Prevent artwork synch in iTunes for iPhone I want to turn off my artwork synch!  I don't care if I have the artwork or not!  Is there a work around for doing this?  My phone always gets locked in a loop when synching and it is "stuck" on step 8 of 8 backing up artwork!
You can do a bit of a clumsy workaround. 

First you have to select all your songs on iTunes, right-click and select Clear Downloaded Artwork. Than you can sync your library with your iPhone. After that you can download your artworks again. So you have your artworks on your computer, but not on your iPhone.
