Hi Mark, I'm not sure how you're syncing your playlists, but in general for iTunes, if you create a playlist and want to make sure that it is ordered the way that you want, view the playlist in iTunes the way it should appear. Generally, that should be the order in which you added items. Assuming that you have set up your iTunes in list view in the "Classic" display mode that was used prior to iTunes 11, jump back to the playlist in the sidebar with VO-J, then bring up the context menu with VO-Shift-M and select "Copy to Play Order". This forces the playlist item order to match the order that was displayed in the table of playlist tracks. If you had sorted that table by artist, album, track name, or some other column, and then jumped back to the playlist in the sidebar with VO-J, brought up the context menu and selected "Copy to Play Order", this would force the playlist item order to match your current sorted order. This is not specific to the iPhone 5 or iOS -- it should work for any Apple iPod, as well, that is connected to your computer and is synced. If you're trying to sync through the cloud, I'm not sure whether this will work. The sidebar only appears if you have iTunes 11 back in the "Classic" view (e.g., you pressed "Command-Option-S" to toggle the sidebar back on). I also assume you have selected the "Songs" radio button and are using list view.
Is there some reason that you need to use the weather underground with a high visual user interface content? What's wrong with using the mobile version of the weather underground page? I use the weather underground mobile site, which has the URL: http://m.wund.com/ They even have a mobile site that is optimized for the iPhone, that I use on my iPhone: http://i.wund.com/ Type in your city or postal code into the text box and then press return. You can bookmark this page. On the iPhone I double tap the "Go" button in the bottom right corner of the virtual keyboard. Then, once you have the forecast page for your city, save it to your home screen by double tapping the Safari "Utilities" button at the bottom of your screen, just above the home button. Double tap the "Add to Home Screen" button, and you'll be able to access the weather report for your city, both current and forecast. As for finding iOS 6 changes, assuming you want VoiceOver specific announcements, try the Vision Australia podcast pages. I just typed "vision australia ios 6" into my Google Search and got taken to their web page on Smartphones, tablets and Apple iOS devices. There are a number of entries under "Apple iOS 6" including feature changes and accessibility, etc. Here's a shortened link to those pages: http://bit.ly/11rFPrL HTH.
