Artists out of order when I sync.

Everytime I sync my iPod Touch 3g it messes with the sort order of the artists in my music (ex: some "G" artists will be in the "H" section, and so on). The only way I've been able to fix this is by restoring the iPod to factory settings. I don't want to do this everytime I sync to iTunes. Any suggestions on how to stop this from happening?

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

Why are my pics out of folder order when I sync to my computer

Can someone please explain why when I sync my iphone 4s the pics on my home computer folder are correct and in order but once
I sync to my phone they are scrambled?

Thumbnails always look better because they are smaller and smaller always improves definition. How does the video look when played directly from the camera, say through a TV? I suspect that the video itself is out of focus and you couldn't notice until you blew up the picture.a guess.

Clips are out of order when drug to Timeline

I was working with final cut pro, showing a friend how to use it and ran into a problem that has never happened when I've used it on my machine. We did log and capture, and captured the video. then I went Mark-> DV Start/Stop Detect. From there I selected the first segment and the last segment and drug them to the timeline. once in the time line they were all out of order. Usually they are placed in the time line 1 through 80 or however many there are, one after another. There is nothing else in the time line. When I drug them this time they would be arranged in all different orders. Anyone have any idea whats going on with this?
Thanks in advance.
TY

It goes by the Track # field, as seen in on a list in iTunes. So, make sure the Track # field is correctly entered for each song when you review the album on a list in iTunes. Also, make sure the Album field is entered identically for all the songs on the album.
You can edit those fields by doing a Get Info on a song, and going to the Info windows's Info tab,

Task Line Numbers Move Out of Order When Adding Resource to a Task

I am using MS Project 2013 and we are in the process of setting up Project Server 2013.
When I add a resource to a task and close the summary task and re-open the task is moved to the bottom of that section and the line numbers are out of order.
For example line number 382 is the third task under the summary task. When I add a resource, hide the subtasks and then expand the subtasks line number 382 is now at the bottom after line 389. The line numbers then go 381, 383, 384... until 389
then 382 is after 389.
I want to keep the tasks in sequential order.
Has anyone seen this problem before? I have done extensive research online and cannot seem to find any one with a similar issue.
Thank you! :)

Hi Dnbree,
Do you have any filters applied to the view in Project Pro? Try to change view and check if you experience the same issue.
Also check if the view uses a sorting in the view tab of the ribbon, such as sort by resources.
Hope this helps.

Photos randomly out of order when published to my gallery!

Photos are in the right order in iPhoto on my mac (Library, Albums, Web), but when the album is published to my gallery the photos are completely and randomly out of order.
The name of each photo is just the number given by the camera, and iPhoto had correctly imported the folder of photos in chronological order from a hard disk.
Also, there are videos which sometimes work in the gallery, but for some it says quicktime cannot play the video, and sometimes the video is UPSIDE DOWN!
How can I get the correct order (and functioning videos)?
Thanks

In the gallery on the web, I see no pattern to the random order.
Aha! In iPhoto (back on my mac), I now see that the order from the import at the beginning ("events") is not the same as the original folder (where all files were in order of file number). I see the problem there - iPhoto imports the photos in the correct order until it encounters a video. The videos (.mov) are mostly in the wrong place, although I found one in the right place (just to make it impossible to say always, grr).
Then when the mostly in order (apart from videos out of order) "album" is published to the web gallery, photos and videos are completely out of order.
I had never tried including videos in photo albums in iPhoto, I think because in previous versions this was impossible. So I had published one video at a time to its own "album" on the gallery. Maybe iPhoto is mixed up by these videos in with photos. Strange though, because it gives details about how many photos and how many videos in the album, and seems to act like this would be possible.
So, resetting the order in iPhoto does not allow me to republish maintaining this order. In the publishing process, somehow all are randomly mixed up. The only way I can see to reorder everything in the gallery is to move them all manually there in the gallery when connected to my account at me.com
I had hoped to find a better solution, because this would take a long time to do.

Out of order when put /take packages in/from a blocking queue

Hello all:
I put multiple packages in a blocking queue in one thread, and take them out from another thread. The in sequence is 1-2-3, the out sequence becomes 3-2-1. This is NOT a FILO pattern, there is no pattern: it could be 3-1-2, etc.
The question is: can out-of-order issue even take place when put()/take() operations impose on a blocking queue? If it's not possible, which I believe, I'll look elsewhere for the cause. Otherwise, why and how to fix it.
Thanks,
John

Please provide an [url http://sscce.org]SSCCE that demonstrates this.
Unless you're using a PriorityQueue or some other specialized implementation, it should be a FIFO order. Check the docs for the implementation you're using.

Option key is out of order when I want to select a boot disk

It goes by the Track # field, as seen in on a list in iTunes. So, make sure the Track # field is correctly entered for each song when you review the album on a list in iTunes. Also, make sure the Album field is entered identically for all the songs on the album.

Smart Playlist is out of order when put on iPod

Hi, I'd like help getting my smart playlist in order. The criteria for the playlist is to be above 3 star rating, but I can't seem to tell what order the playlist is in; sometimes it seems like it's artist name, but then it sort of randomly changes. It looks normal in iTunes but when I'm using the iPod by itself the order is messed up. I don't use the sync function and don't want to. There was a way to get it in order on my old iPod, but I can't seem to remember how becuase it was stolen and I didn't have one for a while... thanks for the help.

I know it can be done, someone please help...

Songs by artist out of order

Ok, so I've been using a program for months to manage my ID3 tags on my music.
I like my ipod a lot, I use it everywhere I go, but recently after downloading 6 albums of a certain artist, I used the ID3 tag manager (like always.. never had a problem) to remove ALL album names, track numbers, EVERYTHING except the artist name (all the same) and genre (all the same for each artist).
I keep no album names or identification, I don't like going by albums, I just keep it simple and go by song titles. However, this time the songs are being somewhat ordered around into a specific order unknown to me, there will be some songs in alphabetical order here, then some random songs starting over the alphabet (same artist, mind you) and it will continue over and over starting with new albums I'm guessing.
I do not want this, and I do not know how to make it force alphabetizing it into the normal fashion by song title. This happens for no other artist (actually, it happens on a couple others, as this has been an issue for some time on particular artists). I need to know what I need to do to get this fixed.
also, if there is any way to remove the process of selecting Artist > Artist Name > ALL > Song name, I do not want to select my album as ALL every time I select an artist, because I don't even use that feature by ID3 tag, I completely remove it for every single piece of media I have on my ipod. My friend's ipod does not make you select ALL as the album if she doesn't have any albums listed, and I would like to see if this will work for my new 5th gen ipod as well.
Thanks for help!

Ok, I will restate what I've said throughout the entire thread:
I use an ID3 tag manager to mass-manage lots of music that I bring in via CDs and other locations. I handle a lot of music, and I only keep track of artists and song names, no albums or anything else except the genre to keep it sortof noted.
My ID3 tags for each and every song on my computer consists of ONLY the Artist name and genre, not a single thing else. No album name, no titles, nothing.
I have songs from multiple albums per artist, but they are mixed because they are UNTAGGED as being on a certain album. I personally have no idea what album each song may be on, and don't care to know.
My music on my ipod is organizing itself by an album title (ex: Album A songs will display before Album B songs) although there is NO INDICATION whatsoever that any song is on a particular album and is not told to be sorted in that manner.
The reason I didn't supply a screenshot is because it looks appropriately alphabetized in my itunes management, but this does not translate when uploading it to my ipod. Certain artists will have songs from X album appear above other songs for no reason, there is no reason it should put a song titled (for example): "Zanzibar" over a song titled "Float", but because the song titled "Zanzibar" is on an album starting with the letter A and "Float" on an album starting with the letter F, it will display ABOVE "Float" even though it is not being told to order itself by album title, and has no reason behind being placed there, as there is no information in the Album field on any of the songs that I own.
Do you see the predicament? I am aware it doesn't sound right, and that's why I've come here to get a resolution for it, it simply does not make since. I use an ID3 tag manager because when you load a CD onto your computer, it will keep Track numbers, Album names, etc. I remove this information and insert blank fields so that the music is SOLELY ORDERED by the FILENAME of the song (which happens to be the song title only, the ID3 "title" field is left blank as well).
If this helps clarify it for you, please forgive any discrepancies in my previous posts. I've tried to convey the same message in each post, but somehow you must've been lost.
So now that it's all stated clearly; My problem is this: I want my songs by ARTIST X to be alphabetized SOLELY on the FILENAME, which I have supplied the song title in that position. I have NO information in ID3 tags other than the ARTIST and GENRE. Nothing else, no title, album, anything.
Thanks for any help!

Pages out of order when booklet printing on both sides

When booklet printing on the HP Laserjet Pro 200 color m251nw using manual duplexing the pages come out in the wrong order. If I create a document that has 4 pages only it prints pages 4 and 1 on the first side and 2 and 3 on the second as it is supposed to. If i add four more pages it no longer works properly - in that case it prints pages 8 and 1 on one side then 4 and 5 on the second side of that sheet and then 6 and 3 on the first side of the second sheet and pages 2 and 7 on the second side of the second sheet so when it is folded in half the page sequence becomes 1,4, 3, 2, 7, 6, 5, 8. I routinely do this on another hp printer and a xerox printer with no issue. What settings should i be using on this model?

Hi , I see that you are having issues manually duplexing. I would be happy to help you. Here is the two-sided printing instructions provided from the manual on page 27. LASERJET PRO 200 COLOR.You may have to uninstall and reinstall the printer software, it might have gotten corrupted. I would suggest to download a Universal Print Driver to see if that will help resolve this issue.HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 (32-bit). If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Tracks out of order when playing album through Remote Web Access

When you choose an album (CD if you want) in Remote Web Access and play it, the tracks don't play in the original order. You can drag and drop to reorder them, but you have to know the right order. Is there a way to fix this or is this just a
failing of the Remote Web Access software? Thanks in advance.

I'm having the same issue. Ever find a solution for this?

Itunes keeps shuffling the songs out of order when i burn a CD

I have no idea why this is happening. The shuffle is turned off. I just installed the new version with the same results. Thanks in advance for any help.

It is a weird bug that shows up unpredictably.
The following workaround sometimes help: start a new playlist and add the same songs to it. Make sure the little triangle is above the number column, and get the songs into the right order. Then do the burn from the new playlist.
