Removing iTunes Artwork

March 30th, 2006 at 2:00 PM - Tips by Jeff Gamet

For some, iTunes art work is a great feature. For others, itis just taking up hard drive space. If you want to remove album cover artwork from tracks either because you need to clear up some extra drive space, or maybe because a particular album cover doesnit suit your fancy, you can delete the graphic files from iTunes with just a couple of mouse clicks. Hereis how:

  • While in iTunes, click the track that has the album art you want to remove.
  • Type Command-I to open the track Get Info window.
  • Click the Artwork tab.
  • Click the album artwork image.
  • Click the Delete button.

If you want to remove album artwork for several tracks, do this:

  • For a group of tracks, click on the first track and Shift-Click on the last track. Alternately, you can click on an album name to select an entire album.
  • Type Command-I to open the track Get Info window.
  • Click the Yes button to confirm that you want to edit information for multiple tracks at once.
  • Click the Artwork check box.
  • Click the OK button.
