I've been encountering this problem (missing covers) for about two weeks now; in every instance I've found a title folder in the pictures folder with the missing covers. The name of this folder is nearly identical to the original folder that is missing those covers. In several instances there is punctuation in the title, sometimes added punctuation and sometimes what appears to be the same but isn't, e.g., the curved apostrophe instead of the straight 'tick' mark and the single character ellipsis (…) instead of the three consecutive periods that Steve described above. -Mike

I ran into this last week (early April) with several titles, mostly old, long-running DC titles. I found files in the picture folders with the covers I was missing - under folders with a near duplicate name of the title missing those pictures. This first occurred after the first time I selected the option to match titles in my collection to the "correct" version of that title. There seems to be some connection between the two. -Mike

Thanks again for the help here, Steve. Since it contains full reprints of 32 stories, I would vote for Comic Books as the appropriate media type. Also, Bonanza Books is the identified publisher, so that seems to be the one CB should use.

This doesn't appear to be in the database, I found only a 2003 Fantagraphics edition. I think this earlier edition, despite the same title, should be its own entry. Thoughts? Advice?

I thought I used the new drag-and-drop process correctly, though it wasn't successful. I just now tried it again - 30-40 minutes after my initial attempt, and this time it worked. Thanks for the help, Steve! r/Mike

BTW, the correct title of this book is "The Great Women Superheroes" not "... Super Heroes"

I changed the media type for this item from comic book to book based on its content - mostly text with snippets of various comic books scattered throughout to accompany the text. However, I can't seem to get the cover to display. I set Binding Type = Hardcover, Edition = Regular Edition, and unchecked "part of a numbered series" since it was a one-shot publication. Help correcting whatever mistake(s) I've made would be appreciated. r/Mike

Ditto - seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks!

Could the obscenity charges and subsequent litigation that took place possibly explain why the magazine isn't in the database?

Looks like b2847 did the trick 100% successfully. Thanks for the fast update and the info about it!

I just installed the latest update (update 2794) and now when I use CTRL<T> to search for a title, the first letter typed jumps to that part of the alphabet - as usual - but the second letter entered doesn't register, nor does a third letter if I go that far. I'm selecting from the "series in stock" set of titles. Example: Enter "a" and "A-1 Comics" is highlighted in the list, as it's the first title in my collection that starts with the letter A. At this juncture, that title is highlighted in the list, but doesn't fill in the title cell at the top of the list. Now, I want Adventure Comics, so next I type "d" but this keeps A-1 Comics highlighted and also now inserts it in the title cell at the top. When I press on and type the letter v, the logic that should jump to Adv(enture Comics) doesn't happen; instead the list jumps to the first title in my collection that starts with the letter V. This feature worked normally before I downloaded and installed the new update 2794. Any thoughts or advice? r/Mike

Cool - thanks!

The last update added Action Comics #1084 variants B, C, D, and F, but not the standard issue (A). Should I expect this to be corrected with the next update or should I add that issue and then upload it? r/Mike

Thanks for correcting my typo, Greg.

Please change the hardcover book "Marvel Masterworks Pin-Ups" to its correct name: "Marvel Masterwork Pin-ups." r/Mike
