iTunes Album Art Screensaver with iTunes Match in Lion

A well documented problem so far.


Would just like a DEFINITIVE answer


  • Running iTunes 10.5.3
  • Lion 10.7.2
  • iTunes Match working great with songs still stored locally.
  • Have re-downloaded all album artwork & displays just fine while in iTunes
  • When activating Screensaver, get the message 'No iTunes artwork found'

Ok all you mac/iTunes geniuses, what have you figured out so far?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2), 2011 - 13" i7.

Wes_Man_Tooth, you're a legend! I always keep reading posts for the easiest solutions and I try them from the hardest to the easiest until I find a solution. My Library screen saver used to work fine and then when upgrading to Lion it started messing about. I couldn't believe when I deleted the voice memos it actually solved the problem!!! Awesome! Thanks alot

I spent 3500 on a new Mac Pro. The Bluetooth isn't compatible with my iPhone so it won't sync with my iPhone. The iTunes library just doesn't work and it's just a headache now that my entire library is screwed up. After spending $800 on my new Dell Inspiron Laptop, it syncs with no issues with my iPhone. One button to click and enter a code and it synced. This is a Windows 7 machine that synced with my Apple iPhone flawlessly and my MacPro won't. Tell me this is a joke. Seriously, Apple, get your head out of your ***** and start thinking about your customers instead of worrying about how the next product is going to be a new design breakthrough. I used to be a Mac lover for the work I do, but Windows is starting to become superior over Mac products. I want to keep supporting Mac, but when the simplest things won't or do not work, then it's about time I move on to another product that does work. My 2 cents.

Had the same issue, itunes screensaver on my macbook pro with retina display stopped today. Tried a number of solutions found online, but what worked was incredibly simple. I subscribe to iTunes Match and have it running on my laptop, iphone 5 and latest ipad. I had signed out of iTunes at some point and did not realize this disabled iTunes Match. Once I enabled iTunes Match on all of my devices the artwork screensaver was back to normal.
