Playlist burning song order

occasionally the playlist that gets burned to a cd changes its order, latest one rearranged songs into order by artist...

I'm having the same issue. The CD that is burned has the song order arranged by album. I want the songs burned as listed in the playlist. I am using version 9.2.1.5. How can we retain the same sequence as set out in the playlist?

I'm not 100% sure but I think you create your play order manually then select the playlist, right click it (or use ctrl+click) & select "Copy to play order".
I think when you burn that playlist it should obey that order, it has been so long since I made a mix CD that I'm not certain, good luck.

Why doesn't my playlist burn to a CD in the order I listen to the songs in the playlist?

When I burned a playlist, the songs were not burned in the order that I listen to in the playlist. How does one burn a CD in the order of the songs in the playlist?

Hi. I have installed NI-VISA from the driver CD that was provided with the PCI board and I have also respected the powering up order, first the chassis then the PC. I am using a Intel Celeron, 2GHz, 512MB RAM and Windows XP SP3 OS. The chassis is a PXI 3000, Aeroflex chassis. From what I read, I understand that the drivers are supplied pre-installed. (if by PXI platform services you mean the hardware drivers;anyway, it's not booting even when the PXI is not connected to the PC). I keep on wondering about the Raid controller I mentioned in the previous message. I disabled the RAID operation option from BIOS(switched to non-RAID) but it still doesn't work. Also, I plugged in the board in another PC that has no RAID controller integrated and the PC booted(I didn't install any NI_VISA drivers). Please tell me if it is somehow related.
Thanks

Song order burning audio CDs

I'm using iTunes 7.5. When I burn a playlist as an audio CD, the song order on the CD is changed from the playlist order to a sorted order (by Name). How can I select retention of the playlist order on the CD?

I'm pretty sure that's the latest Lenovo-supplied firmware for that drive.
Force Optical Power Calibration before burn is turned on in the preferences.
I wonder if that's our issue? It's not a user-configurable preference (or at least, it never used to be), and it's set to off by default (at least it used to be in older versions of iTunes). But a transient issue might click it to "on", and the setting might now be causing the issue.
We should be able to reset it by rebuilding the iTunes preferences. For the basic technique, see the "Remove iTunes preference files" section from the "User-specific troubleshooting" section of the following document:
[iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717]
Try running your diagnostics again after each rebuild to see whether the Force Optical Power Calibration before burn has been switched off. (I'm afraid I don't know which set of prefs it lives in nowadays.) Once it looks to be reset, try another experimental burn and see if she's still giving the 4450.
*Prior to doing the preference file rebuilds:* Best to make a note of any custom preferences you have set up for your iTunes. (Rebuilding pref files returns preferences to their defaults ... so you'll likely have to set some of those custom preferences up again from scratch.) Also make a note of any third-party plugins/add-ons you have installed. You may have to reinstall those after the rebuilds.
*Things to watch out for during the rebuilds*
Rebuilding the preference files in the \Local\ location causes the iTunes license agreement to run. So you'll need to agree to that again.
Rebuilding the preference files in the \Roaming\ location causes the iTunes Setup Assistant to run. When prompted to do so, *do not* add files to your iTunes library. (Otherwise you'll end up with a library full of duplicates.)

Cannot change song order in most recent playlist iT11

Ok .. I just created a new playlist in order to burn to a cd and I cannot change the song order by dragging songs. A blue border appears around the outside of my playlist when I left click and hold on a song I would like to move and simply won't move. All previous existing playlists, created before the 11 'upgrade', I can still move songs without any issue as before.
What am I missing here? Never seen the blue border activate around a playlist before ....

I Can’t take credit for this, someone (riffraff)posted it long ago, but I’ve had to use it each time iTunes updates.
1. This will erase your play lists and music list. May want to have them saved somewhere to import from later
2. Close iTunes
3. I went to music folder then to iTunes and under this directory
4. I deleted iTunes Library files, library, extras, and genius
(Actually I just moved them to a new folder on the desktop if things go wrong)
5. started iTunes.
6. Got shaken when no songs in the music list
7. select add folder to library
8. select your music folder-probably iTunes Music folder
9. let run
10. I plugged in my shuffle, copied 5 podcasts to a playlist. Arrange in the order you want. Sync to the iPod. Detach and check. It worked for me.

I cannot change song order on playlist with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column( up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8 and am using itunes 10.4.

I cannot change song order on playlists (old or new) with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column (up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8 and am using itunes 10.4. I can't drag and drop "music" to "playlist" but can right click and get the option to "add to playlist." No such option for moving song within playlist, only the up and down arrow which moves song from top to bottom list, so if it is #4 from top it will move to #4 from bottom. Stupid I know. I spent over an hour with Apple support, reinstalled itunes, restarted and rebooted computer. Networked with my laptop which is running 10.6.8 and itunes 10.4 and it can drag and drop. The final Apple support solution was to reinstall my operating system. I would prefer not to. Any other ideas?

After looking at other people's posts, I think it's official: there is a bug. Itunes support said I should not have lost the drag/drop tool and I haven't on the laptop that is running itunes 10.4 and operating system 10.6.8. I chatted with someboby who lost both his drag/drop and side scroll and what we have in common is a wacom tablet for a mouse. My laptop is a wireless mouse. I reinstalled whatever updated driver that wacom has out there, shut the system down for night, hoping for magic, but alas none to be had. So if I want to change song order, I network the laptop and desktop, share the screen on the laptop, drag and drop to my heart's content and curse Apple for making me work this hard to find the tool that was once at my fingertips. Apple also let me know that if I want to share songs in household that the hundreds on songs that were purchased for .99 need to be repurchased for another .30. Maybe Apple is holding my drag/drop tool captive til I pay up the money or Maybe the next update will fix the problem, I for one give up for now.

How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)

How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)
So I'm adding new songs to a very old playlist? Is there anyway that when I add them, they automatically go to top of playlist? How about getting one song to the top of a playlist. That drag to arrange function is very annoying because it is slow and the playlist does not scroll up very well on a PC.

Make a new playlist by pressing the little plus button at the very lower left corner of iTunes. An new playlist will appear in the Source pane called "untitled playlist". While the name is highlighted, you can change it to whatever you want. Drag all of the tracks from all the albums that comprise a single book to that playlist. Sync that playlist to your iPod.

I have a playlist and want to copy it in the same song order to my iphone, but itunes doesn't do this for me. Solutions?

I have made a playlist for an event, and want to copy it from my iMac iTunes to my iphone in the same song order. But it doesn't do this. How do I ensure the copy is the same order as on my computer iTunes?
thanks for any help!

If any of your music was not purchased from iTunes, then copyright prevents any transfer back to the iTunes app.
iTunes will hold a record of all your purchases and all your non Itune purchases will not be processed.
I could not reload my music library built up from non iTune products and can not get 1 to reload from apple devices to other apple devices I own.
Also having upgraded software the libray wont take. I have to re-rip my music back to the Macbookpro then back to the iPhone 4s running IOS 6 over 700 tracks not funny!!!!

Burning songs in a particular order

How do I burn songs in a particular order?
I tried to burn all the songs by one artist, but it did it by albums - I wanted to hit random on my cd player and it randomly play the 100 songs, not by album.
And how do I create one with a bunch of different songs in an order and it actually play it that way and not in alphabetical order. This link didn't help me ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2455

Anyone know how to get all songs by one artist on a cd where it won't go through each cd. I'd like to hit random and it go wherever and not one cd at a time. It will random through the first cd, the second, but not random all of them at once. Does that make sense?

Issue with exported playlist song order

I exported a playlist (with the playlist sorted on the manually arranged order, far left column) as a .xml file using iTunes 7.0.2. When a friend imports this playlist into his iTunes (7.0.1) the song order is incorrect (again with sorting done on the far left column). When I look at the exported XML file with a text editor the order of the song entries is also wrong in the XML file. Has anyone elsed noticed this problem?

Actually, I looked more closely in the text editor and the playlist order looks correct so there appears to be an issue with 7.0.1 (I guess).

Song Order on Playlist

I am using a ZEN MX with current software and Creative Centrale. Is there some way to change the order of songs in a playlist with this model of ZEN? I can do it by dragging and dropping in my older ZEN V Plus.

Song order in playlist

Hope someone can help me. I am a classical music listener. Most of my music is burned from CD's, but I have purchased some from the itunes store. My problem is this - on the computer the order of say movements in a piece is correct. When I try to listen on an ipod or ipad, the song order is scrambled. (I assume the long titles of movements confuses things) I have tried a number of options on the ordering, but nothing works - can I force this?

i know little about classical music, etc, however, i have started a habit of my own to sort music listed on my library in the order as listed on a CD as i rip it in.
My habit is to look at my music as a virtual pile. I want to see from the top down, the most recent things added. However, the problem lies in if u insert a CD, click import, it imports with track 1 first, then thru the cd till end.
When i then sort as described above, all the songs are in reverse order as the timestamp on each track is older, 1 being older than 2, and so on.
So, as a habit, i import my cds by first clicking on the Track Number column, thus reversing the order (last track on top), and click import. The result when i sort my library in my "virtual pile" is that all the tracks on the CD in question are now in order 1 thru end.
Mabey some aspect of this would help you to straighten your issue out. idk..

Playlist Song Order Chan

Searched the Forum at length for the answer but didn't find it. Sorry if I missed it. On my Zen Xtra I can see the Playlist in the right pane (in Organizer), select a song, left click hold, and drag it up or down, and it moves. It also works with arranging song order on the playlists on my PC and Zen Micro (when viewed in right pane). This does NOT work with my Vision M. Am I missing something or is that the way it is? Thanks.

Use the Zen Media Explorer for your player to edit the playlist. Open the player using that application choose edit playlist & change the order there.When done click Ok/Save (can;t remember which one it says ) & that should be all you can also add songs this way. However the playlist must have been created using the Creative software. It will not edit a playlist created with Windows Media Player.

Playlist song order correct in iTunes, incorrect on device.

The playlist is smart. The song order is correct in iTunes and shows the correct order on the device if you look at the contents through iTunes. However, when looking at the playlist on the device itself the songs are out of order.

Well, while the playlist in iTunes and the playlist on the iPhone, as it appears in iTunes, match, the problem is that the iPhone seems to be stripping the instruction to order the songs randomly. That instruction is given in the 'limit to 30 GB selected by random' line. The list on the iPhone is in order from least recently played to most recently played. The highlighted column in the playlist is the leftmost 'number' column not the Last Played column. Any clues hiding out there?
