Making the order of Songs on a burnt CD the same as on the Playlist

I have a big problem when burning a playlist to CD. Having created the playlist the list will always play in the listed (or correct) order. However whenever I burn the playlist to a CD the order of songs turns out to be different on the CD from that originally created in the playlist.

Wish I could even burn CDs, my itunes says the burner is drive D: when its actually drive E: and when you try to burn it says "burner not found".
It gets worse and worse the more you try to do things with itunes the more bugs you expose!

  • ITunes making the playlist look like garbage

    When having iTunes minimized for a little while the playlist looks like crap when it comes back up.

  • Why is the order of songs on a playlist different on my iphone than it is on my computer

    The playlist "My Top Rated" is in descending order by rating on my computer (songs with the same rating are then sorted by artist) but on my phone they are always in a messed up order. I've tried making new playlists and resynching my phone, but nothing is working.And no, I don't have shuffle on.

  • How can I change the order of songs in a smart playlist?

    Hi there,
    I have a question about smart playlists.
    I have a smart playlist where all songs rated 5 stars are ordered in descending order, meaning the latest additions first. That works well in iTunes and I can rearrange the songs there without a problem.
    But when I start the iPod on my iPhone the order of songs in this playlist is always the same. In my case the latest songs are always put last no matter how I sort the songs in iTunes. I tried to delete and create a new smart playlist but the result is always the same.
    Is there a solution?
    Thanks for your answers....

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

    I know that I used to be able to drag songs to a different order in my iTunes playlists, but tonight, no matter the order that I add the songs to the playlist, or Smart Playlist, the order of the songs is alphabetically arranged, and the only other option is to click on "name" but then it just does reverse alphabetical order.
    Is something different, in a recent iTunes upgrade?  I'm a music teacher and I am trying to put the songs in the order that my students will be performing them next week, so this is driving me crazy tonight!!!!
    Thanks so much for sharing wisdom on what I am doing wrong!

    Do you have other choice selected in "View Options"?  Try turning on columns for album, artist, etc. if they aren't on and see if you can sort by those.  The other thing to try is to make sure you are viewing by List, not cover flow or another choice.  iTunes selects Album Artist by default and that can really make it hard to get things to group properly.

  • How do I change the order of songs on my Ipod?

    I posted this question in another forum with no luck. I have certain songs I want to play back to back. I tried selecting the songs and moving them around as if I was burning a CD but that doesn't work.
    Please help. Thanks

    I struggled for an hour trying to figure out how to sort then change the play order. When you select the left (numbers) column, you can drag songs to new positions. But what if you want to sort first, then move songs. When you click on the column to sort, itunes sorts, but you can't drag, so -> sort (click on the column you want to sort by) -> then right click on the playlist name and select 'copy to play order' -> then click on the numbers column. The playlist will now stay in the sorted order, and, now you can drag and rearrange from there.

  • How do I change the order of songs?

    Hi,
    I have iTunes 9.0 (70) and I have my songs chosen in order by artist. I forgot how to change the order of songs.
    I tried switching the songs categorized by the name of the song. That didn't work.
    Please let me know how to drag and drop a song correctly. I just want to move one song by the same artist to a different spot in the queue.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    I used to be able to do that left column thing, but it won't work.
    First of all, there are no numbers in that left column (not sure that matters or why that is). There's just an arrow at the top facing to the left with blank spaces beneath it.
    When I click on the left column, all that shows up is the cover art for the albums, and the list is changed the order of each full album. I still can't drop and move.
    Sorry I don't know how to attach a screen shot of this. Hope I described it okay.
    I'm wondering if there's a drop down menu item that needs to be changed or something.
    Thanks so far for your help!

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

    It used to be a simple as click and drag, but now it's seems impossible.  I'm really frustrated with the is dang machine to the point of putting a coffee cup through it and buying a pc.  I'm running iTunes 11.4

    Hello there bcourtney,
    If the track you are dragging will not stay in the place you are trying to drag it to and seems to snap back, it seems to me that the playlist this is happening on is a Smart Playlist, rather than a standared Playlist. The standard playlist can be sorted in this way in iTunes 11:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Create a playlist
    Edit a playlist
    Select the playlist and do any of the following:
    Drag the songs into the order you want. If you can’t drag a song, click the column heading above the numbers.
    Looking at the Smart Playlist article it does not have that same drag and drop sorting function.

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Ipad2, iOS 8.1.2, how do I change the order of songs in my Playlists?

    I Have an iPad 2, using iOS 8.1.2. i can't seem to change the order of songs in my Playlists in the Music App. I've clicked on Edit, and tried moving the 3 lines on the right up/down, but when I press Done, the changes have not been affected. Can anyone advise, please? I'm sure I'm missing something!

    It sounds like you are doing it correctly. That method works for me in iOS 8.1.2
    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iDevice?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

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

    What am I missing?

    Assuming that you are using the View/As List to look at your Playlist, click on the top of the number column on the left side, so that the songs are in the order they were placed into the list (and there will now be an arrow at the top of that column). Now simply drag songs to the point in the list where you want them.
    If the Playlist was in the order of Last played for instance, then you simply cannot drag songs around in the list because it would go against the "last played" order.

  • Why can't I change the order of songs in my iTunes library?

    If I create a playlist I can change the order of songs but I can't change the order in the Library. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks

    That's the normal intended behaviour of the Library. I'm not exactly sure why it is, but I guess it's to make it clear to users that if they want to "fine tune" the tracks they should use a playlist (just like you can't use the burn button in the library).
    I'm sure you've noticed that you can still sort the library by clicking the headings.

  • How do I edit the order of songs within an album?

    I have my Ipod plugged in and need to fix the order of songs on a few albums. Can someone please let me know how to do this? Thanks a lot.

    If the songs are in a playlist open iTunes then click on the playlist. Click on the number column (extreme left). Click on the song you want to move and drag it to where you want it to be. Right click on the playlist name and select "Copy to play order". Connect your iPod, if you are updating automatically it will pick up the change. If you are updating manually then you connect first and when the iPod appears in the source list carry out the process above directly in the playlist on your iPod. Make sure neither Shuffle or Repeat are switched on in the playlist, either of those can prevent you reordering tracks.
    If the tracks are out of order in the library 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 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 Artist>Album>Track Number within Album (you can hide the track number column when you've done if you don't want it cluttering up the view)
