Albums in alphabetical order
is it possible to organize the mobileme albums in alphabetical order in iPhoto?
No, not automatically. You an move them manually and then republish and that should rearrange the order online.
Unfortunately we can't sort the MMe gallery albums like we can regular iPhoto albums.

I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order. The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane. I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this? Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you
I don't have iPhoto on my iPad, so I can't help with that, but you must have looked at advice for a Mac computer? Maybe browse the iPhoto for iOS forum?

I've tried everything I can think of to get my Iphone 4S to play albums like an Ipod does. All it ever does is play the songs but not the albums in alphabetical order. I used to think I was reasonably intelligent until I butted heads with this phone.
Yes i've tried all of that. I've turned it all the way on and off and erased all of my music and put it back on and nothing works. And with the breaking up CDs and putting into compilation categories i have already fixed all of that stuff. It's fine it just doesn't show up in the list of artists. I can find the album in the songs category and the albums category it's just it doesn't show tha name of the artist. All of the other albums that i downloaded before i updated my itunes to th most recent update are fine. It's just the two that i downloaded afterwards. Thanks for trying though.

How to arrange albums in alphabetical order?
iTunes was bad enough before; I had to work hard to get my music sorted on it. Now the updated programme is utterly dreadful. Albums are not listed alphabetically any more, and I can't see the individual pieces of music within an album. Can someone tell me how to get albums listed alphabetically, for a start?
Thank you for bringing this up and for the useful info - I have found the updated iTunes incredibly muddling. Why, if they were going to change it, didn't they improve it instead of make it less useable?
I have over 4000 'songs' and most are classical, and I, too, spent years cataloguing them with composer name, conductor, orchestra, etc. so that iTunes could sort them in a way that was useful to me and easy to find. Now, the grid with albums is not in any particular order at all - how do you find something like that?
What I find to be the biggest problem of all in the update: you can no longer search for a particular 'song' by a word in title, album title, composer/artist, etc. just by typing it in the search box and searching all of your tracks - that list is no longer there. As far as I can make out, you can only search through particular playlists. If anyone has any information about this, I would be so grateful! - Thanks.
(p.s. - I know that this section is iTunes for Windows, but I have a Mac and I have not found the answer to my question anywhere) -
Sorting Albums in alphabetic order on iPad
I set up a set of Albums in iPhotos on my iMac. Later I added a new album and it went to the bottom of the list of albums on the left side of screen. I physically dragged that last album up among the other albums to put it in alpha order. All well and good.
Problem is when I sync my iPad, that last album doses not appear in alpha order
; it stays at bottom of group.
Please help me put this and future albums in alpha order. ThanksMy iPad 2 and iPhone 4 are on iOS 6.0.1 (was on iTunes 10.7, recently updated to 11) and most of my smart lists are sorted as in iTunes. The ones that don't seem to be sorted correctly are those which are limited in size by number of songs (e.g. "Limit to 25 songs"). Playlists that are limited by capacity (e.g. "Limit to 500 MB") seem to have the same sort order as in iTunes.
I'm not sure if this matches your conditions, but if you have not done so already then try adding either of the criteria:
"Playlist is Music" (which is the general Music category, which can serve as a playlist name), or
"Media Kind is Music"
See if either of those help you, and be sure to re-save the playlist's sort order in iTunes before syncing your iPad. -

Added songs go in alphabetical order
Hi everyone,
When I add playlists, albums, songs from my external hardrive to Itunes it is in the order I want. But then I synch the album to my iphone and my iphone adds the songs in alphabetical order and I cant move the songs around like when in a playlist. And I want the order intended. Does anyone know how I can rectify this?
Thanks

However, on all my playlists, Pala Tute appears in the middle of the album, in alphabetical order, between My Companera and Raise the Knowledge.
which is why I brought it up...
Do all the tracks of this album have track numbers? If not, an alphabetical sort by track name is the "correct" iTunes behaviour. Sorting any view in iTunes as *Album, Album by Artist* or *Album by Year* should put the tracks of an album in sequential track order, ascending or decending depending on whether or not the little black triangle in the column heading is pointing up or down. If this view does not give the correct sequence in iTunes, or the track order is wrong on an iPod, then look for problems of consistency with values, esp. capitisation in the album, album artist, artist, sort album, sort album artist, sort artist fields or the disc X of Y labeling.
If these are mp3 files check that they only have a single ID3v2.3 tag. iTunes sometimes does funny things with files that have multiple tags (e.g. both v1.x & v2.x tags) - displaying information from one version of the tag, but editing (or perhaps even sorting?) using another.

How can I stop itunes arranging and playing album tracks alphabetically?
I am obviously an absolute half-wit, but when I import albums into itunes it arranges the tracks alphabetically. I want them to play in the order that they are on the album.
Does anyone know how I can make this happen?
17" powerbook Mac OS X (10.3.9)after you open itunes click the library icon in the source field to your left.
click on edit in the menu bar of itunes,
click view options .
place a check mark in the box marked track number.
now there should be a column heading that says "Track#" click that heading.
your library is now sorted by track number but all the first tracks of every album are first, if the last song on the album are first click the triangle in the track # column again this will reverse the order.
next click the Album column heading you will now have the albums in alphabetical order with original track order in the library.
just remember sort by track# first then by Album.
hope this helps.

Photos for iOS: How can i sort all of my albums automatically in alphabetical order
Hey there,
first off, why isn't there a a community for the new Photos app?
Anyway, here is my problem:
How can i sort my albums on the new Photos app on iOS?
I think it's not possible at the moment.
I am using the iCloud Photo library and uploadet all of my 15.000 photos from the last 15 years.
And because of that, i now have many many albums on Photos now.
Overall i love the new app and i love the iCloud Photo library, but i cannot sort my albums on the iOS app automatically in alphabetical order.
I can sort albums manual, but who wants that, when you have so many of them???
I have Photos on my Mac too and there i am able to do sort them in alphabetical order. But it is not adopted to iOS or the iCloud Web-App.
Because of that, i have a complete picture chaos on my iPhone and when i am looking for this one pic in that one album it takes me forever to find it.
So please Apple, fix this and we all can live happily ever after!
Thank you!Moments in Photo are the new Events. T
here's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When the library was first migrated there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events are represented by an album in the folder. To open the sidebar if it's not open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window showing all of the albums.
The downside to this simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title while viewed in the Folder in the main window or in the sidebar. But they can be sorted manually.
Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html. -
My itunes library has automatically started to list my songs alphabetically. I do not want this. How do I change it so that when albums come up, the songs are listed in the order of the imported album, NOT alphabetically.
For the missing Artists on your iPod, make sure their tracks in iTunes are not marked as "Part of a compilation" in iTunes. You can do this by highlighting the track, right->clicking on them and choosing "Get Info" from the shortcut menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Info tab and make sure there is NO tick mark next to this option in the lower right hand corner. Lastly, sync the updated changes to your iPod.

Display artists in alphabetical order and albums in chronological order.
I have my iTunes library set to display artists in alphabetical order and albums in chronological order. This is the sorting option preferred by every person I've ever spoken to about it. The touble is nobody I've ever spoken to can tell me how to get my device (4S64, 5.1.1) to follow suit. iTunes on my phone insists on listing albums alphabetically. Since I (we) already know all the letters of the alphabet and in which order they occur this kind of sorting is of no benefit. Somebody please put me (us) out of our misery and reveal whichever secret soft switch must be flipped to make this happen. Also, if possible, I would rather do the alphabetical "Artist" sorting by last name rather than first but I have not seen an option for that either.
Thank you in advance.There is no secret soft switch for Album by Artist by Year on iOS.
If you want your artists sorted by last name first then edit the corresponding sort values.

Basically I've got a Volkswagen Passat which allows me to play an MP3 player through the radio system. I also own a iPod Nano (6th Generation) which I'm hoping to use in my car. Have just tried it now and it seems to just want to play my songs in alphabetical order instead of each album in order. Is this something I need to change on my iPod or in my car ?
Hi wisdoms2,
It sounds like the settings may be set to play the same song over and over. Check out the chart on page 21 of this user guide and see if that is what is causing the issue:

How do you sort photo albums in date order instead of alphabetic order?
My photo albums used to be date sorted but after selecting Sort albums, they are now in alphabetic order. How do I undo that, please?

Dear Grumpy
this is strictly a user to user forum and is specifically NOT a place to contact Apple - griping at the volenteer users here does no one any good at all
Have you made the request - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback?

I am sorry that I ran afoul of the user guidelines, I'll remove the rant if I can. I certainly did not intend my gripe to target the helpful responder. And yes, I did provide the feedback to Apple. I'm just used to such feedback going into a "black hole". Which this almost certainly does because this problem has existed for years (I Googled for an answer first.) However, it should be noted that company's tend to respond to feedback that is very public if they want to keep a good name in the business. The private feedback through the program is like a quiet whisper, only the two parties involved know about it, so there is no real incentive for prompt action.
