Contact List sort order

In previous Skype version, when adding a contact via searching a list is provided, which was sortable by name, country ..etc   It was easy then to sort by country for example to find the name in a specific country .. BUT new version does not offer this feature .. you have to browse through the displayed search results pag by page which is very tedious to close in your search ... PLEASE RETURN THE SORTABLE LIST RESULT for contact search

If you received  reply, please share it.  I'd like to be able to sort contacts by their last name and don't know how to do that.  Do you?

  • Address book - mailing list - sorting order of names

    Generally difficult to edit mailing lists - alter order of names in the list - add email/names in middle of list - drop names from list - copy parts of list to another list - how can you edit a mailing list?

    1 at a time? I don't think so.
    Here is a bonus lesson in selecting multiple items.
    select item 1. Press control+a to select all
    select item1. move up or down several items and hold the shift key while clicking item 2. This selects items 1 and 2 and all items in between.
    hold the control key while clicking random items. This selects any item that is clicked on.
    hold the control key while clicking a selected item. This will deselect that item.
    You cannot drag and drop from a list though. This will only work in the address book itself.
    A contact must exist in the address book that the list is created in to be added to that list.
    You can move or copy contact between address books using drag and drop.
    Drag and drop to move. Hold the control key before dropping to copy. You will see a + sign appear to indicate a copy.
    There operations are universal and not a Thunderbird thing. It has been a part of computer shortcuts since the early 90's.

  • CCM Display List Sort Order

    Hello All,
    when the CCM search screen is brought into the SRM the items are displayed without any default sort order. is there a way to configure a specific order when the list is first displayed? i know that clicking on the column will enable sorting, but i would like to know if there is any setting that can predetermine the sort order before the list is displayed in SRM.
    thx in advance for your answers.

    Greg: there is no Customizing setting you can control the sort order with. I feel your pain :). Short of modifying the system, the only way you may be able to achieve the desired functionality is BAdI /CCM/CSE_ENRICHMENT.

  • Query result list sort order in the Service Manager Portal (2012).

    Hi there,
    I have a setup a user prompt for a request offering in which the values are based on a query results list.  When the user prompt is displayed in the portal the order of the items presented based on my query results list is in reverse
    alphabetical order (Z to A) instead of traditional A to Z.  I can clicked the column header to toggle the sort order, however having to do this is slightly annoying.
    My query results list is based on returning the Department field of a specific criteria of template AD user accounts (which are imported into the CMDB via the AD Connector).
    Where and how is the sort order defined?
    Thanks
    Bryan

    Hi Bryan,
    After a quick test I can see the query results is in a descending order based on the first display column of the query results configuration. In the Request offering wizard I don't see an option for sorting. I don't think it is possible to configure this
    out of the box. 
    But maybe it is possible from a Self Service Portal rendering point of view. Maybe there is a key for it in the settings.xml just like the maximum of query results:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/servicemanager/archive/2011/11/08/advanced-query-results-customization-for-request-offerings.aspx
    If this is possible I'm also curious to know how! :)

  • Mail Message list sort order for Applescript in ML

    Hi All,
    I recently upgraded from SL to ML. I'm having a few issues with an applescript i use to flag/unflag emails for later handling.
    Basically, the script does the following:
    - get the message list from one of the inboxes/smartboxes. These are ordered by time and grouped by thread.
    - compare one message with the next one
    - if some criterias are equal (thread ID, subject, ...) then the second email is unflagged
    - repeat until end of list.
    It was working fine in SL, as a result, i only had the first email of threads with a flag, so the others could be forgotten.
    In ML, it looks like even though the emails are displayed in a specific order (date/thread), using
    messages of first message viewer
    does not fetch the messages in the same order, so matching cannot happen.
    Is this the expected behavior in ML ? Is there anyway to have the list of messaged sorted as displayed ?
    Thanks
    jm

    I found a workaround, though there must be something neater.
    I added this before my script
    tell application "System Events"
              tell process "Mail"
                        tell menu bar 1
                                  tell menu bar item "View"
                                            tell menu "View"
                                                      tell menu item "Sort By"
                                                                tell menu "Sort By"
                                                                          click menu item "Subject"
                                                                end tell
                                                      end tell
                                            end tell
                                  end tell
                        end tell
              end tell
    end tell
    then the same except "Date" instead of "Subject".
    My script does what i want now.

  • LR Library Module - Folder List sort order

    As you can see above, the folders in the list are in apparently random order.  I cannot find any way to specify the sort sequence of this list.
    Suggestions?

    Try the following:
    Right-click one of these folders and click on "Add Parent folder".
    It will do that and then list the sub-folders of the parent-folder in alphabetical order.
    No other option than alphabetical order exists, it's just the same as in your OS.

  • ADDRESS BOOK: Contacts listing/viewing order

    ever since i synched my iphone my contacts on my iMac list correctly by last name. but now, some contacts are Last, First, and others are First, Last.
    anyone else experience this?
    i would prefer all to be First, Last.

    Try selecting all of your contacts, then open Address Book's card menu. I don't have Tiger in front of me at the moment, but I think the menu item you need is called Reset First/Last Name to Default.
    There's an application-wide preference in the general pref pane for the name display order. And there's a per-card setting for this as well, which would override the application-wide preference. The menu items in the Card menu can change this setting on a per-card basis.

  • TS4002 how do I get contact list in alpha order?

    I moved an old contact list over, when I edit the iPhone list does not alphabetize.  How do I fix it?

    The contacts app on your phone should automatically alphabitize the list, either by first or last name depending on your setting in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Sort Order.  If it isn't doing this, some things you can try include:
    Change the Sort Order setting then change it back
    Force close the Contacts app: double-tap the home button, locate Contacts, swipe up on the image above the app icon to close it, tap the home button again
    Reset your phone: hold the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release

    Yes, In your address book on your mac you can choose to sort by first name.

  • How to put contact list in first name order

    how to put contact list in first name order

    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Contacts > Sort Order/Display Order 'First, Last'

  • First name and last name order in contact list

    Actually, my contact list is displayed with the last name before the first name, but everything is fine in Address Book settings (I choosed "First name, Last name" option), and I checked that first name and last name has not been reversed for some reasons between two fields, the first name is right in place, as is the last name.
    So changing this is AddressBook has no effect.
    I tried disabling Chax, without success.
    It could be possible this problem occured when I enabled Microsoft Exchange address book synchronization, (iSync reported 500+ changes in AB database, I did it anyway and noticed no problems in data after synchronization (I still have a backup :-))
    One more thing , the displayed name in the iChat menu extra is correct.
    So, what could possibly change this behavior I did not already check ?

    Hi Yann,
    If you add details to the Address card in iChat as you add a Buddy then you need the first set of instructions I posted.
    You nee this menu in iChat http://www.flickr.com/photos/90943061@N00/135575605/
    In the second section of this menu you can sort the list.
    <hr>
    Ahhh. I see what you mean.
    iChat does in fact always display First Name, Last Name as you say.
    Adding a Buddy with the names in the reverse order to display as you want in iChat your Address book gets messed up as it is not consistent with those contacts that are not iChat Buddies.
    The only work around I can see is to change all the Address Book entries to match a reverse entry in iChat and then use the Address Book option to display Last Name, First name to show them the 'correct' Fist name, Last name and have them in Last name, First name in iChat.

  • Update a list item based sort order of created by column value

    HI
    using powershell script how to sort a list column before update a list  item.
    here i created a document library and uploaded some documents and update ProcessNo column based sort order of created column
    value.
    Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -EA SilentlyContinue
    $webURL = "http://tspmcwfe:91" $listName = "Courts"
    Get the SPWeb object and save it to a variable
    $web = Get-SPWeb $webURL
    $list = $web.Lists[$listName]

    Go through all items
    foreach($item in $items)
    $item["ProcessNo"] = 1
    $item.Update()
    $web.Dispose()

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to sort the list items order before updating items using PowerShell.
    I suggest you can use the Sort-Object command to sort the list items.
    Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

  • 160G Classic: sort order of contacts

    Yep,
    I am just starting to discover the features of my brand new 160G Classic. I have noticed, that I can choose between first name or last name as the sort order for contacts. But it looks like the contacts are always displayed as firstname and than lastname.
    What sense does it make if I sort all the contacts in order of their lastname, but it's their firstname which got displayed first?
    Any idea's out there? Did I miss anything? Can anybody confirm that behaviour?
    Thx!

    I tried to generated one vcf file for each contact rather than having one vcf file for all contacts. This helped me to work around some addressbook issues with my 4G iPod. But the Problem with my new Classic remains the same.
    The list of contacts is still showing "Arthur Dent" rather than "Dent, Arthur" eventhough I have selected "sort in order of last name". This is ridiculous as it prevents efficient browseing of all contacts.
    Any ideas, comments, hints or even solutions out there?

  • How to Control the Sorting Order of iPhone Contacts from Outlook?

    In a series of editing steps we've loaded ca. 1,900 personal and business contacts from Outlook into a 1st gen iPhone with 2.0.1 software on it. To our surprise we found that while most of the entries were listed and sorted by company, certain entries were listed and sorted by the person's name. It looked random and there didn't seem to be any way to control it on the iPhone.
    While troubleshooting the problem we synced up the iPhone with an empty Address Book on a MacBook Pro and found that the sort order flag was indeed set differently on these entries. When we changed the sorting flag of a contact in the Mac's Address Book to "Company" it also changed on the iPhone after the next sync.
    Problem: In our business environment it is impossible to switch to Macs for contact administration. We need to do it from Outlook. This is one of several features needed for the adoption of iPhones.
    Question: Is there a way to control this flag on the individual iPhone contact entries from Outlook Contacts?

    Well, I think we figured it out.
    Outlook doesn't offer a sorting flag on person or company name. Instead it uses a separate "File As" string. The problem with our contacts was that this "File As" string was frequently edited to be something else than exactly the personal or company name, e.g. it was set to an abbreviated company name. Once we set the "File As" to any of the defaults offered, i.e. person or company name, the sorting flag in iPhone was properly set through the synchronization.
    Obviously, the application logic compares the content of these fields in Outlook and decides how to set the flag. If it can't find the company name in "File As" it defaults to person.
    This was an expensive holdup for us. It cost us 2 man days to figure it out. Is there any place where such application logic is described?
