Playlist Order Not The Sames As In iTunes

Hi,
I am using a PC with iTunes 8.2. I have a playlist that consists of 60's Music, 70's Music, etc, then abba, bangles, billy Joel. In operating system 2.2 the playlist displayed properly with the 60's, 70's... then abba, bangles. However, when I upgraded to 3.0 the 60's, 70's, 80's playlists are now at the end of the list. What is strange is that in iTunes 8.2, it displays properly, just not on the touch with 3.0. I don't know if I accidently did something to change the way the playlist is displayed or that now this is how it is displayed. Can someone help!

I see this problem too. The Playlist names (names, not contents) in iTunes are sorted by numbers and symbols first, then letters (e.g. "60's Hits" comes before "Acoustic Favorites"). But with OS 3.0 on the Touch the Playlist names are sorted letters-first, then numbers and symbols (e.g. "60's Hits" comes after "Zydeco Favorites").
I thought it was bad enough when Apple adopted this screwy sorting behavior for song names, album names, etc., but this is very irritating. At least with songs, artists, etc. there is a workaround with the Sort Option fields, but there is no workaround for the sorting of Playlist names.
Please report this issue here, maybe Apple will go back to the old sorting:

  • HT204053 Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT KNOW it.  Thanks!

    Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT know it.  Thanks!  I've used my iTunes password for everything else Apple does and would like to use the same one for my iCloud.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • How do I find out my password to back up and restore my new iphone 6? Its not the same as my iTunes password..

    How do I find out my password to back up and restore my new iphone 6? Its not the same as my iTunes password..

    I am guessing you are talking about an encryption password that you placed on the backup you put into iTunes on your computer.
    If so, you elected to encrypt your iPhone's backup.  You will need to recall that password, or you cannot access the backup.

  • Music sort order not the same as iTunes after syncing

    iTunes 10.5.2.1 and iPhone 4S 5.0.1
    Firstly, this is NOT in relation to smart playists, or the smart playlist bug already identified.  I'm having the issue with the fundamental level playlists (ie non-created:  Artist etc) within iPhone.
    Can sort in iTunes however I want.  However when synced to iPhone some (not all - seemingly random) artists are out of order compared to iTunes, and some even appear in 2 places.  An example would be Alice Cooper where I have changed "Sort Artist" to Cooper Alice and thus appears in "C" in iTunes.  However appears in "A" in iPhone.  But in other cases Alanis Morissette, where I have also changed "Sort Artist" to Morissette Alanis & appears correctly in "M" in iTunes, appears under both "A" and "M" in iPhone - ie this artist & all songs by this artist appear twice:  under both "A" and "M".
    So the problem does not manifest the same way every time.  Near I can guess it seems to occur on songs which I imported with additional information under "Album Artist" - my iTunes is all sorted by "Album by Artist/Year" & this seems to override the information in "Artist" & sort by this first.  So for instance you would have Artist=Alice Cooper, Album Artist=Alice Cooper, and Sort Artist=Cooper Alice.  Even though you have specified that you want to sort by "Cooper Alice", the sorting is based on Album Artist "Alice Cooper" first and it appears in "A".  Deleting the Album Artist info causes iTunes to correctly re-sort into "C".  However iPhone still retains under "A" (or both "A" and "C") after syncing.
    So perhaps this is a sync glitch rather than a sort glitch with iPhone?

    No replies so will close this post.

  • Playlists songs not the same in iTunes-iPod Touch (most often played)

    I have created some smart playlists based on "most often played" or "most recently played", and the thing is than on iTunes, the playlists' content is correct but when I open the playlist on the iPod Touch, the songs that show up are not the ones supposed to. I tried changing the "most" recently played to "least" recently played, and it worked for the iPod Touch in the way that know I can have the MOST RECENTLY PLAYED songs but actually I'm using the "least recently played" criteria so in iTunes is all the other way around, it really shows the LEAST RECENTLY PLAYED!! What can I do to fix this??? Thank you very much.

    There is a 3rd option (besides disabling live updates, or sorting things in reverse): construct a similar 'smart' playlist without using the 'select by' rule. So, for example, if you usually pick the '50 most recently played', create a list of 'played within the past 5 days'. Or instead of the '50 least recently played', try 'last played more than 3 months ago'.
    These alternative playlists won't be limited to a fixed size, but they can accomplish similar goals, and they avoid the bug.
    Whether this solution is better (or worse) than reverse-sorted playlists depends on your preferences. For me, this works reasonably well (and the lists appear the same in iTunes and on the Touch).

  • Sort Order on Iphone not the same as on Itunes

    Hi, after one of the recent Itunes updates I noticed the sorted order on my play lists is no the same on the phone.
    I like to sort by date modified so that my pod casts are in the proper order on the phone. I can work around this by manually picking the next podcast, but still the problem remains and is a software issue which should be fixed.
    So, anyone else notice this?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Yeh I've noticed the same thing, ever since this new iTunes update.
    Clearly in iTunes I have my songs sorted in alphabetical order but when I sync to my iTouch the same playlist in the iTouch sorts in a random order.
    My smart playlists in iTunes are sorted in alphabetical order, when I sync to my iTouch, all the songs muddle. Whereas normal playlist will sort in the order as I tell them to in iTunes, which follows up on the iTouch.
    Weird :S

  • My iPhone is not the same as my iTunes account so i cannot sync it or i will lose what i have on my iPhone

    my iphone doesn't have the same stuff on it as my itunes account. when i plug it in it wants to take off the stuff i have on my phone

    Is there a question in there somewhere?
    You can only sync to one computer. One thing you might try though, is log out of the computer with the other account (wife's?) and log in with yours, then sync.

  • How do i sort playlists? NOT THE CONTENT (songs)

    Hi guys, Is there a way to sort/order the playlist order NOT the content of the playlist (songs inside the playlist) since its alphabetically sorted by default.
    For example you have 3 playlists named...
    Strawberry
    Apple
    Grapes
    It'll be automatically sorted in the order of Apple -> Grapes -> Strawberry no matter when the playlist was created.

    Add leading digits.
    1: Strawberry
    2: Apple
    3: Grapes
    And use playlist folders to group related playlists.

  • With iTunes match, order of the songs in my playlist of mobile devices is not the same as on my computer

    In my iTunes on computer, I have several smart play lists. Within each playlist, songs are set to a certain order. Some playlist songs order are organized by name, some playlists are organized by Album, some playlists are organized by artist etc.
    When I was syncing my iPhone and iPad directly with my computer, the playlists on my mobile device had same order of songs as on my itunes in computer.
    Now, I signed up for iTunes match. With iCloud sync, order of the songs in my playlist of mobile devices is not the same as on my computer. In fact, order of songs within a playlist appears to be completely random. Moreover, order of songs are different in my iPhone 4s and iPad 2
    How can I change the order of songs on my mobile devices or how do I make iTunes match to sync my songs such that within a playlist, my songs are in the same order as that of iTunes on my computer.

    Thanks mracole. I assume this means order of songs will work with regular play lists I iTunes match. Will try it this afternoon and report.
    Please let me know if my understanding is not correct.
    Best regards and thanks once again.

  • Smart Playlist in iTunes not the same as on iPod?

    Hi all,
    Currently I am in the process of making my entire CD collection (> 800 CD's) available on my new iPod classic. Ripping goes fine, no problem at all. But I have a problem with the Smart Playlists. Every CD in my collection has a unique number. I put that number in the 'Comments' section of every ripped CD (select all tracks of an album, go into 'Get info' and fill the 'Comments' section with a number like 0245).
    In iTunes I create a smart playlist containing every CD within a range of, say, 02. In iTunes I then see every CD starting with the number 02 (from 0200 to 0299). When i sync with my iPod, the playlists are available, but the sorting is not ok. I see a lot of tracks, but not organised by CD as in iTunes. Is there a way to change this so that on the iPod the sorting is the same as in iTunes.

    Select your Smart Playlist in iTunes, arrange it in the order you want, then right-click on the Smart Playlist title in the sources panel and click on *Copy to Play Order*. Sync. Your iPod should now have the correct play order.

  • Line item Ship-to Info is not the same in Header Ship-to Party During Sales Order Creation via IDOC

    We have observed that during creation of sales order using idoc, the line item ship-to party is not the same with header ship-to. The ship-to party info in line item is equivalent to the header's sold to party. To give you a quick background, Sold to party info is given in idoc and ship to party is being determined using table EDPAR. In this specific scenario, sold to customer is not the same with ship to customer.
    Initial checking on the code leads us in function module VIEW_KUAGV. This FM populates partner details of sales order header and line item in program LVEDAF1Z
    Below is the code for Sales order Header. Notice that WE_INPUT parameter which contains Ship to party is passed as exporting parameter in FM VIEW_KUAGV. This is the reason why Ship to Party is populated correctly in sales order header but not in sales order item.
    Initially, it first set to Sold-To Party. However, if WE_INPUT is given or provided, partner details is set to Ship-To Party.
    Please advise on how we can make the ship to party info in header and line item be consistent. This is SAP Standard program which why we are hesitant to make change on the program. If there is a configuration to make this happen, kindly advise.

    Rommel

    Hi Jayesh,
    If I understand you correctly, you want that when creating SO from Quoatation
    the Ship to Party also follow/copy Ship to Party from Quotation, right?
    Just to confirm with you, when you creating SO reference from Quotation, you
    use copy/follow-up function, am I right?
    You can do this by setting in configuration of Copy Control (like mentioned by Hui).
    Step as follow :
    1. Go to IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Copying Control for
        Business Transactions
    2. Create your BAdi (Business Add-In for Copying Control), such as get Ship to
        Party value from source document and use it in current document
    3. Use this Rule you have created in BAdi (no. 2), in copy control transaction type
        IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Copying Control for
        Business Transactions-> Define Copying Control for Transaction Types
    4. Here you set Copying Routine for your transaction types (put name of your Badi
        created in step no. 2)
    Or alternatively, you can set it on access sequence in Partner Function
    Ship to Party in configuration. You can define access sequence the Ship
    to Party is taken from Preceeding Document -> Ship To Party
    1. Go to Partner Function access sequence :
        IMG->CRM->Basic Functions->Partner Processing->Define Access Sequence
    2. Create new access sequence with following entry :
        - Source COM_PARTNER_A (PrecedingPartner)
        - Check Mapping for Partner Being search
        - Partner Function in Source  = Ship To Party
    3. Assign this Access Sequence in you Partner Function used in Sales Order Transaction
       Type.
    Tell me if this is what you looking for

  • I have two macs at my house, and multiple iPhones. I want to keep the same apple id as everyone else, but i want to put my own music only on my iPhone. I want to do this with my laptop which is not the family's main iTune's computer.

    I have two macs at my house, and multiple iPhones. I want to keep the same apple id as everyone else, but i want to put my own music only on my iPhone. I want to do this with my laptop which is not the family's main iTune's computer.

    If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on each device, yes. However, you can use the same Apple ID for iTunes content on each device, but different Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc., on each device. That way, you can have whatever iTunes content you want on each phone, but keep all of the other data separate. You can create another Apple ID here:
