and here is my CDB file:

This is the version of CBD that iTunes no longer recognises.

Thank you for the useful info!

It explains why I cannot replicate this as I don't have iTouch 3rd gen, but iTouch 4rd gen

Version 1493 has only partially fixed the problem. iTunes no longer reports the error, however all album art is wiped on the Touch Gen3

i.e.
Delete existing music on Touch
Open iTunes and ensure 'Sync Music' is unselected in the Music Tab
Close iTunes
Open MM and sync some MP3's that have Album Art in their tags
Close MM and check result on Touch (Album Art is present)
Open iTunes
Sync Apps if not auto-synced
- have checked and the problem only seems to occur when Apps are synced, irrespective of whether they are auto-synced or manually synced.
Close iTunes and check result on Touch (Album Art is gone)

As per my earlier feedback, exactly the same process for my iPhone 4S with same MM & iTunes settings works fine, i.e. there is no loss of artwork

Hi all,

I still have a problem with build 1493 though it appears to be a different problem. I am synching a collection of ab 1600 tunes and I tunes crashes after about 600 tunes - though it appears to vary. I am using the debug build and it generates an error report but it appears to die completely when I hit the submit button.

The error message I get is:

I've saved a copy of the itunesCDB file at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/80428042/iTunesCDB_MM but it seems very small.

There is also a copy of a dbgview log at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/80428042/MM_error.log if that helps.

This also appears to be a problem with build 1492 but not with build 1491 which had the separate problem of iTunes no longer recognising my 3rd gen ipod touch.

Thanks

Adrian

Re: The missing artwork, this issue will be fixed in build 1494 by the same fix as http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=9375

Re: the crash: It looks like you are using an older iPhoneCalc.dll for some reason, did you close MM before reinstalling?
Try to install 1493 to a new speparate folder (e.g. a 'Portable' install) and give a try to see whether the crash still appears.

Yep it does look like IPhoneCalc.dll was an old version. The date on the file was some time in 2010. I uninstalled then reinstalled. It seems to work fine now and the crash has gone. Thanks.

And I can confirm the Album Art issue is resolved for me in v 1494. Excellent work guys.
