How can I change Album Art without iTunes Match reverting it back?
I spent way too much time yesterday testing out different ways to make this work. Essentially, not matter what I do, I can change artwork on one device and it will populate to the others, but when I "Update iTunes Match", the artwork will revert to the old artwork. It's like iTumes match has already decided the artwork I have given them so far is permanent.
The only artwork changes I can get to permanently sitck are albums that had no artwork previously.
I have tried
- Deleting the music files from the computer entirely, just in case there was artwork embedded in the files causing the problem.
- Deleting ALL of the artwork folders from the iTumes folder on my main machine.
- Turning off iTunes Match on everything, even iOS devices and just using the main machine.
It is a tease because I can be on my main machine, change some artwork, and I can see it almost immediately change on my Apple TV and my Macbook Air. Everything looks great, then you come back later, your main Mac has performed a "Update iTunes Match" and the time you spent updating your artwork is now lost.
