Burning Order

I finally took the time today to place my songs from my playlist in the order I wanted it to play, but upon listening, none of my songs are playing in the order I want except the first 2 songs.
I've searched the settings in iTune but can not/ don't know what to look for.
Can someone please help!
Thanks, awaiting replies...

Sorry for this being in the wrong section, but for the life of me, i couldn't figure out how to make a thread.
I Love keeping track of what songs Ive played and how many times with the Itunes Play count. But there was some sort of glitch or something and all my playcounts have dramatically Boosted with the main playlist i listen too.. My songs were in the 200's with play count. then one day they all randomly jumped to 800's.. this is quite disappointing.... but now i have to figure out how to reset the play count, since i cannot see any way it is going to be restored to how they were.... thanks apple. thought these inconveniences only happened with Microsoft. XD

ITunes10 burns playlist in messed-up track order

I have a 17 track playlist and I want to burn it exactly in the order the tracks are positioned. I edited all tracks being part of a compilation, named them the same album, edited the track numbers, marked 'remember playback position' and 'part of a gapless album'.
I burned 3 cd's and each time, iTunes burns the tracks by artist in alphabetical order.
How can I make iTunes burn so that it respects the order of the tracks in the playlist?

How can i create a playlist of various artists in a specific order? No matter how I do it, when I burn it, it burns in a different order

Everytime I make a playlist with various artists, the order changes when it burns. Help!

itunes won't burn playlist in right order
How do i move songs in my playlists so there are in a specific order?

Burning list label

My label is printing out of burning order when i have go to print after the cd has burnt. I can print it in order in the burning playlist but it throws it into alphabetical list in completion of disc does anyone know how to fix this and where i go to to do this

I can't believe how many people are having the same problem.
I have loaded loads on and taken me most of the morning and not all the tracks are installed. Some are like 40 secs long then some are longer.
As well as it freezing on me then I have to force quit and start again.

Importing photos in order

I have a disc of photos to import that I want to keep in order. The photos come from several sources with assorted titles. How do I keep the burn order of the disc in an event folder?

Try the following: drag the CD with the photo into the sidebar of iPhoto creating an album as it imports the files. Then check the album to see what the order is. If it's not what you want set the sort to manual, arrange them in the order you want and the Batch Change->Date to whatever date you want with 1 minute intervals between images. You can have that date and time written to the original files or not. Then in any event that's sorted by date ascending they will be in the original order from the CD.
I'm guessing they are in alphanumerical order as that's the order the Finder users.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I copied a smart playlist to a regular playlist in order to change the order of the individual selections. I then burned the regular playlist to a cd, but the cd burned it in alphabetical order as it appears on the smart playlist.

I changed the order, then burned a cd but the cd copied the songs in the order of the smart playlist, which was alphabetical. What am i doing wrong in this scenario, and is there a way to change the song order in a smart playlist? I am a new MAC user. Is this unique to the MAC format?

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 usually make two playlists.
One playlist with favorites I do want on the iPod and another smart playlist to fill the rest of the iPod. Just limit the size to th esize of the iPod minus wthe size of my iPod selection playlist.

How do I burn a playlist from itunes to CD in same order as playlist?

My playlist has songs in the order I want them burned, but when I click burn it burns them in a random order onto the CD? I tried dragging the songs 1 by 1 to the CD icon on my desktop and numbered & organised them in the order I wanted them burned, selected them all and clicked burn in the CD window and it said it copied only 1 song. When I played the CD it was blank?? This question was answered in an earlier post but the answer was incomplete and vague and didnt help. I never had this problem before, is it a bug in the current itunes upgrade? Help me pleeease?

Usually, sorting on Artist or Album will show the correct order in which the tracks also are burned on CD.
If the tracks are burned out of order, the track numbers might be incorrect.
Sorting on the first column (with the numbers), allows you to drag the tracks in any order you want. iTunes will then burn the tracks in that order.

ITunes burning albums/playlists in reverse order

BURNING CD's IN REVERSE TRACK ORDER... (Version 8.2.1)
Here is the solution to this problem that has been ruining all of my blank cd's.
I was viewing all of my albums and playlists in the "grid" view. The solution is to simply switch to "list" view. Now, when clicking the little black arrow in the column heading for play order, to the left of the track name, all of the numbers should remain the same, with 1 at the top and the last track at the bottom. The actual tracks will reverse each time you click the arrow, but the numbers will stay the same, allowing you to actual be changing the order.
If you are in "grid" view, clicking on the little black arrow in that column will reverse the view of the tracks, but if you notice, a track with play order of 7 will stay with that associated file name even if you click it.
Switch to "list" view and a track with a play order of 7 will change to a different track after clicking the arrow. You will now be able to un-reverse any playlists or albums you are having problems with.

ALSO...
If you create your playlist from an album that is in "grid" view, the tracks will be reversed and you will not be able to un-reverse the playlist by changing views. It doesn't make any sense, but try switching to list view before selecting the album/tracks you want to create the playlist from.
I guess this is the actual solution, more than my previous post.
I hope I was not the only person frustrated by this problem for so long...

ITunes 10.6.3 keeps generating incomplete downloads AND it rearranges the order of the playlist when I burn a playlist to an mp3 cd

iTunes 10.6.3 keeps generating incomplete downloads AND it rearranges the order of the playlist when I burn a playlist to an mp3 cd.
I purchased an album on iTues from my MAC book Pro & the song downloads were incomplete. The song length shows correctly in the column, but they cut off between 1/4 & 1/2 way through the songs. Now, I dwonloaded it on my iPhone 4 through my itunes account after the purchase & the songs play fine. This happened with the very next song I purchased, as well.
I got around this issue, then created mp3 versions of all the songs, put them in their own playlist, then "Burned an mp3 disc." When it completed, the songs were in a different order.
Are there any fixes for either of these problems/bugs?

I am trying to burn a DVD from an iphoto album, I placed it in the order I want , but it does not burn in that order, and has picked up other photos not in the album

I have created an album of phots, moved into order I want to burn, cd and dvd. It burned out of order in album and also added pictures not in Album highlighted to burn. Also was hard to view all pictures and move more quickly into order to view. I am use to using powerpoint and shows all slides at 1 time small thumnails so easy to move

Re the order on the DIsk:
When you export from iphoto you are in the Finder and that doesn't have the same sorting options as iPhoto. There is no "manual" sorting in the Finder, for instance.
Here's one (of several) way(s) to do what you want:
Make an Album of the photos, then drag the pics into your preferred order.
Then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
Sort on Filename in the FInder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.
Burn that to the disk.
I'm sorry but I haven't a clue what the rest of your query is about.

Itunes keeps shuffling the songs out of order when i burn a CD

I have no idea why this is happening. The shuffle is turned off. I just installed the new version with the same results. Thanks in advance for any help.

It is a weird bug that shows up unpredictably.
The following workaround sometimes help: start a new playlist and add the same songs to it. Make sure the little triangle is above the number column, and get the songs into the right order. Then do the burn from the new playlist.

HT1399 how do I shuffle the order of my playlists that I want to burn to cd?

I'm trying to shuffle my playlist order prior to burning to a cd. The only options I seem to have are to order the songs by date, genre, artist, length, name, title, etc.....nothing to shuffle. I am burning over 300 songs and to sort in a random manner one by one is ridiculous. Also, how can you quickly delete duplicates in a play list or your library? Itunes flags them all, but that means I need to go deselecting every other line, again, a ridiculous amount of work.
thanks,

By the way...why is my user name ApplesRotten???? wth?

I’m going to get the I Mac and since the new I Mac doesn’t have DVD drive on it I was thinking to get the Samsung SE-506AB Slim Portable Blu-ray Writer in order to burn movies from I movie do I need a special software for that since the SE-506ab comes only with windows software.. but I did check and it is compatible with apple. Can you please advise me and or let me know if I’m buying the right stuff or if there is any other blu ray that will work with the I mac as plug and play.
Thank you

This freezing reminds me of really old Macs, long ago, in the days of the old-school peripherals like SCSI drives, terminators, scanners and the like. If you had a SCSI conflict, like the wrong device ID's or something, you'd freeze up like that. Back in those days you'd call 800-SOS-APPLE (AAPL?) and they'd run you through disconnecting all your extra hardware - Jaz and Zip drives, CD burners, scanners etc and then eliminate them one by one by adding them incrementally and testing for the freeze/bomb dialog.
But, today we have Firewire and none of those ancient issues (no free lifetime tech support either). My iMac's ports are all full, and I only know which devices are connected when I have to remove something for another device. iSight, scanner, card reader, external hard drive, USB soundsticks, etc. You wouldn't happen to have any SCSI devices hooked up, would you?
Out of curiosity, have you tried a different USB/Firewire port for the hard drive? Or run the hardware test DVD that comes with your computer? This weird freezing seems to suggest a problem with the computer, RAM or network more than a device. Bad devices, in my experience, cause kernel panics, not freezing.
