How Do I Rearrange Songs On My iPod?

Question

I have several albums of a particular artist on my iPod video. It lists the albums in alphabetical order. I would like to have the albums listed in chronological order. How do I do it? It doesn't seem to just let me click and drag the songs where I want in iTunes. Do I have to just give the albums ratings and arrange them that way? Any Ideas?

Thanks

Answer 1

Number the albums. Use the "Get Info" function on every song from the same album, and add the number that matches the order in which they were released (remember to number 01-09 if they released ten or more albums). That's really the only way you can reorder them in the iPod menu that I've ever found. Now, you can reorder them in the iTunes interface by sorting by year, but that will sort everything in either the whole library or that specific playlist by year first and artist second. If you want to be able to play the whole catalog straight through in release order, create a playlist and add each album one at a time in order of release.
