Iphoto album sort order issue.

Stadard iphoto album (iphoto 11) being manually sorted suddendly reverted to what appears to be a random sort order.  The order now is not by date, camera, keyword, or any other.  It appears to have set its own manual order.  How can this happen? Is there a way to revert back to the previous sort order?  Even if I had mistakenly reset the manual sort, wouldn't it default back to one of the standard sort criteria?

want to replace the original photos in the event
You don't have to.  If you look at the photo in the Event that tghe photo came from you'll find that it has been edited. 
The photos in albums are only pointers to the original photo in the Event.  There's no file duplication in the process of adding a photo to an album.

  • Album sort order missing

    I want to use 'Recently Added' in album view while hiding all rated albums.
    I do not understand why the new 'album' sort order is restricted to only a few fields, while the 'songs' sort order doesn't have the two-level; sorting that the album sort order has. Both of these views have half the functionality I want.

    Figured it out. I added "Various Artists" in the Album Artist field for every track and it then sorted them all together.

  • Moving Multiple Albums & Album Sort Order Questions

    Hopefully this is a really easy question to answer, but I just can't figure out how to do this.
    1. Can you move multiple albums around in Aperture? I just imported my iPhoto libraries and I'd like to groups a set of the albums that I have into one project. The problem is that I can only move one album at a time.
    2. Can you specify the sort order or manual set the order that albums appear in projects or folders? It seems that Aperture automatically sorts them alphabetically.
    Thanks!

    1. Can you move multiple albums around in Aperture?
    unfortuantely, as far as i am aware you can only move one at a time
    2. Can you specify the sort order or manual set the
    order that albums appear in projects or folders? It
    seems that Aperture automatically sorts them
    alphabetically.
    you are correct, automatically alphabetically only ... i haven't been abble to change this at all ... the only way to force something else is by adding a ~ or other character that is ahead of 0 ...

  • Album sort order PSE11 - is it by design ?

    When experimenting with the sort order of albums in PSE11, I was surprised to see that in some albums, changing the sort order from 'oldest' to 'newest' did not produce any effect.
    The reason of this probably lies in the menu /preferences/general :
    If you have only pictures taken the same day, the above setting will still show 'oldest first' even you choose 'newest first' for album order.
    I believe that the most used order is 'album order' and that the 'newest first' is very rare.
    I can understand the option to browse 'oldest first within each day' when in 'newest first' in thumbnail view.
    However, I wonder if that option makes sense to sort an album ?
    Was it by design ?
    If it were me...
    I would not use that preference for an album,
    and...
    I would add the option to sort by filename and caption.

    Figured it out. I added "Various Artists" in the Album Artist field for every track and it then sorted them all together.

  • How do you change the album sort order in itunes

    It seems that Itunes sorts albums by Artist then Album... How can you change sort order to Album name only. 

    I've been playing with this and discovered it has to do with your personal ratings (ie stars) for albums and songs - seems iTunes now selects the highest rated album to use for the Artist icon. If you have no ratings it seems (but not always) to select the most recent album/song to use fo rthe display.
    I've been able to get iTunes to use specific album artowk by rating both the album and all individual tracks as 5 star. You may need to restart iTunes for the changes to take effect.
    But I'd be much happier just telling iTunes which image to use - like we used to be able to do. Yet another step backwards for iTunes 11 (one of many).

  • Album sort order suddenly gone crazy iTunes

    G'day people
    For some reason, the last couple of albums I've downloaded from the iTunes store, to my iTunes, displays those albums groups by artist instead of album. Even when I select them an manually change the sort order it makes no difference.
    Pre-existing albums already in iTunes are not affected, just newly downloaded. This is also happening with albums I purchase directly from the iPhone and sync back to iTunes on my Mac.
    Has anybody else come across this problem and have any suggestions on how I can fix it?
    Cheers

  • ITunes U Sort Order Issue

    I purchase a lot of audio courses from a company called the Teaching Company. I buy and download them as MP3's and they've worked great on all my iPods (I have a nano, a classic, and a touch 64GB). I previously kept all of the course lectures in my Audiobook section to keep them separate from my music and podcasts and other media. This was fine until I decided to purchase an Audible account and began to build up a large library of audiobooks as well. When I got my brand new 64GB iPod Touch and the new iTunes, I saw that iTunes U was now a separate entity within my library. So, for organizational purposes and to allow me to better fine-tuning of my sync preferences (I much more media than could ever fit on any of my iPods at one time), I moved all my educational and lecture media out of my Audiobooks area and into iTunes U by editing the tags through "get info".
    This has worked just fine except for one mysterious problem.
    When I view any of these audio courses (each course is an album) in iTunes, they display fine in normal sort order by track number. But when I go to listen to them on my iPod, the sort order is all jumbled up and all the tracks are out of order. So I cannot listen to the classes from one lecture to another, at the end of each lecture I must exit back to the album and FIND the next lecture. They appear to be sorted in no obvious order (not alphabetical, not by name, not by track number). Again, they are set to sort by track number in iTunes and they display (and play) perfectly straight through in iTunes. But on my iPod, the sort order is completely messed up.
    So, what's going on? Why? And how can I fix it??

    Set your track numbers correctly (by right clicking, clinking 'Get Info' and clicking on the info tab), and make sure you also set the totals (e.g. 12 of 18 - the "of 18" is what I mean by the totals). This sorted it out on my iPod.
    This worked for me for my Teaching Company files. They were all jumbled previously because they took the track numbers from the default import from the internet. Once I changed it, no problem.
    It would be better if Apple allowed just a dragging, or if there was a quick tool, but at least this works.
    I had previously been using "Join Together" for stuff like this. I think I like this method better, though. I can still keep the individual lecture files on a playlist, but not have to worry about all the separate titles in a general listing.

  • Hyperion Planning- Account dimension - Sort Order Issue with ODI 11.1.1.5

    Hello Experts,
    First of all, I thank you everybody in this forum for posting their valuable suggestions.
    I am facing a strange issue with ODI (Version 11.1.1.5) while loading metadata to Planning ACCOUNT dimension (Version 11.1.2.x). I am using a Oracle view to load metadata to this dimension. I have defined the sort order in the view and enabled SORT_ORDER_BY_INPUT. For the fresh load to the dimension, everything is working fine. But, when I move a member from one parent to another parent, and define it as the top member of new parent, it is missing its sort order.
    But it is working fine if you define it as the second, third...or last member under new parent. I have tried all the possible ways by flipping all the properties but unable to fix it.
    Please help me here to resolve this issue.
    Your help is greatly appreciated!!
    Thanks
    Edited by: user11965311 on Sep 20, 2011 7:07 PM

    To be honest I think you are best logging it with Oracle because it sounds like you are doing everything correctly so it could be a bug.
    Have you tested this on any previous versions of ODI or is it a new installation?
    If it does get logged with Oracle please keep me informed of the outcome as I would be interested to hear.
    Cheers

  • Browser window album sort order change?

    Hi,
    do you know if there's any way to change the sort order for albums on the browser window?
    I'd like to view the album list for each artist sorted by release date order (as in discography) rather than alphabetically.

    Colin,
    Change the View option to include Year then click on
    the column heading.
    that works on the main window, not in the browser window.
    No matter what column I click in the main song window, the browser windows remain alphabetically sorted.

  • EPMA 11.1.2.1 dimension build from FlatFile to EPMA to EssbaseASO using ODI, member sorting order issues

    We are building our EssbaseASO cube using FlatFiles which are pushed to EPMA via interface tables and then the EPMA Essbase app is deployed to Essbase, this entire job is done through a ODI interface/package. The problem I am facing is the Order in which members in EPMA appear, even though the FlatFile has the right sorting order, by the time the hierarchies arrive into the EPMA interface table the sort order is changed randomly.
    I am using the File to SQL control append IKM in ODI and some where on the way I saw a suggestion to add a new option to insert "ORDER BY" into the IKM. I successfully did this and it did change the sort order but even this is not the right order(order in which my flatfile has the dimensions).
    I can't understand why Oracle/ODI needs to randomize the rows without being asked to do so! Please let me know if anyone has faced this issue before and if they were able to resolve it.

    The EPMA interface tables have a SORTORDER column. Make sure this is populated with numeric values sequencing the order you want your members to appear in the EPMA hierarchies and when you import from the interface tables this order will be respected. Prior to this feature being introduced the workaround was to create a view referencing the interface tables imposing the required ORDER BY clause but this isn't required in 11.1.2.1 just use the SORTORDER column

  • Sort order issue in with Evaluate function ( Next Quarter measure)

    Hi All,
    I have report requirement where I have to show measures for a particular geography for previous, current and next quarters in a pivotal view.
    ---------------Previous Quarter| Current Quarter|     Next Quarter
    Geography               
    ABC|xx|xx|xx
    PQR|xx|xx|xx
    XYZ|xx|xx|xx
    Next quarter values are displayed for other geography like
    ABC value is shown for XYZ and XYZ value is shown for PQR
    I have derived measure for pervious quarter using Time Series Function > Ago function,
    However the problem is with next quarter. I used following Evaluate Function to derive measure for next quarter.
    EVALUATE ('LEAD(%1,1) over (order by %2)' AS DOUBLE PRECISION , X, Y)
    Here X = Measure and Y = Level (Quarter)
    X is delta of two other measures A and B.
    X = (A- B)
    Thanks,

    Hi user10300020,
    That's a fairly common problem with months that happens regardless of database source.
    In the logical layer of OBIEE you can specify the sort order on the month name column. Just double click on the month name column and look for the option to set sort order based on a different column. I typically sort the month name based on the month number.
    Give that a shot and tell me if it works.

  • Sort Order issue when exporting from DRM

    The sort order hierarchy (Parent/Child) in DRM is correct, and appears in the right order. When the hierarchy gets exported, some of the nodes are out of order in HFM.
    There are shared nodes in the hierarchy. There is a Custom Sort order that is set correctly for the hierarchy in DRM.There is also a Query that was created to export nodes that does not contain the word Shared.
    Ex
    DRM
    Parent 1
    Child 2700
    Child 2701
    Appears in HFM
    Parent 1
    Child 2701
    Child 2700
    The sort order is not correct in Smartview. Why would the nodes show correctly in DRM, but export out of order, and not show correctly in HFM?
    Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

    Can you evaluate the DRM export results with the Hiearchy structure, also make sure the Default Hierarchy Sort on the Hierarchy has a value assigned to it, whether it is core or custom based on node ID, DRM should export nodes as they appear in DRM.

  • Project Server 2010 TimeSheet line classification sorting order- Issue

    Hi,
    We have PS 2010 SP-2 environment , and having few time sheet custom line classifications in order to sort them I have prefixed my custom time-sheet line with numbers like 100, 110, 115 and it is perfectly sorted in Line Classification settings under server
    settings, please see below.
    But strangely when a user creates time sheet and click insert new row then "Add an existing task" modal dialogue box shows "Standard" OOTB line classifcation on top and all custom line classifications underneath it.
    Please check below
    Don't know why it is not considering sorting order defined under "Line Classifications" settings. Same configuartion used to  work fine in PS-2007. But dont know why its not working in 2010.
    May be some silly configuration I am missing or something serious here, seriously not able to make out why this is happening.
    Please let me know, Thanks much !!!
    Sachin Vashishth MCTS

    Hey Thanks Guillaume,
    That's what I want to confirm in context of 2010. Because same configuration used to work in our 2007 environment. So want to confirm its default behavior or I have missed something in configuration.
    Any other idea do you have, like putting some java-script code in modal dialogue box to get this sorting done or any other customization.
    As of now considering "javascript" but need some pointers to get start working on this.
    Thanks much !!!

  • IPhoto sharing - album sorting order?

    I share my entire iPhoto library using sharing in the iPhoto prefs.
    When I'm on my other mac, I can see all the shared albums, but they are sorted in a random order ?!?
    Not the same way I sorted them, not alphabetical and not by date?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    How can u identify which pics in iphoto are not jpeg?
    Create a smart album with the following criteria: File Name does not contain jpg.
    That will show you all non jpg files in your library.

  • IOS5 Playlist Sort Order Issue (not smart list just normal playlist)

    So i cant figure out why my music wont sort thwy way i wanted to in each of my playlist. Before IOS5 i can sort my songs in my playlist to what ever  i wanted and not it just stuck at oldest song added to newest song added.. i want it the other way around...
    What happen apple? it was fine in the last OS... am i missing something here.
    I would like the ability to sort my music any which way i want to!

    Ugh..  This is driving me crazy!  Yes, the adding of the rule "playlist is music" fixes this issue when you're syching an ipad or iphone, etc.  BUT, that very rule causes iTunes Match to fail!  So for any of my devices I have iTunes match enabled for...which is all of them now, my playlists are all jumbled.  Here's an example of how weird this issue is:
    On my iPad I can see my playlists.  When I click on the playlist the music order seems random.  I have to select a track to play.  Once I've done that, I can click on the picture of the album up at the top where it lists how far into the track you are, etc. and that changes the screen to a full sized picture of the album.  At the bottom of THIS screen is another playlist icon (bottom right of the screen).  If I tap THAT item, suddenly my playlist is listed CORRECTLY.  I can then select the first track of the playlist and tracks will play in the proper order after that.
    This is absolutely insane and so opposite of Apple's "it's simple" and "it just works" mantra that it's not even funny.  To play my smart playlists in order on my iPad or iphone with iTunes Match enabled, I have to select a playlist, get a track playing, change the display to show the album cover, tap the playlist icon at the bottom of THAT new display, and THEN I can select the first track in my playlist and everything is good.  Something needs to be done about this.  It's been an issue since iTunes Match was activated.  BTW, iTunes Match won't synch smart playlists with the "playlist is music" rule selected because it says that 'playlists that reference other playlists' cannot by synched.  It was crazy to have to add that rule to begin with but I could live with it.  Now, there's simply no apparent way to fix the issue.
