    Hello, i've looked through many forums and i can't find the correct solution for my problem. I uploaded a bunch of cds into itunes and manually put them on my ipod, none of the cover art showed up on my ipod but they all showed up in itunes.
    I tried deleting an album from my ipod and put it back on my ipod (since it was in itunes anyway), but there was still no album art.

    How do i get the album art work on there?
    Thank you for anyone who can help!

    Ok there allot of steps to check, believe me i spend countless hours organizing my cover art on my itunes library, first what ipod you have, earlier Gen ipods didn't display cover art, after the ipod with pictures then they could display the album art, next, go to your itunes library, right click a song, and choose get info, when the window opens up, choose the tap artwork, make sure all the songs have the album art on this space, last step is to restore your ipod and make sure you have the lates update and just restore the ipod, everything will be wipe and reinstall everything, there isn't a setting on the ipod or itunes to show your cover art on the ipod screen itself, that is why doing a restore it may take care of the problem. there is also a plugging for itunes i use call soundcrank, it will add lyrics and album art to your itunes songs, you just have to make sure the album title and artist are present on the audio files. Good luck.

    You can always google the album cover and cut and paste it into iTunes.
