iTunes7 -> iPod artwork problem

Mr Rivers

When I use the "Get Album Artwork" within iTunes7 the artwork doesnt port over to the iPod

When I get the .jpg files and add them myself it works but not when I use the iTunes feature, any ideas?

What model IPOD are you using?

Mr Rivers

60GB Video iPod

Are you sure you are even gettin the album art from itunes when you go to "Get album Artwork" because I had to change the name of the album for some of the songs to get the album artwork

Mr Rivers

yeah cos when I get them I can see the artwork on all the tracks of that album but only within iTunes

Dman001

Do you drag the songs onto the ipod or does itunes put the songs on your ipod automaticly when you connect your ipod

Auto-sync

Try taking auto-sync off and drag the songs on the ipod and see if that works

Mr Rivers

I cant see how that'd help since when I manually add the covers the auto-sync updates the mp3s on the iPod but not when I use iTunes

Dman001

Mabe it only works with the new ipods?

Mr Rivers

Well mine is still the latest 5th Gen and shows artwork for everything else but just not from when iTunes gets them

Dman001

Did you update your ipod because a new update came out a few days ago

Mr Rivers

yep, it's up to 1.2 firmware

Dman001

Try taking auto-sync off.Thats all i can think that could be the problem

Mr Rivers

k, tried and still no change

Dman001

Does it definitly come up in itunes before you put it on your ipod

Drag the new files, which have the attached artwork to the iPod. After turning off auto-sync.
