Album art wrong

When I updated to the new Apple Music, almost all of my album art on my phone was wrong. It's right on my computer. But on my phone it all displays the image of a podcast I subscribe to. Help!

All albums without specific album art are now showing the same random image on iPhone (but not Macbook that houses library) Some of my music has album art and some does not. For the music without any album art I am used to seeing a generic thumbnail image as the album cover, but now all of that music (many artists, albums, etc.) shows the same thumbnail (an actual image) as their album art. Oddly enough, the image that has been adopted is actually the image of a podcast show I listen to. In other words, any music on my iPhone that does not have its own "proper" album art now displays the cover image of the same Podcast show as the album art. When I look at those albums on my Macbook (where the Library resides) it does not have the podcast image for those albums, just the generic thumbnail I am used to. Somehow my iPhone got confused and now uses that podcast show image as the default generic album art if the music doesn't have any of its own. I have tried removing the albums and re-adding them to the iPhone via the Sync process, but the issue remains. Both the Macbook and iPhone are on the latest version of software as of the time of posting (iOS 16.6, Ventura 13.5). Anybody have any ideas of how to remove the incorrect image from all those albums on the iPhone?

iOS Music app splitting albums marked as compilation I’m having issues with album tagged as compilation on the music app. On macOS they show correctly: But on my iPhone they show up as multiple albums, on for each of the artist in the compilation: I’ve read a work around is just using "Various Artists" as the album artist (which I don’t like to do anyway because I don’t want to add a fake artist) but if I do that, yes it shows up as just one album, then it shows the artist from the first song as the album artist instead of "various". I tried checking and unchecking the compilation option and syncing again, but it doesn’t work either. Anyone know a way to fix this?

How can I fix the random display of wrong artwork on synced songs on my iPhone? I synch my phone to my computer and the artwork is correct however, on some songs the wrong artwork is displayed!! It's totally random, most artwork is correct. It just bugs me to no end as I insure I have the correct artwork for my music. I do not buy music from Apple all if not most of my music is what I convert from my albums. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Hi there MusicLoverMadAtChanges,

Based on what you've described occurring with your album artwork, we would recommend getting in touch with Apple Support directly. They will have the tools and resources necessary to investigate why the album artwork is inaccurate on your phone but not your computer. You can reach them here: Get Support.

Happy listening!

Hi!

I’ve already tried that and I really don’t want to start back at the beginning. Can you connect me to someone who can actually help?
