i have a weired problem with my zen v plus also recently.
the tracks that i newly imported into my player cannot display album art, but the tracks that i imported before the problem happened stil can view album art. i try the drag and drop method with media explorer but no image pasted on it.
i have also tried to delete the exsiting track that can display album art and import again, but the result is the album cannot be displayed.
i always use media sourse to edit album art for my track and it worked perfectly until the problem occur.
i have also tried email support but the technician also give up on the problem.
is it the player's problem or the software problem?
does anyone know how to solve this prroblem?

Zen Vision: M Album Art prob

Hi all...
I recently did a fresh install of Windows MCE and had to reinstall all my Creative stuff. I used the CD-Rom to reinstall (still mad about the MP3 conversion removal from the new version of mediasource). Since reinstalling everything, I cannot drag jpg's into the Zen Media Explorer to put on the Album Art.
It worked before I reinstalled. Now when I drag a picture onto the "musical note" icon, the hard dri've on the Zen Vision has activity (the docked icon spins) but the picture doesn't appear.
The album art I added before is all still there, but I can't change or replace it. Every time I drag, the hard dri've spins and everything, but the picture just doesn't show up.
I haven't installed Windows Media Player either.
Any ideas?

I have found precisely the same problem.Re-installed windows last week, and ever since I have been unable to transfer album art. I used to do this by naming album art jpeg as "folder" and dragging album folder directly into Vision:M media explorer. I have also tried to dragging art onto the album art placeholder on "album" view - as described in creative knowledge base solution 879 - and this does not work. The only way I have found to transfer the album art is by syncing through media player . I should point out that I was using media player 0 before my re-install - but surely this cannot be the reason can it's The album art which I had transferred previously to my player is still fine. Is there any solution to this It's only a small problem, but it's really starting to bug me Thanks

Copy album art prob

As I copy album cover art to recently imported album music, I am finding that not all tunes in the album have the full image. On a pc I can copy and paste but I cannot seem to do this on the wife's Macbook Pro. Ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

Hello,
I am having a problem too, just in how to link the album art to files.
I play some songs, they fine, others not, wish i knew how to set the linking so I could manage the album art manually by linking to certain mp3 files. IE two or three songs come from the one art img.
With your problem however, it sounds like the pc media player has downloaded art for your songs, kindly put them somewhere for you to see when listening to your music (on CD[if so have a look at the folder settings in the tool options bit of WMP],
This understood, then when you play a copy of this file from another/different location, its not displayed?. Perhaps an album art manager is required too?
Or the folder file(another unknown 4 me] or the album art files are needed for the cd covers of the songs in the new folder[if unlike above WMP just reads the folder the music is in for the album art files of the cd covers for your mp3 tracks.
wish i knew more
anyways good luck

Album Art Prob

I have a Creative Zen Vision:M 60GB. I have suddenly got a problem putting album art for CDs onto my player. Never had a problem before. I would burn a CD onto my hard dri've using CDex. I would then play one of the tracks using Windows Media Player which would automatically pick up what album was playing and display the album art. Once the album art was picked up by WM Player, I would go back to the file, copy it and then paste it on to my player. At the moment, as?I play a track from the file through WM Player, it picks up the album art as normal but when I paste the file into my player, the player does not show album art. Any ideas?

ZVM Album Art Prob

A few of my WMA files have album art --I've noticed on my ZVM that these files always cause the player to freeze at the end of the song (I mostly play my library at random)--then I have to reset the player. I never have the problem with songs that have no album art, and considering I only have a few that do, and those are always the ones that get hung up, leads me to believe?it's something to do with having that image associated with the track.?Anyone else experience this?

k, so i tried wmp. i have wmp (i heard that causes some problems, but i have beta 2, which fixed some of them)
when i plug my device in and browse through it using wmp, it shows all the album art on there, but when i unplug it and look back through my player, its back to how it was before, with all the wrong album art.
i even tried taking an album from my player(that didnt have album art) removing it. taking the version from my library on my computer that had art that showed up in wmp, re-syching it to the player. still no art on the player.

ITunes / iPod Album art wierdness

I just got an iPod nano so I wanted to try and get the album art to display on the iPod when playing the songs. I transferred a whole bunch of my to the iPod before I realized who how do this.
So, I would select the iPod (not iTunes) library, select the album, go to a site with album art work, drag the art work to the art work section, it would update, then move on to the next. I did this for every album on the iPod. After that I did the same thing, except to the music in my iTunes library.
When I plug in my iPod and select an album, the album art shows up no problem in the iTunes interface..
When I use my iPod, only the albums where I added the alb um art to iTunes show up.
I do not have auto sync, or auto fill, or any of that stuff enabled.
What I'm wondering, can you not attach artwork to files already on the iPod, and if so, do I have to delete all the audio on my iPod, update all the album art in iTunes and transfer again? If so that's 1. a bummer and 2. very un-Apple.
Let me know if you've seen this before or can help.
Thanks,
Adam

If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
iTunes 6
1. Connect your iPod
2. Disable "Show Album art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes. (Disconnecting and then reconnecting your iPod will do the trick)
4. Re-enable "Show Album Art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
5. Syncronise the iPod again.
iTunes 7
If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
1. Connect your iPod
2. Disable "Display album artwork" in iPod>Music tab and click Apply.
3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes.
4. Re-enable "Display album artwork" in iPod>Music tab and click Apply.
5. Syncronise the iPod again.

Album art on ipod

Hey
This is no biggie but today I noticed that with the album art on my ipod it shows up fine with the song, i'll double click the centre button to show a bigger picture of the album cover and it comes up as a blank box. This is really wierd coz like half of the songs in the same album will do this, but half will show, so this is really random. Does this mean its a problem with the ipod? Everything is set to have album art displaying in itunes so thats no problem...
Laura.

Laura,
Have you tried resetting your iPod? This could be just a temporary glitch in the iPod that restarting would fix:
Press and hold the Menu and Select (middle of clickwheel) buttons together for about 5-10 seconds.
You might need to try this several times.

Syncing Album Art...

I have just added all my music to iTunes 7 and unfortunately iTunes was unable to locate all of the album art. Not a problem as i used another site to locate and i then added them via the "Get Info" link by right clicking over the tune. Having added the image and syncing the iTouch, some album art will not appear on the cover flow selection, but are clearly present on the album list view. The art is showing on iTunes, but not the device!
I have restored the iTouch and re-sync'd, but no joy there either!
Any suggestions as it's making my collection look tatty!?
Thanks everyone.

i had the same probs with mine
make sure you highlighted all the tracks on the album then click the get info and add the art
i deleted what id done and done the above and it worked

Album art does not show up??

I have a 30gb ipod photo and its wierd.. i sent it in for repair cause of an unrelated issue but now when i update my ipod... the album art doesnt show up for some songs even though its physically there on my computer and the art checkbox is checked. i have too much music on my computer for my ipod so i update via playlist, the only conclusion i could ammount to is that i am using Smart playlists but even the songs that show the art are from the smart playlists. i dont know what i should do? if anybody can help me it would be amazing!

Michael,
You may want to uncheck that box you refer to, click okay, and eject your iPod. Then go back and recheck the box.
If this doesn't work, you may want to restore...

ITunes 10.0.7.21 shows a white box instead of artwork for most of my albums. Many of these are albums I purchased on itunes. Also when I hit get album art it deleted the artwork it already had form many albums and says it cant find it.

OS is Windows 7
I updated iTunes the other day and I decided to run "get album art" and instead of finding artwork, it made some of the artwork I already had show up as white squares, or disapear entirely. The ones that are white squares show up under the get info, but not in itunes. I did click in view for show al artwork, no luck. Many of these albums I bought from iTunes. The ones that the artwork was deleted some albums I can buy on iTunes, but already owned, and iTunes found the artwork before, but now cannot. Some are albums that I spent many hours finding and adding the artwork myself. I am very frustrated. I cannot find the time to manually install artwork for thousands of songs.
My work computer is Windows 8, so I really don't want to hear windows vs OSX argument. My company won't switch to mac because you like it better, so I just need a solution to my issue. iTunes it has always worked better for me on my work PC than my macBook, I dont know why, but I don't take two laptops with me when I travel so I have my iTunes library on the PC that has to come with me. This is the first time an update has screwed things up for me.

Well my first guess was wrong. The line that failed is the one that writes out the image to disk. I've not revisited the code for that script for ages, but it seems I did add in an extra test for missing files a little while later, then forgot to upload the change. I can reproduce the error message if I deliberately rename a file to confuse iTunes so that seems the most likely reason for your problem with the script. I've uploaded a new build of CreateFolderArt which should work better.
See FindTracks for a tool to repair broken links. You should probably get that issue fixed first.
I know what SPSS stands for but that is all I know about it.

How can I display all album art of my library in iTunes

All my music tracks in my library contain the respective album art within their ID3-tags and it is perfectly displayed in the lower left corner window when I select or play a track.
What I really would like to do is to browse through my library using the album art, not the text-based endless lists (title, album, interpret, genre etc.), then click on a cover, see the tracks and select one.
Is there a feature in iTunes already that can do that or a plug-in somewhere in the market ? (I do not need a tool that collects album art like eyejamz, but a tool to display the art I already have)
Thanks a lot for any feedback

Bakergirl,
You can use iTunes to remove the beginning or end of a song (or both) by setting the Start and Stop times.
But to remove a section from the middle and keep the rest, you will need an audio editor such as Audacity.

How can I quickly get the same album art for all tracks on an album without manually doing them one at a time?

I am having trouble with album art linked to each track. My library is ripped from my own cd's and ITunes only provides some of the artwork from a find artwork search. The rest must be found and added one at a time manually from web. This process is tedious and time consuming for me. Is there a file in iTunes related to each album that I can just drop the art once and it shows up linked to all the tracks from that album when they play? I've tried selecting all songs from an album and dragging the artwork to the artwork window once in hopes of all tracks getting the artwork at the same time with no luck. Any advice for this paltry artwork dilemma would be appreciated. If Cassidy & Greene still owned this ******* child of SoundJam I know I would not be having this problem! HaHa...Thanks for any advice/help with this problem.

Thx 4 quick reply alexbird. Your method will work and after a little experimenting so will this: Just go to the album art view option and highlight the album you want artwork for. Drag the artwork from your album art web search page to bottom left hand album art window in iTunes and just drop it there. A small progress window then appears showing each album track adopting the dropped artwork one by one. It only takes 10-15 seconds for all of the tracks on your album to adopt the new artwork. I then went back and removed unwanted artwork(from the albums that had it) track by track from the get info menu. This goes pretty quick as you just pick track>get info>artwork>highlight art>delete>ok for each track.
This drag/drop to the album art view page has been the simplest and most effective way I have discovered to manually import album artwork into iTunes so far. Hope this helps someone else out there. Any other methods or suggestions to do this task added to this thread will be duly noted. Thx... Oh, I am currently using iTunes 10.5.1

After i downloaded IOS5 most of my album art on my iPod touch is missing, but its still on my computer.

some of the album art for the songs i recently downloaded from itunes is there, but almost everything i've downloaded from itunes in the past has no album art. how do i get it back?

Another thing to try: uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox in your iPod pane in iTunes, sync and allow iTunes to remove the tracks, then rechec the "Sync Music" checkbox and resync. That fixed the problem with missing and incorrect album artwork on my iPad with iOS 5.
Regards.

A late majority of the album art on my iPod Touch is mixed up.

I put a CD in my laptop to import it to iTunes. I unplugged my iPod and all the album art in my music (all of which I had purchased on iTunes) was mixed up. Say, a Lady Gaga song still played Lady Gaga but the album art was one of my Katy Perry songs. I've tried restoring all settings but it's still messed up. I need help, please.

You are not alone. 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/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
