MPMediaItemArtwork is null while cover is available in iTunes

Question

The UIImage \"image\" is always empty (\"null\") though the cover is shown in the music app by apple. in iOS 7 it works fine, but with iOS 8 I get no cover.

Answer 1

i´ve found the problem.

it´s

 CGSize artworkImageViewSize = CGSizeMake(100, 100);

the following works:

 CGSize artworkImageViewSize = CGSizeMake(120, 120);

or

 CGSize artworkImageViewSize = CGSizeMake(60, 60);

everything that can be divided by 3 works.
