I have been burning CD's on my iTunes for quite some time. Now when I create playlist of the songs I want in the order I want to play them, itunes Shuffles the list. This "shuffling" is not evident till the entire CD is burned...then the list is all mixed up. Is there a fix for this?
Windows 7
The CD is burned in the order in iTunes when you burn it.
When you view the CD in iTunes, it is sorting the info based on the column header you are sorting on, not the burn order. You can view/sort it in any order on any column.
Click on the very first column with the number to display them in the order they are burned in on the CD.
Or view the CD in Windows Explorer to see the burn order.
I have a ? for you, wise one. Is there any way to shuffle the playlist physically so that you can burn a newly shuffled list to a CD-R ? That is fill a playlist with 20 different albums, then shuffle them and burn a few CD-R's with the songs in random order, not in the order added to the playlist. Sometimes I fill 200 songs on a playlist and want to shuffle the list and burn it, I cannot do that with iTunes 11, it only shuffles the order it will play it. I'd have to drag the Up-Next (20 songs at a time) after shuffling the play mode and repeat cancelling out duplicates over and over to get a new playlist with a shuffle to it. This is the main reason I like iTunes, for burining random (shuffled) playlists. I hope they fix this feature soon. Thanks!
How do I prevent my playlist from getting shuffled when I burn it to a CD?
