How do I change the sort order in the file picker?

Hi there,
I've recently hit a problem with the Save and Open dialogs in Mavericks. Some how I have changed the sort order within the Column View so that it sorts by modified date and no longer by name. Unfortunately I can't work out how that happened or how to get it back so that it sorts by Name.
Please could anyone help?

Normally, you click on this thing (shown below) and select the sorting preference.

  • Why does iPhoto change the sort order of the photos in my album when I attempt to share via Photo Stream?

    Why does iPhoto change the sort order of the photos in my album when I attempt to share via Photo Stream?

    Did anyone find a good way to sort the shared albums better, so that the ones you share with can better find their way around.
    You can arrange them manually in an album, select all and use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date to menu option and check the box to add a set interval between photos. That will let the photos be sorted by date and be in the order you want:

  • How do I change the sorting order of the pictures I want to take from an album to a photo book?

    I have an album that contains over 300 pictures.  I put them in the order I want them to appear in the photo book I want to make.  When I select the entire content and choose Create Book, all the pictures appear on the right hand side of the book in two long columns, like they're supposed to.  Problem is, they're not in the same order as they were in the album and I have to go searching for each picture because they're all over the place.  I get the feeling I'm missing something very simple, yet crucial.  Any help would be much appreciated.  BTW, I use iPhoto 9.1.3 on an iMac running 10.6.7.

    1) Open Discoverer Admin Edition.
    2) DO NOT open any Business Areas.
    3) Create a new Business Area with any old table in it (ex: SCOTT.EMP or a custom folder SELECT 'test' col1 FROM sys.dual)
    4) Navigate to File -> Open.
    5) Open up ONE Business Area (The one you want to appear first)
    6) Navigate to File -> Open
    7) Open up the next Business Area (The one you want to appear second) ....Repeat for all Business Areas..... 8) Select all of your REAL Business Areas and export (exclude the dummy Business Area)
    9) Take a DB export of the EUL owner as a backup.
    (you need to log into SQL*Plus or another SQL tool as the SQL owner to do this - take an export of all the tables of the schema)
    10) Delete ALL Business Areas.
    11) Import the .eex file.
    You might be able to skip Step 9 if your database gets backed up anyway or if you trust the EUL export and import.

  • Changing Search sort order for Simplified Chinese

    We're generating a Simplified Chinese WebHelp system using Robohelp 10 and we need to change the sort order in the Search results so that it follows the pinyin order instead of "Y, Z, M, T" (Referring to 仪,准,美,通). Is there a way to do this?

    I sort of found a workaround, but it may lead to other problems, so use it at your own risk.
    It also requires a bit of work.
    The idea is to use the sort order for Japanese by specifying the following in the IX reference page.
    Symbols[\ ];数字[0];A;B;C;D;E;F;G;H;I;J;K;L;M;N;O;P;Q;R;S;T;U;V;W;X;Y;Z;あ;い;う;え;お;か;き;く;け;こ;さ;し;す;せ;そ ;た;ち;つ;て;と;な;に;ぬ;ね;の;は;ひ;ふ;へ;ほ;ま;み;む;め;も;や;ゆ;よ;ら;り;る;れ;ろ;わ;ん;[ ]
    <$symbols><$numerics><$alphabetics><$kana>
    Then, you need to capitalize the first letter in the bracket used for sorting for every index entry.
    Example:
    Instead of
    画面[hua4mian4]
    specify
    画面[Hua4mian4]
    Now, I'm wondering if there is a way to do a search and replace on all index entries to capitalize the first letter...

  • How do you change the sort order of mp3 songs?

    I have transfered MP3 files from my PC to itunes & iPod and created my own compilation albums for some of my favourite artists. However I would like to change the order of the songs but I dont know how to do this. I cant see what itunes or the ipod is using to determine the sort order!
    thanks
    Tom

    tinny's advice will work if you gave them an album name and they are actually listed in your library as an album. (Under Get Info, just tell it track 1 of 10, 2 of 10, etc.)
    IF you created a playlist for the album, click on the column for the track numbers and then click and drag the songs into the order you want.

  • How to change the sort order of complex table in drop down

    Hi Team,
    I have a complex table which is working but the sort order i want in a different way. How can i change?

    Gupta,
    My screen field definitions are as follows:
    1. Location
    2. Partner
    --In my previous reply, the first screen shot is without any parent index. So it is giving all values in alphabetical order only.
    --After that I created parent index for partner with location, So the partner values are depend on location chosen.
    In my TEST1:
    --I just selected "Andhra pradesh" as location, In partner field drop down it is showing "Ragava" "Suman" "Sunitha" only.
    --Because these are only the values belong to "andhra pradesh" location and these are coming in alphabetical order only.
    TEST2:
    --Here I selected "Gujrat" as location, In partner field drop down it is showing "Avinash" "Mohan" "Suman" which are belong to "Gujrat" location, These are also in alphabetical order only.
    Hope this clears now. Still any query please post.
    Thanks,
    Swaroopa.

  • HT2470 Why does this not explain how to change the sort order?

    Why does this (i.e. support at Apple.com) not explain how to change the sort order? I can "arrange" by Date Modified for example but it won't let me switch to use most recent dates first. Also, what is Apple-speak for arrange versus sort anyway? It seems I used to be able to click on a column heading in finder and get a drop down arrow allowing me to change the sort sequence.

    Arrange roughly translates to "group the items in the folder." Sort is how each group is ordered. If you have arrange set to none, you can sort by anything. However, there is no way in the Arrange/Sort menu to choose the direction. The only way to do that is in the List View, and you must have Arrangement set to None.
    I've submitted an Enhancement Request to allow choosing sort direction from the Arrange/Sort menu, but I haven't ever gotten a response, which is good and bad. Good because they will often respond that they have considered it and don't plan on implementing. Bad in that they've haven't implemented it.

  • How change the sort order of searched items so last search item shows first. I DO NOT mean the order of search engines, but existing searches by down arrow key

    I want to be able to change the sort order of items I have already searched for in the search box. I want to be able to hit the down arrow key and see my previous searches in the order of last search showing first. At the moment I have no idea how it is sorting and it's very annoying to have to re-type a query I typed 5 minutes earlier but because I typed in another 10 since it is lost somewhere in the list. Can this be done, I have googled but did not find the topic anywhere. Just to clarify, I DO NOT MEAN the order of search engines (which is all that comes up in google), I mean the actual text typed in which has been saved in the drop down list.
    Thanks

    The "form fill" feature uses a "frecency" algorithm, frequency + recency, similar to the address bar autocomplete list.
    I found an extension that seems relevant, but the reviews are old so I'm not sure it's still working: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/searchbar-autocomplete-order/ Searchbar Autocomplete Order].
    But... is the autocomplete not working? I would expect that typing a couple characters of the earlier query would filter the list so you can easily select it? Or is the problem that the list doesn't remember enough searches for that?

  • How to change the Sort Order?

    Hi,
    I want to do a sorting on 3 fields in the order say for Eg:Name,Number,Dt.On the report I have grouped by Number so by default it appears in the sort list(Asec),So my sort order on the report looks like Number,Name,Dt but as per the requriment I want to sort it first by Name, then by Number, and then by Dt.
    Is there a work around for this...

    Try to insert a summary on name field in group footer like maximum(,).
    Now go to report>group sort expert>select all based on maximum(,)
    Now the report sorts based Name field instead of number field

  • How do I get Iphoto to preserve the sort order when I transfer an album?

    Here's my problem. I carefully sorted my album of 230 photos manually. Each photo was then numbered from 1 to 230.   Then I used IPhoto Library Manager to transfer this album someplace else -- to my desktop, to a thumb drive, to Dropbox---   In every case, when I did that, the photos themselves transfered just fine,  but the sort order I had so carefully constructed has fallen apart and cannot by retrieved. Even  when I  close and then reopen an Album I have transferred to my Desktop, it loses its sort order.  This is driving my crazy  because I need to transfer this album so that it preserves the slideshow I have designed for it. A slideshow, of course, demands preserving the order of the slides.
    In short, how can I preserve the sort order of an album when I transfer it out of one library to another?

    If you're transferring to another library, why are you exporting to the Finder (which is what Desktop, thumbdrive and DropBox are). This doesn’t understand manual sorting from iPhoto.
    Here's one (of several) way(s) to do what you want:
    Make an Album of the photos, then drag the pics into your preferred order.
    Then Photos Menu: Batch Change -> Set Title to Text "John's Birthday", for instance, and tick the box to append a number to each Photo. Now your photos are titled 'John's Birthday 001, John's Birthday 002 ... etc'
    Then File -> Export and in the Export dialogue set the Filename to "Use Title"
    Sort on Filename in the FInder and you end up with a folder full of images in the same order as the Album in iPhoto.

  • 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?

  • Change the sort order (ascending/descending) based on parameter field

    I have created a formula on a subreport to change sorting based on variables.
    select {?Pm-@Sorting}
    case "property_type_desc ASC" :
    {owned_property.property_type_desc}
    case "property_type_desc DESC" :
    {owned_property.property_type_desc}
    default:
    ({owned_property.property_type_cd}; )
    how can I change the sort order ascending and descending using the formula??
    Thanks, Jessica

    Try this
    1. Create a parameter with 2 default values in the picklist: Descending and Ascending.
    NOTE:
    In Crystal Reports version 5 or 6, it is not possible to have a pick a parameter value from a list. The user must enter a specific value, guided by the prompting text. For example : To Sort in Ascending order type A, to sort in Descending order type D.
    u2022 On the 'Insert' menu, click 'Parameter', then click 'New'.
    u2022 Type the name and prompting text for the parameter in the corresponding boxes.
    u2022 In the 'Type' box, click 'String'.
    u2022 Click 'Set Default'.
    u2022 In the 'Value to add' box, type 'Descending' then click '>' to move it to the 'Default Values' list.
    u2022 Repeat the above step for 'Ascending'.
    u2022 Click 'OK', then click 'OK' again to return to the report.
    2. Create 2 formulas based on the field you want to change the sort direction on:
    u2022 On the 'Insert' menu, click 'Formula', then click 'New'.
    u2022 Create this formula:
    @Asc
    If {?Parameter} = "Ascending" then
    u2022 Save this formula and close the Formula Editor. This brings you back to the Formula tab of the Insert Fields dialog box.
    u2022 Click 'New' and create this formula:
    @Des
    If {?Parameter} = "Descending" then
    u2022 Save this formula and close the Formula Editor.
    u2022 Click 'Close' to return to the report.
    4. Sort the report based on these two formulas.
    u2022 On the 'Report' menu, click 'Sort Records'.
    u2022 In the 'Report Fields' list, click {@Asc} and move it to the 'Sort Fields' list.
    u2022 Under 'Sort Direction', click 'Ascending'.
    u2022 In the 'Report Fields' list, click {@Des} and move it to the 'Sort Fields' list.
    u2022 Under 'Sort Direction', click 'Descending'.
    u2022 Click 'OK' to return to the report.
    Once you preview the report you will be prompted to select a parameter value, which will determine how the report is sorted.

  • How do I change the display order in the VPN menu in the status bar?

    Hello,
    How do I change the display order in the VPN menu in the status bar?
    (in the drop-down menu from this icon) ->
    Thanks.

    Hello. Perhaps this is because you are trying to arrange the order of many VPN services, since only one VPN service can be selected at once in System Preferences. In my original post, I did not mean that; I meant that I wanted to arrange the order of VPN configurations within a VPN service. In this screenshot, I have one VPN service only:
    And in the following one, it is shown that there are more than one VPN configurations within that VPN service:
    Furthermore, it was the order of VPN configurations that I wanted to change, not the order of VPN services. If you are trying to change the order of VPN services, I do not have a solution.
