Where is artwork stored?

Where on my Mac can I find the artwork I've downloaded?
Can I use these images for other programs?
Can I select this folder for my screensaver?
I've searched in the Library but cannot find.

Don't you already have an iTunes album art screensaver?<<</div>
Well, every once in a while a screensaver pops up with minis of the album art that flip around. Problem is, I don't know where this screensaver comes from. I cannot locate its source. I opened System prefs but could not see what folder this info was contained in or what controlled the screensaver. A big mystery.
"From within iTunes, drag the artwork you want onto the desktop, and you will get a clipping containing it. Drag this clipping into an application to paste the artwork into it."
While that will technically work, it will also create a file that is unnecessarily large, and of lower quality than the image that iTunes is using.
The following two Apple Scripts do a much better job:
dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php?page=1#savealbumart
dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php?page=1#embedart<<
Thanks for the suggestions but shouldn't I just keep a folder with all the original files I downloaded to use as album art (I have not downloaded any art from within iTunes. I download it seperately and drag it into iTunes. So I still have the originals). I was just trying to avoid having two seperate sources of the album art on my machine. And I was curious about locating that screensaver so I could turn it on or off.<br>

  • Where is iTunes storing my album artwork?

    Running:
    OS X 10.9 Mavericks
    iTunes 11.1.3
    All of my 500+ albums in iTunes have artwork, however my Album Artwork folder on my mac is empty and has no photos.
    I've looked in iTunes media and all other files and I can't find it anywhere.
    (I want to select it as a folder to share with my Apple TV and use it as a screensaver)
    Is there anyway I can trace the file location to find out where iTunes is storing all of my artwork?

    If they are stored there, they are encrypted anyway, so you would not be able to use them.
    When looking through the idividual song files under itunes I can't find anything that isn't in an audio format. There are no jpegs, png, etc.
    They are actually embedded in the song files.  To get at it, right-click the track in the library, Get Info, go to the Artwork tab, and you should see it.  You can do a Copy from there.

  • Where is the artwork stored?

    Simple simple one....
    After you add the artwork in itunes.. what happens if you move the library?
    Is the artwork stored in the actual library file or where!?!?!?!
    Just cannot see where the image files are stored...
    Does thatmake sense?
    Thanks in advance.

    Right click on a song and choose Get Info, then choose the Artwork tab. The Artwork tab shows all album art and from there you can select the image and copy it by choosing Edit>Copy. Then you can paste that image into a photo editing program.

  • ITunes Artwork stored WHERE?!

    I've amassed a large body of downloaded artwork in my iTunes library over the past few months, and am keen to preserve it whilst I reinstall my XP Service Pack 1 operating system in order to upgrade it to SP2.
    However, I cannot for the life of me find out where it is stored on my PC!
    And now I learn that iTunes will no longer allow access to artwork for tunes that you haven't bought from the iTunes Store!
    The artwork is clearly downloaded into my computer, but stored where..?
    There's nothing in the Preferences and nothing in the iTunes folder.
    Can anyone tell me where iTunes stores downloaded artwork, and how I can save all previously downloaded artwork and reinstate it once my HDD has been blanked and the OS has been reinstalled.
    I await your collective learned insights.
    Thank you all.
    Regards,
    Dave G.

    P.S. Everyone:
    I DON'T USE MP3 files!
    I find they are very noisy and give me a splitting headache!
    Plus, they cannot be edited without further aural loss.
    They seem to be the modern replacement for compact cassette
    (i.e. NOT for the discerning listener!)
    I use only AIFF, WAV or BWF files.
    Nice!

  • I scanned some black and white negatives into my computer (iMac) where they were stored aas positives on the hard disc. When I import them to iPhoto they turn back into negatives. How do I change them into positives for printing?

    I have scanned some black and white negatives into my computer(iMac) where they are stored on the hard disc as positives.When I import them into iPhoto to print they turn back into negatives.How do I turn them back into positives?

    That's because you scanned them as B/W photos and iPhoto 08 doesn't support the grayscale color profile.  You can either rescan them as color photos or export them as originals out of iPhoto to a folder on the desktop and applhy this Automator application, Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB Profile, on them and then remimport into iPhoto. You can download it from  Toad's Cellar .  Be sure to read the warning on the website about not applying it on your only copies.

  • I am having trouble printing cd inserts since i upgraded to iTunes 10.2.1.1, I get a black block where the artwork is supposed to print... help!

    Anyone have an answer for why since I upgraded to iTunes 10.2.1.1 I can no longer print artwork on my CD inserts - the text prints fine, but I get a black block of ink where the artwork should be...

    This problem disappeared with a later version BUT it has reappeared with 11.02.26 again. Maybe they put the old code back! This really is getting quite ridiculous where iterations are not fully tested before they are released. Very poor professionalism indeed.

  • Beginners question - making sense of form, item, pane & variable (with relation to where data is stored in the SQL database)

    Hi Everyone,
    I am new to writing reports (SQL code) for SAP, however I am aware that inside SAP Business One it is necessary to enable System Information (from the View menu) in order to see which tables (and related table attributes / column names) are related to various aspects of the various SAP 'modules' (e.g.: A/R Invoice).
    Using an A/R Invoice as an example I can see at the row (or line) level that an item with the description of 'Opening Balance Transfer' is contained in the table INV1, within the attribute (or column) called Dscription.
    However not every 'on screen object' shows a table / attribute. For example in the same A/R Invoice if I hover my mouse over the Balance Due field all I see is Form related information.
    My question is 'How do I make sense of the Form, Item, Pane, Variable information?', with relation to where data is stored within the SQL database?
    Links to online tutorials explaining how this feature of SAP Business One will be much appreciated, along with any personal advice regarding working with this information.
    Any (and all) help will be greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    David

    Hi David,
    1.Here I am explaining use of each field except pane
    a. Form ---> Used in additional authorization creator
    b. Item, column--->Useful in creating Formatted search queries (FMS)
    c. Variable --> Some of the field values based on another values. ie. indirect values.
    d. INV1---Table name
    2. How to get variable?
    As per your second attachment, to get balance due ,you need doc total field from OINV table. For example,
    SELECT T0.[DocNum], T0.[DocTotal] FROM OINV T0 WHERE T0.[DocNum] = 612004797
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Upgraded to Creative Cloud from elements 9 where images are stored in Organizer.  How do I bring them into Creative Cloud and should I download them to Lightroom, Bridge, or Photoshop itself?  Any suggestions?

    It's important to keep in mind that the picture files are NOT stored in the Organizer. They are not stored in Lightroom or Bridge either...
    The organizer is based on a catalog which stores the pictures properties, mainly the location of the pictures on your drive(s). It's the same idea of catalogs in Lightroom, and the nice thing is that Lightroom can convert organizer catalogs to its own format. The most obvious way for you will be to use Lightroom.
    Bridge is a file browser which is a different way than to use catalogs.

  • Where are services stored in Tiger?

    When I drag down an application's menu, particularly Finder, I see a list of 31 services (in some applications some services are greyed out). Many are for third party applications I rarely use.  I have looked in:
    ~/Library/Services --does not exist
    /System/Library/Services --has a couple of Apple system services but there's a lot more such as Script Editor which are not there.
    /Library/Services --contains a single third party service
    Where were services stored in Tiger OS and how do I remove ones I am not likely to use such as ClamXAV?  I poked around the insides of an application package or two and didn't see them listed there (at least not obviously).

    I still don't know where they are stored, some web site had mention of launchd. but I did find this:
    ServicesScrubber - http://manytricks.com/servicescrubber/ - manage Finder Services in pre-OSX10.6 (free)
    I kind of suspect services are hidden in the applications themselves, probably under some cryptic identifier. I have a few instances of multiple copies of an application on my computer and I noticed when using ServiceScrubber (SS) it sometimes flagged multiple occurrences of a service. In addition when I ran SS it took a bit of time to scan for services which makes me suspect it was doing a general drive scan of my multiple drives (some extra application copies are on different drives) rather than taking a look at just one or two targeted Services folders.
    It seems Apple made services a lot more up-front and manageable post Leopard (kind of a very strange thing for Apple to do given its post-Tiger trend towards its current mother-knows-best attitude).  There was mention of a "Services Manager" utility that I saw mentioned on a site dating from 2003 which suggested it was a very early utility but I could only find solid mention of it in a Mountain Lion or something version.  It seems it wasn't a very well advertised utility (kind of like all the goodies tucked away in Core Services folder) and was maybe something you had to download specially, and has now vanished for good into the dark pits of edgesuite.

  • Where are versions stored in Bridge\Adobe Drive?

    We are currently working with CQ5 \ Bridge 5 \ Drive 3. Lets say I have video file inside CQ and I want to change the version with Bridge. The new video file is a lot smaller, say 30megs less. I copy the new old file over using Bridge and add it as a version. I can now revert back to the old version if I want to or just use the new one. The question is where is the larger file stored? I don't see it in the DAM any more, only see the new smaller file however. If I check the actual file inside the var\dam in CQ I can see variations but I don't know if these are the actual files.
    What I'm getting at is that if I need to replace say 400 larger video files with smaller ones are the large ones still stored some place on the CQ server and would I manual have to delete them? I just need to know where those extra files are stored.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the help. I was unable to find the "show package content" option inside the windows version of Bridge. For whatever reason it only seems to be a Mac option.

    The only file there is the newer version. So, that all comes back to my original quesiton what happens to the original file? Where is it stored. Is it cached some place on the CQ server and I need to delete the original from the versions?
    I'm afraid I don't have an answer for that. Don't know how CQ works but in general creating a new and smaller version should leave the original untouched.
    But I come to think of it as same behavior as in Lightroom, Aperture or iPhoto that uses a library structure.
    Don't know if you are on Mac or Windows. But on a Mac you can select this library file that itself shows only the icon (mostly in default picture or movie folder). But if used with large amount of files it can grow to quit a size. Using right mouse click gives the option to show package content and that reveals several folders with amongst them an original or master folder that contains the originals. (if you find them don't move them to other locations but copy, otherwise you can loose the functionality in CQ
    Hope this helps you on the right track.

  • Where are items stored in print queue?

    I held documents in print queue for several weeks while I had my printer packed for moving. System still backed up using Time Machine during this time. Before I reconnected printer, in trying to resolve another issue, I used Onyx software and deleted the cache (which apparently included the print queue). Now I want to recover the documents in the print queue from my time Machine back up but I am unable to find them.
    Where does OS X 10.6 put the data to print documents from the print queue? What is the name of the file or folder where they are stored?

    tomfromflagstaff wrote:
    Yes, I assume that the CUPS job is what caused my difficulty.
    And they are gone.
    As I mentioned, I only tried Onyx in 10.7.x.  Deleting the cache for the CUPS jobs did not actually remove a print job I had spooled.  I was able to "see" the file beginning the the "d" in /private/var/spool/cups and move it to my Desktop. 
    Did you try the Terminal comand I had in my last post to see if there are any files in the spool directory?  You will not be able to see the files themselves as even administrators do not have enough privileges to view that directory.  The best you can do is use the sudo command to list the files.
    The long and short of it is that if the files are not in /private/var/spool/cups, they are gone.
    If I understand you correctly, restoring my system to the Time Machine back-up prior to performing this maintenance will not restore my system to it's state (including these print files) at the time of the back-up? How can that be? My understanding was that Time Machine backed-up everything.
    Are there other vital files that Time Machine does not back up?
    That is my understanding based on what I see in 10.7.x.  Time Machine does not back up any caches or any of the files in /private/var/spool/cups.  Time Machine will also not back up any other caches or system logs.  I don't have a list of what it does not back up.  I am not even sure if there is such a list available to users.
