I have a Mac running OS 10.8.2 with iTunes 11, an iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.2, an iPad running iOS 6.0.1 and an iPod Classic. I am having album artwork problems. I really, really obsess about album artwork because I love seeing it in Coverflow and the new album panel in iTunes 11. Almost all of my music is legally downloaded, thus had artwork included, but what stragglers I do have from my Kazaa days back in high school and mix CDs friends have given me and such I have religiously gone online and found artwork for and properly tagged the music. This is therefore, very bothersome to me what it happening. It's also worth noting that I subscribe to iTunes Match, but do not have in enabled on either the iPad or the iPhone. I sync all of my music to my devices via my Mac.
On my iPad, almost none of my album artwork is showing. It just shows the blank question mark screen. On my iPhone, most of my artwork is also missing, but many albums and songs are showing totally wrong artwork- artwork from other albums. The artwork is correct in iTunes. I tried quitting the music app on the devices and re-syncing. This didn't help on the iPad at all. On the iPhone, on one of my albums (The Fray's Scars and Stories- bought as an album from iTunes) which was previously showing artwork for a different album (A Lady Antebellum album I ripped from a CD) starting showing artwork on different songs from four different albums, some showing the correct artwork, others showing Lady Antebellum, and still others showing different still artwork. This is one example of a problem affecting many songs and albums.
My iPod Classic is continuing to show all of the correct artwork. And some people question why I still insist the iPod Classic is the best pure music player.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope I didn't sound too much like a snob in this post. I just love the feeling of looking down at my iPhone's lock screen and seeing artwork for a favorite album.
