How do I sort folder of jpegs by orientation?

I need to resize 10,000+ jpegs to a square format. I have set up separate Photoshop Action Scripts for the images that are Landscape orientation and Portrait orientation.
My question:
Is there a way to select only the portrait or landscape oriented photos so that I can place them in seperate folders to run the appropriate Photoshop script?
I have tried cmd-F > with a search attribute of 'Orientation' but that didn't give me the expected options.

With the folder open and active, set it to Icon view, then press Command-J - that will open View Options for that window. In the View Options window checkmark the item "Show Item Information". This will add the dimensions for the image underneath its name in the folder's window. You can use that info to determine its orientation.
I realize this works best for a modest amount of images; a folder with several thousand can be inconvenient to parse this way. On the other hand, if the extra info is considered to be part of the filename, it may make using a script easier (if x is larger than y, etc.).

Do I have to get all items in a folder and then sort them?
/Elin

I do not think there is a way to do that without add-ons
There are a couple of workarounds I am aware of
* Add the bookmarks manually in the bookmarks library and choose the position. That is using Show all bookmarks -> open required folder -> select a position and right click -> add new bookmark <br />Rather a slow and clumsy process
* Sort a folder and copy it. If you sort the folder contents then copy and paste them they remain in that order when pasted.
There are add-ons but I have not tried them. For example
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/simplesort-bookmarks/
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/auto-sort-bookmarks/
There will be others available and take note of the advice to backup bookmarks manaully.
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer#w_manual-backup]]_manual-backup

How do I sort photos WITHIN folder view?

Okay, I'll admit, to me, Adobe has always been defined as "too many features and too confusing to me," but I'll give it a shot.
I looked through help, etc. and I have a seemingly simple question - how do I sort photos, new to old, WITHIN folder view of the browser? I don't WANT to show ALL my photos, just folder by folder, oldest to new, NOT by filename!
This is a simple right-click context menu in Paint Shop Pro, has been for many versions. Why can't I find how/where to do this in Photoshop Elements? It's the kind of thing that makes simpletons like me keep running away from complex Adobe products.
Help me, SOMEONE, through this seemingly simple task and... I'll be most appreciative.

>how do I sort photos, new to old, WITHIN folder view of the browser? I don't WANT to show ALL my photos, just folder by folder, oldest to new, NOT by filename!
Well since folders are not the primary method of using the Photo Browser in Elements, I don't think that folder view has everything that you want.
If you want to look at a single folder in this sequence you could use the Instant Tag function to apply the tag to all photos in that folder, then use a Tag search by clicking on the box to the left of the tag that is the folder name and then choose oldest first while displaying just the photo files from that folder. This may sound long, but it takes lees time to do than it takes to type a description.

How do you sort Pics in Smart Folder? Photos App

How do you sort pics in a smart folder in the Photos App? Date, Name, etc.

Yes, when I do that it sorts the albums in the folder by name.
I may have misused terminology, I meant Smart Albums not smart folders, if this makes a difference.

How can I sort lines of data (alphabetically) in the new pages 5.0?

How can I sort lines of data (alphabetically) in the new pages 5.0?
It was very simple to do in the previou version of pages.

I'm not sure why people are torturing themselves with Pages 5 given the nearly universal outcry on this forum and the incredibly negative reviews elswhere, such as the App Store.
Pages 4.3 should still be in an iWorks folder within your Applications folder. Just use that.

Photos for iOS: How can i sort all of my albums automatically in alphabetical order

Hey there,
first off, why isn't there a a community for the new Photos app?
Anyway, here is my problem:
How can i sort my albums on the new Photos app on iOS?
I think it's not possible at the moment.
I am using the iCloud Photo library and uploadet all of my 15.000 photos from the last 15 years.
And because of that, i now have many many albums on Photos now.
Overall i love the new app and i love the iCloud Photo library, but i cannot sort my albums on the iOS app automatically in alphabetical order.
I can sort albums manual, but who wants that, when you have so many of them???
I have Photos on my Mac too and there i am able to do sort them in alphabetical order. But it is not adopted to iOS or the iCloud Web-App.
Because of that, i have a complete picture chaos on my iPhone and when i am looking for this one pic in that one album it takes me forever to find it.
So please Apple, fix this and we all can live happily ever after!
Thank you!

Moments in Photo are the new Events. T
here's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When the library was first migrated there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events are represented by an album in the folder. To open the sidebar if it's not open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window showing all of the albums.
The downside to this simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title while viewed in the Folder in the main window or in the sidebar. But they can be sorted manually.
Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

Save pdf to folder in JPEG / save aperture book to JPEG

Hello guys,
basically I want to save my created photo book in Aperture in the best possible quality.
I have read the FAQ on apertureexpert.com about "save pdf to folder in JPEG" and have also downloaded the script that was posted their but it did not work as expected.
http://www.apertureexpert.com/forum-user/post/1306850
The problem is that I can't really change any settings about the script (like change dpi to 300 like in the video below). Opening it in Automator does not bring the hoped features.
Basically I want to do exactly what is done in this video:

I might want to export the photos in TIFF too one day!
I am desperately trying to export my photo book in the best possible quality! I have spend the whole day trying to solve this problem without finding anything on google!
Would there be any possibilities to just download the complete "Save pdf to folder in TIFF" and "Save pdf to folder in JPEG" script somewhere? That would would be the optimal solution, a download link or simply an upload from someone how as the scripts that originally ware pre-installed on a mac. You can check if you have these under "Macintosh HD/Library/Pdf Services".
Thanks a lot for your help! I would really appreciate it!
Best,

It actually goes thru the motions and appears to be working, but ultimately the pages are not actually created or saved anywhere. I have tried over and over, numerous things, but in the end there are no actual pages created... its weird. I specify exactly where to save the pages, and when its done, there is nothing there....
Also, when I run the Play button on the "Save PDF to folder as JPEG" in automator, it encounters an error at the "Move Finder Items", the step where it would actually place or save the JPEGs to that location.... I can not seem to figure out what went wrong, as it did work before and I don't know what I could have done to cause an error...

How do I sort data in columns using Pages

How do I sort data in columns (alphabetically) using Pages?

If you are referring to text or numbers in a column (not table), then get the free Service plug-in WordService, from Devon Technologies. Put it in the
/Users/yourlogin/Library/Services folder location.
Select your data to be sorted. From the Pages menu > Services > Sort Ascending will do the trick. This will work with Pages ’09 and Pages v5.2 or later, as well as Apple Mail, TextEdit, etc.
The WordService files include a PDF (Read Me) that describes the services included with the package.
The Service items will only appear in the Services submenu when you have selected your data prior to sort. If these WordService items do not appear in the Services menu as they should per the preceding sentence, then you will need to enable them.
System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Services. Scroll through the right hand list of services until you encounter Sort Ascending and ensure that it is selected.
If you were referring to sorting a column of data in a table:
Pages ’09
Select all cells containing your unordered data. In the Table Inspector, under Edit Rows & Columns, choose Sort Ascending.
Pages v5.2
Select cells as before. In the Table heading (A, B, C, etc.) when you roll over the letter, a down-arrow appears. Click, and choose Sort Ascending from the drop down menu.

Exporting album pages to folder as JPEG...not working

I am a professional photographer and use aperture to deign my books. Since I have upgraded aperture I am now unable to export my album pages to a folder as a jpeg. I can only export them as PDF's through the mail program which greatly decreases the image quality. Below is the error message that I get.
I keep doing aperture updates thinking they will fix the problem, but they don't fix it.
Can anybody help me?

How do you do the export "album pages to a folder as a jpeg"?
For me it works fine, when I use "Print > Print to pdf > Save PDF to folder as jpeg": Aperture 3.3.1, MacOS X 10.7.4
Where is it different for you?

"Save PDF to folder as JPEG.workflow"

...is now missing from my library/PDF services folder.
I use Aperture to design my books, which I have printed by Asuka and other vendors. I set up workflows to export the books at the appropriate DPI (271 for Asuka, 300 for the flush mount albums I do).
When the the JPEG's weren't showing up in the folder I tried to save to I checked my Library/PDF services folder to find the "Save PDF to folder as JPEG.workflow" missing.
Should I re-install Aperture from the disk? If I do so how will it affect my library?
Thanks

Installing Aperture again will not affect your library, so there is no risk doing that.

How do I sort by file type?

I was wondering how I can sort by file type? I have a bunch of .moi and .mod files in a directory and want yo delete the .moi files. If I could sort by type, then it would just be a matter of highlighting those and deleting. I tried sorting by kind, but since they are seen as Unix Executable files by the OS, it sorts them but not by .moi or .mod. Thanks in advance for your help.
MAC OS 10.6.8

I don't believe you can sort by extension. However, what you can do is to type .moi into the search field at the top of the Finder window where you see those files. That will initially show all .moi files on your entire computer. At the top of the displayed search results will the the text "Search:" followed by three choices. "This Mac" should be selected, but the name of the folder you were looking in will be the second choice... click that one. That will cause the search results to contain only files from that folder, containing the text ".moi", which should be the ones you're interested in deleting.

How do I sort LR4 Folders so newest photos are top of page instead of bottom?

How do I sort LR4 Folders so newest photos are top of page instead of bottom? It makes sense to me that the most recent photos, the ones I just downloaded, should be at the top of the Library page, not the bottom. How can I reverse the order so the newest are at the top?

SJClemens wrote:
The placement of newest folders at the bottom of the list instead of the top has always annoyed me--it's just not logical in my book.
I don't think Lightroom does this quite as stated - it sorts folders aphabetically, independent of folder "age". Granted if you use numerical dates that have most significant component first, and use same number of digits for each component, then it works out to newest at bottom.
I have (and like) using folders as my primary organizational scheme. I also use metadata for scaring up images for various purposes too.
But I name folders so they are ordered how I want them (I use a numerical prefix whose primary purpose is to define ordering).
Granted it can be tricky if you want newest first, since that means you have to "reserve" lower alpha-numbers for "newer" photos.
For example, if first folder of the year is 001, then folders (newest at bottom) might be:
2011
001 asdf
002 qwerty
132 I shoot too much...
2012
001 foo
002 bar
but if you want newest first, I dunno - especially tricky since you may want to add older years as well as newer. Maybe start at 500, and reserve older and newer slots.
499 2013
500 2012
501 2011
I must say, this seems pretty yucky to me, but it would accomplish your goal.
I'd be inclined to get used to the present ordering, but maybe submit a folder sorting reversal request, like you can do now for images a-z vs. z-a:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/new
I mean, you can use collections instead of folders for organization, but collections have the same problem, if you have a hierarchy - they will be alphabetically ordered (ascending) too.

How do you sort the safari "Bookmarks Bar" bookmarks

how do you sort the safari "Bookmarks Bar" bookmarks

Here is the workaround for sorting your bookmarks - you don't have to do it manually as suggested in the previous answer here. This is from a 2006 page at Hints.Macworld.com
"One thing that bugs me is that there is no option in Safari to alphabetize bookmarks. I had a crazy idea about how to accomplish this, and it seems to work. Hopefully I'm not missing something more obvious.
What I did was open the Bookmarks window (Bookmarks: Show All Bookmarks), put the links I wanted to alphabetize into a folder, and then dragged that folder into the Finder. The Finder alphabetizes the bookmarks; you can then just drag the folder back into the Bookmarks window. You probably have to set the Finder to arrange files by name before it will work. Hope this helps!
[robg adds: When you drag the folder back, you'll now have two folders, the original and the sorted one. Just delete the original, and you're set. You can also do this without first creating a Safari folder. Just select all the bookmarks to be alphabetized, drag them into a new folder in the Finder, open that folder (make sure it's set to sort by name or use column view), then drag the now-sorted bookmarks back into Safari's Bookmarks window. Again, you'll have duplicates, so just delete the originals (which will be grouped above the newly-placed list). I wonder if any of this is scriptable...]"
If you're like me and you like to keep all of your bookmarks in folders in the Bookmarks bar, then from the Bookmarks window you would open the Bookmarks Bar in a window of its own before doing the above.
