How do I reshuffle the numbering of my songs in a playlist?

Up until iTunes 11, when I started playing a playlist in Shuffle mode, it resheffled the songs and renumbered them for this session.  This gave me an option to see if similar-sounding songs were by the same artist, or from the same album.  Now in iTunes 11, it jumps around the playlist, but never shows me the new, currently playing listing.  Is there a way to force iTunes to show the songs it has played in this session?

In order to change the order of a playlist, you MUST click on the first header to sort by that column (the numbers column). If you are sorting by other columns (e.g. Artist, title, etc.) you can not reorder manually.

  • How can i change the order of my songs in a playlist????

    I want to change the order of my songs in a playlist - I have tried clicking and dragging, but they won't move! Any suggestions? Much appreciated.

    I turned shuffle off and it still won't let me move
    them. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
    When displaying the playlist in iTunes, click on the LEFTMOST column (left of Name) and then arrange songs in desired order.

  • How do I change the order of my songs in a playlist?

    I am trying to change the order of songs in a play list by dragging a song to the desired location. For example taking the 10th song and moving it so that it is first song.
    Sometimes I am successfuly in dragging the song in a play list. Other times I cannot do it. Please advise.

    With the new upgrades itunes    How do I change the order of my songs on my playlist.  I used to just drag it up on down in the list
    this does not work now

    Control click one of the out-of-order songs.  Choose "Get Info".  Click the "Info" tab. You will see "Track Number" XX "of" YY.  Change the first number there.
    Do the same for all songs that need correction.

  • How do I get the Numbers application iOS 7.0.4 unstuck updating on iPad 2?

    How do I get the Numbers application unstuck in updating on iPad 2?   After the last update of iOS 7 it started acting up. Then weeks ago (in November) I opened the application right after iOS 7.0.4 update and while accessing a file it got stuck, some files are white and I can access them. Other files are gray and I can not open them. The application goes white when it first opens up instead of just opening then there is a delay, then it eventually opens.  It is stuck updating.
    I have tried various things. 1) Rebooting, 2) hard reboot (holding down the off button and home key until the apple icon appears), 3) tried putting it in Airplane mode-reboot-then connect to computer and iTunes-then rebooted. 4) tried opening a file in another application- I get an error message that says : can't open spreadsheet- this spreadsheet is updating, wait for it to finish then try opening. 5) sending spreadsheet- I get an error message that says : this spreadsheet is updating, wait for it to finish then try sending.  None of these have worked.
    I am at my wits end I use these files for my business and I am self-employed, some files I can't access at all, this is very serious for me. If you know how to fix this please help me.  I transferred all of my NECESSARY and IMPORTANT client files to Numbers from Excel, I've been using Numbers successfully for about 1 year.

  • I use a French bluetooth keyboard how do i lock the numbers for doing calculations? Does anybody know? i.e. the numbers are above the top row of keys and you have to use the shift key to access them.  You can't use the cap lock key to lock the numbers.

    How do I lock the numbers on a French keyboard if I'm using a small blue tooth keyboard with no number pad?

  • How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?

    How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?
    Also how can it be a line graph without plotting a circle at each value?
    Thanks this is very frustrating

    Make a copy of the table and produce your Line chart or Bar chart from the copy. Sort the copy into the order you want to see in your chart.
    Alternately you could use a Scatter Chart...

  • How do I move the numbers or bullets closer to the list?

    Oh Dreamweaver sages...How do I move the numbers or bullets closer to the list?  Please look at this  http://www.stii.us/whatisst.html  and tell me what you recommend.  Thank you!

    With CSS margins and padding.
    #mainContent li {
      margin-left:10em;
      padding-left:0;
    Also remove the <p> tags from all your <li> tags.
    <ol>

  • How can I change the order in which songs appear in my iTunes Music Library?

    How can I change the order in which songs appear in my iTunes Music Library?

    Kay,
    If you are looking at the entire music library ("Music") you can sort by any of the columns by clicking the column header.  If there is a column you can't see, enable it by going to View > View Options.
    Within a playlist, you can do the same, and in addition you can click above the column of sequence numbers, which will then allow you to drag tracks up or down to get any order you wish.

  • How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?

       How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?  As it goes now, one clicks on the song in the new playlist where the arrow is and then chooses 'Play Song Next.'  So, it plays next, but then the song after that is back in the old playlist.  I want to use iTunes smoothly without the extra clicks I've had to do in order to get the playlist to continue.  This is music for background while I play the violin at restaurants, and extra clicks and hassle is quite unappreciated, especailly since it worked fine in the previous iTunes.
       Thanks.

    At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
    If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).

  • How can I reduce the bit rate of songs in my Music Library to enable me to

    At the moment i can only fit about 1300 songs on my iphone and also have used up half the space on my 120gb Classic with 7000 songs which is a lot less than what i was told would fit on. so............
    How can I reduce the bit rate of songs in my Music Library to enable me to fit more songs onto my iPhone or iPod Classic.. and what is the minimum rate that i should stick to in order to retain good sound quality.

    For existing tracks, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550
    For CDs you import in the future, change the Import settings in the iTunes -> General preferences.
    As to what will be a good bit rate, that's going to be up to you and what quality you find acceptable, but many people find that 128 kbps AAC is the optimum balance between small file size and quality.
