Album cover won't show in Finder

Album covers of mp3/aac files won't show in Finder after upgraded to macOS 10.13.

All of my 3 Macs have the same issue.

I believe it's not a special case but a system bug....or it's not?

Anyone experiencing the same problem?

It's so obvious, I don't know how could this happen...

And, yet I don't know how to report the issue besides the old feedback site, which I've reported several bugs and no one cares...

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS High Sierra (10.13)

This issue has been fixed in 10.13.2 (confirmed at my Mac mini 2014, two MacBook Pro 13'' 2015).

If you're experiencing some fixed, some not problem, it may relate to the system cache, try some tool which can rebuild the cache files.

I'm changing this topic to solved.

After all still very disappointed that Apple took so long to fix such a obvious yet (should) can be fixed easily problem.

Considering the huge bugs happened to macOS, iOS, watchOS(extremely slow), really frustrating.

This is insane! Come on Tim Cook, fix the problem! I'm a loyal, long-term Mac user

Is there a way to manually activate the com.apple.MediaLibraryService as a work around?

Hi,

Not pertaining to the missing album art issue which i also seem to still have, how did you achieve the black menu bar and the spaced out list view in the second image. Thanks.

Just tried 10.13.2 beta 2. How can this still not be fixed? How the heck hard can this basic feature possibly be to fix? Then again it makes perfect sense.

Same problem here, no album art showing in finder. iTunes shows them perfectly. Running MacBook Pro (retina mid 2012)

Same problem here. No artwork. Very frustrating. I hope there's a fix very soon. I wish that I hadn't upgraded to High Sierra now.

Same here but c'mon guys, it's a minor bug!! How can it be so strong that it makes someone downgrading the OS??!! It will be fixed, for sure.

Nov 11, 2017 6:15 PM in response to ebatalha

Ebatahla, usage varies from person to person. I happen to be a DJ that works with music files on a daily basis. It's definitely a big inconvenience for me.

Nov 12, 2017 5:38 AM in response to agapecsc

Same here! not waiting for Apple...... #shame

Nov 12, 2017 9:02 AM in response to Noctis

Is there an easy and painless way to downgrade?
