Album artwork for imported CDs?

Hi!

Try checking if the name of album and artist are correctly written on the song info tags. I've had the same problem, and it was a matter of misspelled names. iTunes can be very picky about it.

Rolfie is right. When you import a CD, iTunes uses the spelling, spacing and punctuation from the Gracenote DB. When it does a lookup for album art, it uses what's in iTunes Music Store, which can easily differ in some little detail.

If you can't get a particular piece of art from iTunes, copy it from anywhere on the web, then right-click the song, Get Info and paste it into the Artwork tab.

The last suggestion was the best for me. My album information was being imported so there was little to no chance of it being misspelled, I just couldn't get any of the album artwork to come up. The best resolve for me was to find it on the web and copy and paste the artwork. I think it's ridiculous that itunes doesn't do this automatically, but I will do it manually to save my sanity. Thanks for the suggestion.

Considering this info is input by users such as you and me and sent to Gracenote (where iTunes looks uop the info), there are plenty of chances it will be incorrect.

Check for punctuation, extra spaces, using "&" in place of "and" and such.

I am having a similar issue, but when i go to paste it in, it showes up on the properties page, but then when i click ok and go back into my library, the art doesn't show up...
