Itunes Song Order

LukinFan

How do you switch the order of the songs in Itunes? For some reason it has the songs listed in alphabetical order for one albumand I can't figure out how to make it correct. Anyone know how to switch them around?

Edit: Problem solved- thanks Bo Browns19!!!

Answer: If that's the case, that it's only that particular album, right click each song individually, click get info, then click the info tab. you should see two boxes on the right that say track number [blank] of [blank.] Fill this in accordingly. For example, on No Code, Sometimes is 1-13, Hail Hail is 2-13, and so on. That should fix it.

do you want to change the playlist order or the library order? if its the library order- you can't change that. If its a playlist, then select the playlist you want. Then click right above the number column, and then you can change the order of the songs by dragging them around.

yeah, it's the library order. It's in the correct order on my computer in my microsoft music files, but when I dragged it over to itunes, it automatically put in alphabetical order- this has never happened before

what is it sorted as? if it is sorted under name, it will put it in alphabetical order.
it could also be some kind of imput in the info screen. If the titles are one step over, it will put the songs to the top of the list.

I'm confused, what do you mean is it sorted under name? The name of the band? Album name?

I have other albums by the same group on there as well and they are all listed correctly
