Moving the order of songs on playlists

I would like to move the order of some songs around on my playlist. Say if it's grouped by genre, but I'm not in the mood to listen to 80s (seeing as it's at the top)..., is there a way to put it somewhere else? Other than just reversing the playlist and having Z start first.
Thanks!

you could make a "smart playlist" that doesn't include the particular genre... that would work, you can do almost anything with smart playlists...
regards,
Pete.

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Reorganize the order of songs in playlists

    Users should be able to reorganize the order of their songs in their playlists by their own way. The filters are nice, but it would be more useful and cool if we could personalize the order of the songs that we add on the playlists. 

    Updated: 2015-07-09Hi and thanks for your contribution! As  mentioned, this is currently available in Spotify. Let me know if we've misunderstood your suggestion.

  • 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).

  • 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....

  • Moving order of songs in Playlist?

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

    The songs go into the playlist in the order you put them into it.
    If you had the library sorted in alphabetical order, selected a bunch of songs, they will be in the playlist in alphabetical order.
    If you select one song and add it then another and add it, then another and add it, they will be in the order you added them.

  • How can I shuffle the order of songs in a playlist in iTunes 11?

    How can I shuffle the order of songs in a playlist in iTunes 11?

    Never mind, finally figured it out. All the advice says to click on the left-most column, but it's actually the second column from the left (the first one, in mky version of iTunes, is the album list.)

  • How to change the order of songs in a playlist?

    The order of songs in a playlist on ITunes is different than the order of songs on my IpodNano 7th Gen -- how can I get them to be the same?

    I think so. I have "Music" selected from the drop down menu, and I have "Playlists" selected from the top row of choices. The title of the playlist is in a header row with the number of songs (26) and playing time. The first column is the one that shows the numbers assigned to each song.
    I have tried selecting "Edit Playlist" thinking that might be where I should go to fix this, but I can't drag or drop there either.
    Any other ideas???

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • I can't seem to move/change the order of songs within my customized standard playlist.

    Somehow the order of songs in my customized Standard Playlist is locked.  iTunes won't let me change the order.  Is there some Preference or default that makes them locked into position?  The playlists created by iTunes allows me to drag songs up or down but my Playlist won't.

    If shuffle is selected on for the playlst, you won't be able to re-order the songs.  Turn shuffle off and try again.

  • 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)

  • 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!

  • Since I upgraded to IOS5, my Smart Playlists are in a random order. Since I use it for listening to Talking Books this makes it useless. How can I control the order of a Smart Playlist?

    It may be best to recreate the folder and the smart playlists from scratch.
