Question for Ipod classic users
 
Yo dOOOOOOdz

a quick question that some of you might be able to answer.
Itunes doesn't find illustration ( cover art) for some of the albums i import.
That's obviously because they're not available on Itunes.
Now i thought i could easily solve the problem by re -importing the folder with a cover art picture in it but it doesn't work.
Still the annoying music note to replace cover art for albums that don't have available cover art.

There must be a way to maybe retag or rename a picture that will apply to the songs in the folder.

Does anyone get what i'm saying?
Any ideas.
I'm THE tidy person and i would like it so much if my i pod showed cover art for just any album i have i there.

Any help appreciated and rep shall be delivered very generously.:D

in itunes select the album's songs, right click-> infos (dunno the exact word, it's "informazioni" in italian)->illustration->choose the pic->click ok->done.

floatingslowly 10.08.2009 03:51 PM

just find the jpg on the net, highlight the songs you want and drag the jpg onto the box on the bottom left of iTunes that says "album art".

why am I telling you this? in a month, yr going to say that you never really had an iPod.

greedrex 10.08.2009 03:52 PM

o really, is it that easy???
fuck i missed that one.
have to go to other PC to have a look.
repped for accuracy.

nicfit 10.08.2009 03:53 PM

fuck off.

greedrex 10.08.2009 03:54 PM

I'll try both ways.
Thanks you both.

yeah you're right i'm not even sure i really exist or if i'm really writing these words. Too much Fight Club.

greedrex 10.08.2009 03:57 PM

ha ok
fuck off too then!

nicfit 10.08.2009 03:58 PM

thanks!

greedrex 10.08.2009 03:59 PM

no problem
i'm always eager to please.

greedrex 10.08.2009 04:00 PM

wow both methods do work.
I'm such a thick bastard. bah.
This board really did help me on a few things.
pretty cool.
go board go.

floatingslowly 10.08.2009 04:03 PM

yeah both methods work. I find the drag 'n drop easier if you only need to change the artwork though.

greedrex 10.08.2009 04:05 PM

it's great, cheers.

It doesn't work that way at all. You copy a picture .. find it in google and right click, then copy it. Then you go to Get Info in itunes, go to the "Artwork" tab and then paste it into that space. Make sure the picture is big enough to work with cover flow if you use that feature.

alteredcourse 10.09.2009 01:28 AM

yoooo doodz

That was probably the worst I've ever felt.

I love itunes, no idea why people complain about it. I always strip the options down to the basics and it works like a charm.
And I've been using it for years on a daily basis, basically...mah!

greedrex 10.09.2009 05:56 AM

Slavo, you editin' mofo.

use media monkey or you can get numerous plugins for windows media player.

greedrex 10.09.2009 06:06 AM

nah thx, me likey my i-tunes. i just had this "unavailable cover art" issue to solve and now it's all bliss, butterflies, rainbows and gay malaria.

SYRFox 10.09.2009 06:42 AM

Yeah iTunes is neat. I can't see why people complain about it neither.

SONIC GAIL 10.09.2009 08:27 AM

I hacked into yr itunes and fixed all the cover art. you can thank me later

Derek 10.09.2009 09:24 AM

I don't see what's so hard about using winamp and just dragging the folder to the very small simple player.
