Changing track order after importing

I am trying to import opera CDs into my iTunes library. Operas usually take up 2 or 3 CDs, and when I try to upload the multiple CDs to my library, iTunes mixes up the order of the tracks so that I can't listen to the opera in order. How do I change the order of the tracks in the iTunes library so that I can listen to the opera in order?

Try this, I found that it works for me. Right click at the top of any column in your iTunes library and choose **Track Number** from the list. Click at the top of this new column to sort it and after that click on the Album by year column. If you like you can then click on Artist, it will continue to hold the track order as well. Afterwards anything you import should follow this arrangement Track Number>Album>Artist. Make sure the little triangle on the right side of the track number column header is pointing up. In that direction the column is sorted in Ascending order (lowest to highest).

  • IMovies Changing Order after importing from DVD to iMovie

    I take a burned DVD from our camera and then import it to iMovie. When I do this, after I get through importing it into iMovie, it changes the order of the film. Why is it doing this and is there a way to keep the order in place??

    I'm not familiar with those 'DVDcorders', but what I've read here so far, the problem is: iM isn't able to read out the meta-data on some of those disks which create the time-stamp. instead, it catalogs by date-of-import
    two things .. :
    • check, time/date is set in your recording-device ..
    • iM09 has a feature, to set the recording date (and time) of a clip manually after import; read iM's Help how to accomplish that ..

  • Wrong track order on import

    Hi Everybody-
    Usually I can fix this problem but this one CD stumped me and I can't get the tracks in order on iTunes 11 ( which *****, IMHO)
    If I change setting to import time/date then the tracks line up fine but that changes the order of the artists and I like them alphabetized.
    So...  What am I doing wrong ? I've already spent an hour on this and re-imported the cd.
    Thanks

    When I have issues importing CD's on iTunes, I use Music Brainz.
    Its scans the files, organize the id3 tag, covers etc.
    Hope that helps

  • Changing track order in Library

    I recently purchased 6 songs from the Bowie "Heroes" album from the iTunes Store. But looking at them in my iTunes Library, the title track had the wrong album information. It said it was from somebody's iMix, and had that person's photo in the artwork. It also had the wrong track number. (For the record, I never accessed this person's iMix, and was very careful about the order that I downloaded the songs.) I went to Get Info and changed everything about the song to the right information. But even though the album and track number is now listed correctly, the song still isn't in the right vertical order in my Library, and consequently, won't play in the right order of the original album. I know I can always make a playlist and change the order there, but I want it to display correctly in the main Library. After all, I didn't create this problem. Any suggestions?

    DVDAFTEREDIT (dvdafteredit.com) lets you get more under the hood if you want to clean things up more - helps but not needed.
    DVD SP has an abstraction layer which makes things easier to author, but may not be the most effective ccoding, though for many things it is ffine
    What I was sayng (borad stroke) is let's say you have a track that has a few scenes and you have a menu that targets scenes in the track or does a play all - the menu to select the scenes or play all would be best to be in the same VTS for thhat track
    If you have couple of tracks with the same set up (few scenes and play all) the menus for the respective tracks should be set up the same way

  • Clips in wrong order after importing

    Hello,
    I have a digital Sony camcorder HDR-SR7E. I had a 7 day trip and filmed a lot. When i was importing it to imovie all seemed fine but after importing it all the clips were in the wrong order. And i belive there is no way of sorting the clips or is there?
    I found something called pane reliever for imovie but the download link is not working. Or maybe someone else has any experience with this kind of a problem.
    Thank you very much for any replies,
    Madis

    And i belive there is no way of sorting the clips or is there?
    Not from within iMovie '08. You can however, download and open a utility called "A Better Finder Attributes", close iMovie '08, open the problem events folder, drag and drop your imported clips to the utility, change the "creation" dates and/or times, and then re-open iMovie '08. If all went well, your "Event" clips will be re-ordered during the initialization "scan" according to their creation dates/times within the event.
    I found something called pane reliever for imovie but the download link is not working.
    This utility appears to have been written originally for OS 8 and 9 and carried over to OS 10.1 thru 10.3 but I don't see any reference to OS 10.4, OS 10.5, or use with iMovie '08. I would stick with simply changing the Finder attributes for the files.

  • Changing track order?

    i got itunes 7, played around with it for a bit, and ejected my ipod, to find that one song from each of the albums of the artist I was listenign to had been moved randomly to a different spot in the album order. All these songs have track listings set in the "get info" page. i noticed that the track order would change based on whether i was browsing by artist or by album, which should not happen, and then, after clicking "get info" it would correct itself. Is this a bug? I don't look forward to plugging my ipod back in, and fixing the track orders throug itunes every time I want to play my music through my computer speakers. Also, it seems to "determine gapless playback" for every song on my ipod any time i transfer any music to it. any way i can tell it not to do this..its a very time consuming process... thanks

    It looks like you are not the only one. How frustrating.

  • IPod changes Track Order upon transfer

    Okay, so, when I import a new album into iTunes and then transfer it to my iPod, the iPod will not keep the track order, no matter what I do in iTunes beforehand. I make sure that the album is organized by track before transfer, but after I disconnect my iPod, track 5 becomes track 1, and all kinds of craziness. When i connect the iPod to my computer again, I notice that the track numbers are correct (1 of 10 is still 1 of 10) but that they are in the wrong order (1 of 10 follows 5 of 10, which is follwed by 2 of 10). Why does the iPod do this, and how can i fix or stop it?
    Thanks,
    -dan

    highlight all of the tracks in the cd *hold shift,click first track* then *hold shift,click last track*
    then hold *control, I* set the disc number to "1 of 1" it might work. That's all I can think of at the moment.

  • Automatic ORDCHG Change Purchase Order after Order response from Vednor

    Hi
    How to trigger Change Purchase Order action after receiving PO Confirmation - Order Response from Vendor.
    The scenario is that Order Confirmation vednors sends contains delivery date or delivery qunatity variance within defined tolerances. In such cases it is acceptable to allow automatic PO change.
    This is an EDI scenario. Idocs ORDRSP and ORDCHG in use.
    Thanks for hints.

    - For automatic document adjustment, you must make the necessary settings in Customizing (SPRO ->Materials Management->Purchasing->Conditions->Automatic Document Adjustment). The system logs all the relevant purchasing documents and can therefore determine all the documents affected by a change to a condition.                                    
    - This is only possible for purchasing documents for which follow-on documents (goods receipt, invoice receipt) do not exist.           
    - Before you run this report, you must have run report RMEBEIN4 (creation of worklist for automatic document adjustment).

    Maher,
    Here's an example:
    router bgp xx
    address-family vpnv4
    nei x.x.x.x route-map localpref in
    ip extcommunity 1 permit rt 4000:1
    route-map localpref permit 10
    match extcommunity 1
    set local-preference 110
    route-map localpref permit 20
    BTW: if the route with RT 4000:1 had a different RD both routes would get imported in the VRF and you could set the local-pref using an import map instead of an inbound route-map on the VPNv4 session.
    Hope this helps,

  • Change track order

    For some reason when I dowloaded an audio book, the trracks are in the wrong order.  What is the fastest way to get them in the correct order.  The Chapter names are not alphabetical so I would like to click and drag the tracks within an album to change the order of the tracks in my music library?  I don't just want this order on my nano, I want the correct order within the album.  Thansk, Gina  (going into each "Get Info" takes too long.)

    View > View Options.  When the View Options box comes up, set "Sort by" to "Manual Order."
    Once this is done, you will be able to move songs up or down by drag-n-drop.

  • Sb CS4 multi-track file how to change track order

  • ITunes changes track order when burning discs

    When burning a playlist to disc iTunes changes the track order.  I want the disc to have the same track order as my playlist.  How do I do that?

    Jim VanLeeuwen wrote:
    How your CD appears in iTunes depends on the column selections. In list view in iTunes, select the column to the left of the track names to see the CD track order. To see the actual order of the tracks on the CD, open the CD in Finder by double-clicking the CD on the desktop. The tracks will be preceded by a number corresponding to their order on the CD and that is the order they should play in your CD player. If you use the Finder's list view, your CD should reflect the order in the playlist you burned it from.
    Play the CD in your CD player? Does the order match the original playlist?
    Nope, when I put it in my car CD player the tracks are randomized. On the playlist I can put the tracks in the order that I wanted them in and when I burn them iTunes randomizes the order on the cd. I've burned it 4 more times and each time the tracks have been randomized. This is also with a cd that I bought from the ITS. So the playlist is in track order and I even checked the tags and the numbers are in the correct order.

  • Firefox Mobile changes bookmark order after sync

    I've got all my bookmarks arranged on Firefox desktop into various folders and there are also various bookmarks in the Unsorted Bookmarks folder that are sorted by date added. I've connected to Firefox sync and synced the desktop. I've then installed firefox mobile on android and connected that to Firefox Sync. This then syncs all my desktop bookmarks on to Firefox mobile. However when I go back into Firefox desktop the order of my unsorted bookmarks has been changed and ordered by name.
    I assumed that either Firefox Desktop would be the master and everyother device synced with this would follow the same order or that the first device linked (the desktop) would be the master. However Firefox mobile seems to sync the bookmarks, change the order and then sync this new order with the desktop.

    yesterday I did what you suggest,
    This morning I turned on my computer and open firefox, you bookmarks toolbar back chaotic.. you can see my snapshot
    so chaos occurs bookmarks toolbar every firefox is opened and synchronize.
    although today I fix bookmarks toolbar, tomorrow morning when I open firefox, it would be chaos again
    ''cor-el [[#answer-720436|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    You would have to restore the bookmarks from an older JSON back if the recent backup that Firefox uses to rebuild the bookmarks when you delete the places.sqlite file is already corrupted.
    The name of a JSON bookmarks backup file includes a total item count (includes folders and separators) and an hash value to prevent saving the same backup more than once.
    *bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD_<item count>_<hash>.jsonlz4.
    So you can check if there is a sudden unexplained change in the item count.

  • Can't change track order for a CD I'm trying to burn - Help! :-/

    I'm trying to put together a CD for my girlfriend (yes I know... sappy) but can't seem to change the order. I'm feeling a bit like an idiot because I was able to change them just hours ago but not anymore. I also noticed I can't drag items from other playlists into this one. It's NOT a SmartPlaylist and no I don't have any of the sort headings selected besides the first one (little arrow thingy).
    I've read everything I could find in the forums and none of it's helped.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm positive that Shuffle is NOT on. This really seems like a glitch in the program to me.
    Indeed it is. That is what I meant by "bug."
    I've compared my itunes setup to another computer side by side and can't see why it won't work. I've tried restarting the program, the computer, etc but it still won't allow me to drag songs to playlists or reorder them within the playlist.
    Did you try the "Add To Playlist" approach that was suggested? That should help you get around the first problem. As a workaround for the second, start a new playlist and add the songs one at a time in the order you want.
    Hope this helps.
