Album Cover Art changed after signing up for Apple Music

I mentioned unchecking Apple Music because you mentioned having signed up for it in your OP and I wondered if a change to Apple Music might be the common denominator. It's all moot now.

I deleted the music on my phone, deleted the music app and started all over, before bed last night. At my last calculation (based on current progress and the amount of time that had elapsed) I had this process pegged at about an hour and 45 minutes but I was having a hard time keeping my eyes open so I went to bed. When I got into bed, it immediately occurred to me that rebooting my phone after deleting the music and the app might have been a good idea. However, by then, it was too late anyway.

Long story short, everything looks great this morning. I'm glad I found your thread and appreciate your additional input.

Now I can get back to adding to my collection, feeling like I'm finally caught back up and beyond where I was 3 years ago.

Is everything still working?

I will give this a try since I also have this issue...everything correct in iTunes on the PC but all out of whack on my phone. I'm not sure when I'll get around to it since I have about 31,000+ songs to upload from my computer.

Wait. Does this mean having to rebuild you app library as well? Might be a deal breaker.

I just spent 3 years on a complete rebuild, after losing all the music on my PC so I was hoping for a better outcome, after all this work. I'm seriously considering an alternative to iTunes but I really like having the music reside on my phone so I don't have to rely on crappy cell coverage. Plex is my backup and while I love it, it still requires streaming the music.

That’s essentially what I just did. I went into settings, music, edit and deleted my entire music library before reinstalling the rebuilt library. However, I didn’t uninstall the music app.

I was thinking back to how iTunes worked years ago and at that time, deleting the app would have deleted everything. I just realized that deleting the music app should only affect music on my phone and not all the apps, photos, documents, etc.

Tell me I’m right so I can feel better about loading 31,000 songs twice in 2 days.

FWIW, I unchecked Apple Music in my settings before loading the new library and perhaps this created my problem. It had been turned on but I exclusively rip my music from CDs so there’s no point in leaving it on.

Thanks. I’m just happy that you were able to resolve your own problem since no one replied with help. Running across your thread helped solve my problem.

I’m not sure about you but I am definitely NOT a techie and I stumble around in the dark a lot, when trying to resolve problems. I can generally find my way to a resolution but it’s nice when it’s this easy. Thanks again.

LOL.

I’m only laughing because, while I’m NOT a techie, I can usually get to the bottom of things, with the help of the innerwebz. My problem is that when I run into the exact same problem again, I have to go back to square one….but I’ll get to the bottom of it!

Thanks again!
