To make a smart playlist with all number 4 tracks, use Command-Option- N to create the smart playlist. Then use a rule: <Track Number> <is> 4. Press (VO-Space) the first pop up button in the rules section and press "t r" quickly to change the setting from "Artist" to "Track Number". The next pop up button will be "is", which you can leave (or change to something else, like a range of values). Type in "4" in the text field, stop interacting, and press enter to commit your selections and be taken to the dialog window to name the playlist. One thing that might help is to quickly move between the songs table and playlist to check the results of changes you make in rules. Use VO-J to jump between playlist and songs table listing and back. If you have "Mouse cursor follows VoiceOver cursor" checked under your Navigation options in VoiceOver Utility (VO-F8), then you can Option- Click on the smart playlist to edit it (i.e., hold down the Option key and click the Trackpad on your laptop or mouse button -- there may be something else for NumPad Commander). Otherwise, use the context menu (VO-Shift-M) and choose "Edit smart playlist". Add or change a rule, commit by pressing enter, and jump back to your songs table with VO-J to see what changes were made.
