Changing Sort Order in Smart Album when Looking for Roll Name=Corruption

We've confirmed via testing and from new posters that changing the sort order in a Smart Album who's criteria is to look for a roll name will cause iPhoto to crash and then crash upon launch after that.
So to avoid corrupting your library do not change the sort order of a Smart Album designed to locate rolls.
The thread discussing this is:
IPhoto keeps on crashing, cannot use it
Rebuilding the library with iPhoto Library Manager recovered the library. However, I don't know if a rebuild via the Control+Option key will do the same.
G5 Dual Core 2GHz, 2G RAM, 22 Display, 250G HD, 200G FW HD, QT 7.0.4P   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Canon S400, i850 & LIDE 50, Epson R200, 2G Nano

Ha! I upgraded to iPhoto 6.0.3 and opened the dummy library I had created. (This was the library where the crash on launch kept happening because I had a smart folder looking for rolls and sorted by title or something else other than the default.)
Guess what, it opened just fine! 6.0.3 fixes the crash. Not sure how much it helps people who started new libraries, but at least others won't run into this.

  • How can I set up a smart album that looks for keywords?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm in the middle of a rethink on my image management and am wanting to setup smart albums that will search for and display images that have a certain keyword. When I create a new smart album to do this, I'm only given the ability to choose to search for rating and calendar criteria; the keywords and import session options are greyed out. My images have keywords assigned, so where do I go from here?
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    OK, a step forward. It seems that if I create a smart album it will only look for keywords in the project that it is contained in.
    Perhaps someone can help me then: I keep a collection of albums for each person that is featured in a photograph. These albums are stored outside of the projects that the images are stored in so I can have a collection of images that show person X from all the different shoots.
    What I want to do now is keyword each image with the person's name (as a keyword) and then have a Smart album that will pick out all of their photos from my entire library, not just a certain project. How can I do this?

  • How to change the order of the albums?

    how can i change the order of the albums from oldest to newest to a different order?

    First off I'll say that iPhoto for iOS and iPhoto on your Mac are different applications. They have similar features but the are different in many ways.
    On the iPad you cannot change the order of photo albums in iPhoto for iOS. You can change the order of albums in the Photo app but these changes will not come through in iPhoto for iOS. IPhoto for iOS will also rearrange photos within albums so that the order in iPhoto for iOS is different from the order in the Photos app. There's no way to change this.
    iPhoto on your Mac is a much more powerful application when it comes to organizing photos and albums.

  • Can I transfer my hand made album sequence (sort order) defined in element when I turn a local album into a mobile album used with IPAD. Or do I have to change the dates artificially?

    Can I transfer my hand made album sequence (sort order) defined in elemenst when I turn a local album into a mobile album used with IPAD. Or do I have to change the dates artificially?

    Andrew, I know I am extremely late to the party but I too use Grid View.  I had the same problem that you had but have found this to work for me.  I used it and it is still holding as my default sorting even after switching between the Artist page and Grid View.
    Once you are inside of the Artist page continue to click on the Album column until it shows Album by Artist/Year.
    That will give you each album sorted by the year instead of it randomly sorting it for you each time you leave an Artist's page and then back again.
    Hope this helps.

  • Change sort order on WF_NOTIFICATION(HISTORY) procedure - 11.5.10 Apps

    Is it possible to change the sort order of the lines in the Action History section that shows up on e-mail notifications?
    We are using Blanket Sales Agreements in Apps 11.5.10 CU1, including the delivered workflow approval notifications. My users are happy with the notifications except that they want the approval history table sorted in reverse so that the most recent action is at the top of the list.
    I have looked at the WF_NOTIFICATION procedure, but it's not just jumping out at me where to make this change, if possible. I'm also assuming that if I change this procedure that it will change for all notifications (PO, AP, etc.). Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
    Rhonda

    Hi,
    It is possible to change sort order on WF_NOTIFICATION(HISTORY).
    You can add an atribute to your WF Notifications (Messages) and add an "if" into WF_NOTIFICATION procedure to apply your sort routine just to that kind of notifications.
    Best regards,
    Luiz

  • When connecting to my wifi I get ! When looking for networks

    When connecting to my wifi I get ! When looking for networks
    I

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

  • Having trouble seeing all pix, when looking for something on ebay.

    When looking for an item on ebay, some of the pictures are blank. 
    when I open an item with a blank pix, the picture is there.

    What model laptop do you have?
    Have you tried using a different USB port?
    If you have a USB flash drive or external hard drive, does that work when connected to the same port?

  • Finder crashes when "looking for networks" - workaround that helps

    I've read through most of the messages about finder crashes, but what's going on in my case I haven't seen. As I have a work around, I thought I should post.
    If for whatever reason the wireless connection pauses or gets interrupted (for example, by closing the lid), the finder hangs in the process of "looking for networks."  Most of the time I can still pull up the dock -- the spinning beach ball only clicks in if I mouse over the top menu bar. Sometimes (but not always) I can quit open applications through the dock before I have to do a hard reset.
    My workaround is this: I turn wi-fi off before I close the lid. When I open the lid, I wait a short time -- 30 seconds, about -- and turn the wireless back on, and this way I can avoid the finder crashing.  If the wi-fi pauses for some other external reason, when "looking for networks" starts up, the finder will hang again.
    It's way past  time that Apple coughs up a permanent fix, but this might help somebody who's having the same problem.  And maybe somebody has a better workaround, in which case, I'd love to hear about it.

    1. Going into a folder on my external hard drive that contains the installer for divx for mac.
    Divx has been a source of problems with both Tiger & Leopard. See for example Mac OS X 10.5: Finder may not fully "load". If you have installed it, it is probably at least part of your problem.
    then i erased the whole thing, and used the Mac OS X 10.5 install DVD that came with my mom's iMac (still happens)
    This is not recommended. The install disks that come with specific Mac models do not necessarily install the same things or do all the error checks that the retail Leopard installer disk does. (It is also a violation of the software license to install it on another Mac.) If you want a trouble-free, supported installation of Leopard, use only the retail installer or a disk specifically intended for your exact Mac model.

  • I'm trying to order some photo albums from iphoto for chistmas gifts and there is a notification that keeps popping up telling me I need to send to a p.o. box, the mailing address IS a po box and it still won't let me order. What do I do?

    I've not seen this message but would think that it might say that you can not send to a PO Box - exactly what is the error message?

  • IPhone Wi-Fi sync stuck at "Looking for [computer name]"...

    Hello,
    For the longest time my iPhone 6 has not been able to sync with iTunes wirelessly, despite the fact that the phone clearly knows if iTunes is running or not. I'm running iOS 8.1 on my iPhone and iTunes 12.0.1 on OSX Yosemite 10.10.
    I have confirmed that the phone does know when iTunes is running on my Mac. When iTunes is running and I go to Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync on my phone, the "Sync Now" button is enabled, but when iTunes is not running the button is disabled out with a message saying "Sync will resume when "[computer name]" is available."
    When iTunes is running and I tap "Sync Now" from my phone, the button changes to "Cancel Sync", and a message below says "Looking for [computer name]...". That lasts for about a minute, and then the screen reverts back to its previous state (with the "Sync Now" button). The actual syncing never occurs.
    I've checked the firewall settings on my Mac to make sure iTunes is set to allow incoming connections, and it looks like everything's configured properly.
    Has anyone run into this issue before? I'd greatly appreciate any help!
    Thanks!
    Ryan

    Well, it happens often and, as to me, I don't think it's an issue of Apple, OS or whatever else, rather than a Wi-Fi nowadays technology itself: let's be hones — even though it is popular it is not that good. But, getting back to your question — my solution (the one which works for me) is easy and quite — no hassle with password, nothing...
    All you need is to renew lease of your device over the wi-fi network. Go to the Wi-Fi settings, click the blue arrow to get to the settings of the current network and click the renew lease button; launch iTunes — it's there your iDevice.
    Personally, I've got two of them — and from time to time I'm renewing the lease — that solves mentioned issue.
    With the Kindest Regard,
    Yours Aunt Deena
