    Ed - by sequence of numbers, are you talking about the rectangle with the arrow that sorts by track number?  I've tried to follow your directions to Mona but my playlist still gets burned to CD in alpha order.  driving me crazy.  any other suggestions?   thanks, Chris
    Chris, The sequence number is the first column of numbers, to the left of the Name column.  It always goes 1, 2,3  etc.  It is not the same as the Track Number, which has its own column.
    As a precaution before burning, make sure that Shuffle is tunred off, and that you right-click the playlist name and choose 'Copy to Play Order"  (although technically they should not affect the burn).

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple. 

  • Album Artist sort order

    When I sort by Album Artist, it sorts, but the next level of sorting seems to be the artist then I'm not sure what it sorts by? I prefer the tree to go Album Artist>Album>Track number, is there any way to modify this?

    In the iTunes the Album by Artist view ordering is:-
    <Sort Album Artist OR Album Aritst OR Sort Artist OR Artist>, <Album>, <Disc No.>, <Track No.>
    On the iPod, Cover Flow ordering is:-
    <Sort Artist OR Artist>, <Album>, <Disc No.>, <Track No.>
    Where the OR uses the first non-blank value. In iTunes you can use Sort Artist to make a number of different artist values sort as one & display as one entry in the browser list. On the iPod this will group an album as one unit for the Album & Cover Flow view, however the Artist menu may still display the individual values put in the Artist field often listed thus:-
    Artist
    Artist/Guest 1
    Artist
    Artist/Guest 2
    Artist/Guest 3
    Artist
    etc.
    I use the Sort Artist field myself, in preference to putting all guest artist info. into the track title, but it's worth noting the side effects of doing so. Hopefully at some point the iPod sorting rules will be changed to match that of iTunes.

  • Artist sort order problem

    Hi.
    I have music sync'd via iTunes Match from my laptop to my iPad and to my iPhone. The names and order appear correct on both the laptop and on the iPad but on the iPhone several artists are either shown in all lower case or the last name will be used by the sort, rather than the first.
    I've reset the artist, album artist and sort artist tags to different names (and they show up correctly then on the iPhone) and then set them back, but the problem remains.
    I'm thinking that the iPhone has a corrupt file somewhere - but how can I reset that without losing everything on the phone?
    A factory reset and restore from iCloud results in the same problem.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks guys.
    --Cynan.

    I also have an Artist sort order problem. While the circumstances are quite different from yours, I wonder if it's due to a similar corruption problem. I don't use iTunes Match. I found Kenny G listed under letter T.

    No I didn't even read through your post, to long.
    You said that "No matter what program I try to install, as soon as the installer opens it crashes". Were you talking about the install for this/these 3D programs or ANY program? As it is worded it sounded like ANY program. That tells me there is a problem with your Mac, software or hardware.
    Now you say others install programs, which is it. Programs other then the 3D ones install or no programs install?
    Could simply be your Mac is to old to run these programs and the installer knows that. You never said what model or year Mac it is.

  • Artist sort order and TSOP tags

    Can someone please help me understand how tagging and sort orders behave on an iPhone in advance of my buying one.
    I like to browse my music library by artist and, for example, I prefer to have "David Bowie" sort under "B" rather than "D". I believe that the spec for ID3v2.4 tags added the TSOP (Text Sort Order Performer) to over-ride the sorting order. Does the software on the iPhone take notice of the TSOP (or any alternative) tags when browsing by artist so that I can sort in the way I want?
    - Julian

    Sort order can either be set in iTunes or, if tagging using other programs before importing into iTunes, then the correct tags names to add are "Sort Artist" and "Sort Album" which will then be recognised by iTunes.

  • Itunes Compilation Ordering Help

    Hiya all, my itunes seems to have gone crazy....
    On a number of compilations it seems to be sorting the tracks in alphabetical rather than track order and it is driving me mad. It is not all of my compilations though, just a random assortment.
    I have double and triple checked all of the tags and they are fine, have tried playing the same albums in winamp and wmp and they play in track order.
    This has only started happening recently and I cant for the life of me figure out why.
    Any help you guys could offer me would be great! Thanks a lot.
    I have attached a screenshot to better explain what I mean, the top compilation (tidy boys summer seaside special discs 1 and 2) is sorted by alphabetical artist name, yet the highlighted one underneath it is sorted my track number.
    =(

  • Iphone 6 pre-order help

    Any thoughts on what do to do about the following scenario?:
    10/06/14: "pre-order" iPhone 6 and 6+ in 64gb and 16gb respectively as well as cases and accessories, etc. at local Verizon store with
                     expected ship date 11/14/14. Note: also informed my bank card would not be charged for the accessories until shipment.
    10/30/14: go back to Verizon store and change order to up both phones to 128gb with new ship date 11/21/14.
    week of 11/21/14: order pushed back to 12/12/14 (found this out on website, no email received from Verizon stating this).
    12/04/14: call "customer care" to check on order due to no activity on order status on myverizon only to find out that the order was cancelled.
                    Representative didn't know why, and offered to place a new order over the phone but the shipment would now be 12/19/14 (which
                    I thought was pretty generous considering I did not want it cancelled in the first place, nor did I even know it was cancelled
                    until I called for myself).
    12/04/14 (later that day): go to Verizon store to see if I could get more information on why my order was cancelled unbeknownst to me. Employee
                    looks into it and states that "the order has not been cancelled, I don't know why you were told that but it's not cancelled."  Informed
                    employee that I re-ordered the phones over the phone with "customer care" prior to coming down here and asked if that's what he was
                    seeing. Replies: "I see the order, it was cancelled due to supply, but has the same shipment date (12/19/14), don't worry it wasn't
                    cancelled you'll get your phones just hang in there." So basically I was informed that I have an order with the same shipping date
                    (which I already knew because I had to re-order but yet the answer to my question was seemingly that was and was not cancelled). Hm.
    12/12/14: receive an email with instructions on how to back-up our devices while we are "eagerly waiting for our phones." Looking good so far.
    12/15/14: my bank card is charged for the accessories and there is new documents in myverizon detailing the equipment purchases. Looking great now.
    12/16/14: receive an email stating the order for the 6+ has been cancelled. Immediately call "customer care" and rep says she sees it was cancelled and
                    does not know why. She asks if I'll hold while she looks into it. 30 minutes later a different person comes on the line, and has no idea who I am, or
                    that I've been holding for 30 minutes while someone was "helping me", so I explain why I'm calling and that someone was supposedly helping me,
                    he says he will transfer me to "customer care" and then click, the line goes dead, awesome.
    12/16/14(later that day): once again I venture to the Verizon store to find out what is going on.  Different employee this time, but story is the same.  He tells
                   me that the 6+ was cancelled but can not tell me why.  He also states that it says there is a pending order for this particular line so he can't place any
                   orders. This was apparently as quixotic to me as him, thus leading him to consult abother employee.  Employee "2" was initially adamit that the order
                   was cancelled but when employee "1" showed her that the upgrade status said pending order, she said the "system" takes 24-72 hours to "catch up."
                  (Keep in mind that when the first round of phantom cancellations occurred I was able to re-order that same day, in fact probably within a matter of
                   hours. whatever.) So I brought up the fact that my bank card was charged for the accessories the day before, and employee "1" says (in affirmation
                   of what I was told during the very first order in October) that charges are only made when the order is ready to ship. So with that tidbit of info they
                   came to the conclusion that I'll have to wait until 12/19/14 or that following Monday to see if I have a phone or not because at this point "anything
                   with a pending status can not be accessed and calling 'customer care' won't be of any help because they will not be able to do anything either."
                  So I do the only thing I'm able to at that point, leave. Note: I was generously given the option of returning the accessories for the 6+ should i find
                  out that my phone does not arrive on the 19th or following Monday. (this was a huge relief because I was worried I might be stuck with a case and
                  screen protector for a phone I'd never get.)
    12/16/14(even later that day): despite being told that doing so would be futile, I call "customer care". Explained the entire story thus far and expressed my
                   disappointment. The rep was understanding.  She told me that the order for the 6+ has been cancelled but can not explain why.  I asked about the
                   charges to my bank card, she says (in contradiction to what I've been told all along) that sometimes the cases/accessories will come before phones
                    are ready to ship. Hmm. She also says the order for the other line (iPhone 6) will "definitely be coming on the19th still." This is interesting because I
                    have not received any shipping confirmation email (though to be fair I also never got them for the first round of cancellations either.) She further
                    explains that she can not do anything about the 6+ order because the system has not "caught up with the cancellation" (ok, heard that earlier
                    but still does not make sense seeing as I was able to re-order before) and advises that she would be able to give me a call back Sunday morning
                    (12/21/12) to process the 6+ order again (again). So, I agreed as its either that or not get the phone (although if I don't get the phone I can
                    still return the accessories for it at the Verizon store thankfully.)
    12/17/14: receive email notification that the order for the iPhone 6 has, you probably can guess it, but nonetheless, been cancelled. So what do I do you ask?
                    The answer is simple, nothing. Going to the store would be a waste of time and gas, and calling "customer care" would be a waste of time and my
                    plans (albeit unlimited) minutes. So I decide to wait until Sunday, for the rep to "supposedly" call me back, so I can re-order what will now probably
                    both phones only to be told the expected shipment dates are now January 2015, even though it will probably be fruitless because they will be,
                    as history has foretold, cancelled within a week or two. But holding onto a sliver of hope because the rep said the one line (iphone 6) will
                    "definitely be coming 12/19/14".
    12/19/14: no iphone 6+ (no surprise). No iPhone 6 (a little surprised only because it was "definitely coming", but it's a very little). Still have the charge to
                   my bank card for the accessories, no accessories though (still, not really surprised) but at least I'll be able to return the accessories I don't have
                   for the phones we'll never get, so that's a plus I guess. No shipping confirmation, though I don't know why I'd hope for one seeing as the orders
                   were cancelled. Again. (But at least I got an email this time.)
    So I need help.  We love Apple stuff and we want the new iPhones, but by the time we'd get them from Verizon our trade-ins will probably be too old for
    the Edge program or the iphone 6S or 7 will be out. We have a family shared plan with 6 lines and moving to another carrier would be a pain (although
    probably easier than what we've been through thus far with Verizon.) Ive heard ordering through Apple is the best route but you can't set up the Edge through them so that's out. I call the store every Friday (which I've been told is when they receive their order) but they never have the phones in, so that's also seemingly out. So I guess my question is does anyone know how to order the new iPhones on the Edge program and actually get them In a reasonable time? Otherwise I think we'll probably take our 15 year old account elsewhere. Thanks to anyone who reads/helps with this and sorry for the rant, I'm a little disheartened.

    ***Update: the rep that said she'd call me back, well, she didn't.  Also, someone with a Verizon avatar and a "_VZW" in their name replied to this saying he would be willing to give me the "status" of my order, so I responded (even though I don't want the status as much as I'd like our phones), twice, and nothing back from him either. So, today our bill has the charges for our new phones on them. Yet we don't have our phones, nor is there anything leading me to believe that we will ever get them. Lol. Verizon has disappointed me in the past 2 months and I think I've been more than patient with them.

  • How can I make a smart playlist sort album by artist in order of size?

    I'm trying to figure out a way to make a playlist of songs I generally like from a very large library to fit on my iPod. The songs aren't rated, and I don't want to have a totally random selection chosen by a smart playlist.
    I thought a good way to pare down the list would be to sort album by artist, and then filter that list in order of the size that each artist takes up. It's more important to get rid of an artist that I don't like that also hogs a lot of space than one that maybe only has one track. I figure if I could scan down the list and exclude the worst offenders, it conceivably would make the task much simpler.

  • Sales order help needed

    Hi,
    I have a requirement, where client is creating a custom sales order form and my task is to write a package to book, delete and change sales order when the user presses button in the front end. The custom form calls my package when book order is pressed and the form send parameters which I need to pass to my book order procedure to book an order.
    I haven't worked on oracle forms and I am not sure how the parameters are passed and what parameters will be there or are they stored in pl/sql tables.
    So any help will be greatly appreciated.

    You need to design your PLSQL package procedures in a same way as you would wne your API was called from another PLSQL package, as calling module (forms in this case) will be able to call your API.
    Check "OE_Order_PUB.Process_Order" and create your custom API based on this standard API from Oracle.
    So any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Pre-Order Help?

    After a long day of running errands, I am finally getting home and looking at all the hype about the Droid 2 since the pre-orders started. Originally, I was considering going to my local VZW store when it opened and ordering my D2 there. However, I am seeing that if you pre-order it on the website, you can have it tomorrow. However, is it too late, 8 EST, for me to pre-order it and have it tomorrow? I am in no hurry for it, but I'd prefer to get away from my enV2 ASAP. I'm also worried that my local store may sell-out and I'd be out of luck completely. Any opinions as to what my best option would be? Any help is very much appreciated!

    Order it online, with next day delivery ($8.99).  It is probably too late today.  If you order it online, you get the "instant rebate" - which is another way of saying a $100 discount.  I've read somewhere that if you get the phone in the store, you get a $100 debit card...but don't take my word for it...call and ask VZW if you have concern about it.
    As far a selling out...get it online, and you should receive it by Monday.  if you JUST HAVE TO HAVE IT...go to the store, but you'll have to wait for the $100 credit/card/check/whatever.
