How can I get my Windows Lightroom photos to show in the correct order on Apple TV?

I use Lightroom on Windows 7 and iTunes as well as a current generation Apple TV.  When I export a set of photos in a specific order from Lightroom, the files are named in the proper sequence, but when the photos are displayed in the Apple TV viewer, they do not show in filename sequence.  They apparently show in the date the photos were taken by my camera.  I have a mix of scanned images and photos in my desired sequence, so the Apple TV is next to useless in showing them as a slideshow on my large screen TV.
My investigation led me to believe that Apple TV was showing the photos in the date taken, so I instructed Lightroom to omit that data on the exported files, and the date taken shows as missing on Windows, but in the Apple TV they still show in the same sequence.
Help!!

Me again.  I'm pretty sure I found a solution to my problem.  I had changed the order of my slides more than once, and it turned out that the "wrong" sequence that Apple TV was using for my slides was the original sequence, not the latest sequence.  I found that when I deleted the Apple TV Photo Cache folder and database, it got rebuilt by iTunes and the slide sequence was correct.  I have no reason why the order did not automatically get updated.  I'm on the rails now!

  • How can I get my greyed out photos to show up permanently in iPhoto.

    I recently had to have my HD reformatted.   Am now in process of reinstalling my 3rd party software.    So far so good.   Some of my photos are missing both on my computer and on my time machine.     They appear in my "photos" when I scroll past them, but vanish when I pass them by.  Is there a way I can get them to show up permanently.  I tried to unhide them but it made no difference.

  • How can I get new windows to open On Top Of the current window, not Behind the current window?

    Regarding the Options checkbox to "When I open a link in a new page, switch to it..." I already have that box checked, but still windows are opening behind my current window.

    Hello MichaelDMiller60, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • How can I get my thunderbird address book to show up in alphabetical order by surname?

    When entering my email addresses in the address book they do not show up in alphabetical order by surname. What do I do to get it to do so?

    I have this same problem, but my Address Book doesn't stay sorted. I have to sort it on "Email" address first, then sort it on "Email". Then, and only then, can I find an email address. I have to do this EVERY time I send an email. After I return to Thunderbird, the email addresses are jumbled again.

  • How can I get more of my persona to show at the top of the display screen?

    Before downloading the newest Firefox, my persona at the top of the display screen showed at least 1/2 of the firefox. Now it's only the ears. How do I show more of it? Stupid question, I know, but it's bugging me.

    You can add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.

    How can i get rid of those infuriating banners just beneath the Search window?

    Change your home page to a non-firefox one. If you want google as your home page, do the following:<br><br>
    #Go to google.com<br><br>
    #Click the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | General.<br><br>
    #Make sure it says "Show My Home Page" in the dropdown menu at the top and then click the button called "Use Current Pages".<br><br>
    I can't think what Mozilla is trying to achieve by displaying that childish junk.

  • How can I get a Windows Vista 32 bit version of Photoshop, please?

    How can I get a Windows Vista 32 bit version of Photoshop, please?

    Hi Kevinhannan,
    No current Photoshop supports this configuration.
    Photoshop CS5 was the last version of Photoshop to support Windows Vista.
    Photoshop Elements 12 was the last version of Photoshop Elements to support Vista as well.
    We no longer offer Photoshop CS5 or Elements 12.
    You might look at Amazon to see if you can get either product listed above. Just be careful when purchasing, make sure you know who you're buying from!
    Regards,
    Pete

  • HT4098 I have a subscription to The Telegraph which I purchased before changing my email and apple ID.  How can I get iTunes to transfer this purchase and put it under my new apple ID?

    have a subscription to The Telegraph which I purchased before changing my email and apple ID.  How can I get iTunes to change it to current ID

    Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
    Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.

  • We have a corporate iPad in our auto showroom to show guests how to use features on their vehicles. Someone locked it with their account. It was not an employee. How can I get in? I did a restore of the software already?

    We have a corporate iPad in our auto showroom to show guests how to use features on their vehicles. Someone locked it with their account. It was not an employee. How can I get in? I did a restore of the software already?

    Gather up the proof that the dealership is the original purchaser of the iPad,
    and take the iPad & that proof to a physical Apple store for possible assistance.
    It is highly suggested that you make a genius bar appointment to avoid delay
    at the store:
    Make a Genius Bar Reservation

    If no Apple store close by, get the information mentioned above and contact
    Apple Contact Us for assistance.
    Once the problem is resolved, you may wish it use Guided Access to limit
    what customers can do with the iPad.

    How can you get your iPod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to the Internet Connection and you don't want to reset it.

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
