iOS 7 music app does not display artist pictures and has incorrect album art after master reset.

I just found the way

1) Sync your music

2) Go to iRadio, find your artist

3) Sign Out

4) Sign back in

5) Click your artist

I used this way and it works perfectly

OK. I've done some detective work and heres what I figured out.

First, if you want the artist pictures, the metadata artist info has to be EXACTLY identical to that of the Itunes Store/Radio, particularly the artist name and capitalization of letters:

For example: "Jay-Z" or "Jay Z" wont work but "JAY Z" in caps will work.

The same is true that Linkin Park won't work but LINKIN PARK as in all caps will work.

Also "System of a Down" will work but "System Of A Down" will not. Why something can be spelled correctly but not be the proper capitalization and therefore not have the artist picture is beyond me. Apple should fix this.

Once the artist name is spelled EXACTLY as it is in Itunes Radio (and it has an artist photo in Itunes Radio) then log out of the apple store on the iphone and log back in under itunes radio and the artist pictures will automatically download.

Here's the one part I cannot for the life of me figure out and its driving me bonkers! I challenge anyone to solve this.

It seems that once youve spelled a name correctly but didnt capitalize properly originally for

example you had the band named "Rage Against The Machine" instead of "Rage Against the Machine", even if you rename

the metadata in the artist tags in itunes, delete music from iphone, and resync, the name does not change on the iphone (it still recognizes the old improprr capitalization). Its like some weird metadata still exists on the iphone even after the songs were deleted.

I know that the problem is not in Itunes as the artist is capitalized correctly and the name appears correct on my ipad music app (with the artist picture) but not the iphone music app. My OCD is getting the best of me. I even tried deleting the files from itunes and re-adding the files spelled properly but it still capitalizes the names the old way once the artist is in itunes. Its driving me crazy!!

I noticed the spelling/capitalization issue some time ago. The only way I've found to fix it is to erase the device and restore it using iTunes (make sure you backup first). When you set it up again it should populate the same as it is in iTunes.

Thanks mrsnork. I will restore from a backup the next time I get a chance. Hopefully that'll do it

yup the reset delete all content and restore worked. However. apparently artists can also lose their photo in itunes radio (apparently marilyn manson had one but no longer does)

The way my folders are set up is that there's Cache folders and Original folders. Which do I insert photos into? Also there's some that doesn't work for me. I think I'm doing it wrong, not sure. I did everything and it doesn't apply to artists that usually doesn't have photo's associated with iTunes. 😐

Actually what did work was just go into settings sign out and sign back in. Then the albums that were bought from iTunes the artwork re-appeared afterwards.
