Mac Users: How can I set up iTunes playlists in order to avoid that is organized by A to Z?

Question

I made a playlist, but it automatically organized it from A to Z (song names....) so, I would like to know if there's a way to just keep it as I drop the song, to burn it after.

Thank you Jeff F, but it keep doing the same thing... :( another hint?

Answer 1

Yes. Select the playlist, then from the View menu choose "View Options" (last item on the menu). Check the box labeled "Date Added" then click OK. Now you have a new "Date Added" column in the playlist (you may need to scroll right to see it). Click the column heading, and the songs will be sorted in the order you added them to the playlist.

(In response to your reply...)
That's very odd. OK, perhaps Date Added refers to the date added to the library, not the playlist. Here's an alternative: using the same logic as above, but this time add the "Comment" column to the display. Now click on the song you want to be first in the playlist, chose Get Info from the File menu, and type the number 01 in the Comments field. Keep doing this for each song in turn, marking the second one 02, etc. Finally sort the list by the Comment column and voila!

Answer 2

Shuffle affects everything. Turn off shuffle or it will not allow custom sorting of playlists.

To change the order of songs in a playlist, select the playlist and then drag the songs into the order you want. If you can't drag a song, click the column heading above the numbers (It's a triangle pointing up or down.). You can't reorder songs if they're sorted by one of the other headings or if shuffle is on.
