Song order in itunes doesnt match my iphone

ok so i just recently got an iphone and normally im pretty good with figuring out these things, but im having trouble with my music. I like to have the songs in a playlist in a specific order (date added) and thats how i listen to most of my songs when im not on shuffle. But when i sync my iphone it changes the order of the songs in the playlists and i have no idea why or how to fix it. The playlists are sorted fine in itunes and with my itouch the playlists would just replicate that of which are in itunes but for some reason the playlists are fine but the songs are out of order. If somebody could give me any help or advice itd be greatly appreciated.

CROCK3317, I'm having the same issue that you are; some playlists are ordered correctly while others aren't. And the really strange thing is when I connect the iPhone to my Mac and view my iPhone playlists through iTunes, the songs within display in the proper order! It is just that they don't on my iPhone, for some playlists. This is very strange and it is disheartening that no one has responded to your initial post, 3 months ago! I tried removing all the music from my iPhone and reloading. But this did nothing. Same problems with the same playlists. Help!

You seems not to understand what I mean and what I'm having like problem. I still have my payment receipt from October of this year when I bought 9 songs in the iTunes Store from my iPhone 4S. The problem is from all the 9 songs I've paid for, only 7 are still available from this list on my iPhone. There is no possibility to download the other 2 without paying for them. I've spoke to the lady from Mississippi on the phone 2 days ago from about 2 hours calling from Belgium but unfortunately she couldn't help me. It's the 3rd time I complain about this. How many time shall I pay for the same songs?? If you can access my music list and my past receipts payment you will be able to find out what I mean. I went back on iTunes I've found the the songs I already downloaded in October that should be on my playlist but if I click on them it will charge me again 0,99 cents. It's been 3 years I've been using the same apple ID with my iPhones. I just wand to get my songs back without having to pay them twice or 3 times

1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

I am unable to copy or Sync songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone

I took a new IPhone 5 on the 2nd Nov in India; I am unable to copy or Sync songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone ( The IPhone symbol appears on my ITunes screen , But when I drag the songs my library to IPhone I am unable to Sync songs ) Can anyone help me with this issue and the main reason for me to take an IPhone 5 is for it would be handy for me during travelling as I can use it as IPod too

Connect your phone to itunes as you have been doing.
In the sidebar, select you phone and then on the main part of the iTunes window, select Music.
Check the Sync Music box and then you can either sync all music, or select the tracks/albums/artists/genres as you wish.
Once selected, at the bottom right on the maon iTunes window, select Sync.
Music will now be copied to you phone.

When did you upgrade to 4.1? 4.1 is no longer signed by Apple. It's no longer possible to (legitimately) install 4.1.

My iTunes doesnt recognise my iPhone 4, on my Mac. I have a PowerPC running 10.5.8. How do i get around this?

My iTunes doesnt recognise my iPhone 4, on my Mac. I have a PowerPC running 10.5.8. How do i get around this? I have tried lots of forums, they tell you the same things, re-install iTunes, the latest version! Sadly, this doesnt work on my 'OLD' Mac. Help please, as i do NOT want to be buying an updated Mac at this time!!!
Thanks

Hey, Buzz.
You can download the latest version of iTunes supported on Leopard here:

I can't copy certain songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone despite repeated attempts

I can't copy certain songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone despite repeated attempts. These are songs I copied way back when from CDs onto my computer. I can play them on my computer just fine in iTunes too. Status bar says "Updating files" and "Preparing to Copy" but nothing actually copies to my phone. My phone shows the songs greyed out and circles to the left of the song in the Store column and the songs never get copied onto my phone.
My guess is that there is something I am missing or something I am doing wrong.
Any advice/help is appreciated.
Thanks.

now my iphone has a blank screen for a couple seconds the loading screen appears then apple re appears.
A REPEATING CYCLE now i have No PHONE!!!! Help ME PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Try it...
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
i´ve done it and worked 100%
Good lucky

Cannot Sync All Songs In My iTunes Library to My iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2

I have over 10,000 songs in my iTunes library--about 7,000 are songs I ripped from CDs and about 3000 are songs purchased through the iTunes store. I am able to sync all the songs to my iPod Classic without any problem. However, only about 7,000 songs are synced to my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2--a mix of all the songs purchased and some of the songs ripped. How can I get my complete library synced to the iPhone and iPad, both of which are 128 GB and have plenty of room for the songs.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

Song order in itunes is out of order, can't fix with get info as apple suggests

I recently got a new 160gb Ipod and noticed when i synced with my itunes library that a lot of my albums are out of order. looked around trying to fix myself, but the suggestion to go to 'get info' tab and fix song order is not working. Noticed that the date on a lot of the albums is 1969 despite the fact that they are newer albums

Song Order on iPod won't match Song order in iTunes

I have albums that have the songs set up in the correct order on the iPod display in iTunes, but when I'm using the iPod away from the computer, the order is wrong. I feel like I've tried everything, including deleting the songs from the iPod and retransferring them from iTunes, resetting the iPod, and changing the track numbers, but no luck. Any suggestions?
Windows XP

OK, in case anybody can use this info, I found the answer to my own problem: The are fields for "Album" and "Album Artist." The songs with an entry for "Album Artist" were listed first on my iPod even though they were not listed first in iTunes. I just had to delete the entries under "Alubum Artist."
