Q: How do I reorder playlists within their folder?

How can I reorder or alphabetize playlist within a specific folder in Itunes? I feel like it used to automatically alphabetize, but lately

it just adds the new playlist last within the folder....any ideas? To be specific, I am not talking about reordering songs within playlists,

but putting the individual playlists in alphabetical order within the folders...

OS X El Capitan (10.11.1), null

    I had the same problem, not only with playlists, but also with Playlist Folders. When added to a preexisting folder, the new one always fell to the bottom. Today I have discovered that the playlists and the folders (or better the sub-folders) go the the correct alphabetical position after closing iTunes and making a full exit. When iTunes was started anew, I found the new playlists and folders in the correct position.

    I'm using OS X El Capitan 10.11.2 and iTunes 12.3.2.35.

     

    Good luck.

    Holy mackerel. It was that easy. I guess merely closing Itunes doesn't always make it completely shut down. I shut it down then opened it fresh and *bingo* all was right in the world. Thanks a lot for your response. I love it when it's easier than i expected!
