For that function, namely, moving files from one folder to another, I'd just try cutting and pasting.
For my problem, it was properly ordering files in a play list. I have found a solution. 1. Add the files to ITunes and manually name and tag them correctly so that all the files you wish for a custom album are all together. 2. Now, make an empty play list with nothing in it but give that play list a name. Now, focus on the list of files you just added to iTunes. 3. Next, find the first file you wish to put in the new empty play list. 4. Add that file to the new play list using the short cut menu add to play list option and choose the list. 5. Do this file by file until you have them all added. Doing this will force the files to be in the correct order. In other words, with this method, you are building a play list just exactly the same way as you do on the iPhone. 6. Now, launch the file track numbering script and make sure that the track number option is checked and that you also check the set track number to what ever number of files are in that new list. Let it do its thing. Sent from my Mac, the only computer with full accessibility for the blind built-in! Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray, still a very happy Mac and Iphone 5 user!
