When I import songs from an unknown artist itunes seems to be pulling random images for album artwork. For example, one pic is the cover of a book in ibooks, another pic is the cover page from a .pdf document that was in my documents folder. I have no idea where or how iTunes comes up with this stuff as album artwork.
MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
I can't edit my first post so I have to double post. Here is a screen shot of what I'm talking about, here are a bunch of random songs that are "unknown artists" and as you can see the album artwork is the cover of a magazine that is in my ibooks folder.
Hi Live4emt,
This same issue is driving me crazy every time I'm importing a new "unknown" album; have you found any explanation/solution since your last post?
Thanks in advance for your help.
iTunes is still doing it. v12.3.3.17 - has no one a solution yet?
Still the same in iTunes v12.4
Hi,
Ive been having this problem for a long while now but today i accidentally fixed so i thought id try and help 🙂
I just went on to the Get Info part of iTunes and simply clicked the album as 'compiation of songs by various artist' and the album artwork just turned into the generic music artwork
Hope it works for you too
yep this worked for me too! :-)
