How to repair: Wrong artwork showing up for some iPod songs on iPod screen
This appears to be only a temporary solution. For me, the problem crept back in after a few weeks.
[NOTE: This method will lose any assignment you have set of "checked" and "unchecked" songs. At the end of this process, all songs will be "checked."]
- Connect iPod to computer & sync
- Click Devices > (your iPod)
- In OPTIONS, make sure that "Sync only checked songs and videos" is CHECKED
- Click Library > Music
- Click any song name
- Press Ctrl-A to select all songs
- Right click & pick "uncheck selection" (all songs will be unchecked)
- Sync (this will remove all songs from your iPod)
- Click any song name
- Press Ctrl-A to select all songs
- Right click & pick "check selection" (all songs will become checked)
- Sync (this will load all songs back into your iPod - it will take a long time)
- Comment here to let the readers know if this method worked or not

Damn - My problem was the worst! But finally i have a solution - awesome stuff man!!!
YES!!! Finally. As well i have been dealing with this issue on my iPhone4 for a couple months as well, but not any longer. THANX for posting the fix !!!
I have found it also works to restore the iPhone completely from a back-up. Also very time-consuming, and the wrong album art problem will creep back up after a few weeks.
Hopefully Apple is fixing this in iOS5
thanks for the help. It works.
Thankyou so much. I'm horrible with computers so this was very helpful.
OMG THANK YOU THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH I still dont know if I did it correctly but it worked omg this is amazing this has been bugging me so much thz you
THANK YOU!
Unfortunately, this happened to me in iOS 5. Apple please fix this in the next software update.
album artwork was fine but when it went to the ipod it just was completely wrong wtf
This is AWESOME!! THANKS DUDE! :D
this is awesome! it worked
Thankyou so much, of course the album pictures didn't really matter but it really bothered me. It bothered me to the point where I just HAD to fix it. Thankyou so much.
thanx man
I think this happens when you pause the song at 0.00 seconds left (just as it is about to finish. I had this problem just after I did that.
It worked for me and i'm glad because listening to Chris Brown and looking at a Jill Scott. Thanks, dude!
thank you so much!!!
