Sorting The Songs?

I've just gotten an iPod mini. (Actually won it). When I add new songs into them, they are not arranged alphabetically but are at the bottom of the list. How do I sort them alphabetically?

First of all, we absolutely hate you for winning an iPod. Second, we absolutely hate stoopid questions.

Just kidding! Congrats on winning a mini and welcome to PhilMUG. In iTunes, click on any column header (e.g Song Name, Artist, Album) to sort your songs accordingly.

You need to use the "Copy To Play Order" command.

In a nutshell, re-order the tracks in a playlist as you see fit (in this case, click on the Name column to alphabetize the list). Once you're done, control-click on the playlist and select "Copy To Play Order". Your iPod will display the tracks as you've re-ordered them. Take note that you need to select the "Copy To Play Order" command each time you add songs to the playlist, because they are automatically added to the bottom of the list.
