Import CD appears out of numerical order

Trying to add CD to iTunes in the order indicated on the CD. The list of songs to be imported shown on iTunes is not in the numerical order on the CD. How can I correct this and have the music imported in the correct order?

The apparent order of a CD depends upon how you have iTunes display it - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17827921 and https://discussions.apple.com//message18583827
Of course also make sure there is data entered for track number and that fields such as disc number and album artist are either all identical or all blank.

Album song lists displayed out of numerical order

Suddenly, the song lists for each album at the music store, are displayed out of numerical order. Is it something I did? If so how can I fix it? Makes it very hard to find and buy proper song.

The sort-order for songs can be changed by clicking on the various column headings in the Music Store display.
So make sure you've selected the left-most column for your sorting order.

When Messages.app refreshes conversations, messages appear out of chronological order.

I'm also using an iPhone 5, all of my software is up to date. Conversations on the iPhone are in correct order. Most of the conversations are using my phone number, but some are using my email address. The issue appears with both. Is there an easy way to troubleshoot or solve?

So I got the impression it was the actual Conversation (Left hand List) that was un-ordered or at least out of order.
Form your Picture I see you did mean Messages.
As I said in my reply most people reports that Quitting Messages and restarting the app does seem to sort this.
Is this what you mean by "refreshes" or do you man something else such as looking at a conversation again or making the App the "front" app ?

Track appears out of album order

Image: http://mattgcn.tumblr.com/photo/1280/345826501/1/tumblr_kwlh2yE20v1qzl3jr
Basically, no matter what bulk-tag-editing, renaming or anything I do to this file, it refuses to show up AFTER track 1

Your image lacks the column headings which might help pin down the exact cause, but the numbers on the left suggest we're looking at playlist. Select this column and you ought to be able to drag the tracks into any order you choose. For general advice on grouping & sorting see Use an album friendly view and Tracks out of sequence.

Issue: songs appear out of "album order" on iPad

I am using current version of iTunes on IOS7.03 on my iPad 2. iTunes library (v11.1.3) is on Mac w/OS 10.9.
All is fine on the Mac; issue on this iPad.
Songs within each album are no longer in "album order" (1,2,3,4 etc)
HOW do I correct this?

It sounds like you might have the "Shuffle" option sellected. Go to the CONTROL menu and go to SHUFFLE. If it is on, turn off Shuffle. Read about "Shuffle" under the help menu.

IMessage on iMac showing conversations out of chronological order

Had something happen today in iMessage on my new computer that I've never had happen before. It got messages b/w me and a friend out of chronological order (see below) on my new iMac even though the messages are in the correct order on other devices (iPhone, iPad). Any ideas what's going on?

I've just imported photos that are misdated and appear out of order in my events. How can I correct the dates on these events so they appear properly?

Preserving numerical order of imported photos

I am working on a project consisting of still photographs imported into FCP. the photos are in .psd format, and are named/numbered sequentially, such as this:
DSCN0001, DSCN0002...etc.
sometimes the numbers might not begin at 0001, but they are always in ascending numerical order.
I have discovered that sometimes their order, after placed into the time line is out of numerical sequence, which is a problem bcs thousands of photos will be involved in this beast. tweezing thousands of images into correct order would be...not good..
Is there a non-manual way for me to correct the photos' order after they've been place and/or ensure they they remain in correct numerical order even before I do the importing?
thank you!

If you sort them by name in the Browser, they should go in the order that they appear there. but numbers are tricky sometimes. If they absolutely ascend I think it should work OK.
You can also view by icons, and place them in order. left to right, then next row down - left to right etc.

TS1387 When importing a music cd the songs are not in numerical order from list. Also some songs are duplicated.

Why are songs that are being imported from a music cd in random numerical order? Why are songs from a previous import suddenly being duplicated on the album list?

OK, I am really glad I do not have to look you guys in the eye cause I have the answer...kinda. I looked at iTunes again and clicked the first column and it turned to a small arrow (where before it was nothing)and then the order was correct. When it first appeared it was in no order I could tell, not even backwards.
I put in the data CD, same thing ...no arrow at top of first column and after I clicked the top of first column, songs went into playlist order and arrow appeared.
Now I noticed everytime I eject the CD and insert it again, it goes out of order again. What am I missing?

Why do columns not appear in the same order as the fields on my imported form?

Hello All
I am an Acrobat X user and make numerous forms through Acrobat. However, when I import the file into FormsCentral, the order of the fields in the table do not correspond to the order in which they appear on my form. The fields on my form are in a calendar format so they appear from left-to-right. I'm wondering if when I do the import, it is read by FormsCentral from top-to-bottom instead or is it random. It's a real inconvenience and severely inhibits my workflow when I have to rearrange the columns to work with the data. Any suggestions or insight would be appreciated.
Thanks
Daryl

Files have no order. File management programs like the finder or windows explorer will display files according to your selected display sort. Typically alpha by file name, date created, size, date modified. So to view them in a selected order you need to sort on an attribute that accomplishes that. The easiest usually is to export photos using the sequential naming option then displaying in alpha order

When I open a file in bridge my files are no longer in numeric order and appear to be scrambled in exposure values

When I open my files in bridge with CC, the images are no longer in numeric order but scrambled in what appears to be exposure values. When I use the CS5 software the files are fine so that should rule out a hard drive problem. It is a consistent problem with all hard drives on CC and is accurate on those same hard drives with CS5. Any ideas on how to correct this problem?

Thanks for letting me know, Helene Nice that I was able to get someone here on their way.
Have a pleasant evening!

Is there a way to import pictures into LR in original numerical order? .

I am new to LR. Imported few hundreds of pictures taken by two different cameras and stored in numerical order in a folder. LR4 rearranged them in some mysterious order that makes no sense to me. I tried to re-sort them in numerical order, but there is no such option under the Sort menu. Only by categories for which I have no use for. Does anybody know how to restore the order of imported pictures in numerical order? Not manually, there are too many and there will be a lot more to come.

Thanks for advice. It sounds good as you wrote it, but it does not work. I mean the part to find out where the connection was lost and restore it. Items remain grayed out and that is it. How do you restore the connection? Is there some secret DOS command, specifically invented by Adobe so that it cannot be intuitively used from the drop down menu by anyone without completed advanced learning course? I tried to re-import instead, but all pictures in folder are greyed out and import button is greyed out, too.
After more and more pictures from different folders were losing connections as I tried different things to restore it, I reinstalled the LR hoping that everything, including references to imported pics will be gone. It did not happen. Other importing editors before uninstalling ask if you want to keep pics references in case you change your mind. Adobe does not offer such choice. I made another unwarranted assumption that everything will be wiped out. It was not. But after reading advices like yours, I tried uninstall from inside the LR. That worked. After that I would not try to import the set for editing again. LR acts quite aggressively when importing. It would import not only the folder which I ask, but everything it can find on any connected device. Awful.
Luckily, the copy of LR 4.4 on my laptop with Win8.1 still recognized the folder and I was able to finish off the editing job. Well, Adobe had yet another surprise for me. When I “exported” the entire collection to JPEG using, just in case, two different Export commands, because there is no one simple “batch convert to JPEG, TIFF or whatever” command available, I found out that there were no edits included with any converted pictures. After two weeks and dozens of wasted hours I was exactly where I started. So I gave up and now I am half way through the folder again, for about the fifth time, but this time with the simple, straightforward DPP. I may not be getting results like with LR, especially with high/ low tones, but at least I know I am getting something rather than nothing.

How can I get the songs in my iPod Nano to sort in numerical order?....they show up tht way on iTunes, but on the Nano, they're out of order.

they show up that way on iTunes when connected to the Nano, (in numerical order) but on the Nano, they're out of order. The shake to shuttle is off.

I dragged and dropped it from my desktop to my Nano (through iTunes) and it all loaded in order...if I take it from iTunes, it syncs everything, not just one playlist....even though I choose only one playlist...
??? So you are manually managing your iPod's contents. i.e you drag and drop content onto your Nano from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.
What did you drag and drop?

Creating slideshow - importing images in numerical order

I am creating my first slideshow in iDVD '06. I want the images to appear in numerical order as they do in their original folder. When I drag multiple images over from a folder, they appear in random order. Is it possible to maintain the numerical order?
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Mandy - if you want a quick slideshow, why not do it in iPhoto where you can quickly arrange the photos how you want? You can then Share/Export to Quicktime and bring it in to iDVD (my preference) or use the iDVD option within iPhoto to transfer the slideshow.
