With the SD card, is there any way to have the songs listed by album track number rather than the first letter of the song title?

Use "File" at the top level.

Download "DriveSort" and run that on the SD card; it will fix that.
Yes, you have to run it again when you add a new folder.
This is a serious brain fart on Pioneer's part (sorting a returned list is one function call in Android) but until they fix it (if they do) at least there's a workaround.

There is simply no excuse for this on an Android-based head unit given that it's literally one line of code to sort the list.

I am not sure that the NEX head units are based on Android as the base OS. I do know that QNX is used a lot as for various radios and systems as well as middleware to connect these devices.

The NEX units are Android-based. This has been determined with certainty.
In any event a sort routine is one of the first things any programmer learns; both bubble and quicksorts are trivial pieces of code.

I too googled for a Mac equivalent. Found some that may work, but I've never used a Mac... amounting to, I can't make a recommendation. Perhaps use trial and error... or post to a Mac-centric or Apple forum for assistance.
