Deleting Album Art Work

I recently added some album art to some songs. I actually want to change the art I put on a song/group of songs/album. How can I do this i have tried numerous things and nothing. When i drag in a new piece of art into the window at the bottom left it does nothing to cover flow.
help appreciated..
thanks

Hi dexter82,

I don't have a Mac, so just use the Mac version of the Windows terms I'm gonna use...

For Multiple songs:

In itunes, select the songs/albums you want to delete artwork from. Right-Click, a window will appear with the artwork pane on the middle-right. Check the box next to it but _leave the artwork pane blank._ Click "Ok". This should delete all the artwork in those files. Simply repopulate them with the artwork you want using the same procedure above except, this time, drag the artwork to the artwork pane.

For individual songs:

Right-Click > Get Info > Artwork Tab. Delete the artwork and drag new artwork here.

Hi Dexter82
First, select all of the songs you wish to change the artwork to (hold down Command while selecting when choosing multiple songs). If you want to do change artwork for an entire album-select it in the browser window (to show the browser window, Command+B).

Second, Command+I (Info), answer yes-you do want to change info for the entire album.

+(If you want to change art for an individual song, select the song and Command+I. Hit the artwork tab, select the existing artwork (if there is any) and delete it. Then choose add. A dialogue/browser-box will open to allow you to navigate to the desired picture file. Click OK.)+

Third, drag art into the box located in the middle-right section of the info panel, then hit OK.

To delete artwork from a single file, get the information on it, go to the artwork tab, select the artwork and choose delete. Close the information window.

To delete artwork from multiple files, select the multiple files. You select by using command+click on individual files, or shift+click on a range of files. Get the information for the files. Say yes to editing multiple. One of the fields in the info window will be for artwork and will be blank even if you have artwork for those files. Click the check box next to this and close the info window. This will essentially delete all artwork in those files, even if they have multiple pieces in them.
