yes, someone had told me that there are no restrictions anymore, but
try on an old one you downloaded a couple of years ago, they still
tell you it's a no-no. that you can't change it into a mp3 format.
But that is old iron for me now anyway.
But a totally different matter,
how can I have draft mailbox permanently in my mailboxes ? my Tiger
supports one fine, my leopard only does while I put a piece of mail
into it. I do have needs sometimes , and I don't want to create one ,
since the I always have the number hanging beside this box of a
letter I just construed to have the box show. I do want it to sit
there and stay there.
Anybody have a solution?

But I never use that part of the store. I get a lot of music from
emusic which has a pay a monthly fee and get a certain number of
songs. Generally get 4 albums a month that way so it is cheaper
than iTunes.

thanks for the people who showed me different ways to getting
artwork, but when I put songs into my iTunes or poetry, lectures
or that sort of thing ( I have stopped buying through iTunes
because of their restrictions), I also use my own pictures, the
ones I have taken,as album pictures. Sometimes iTunes gets ahead of
me and finds the album cover from which my selection has come, but
that seems what iTunes does, even if you don't buy from them, and I
don't.
I used to get the weekly free selection, but they never had
anything I liked, so I quit that, too. And when sometimes they come
up with a classical selection, then there is not a freebe in them.
Someone told me that iTunes now allows you to copy their
selections,but then I have to do all this transferring into mp3s,
because theirs is always in a form you can't copy right away..
While I am not in favor to see all the album covers flit by me as I
am making a selection,I at least see pictures of my cats, my
flowers or my husband's garden crop while I am playing some tune or
poem I imported when itunes did not find the covers automatically.

Anne: select track in iTunes
Apple key (command)+ I Select the art work tab.
Then drag artwork to the box.
Also if the song is playing drag the artwork to the Now Playing box
and it will be copied to the file.
If the file is properly tagged and it is in the iTunes store.
Right click and in the dialog box click on Get Artwork.
You can also use separate programs to get the artwork for iTunes.
Here is one called Cover Scout.

with-CoverScout/0,2000070799,339288298,00.htm
I generally use Google for the album art. Type artist and name of
album
Then click on the images tab at the top of the Google search page.
I always use the biggest version of the album cover I can get.
Makes the file a little bigger but
I am future proofing the file as you never know where the image
will be displayed in the future and those 130x130 pixel album art
pictures are brutal on a hi def TV.

I have some recordings that I put in iTunes. All works fine; however
since I put this together, there is no album art. Is there some way
one can add a picture of their own to iTunes for the album art? Thanks
for any information.
