Advanced sorting question.

I downloaded several CD's from the same band that form a Trilogy. I want to sort them so that they will all play in sequence even though they are different CD's with different names and release dates. I can't figure out how to do it.

Hello twyounce
Create a playlist and sort them in the order that you want. Go to the Drop down menu File > New > Playlist and then add the tracks in the order that you want. You can also reorganize them however you want without the need to have a to change any track information.

Sorting question over state...

Hi there,
Anyone know where you amend the over state / hover of an option in a sorting question ???
Been looking in the object style manager but can't find it in there...
Thanks in advance...

You are talking about the partially transparent grey bar that appears when hovering over an answer in the Sequence type of questions. There is no style that can be customized AFAIK. It is not even changing with the included themes. Same is valid for the connecting lines in matching questions that are always black, color cannot be changed for them neither. It is a pity, would recommend you enter a feature request to be able to customize the color of both the hover bar and those lines.

Is it possible to increase/decrease the number of sort columns in Advanced Sort dialog?

I am using Panel Collection and a Table. When I visit View->Sort->Advanced, I get Advanced Sort dialog with 3 column choices. Is there any setting exists which will allow you to increase/decrease number of columns presented for sorting?

Hi,
this cannot be changed and always is 3

Playlist name sorting question

First off, sorry if this has been discussed before, I couldn't find it anywhere.
My question is, is there any way to sort my playlists via a "Sort Name" option or something so that a playlist starting with 'the' (for example, "The Letter Black") will be sorted, in the case of the example, under 'L' instead of 'T'? Thanks in advance.
Blessings.

Sorry, there are no controls about the sort order of playlists. They go folders, smart playlists, and regular playlists, with a lexical sort in each.
However, you don't need to create playlists for individual artists and albums. You can easily get to them by the column browser. To turn it on, click View > Column Browser > Show. Then type "lett" in the search bar and you will be right there.

Address book field sort question

Does anyone know how I can set upp my City field so I can sort by city? When I call customers for appointments I would like to sort by city so I can group all my calls together. Presently I group it in with Last name which does not work well if I want to do a mailing.
Note to Palm; Why wouldn't Palm have set City field seperately so you can sort by city?

McAfee will warn you about anything sometimes lol. I've downloaded about 10 different programs and no viruses yet, so you shouldn't need worry. There should be some sort of advanced search tool on that site. You can also try using google. I do apologize the device does not come with that search method natively. I hope you find what you are looking for though through add ons.
Let me know if you have any further questions and have a nice day.

Last sorting question Itunes!?

Hi there,
I haven't really found the answer i was looking for in this support community. Hopefully someone has the right answer for me. Sorry for the image being Dutch, but i will explain in English.
The thing i want to do is:
1. Being able to see a various artists album in one group (1 coverflow). This i know how to do, on the left side of the image you'll see.
Naam = name or title if you like
Artiest = artist
Album-artiest = album artist (by keeping this in format of Various Artists, this keeps the album ''together'' as one cover)
Album = Album
On the right side
Naamsortering = name sorting (obvious blank, since there are multiple titles in this album, otherwise it sorts no more on the artist which i prefer instead of title order)
Artiestsortering = Artistsort (here i copied the artistname, so in the artist list it sort there on alfabetical order) Doesn't work btw see part 2 of my question.
Albumartiest-sortering = (here again i copied the artistname, so when you view a album it sorts the tracks on artist order, i like that!)
Albumsortering = albumsort (this is for sorting the album between other albums on alfabetical order)
So i think i got this end covered. Now for part two.
2. Search on my Apple TV within artist for example: ''Ultravox'' (see picture above).
The problem i'm having here is that this artist ''Ultravox'' couldn't be found by the search query of my Apple TV. Why is that? I stated that the Artist is named ''Ultravox'', but never the less it can't be found unless i change the album-artist field into ''Ultravox''. But this looses the keeping the album ''together'' as one cover.
So could anyone tell me if its possible to maintain the various artist album and still be able to search for an artist in this album on a Apple tv?
Already many thanks in advance for your time and help

Ah, that's the same fix as I describe in One album, still too many covers. I've no idea why iTunes does this one either. Funnily enough it seems to happen sometimes when I rename an existing album which is properly grouped so I know the values must be consistent because I've only just changed them, and did so all at the same time.

LocalConnection Advanced use question

Does anybody know if it is actually possible to have two
flash movies talk to each other when one is in an iframe at a
different domain and one is in the page containing the iframe?
I spent quite a bit of time yesterday going through varoius
permutaions on naming the connections. The closest I got to
anythign was when I got my sender movie in Flash to successfully
talk to the reciever movie in the browser, that was accomplished
having an underscore in front fo the connection name in sender and
reciever. But when the reciever swf is in a page containing an
iframe with the sender swf nothing appears to happen.
Since I got flash player (and an executable version of the
sender) to commicate with the browser based reciever I figure this
should be possible. But i can't seem to figure out what I'm missing
in the browser based versions.
The intent of this exercise is to allow technology I am
helping to delop to be included in a page using an iframe while
providing feedback to listener movie in the site the iframe is
embedded in. From there we would provide an api for interacting
with the listener movie so that sites wishing to embed our
technology could handle certain events. I realize of course that
interframe communication between frames at different domains is a
violation of the same domain rule at the heart of most browser
security. So, I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't possible. And
yet, I could communicate between flash player and the listener so I
still wonder at the possibility.
Does anybody know if what I'm attempting is even possible?
And if so, any clues as to what may be the problem? If anybody
chooses to help with the problem or innovate a work around I would
be happy to share the source files I've been playing with, which
are simple bare bones swfs.

"> One more question along this topic of advanced usage
> of LocalConnections ... is there a reccomended method
> of dealing with multiple windows being open with the
> same reciever movie so that the sender movies aren't all
> sending back to the originally opened movie?
What about sending an arbitrary id as one of the parameters
with your
message? All movies listen, but when a message comes, each
movie checks to
see if the id param matches a correlating id of its own. This
could be a
variable stored in the root of each listening movie. (Am I
movie "A"? Yes?
Okay, I'll follow these instructions.)"
The problem with the arbitrary id is that I have to send it
somewhere, and I need to know the name of the connection to send it
to, but each connection name must be unique. That is why if you
open a new window messaging goes to the first window, the
connection command in the second window will fail because the name
will aready be taken in window one. And the other movies won't know
that and will all send to the named connection which is still in
window one.
The connect function will fail if a connection already
exist.s So, on the one hand all I have to have is a loop that keeps
trying to connect until it finds a free connection. The problem I
am thinking about is having two movies in the same window, one in
the page displayed, and one in an iframe, as I set up on that demo
page. I'll want the one in the iframe to communicate with the one
in the outer page for validation purposes. If all there is is one
window then that's fine. But if sombody were to hit Ctrl+N in IE
they would get a new browser window with the same page. The problem
is how to make it so that the two movies in each window know to
only communicate with each other in only that window?
My thought is that I can use the incremental connection id
technique in each movie and figure that if the increment is
firstMovie_2 in one movie then it should communicate with
otherMovie_2. What I'm worried about in this scenario though is
what happens if the user is caffienated and hits Ctrl+N five times?
Will the two movies increment correctly for each browser window? Or
will there end up a couple windows with a firstMovie_3 and
secondMovie_2 because things didn't load in a controlled sort of
way?
I think the incremental technique would be fine for if a
window closed because that would free the connection id and the
loop would always start at 0, so if you had five windows opened and
closed the first one and opened a new one, the new window would use
the ids with the _0 increment.
Anyway, its helping me to write this stuff out. I'm going to
implement the incremental id thing and I'll report my findings.
As to looking deep into the technotes and docs. That
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/fplayer8_security_05.html
article was great for the table it has in the middle of it which
outlines what is needed for the various ways you try to connect
movies.
My only other reccomendation is the help docs and Excedrin
since it has both Acetometaphin AND caffeine and both are useful
for trudging through the fine points of the flash docs ;).

Library sorting question

I hate that all of my albums are split up when sorted by genre . I have tried 'Album artist' and 'Part of a compilation.'
All I ask for is how can I sort by Genre, Album, then Track and not Genre, artist, then album?

Hi, Nick.
Have you activated the iTunes Browser display panel?
If not go to the iTunes View menu > Show Browser option.
Then go to the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced tab > General sub-tab and select Show genre when browsing.
Now you can select a genre in the Browser and sort the contents of your iTunes Library for that genre by clicking on the Album column heading.
Is that what you're looking for?

Sorting question xsl

hi,
I am sorting a list by category, but now I know that one of the categories should go to the bottom of the list when displayed.
I tried concatenating some value to it so it would go to the bottom, but it's not working correctly. Any other ideas to achieve this?

Collections.sort question

Hi,
This is my question. I have the following classes
class A {
     int num = 1;
class B extends A implements Comparable<B>{
   int count = 0;
   public int compareTo(B b) {
        return count - b.getCount;
public void setCount(int count) {
        this.count = count;
public int getCount() {
         return count;
}After i put the a couple of the B classes (after setting count) in a LinkedList of type A, i get a problem trying to sort them. The compiler gives me a variable Collections error on the Collections.sort
Any ideas on how to solve this would be appreciated.
Thanks

Are you talking about this A* algorithm? (I've never heard of it before.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-star_search_algorithm
The code you have with the "instanceof" test might work. Not sure what the goal is, or how the algorithm works (I didn't read the above link in detail), so I can't say for sure whether it will "work" for what you are doing. Once you sort the "B" objects, what do you need to do with that sublist (i.e., with the bList in your code)?
I've never used generics, so I don't know much about them. Is it possible to make "A" Comparable, giving a dummy implementation to compareTo (i.e., maybe even just make it always return '0' [all values are equal]), and then have "B" implement Comparable such that B's compareTo will override A's version? I don't know if it is possible (or even desirable)--just a thought.

Sql sorting question

Hello,
I have a table "XXDUMMY" with a column "F1".
Right now, When I do a "select * from XXDUMMY", I get the following...
F1
4444089014
DGV3142004
5JN430151I
7JN430151I
9JN430151I
JN430151ID
I want to order by (sort) the results so that I get rows which start with an Alphabet first and then the numeric ones (Ascending). So the expected output should be...
F1
DGV3142004
JN430151ID
4444089014
5JN430151I
7JN430151I
9JN430151I
Thanks in advance!

Guide Sorting Question

I just switched to FIOS and couldn't find an answer to this question.
I noticed that I can select all of the Action movies or Comedies, etc on a particular day, but it doesn't show the time they are showing. I'd like to be able to sort by a theme at the current time and later. Is this possible?
Thanks

Hi,
There is no real good way to do what you want to do. You can go to menu> search> interest and that will give you shows coming on in the future. A great way to search is by using your PC and going to www.verizon.com/fiostvcentral and you can do all sorts of searches in there.
Thanks,

Sorting questions; albums together within genres?

Hi!
I have some questions concerning the way iTunes sorts my Library.
I'd like it to sort the classical section on composer, instead of artist. My library is sorted on Genre primary, and perhaps it's impossible to sort only one genre on Genre-Composer-Album . If so, I'll accept that.
However, this next one should be possible in some way:
How do I get iTunes to keep tha different albums sorted together in Soundtrack genre? For instance, the Buffy Ultimate Album keeps getting mixed up with Lock Stock and Two smoking barrells album, despite that I've checked "part of a collection" and entered specific CD track numbers for every one of the tracks. I even tried entering "Buffy ultimate soundtrack" into the Grouping field. What does that one do if not keep them together?
Help please...

How do I get iTunes to keep tha different albums sorted together in Soundtrack genre?
I would really like to know the same thing!!!! I have a lot of movies and B'Way soundtracks that I would like to peruse by album title. It seems the ipod only lets me browse by song and I agree, they all get jumbled together.
I am now in the process of dragging them all into a soundtracks playlist, which is a little better because at least the songs stay in the right order. I would love to be able to drag the album title into the playlist and then go onto the next song list screen from there.
I am going to suggest it on the feedback page.
I hope someone can shed some light on what can be done about this.

Advanced Security question

I hope I'm asking this question right. Do any of you know if Advanced Security supports IOS module 12.4 13 on a 2811?

Hi,
For your first question about exception list: If Windows Firewall is blocking a program and you want to allow that program to communicate through the firewall, you can usually do that by selecting the program in the list of allowed programs (also called
the exceptions list) in Windows Firewall.
For the second question, that means Firewall allow your Skype to communicate through Firewall.
You can add items manually, or just choose following settings after installing or configuring first open network app:

Able to advance past question with wrong answer

The following applies to a multiple choice question in Captivate 3.0.1 Build 589. You are able to advance through a question even if you have selected the wrong answer by doing the following:
Answer a question incorrectly. A box saying "Try Again" pops up.
Press the previous button on the Captivate navigation bar to go to the previous slide.
Press the next button on the Captivate navigation bar to advance to the question slide. The incorrect answer is still selected.
Press the next button on the Captivate navigation bar while the incorrect answer is still selected.
Captivate advances, even though you have not answered the question correctly.
This is a major issue for me for two reasons. A) It allows learners to advance without demonstrating that they learned what we are trying to teach them, and B) It actually misinforms learners by letting them advance with the wrong answer selected, so they may actually believe that what they answered is correct.
Does anyone else have this problem? Anyone have any ideas how I can fix it?
Thanks very much for your help,
Marc

Marc,
Do you know what wrong answer options you have selected? If you do not want the user to advance when they select a wrong answer, you can make sure they do not. On the question slides of interest, go to Edit Question. Select Options. Under "If wrong answer" section, select Infinite attempts. Now the user will not be able to advance until he/she gets the answer correct. The only side note on this is the user will get the Incorrect Answer message only one time. After that there are no response message until the correct answer is chosen. Hope this helps.
