Hello,
I copied some songs onto a USB drive, but the problem is that I can't play them in the order I arranged. Where is the issue? If someone could explain how to do it (as simply as possible since I'm not very skilled at this!!!), I would be very grateful!!! Thank you in advance

Configuration: Windows 7 / Internet Explorer 9.0

Hello Chantal, on which device do you plug in your USB stick to listen to music?

1. If it's on your PC, and your music files are not numbered, they will be sorted alphabetically by default.

2. If it's on a home cinema system via its USB port, it's the same as PC.

3. If it's on a media player, likewise.

To be able to play your music in a specific order, you must number them, e.g.: if you have 85 tracks, the first one will be numbered 01, if you have more than 100 tracks, the first one will be numbered 001.

This needs to be done manually, of course, but once your playlist is created, according to the established numbering, your pieces will always play in the same order, regardless of the device used.

Best regards, STARGATE43.

Copying music to a USB stick in order from a PC iTunes (it should also be quite possible with Windows Media Player.)

Library >> export the playlist

Select as file type from the list >> M3u files

Save it to the USB stick, then copy and paste all the tracks from the playlist

and O miracle it works, at least on my Bluetooth speaker, they are in order
