Sort songs in Zen Mi

I am using the Zen Micro (5G) mp3 player. I notice the songs stored in it is not sorted in any order,? is there any way to sort them. thank you for response!!

What software are you using to transfer the songs?
I use Zen Micro Media Explorer, create Playlists and drag and drop the songs into my different Playlists, according to Genre.

  • Sorting songs in Zen Nano Plus pla

    First of all, the the Creative Media Explorer Helpt tells the following:?]]To manually sort audio files according to your preference
    [*]In Windows Explorer, locate and click the Creative Media Explorer icon. A list of players connected to your computer appears.<[*]Click the player that you want to set as acti've. Only one player can be acti've at any one time.<[*]Click the Custom Sort button?.<[/list][*]Use the drag-and-drop method to move audio files to new positions. You can also use the arrows near the bottom of the box to reposition your audio file.<[*]Click the Save button.<[/list]The problem is, I can't find the "Custom Sort" button nor the "Save" button anywhere. Any ideas? I'm using WIndows Vista with the latest Media Explorer software.
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm having exactly the same problem.
    I have just installed the?Zen Nano Series Media Explorer on Vista. It is the latest version downloaded from the Creative website. There is definitely no Custom Sort button. I have also installed the latest version of the?firmware (.4.03e), which is supposed to improve the player's compatibility with?Vista.
    Previously I was using the same Zen?Nano Plus player on an XP computer with an older version of the Media Explorer software. That version had Custom Sort and it always worked perfectly. I'm surprised there haven't been more posts about this, as it's a very useful function and I shall miss it'sgreatly if I can't get it to work on this new Vista?computer.
    Isn't it a bit'sabsurd that?the newest version of the software?has?less functions than an older version?

  • How do I get itunes to sort songs the same way my ipod does, without renaming the songs?

    Itunes and my ipod use different algorithms when sorting songs.  Here are a few examples:
    In itunes, apostrophes come before spaces/other characters  ("It's Good to Be King" comes before "It Keeps You Runnin'" and "You're an Original" comes before "You Better You Bet."  In my ipod, apostrophes come after spaces/other characters.
    In itunes, numerical song titles are sorted by the first number, then the second, and so on (18, 1983, 2112, 25, 3).  In my ipod, numerical song titles are sorted in ascending numerical order (3, 18, 25, 1983, 2112).
    The order is relevant for two reasons.  One, I like the sound of the song flow generated by my ipod's sorting better than the one generated by itunes.  Two, I use play count to determine whether or not to keep a song on my playlist (songs that I skip over repeatedly get cut entirely) and the changing song order tends to mess up the play count.
    So, other than going in and changing the names of the songs, is there some way to make itunes behave like my ipod?

    I deal with the numeric ordering by padding out the sort fields with leading zeros. iTunes used to sort numbers by value but it seems the code for that got removed at some point and hasn't been replaced. You should be able to use sort values to achieve some consistency between the two views of your media.

  • Why can I no longer sort songs by popularity?

    Why can I no longer sort songs by popularity?

    It seems this is a "backwards" upgrade from Apple in their iTunes 11 release....like you, I used to use that function in the iTunes store to sort through and decide which song version to purchase.   (For a large returned list of songs...see all...then sort by any of the headers, including Popularity...this functionality is now gone.)  
    The iPad always suffered from this...was never able to sort on those same column headers with an iPad.   It seems, this new iTunes release killed that functionality on the Mac as well.
    Just one of the few things that went wrong with number 11!
    Better luck next time,

  • Is it possible to sort songs after using iTunes Match?

    When I used iTunes to sync my songs previously, everything's fine because I can do all in iTunes then press sync.
    But with the use of iTunes Match, everything seems automatically done through the "cloud".
    I can't even rearrange the order of my songs, like sorted by artists or names of the songs.
    It's pretty a mess when viewing my playlist, the songs are disordered.
    Is it the fact that we can't sort songs?
    Thanks.

    I didn't say "re-create" I said "restore from a backup." Restoring from a backup will place all the files just as they were right back where they need to be. This includes the .itl, .itdb ad .xml files iTunes needs to recognize that the files on the internal HDD are the same as the files in the cloud.
    You do have a backup, don't you? If you don't then I strongly recommend you start backing up immediately.
    If all else fails you can email iTunes Store support and ask them to reset your iTunes Match DB on the server. This will require your iTunes to go through the entire scan, match and upload process as if it were the first time.

  • Sort songs into date transfered on vision

    is there anyway to sort songs, into when they were transfered onto the player, if that makes sence.oye and is there anyway to get windows task manager up without using ctrl+alt+del?thnx alot

    Hey, I have the exact same problem... It's very frustrating, because no matter what intelligent sorting you use, iOS 7 will end up using the numerotation sort.
    I found a way to still have it sorted, it's easy but could be much easier if iOS 7 behaved as iOS 6: all you need to do is sort your playlist in iTunes, as you would do normally, but this time, you then have to right click on the playlist. There should be an option like "copy to play order". What it does is re-index the numbers so that they match your playlist sorting. This way, even your iPhone will have this order. The bummer is it won't do it automatically. So say you wanted to sort by rating, every time you add/change rating, you will have to click on that option again. That s***ks a lot. I have iTunes Match with a lot of music, and it's a pain not to have it sorted.
    Anyway, even if it can help, I seriously hope there is a better way to do it.

  • How can I sort songs by song name?

    After updating my iPad, I lost the ability to sort songs by song title.  How can I get this back?  Also, when synching not all of my Playlists are exported to my iPad.  Is there also a fix for this?

    Hi Jim,
    I tried both things suggested and neither worked.  This just happened after updating. 
    Like thousands of others, I got an error message MSVCR80, and had to delete all Apple programs from my desktop and re-load iTunes. Since updating, nothing iTunes related has operated properly on my iPad, or Desktop.
    Very frustrating.  A service request to Apple results in a charge for service.  Very unfair since it is their own update that is causing the issues.
    Thanks for the suggestions.

  • Unable to sort songs on iPad or iPod in iTunes

    I used to be able to sort songs on my iPod using the column browser in iTunes; I recently got an iPad and noticed that the column browser option was greyed out. I puzzled over this for a bit but didn't mind since I don't listen to music from the iPad. However, I noticed a few days ago that the column browser is no longer available for music on my iPod either.
    I know that to get the column browser option one must click on the "songs" tab near the top of the itunes window - but I don't have that table. The whole line with "Songs/Albums/Artists/Genres/Radio/Match" is gone. It's available for music on my computer, in my itunes library - but not for anything on the iPod or iPad.
    I'm using an iPod classic, so I've got a huge amount of music there - not being able to sort using the column browser is a huge pain the boot!
    Any tips?

    Nothing?

  • Can you still sort songs by popularity, name, etc.

    Can you still sort songs by popularity, name, etc.? It does not appear as thought these options are still available.

  • Why can't I sort songs with !'s next to titles??

    Why can't I sort songs with !'s next to titles (meaning these songs don't exist in Library but actually do)? I really don't want to scroll through 5,000 titles to remove these items.

    Hi mitzlet,
    When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. For this issue, we will need to refer to the following article:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
    Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:

  • Sorting songs by 'Album by Artist/Year' bug in iTunes 9.0

    As the title suggests, there is a massive bug in the new iTunes when sorting songs by 'Album by Artist/Year.'
    Pretty much, it is not separating different discs from the same album. In a 2 disc CD, it goes like this:
    Disc 1, Track 1
    Disc 2, Track 1
    Disc 1, Track 2
    Disc 2, Track 2
    It is extremely annoying, a major oversight from Apple.
    I have attached a screenshot: http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/3134/itunesbug.jpg

    Hello,
    As far as I can see, you can't sort the order of music on the iPod Touch. It is always sorted alphabetically.
    Maybe you can suggest that as a feature to Apple.

  • Sort songs by length

    Recently, the ability to sort songs in a playlist by length has been removed. I want it to be put back in because I found it very useful.

    Updated: 2015-08-02Hello!
    This option is still available. I'm taking it you're on the desktop app: just increase the window size of the Spotify application or maximize it. The sorting option should then pop up again. ;)

  • Sorting songs

    I'm new to Itunes. I need help sorting songs in the new playlist I've created. I looked for help in the Itune tech pages which said to do this in the column marked "song". However,my column is called "name" versus "song." I can highlight, but can't get the song to drag to a new location in the list.

    I can highlight, but can't get the song to drag to a new location in the list.
    If it's sorted by Name, you cannot change the order of songs as they are sorted by name.
    If you want your own custom order, click on the first column header and drag the songs in the order you want.

    The system requirements are listed on the box, OSX is not supported. Perhaps there are unofficial ways, but someone else will have to advise on that.
