Google, amazon etc... find an image and save it as... folder.jpg There are also utilities out there to automate downloading album art, whatever works for you.

OMG, you people have the patience of a saint! ;)

Probably not the place to post this, but I did start a new thread months ago and got no replies. I have so many problems synchronising Napster protected tracks with my C500. I have WMP10 on my PC and the latest ROM on my C500, but when I synchronise tracks it keeps locking up the phone and sometimes WMP10 on my PC after a few tracks. It all works fine if I transfer 1 track at a time, but that's pretty frustrating when you want to fill a 512mb card!

Any advice?!?!

Cheers.

harrysaab, try following these steps:

1. Copy all of the tracks from an album into a folder on your sd card.

2. Call this folder whatever you want (E.G. 'Album 1')

3. Find an image that you want to appear for the album art, but make sure it is less than about 1mb.

4. Name this image folder.jpg (not 'Album 1.jpg' or anything else, just folder.jpg)

5. Then copy this image into the same folder as all of the tracks for this album.

And there you have it!

I'd like to thank bluesxman and roma0803. Without your comments, this walkthrough would not have been possible. ;) :D :D

Since this is completely unnecessary under normal circumstances, that's why nobody mentioned it. It's strange you have to rename under DOS. But hey, it worked for you....

Well looking at your screenshot I reckon you have "hide extensions for known file types" set in windows explorer and what you thought was folder.jpg was folder.jpg.jpg or similar. Anyway, glad you got it working.

Looking at the picture again, that makes sense.
