link to iTunes Store failed".
So I followed this tread and this is what I tried so far :
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3911927?start=0&tstart=0
ipconfig /flushdns => same issue
netsh winsock reset => same issue
Followed the kb TS4123 => no other Winsock Providers that Bonjour
SFC /SCANNOW => same issue
ipconfig /release => same issue
ipconfig /renew => same issue
netsh winsock reset catalog => same issue
After doing all this tests when I run the Network Diagnostics I still get the same error :
"Secure link to iTunes Store failed".
The strange thing is that I tried to start again the ITunes match and it's seems to work so far. 41 items uploaded and no crash so far (before it was always crashing before I could reach 10 upload). -
Okay, so after I let iTunes automatically find artwork for me and there were several blanks, I managed to figure out how to manually upload artwork. But for a few tracks, I can't do anything, it's grayed out. Like this
- and I can't edit it at all. How do I fix this?It looks as though those files are in a format that cannot have artwork added. Are they in .wav format? If so, you can either convert the files to a compatible format, such as AAC or MP3, or re-import the music to your iTunes Library in a format that can handle artwork.

Form handler that will enable contributors to upload artwork?
Hi - I am involved in the creation of a site that requires
contributors to upload artwork to us. I have seen this done on
another site but cannot work out how (if) this can be done using
dreamweaver alone. Does anyone have any experience of this sort of
thing? A point in the right direction would be extremely helpful as
we are talking to people worldwide and don't want to rely upon
email or snailmail..
The link to the site already using this is
this
site
Thanks very much
EmmaHi Emmahatt,
The form action does not look right to me... it took me to a
"redirect
page" which apparently don't work?
Another thing... you really needs to protect your form with
more than
JS. I could submit your form with JS turned off and spam bots
don't care
about JS protection. A safe way to have your form used as a
spam relay.

Is It posible to get album artwork for podcasts?
Hi ,
I wass wondering is it possible to get album artwork for podcasts and how do you do that?
Thanks for your help,
lizablerArtwork for podcasts is inserted by the creator of the podcast. You can add artwork to a podcast if it doesn't have it already, but you would have to do this every time you download a new podcast. Highlight the podcast and go to File>Get Info>Artwork tab if you would like to add artwork.

Uploading artwork and remaining songs for one year now
I was just charged for my second year of Match. This entire time the iMac has been on Step 3: Uploading artwork and remaining songs. Will this never end? Progress bar fills up, then goes back to blank saying 0 of 6 items uploaded. Another says 2564 songs are now available in iCloud, then that goes away, then comes back. Aside from that, I do have music available on my AppleTV, so it's apparently working to some degree. But what I can't figure is why it doesn't stop loading.
Hi,
Add iCloud status to song view. This will show the tracks that are "Waiting". You may have a corrupt track. Copy the tracks to desk top and delete from library.
Next, Try holding shift key whilst signing out of match. Close iTunes and relaunch. Turn on match. You will be asked to add this computer, do so. Wait for process to complete.
Now see if tou can readd those tracks.

After I have downloaded my music,I tried to upload the artwork from my computer,but it wouldn't apply.I have tried a few times,I even tried to upload the artwork to only one song,the same thing happened.Please help,thank you.
You cannot apply your own artwork to .wav files. If that isn't the issue try Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows.

Add link to artwork in podcast?
Hello,
I would like to add links to my artwork window / chapters on my podcast. Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks so much.The podcast image which appears in the Store page has a URL which is referenced in the feed in the 'itunes:image' tag so you can use that as a link. The images which appear when you subscribe to and select or play an episode are actually embedded in the media, and there is no way to link to them or to individual chapters in an m4a file, only the file itself.

Upload Artwork to Gracenote?
I have musician friends who've published several professional CDs, but Gracenote doesn't have them listed yet. I'm adding track names in myself, but I can't see how to add artwork for the album covers so that others will receive it along with the tracks. No response from Gracenote itself.
Anybody know if I can upload cover art from the CD to Gracenote for the general public to receive?
Thanks.Jeff--
Sorry, I realize Gracenote does not hold cover art,
but iTunes does. I assume Apple monitors this group???
Actually, these are user-to-user forums, and Apple doesn't monitor them from the standpoint of answering questions or getting feedback.
As for the artwork, the artwork is stored in the music file itself. That's why iTunes can't change the artwork on certain files, there's no mechanism for saving it in the file itself.
If you buy a track from the iTunes Music Store, the artwork is already loaded in the file by the record company or whoever sent the song file to the iTunes Music Store.
For songs taken off CD, iTunes currently doesn't have a way to automatically get artwork for tracks. The end user would have to have some kind of plug-in or script for that. Since Gracenote doesn't store the artwork, and it's not part of the CD itself, iTunes has no place to get the artwork.

Artwork from podcasts is getting mixed into other music
I started downloading podcasts recently, and shortly afterwards I found this problem. The artwork that comes with podcasts is getting mixed into my album artwork and vice-versa. This is only happening on my iPod, not on my computer. In iTunes, the artwork is with the correct files. The only way I've found to fix this problem is to:
a)delete the artwork from iTunes
b)sync my iPod
c)attach the artwork back onto the file
d)sync my iPod again
It only happens with some albums, in a random pattern. Anyone else have this problem? If so, is there a permanent fix? I've got the latest version of iTunes.Known but rare problem. No known fix.
There is no need to delete the artwork from iTunes. Just change setting for iPod, sync, turn on artwork option again, sync again. -
Changing hosts, artwork and podcast description.
I currently have a podcast on iTunes that was until recently hosted using Audio Acrobat. I've discontinued that podcast and will be starting a new podcast using Blog Talk Radio (BTR) as my new host.
The new podcast on BTR will be different in brand and scope than the old/existing podcast. What I want to do is change the artwork, description, delete the old shows (that seems easy enough) and yet keep the existing iTunes feed.
Is it as easy as entering the existing iTunes feed that I have into the spot where BTR asks for it, or do I need to submit a new RSS URL to iTunes and start over with a new feed. The BTR people were not able to help on this.
Also, just how does a person update the podcast info if they're not going to this extreme? Does it automatically update if you change it on the host page at BTR, or wherever one might host?
Thanks!
DaveiTunes takes all the information from the feed. If you keep the feed at the same URL, change the title and all the episodes, then after a day or two the changes will be reflected in the Store (just as episodes can be added and others removed without having to resubmit, you just change the feed).
If you wanted to move the feed to a different server while keeping the podcast the same, there is a definite procedure for this:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/whatson/podcasts/specs.html#changing
Note that this entails leaving the old feed in place until the change has been registered.
If you want to change the name and scope of the podcast, and change the feed URL, then frankly you will find it easier to start over from scratch and submit the new feed as a new Podcast. -
Please help! - Artwork for podcast doesn't show up in iTunes store.
Hi there - My artwork doesn't show up in the iTunes store.
Artwork shows up fine in the downloaded episodes, but in the store, only the "plain" podcast icon shows up. It's been nearly a week.
-I published my feed with Feeder and host it on my site
-Feedburner pulls it in
-I submitted it myself in iTunes (using the feedburner feed-need it for stats)
-I have been approved, and people have started subscribing.
-Feed has been vetted, and appears to be ok.
iTunes link: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=3485...
Feedburner Link: http://feeds.feedburner.com/meetingwithmasters
True feed: feed://bonehead.us/mwm.xml
Please help!
Thanks!
DrJThe image is correctly referenced in the feed and there is an image at that URL. Some people have found that it takes some time for the image to appear, even after the podcast itself has been approved and appeared in the Store. so I should give it another few days.

Uploading artwork to existing tracks on iPod
I have already uploaded my music from iTunes to my iPod, but have now used a third-party application to add artwork to all the albums in iTunes. How do I upoload this to the iPod - do I need to delete all the music on the iPod and upload it all again with the artwork?
it is funny how pople will just say something just
for the sake of getting those prestige points!!!....
what are you talking about??
Having sauid that that, the previous poster did not
realized that you are using windows. copying and
pasting album art in windows xp and itunes directly
in the tracks stored in the ipod is hit and miss at
best.
you DO NOT add artwork to the ipod, you add it to the songs in the Library, not on the ipod itself or the ipod list
it does not matter whether you are using Windows or the Mac OS - the procedure is the same
Believe me. I have tried to do this directly and it
did not work. another piece of advice, create a
playilist that you then sync automatically with your
ipod.This is the easiest way to make sure that your
ipod syncs automatically and the album art copies
properly in windows.
open iTunes
select a track in the Library
go to the Edit menu
select Show Artwork
a box will appear in the lower left corner of iTunes
paste your artwork in the box
if you purchase music from iTMS, they come with album artwork
if you are ripping your own CDs, some come with it, others do not - for the ones that do not, you can go to Amazon or some other site to copy the album artwork and then paste it as noted above -
Hello,
I use podcasts on a daily basis. I have 8 different podcasts. Only, one of the podcasts' artwork showed up. I tried the "Get Album Artwork" button. Then, I tried "Clear Downloadeud Artwork" and then "Get Album Artwork". It still did not work. I tried unsubscribing, deleting and then subscribing and that did not work. I updated iTunes, that did not work. I would like the artwork with my podcasts. Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you."Get album artwork" does not work for Podcasts, nor will your other attempts.
Artwork is added by the Podcast producer. Often they do not add it to episodes, but simply to the programme series that is displayed in the Store. Each epsiode can have its own artwork, therefore artwork needs to be added to each individual episode.
Podcasts are simply listed in the iTunes Store, they are not downloaded from the Store and therefore, you do not obtain them from the Store. They are downloaded from the Podcast producer's servers. So this is not something that Apple/iTunes controls, it's down to the Podcast producers.
