Why won't some imported albums get album artwork

I just bought a CD and I imported it into I-tunes and was unable to get album art work? This is a brand new CD. Any suggestions?

iTunes can only find the album art if the CD you have is also available from the iTunes Store. You also have to have the CD information (artist, album) entered into iTunes EXACTLY the same way as it is in the iTunes Store.
You can try going into your library, right-clicking on the song file and clicking Get Album Artwork.
If it's still not working, I'd recommend doing it manually.
Go online and find a picture of the CD. (Amazon usually works well for this)
Then, select all of the files in the iTunes library (either by Shift or Ctrl clicking) and click File > Get Info
You can then drag the album artwork from Amazon to iTunes.

Why won't iTunes sync album artwork to my iPhone?

Today, I plugged my iPhone 3GS into my Windows 7 (32) computer. iTunes pops up and tells me that another computer is handling my library. Long story short- My phone loses everything. I decide to take this as a oppurtunity to fine tune my phone's library and I start dragging music to my phone. All of my music appears on the phone but none of the albums include any artwork. When I select an album from the iTunes library the artwork is present. When I take that album and drag it to my phone, the artwork doesn't come with it. Why? Is there some way to get the album artwork to show up on my phone without manually adding the 204 album covers one by one?

Similar problem with the new iPad. Could not sync H.264 1080p video.
Tried to move as both video and photo but received error message both times. Confirmed CODEC was H.264. The same video rendered as H.264 720p would sync. Also, if the same video was rendered as as a MOV file (much bigger file), the file would sync.
Purchased iMovie and iPhot for iPad but they were no help. Furthermore, in iTunes, adding 1080p video for transfer to iPad using both apps seemed to work (iPad memory decreased and files appeared in iTune transfer area) but could not find the files on the iPad using any app.
Apple tech support was courteous but could not help. Bottom line: If iTunes would get out of the way, the iPad would be useable.

Please help. iTunes Won't Save My Album Artwork

OK, here’s a basic question that will probable be easy to answer. I have iTunes 8 on a MAC 10.4.11 and it won’t save my album artwork. I have a play list of 23 songs and for some reason track 21 and 22 keep rejecting the artwork I drag and drop. I have tried adding the image as both a JPG and PNG in various sizes and resolutions.

Patience! You just posted the original 30 minutes before your follow up. Give people time to find your post. Anyway...
All you did is changed the preference so that any NEW stuff you import will look up artwork. For any albums already in your library, select all the songs from the album, right click, and pick Get Album Artwork.

Why won't some of my songs, that used to sync, sync to my iPhone 5 now? There is an empty circle appearing to the left of the check marks for each of the songs that were not successfully synced.

Why won't some of my songs, that used to sync, sync to my iPhone5 now? There is an empty circle appearing to the left of the check mark in iTunes for the songs that are not properly syncing.

I've continued tests on different films, and tried my entire collection. I've found about two dozen that will play fine on the PC, but will not cooperate when streamed to either Apple TV or my iPad. I tried several more tests with the audio, and that turned out not to be a factor -- I could not replicate that on another test.
I wonder if something in the header of these files is corrupted or a flag is set incorrectly or something along those lines, as the data appears to be fine -- it's just not "handshaking" with my streaming hardware and/or the Apple Home Sharing code that powers it.
Is there any way for me to "scrub" these files and amend their headers, or get into the file and tinker with that info by hand?

Why won't some of my numbers spreadsheets from my iPad open with iCloud on my Mac (Yosemite)?

Why won't some of my numbers spreadsheets from my iPad open with iCloud on my Mac (Yosemite)? When I look at the files in FiNader there's a grey bar next to the files that won't open.

I am having the same problem. Created new spreadsheet on iPad with fresh iOS and Numbers installs (3/2015) and am unable to open this spreadsheet in iCloud in Safari on MacBook Air (all current). I get the following message:
"Sorry, something went wrong.
This spreadsheet can't be opened right now. Please try again later."
Tried reopening on Mac from iCloud and resaving; still cannot open.
Quick fix: Copying the spreadsheet content from the iPad spreadsheet to one created on the desktop recovers the ability to open it in iCloud in Safari.
Thanks.

Why won't some pdf-files open on tablet/phone?

I simply get the error saying: The document cannot be opened because it's not a valid pdf-document.
However I have no problems opening the file with my laptop, only my phone and tablet (Jellybean 4.2.2) won't open it.
My friends also have managed to open the file on their tablets (android/windows).
Have reinstalled and checked updates and tried other programs but none has worked for me.
I simply have no clue and would appreciate help.

Hey,
Seems like the problem was in the web browser I was using, as the file just
didn't download correctly.
Thanks for the help anyway, much appreciated.

Hey,
spent some time discussing this with some friends of mine and found out
that the document can be opened by downloading it to the computer and
transferring then to the tablet or phone. The difference is that when
downloading with tablet/phone I get a .pdf file, which only has some html
code. So I guess the problem has something to do with the encryption of the
file. Here are the 2 different files I get as attachments. After all this
might not have anything to do with adobe, but some other stuff I don't
really understand.

Why won't some photos or videos sync to my iPad when they work fine with iPhoto and iTunes?

Why won't some photos or videos sync to my iPad when they work fine with iPhoto and iTunes? Other photos taken with same camera sync fine from iPhoto while certain events are inexplicably incompatible. I've recently foundvthecsame occurrence with certain mp3s and videos from iTunes.

For photos try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
Not all video formats that work in iTunes are compatible with the iPad - the supported formats are (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/) :
Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
Have you tried Advanced > Create iPad Version and then sync those versions to the iPad
The iPad's supported audio formats are :
HE-AAC (V1 and V2), AAC (8 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (8 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4, Audible Enhanced Audio, AAX, and AAX+), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV

Why won't some of my songs play after upgrade to IOS5?

Why won't some of my songs play after upgrade to IOS5?

I'm confirming that after trying several other ideas, the steps outlined here by S.E.A. and Amelia P. worked perfectly. For those of you having problems with certain songs not playing, or the wrong song playing, follow their "unsynch" "resynch" process. A few notes:
Before starting, I was confident that iOS 5, iTunes 10.5, and Mac OS X 10.7.2 were all up-to-date and functioning correctly.
After selecting my Device in iTunes (an iPhone 4S in my case), then selecting the "Music" tab and unchecking "Sync Music", be sure that it actually Applies the new settings (force a synch to be sure).
After this step, most of the songs disappeared from my device (including all of the corrupted ones) but not all songs (perhaps it left those that I purchased directly on the device?). In any case, don't worry about these. Just re-check the boxes you unchecked and then be sure to force a synch again. It should take a while to complete if you've got a lot of music.
Perfection!

Apple iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.1 won't Sync all Album Artwork, some missing

Since upgrading to iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.1 from an iPhone 4 some of my Album Artwork won't appear or show up. I've read many other Apple Community Forums about the same similar issue however haven't found a resolution to the problem. I hope to make this public and find a way to fix it. All my music is 152kbps at 44100Hz and every album is fully ID3 Tagges along with all accompanied by an album artwork of exactly 600x600px. I cannot understand why some (about 10 - 12) albums artwork won't appear.
Please help! Any appreciated, thankyou!

I have the same problem. Had my phone replaced today and still doing same thing.
Only thing different lately is that Telstra unlocked my phone

Why won't all my album covers in itunes 10.5.2.11 synch on my 4th gen itouch.

About 10 of my album covers won't load from itunes to my itouch, when i try to reload album artwork it says album artwork not found but yet the album cover is there in itunes. these covers loaded on my old first gen itouch but i just got a 4th gen and like i said all the album artwork does'nt load. Anyone know . Thanks

i figured it out myself. I went to amazon.com typed in all the albums that i was missing art work and right clicked on the album cover and saved them to my computers hard drive under pictures then dragged them one at a time into itunes were the album art was missing and it saved them. Then I resynched my itouch and now I'm all set. Hope this helps others.

Importing album artwork

All of my music is in MP3 format, either ripped from CD or purchased from Amazon. I am able to download the album artwork for some albums by selecting "Get Album Artwork", however some albums show "Album artwork could not be found". Is there a way to manually import the album art (Folder.jpg) that Windows Media has downloaded into iTunes? Thanks, Thomas.

Manually? Sure, just open the containing folder, select the Folder.jpg image & click CTRL-C to copy. Now select the files in iTunes, click CTRL-I to "Get Info", paste the image into the artwork box on the Info tab and click OK.
I believe there are also programs that can automate this process but I'm far to OCD to consider using them so I've not checked any of them out.

*How to find tracks without artwork*
To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=trackswithoutartwork for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant jpeg images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, find the album in the main music folder, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.

Why won't some track information sync to my iPod?

Recently, my mom upgraded from her extremely old Sansa e250 to a 32GB iPod Touch. I'm helping her migrate her music over to her iPod. I copied her old Sansa's music onto my computer, which are all mp3 and mp4 files. I put these files into iTunes (on her laptop), and synced them over to her iPod. I then realized some files did not have album artwork, an album in the track info, and some other incorrect or missing details. So, I went into each track, corrected as necessary. Then, I ran a Get Album Artwork for all tracks, which it found for most of them. I went online to find the album artwork iTunes didn't have (some of the mp3s were ripped from old CD's, like George Clinton's Computer Games) and pasted it into track info. After the entire collection was ready to go, I synced again. I opened the Music app on the iPod, and I noticed that while the Apple artwork synced over, some track info that I edited, and the artwork I pasted in, did not. The music still plays fine, but it's kind of annoying when there's something missing or you see that music note. For example, one track was Supertramp's "Babaji". I entered in the album Crime of the Century for it. iTunes found the artwork for it, synced it over, but the album name did not. Any advice?

First a really big THANKS - I was not aware that this iPod Photo cache folder existed and it had grow to over 15 gb in size! (Now it is 3.85 gb in size).
BUT BUT-- problem not solved... Although I trashed that file and then re-synced my iPod Touch, it is still only going back to July 2009 with the events - not 12 months as I request; and none of the events that I checked prior to the previous 12 months are not on my iPod Touch, first generation running system 3.1.3 (7E18). I STILL HAVE 3.0 gb of available space on my iPod. Again, I never had this problem when 2.x was the OS for my iPod Touch.
The number of events seems to be exactly 51 - is that perhaps a limit? I don't think it would be but when I look inside the iPod Photo cache folder, there are 51 folders (plus 2 other items) and the folders are numbered from F00 to F50.
I would like to get to the bottom of this - not sure if I should start a new post or ??? Thanks again and any ideas or tests to run really appreciated!
Best regards,

Why won't some of my effects work?

when i try to apply some effects i get this:
why? also how do i fix this?
i checked in the folder and the file is there, but it won't load for some reason.

Most critically: What processor? Effects not being able to load points to an incompatible processor that lacks the necessary SSE extensions or some other feature. Often this also points to missing system extensions and DLLs that are responsible for some of that. Also provide info about your OpenGL settings and hardware. Effects may also throw errors if you are attempting to run them with acceleration, but your graphics hardware is unsuitable.
