   If you select all files with -A and then use the mouse   
   to drag and drop, the files to a different folder, then   
   the file selected is copied first and then the remaining   
   files.   
      
   So if you select 0078.mp3 for drag and drop, the copy order is   
      
   0078.mp3  0079.mp3 .... 0123.mp3 0001.mp3 .....0077.mp3   
      
   So in your case, select 0001.mp3 for drag and drop.
