Sounds confusing.... ;)

Have you tried manually drag and drop the picture files on to the songs? Also are you using JPEGs?
 
Still struggling

Yes this is the way i have been adding artwork, but i have tried get info etc fixing permissions using a smaller image i am at my wits end as to what the problem is. Anyone have this problem before ?
 
Fixed

I tracked down the problem as the new version of CD spin doctor that i use to record my vinyl. This comes with toast titanium 9. If i convert the tracks to aiff in itunes (although i thought they already were) the artwork can be added. I hope this helps someone out in the future
 
Hmmm

I have CD Spin Doctor.. it didn't affect my adding.

Do You have the latest version that comes with toast 9 ? Its very strange i was sure i found the problem ! I export active tracks to the desktop in aiff format and then import these into itunes. Perhaps i am doing something wrong ? I know if i convert them again in itunes to aiff they get a little smaller and then i can add artwork. Perhaps this is a permissions problem ? Either way i'm baffled !!
