Why won't my album artwork for my purchases show in the album list?

I've been tidying up my iTunes library and trying to get all my albums showing their artwork with it.  For some reason my purchased albums do not display their album artwork in the albums list, but if I click on the album the artwork displays then.  All of my music that has come from my own music collection displays the album artwork in the list and when I pull up the album.  How can I fix this?  It drives me nuts!

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:                                 
iOS: How to back up           
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • ITunes can't get album artwork for songs iTunes has in the store... how do i fix this?

    i have a bunch of songs that either have the wrong album artwork or none at all.  the weirdest thing is that some of the albums are SOLD on iTunes. in fact, if i highlight one of my songs in iTunes, Ping sees it and shows me the correct cover art. BUT when i click "get album artwork", it tells me it cannot find the artwork. i've tried matching the text (song title, album title, artist, genre) exactly as it is in iTunes, but that doesn't help. it is doing this for about 60 of my albums and i don't know how to fix it. how can i get it to find the artwork?
    also... when iTunes finds the WRONG artwork, how can i direct it to the correct one?

    Albums, artists and complications must match precisely for iTunes to get a hit.  If you have a compilation, chances are you have a 'various artists' for an album artists ... there is a bit of a science to it.  I've managed to get most of my 'picky ones' to match.  But I have some that just won't - for whatever reason.

  • How can I get ITUNES to display manually added artwork for each song regardless of the album name?

    I have been manually adding artwork to my songs. When I click the Show Artwork check box, it doesn't show the cover art. For example some greatest hits albums have different cover art per track. ITUNES picks one of the cover art and shows it for the entire album grouping.
    Anyway around this? I want the added cover art to display per song.

    The artwork of each individual track does display during playback, in the small thumbnail at the top of the iTunes window, or at the left of the MiniPlayer control (opens by clicking the thumbnail), or the larger artwork panel that is shown if you click on the Show Large Artwork control in the MiniPlayer. It should also display on any iPod or iOS Now Playing view.
    The Up Next list uses the album art (usually cover of the first track) for everything from the same album, which is perhaps a shame, although in general one artwork per album makes sense.

  • Why won't my ipod even let me go on to the wifi list?

    I have had my ipod touch now for over 2 years now and i have no problems before. Then itunes requested me to restore my ipod so i did. However when it had finished and i wanted to reconnect to my internet it wouldn't let me even press the opition which you press to have a look at the wifi that are in my area. It  was grey and said no wifi. Please help me!!!!!!

    Not a good sign.  See:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    Frequently it is due to a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why wont my iTunes download the album artwork for the cd's that I import?

    I'm a new Mac owner so I may be overlooking something simple. I have imported a few CD's succesfully but when i select "Preferences" and "Get Album Artwork" a message comes up that says "Could not get album artwork". I have looked in the itunes store to see if they have the album and its there... so why wont iTunes import the artwork to the albums i have imported? Thanks!

    Where else can I get this?
    On the World Wide Web!
    iTunes will find the artwork if the album is available in the iTunes Store and your metadata precisely matches the Store data, in every respect (spaces, punctuation, spelling).
    If iTunes does not get the art, simply use a web search to find the correct image.
    To paste an image into a song file, highlight the file, use the command File > Get Info, open the Artwork tab, and drag the image into the space for art (or use Copy/Paste).

  • Why dosen't I Tunes print the album artwork for jewell case inserts anymore

    Why dosen't I Tunes print the album artwork for jewell case inserts anymore. The artwork shows up but only prints a black square instead of the artwork?

    I had this problem too. It has now been fixed in the latest update 11.0.1.12, and works like a charm again !

  • Why does iTunes spend ages processing album artwork for no apparent reason?

    I have a 65,000+ files on assorted drives. I tag in another ap, so I don't use iTunes to get artwork. However, everytime I add files to my playlist it insists on "processing album artwork" for every file, even if there isn't any, or if the files are being re-added after being moved to a different drive. What is iTunes up to, & is there any way of disabling it?
    On a related note, it would be really useful if iTunes could be set to search certain folders for altered, moved or deleted files & update the library automatically. Any chance this could be introduced in a future version?

    No, it isn't! Maybe I should check it, then restart iTunes, uncheck it again & restart iTunes again. Might be worth a try.

  • Itunes continually trying to downlaod album artwork for same 2184 tracks

    I have around 11,000 tracks in my Itunes library. Whenever I add more tracks, as soon as Itunes has processed the new songs, it trys to quote "process album artwork" for the same 2184 tracks each and every time. All the tracks have album artwork, so I'm at at loss to explain why Itunes keeps referencing the same songs every time. It makes no difference whether the option to Automatically Dowload Album Artwork" is enabled or not from the EDIT>Preferences menu. Any ideas?

    I am having the same problem and it looks like a lot of others are also.

  • HELP - Album artwork for songs jumbled up!!!

    I took so much time getting album artwork for each of 2000 songs in iTunes expecting them to transfer to 5th Generation iPod and was soooo disappointed when they came up jumbled. I know I'm anal but I like the look!!! The videos come out OK, it's just the tunes.
    My iPod is up to date with latest software. Any others with the same problem and some possible solutions? I have completely erased all songs/videos on the iPod and done an Automatic Update from iTunes and they still come up jumbled. I have tried to pick them out one at a time and getting very frustrated.
    Thanks!

    Does the album art show-up correctly for each song in the lower left-hand corner of the iTunes window on your computer? Did you drag the art to that window to add it, or did add it through the tab under Get Info?

  • Cannot Download Album Artwork for Albums I Know Exist on iTunes.

    Hi.
    Recently I decided to clear all of my album artwork. I selected all of my albums and right clicked on an album, selected "get info," checked the box next to "artwork," and clicked "ok."
    With all of the albums already selected I successfully downloaded all of the art except for 20 albums.
    For some reason I cannot download the album artwork for twenty albums I know are available on iTunes.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    -Thanks

  • Getting album artwork for CD's

    Yo, one more question, I have all my CD's in iTunes. However, none of them have artwork. Is there any good third party software/ way to easily get album artwork for all my CD's thanks!

    The best app for adding artworks to hundreds of tracks at a time is iTunify:

    It lets you import & export artwork from/to image files on your HD with ease!

  • Having trouble getting album artwork for CDs that ARE in Music Store

    I've got about 300 of my own CDs (not purchased through ITMS) on my computer and iTunes 7 only downloaded about 20 covers automatically. I have gone through and made sure all of my albums and artists are spelled correctly as well as putting all of the years of the releases.
    I can not get any of the album artwork to download.
    Also, the iTunes mini store doesn't open. When I click show mini-store, only a bold line on the bottom of the screen comes up, but the mini store does not open all the way.

    When iTunes 7 was first released the iTunes store got swamped by people updating their artwork (like yourself), this meant it would often only manage to do a few albums at a time. In this situation telling it to try again (and again) was the solution.
    However by now the number of users hitting the store should be lower and this less of a problem.
    Another problem that affects me and others, is that the "Get Album Artwork" command only seems to search the US iTunes store (even if your account is logged in to a different country), this means that at best you might get the wrong artwork, and sometimes no artwork at all. Of course you are apparently in Florida and therefore would want to use the US store and so not be affected by this problem.
    I see you have the misfortune to be using Windows XP, and even worse a Dull Inspiron! You might want to check to see if your firewall [you are using a firewall aren't you?] is interfering with iTunes contacting the iTunes store.
    Rather than using the "Get Album Artwork" command in the "Advanced" menu, try instead selecting a single album, and right clicking and then selecting "Get Album Artwork" from the pop-up menu.
    It might help if you give an example of a problematic album/artist/track name. Also can you confirm the format the track is in? WAV does not support embedded artwork for example.
