Order of song playlists is not transferred to iPod classic

Hi there: I'm on Yosemite 10.10.5, with iTunes version 12.3.2.35. I want my playlists to play in the order of songs per album, but no matter how configure iTunes to sort, playlists always end in a different way on the iPod. The iTunes menu drop-down in the upper right shows the songs and it contains sorted by Album or, sometimes, the artist Album. I tried the Playlists and then sorted in the same way. Nothing does. How can I get iTunes and iPod to do this? Thanks in advance!

The iTunes menu drop-down in the upper right shows the songs and it contains sorted by Album or, sometimes, the artist Album.

It is for each playlist, right?  Not for your iTunes music library.  And synchronize you playlists from iPod with Auto-Sync (with the checked Sync music setting in the settings screen of music from iPod in iTunes); you do not load playlists manually (drag and drop on the iPod).

On the iPod, go to display settings on board.  There is a parameter called Shuffle.  It should be set to Off to play the song lists in the order.

  • Smart playlists are not updated on Ipod classic

    I have the latest Ipod classic 160 gb (7th gen?) with a couple of smart playlists on it. These selections are not updated on the fly on the Ipod. I don't know if they're supposed to, but I guess that if. They are updating on iTunes but I shouldn't need to sync to update the smart playlists, otherwise, they are not so smart than that.

    Any help? Thank you.

    Smart playlists act as regular playlists on the iPod.  They are only "smart" (automated) in your iTunes library on the computer.  When you sync the iPod, the changes you made on the iPod, like song of note or play counts, syncs to your iTunes library.  Update Live immediately updates your smart playlists properly, and they are synchronized to your iPod with all changes (during the same synchronization).

  • Smart playlists do not upgrade on iPod after updating to iTunes 12.4

    I noticed that smart playlists on my iPod Classic not not update on the iPod while playing. This always worked perfectly before.

    Smart playlists on an iPod Classic which has not synchronized with iTunes 12.4 again (last sync was with 12.3) work.

    After syncing with iTunes 12.4 Smart playlist on iPod updates any more.

    Reading list smart stil work on iPod Touch

    More complex smart playlist, less it is updated on the iPod itself. For example, a smart playlist that uses some other smart playlists as its reference will probably not update auto.

    Frequent sync of the iPod with iTunes updates playlists, first in iTunes then these updates are synced to iPod.

  • My Macbook Pro, El Capitan will not recognize my ipod classic 30 GB, but my windows 7 laptop work done!

    My Macbook 2010 installed pro that el capitan will recognize not my 30 GB classic ipod, but my work Windows 7 once laptop I installed iTunes does! Great, I thought, I'll reset the iPod to FACTORY DEFAULTS and clean and I hoped that my Mac would then see the ipod, but NO, not even appear in disk management. Have now tried 3 or poss 4 duct, which is a brand new 'authentic apple' one. It's really annoying. My iPhone 6 works fine, but I want the iPod when I run in the rain and connect to the older stereo on the truck. It seems that nothing wrong with the iPod itself, even if she had a replacement of the battery some time ago and worked fine since. He has never synchronized with my Macbook. I tried before El Capitan and several times since getting the laptop last year with Yosemite installed.

    Of course, I followed the Apple Support Troubleshooting, which basically is useless in this case. I have the latest version of iTunes, recently updated.

    Can someone please help! I am obsessed and really want to work. I love my iPod classic and will use it and get the case has been refurbished. It seems that historically there was a * of a lot of problems of this kind, has everyone just gave up and put their iPod to their phones in a cell?

    Any help would be appreciated. He drives me crazy and I googled all out.

    Has been one of the things you tried to put the iPod in Disk Mode?

    Put the iPod in disk - Apple Support Mode

    Is "Disk Manager" the pre-installation disk utility application?

    If you put in Disk Mode and connect, it acts as a simple USB storage device, so it should appear at least in disk utility.

  • synchronization does not work on ipod classic

    Hello

    I have an Ipod Classic, but the last time I tried to recharge the battery with a usb cable, a message informed me that a restore is necessary. I restored the ipod and suddenly I couldn't sync the ipod with itunes Gallery more. Exactly, when I try to sync the Gallery, I can push the button but the itunes message is "synchronization is complete", but no track goes to the ipod. What is going on? The iTunes version is 12.0.1.26 and the OS X version is 10.9.5. What can I do to really perform the synchronization?

    Thank you very much.

    Marco

    If you do a restore, current iTunes sets the iPod to use the parameter manually manage music and videos , by default.  If you want to use automatic synchronization, select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.

    Check the box to Sync music.  This enables automatic synchronization.  Below, if your library complete iTunes music fits on the iPod, choose the option to synchronize the entire music library.  Click apply.

  • Altered playlist does not transfer

    My problem is actually very similar to the example in the FAQ, but I couldn't find a solution here.

    I have a list of songs in WMP 11 on Windows XP SP2, my rocket is the 1.02.31 firmware. I have a bunch of new songs/podcasts that I added and can play in WMP, I also added the to an existing selection.

    When I try to synchronize the list with the "rocket" it seems that the files are transferred, but isn't the playlist update. If I select the playlist altered on the "rocket" it displays only the songs that were already in the playlist. If I check under artist the new songs are there. If I create a new playlist with songs that they will all be there.

    Does anyone know why the modified playlist is not transferred?

    FYI: some of the podcasts have been downloaded on iTunes, but I moved around the files in different folders - iTunes is not very happy, but I'm being implemented and WMP can access any better this way.  The thing is, I can still play in WMP and they appear perfectly on the list of synchronization as having synchronized.  They also played fine on my rocket for months, but don't show up now.  I erased everything (playlist, podcast and song-wise) and rebooted, changed the format for PSG, but the modified playlist will not transfer.

    I looked at, but what you suggested is already done - all I want to synchronize is in the playlist to the sync list.  I also checked the playlists in the installation of the device and all of the podcasts that are supposed to be there, are there.  And yet, and yet, when I unplug it from the computer, podcasts do not appear on the playlist.

    Thanks for the suggestion though no matter what else I could try?

    Podcasts are labelled "podcast" in the field of the kind of the ID3 tags? If so, they will probably be added to the Podcast folder, not the folder music. And even if they are in your music folder, 'podcasts' cannot be added to a playlist, nor can one be created that contains podcasts. You would have to change the field 'genre' (in the ID3 tag) to something else than "podcast" for misleading the reader into thinking that it is a music file. As long as the file is .mp3 for example, and you change the type to something else, you should then be able to include them in your playlists.

    But if you do know you won't have the other options available that are only podcasts.

  • iPod Classic does not appear in iTunes

    My macbook release 10.9.5. iTunes (version 12.1) does not recognize my iPod classic Model # MB147LL version 1.2.2PC. I tried to reboot, reset, update, but it will not recognize to sync the iPod. My computer recognizes the iPod but not iTunes.

    The latest version of iTunes (12.5.1) should work on OS X 10.9.5.  Is there a reason that you are using an older version of iTunes.  A classic iPod should work with even older versions of iTunes, but there may be a problem with the specific version you have (fixed in a later version).

    If update does not help (or if you don't want to update iTunes), given that the iPod is recognized by the system, it seems to have a data connection.  Try to put the iPod in Disk Mode.

    How to put your iPod in disc - Apple Support mode

    Before you connect iPod, stop (power off) MacBook and disconnect all the USB devices.  Plug the MacBook power adapter (so it does not work on battery).  Startup MacBook, launch iTunes and connect the iPod (in disc Mode) on a USB direct on MacBook, by himself.

    If he picks up iTunes, it should invite you to do a restore with a message on the "recovery."  This erases the iPod, so if you're OK with that (because the content of the iPod is in your iTunes library), do the restore.  If all goes well, the iPod appears in iTunes (normally) after the restoration.

  • Change the order of songs in playlists on iPad not reflected on computer after synchronization

    I note that changing the order of songs in playlists on iPad is not on the computer after synchronization, but change the order on the computer is reflected on the iPad after synchronization. Is this a bug or a feature?

    It's normal.  Your library is always the master, and what you have on your device is always secondary.  The only thing your iPad can change in your library's ribs song game counties and new playlists (not edited) created on the iPad.

  • Cannot change the order of songs in my playlists on my new iPhone 7 (iOS 10.02). How can I fix?

    CAN I change the order on my MacBook Air when my phone is connected (but the changes are not published on my phone)

    Hello, wolfebait!

    Welcome to congratulations on getting a new iPhone and Apple support communities 7.  I see your message that you are having problems changing the order of song into playlists that you created, but it only happens on your new iPhone.  I have several playlists I created myself, and I sometimes have to change the order of songs as well.  I'm happy to help you with this.

    1. Open your music app.
    2. Type library on the bottom left.
    3. Touch Playlists.
    4. Press the Playlist you want to change (it must be one that you have created, as organized playlists cannot be changed).
    5. Press 'Edit' at the top right of your screen.
    6. You should now see red circles 'remove' to the left of each song and three horizontal lines gray right of each song.
    7. Press the grey horizontal lines with your finger and drag the song to the position in the playlist that you want it to be in.
    8. When you have finished editing, type "Done" in the upper right corner.
    9. Your playlist should now be in the new order that you chose!

    Have a great rest of your week!

  • iCloud music library playlists can include music from your music library to iCloud. This playlist cannot be downloaded, because it includes other types of media or songs that are not eligible

    Some Audio files are not eligible in icloud library, how can I force icloud to copy in my iphone. They are legitimate files (audio course)

    The elements should be considered as songs (music).  They must be your music iTunes library.  If they are categorized as another type of media (through iTunes), as a podcast or an audio book, you cannot then put on a playlist that is in your music to iCloud library.

    The song file may not exceed 200 MB.  The song should not be longer than 2 hours.  The song encoding cannot be 96 Kbps or less.

    If your audio elements (like songs) are not eligible, you will be able to modify them to make them eligible.  How depends on the reason to be ineligible.  Alternatively, if you have iTunes classify 'song' as a podcast or an audio book, you can load them on the iPhone the 'old school' way, live sync.  To change the category of the item in the window to read the information of the element (in the Options tab) change Media kind of music Podcast or audiobook.

    What does that mean? I have iTunes game and not really encountered problems previously? I don't understand why I get this message? I'm just trying to create a playlist. Other playlists seem to be OK?

    Hello

    The playlist includes either a music file not for example PDF or a music file that is not eligible. Add iCloud status column to your playlist (view of the song) and it will tell you what is unacceptable.

  • reverse order of the playlist

    I recently made a playlist with all my songs in order of when I have them but they are out of order and I just want to reverse the order, I can't sort by date added, because I jumped on top of spotify and have downloaded chunks of apple's music I had on spotify

    So just, is anyway to reverse the order of my playlist

    instead of it going to a, b, c and d I want it to go d, c, b, a.,

    Thank you

    The current order is given by the left most column of numbers. Click on the header of this column if not currently selected, and then click the small black triangle to reverse the order. Right/Ctrl-click on the name of the playlist and click on Copy to Play Order, then click on the triangle again so that it points upward if necessary.

  • What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were delete

    What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were deleted songs?  I always manually move files to prevent this.  I'm on Windows 10.

    Has no way to know that...

    If your library iTunes music fits on the storage space of 160 GB of your iPod classic, you just set to automatically sync your entire library of music.  Then, it won't matter which has been removed and which do not get deleted, because your iPod music library is the same as your library iTunes music.  And iTunes it keeps this way, every time your iPod connection (or click sync , if already connected).

    If you don't want "everything" in your iTunes library on your iPod (understandable), you can create a playlist in your iTunes library with all the songs you want on the iPod.  Then, set to automatically synchronize the playlist to iPod.  Instead of manually managing iPod, you manually manage playlist in your iTunes library.  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes will update the iPod with the same changes.  The big advantage is, if something happens like what you describe, or needs to restore iPod (erased) or even if break you your iPod (and get a new), need you a few mouse clicks to solve the problem.  Just set it up to sync the same playlist once again, which exists in your library iTunes (not only on the iPod).

    You can post back for more information about how to use automatic synchronization to do what you want more easily, go ahead.

  • Order of the Playlist WMP gets blurred

    When I create a Playlist with the album titles in my library (ripped from a CD, for the most part), the order in which I organize the list is reconfigured (in WMP) when I burn on a CD list.  (I've recently experienced while trying to burn CDs of music of Christmas for me and a few friends.)   After a few head scratches and reflect on possibilities, I concluded that the function of burning in WMP reorders the songs using a 2-step process, repeated.  First, it uses the numbers of tracks of the songs as they appear on the original albums involved.  Thus, all the songs in MY Playlist created that have a '1' who associated with them (from the position that each of them has in the list of the respective tracks from his album) are now sorted in a subgroup of "song 1" (as I call it).  The next thing that WMP does apparently is to sort this 'new' subgroup title song, by alphabetical order.  After this, he repeats the procedure above for each number (numbered tracks 2, then 3, then 4 and so on).

    The result of this process is that I find myself with a CD that includes all my selected songs, but the list that I created, with the order of the songs is intended to take one on a 'musical journey' of sorts, LOST.

    Is it possible to overcome this apparent process 'default' when you save a Playlist in WMP?  In other words... Is there a way to "say" WMP to burn the list in the order in which it was created?

    BTW... It is a Windows 7 PC, with what I think is WMP 12.

    HI - "Ric" is very well... now, regarding this download problem, looks like something caused a conflict... possibly with this flash drive. I think that a "System Restore" back to before the attempt, which could be the best bet here and quite quickly too. What is the purpose of downloading 'security' anyway? I'm still working on the theory that my safety feature will do what is necessary. Once you have successfully completed a test to restore the iTunes download again before doing anything else.

    You have discovered a way that I had to do on the disc and the reading list, and I have since discovered that WMP will also change the order of a list of iTunes playlist - everything depends on how you open it! But... the list of iTunes will play on any other mp3 player (for example, a DVD or a cd mp3 player enabled) in the order of the pieces and not by folder. The only way to completely avoid it is to burn "audio" discs, but then you are limited to 79 (and a bit) minutes of recording.

    I learned a little more about this me thus!

    You may need a little help familiarize yourself with iTunes once you have downloaded, so don't hesitate to come back to me - and I would like to know how the system restore etc...

    Goodbye for now - R
