I just got a new Ipod Classic, and its the first time for me I am using itunes. I need to create an account so that I can get the album work, that is all I need from the store. Is there any way I can create the account and get around having to put in financial information as I do not have a credit card or one that I can use. EDIT: For got to make the question idiot proof the first time around. If you know how to do it, please let me know how to do it, and not that you know how to do it, as it is no help to me unless you explain it.

You're not going to be able to get album work from songs you haven't downloaded from iTUnes.

Yes you can.

yeah you can but i think you have to put in your financial information... even if you never use it... you don't get charged for album artwork

You still have to put the information in. The only other way to get album art work is to put it in yourself. Which I have to do sometimes b/c it doesn't always give you art work or the right album art work.

Okay, I seriously forgot that I posted this on LiveWire. 1. I don't have access to a credit card 2. I need an account to get the Album Work. 3. I need a way to accomplish 2 without 1.

Well, for album artwork, you could 1. Add it manually. :/ Or, two, you can't. They are tools, that want your money, so make it easy for you to spend it once they've got your financial information. Sorry bout that :(

Right click on the song, get info (the first one, where you add info to the song), and go to "Album Artwork" and then after saving the artwork from Google or w/e, select it, open it, and tada. Although, I think that if you edit "View" at the top, theres a way to make it show artwork, and if it doesn't have any, (although I haven't tried), you can drag it from the folder onto there.

crazy4 her are you incapable of reading and understanding?? Tavis, thank you for your help. After that explanation it sounds so easy and it is, but this is my first time with itunes.

I know, it's not an easy thing to get used to, especially for a newcomer. I had to do it at one point in time, when my dad refused to give me his Visa number, so I just gave up.

I have an iTunes account and I didn't put any information like that in. But that was because I went and brought an iTunes giftcard for the value of £15 and put it on there. That's honestly the only way I know how it would work. But it involves spending some money.

I have considered getting a gift card and calling it a day. So I'll go out tomorrow and see if any place around here sells them.

1) Go make a paypal account 2) Use that paypal address to sign up for an account on iTunes. (This will be your payment method) Boom! You got access to all the free album artwork you want :)

I think I neglected to mention that I do not live in the USA and therefore I got an error. I will just give in and buy the cheapest gift card available and redeem it.
