Can't Sort Photo Folders in ITunes 9

I upgraded my Laptop to Win7 (Clean Install) and I-Tunes 9 and everything seemed fine. De-authorized and reauthorized computer and re-synced music, podcasts, movies and photos from same locations to my ATV without any problems.
Using ITunes I have photos synced from a folder that has 75 or so folders arranged by month or trip. My problem is that I need to drag these folders up and down to put them in the proper viewing order that worked fine UNTIL I did the upgrades. Now when I try to drag them up or down the sync list nothing happens.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Just a couple of general points that may help in future.
Unless a file has the Podcast flag set, audio files imported into iTunes will be treated as Music (apart from m4b audiobooks) and video files as Movies. You need to manually change the Media Kind after import.
As well as "Media Kind" there is another property inside iTunes called "Video Kind" which indicates if a file is a Movie, TV Show or Music Video. Current builds of iTunes *do not* alter this value in tandem with a change in Media Kind. This could potentially cause problems with smart playlists and perhaps even remote access to the library. The Video Kind property can be set from script.
Given that Media Kind is an internal property of the iTunes database there is no good reason that it can't be applied to any file whether locked or not, but I suspect iTunes first checks for write permissions before making changes so permissions may be an issue whenever you are unable to change the Media Kind.
Unless your selected audiobook files are all in .m4b format iTunes will report any selection of two or more audiobook files as being Music. Ignore it. It can't handle mixed property values either, e.g. a mix of compilation and non-compilation tracks will always show as *Part of a compilation: No.*
When working with single audiobook files you cannot change the status of the *Remember playback position* and *Skip when shuffling* flags. Simply select more than one file to adjust.

  • Creating Photo folders in itunes?

    how can I create foto folders in itunes so that I do not have all fotos in one folder on my ipad?

    I'm pretty sure that's haw it works on a pc. On a Mac I organize myq photos in iPhoto. When syncing my iPad, under photos, I see a list of all the albums I have in iPhoto and I can choose which albums I want synced to my iPad.
    I'll assume it works the same way on your pc. Select the main photo folder under photos in iTunes on your Pf. I'm expecting you will then see a listof the folders you created so you can choose which ones will sync.

    When you are in Album view in the Photos app - tap the edit button in the upper right corner - tap the X in the corner of the album to delete it.

  • How can I sort photos by file name in Photos?

    New Photos seems to be very limiting, even compared to iPhoto.  How can I sort photos by filename?  Many photos that worked in iPhoto, can't be viewed in Photos.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Titles don't use the filename any longer, but if you must have them you might be interested in Léonie's script here.

  • How can I sort photos within an event? When I follow the Help instructions, I can sort manually in Photo format, but when I return to Event format, the original order is restored.

    How can I sort photos within an event? When I follow the Help instructions, I can sort manually in Photo format, but when I return to Event format, the original order is restored.

    Events are organisation for those who can't really be bothered. They are automatic - based entirely on Date and Time the camera records the photos as taken.
    You can move photos between Events, you can Merge Events, you can Rename them and sort them in various ways except one: You cannot manually sort in an Event as Events are all automated.
    If you want to manually sort in an Event then you've outgrown Events as an organising tool. Now it's time to look at albums (Where you can manually sort) which are much more flexible than Events as an organising tool.

    How can i sort photos by date taken, not date created?

    I'd like this feature as well. I tend to browse my photos by date in Aperture, but on ios thay always appear in some bizzare random order.
    I've tried several workarounds but with no luck. As metadata is present, surely this should be simple...

    iPhoto:  How can I sort photos within an event.  I can't figure out how to activate the Manual Sort button.

    Only albums can be sorted manually. Events can only be sorted automatically according to one of the predefined settings "Date, Keywords, Title, Rating".
    If you need a manual sort order, selectaall photos in the event and create an album: File > New Album

  • Photo Folders within iTunes

    I have 15 photo folders which are displayed within the Photo tab of iTunes for the iPhone. For some reason, the number at the right of each folder is the same. Why is that since they are all different?

    If she has Vista, she can run iTunes 11 which is needed for iOS 7.
    We are unable to delete/recognize photo FOLDERS from her iPhone 4 on my computer within iTunes. The only photos I can pull off her phone are being recognized by the windows system as a camera plug-in from her Camera Roll on the iPhone.
    Do you want to delete the photos on the camera or copy them back to the computer?

  • Can't find photo button on itunes

    I want to add photos from my PC to my iphone but don't seem to be able to do it, looked online but don't seem to have/can't find a photos tab on itunes. Help!

    YES! And I am wasting so much time trying to research it. I read that control s will make a sidebar menu reappear, that was nice and familiar. Except the device itself is no longer in the sidebar. I can't find a sync button, and I can't find a way to delete and add apps to the device that is connected. The new iTunes is all about selling us more stuff, but not taking care of us!

  • Can't get photos on to itunes

    somehow i can't get photo files to appear on the itunes library. i've tried changing the photo format but still doesn't work. can someone help??

    You will have to go to settings when your iPod is connected and then go to Pictures. Here you call up the folder where you have your pictures on the computer. Then after that you update your iPod again and the pictures should then transfer to your iPod.

  • After Itunes update I can't select photo-folders to synchronize

    I updated Itunes to version 11.1.1 (11) on my Imac.
    When I try to synchronize my Iphone 5 or Ipad there is an error 1140.
    I think there is a problem with Iphoto, because you can't also not select anymore a specific folder in Iphoto to synchronize.
    When you don't synchronize photo's, there is no problem.
    Who has a solution?

    iTunes will silently ignore any request to add files that it can't get access to. It is hard to know for certain but it seems that some requests go via the current user account and some via the system account. Might be worth checking that both your account and system have full access to all the files you are trying to connect, and that they are not hidden.
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
    If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownneship from an account with administror privileges.
