My question is, When i place a song into virtual DJ and play it it comes up with a nice cover photo

 

( https://gyazo.com/ae07a55f89625ef1359bc6149491467c )

 

But when i place it into i tunes and into my phone it will not come up with a cover photo at all. Just the stock Music note 

 

( https://gyazo.com/704702b103931a972b2962641955aed9 )

 

The original song is a MP3 File. So why wont it show up on i tunes but it will show up on the virtual DJ program? Thanks

Just use itunes and right-click on the song/album and use "get info" and add album artwork.(if it doesn't work, try checking on the file itself and untick "read only" while on properties)

 

virtual dj might just be using any image that is in the same folder or has an online database of artwork

If you can be arsed doing it, you can manually edit the cover photo using a program like Mp3tag.

better yet, use itunes "get info" feature

i did not buy it from itunes so will the get album artwork still work? 

If you did not buy mp3 tracks from itunes then they likely do not have a cover photo added to the mp3 files, edit them manually with the program i linked above.

you can use itunes. inb4 use "get info" don't use "get album artwork" since this feature needs an itunes bought song to work.

 

get info allows you to add the album artwork of your choice by choosing an image file.

I'm pretty sure it won't have every album cover in existence, in which case it's better to do it manually. Also, downloading mp3's outside of itunes my  mean that it does not have proper tags (i.e year when album was released) again, which can be fixed with Mp3tag. 

Stop trying to push that PoS feature within itunes.

get info is manual.

 

you're scrutinizing something you don't even know anything about.
