Andrew, I know I am extremely late to the party but I too use Grid View. I had the same problem that you had but have found this to work for me. I used it and it is still holding as my default sorting even after switching between the Artist page and Grid View.
Once you are inside of the Artist page continue to click on the Album column until it shows Album by Artist/Year.
That will give you each album sorted by the year instead of it randomly sorting it for you each time you leave an Artist's page and then back again.
Hope this helps.

I can't transfer downloaded content from my macbook air to my external hdd, when i try to drag it into the hrd drive it wont go in how do i fix this ?

i can't transfer downloaded content from my macbook air to my external hdd, when i try to drag it into the hrd drive it wont go in how do i fix this ?

What format is the external HDD in? If it's NTFS (= proprietary Windows), then OS X can read it but not write.
Eventually copy all content from the drive to a safe place, the re-format. FAT32 is the format which both Windows and OS X can read and write.

I need to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. Does anyone know how this works??

I have to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. (I have a Comcast address and am switching to U-verse) I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. I'm also trying to find out if changing my apple ID is going to interfere with getting my itunes content on my computer and my iphone. Does anyone know how this works??

My iTunes appleID is an old defunct e-mail address - it does not have to be functional.
Do what Winston says to ensure you keep getting correspondence related to that ID.

Since updating to iOS 6, my iPad 2 keeps loosing connection with iTunes. I have tried changing the date, logging out then back in, iTunes is updated.....what's going on???? I can't update any apps nor can I download new ones.....

What's going on with iOS6...... Since I updated to it, I have had nothing but hassles....

Are you losing the connection to iTunes on the iPad or the computer? You are saying that iTunes is updated. Of course iTunes is updated when you update the iOS software. That's a no brainer.
If you mean that iTunes is updated on the computer, that has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with downloading and updating apps on the iPad itself so changing the date on the iPad, signing in and out of the stores on the iPad .... Doing any of that on the iPad would have nothing to do with iTunes on your computer.
If .... you have not been able to connect to the iTunes or app stores at all on the iPad - try this ...
Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If you can't connect at all - you can also try rebooting your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

When i open cellular data from iPhone..it goes from 4g to 3g instantly an then after a while it goes to 4g..and the same thing again when i turn it back on..that didn't occured with ios7..does anyone have this issue?

I don't think it's normal because it connects to 4g without data on and then when it's on it goes to 3g until it reconnects to 4g..i don't know what to do!

No. You have no alternative but to plug it into a computer running iTunes and restore it.

In iPhoto 11 changing the Date and Time EXIF becomes Garbage?

Hi- the new photo date I choose for a photo (say 1946) turns into garbage after saving - like 1165 or 1492- ( and Columbus would be suprised).
Detail: About 5 years ago in Windows PC in XP folders I scanned old family pics into folder for 1946 and all was well= until few months back in 2011 I crossed over to Mac Book Air and iPhoto 11.
However iphoto doesnt care for file name- Its sorts all in event date based on scan date- exif date- embedded by the scanner when I did it. OK. Smarter.
So to change its date I select each photo in iphoto11- then select "change date" and changed the date what I want it to say (like 06/06/1946) - and saved .
Problem. Now it has two dates against it - one date in year 1492 and the other in 1765- .
I have tried changing the date differently using the little Up or Down arrows, and its scrolls (eventually!) to 1946 -I do a save..... and another crazy date turns up-
Am guessing so its got to be a trick related to the " day counter"- mind you I dont see the pint of telling me that my photo is having its date changed by some quantity of thousands of days- Doh that sounds very Windows like.
I must be doing it wrong.
Any experts please?
Thanks in advance !

Thanks AppleMan1958, you're right.
My view was set to Favorites and Unmarked so when I imported the video, rejected parts of it, and THEN changed the date I was unable to see that I wasn't changing the date on the rejected portion. I changed the view to All Clips (in the View menu) and then I could plainly see that the rejected clips still had the current date.

Batch change the date

You can batch change the time zone, and you can change the date and time, but can you batch change the date on photos? I would like to change the date on a number of images to a certain date, but I don't want to have to change the date on each one manually one by one.

Your answer solved the issue, but left me perplexed about something else. For the sake of example, I am going to be talking about scanned images here. Now, this may be a totally moot point, because scanned images may behave differently than regular images from a camera regarding date and time. I have changed all of the scans so that the dates are all the same day. This is the day that I scanned the images. However, when I view the project in the Projects browser, the date shows a range from well before the date I set to well after it. This seems very odd to me, because none of the scanned images in the project have the dates shown in the projects browser. Do you know anything about this?

Can't change the date and time

On a recent trip abroad, my N96 automatically switched to the local time on arrival, but it failed to switch back to UK time when I returned. Now my phone is stuck 3 hours ahead, and it won't let me change the date or time manually. When I select Settings | General | Date and time, and click Open, 'Change' flashes up briefly, but even if I'm fast enough to click it, nothing happens.
I've tried reverting to the Factory Settings, but that did not resolve the problem. I've also checked for Firmware updates, but there aren't any. Any suggestions for fixing this would be very welcome...

Your operator doesn't seem to support time autoupdate while the operator you connected to while abroad does.
Go into the clock settings and set auto time update to "off". Then set the time zone to "GMT 0:00 London". This should bring the clock's time back to what it should be. If it doesn't, at least you can do so manually now (having auto time update set to "on" removes your ability to set the date and time manually).

How can I change the date on photos I got from someone else?

I attended an event with a friend and the photos of hers that I downloaded from Facebook have a very old date (December 2009). I suspect she doesn't have the date set in her camera. So iPhoto thinks the event went from Dec. 31, 2009 to Aug. 24, 2012 and organizes it in Events in Dec 31 2009, so it isn't where I look for it. I have tried changing the date on the pictures I got from her, but that field is uneditable for those pictures. I can change it on my own, but not hers. How do I get these photos to show the correct date so that they appear in the correct order?

No worries. I asked pretty much the same question about 2 years ago. After all the problems I come here to have solved, I finally solved someone else's!

When I imported my photos to iphoto 11 from an external drive they were no longer chronologically organized in folders by year & month. In fact, it changed the dates & years of the files so I can't even manually organize them.

When I imported my photos to iphoto 11 from an external drive they were no longer chronologically organized in folders by year & month. Instead, they all went into one folder within a 2011 folder. In fact, it randomly changed the dates & years of all the files so I can't even manually organize them now.

Are you sure that iPhoto is the app for you?
iPhoto is designed to help you organise your Photos, but you seemed focussed on organising files.
The idea is simple: organise them as you want in the iPhoto Window. As I said above, as you never access the files on the HD then how iPhoto stores them is of no relevance. (It's by date of import BTW).
Where are you seeing these changed dates? In the iPhoto Window ? Somewhere else?

My events photo albums have all been renamed with a number followed by IMPRT instead of the date which was how they were originally named. Also the photo now showing on the top of each folder is not actually in that folder. How do I restore?

My events photo albums have all been renamed with a number followed by IMPRT (deleting the date on which they were taken) Also the photo now showing on the top of each folder is taken from a different event and so is not actually in the album it is sitting on top of. This happened when I linked to itunes. Any idea how to restore it to how it looked before?

One thing that I find odd is that iTunes used to rebuild the .itl file when you deleted it. It seems as if the newer iTunes somehow broke this old capability. If you delete the .itl file it can't rebuild it- it simple treats this as if this is a fresh installation and completely ignores the fact that the .xml file has all the data in it. I think Apple needs to bring back this old "feature". Of course, the negative with that was that you lost all of the "Date Added" info along with some other stuff but at least it still kept the favorites info etc. (and I think maybe even the path although I don't believe I ever tried that because my account path has never changed until now).
One side note: I can't find where the iTunes Windows SDK is. I was hoping to try to use that to access the .itl "database" and write a utility to fix this situation. Seems like this has moved from its original location...

While importing pictures I cannot change the import settings on the right hand side of the panel. I would like to change the date format.

Apparently I am missing something (stupid). Suggestions are welcome. I'm a novice with Lightroom. Just migrated from Aperture.

I am going to assume that what you meant about changing the date format is that you want to change the way the date is formatted in the renamed file. Is that correct? To do that, you need to tell Lightroom you want to rename your photos during import. On the right hand side panel of the Import dialog is a section on File Renaming. Open that up and you will find a Template drop down box. This is where you can build a file renaming template to fit your needs or you can create a custom one. If you do create your own, make sure to save it as a preset if you want to reuse later. There are all sorts of ways to rename your files with several different date formats to choose from.
Another possibility is the subfolder option for where you are going to store your imported folders. If you chose to Organize By Date, you can also use the Date Format drop down box to choose a date format. This will cause Lightroom to build a folder for each date found in photos you are importing a create a separate folder for each day found. So, if you had three batches of photos from three separate days, three new folders would be built by Lightroom and the photos created on day one would be stored in the day one folder. Same for day two and day three.
Finally, if you don't like the format of the capture date or one of the other dates fields stored in the metadata, you are out of luck. You can change the date but not the format.

Changing the Date and Time of photos

Hello,
i have been importing images from my windows machine and want all the dates to be correct, i have seen the adjust date and time, and made the changes but under the events the dates dont change and when i click individual photos the dates and times are not changing.
so i was wondering how do i change the time for each photo and event? can i change the time to a start and finish date rather than just one date?
Any help with the above would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I have just looked at this again, i dont see an option to set both a start and end date, any ideas?
That is not an an option - and it makes no sense
You can do one of three things:
1 - add a constant delta to all selected photos thereby correcting an incorrect setting on a camera and preserving the sequence and integrity of the photos dates ad times
2 - change the date and time for all selected photos to a specific value
3 - change the date and time for all selected photos to a base value plus an increment for each successive photo.
There are two choices under the photos menu
1 - adjust date and time - this adds a constant Delta to the selected photos - is is designed for correcting camera times or time zones but keeping the basic sequence
2 - batch change date and time - this simply changes the date & time to your selected value with an option to add an increment to each
Both have an option to modify the original photo which I do (I'm not sure why you would not want to modify the original)
And when i go into photos, the ones that i have altered by +Photos >>> Adjust Date and Time+ still have different times and dates, any ideas?
AS described in the iPhoto help and above
1 - adjust date and time - this adds a constant Delta to the selected photos - is is designed for correcting camera times or time zones but keeping the basic sequence
So after adjusting time and date all photos selected will have the time and date changed by the same amount (a constant delta) and if they were all different before they will still all be different - if they were all the same before adjustment they will still all be the same but at a different value

I open a calendar on a vendor website and when i try to change the date Firefox crashes.

I use a vendor's website to change retails on products that I sell. The default date for the changes is the next day. I can make the changes happen on a future date. When I open the calendar to change the date, Firefox immediately crashes when I click on a future date.

i have had a similar issue that u r describing with my ipad, but wirh a slight variation. my calendar is working fone, but if i try to use the search function, my calendar completely freezes, and the only way i have been able to resolve this is to go into my settinsgs tab, then go to set the date, and set the date to a prior date. for example, i was stuck on jan 7th 2014, and when i changed the date to a date in 2011, the calendar unfroze and allowed me to jump to any date i wanted. i was then able to go into the settings tab and enter and set my ipad to the correct date. there seems to be a defect on the ios i am using, 4.xx, with using the search function in the upper right hand corner. the only way to prevent this is to refrain from using the search function within the calendar.

Can I transfer my hand made album sequence (sort order) defined in element when I turn a local album into a mobile album used with IPAD. Or do I have to change the dates artificially?
