iTunes Artwork

[JustTheTip]

Can anyone tell me how to get album artwork into iTunes? I've tried dragging the album covers from iMusic, but they won't drop into the 'drag album artwork here' box......

TIA

1 To add artwork to one song, click the "Show or hide song artwork and video viewer" button in the lower-left corner of the iTunes window, then select the song that you want to add artwork to in your library or a playlist. Drag a still image file to the artwork box. (You can also copy and paste the image.) 2 To add artwork to each song in your library or a playlist, select a song in the list and choose File > Get Info. In the song artwork and video viewer, click Add to add art to the current song (or drag the art file from your desktop to the artwork box), then click Next to add art to the next song in the list, and so on. 3 To add more than one piece of art to a song, drag more than one image to the same artwork box. 4 To add the same artwork to multiple songs, press the Control key and click each song you want to add art to, then choose File > Get Info. Drag the artwork that you want to add to each of the selected songs from your desktop to the artwork box.

I can get 2 and 4 working on my PC running XP Pro, Haven't tried 3. Can't get 1 to work here but it may work on a MAC.

1) Certainly does work on a Mac!

Couple of handy little widgets about as well that searches Amazon, for example, and then places the album art into iTunes, on a per album basis.
