iTunes/iPod issue

**MVP** · 03-03-2007, 07:57 PM

When I update my iPod, some of the songs on certain albums in my library get copied out of order. At first I thought they were also out of order on iTunes, but everything is listed correctly. The only thing I can point out is in some of the messed up albums, the songs off of them that I listen to the most end up at the top and the rest of the songs are in order.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Hoping that it isn't something painfully obvious.

try right clicking a song from one of those messed up albums and click "get info". Click through the tabs until you get to the one where you can type in the song name, artist, etc. Under the track number field, is the number listed the same number as on the album? Because if it's not, that's your problem.

Other than that, I dunno.

i know i have a shit load of songs where you can't edit the info, and they show up in my library at the bottom of the songs that have complete/right info. it's kinda like having 2 librarys if this makes sense. if this is your problem, try downloading them with editable tags. if not, i gots no clue.

Yeah Funky I already tried going through the tags on iTunes and the songs are labelled correctly. I also checked out the mp3 tags in properties and everything is normal.

I think it's some kind of glitch where the songs I play most off an album end up at the beginning of each album when recorded to my iPod. When I updated my iPod yesterday the only option that looked suspicious to me was "Sync Music List", but I think that may be entirely different.
