Exporting PST to Portfolio in Chronological Order?

Here's the situation: Windows 7, Outlook 2010 with an Adobe PDF plugin, Acrobat X. Trying to convert a PST file to a PDF Portfolio, but have the emails go in chronological order (this is for a legal document production, so the emails have to go from oldest to newest). What is happening, is it is defaulting to reverse chronological order and the plugin has a bug that disables the ability to edit the order in Acrobat. Can't seem to find a way to change that default, despite manually reordering the emails before exporting. Any help is greatly appreciated.

yeah well thanks for your dismissive reply
but I don't agree -
when you initially browse by "Artist" on the iPod,
then 'drill down', you are presented with a list of that
Artist's albums.
Maybe I'm an anal aspergerated mentalist, but on my shelves
at home, I generally have my CDs in alphabetical order
by artist, and then within that, in release order.
It's logical and what I'm used to seeing.
When I go into my Kraftwerk stash on the iPod,
I don't wanna see "AUTOBAHN" first in the list cos it begins
with "A", I wanna see Kraftwerk, Kraftwerk 2, Ralf und Florian, then Autobahn [substitute your own favourite artists here]
Moreover, never mind what I think, iTunes also thinks it's a useful way to display things,
since it already lets you do that - so why can't the iPod
do it too? it's all in the metadata...

  • How to export photos with titles in chronological order. Checking box for title and keyword doesn't seem to work

    I want to export a group of JPEG photos including titles in the order in which they were taken.  Checking the box to include titles and key words seems not to work.

    You can not
    exporting creates files - files have no order - the order is set by the program you use to view them - for example in the finder you can view files by the date created, date modified, size, alpha, etc
    So to control the order when viewing in the finder you must have an attribute that the finder can sort on set - the most common way to export photos in a specific order is to make an album in iphoto in the order you want and then export the album using the sequential naming option of the export command - then view them in the finder using a alpha sort - Exporting From iPhoto
    However since you want to retain your existing title that will not work for you

  • Exports not in chronological order: How to export in CreateDate order.

    Hopefully this is an easy one but I can't figure it out. I have an event with about 850 pictures that were taken over a week's time. When originally imported into iPhoto they spanned several events because iPhoto by default creates one event per day. I subsequently merged all the events, and indeed the photos are in chronological order in iPhoto.
    When I export to a folder on the desktop (JPEG High quality, Full size) and then examine that folder, +the photos are no longer in the order taken.+ The first day's photos seem to be in the middle, for example. The photos were renamed with ascending number values, but, for example, image 086 appears about halfway down, behind, say, 487.
    It appears that the EXIF Create Date is not the criterion used to sort exported images(?) How can I get iPhoto to export this way? Who wants to look at a disk full of vacation images that are completely out of order. It seems to me to be the logical, default way to export a series of images.
    Help! Thank you!

    But when you export from iPhoto, it is iPhoto that names the files for export.
    Correct.
    If you export them at the Event level, it doesn't rename them in exif chronological order correctly
    Renaming in exif chroological order? Is that a feature? iPhoto does not rename files at all unless you tell it to. If you don't tell it to then it will export the files with the same name as they imported with.
    However, if you open the event and select all the photos and export as sequentially numbered files, it will number them correctly based on exif data.
    No it won't. It will export them as sequentially numbered files based on the sort you were using at the time of export, as OT points out. The sequential numbering has nothing to do with the exif data and everything to so with the sort order you have chosen in the Event or Album. Choose a different sort order in the Event and you'll get a different result.

  • How can i organise my home movie video clips in iMovie in chronological order

    Hello,
    Can anyone help please? 
    I have masses of home movies that were taken on VHS, transferred them onto DVDs, then loaded these and put them onto imovies.  Perfect so far! 
    But now stuck, as they have been imported in reverse order into the Event Library, and I'd like them to be show in chronological order with the earliest taken showing up first, so I can use them for other projects easily without a huge amount of working out what happened, when!
    Many thanks,

    If you import from a digital camera or camcorder, iMovie will automatically store your events in date order.
    However, if you imported clips from an analog camcorder, like VHS or 8MM or Hi8, iMovie does not have any metadata to work with.
    In this case, there are two ways to add back this metadata.
    The simplest way is to right click on your Event clip and select Adjust Clip Date And Time. Do this for all clips in the event.
    The other way is to name your clips before importing to imovie in this format:
    clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.ext
    where hh is hours in 24 hour time, and ext is the current file extension. If you name your clips this way, and then import to iMovie through FILE/IMPORT MOVIE then the clips will sort into the proper year.
    Sometimes, when you import from a VHS tape ( or DVD of a VHS tape), you get one long clip for several events.
    I have found I get good results by chopping up this clip into shorter clips corresponding to real world events (like birthday party, for example) so that the whole clip has the same date.
    To do this I use a free app called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5.
    I first will find the long clip in the Finder. From iMovie, right-click on the long clip and select Reveal in Finder)
    Then drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip.
    Move the playhead to the beginning of the first short clip you want to make, and click I for in point. Then move the playhead to the end of the first short clip you want to make, and press O for outpoint. (i and o do not have to be capitalized).  Then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME in Apple Intermediate Codec. Name it as I mentioned above. (clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.ext)
    Then repeat for all additional shorter clips you need from that long clip.

  • Putting pdf pages in chronological order

    I have several documents in one pdf folder that are dated.  I would like to put these documents in chronological order by date, how do I do that?  I also got a message that some of the content is not editable because it was scanned.  So, if I export this to a Word document, how do I put the pages in chronological order?
    Thank you,
    Slspencer

    Use your OS's file browser/explorer to sort the files (in the folder) by date.
    Rename each. Top down put a numeric prefix in place.
    000-filename
    001-filename
    nnn-filename
    Open Acrobat and use the "Combine" feature to combine the files into a single PDF.
    An option available with the Combine feature is to have Bookmarks used. Tick this choice.
    The single, new PDF is created. Save it.
    Open this PDF file's Bookmark pane. There'll be a bookmark for each of the files.
    The order of Bookmarks and the order of PDF pages reflects the order you set when you renamed the source files (a date sort).
    Note that you could manually position the order of files to be combined in the Combine dialog.
    I find it easier and quicker to add the prefix to the source files.
    Using Acrobat XI you'd process the new, single PDF through OCR.
    As some of the PDF pages already have renderable text they cannot undergo OCR.
    Acrobat will alert you of this when it comes to the first of such pages.
    Just tick the box in the lower left. This tells Acrobat to ignore any upcoming pages that cannot be OCRd and to keep on truck'n to OCR the page that hold the scanned image.
    Now, use Acrobat XI to export the the PDF to the Word file you want.
    (File :: Save As Other :: <make the desired choice> )
    Do not expect a 1:1 export. You have a diverse collection of source files.
    While you might get 1:1 if ALL the PDFs combined were well-formed Tagged PDF (compliant with 14.8 of ISO 32000-1 & ISO 14289-1) you don't have that.
    So --- To be expected — cleanup of the content in the Word file.
    Be well...

  • View iCal's day and week view in reverse chronological order

    Greetings iCalers,
    When I think about day/week calendars, with the Y-axis being times of the day as in iCal's day/week views (e.g. "3:00 AM", and "5:00 PM" are in the leftmost column), I think about times building up to midnight from the bottom—i.e. the day starts at 12:00 AM on the bottom, with 1:00 AM above that, and the day ends with 11:59 PM on the top. I've learned that this intuition is atypical, and all calendaring systems I've come across work in the reverse direction, in line with the majority of people's intuitions.
    I'm wondering if there's a way to get iCal to display in the reverse-chronological order. I suspect there isn't, and I've never seen a terminal command or apple script for it, but I'm hoping there is. If anyone know and could post it here, that would be great!
    Thanks!
    -Scott

    It's cool, I figured out a solution: get over it and stop worrying about trivial issues to the point of excessive fussiness.

  • How do I make email searches display in chronological order?

    There must be something obvious I am missing here, I am hoping someone can tell me what I may be doing wrong.
    I have several packages that just shipped via UPS over the past week. I get quite a few UPS packages and the tracking alerts are over several email accounts.
    I go to my email to search for UPS so I can get all the tracking numbers, but as I've noticed since iOS7 was installed, my search results come back completely in a random looking order.  There is no coherence to the dates.  The first one is from March, then they jump back to 2011, then one of my recent ones is shown as Wednesday, then back to 2012, etc.  There are hundreds.  Even when I specify an email box instead of searching all email the same thing happens - all seemingly in random order. 
    Why can't I just see them in chronological order as I used to? Do I need to specify something different in search, or change some setting?
    Thanks for  any help! This has been annoying for awhile but today it's gone from annoying to really bothersome because this is such a basic function and I just had to spend ten minutes going through my email manually since at least it's chronological - I would have been there all day using the search function.  I know I must be missing something. 

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • How to return a string in chronological order?

    I have a string called schedule, for example:
    schedule = "^14%Paul's house?Group Meeting\n^9%Nutty Professor's Office?Office Hours\n^12%MegaBits?Lunch"
    After breaking it up using StringTokenizer, how do I return it into chronological order?
    Return the schedule for each day of the week as a String with the appointments listed in chronological order, starting with those for the first day of the week and ending with those for the last day of the week.
    The String should have the following format
    Sunday:
    ^14%Paul's house?Group Meeting
    Monday:
    ^9%Nutty Professor's Office?Office Hours
    Tuesday:
    ^12%MegaBits?Lunch
    Wednesday:
    xxx
    Thursday:
    xxx
    Friday:
    xxx
    Saturday:
    xxx
    xxx is the String representation of the schedule for each day. There should be no newline after the last schedule.
    Note: if there are no appointments scheduled for a certain day, then that day should not be included in the String. (For example, if there are no appointments scheduled on Tuesday then:
    Tuesday:
    xxx
    should not be included.)

    Well, then,
    i would assume you need to keep 7 variables, that hold the 7 values of the days,
    then append the values together in the natural order using +

  • Album Art in Chronological order

    Ok so I finally got a Lion OS (whilst kicking and screaming) and thus involuntarily downgraded to iTunes 11. It looks nice but the more I use it the more I realize how impossible it is to customize or at least have a similar organization to my iTunes 10.
    One thing I can't seem to do at all that is driving me nuts is I'd like to click on a playlist or an artist and see the albums and cover art in chronological order. List view is the closest it gets, my playlist is in the same order, but there isn't a way to view the album art anymore -- it should be a category at the top that can be added -- but it's not. Grid view looks nice but Apple decided I needed to always view these in alphabetical order -- no compromises -- not sure who decided that but they should not be on the UX team for iTunes anymore. Artist view is really annoying -- doesn't show details, breaks the tracklisting to two columns...
    Seriously. All I want is to view my albums with a picture in the order I put them in.

    Well, it's also more difficult to search this forum than it used to be. I couldnt find anything while searching, but this result poped up at the top of "More Like This" after I posted.

  • How do I get PDF forms to export to excel in the desired order?

    How do I get PDF forms to export to excel in the desired order?
    Here is what I have done:
    As taken from another post:
    Choose Forms > Manage Form Data > Merge Data Files Into Spreadsheet.
    In the Export Data From Multiple Forms dialog box, click Add Files.
    In the Select file Containing Form Data dialog box, select a file format option in File Of Type option (Acrobat Form Data Files or All Files). Then locate the form files that you want to merge into the spreadsheet, select them, and click Select.
    Repeat the previous step to add form data files that are in other locations, as needed.
    Click Export. Then select a folder and filename for the spreadsheet, and click Save.
    In the Export Progress dialog box, click either View File Now to open the spreadsheet file or Close Dialog to return to Acrobat."
         The problem now is that Adobe populates Excel in ABC order of the form, based off of the name of each box in the form. For example, if my form has three text boxes, named A, B, and C, then Adobe will export to Excel as such:
    Row 1 =         A                              B                              C
    Row 2 =         data entered             data entered              data entered
    where 'data entered' is whatever the user typed into the form boxes. But what if I want a different order for exporting, and I don't want to rename my text boxes? What if I want:
    Row 1 =         C                              B                              A
    Row 2 =         data entered             data entered              data entered   ?
    Is there a way to do this in acrobat x or xi?
    Thanks

    I don't have time to test right now, but there was a change with Acrobat 10 where it exports according to the tab order, which you may have to set manually, so give that a shot. Otherwise, you'll have to process the file after it's exported if you need the fields in a particular order. This wouldn't be too difficult to do with something like a VBS or JS script in Windows.

  • My photos are out of chronological order after the os 5 upgrade.   How can I get them back in order?

    My photos are out of chronological order after the os 5 upgrade.   How can I get them back in order?
    If its not possible, how do I go back to the old  os?

    I had tried that several times with no luck.  Late last night I was finally able to get through  to the Verizon technical support who then called in Apple technical support.  It took 1 1/2 hours for them to figure it out and guide me through a fix.  So here's the deal .......... I use Yahoo mail and had left the "contacts" button in the on position.  Apparently Yahoo likes to go into your contacts and gather information and can leave it in shambles.  My advice is, go to settings, then mail, contacts, calendars.  Select any and all of your email accounts and go in and turn off their access to your information.  Leave it on for Icloud but none of the others.

  • HT4362 How do you get your photos from iPhoto to display in chronological order?

    Anyone know on the new apple TV how to get your pictures in screensaver mode to appear in chronological order? Currently it's all working but it jumps around randomly.

    Boo! I guess my 1st Gen Apple TV will remain my main TV device. Thanks for the reply.

  • When saving, how do I change the default order of my files in the pop up window which is currently reverse chronologic order?

    When I want to save a file on my computer, Firefox opens a window for me to designate a location. Up until a few weeks ago, my files were listed in chronological order by file type. Now they're listed in reverse chronological order which is not convenient. This happens every time and I can't find where to change the setting.

    Did you check the right-click context menu ?
    You can also try to switch to list mode and click the Name column header to switch the direction.

  • 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.

  • Display Albums in Chronological Order in iPod

    Hi,
    I was wondering why albums appear in alphabetical order by deafault in iPod and there's no way to organize them by year to display them in chronological order.
    Perhaps there is a way to do so and I haven't figured it out yet (besides adding the year to the album name, i.e. naming 'A Hard Day's Night' -> '1964 A Hard Day's Night')?
    Is there another way to bypass or alter iPod's method of organizing album lists?
    I know there have been several discussions on the subject already but I haven't found any solution yet and I'm sure others are looking for one as well.
    Thanks in advance,
