I have often seen emails which refer the recipient to a web page URL but use a highlighted plain English phrase such as "Here" or "see this" instead of the full URL [http//: .]. A kind of shorthand and when the recipient clicks on the phrase the web page opens as if it were the full URL

Re: Order of tracks in iTunes

Check you don't have the name order listed as playing downwards instead of upwards in the display window. (Search order might be in reverse.) Kind Regards Daniel On 17/3/08 11:53 AM, "Michael Hawkins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm using iTunes v 7.6.1 (9) and OS 10.4.11. > > All the tracks

Order of tracks in iTunes
