Weird Album Art Cover Bahavior - won't update a few albums - HELP.

I have a weird issue that keeps coming up. I have 7.3 loaded - same thing used to happen on all other versions and it's really bugging me.
I have album art for all of my albums now except 2. One is Boards of Canada and another is Paul McCartney. When I tell iTunes to look for album art - it says it's not available. Fine - so I go to "get info" for a track, go to the art tab, hit add and add in the album art I've downloaded - it will then show in the lower left pane for "now playing" - but it won't show as the main album cover in cover flow.
I've tried deleting the entire album, adding it back in - updating album art for the whole album or track at a time, no go - no matter what I do I can't get it to show.
Sometimes during this process - it will also lock up my pc and I'll have to re-boot too.
Any ideas?

Select all tracks in the album. Drag and drop the desired image file directly on the "Drag Album Art Here" box in the lower left corner of the main iTunes window.
Note: To avoid a clutter problem, you first should select all tracks on the album, right-click, select Get Info, and check the box next to the (hopefully empty) Artwork box and then click OK. As long as the Artwork box is/was empty, this will clear out all the old artwork before you add the art following the simple instructions in the first paragraph above.

My apps won't update! Someone please help:(:(:(

I got my iPhone 4S at the end of July so it is fairly new. I have updated a couple of apps before and it was fine, but within the past couple of weeks my apps are having trouble updating, whenever I click 'Update All' it asks me to enter my Apple ID then the bar shows up on the app for a couple of seconds then disappears then it just starts all over again.
I would like to avoid doing a factory reset.
I've searched all over the internet to try and sort this, and I don't know what else I can try.
I have tried:
Turning my phone off/on several times
Signing out of the App Store then back in again several times
Syncing my phone to my laptop and updating them through iTunes (on iTunes it just says that there are no apps that need to be updated)
Done a reset
Turned the date forward then back again
Would be so grateful if someone had some answers and could help me out- this is so annoying, it's taking over my life!:(

hello,
same problem with Lumia 620. Issue started right after an automatic SW upgrade. Problem happens both in celular and WiFi connections. Soft reset / hard reset didn't solve the issue either.
Current OS version (after reset) is 8.0.10517.150
progress in the phone when trying to download and install and app looks like the download ends ok but the installation can't be completed. Problem happens with ANY app from the store, not only Nokia ones.
message: "We're having trouble installing this app. Tap and hold the item, then tap Retry..." No error code presented.
please let me know any suggestion. I'm running out of ideas down here...
thank you

IPod recognized on Mac computer but won't update!!! HELP!

I recently changed my computer from a Windows to a Macbook, and when I plug in my ipod it recognizes it on ITunes, and it comes up and everything, but then when I click "Update songs on Sarah's ipod" it doesn't do anything! What do I do??

There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. I use Senuti but check the others out and choose whichever you are happy with. Once you have the missing files in iTunes you could restore your iPod on the Mac which will reformat it with the Mac file system and update from your reloaded library.

Songs won't update...Please Help!

Hello.
I have had my WINDOWS XP Home Edition for about 2 years now and I have never had any problem with iTunes before.
But I recently got a Windows XP Professional Edition Laptop (Dell Inspiron E1705) and I hooked my iPod Mini up to it, put all the songs on there and I realized I had to authorize it to that computer which i havent done yet seeing as how it can't hook up to the internet yet. The only way the songs that I have taken form Cd's onto my iPod mini can play is if the iPod is connected. I couldnt play my purchased songs at all until i authorize it.
So I took it off of that computer, and I then downloaded a song off of the Music Store.
I then tried to update my songs from my desktop to the iPod and a message popped up saying "The iPod "Sarina's iPod" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist"
Now I then took my ipod, scrolled through my playlists....they are all still there. They do exist. I then looked at my Playlist on the desktop,and they are all there. the same except for the 2 songs i downloaded that couldnt go onto the iPod mini.
I tried restarting my iPod and it still pops up with the same message.
If anyone has any ideas, it would be so appreciated!

I then tried to update my songs from my desktop to the iPod and a message popped up saying "The iPod "Sarina's iPod" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist"
while the ipod is connected and showing up in the source list, go "edit > preferences" and click the "ipod" tab.
you will currently have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected. scroll through the list of playlists beneath that, and compare them with the playlists that you have showing up in in your itunes sourcelist.
if you find any that do not appear in your itunes sourcelist, uncheck them.

Firefox won't update

Firefox seems to be stuck and won't update. Under the Help menu, it lists "resume downloading Firefox 3.6.3" but when I click on that option, it never resumes the download. (I don't recall pausing downloading in the first place?) Firefox never connects with the update server. As a result of not updating, Firefox is crashing and won't work properly. I restarted and had to force Firefox closed at least 4 times today.

Java Console and Microsoft.net Framework Assistant add-ons are not much needed.
Upgrade to Firefox 7.0.1

What are the other problems you are facing using Firefox 7 ??

IPhoto Library won't update

I have an old iPhoto library from iPhoto 9 that won't update to iPhoto 11 and won't open. How do I fix this or can I retrieve the photos from the old library without opening it in iPhoto?

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Cover Flow Doesn't Update

When I'm listening to my iPhone and using the shuffle feature, Cover Flow will not update the album image when one song finishes and another one begins. If I turn iPhone to vertical mode, the album image is updated.
Why doesn't it update in horizontal mode?
Has anyone else noticed this on their iPhone?
iPhone 8GB Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Yep, I save seen this (and so has other people). I submitted this through the feedback link as a bug.

Exchange unread count won't update for mailbox with 1000+ unread messages

Hi - I'm having an issue with mail on the iPhone and iPad where my Exchange inbox won't update after downloading a 1000+ new messages on Saturday. I marked them as read and moved them to another mailbox on my Mac but they're stuck in the inbox on my iPhone even after restarting phone and deleting account and re-adding it. I am able to download new messages and they are updated properly.

Things updated after I switched from check manually to check every 15 minutes. Weird.

Missing Art Cover on Movie App

Hi,
I just post here some informations regarding missing art cover in the iPad application Movie.
As I got some troubles with some missing cover despite showing correctly on iTunes, I just wanted to post the solution I found.
I found that in my case only movies with multiple resolutions were missing (like SD/HD) on my iPad 2 despite both version had the cover.
I just switched the default version to SD instead of HD (right click on the video in iTunes -> version) . iTunes did something at that time because there was some disk access.
Then I synchronised my iPad. Boom, the missing art cover shown up. I switched all missing cover movie to SD then sync. All covers appeared.
Then I just switched back to HD without any issues. It seems that iTunes is creating some cache thumbnail on the hard drive when switching default version that is then transferred to the iPad.
I lost a lot of time on this one so if it can help people with the same troubles, here is the solution.
I opened a bug at Apple so they can fix it too.
Cheers.

i'm sorry - I don't understand how you changed the version of the movie - I can't find where you changed from SD-HD. I updated my wife's ipad - the movies play just fine, but the cover artwork disappeared - help!

I have two apps on my app store that won't update. I don't need them. How can I remove them from there? Thank you!

Hey
I have two apps on my Mac App Store that won't update no matter what I do.
One of them is not even mine. It shows a weird russian email address that does not belong to me.
The other one says "updated" but won't go away from the updates list no matter what I do (Reboots, etc).
How can I erase them? I need niether apps.
Thank you very much.
Instalada = Installed & Actualizar = Update

Hey!
There are two things here. The first one is that the apps aren't of course hacked/pirated. The mac is of a friend of mine. She's 65 or something and has no idea on how to hack apps, plus, afaik, nobody else has access to her computer.
Secondly, the thing is that niether app shows at the app list, and we even made a find from a terminal window, and got no results of the apps.
It is a very strange behavoir and if somebody has a solution I'll be glad to hear it.
BTW, She just upgraded her machine to OS X 10.8.1, I'll check if the upgrad fixed the bug.
Thanks!!

Playsists selected for syncing no longer exist? ipod won't update

My new ipod won't update because it says that playlists I've selected for syncing no longer exist. For this reason I can't get any of my music onto my ipod and I don't understand what I am supposed to do to fix this
dell inspiron Windows XP

Hi guys, I've been having the same problem. Specifically, when I try to transfer songs from iTunes to my iPod I get the following error message: "Songs in the iPod "My iPod" cannot be updated because all the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist". I did some searching around at this site, and found that one possible problem is that my library is larger than my iPod's capacity, so I have to eliminate some songs. I did this, but I still get the same error message.
