Music Albums get wrong covers while syncing
Ok, I've had it with itunes. I have spent countless hours the past 4 months that I own an ipad mini, trying to figure out what causes all my music artwork troubles.
First things first, I have about 10k mp3s on my pc, most pf them riped from cds, ALL of them properly organized with id3 tags and artwork covers embeded on folder AND files themselves. All these years I am using Windows Media Player. But since Apple forced me to use itunes for ipad syncing, I had to reorder my whole musoc library to itunes' taste, meaning adding artwork to albums itunes for some reason didnt recognize.
To make a long story sort, I have big trouble with album artworks right now. Itunes show covers just fine (after so much work I did) but it seemed that while syncing to ipad mini most albums would get the wrong cover. Some of them would get NO cover at all, while others wuld get the right cover. I noticed that only less than 10 wrong covers would appear overand over again, making me thinking that something is wrong with ipad artwork cache, or whatever. I tries switching back to itunes 10, messing with every possible itunes configuration, clearing everything from music folder on ipad, turnong off homesharing etc. As for now, not a single album will get the right cover while syncing, andmysteriously enough many songs will not even sync correctly (greyd out). The more I try to fix them, the more problems I get out of nowhere.
I strongly suspect that this is an ipad issue and not an itunes one. Cover shows fine on itunes, syncs to ipad mini, gets a totally wrong cover or no cover at all. Could it be that some other app is messing with my musoc app? A media sharing app perhaps? But please know that i' m having this prpblem since day one, only that now it's far more intense.
Furthermore, the same problem occurs while using the Homesharing method. Most album covers appear wrong while scrolling through my home network through my ipad. ALTHOUGH the right covers appear while using the Remote app. Oh god, it's a headache.
Dear Apple, users have been having similar problems for years now, for what I can see. Why don't you fix this bug for a change? Oh yeah right, the one and only track i have bought from itubes, has the right covers. Who knows, maybe if I buy again my 800 albums I own, I' ll get the right covers!
