How do I sort a playlist by filename in iTunes? I want to import an audiobook where there are 14 folders on the form "Author - CD ## - Title", and the mp3-files are on the form "### - Author - Title" (incrementally over all CDs, so the last file of 'CD 01' is named '012...", and the first file of 'CD 02' is named '013...'.

However, the ID3 tag stupidly consist of "Title = Author", and nothing else. And when imported the files are scattered around randomly in the playlist.

How do I sort a playlist by filename?

or; How do I remove the ID3-tags of a folder of folders of mp3-files on Mac easily.
Unfortunately this is not possible. As there isn't a column available for filename, one can't sort by it.

If you're willing to take the time, you can input the metadata and sort by track number. You'd only really need to enter the track numbers incrementally (like the file names), but you might instead choose to number the tracks per disk and then input which disk they're on as well. This way would need to be sorted by Album rather than track number, as it would otherwise go 1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3,… rather than 1,2,3,…1,2,3,…1,2,3,….

Sorry it's so inconvenient, but I hope this works for you. :)
