Usually a CD comes with more artwork than just the cover. It has a CD cover w/ lyrics and other artwork. Is it possible to download this via itunes? If not, who?

I keep my large music collection on an external drive connected to an Airport Extreme in my home. I've embedded all my album artwork in the music files, and previously all the album artwork was displaying perfectly in iTunes. After upgrading to iTunes 10.5, however, most of my albums are missing the album art in the album list and Cover Flow. I know that the art is still in the file because it shows up in the "Now Playing" box in the lower left corner of the screen. The only way I have found to get the album art to show up again in the album list and Cover Flow is to go through the following steps: Â Control-click the first track of an album for which the cover art is not displaying correctly. From the context menu that appears, select Get Info.Click on the Artwork tab, then click Cancel.Â
Now the artwork shows up in iTunes in all views. I called Apple Support and asked if there's a faster way to fix the issue with the database. Manually fixing each album for hundreds of albums is no fun. Telling iTunes to Get Album Artwork doesn't work because most of my music was not purchased from iTunes but was ripped from CDs I already own. It's very frustrating because I already spent hours finding and embedding the hi-res album art in my files. I paid extra for Apple products because I expect them to at least avoid corrupting my databases.
For some reason, when I download the album artwork from iTunes for "Music from and Inspired by Spider-Man," it instead shows artwork for "Ethnicali: Music Inspired by the Golden State." I don't even have that album. There was another album of mine that iTunes applied the wrong artwork to as well, but I can't remember it off-hand. In any case, does anybody have any suggestions as to what I could do to fix this issue. I already submitted feedback to Apple about the problem as well.Â

I have gone to great effort to scan in and add back cover artwork to many of my albums.Â
It used to work that I could view the back cover (or any other additional artwork) that I added to a song by clicking a set of forward and backward arrows that were to the left and right of where it says "Now playing" or "Selected item". Now with iTunes 10.6 (maybe before) I can no longer flip through my songs that have more than one artwork graphic added. I've tried right clicking, opening the artwork into the separate window nothing. There doesn't seem to be a way anymore to view my back covers.

How do you add artwork to a whole album? When I select an album in grid view and choose Get Info, the Get Info window does not show the artwork tab, like what shows when I select a single song. There is a tiny little Artwork window in the Info tab, but I want to add multiple artwork to this (dragged in from the Finder), front, back and inside album art. If I select a single song in that album and choose Get Info, then I see the artwork tab, but the artwork I drag in applies only to that song (the album art appears in the Now Playing pane only when that song is playing). How do you add artwork to a whole album?

I've been trying to figure out how to add album cover to .flac and .aiff files for a while. When I try to add it to .flac, it just shows "Album cover not modifiable" and when I try to add it to .aiff files, it does it, but then when I quit iTunes and restart it, it's gone again.
Is this a bug or it just not possible to add album cover to them?
Btw: Audiophile, would prefer .flac or .aiff over .mp3

I'm in the process of writing, recording, and producing an album, and I've run into a little snag in iTunes:Â I have one song finished and in iTunes so far, and it's under the name of my album. I put my name, the date, all other album information, but it won't let me change the album artwork. Under "get info" for both the album and the song, the "artwork" pane is grayed out and I can't change it. I have the artwork on my computer and just want to put it in there so I can see the cover next to the songs,
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently made some edits to the genres of about 30 of my songs. Once it synced up, I checked back at the songs. The album artwork for the songs is now gone, I can't change it because the artwork tab in "Get Info" is now gone, and I can't play the songs.
View 10 Replies View RelatedThe issue I am having is with iTunes. It is fully updated to the latest version and so is my laptop software updates. All I do is rip the music off of my purchased CD from any retail store, but the problem I'm having is when it finishes, all the songs are single and only 1 of the songs will get the album information. How can I combine or sort them all together under one(the one with the album artwork)?

I know that WAV is a no-no with iTunes for artwork, so I converted the playlist tunes to Apple Lossless and still cannot add album artwork.

I saw some pictures of people's desktop showing the artowrk of what they are playing on itunes on their desktop. How do you go about doing this?
I can click on the album artwork in iTunes (8.0.2) and it will display the larger version of an album cover, but I can't right click and copy it, or display the actual file in the finder. Sometimes I want to copy the artwork for an email, forum, etc. and don't want to always use Grab to make a screenshot. Where are the album files stored on my Mac?

I thought my album artwork was disappearing. Turns out the problem is a bit different (and weirder) than I thought it was.Â
When I look at the Album view in iTunes and see all the albums in a tile/grid layout, there are some albums that show no artwork. These just have the default gray cover with the...um...note thingy on it. But when I click on one of these album covers and see the songs, all of them *do* have artwork. When I play these songs, I also see the artwork. It's only at the album level that I don't.Â

How do you get the itunes Album Cover Art on the desktop?
View 8 Replies View Relatedyesterday my iTunes started showing around each album artwork a black 'frame' that I don't know how to remove since I don't like it..
Is there a way of using 'print screen' to post a picture here what it looks like?
I have multiple artwork (pictures) for the same album. I have read many threads but I still could not find the answer.

Is there away I can remove the artwork embedded in the mp3 files WITHOUT reimporting them back to iTunes? I don't want to remove the artwork from the iTunes library, just from the phone card. Is there a separate application that can batch-handle ID3 tags and artwork? i copied the songs from my macbook to the m2 memory stick using a usb adapter so i can use the songs on my ericsson. I think it is really annoying that iTunes requires songs to be in the library to handle them. I could really use a separate application or a script/folder action that would do the trick - freeware or shareware
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to stop iTunes from embedding artwork into every file(track), and instead store 1 copy per album?
From what I remember thats the way cover flow used to work. Why the switch to embedding artwork in every file? A extra 20+MB per album is just ridiculous(Using a 800x800 PNG).
I know its possible to store the album artwork without embedding it in the file. Because I have a few older albums that still use the old method (storing only a single copy of the artwork in /iTunes/Album Artwork/).
I have seen that several people have experienced this, and one 'solution' is to delete the album from the iPad and then move it back from iTunes. However iTunes will not let me move the album again onto my iPad. Why not? (I am having to use manual moving rather than syncing because I have another iTunes on a PC, and the iPad seems to have attached itself to that.)

Three times in the last week iTunes (10.6.1) is missing coverart for about 30 of 300 movies. This is also happening with music artwork. The artwork can be individually repopulated using "Get Info" but this is really just a bandaid and I would like to know if anyone knows why this is happening and how to fix the root cause.

I did some searches in google as well as this forum and it looks like there are quite a few options out there for users interested having a program automatically grab missing album artwork from places like amazon if you are running iTunes on Windows.
Users have also reported that some of these tools are great at screwing up the existing album artwork in your iTunes library.
I am looking for a batch tool since I have missing artwork on 1000s of songs (note that this album artwork is not present in itunes store). Does anyone know of a good, reliable program or script that can import missing album artwork on iTunes 8 in OS X 10.5?
When inserting an audio cd to import into my itunes library the audio cd is labeled only as track 1, track 2, etc. there is no album info, artist name, artwork.

I have purchased a number of HD and SD movies that include iTunes Extras. All but one of the these movies show as Unknown Album in Cover Flow (under the artwork). The detailed listing in iTunes reflects the correct names. The correct names show up on my iPad and Apple TV. I have worked with Apple Support, to include a senior advisor. We have tried the following at least once and they now tell me they have exhausted all the possible solutions. Confirmed information in Get Info was correct.Changed the information in Get Info.Re-downloaded the movies after deleting the problem movies. This was done multiple times.Reinstalled Mac OS.Deleted and reinstalled iTunes.Â
A few observations. When I delete the Extras from iTunes the title under the artwork for the movie in Cover Flow shows the correct title.The one movie that is correct has one artwork poster for the movie and one artwork poster for Extras. All others have only one artwork poster and appears to share the same artwork poster.The file size represented in iTunes detail listing for the Extras is significantly lower than the file size on my hard drive. The same can be said for the movies (all movies, not just those with Extras), but not to the same degree. For example, one Extras in iTunes is 13mb in the detail listing and on the hard drive it is 772mb. This example and all Extras work correctly.Â

My dad just bought the $1999 model of the new MacBook Pro a few days ago. Previously he had a MacBook Pro with a 2.16 GHz Core 2 Duo processor in it. We used target disk mode to transfer all of the data over and everything went fine. The only problem now is in System Preferences when using the screen savers his favorite iTunes album artwork screen saver is not working saying there is no album artwork in iTunes which isn't true (I checked ). When in that preference it causes System Preferences to slow down to the point where I need to force quit it and it causes the application to crash.
