Burning playlist to disk comes out alphabetically.

Burning a playlist to disk comes out alphabetically. How can I made it numerical, like the songs are arranged in the playlist?

Thankyou for your advice... Although after fiddling around with it last night, I actually found out how to do it
The only thing that confuses me is that I can no longer burn to disk a playlist that I have created for the iPod itself, but instead I now have to copy that playlist into the playlist folder at the bottom of the left hand pane and copy it from there... But at least I have it working now Thankyou.

Photos burned on a disk come out printed blurry

HI I need help, i dont use my printer to print photos i send a disc to a local Kodaks, the thing is is that i choose the photos then i click BURN, once thats finished and i go to print them they come out blurry ,( Not to mention the faces that increase my pictures 3 times ) not as clear this is driving me crazy , now when i read on I photo help it said i should export to a file outside of i photo before i burn, is this necessary? If so why is the burn option on my I photo toolbar if it were not to be used? PLease help since I love to have my photos printed professionally and its getting frustrating. Thank you very much, waiting for your reply.

Do not use the iPhoto burn command - that makes a mini iPhoto library suitable only for use by iPhoto - select the photos you want to print and export them (file menu ==> export) to a desktop folder and burn that folder to a disk - then delete the desktop folder
now when i read on I photo help it said i should export to a file outside of i photo before i burn, is this necessary?
Humm - you already had the answer - of course doing it the right way is necessary.

Burn playlist and songs mix out of order

I burn my playlist and when it is finished the songs shuffle out of order on the burned CD. I have removed the songs and made a new playlist,then burned a new copy and this did not work.

I'm not 100% sure but I think you create your play order manually then select the playlist, right click it (or use ctrl+click) & select "Copy to play order".
I think when you burn that playlist it should obey that order, it has been so long since I made a mix CD that I'm not certain, good luck.

Burned playlist to data DVD; song out of order

Why would "Burn Playlist to Disk' change the order of the songs in a playlist? Mine came our sorted by album name...not in the order I created in the playlist.
Have I got some setting wrong?

by album. I've tried all the variations of "album" too, by clicking on it a few times.
But I just discovered that if I don't have the track number listed in the Info section, that it gets out of order. I've manually changed a few and it has worked. Just wish I got it before it went into the system.

Why do I keep getting a message "insert blank disk" when trying to burn playlist to cd?

Why do I keep getting a message "insert blank disk" when trying to burn playlist to cd? I can import burned cds to iTunes just fine, but cannot burn playlist to disk.

because you have to be using a blank cd-rw or cd-r.

ITunes broken? Burn playlist stopped working

Was burning a series of CDs from my iTunes library. Working great, then suddenly stopped working altogether.
Inserting a blank CD will open it in the finder as a burnable disk. Clicking "burn playlist to disk" no longer causes anything to happen.
Given there are no symptoms, error messages, anything... not sure where to begin with this.

When I try to burn a playlist onto a CD, the songs come out in a different order on the CD. What am I doing wrong?

When I burn a playlist to a CD, the songs come out in the wrong order. They appear to be in the order I want in the playlist. Any ideas what's wrong? I am using a dell laptop with Itunes for windons.

WOW. That's a new one...
Check out: https://discussions.apple.com/message/3972820#3972820
Something to do with having the shuffle button enabled.
Otherwise...
Are you sure you didn't accidentally hit the "Name" header before burning?
Does it actually PLAY in alpha order or are you looking at the disk in Windows explorer...?
If none of the above is true, the most likely possibiltiy is that the playlist is corrupt. (I've been using iTunes since V1- have over a hundred playlists and that's never happened) Anyway, there's no way to "fix" a CD once it's been burnt.
So... create a NEW playlist (you might even try with a couple different songs first just as a test) if that works, just copy desired songs to a new Playlist, and burn again.
If THAT doesn't work, it's possible your iTunes files (Library.itl / .xml) are corrupt. There's an article in the knowlegebase called something like "Recreate? or rebuild? your iTunes Library" that explains exactly where these files dwell, and how to reconstruct it.

Burn CD's come out shuffled??!!!

Whenever I try to burn a CD the CD comes out and all the songs are in a different order than in the playlist chosen. I cannot find any settings that would control this and it is getting very old!

I just realized that I have the same problem (been a while since I put in any sort of CD, so don't know when it started or what might have triggered it). My Mac Pro's Superdrive recognizes DVDs, blank or not, but no CDs, blank or not, commercial software or burned discs.
Resetting PRAM didn't help. Would like to know if this is a software/settings problem or hardware problem before I take any drastic measures.

Burns come out blank

g4, 22 GB free space. i've been trying to burn a dvd imported from iMovie and all I get after several hours at Stage 4 is a blank dvd. I terminated the burn in all cases, the longest being over 24 hours. This has happened 4 times. I've burned dvd's in the past using this method and it's always worked fine. Any ideas or thoughts?
Thank you so much in advance.......

Hi David,
So sorry about the delay. My DSL service has been out all weekend. My project is a slideshow of photos about 30 minutes in length. There are several movie clips included. I'm using a DVD-R disk. I'm not wasting any disks. They all come out completely blank. I know this to be true because I burned some data on one after a failed burn just to see if it was, indeed, blank. I'm having trouble finding out how to create a disk image. Not sure what to create it from. Everything seems to be greyed out when I try. Are you saying create it from the burn option in iDVD or the one in Disk Utility? Either way, everything associated with the project is greyed out!?

New problem. I can not burn a playlist to disk.

New problem. I can not burn a playlist to disk. The 'checking playlist' now takes about one second, looks very much like a malfunction here. Seems to initialize the disk - them moves straight into 'burning/finalizing disk' which also takes about one second. Then 'burning - finishing disk takes a little longer -
Error reading is "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The disk drive didn't respond properly an can't recover.'
This happend once before a while back and I thought it was 'too skinny disks'. Using 'printable disks; seemed to fix the problem - until now.
Blank cd's can be opened in the finder and files burnt to them.
DVD's can be burned from DVD Pro.
Music cd's and dvd's can be played.
Just can't burn the itunes playlist.

From your iMac? OS 10.9.2? iTunes? Other? please give as much info as you can about your system hardware and peripherals, OS, software, etc. Is this misbehavior new? First try? You get the idea, too much info is not possible.

When I burn dvd in iPhoto, it comes out with original photo plus separate close up photos of each face in original photo. How do I get it to stop doing that?

I am reading this post in the iphoto for iOS forum. The iPad does not burn photos to a DVD. Perhaps you'll get some assistance if you posted in th general iPhoto forum.

Burned CDs come out with static, and stop/skip. Why?

The CDs I've tried to burn come out with fuzzy static and pause momentarily at times. I have tried altering the writing speed (I've tried 1X, 4X, and "maximum possible") and playing the discs in the car, cd player, and computer (all produce the same result). I can hear the music, but with the fuzz and momentary pauses it's annoying to listen to. Also, the burned CDs play at a much softer volume level than, say, the radio in my car--so much so that I deafen myself whenever I change out the CDs and the radio kicks in.
What's going wrong? Is this an iTunes problem I can fix? The burner is new from Dell a year ago and never been used, so I don't think it's that. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
Dell Latitude C840 (PP01X) Windows 2000

Try going to dell.com and download all updates for your system on there site, especailly firmware updates for the CD ROM and BIOs updates and chipset updates for the PC system.
If that doesn't fix it, goto edit>preferences>advanced tab>burn sub tab and UNCHECK "Sound Check" so they play louder
If needed we can check and see if the drive is in PIO mode instead of DMA. Does the PC lock up or get really slow when burning CDs?

I have a disk in my mac and came not get it out? I use the command E key to eject but it does note come out?

I have a disk in my mac but it does note come out useing command e to eject? how do i get it out or do I have to get it jixed?

Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.
