Can't manually add artwork to iTunes?

Almost all the formats that are compatible with iTunes (exceptions include .wav and - I assume from your example - .mov) can have artwork embedded in them. Unless the initial imports are in one of these "exception" formats, you don't need to convert to mp3 (and doing so from any other lossy format will reduce audio quality) just to associate artwork. It may be worth looking for a 3rd party utility that can extract the audio data from a .mov file without re-encoding it.

Quite by accident I found that in "Songs" view, clicking "View" then "View Options" and selecting "Always Show" will display artwork for everything in the "Songs" view. Obvious now I know it's there, but...

Exactly the same problem here since last upgrade!

Thank you so much!

That helped me a lot 🙂

Top Man, that worked a treat

Awesome, files were read-only. Thanks man.

This worked thank you i was having this problem too it's just the file accessibility was read-only therefore not letting my change or modify the files! 🙂

Thanks man, U R da real MVP. This totally worked for me 🙂

I never had trouble manually adding artwork to my tracks before until now (6/3/16). Is there a new bug? My artwork gets added temporarily, and gets replaced by something random one minute later.
